Funny how everyone wants to nitpick the one big flaw and ignore the other cool things...

Hey monkeyman, it will take a little time for some users to get used to any change for better or for worse. But I am excited. After e3 I lost some faith in Nintendo;) but the miiverse update and the huge Splatoon update I feel that they are still suporting the wii u with solid updates that hopefully will transfer to the NX.

"Nintendo's "Miiverse Redesign" adds Unnecessary Complication where it isn't Needed"

Oi, where to begin. The "isn't needed" is implied when you say "unnecessary." The capitalization is all over the place. Is "Unnecessary Complication" something's name? Or are you capitalizing the title per standard, in which case it should be "Nintendo's "Miiverse Redesign" Adds Unnecessary Complication Where It Isn't Needed". Also, "Miiverse Redesign" in inverted commas? Are you sarcastically refuting the validity of this as a redesign (it is certainly a redesign, if so)? Or are you quoting the source material, because I believe they more strongly refer to it as a makeover?

Please learn from this.

Congrats! You win the todays N4G Grammar Award. You get... to... have contributed nothing to the conversation! You can now rest assured people everyone on N4g now knows of your achievement of contributing less than any Nintendoomed, DX12, PS Wins and "...well my PC runs it better" posts on N4G for the day!

LightofDarkness3609d ago

Oh I see, and under your grand new N4G contribution awards scheme, where does your self serving little narcissistic diatribe place? Do you have anything to add or do you just sit in the corner silently delighting yourself by pointing out how pointless you perceive others' actions? Don't worry, at least one person thinks you're super funny who doesn't also happen to be you.

This is a community driven site. Participating in a meaningful and helpful manner includes pointing out things like this, as doing so generally encourages the contributors to be more mindful in future and prevents poorly written dreck from decorating the front page. But we could just follow your clearly, smugly superior example and lead with the "ah, f**k it and f**k you" standard you so triumphantly uphold.

You also lose marks for groan inducingly overdone attempts at what appears to pass for sarcastic humour and wit in your world.

Nevers0ft3609d ago

Well, you're right and (much to my chagrin because I was really hoping to find something) your grammar is also impeccable. Might I suggest however that you adopt a slightly less condescending tone when correcting people, lest you come across as a bit of a jerk?

Please learn from this :)

For those of you who are concerned, I've contributed nothing to the conversation.

Trolltroll3609d ago

They need to ads zoom for posts or some fullscreen options plz. Viewing the awsome miiverse drawings in 1/10 sucks. Other than that it is a obvious upgrade. The play journal will be nice like trophys or achievements with a personal touch.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Online is the New Miiverse

With its new ways of both creating and sharing user-made content, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has become the unexpected successor to Nintendo’s beautiful disaster of a social media experiment Miiverse.

Miiverse was insanity, and it was hilarious. It had a super strange community, there’s a bunch of YouTube videos about it.
I have smash ultimate, but haven’t checked out the new update. I’ll for sure take a look.

Snookies122246d ago (Edited 2246d ago )

I'm interested to check it out as well. Haven't played Smash in a while now... I think it was my issues with having multiple people play at once. The controller drifting and input lag was terrible. Not sure if they fixed that yet, but it was a pain to play when I had 3-4 friends on at the same time.

Gemmol2246d ago

Send your switch in not everyone have that issue, only one that listed that others experience is drifting issue but input lag and playing with 4 people do not have any issues

A Miiverse Eulogy: So Long to the First True Social Video Game Platform

The Miiverse gave myself, and so many others, a platform unlike any console had ever seen before. For once, our reactions to games, both about them generally and in the moment-to-moment, were given life in the games themselves. The Miiverse's concept was novel, fresh, new. It felt like the first true social video game platform. And it's a shame that it was for a console that hardly anyone actually played.
