Nintendo discussion thread

well actually the real nintendo switch supports using that USB-C port as a video out, maybe the nintendo switch lite can do that too? though what money you would've saved on getting a switch lite would be immediately just be getting sucked up on an expensive USB-C hub
 
I just leave my switch in docked mode and use a pro controller. They fucked up by making the switch lite when they should have just made The Switch Box that removes the stupid portability bullshit and joycons. Package the fucker with a pro controller and you would sell millions due to it being real fucking cheap without the screen and other bullshit to jack up the price.

parts and assembly of the switch's electronics minus the screen and joycons would come to around 50 dollars with the plastic housing.

Sell that for 99 bucks and they would fly off the shelves.
 
I just wish Nintendo would drop gimmicks and just release an honest to God console because while the slowdown in Link's Awakening isn't game breaking, it's pretty abysmal that something that looks like a brightly lit indie PS3 title stutters like this.

Talking about indie PS3 title isn't 3d Dot Heroes the same kind of style game?

i think they were trying to copy the 2DS's success in a way, except the 2DS, once you got past its lack of being foldable, was just all around more comfortable to use (even though it doesn't look like it) and had a joystick nub that could handle the stress of playing things like smash brothers without being destroyed. Plus it put the system into the double digit range for price and that was huge.

They should've gone with something like 'Switch Retro' and ship it with a modernized SNES controller, and have it come with some of the NES/SNES game offerings of their online service that would essentially serve as an advertisement for it while giving new buyers something to play right out of the box.

They clearly did jack shit to fix the drifting issues. People are already reporting Lites starting to drift within days of purchase. Except this time you can't just get a new pair a joycons.
You know it's real bad when fucking Arlo gets upset by it. This is something that has a 99% failure rate on all switch lites.

The man who defended the wii-u for 5 years only to turn around and say it's shit right when NEW PRODUCT TO CONSUME was announced to replace it.

And what's worse is that he defended the wii-u but never got past the tutorial stage for MH3U which outside of Xenoblade Chronicles X was the only other worthwhile game for the system.
 
Mario kart 8 was a half finished game
Bayonetta 1 and 2 were not that good
Mario 3d World is for infidels and not a real mario game like SMB 1-3 and World
Star Fox is a fucking travesty
Tokyo Mirage Sessions was retarded and worse than Tokyo Xanadu
New Super Mario bros and the Luigi expansion were only suitable for people who clap when they see things they know
Wii-U was the first Nintendo system since the Virtual boy to have no exclusive Zelda game for it.
Wonderful 101 was fucking tedious to complete

Whatever, fanboy. Also, what about Donkey Kong and Mario Maker? And how the fuck was Mario Kart 8 “half-finished”? It has about the same amount of content as the other Mario Karts. You seriously give off the vibe of a disgruntled Sony fanboy.

That battle mode was fucking pathetic and the lack of block fort even in the Deluxe Switch version is a fucking crime on top of making MORE DLC after releasing the Deluxe version which was supposedly the completist of complete. Excessive DLC killed both Mario Kart and CTR for me.

I never really cared for Mario Maker, because the whole basis of it is reducing mario to a series of assets when there hasn't really been a true sequel on par with the original 4 games yet. In general it made mario feel soulless this was especially true after they bumrushed 3 NSMB games within a few years time and none of them are really fondly remembered.

Tropical Freeze makes me wonder why they were able to make 3 classics during the SNES era but struggled to crap out a single DKC game within the same amount of time. More work was involved with the SNES games because while everything was 3d rendered they had to convert shit into sprites and early texturing and modeling software was not as easy to use as today. Like they could have done two new DKC games for the wii-u at least.

As far as 2d platfromers went, I liked Rayman legends better than both any of the Donkey Kong or mario offerings on the wii-u.

It always feels like you just put Nintendo down so you can deepthroat Sony even harder.

Sony has given people what they want Shenmue 3, Final Fantasy 7 remakes, and half life 3 but they're calling it Death Stranding.

I mean you pull out so many Mythical Wants and promote them it makes you wonder why nintendo can't do the same to the series they own and operate.

I mean, Nintendo gives people what they want as well, but I guess if they don’t suit your personal tastes to perfection, they might as well be worthless.

They only really do this for Smash brothers.

Nobody fucking wanted Labo. And like they fucked up Star Fox pretty hard multiple times in astounding ways.

Xenoblade is probably their only recent series that has routinely delivered. Stuff like Pikmin or Chibi Robo fell flat on their face and never took off.

At least you didn't slight Pikmin 3, otherwise we'd have words.
