Nintendo Switch - Happy Switchmas Everyone!
Retro_Link replied to Serebii's topic in Nintendo Gaming
I realise it's not a TV spot. There's no ad break in the world that would accommodate that. I think HD rumble is a fantastic evolution, and if anyone's aware of past comments I've always hyped it up. I can think of great ways it can be used. It's the other superfluous tech I'm thinking of. -

Urgh 1,2,Switch is just embarrassing... It's a bit crazy that ad is 50% longer than the reveal video, I'd totally lost interest by 1,2,Switch. I'm kinda disappointed that I won't be jumping on the Switch bandwagon anytime soon, but I also think in 5 years time we'll be looking back at the Switch and wondering why Nintendo bothered to put so much unnecessary tech in the controllers that went completely to waste. -

Honestly I think the vast majority of these controller colours look horrendous, and would look even worse attached to the Switch or the black charger. There's something about the Neon Red/Blue that works on the tablet itself mind you. -

I don't think that's even a thing. Controllers that do have analogue triggers are as light as anything - PS3 controller is ridiculously so. -

Thought Snipperclips was a launch game, so yeah much needed. Couldn't believe what a Wind Waker rip-off Oceanhorn looked - and not in a good way. Can't see anyone here buying it honestly. -
I'm going to try and muster up the courage to play this sometime. I wasn't sure until I just watched the Easy Allies review. It's going to be one hell of a challenge, but it looks too good of an experience to miss. I don't know when I'll get around to buying it, but I do know this gonna be tough.

Possibly as with Titanfall, the game just wouldn't fit on the console? -
Crystal Dynamics off of Tomb Raider and Eidos Montreal of Deus Ex........ Consider me pumped!

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Wii U / Switch
Retro_Link replied to darkjak's topic in Nintendo Gaming
Tbf didn't they say they started developing the Switch version 1 year ago. I would have thought it could have been implemented, however I'm sure the rumble in there is used sufficiently, and like I said I wasn't even expecting it. It's right that they prioritise everything else. I hope they haven't cut out to much and it's their full vision. Has there been any word on this? I haven't really been following to closely. -
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Wii U / Switch
Retro_Link replied to darkjak's topic in Nintendo Gaming
Just read that Zelda doesn't have HD rumble. Unfortunately having done so has now made me really want it in the game despite previously giving no thought to it. It'd be great to feel Epona through the reigns, varying weights/directions of impact on your sword and shield - and no matter how gimmicky I always enjoyed 'feeling' the bow and arrows in Wii Sports Resort. So many possibilities for HD rumble with puzzles and bosses one would imagine. -

Could someone delete the last couple of pages... What the actual fuck. Also: How awesome would it feel to have a clip unload in your hand and slam a new one back in with HD rumble. -
Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi (December 2017)
Retro_Link replied to Dog-amoto's topic in General Chit Chat
No one speculated Revenge of the Sith was about one Sith lord. The Last Jedi probably encompasses a range of things... the story of how the last Jedi were wiped out by Kylo Ren, how Luke became quite possibly the last Jedi knight, and the story of Luke and Rey as the last. Not a fan of the title tbh. -
Nintendo Switch - Happy Switchmas Everyone!
Retro_Link replied to Serebii's topic in Nintendo Gaming
Yeah the red/blue Switch is strangely appealing. I wonder if someone at Nintendo wasn't concentrating when putting Red/Blue joycons back on the early console and had a eureka moment :p I think Mario needs a lot more development work and had no chance of making launch regardless. Let it cook. -

Dude... now you're asking @kav82 to go to the post office! Make sure you sell it 'collect from seller' only Kav Although you will still have to answer the door x -
I get this message when I go to add normal Driveclub to my basket: So I'm guessing the PS Plus version is the only version open to me.
-
And also, how are they different?
-
I think I should get this. Do you just buy the PlayStation Plus version now? I can't see the launch version on the PSN store.
-
Might as well assume Switch is dead in the water then. Honestly what's the point of such negative discussions.

My Nintendo Japan get to choose their colour combinations... I quite like the idea of having Red and Blue as the backs of the controllers and grey on the front. -

Retro_Link replied to Serebii's topic in Nintendo Gaming
Sorry to weigh in on the controller talk so late, but thb the prospect of buying a DS4 and a Pro Controller don't even compare. The DS4 is the only controller you need for the PS4, and it comes bundled with one. Want a second one for a friend, then yeah pay whatever price you can find for one. With the Switch if you want a traditional controller you have to pay for it, again at whatever price you can find. It's a different situation. It's an expensive additional - necessary - purchase for some. -
The Legend of Zelda: Art & Artifacts New Book
Retro_Link replied to Ike's topic in General Gaming Discussion
Honestly I'm very underwhelmed by these Zelda books. This one for example seems to just contain exactly what you'd find if you Googled Zelda artwork for each of the games - there seems to be very little/next to no original artwork in them from what I've seen of people flicking through them and promotional images. It's all artwork that's been seen a thousand times.
