Remember that one time when Nintendo announced that they had shifted the bulk of their development resources over to the Switch... When the Wii U was still en vogue?
Four years later, all that hard work is finally paying off. Witness the ample amount of bare-bones remasters and re-releases. Including the "classic" 6 year old port of Super Mario Bros U - which is retailing for the same price as a AAA game.
Serious question - are you getting paid for defending and praising Switch so much or do you own Nintendo stocks? Because i see you under every Nintendo or Switch-related post. To you, all Nintendo games and/or decisions are "the best": - "Mario kart 8 deluxe is by far the best"; - "(Super Smash Bros)'s by far the best fighting game ever"; - "(New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe) is brilliant"; - "Pokémon Let's go, in many ways, is better than the main games"; - "Regardless of your opinion of Smash brothers , it's the best fighting game there is"; - "Youre speaking like BOTW isn't one of the highest rated games ever and isn't absolutely incredible which it is."; - "I just think this minor issue of Nintendos online is just another reason for all the haters to jump on the Nintendo hate bandwagon." and "So Ita a problem to sign in once a week? There's millions of hotspots all over the world even if youre on the go. I don't see this as a problem at all really." [it's how NES games on Switch are available only for 7 days without revalidating through Internet]; - "I personally adore Skyward sword. The boss battles are insane. Best ever in the series"; - "So many people completely missed the point with BOTW. Fortunately though most gamers can appreciate the brilliance.";
- "It was about the same amount. At least the WiiU had some genuinely amazing games, the Vita had a handful of mediocre games."; - "The SWITCH is capable of outperforming ANY ps3 or 360 games in every aspect"; - "The popularity of Nintendos IP will ensure they remain the worlds largest publisher of games during this streaming era"; - "Switch is the new emperor of the land of the land of the rising sun".
I hope you do understand that Switch is a piece of plastic that can't love you back and Nintendo doesn't even know you exist.
P. S.: Not a personal attack. P. P. S.: I do enjoy my PS4, but i'm not saying every exclusive there is a masterpiece. Didn't like Spiderman that much (really good game, just got it later and heard too much praise before playing) and Knack was meh.
It is mad there are people like this, that refuse to acknowledge anything negative about their preferred console. I tend to be more or a PS4 guy, but I understand there are always issues that Sony need to amend. It's like that King Noctis user on this site, he has to defend Microsoft if it were his last breath.
I love my Switch too, but there are some serious problems with it for me, mainly relating to the online side of things. Don't give huge corporations a free pass.
"Because i see you under every Nintendo or Switch-related post."
Maybe because he's a Switch fan. That seems to be the most logical conclusion.
Here's another serious question if he's in every Switch article, why is it he has to defend the Switch in every one of those?
It's so funny that a person is now getting ridiculed for liking games and a system and being asked if they're paid for by that company.
I wonder if the same could be said for others who constantly attack and shit on a console for these actual fans to constantly feel the need to defend it.
Attacking a console seems to not have any employment benefit potential on this site for some reason.
"P. P. S.: I do enjoy my PS4, but i'm not saying every exclusive there is a masterpiece."
I don't think Eddie has either, or are you required to say something bad about the system you prefer playing games on?
I mean this is a piece of plastic, it'll do the same thing regardless whether you talk bad about it or not on N4G.
Read gangsta reds comment. My real life friends mostly don't share the same enthusiasm for Nintendo and games as I do so I come to Thai site to discuss with equally enthusiastic people about our hobby.
It's the trolls that are the problem here not me and you won't be able to convince me otherwise so go away 😊
It's also incredibly sad that you've gone through pages of my comment history in some poor atempt to try and annoy me? Don't know own what you're trying to achieve, but either join the debate or don't comment at all.
» "Here's another serious question if he's in every Switch article, why is it he has to defend the Switch in every one of those?" Why are you asking me? My guess was, he's on a payroll, that's why i asked and gave some (in my opinion) proof.
» "It's so funny that a person is now getting ridiculed for liking games and a system and being asked if they're paid for by that company." It was a serious question, i wasn't trying to ridicule @EddieNX. If it sounded like that, that wasn't my intention.
» "I wonder if the same could be said for others who constantly attack and shit on a console for these actual fans to constantly feel the need to defend it." It absolutely can! But in my opinion, if someone's saying "{X} is good/bad because {A}, {B}, {C}", i feel like it's fine, it's an opinion with something to back it up. But if someone is saying "{X} is good/bad" without any arguments, that's bad.
For example, i, personally, don't like Breath of the Wild. I played it for 3-4 hours and i do understand that might not be enough for the full analysis. But i felt like game was discouraging me from exploring the world and i do like to explore (world was looking good, just too empty). I got that feeling because i was exploring the game and found a flame blade (on top of stomp in the middle of some "lake") and was like "That's cool!". But after killing like 5 enemies, it just shattered. Why should i go out of my way, trying to find something interesting, if it just shatters after few uses?
And about "feel the need to defend" - look at the original comment in this post. Everything said by @prankster101 was true, yet @EddieNX just says he's butthurt. Kind of useless defence adds nothing to the conversation, in my opinion.
» "I don't think Eddie has either, or are you required to say something bad about the system you prefer playing games on?" No, absolutely not. I like PC (Steam, to be specific) and Sony (PS3 and PS4), but you don't see me defending them on every occasion, especially when they screw up (like Valve with Artifact or Sony with Playstation Classic). Nintendo has screw ups as well, but i think, if people will don't stop defending Nintendo, it wouldn't fix the issues (like with online, for instance).
» "I mean this is a piece of plastic, it'll do the same thing regardless whether you talk bad about it or not on N4G." I wholeheartedly agree!

» "you're undermining most people on this site bud" How so? Who am i "undermining"?
» "People are here to debate and discuss about games, why are you surprised???" You also "Someone's butthurt over the fact that the Switch is brilliant and a huge success." - i don't see a debate, do you?
» "It's also incredibly sad that you've gone through pages of my comment history in some poor atempt to try and annoy me?" Is reading your own comments annoy you? It was a small slice of your comment history, to give my original message some context. And so people wouldn't think i'm just imagining stuff.
Technically it’s 2 games in one with some extras. Most people didn’t have a WiiU so ports of old games are a smart move because people didn’t play games that were worth playing.
I’m not going to bitch about the price of a game I don’t really want. Or go to a PlayStation classic article and complain about paying $100 for a poorly executed and mediocre PS1 lineup I don’t really care about.
1. Left Alive 2. Judgment 3. MediEvil 4. TLOU Part II 5. Ghost of Tsushima 6. Death Stranding 7. Days Gone 8. Dreams 9. MLB The Show 10. Concrete Genie 11. Final Fantasy VII Remake 12. Shenmue III 13. Nioh 2 14. Babylon's Fall …
1. Core Pokemon 2. Luigi’s Mansion 3. Animal Crossing 4. Bayonetta 3 5. SMTV 6. Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 7. Town 8. Daemon X Machima 9. Fire Emblem 3 House 10. Yoshi Crafted World 11. Travis Strike Back 12. The Snack World: Trejarers Gold 13. Grandia I + II HD Remaster 14. Yo-kai Watch 4
And I could have sworn Shenue III, Left Alive, and Babylon's Fall will also be on PC. Or are console exclusive games finally be considered as exclusives now on N4G?
^This. One of the great things about the Wii, Wii U and 3DS is access to so many retro titles from a variety of systems including but not limited to those by Nintendo. Imagine a more complete VC that includes a variety of console and handheld titles from the past. I am, and it saddens me that it's a pipe dream.
I’m tired of Nintendo pricing their released games at full price, especially in the face of other rereleased games that get built from the ground up yet are still budget priced.
There will be no Virtual Console while Classic Minis are in production. From a marketing point of view, it would be a dumb move to offer the games on Switch while the Minis are selling so well.
I'm just hoping that they get past the N64 mini and start putting games up for Switch, but who can tell but Nintendo?
As much as I adore Xenoblade Chronicles on the Wii, it’s a game that would benefit from an HD update, or an overhaul altogether. The music alone is reason enough to play through it
Yes the butthurt is strong when it comes to Nintendo being a success. The switch is amazing, it’s doing amazingly well, well done Nintendo just bring Gamecube, Dreamcast, more Sega Arcade stuff please.

Just make Virtual Console a thing on Switch already

It is unfortunate that Nintendo puts more effort into stopping ROM sites rather than making their products more available.
