In this episode of Playeressence X Nintendo, Furious Francis discusses big Nintendo news like a Pikachu themed 3DS, free eShop games, Lego City Undercover reviews, and his current love affair with Fire Emblem Awakening. Not to mention we have user questions. Check out the show.
Game developers have already started to confirm that they will support the Nintendo Switch 2 with their future titles.
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.
Look at how they handled Nintendo games being streamed or uploaded on YouTube in the past. They killed Yuzu and Citra even when they had nothing to do with ToTK being leaked, not to mention it was basically unplayable on emulation the week it was leaked. Smash Bros tournament, that was fairly recent. They shut down their online services without any care for purchases made. I bought a switch after skipping their last 2 consoles and handhelds but I don't plan on buying anything Nintendo in the future. They take things to the extremes, they legitimately hate their fans. They're honestly right up there with the likes of Acti, EA, and Ubi, only difference is that they disguise themselves as being family friendly all the while being shady.
Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
Its nice to see some good news. I'm surprised this wasn't failed and actually made it through. Maybe there is hope yet.
The goods game are about to come out and sales are going to jump much to dismay of naysayerss.
I can't say that I'm too interested in the Pikachu 3DS but there are still plenty of games I'm interested in that are about to come out. This more than I can for the other hardware platforms at the moment.
I'm not looking forward to "DLC" in Smash Brothers at all. Its nice that they deal with sitters though.
Though, he reminds me. I need to buy Fire Emblem. I was going to get it the other day, but got Castlevania instead. I still hate DLC though.
I hope droughts like this don't happen anymore.
Freaking love this guys podcast. Finally I can listen to another podcast other the Super NPC (ign)
