PowerUp! - "Bandai Namco has officially revealed the Dark Souls Remastered changes. These are what players can expect to find when they boot up the remaster in May."
Hanzala from eXputer: "As Nintendo takes out 20 years' worth of stuff from Garry's Mod, I watch in shock, thinking why it continues to hurt and discourage its fans."
The irony that some of the most disgusting business practices come from companies like Disney or Nintendo, i can't even begin to understand what terrible damage was Garrys Mod making to Nintendo bottom line, imho they're getting pretty nervous about where they're heading in the future, handhelds are no longer something exclusive to Nintendo, from Steam Deck to many others, now you can play the latest games and pay a fraction of the price on Steam sales, so it's up to their exclusives, which just on their own would make hard to justify purchasing a closed overpriced hardware with outrageous price policies (Super Mario Odyssey is still 60 euro 6 years later!), and as a home console they're always underperforming compared to Sony or Xbox.
i cam guarantee you, that their exclusives alone is what drives switch sales. they sell in the 10s of millions of copies.
nintendo created their franchises to be sort of nostalgia driven, exclusive only on nintendo.
people will always buy the pkmn games as they always bring in new younger fans amd is family friendly
mario kart, the same thing, mario games in general.
zelda games are system sellers. animal crossing for the casual gamers.
nintendo doesnt need third vame devs essentially. they made sure with the switch and the limitations that they looked more to pc ps and xbox.
its sad, but nintendo is more than fine with what they're doing. they positioned themselves to appeal to the more casual gamers.
but to your point, im not sure why they're doing this rly.

Two 3DO games recently reissued by Limited Run Games, Plumbers Don't Wear Ties and D, appear to have a major problem, according to customers.
D was a great, atmospheric horror game. It was worth the rental back in the day. Also, Limited Run Games sucks.
LRG are just glorified overpriced reproductions.... and now they can't even get that last part right. I make better repros using my own stack of CD-R.
Just don’t. 3DO games were the worst. Imagine paying premium prices for a dog-crap version of a game. The era of barely trying or understanding their own tech and charging asinine prices… 3DN0. It’s best that you don’t admit that you had one of these.
The 3DO was ahead of its time and one of the first to enter the 32 bit console space. Yes FMV games are awful, but at the time there was a real thirst for games to look like movies. Removing the FMV games the 3DO had Gex, a solid Myst port, and was often the best place to play non-SNK (best on NEO GEO) near arcade perfect arcade ports. Their downfall was poor marketing and a high price point for a time when consoles were considered to be kids toys.
It was certainly superior to the “64 bit” Jaguar, which was falsely advertised as stronger hardware and had one of the worst console controllers in history.
Road Rash was crack on the 3DO. I remember many hours playing Slam n Jam with friends, this game was also not possible on 16 bit and a loose arcade port of Run n Gun. Amazing game.
Also, Starfield and Return Fire were amazing too. They should release any of these games instead of whatever those games are in this article lol.
I went from playing Mortal Kombat, Starship Heroes and Earthworm Jim on Genesis to that amazing version of Road Rash, Night Trap, and Sewer Shark. The game that came with the 3DO, Crash and Burn, was also super underrated. It had a better version of Madden than the 16 but consoles and a superior FIFA too that made the 3DO the envy of all my friends back then. I still have it! Neo Geo was the rich kid console, I sold my Genesis and Sega CD to pay for the 3DO and didn’t regret it one bit. Then PlayStation came along and took over.
Also, this was a golden age of gaming. New consoles were an experience that just isn't the same today. The 3DO day one blew my mind as a child and probably had more must play games year one than Xbox Series consoles today.
Limited Run Games makes me sick. The prices they ask are ridiculous and then the whole burning discs instead of pressing them is pretty disgusting. This is a company that takes their customers for a ride and demands extortion level prices for a product, like we’re talking 2x to 3x more than MSRP.
"Players can no longer summon ally phantoms consecutively when in combat with enemy phantoms."
This shit was needed so badly in Dark souls 3, especially as an invader. So many gankers, even now.
For the primarily solo player - overall pretty minor tweaks/improvements it seems (outside of the resolution bumps). Would love to get this for Switch, but passing up on the 60fps... likely PS4 for me
Never really played Dark Soul due to other priorities... spending three years playing destiny 1. Now that im freed from that addiction, i can enjoy other drugs... i mean games.
If this was a remake from the ground up I wouldn't of bat an eye and bought it day one... But REMASTERS are getting out of hand this gen, we're like 4 years in they're still releasing them!
