Kotaku: When I first saw Nintendo's official Xbox 360-ish Pro controller I thought, "You know, I would probably like this better if it featured the same controller layout as the 360 one." Apparently Mad Catz feels the same way. This is the FPSPro, a third party Wii U controller developed completely independently of Nintendo.
It should come as no surprise that Nintendo is pretty protective regarding its IP. Going after emulators, ROM hacks, and reproductions is one thing, but it looks like the firm is starting to aim its sights on something rather surprising: sheet music.
this reminds me of that nintendo facebook social media question where they asked people what their favourite nintendo song was and people posted yt links. EVERY SINGLE ONE WAS TAKEN DOWN
You want to kill a party fast just invite Nintendo. But we are talking about a company who took down pictures of a strategy guide that has never appeared in the west. You don't see Square taking down music or sheet music to Aerith's theme, Tifa's theme, June Mermaid. Memorable tunes stick with fans to great games. Nintendo games have fans that have been routed since the NES. People have Youtube vids showing how to play Zelda's lullaby on piano, violin or my favorite the harp. Nintendo taking down sheet music or those curious about a Japanese strategy guide makes Nintendo look like an asshole to those fans.
Out of spite those people should now out put all that music in a torrent upload and share it (I will seed for them🤣) Then email Nintendo the link to it lol. Good luck taking down a torrent. Torrents and Usenet is the only way to get around anything Nintendo tries to take down because they can't. This is the way to preserve games and game music, without anyone telling you otherwise.
The latest Switch firmware update kills off support for the Elon Musk-owned social media company.
Nintendo Has Acquired Shiver Entertainment From Embracer Group
Great news it shows that Nintendo intends to continue developing ports of AAA games to its next gen platform
Buying studios from embracer now is a great deal, they must be dirt cheap at this point, Nintendo is a opportunist, they wait until someone fall so they get their best deal
I hope someone buys Piranha Bytes, their future isn't looking good right now. I love their RPGs, they're janky as f***, but they have heart and soul.
Nintendo saw the Mortal Kombat 1 Switch port and were like, "Yeah, these guys are worth acquiring."
You can't make this crap up lol
Lets not give all the cred to the xbox the 360 pad looks like a dream cast controller + bumber buttons and 2nd
Yea pc's were about long befroe the xbox and i was using this style of control pc gaming before any console came out with this style
Xbox 360 = GameCube.
Here's what I don't understand. A lot of gamers complained about the WiiRemote not being for the core gamer. When Nintendo then release a pro controller for the core gamer; it's just copying the other pads. LULZ EPIC FAILZ!1
Seriously, what's up with that?
AGREE WITH NATHANEXPLOSION!!
the 360 controller is by far the most comfortable to hold, but hell...i can hardly play with that thing. ive had multiple controllers over the years that develop unresponsive dpads. also, the face buttons just arent as easy to press as the ps3s. far too brittle and tactile. i dont understand why they didnt just take a few notes from the way sony and nintendo had designed their buttons.
