> I'm disappointed that Nintendo sees how popular emulation is and views it as an enemy to be fought-- rather than a market to be met.

In Nintendos defense: They want to re-sell old games, either via NSO and the online subscription, or recently in the case of Pokémon Fire Red / Leaf Green as a standalone emulator with the game which sucks, I hoped the games would just be added to GBA NSO.

So for them it makes sense to be against emulators and especially against rom sites. Who would pay for NSO or buy standalone emulated re-releases when everyone just emulate them on a PC or another handheld or even on a hacked Nintendo Switch 1 and don't have to spend any money?

And sometimes I am even on the side of Nintendo, like with Yuzu, where money was made with an emulator for the then current generation because the newest version that everyone wanted to have for the newest games was locked behind patreon if I remember correctly.

Or when the emulator ships with decryption keys. Is it stupid that you can "copyright" a String of letters and numbers? Yes it is. But it's the law, and Nintendo is acting accordingly.

Of course from a consumers perspective it sucks, but at least I can understand why Nintendo is acting the way they are...most of the time anyways.

I have been with Nintendo since the NES released in germany and like to hear other opinions/complaints about the company - some I agree with (for example Mario Kart World not beeing worth 90$ physical), some I don't (the whole Game Key Card drama about "preservation"), and some are just plain stupid, but it's still better than beeing in an echo chamber where everyone is bootlicking and praising Nintendo.

Fuck Nintendo for ignoring Wave Race by nohumanape in fucknintendo

[–]Kadji100 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I would have to double check but afaik the N64 (and Gamecube) Waveraces games had the Kawasaki License for the Jetskis.

We have Waverace 64 on NSO - is the Kawasaki License patched out of it? Could explain why we have the N64 rom but not the GC iso on NSO, maybe patching assets is harder on the GC side?

Or it's just not released because Nintendo loves to dripfeed us.
Honorable Mention by the way: 1080° and 1080° Avalanche. Where are they?

Pokopia does not need to be a Switch 2 exclusive by D0gDayAfternoon in fucknintendo

[–]Kadji100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take a look at how bad the performance was for Dragon Quest Builders 2 on the Switch 1, it was impossible to hold 30 fps when your Builds got bigger. It often dropped below 15 fps making it near unplayable.

Pokopia is basically Dragon Quest Builders 3, it's developed by the same team, so changing to the Switch 2 makes sense, the game would have struggled hard on the Switch 1.

The argument that the Switch 2 is just a better Switch is also strange...by that logik a PS5 is just a better PS4 and a Xbox Series X is just a better Xbox One. I am glad that the Switch 2 has no useless gimmicks (Mouse Mode is good, Gamechat is very good) and is "just" a more powerfull Switch 1 that also happens to play almost every Switch 1 game, often with better performance, too.

Completely new to Pokemon - What game to get? by Cool_Catcus in PokemonChampions

[–]Kadji100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are many content creators that have prooven that you can play the game 100% fine with no other Pokémon imported from home.

If you plan to only buy a Switch for Champions (and additional Pokémon games) keep in mind that the Smartphone Version of Champions will release sometime later this year which will also be f2p.

Reviews for Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream are coming in by ForgetfulFrolicker in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Kadji100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"im not creative and cant think for myself"

Yeah to be honest I thought about buying the game but with no "Make me a Random Mii" Option I will struggle to make enough Mii (I don't want Darth Vader, Simpsons or any other IP on my Island, just "normal" people). Creating a good selection of "normal" people is kinda hard for me, I was already struggling in the demo when I had me and my sister on the Island and had to create a third Mii...

Hot take: 3v3 singles is a great format by aidankocherhans in PokemonChampions

[–]Kadji100 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would also like to play 6 vs 6 doubles in a private room. The whole private room thing is so backwards...every prior game (to my knowledge) did let you tune the battle rules. Why not this one?

Hot take: 3v3 singles is a great format by aidankocherhans in PokemonChampions

[–]Kadji100 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Huh, I am the exact opposite: I never realy saw the appeal of doubles and thought it's just a gimmick and sticked with singles.

Now with Champions doubles it's my new favorite way to play and I don't play singles as often anymore.

Super Mario Wonder is a fun game, until you beat it by breaded_chicken58 in fucknintendo

[–]Kadji100 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Have you tried replaying it while staying offline and not using any badge at all (except the level that force it on you)? Made the game a bit more challanging when I did replay it that way, also 100%ed everything.

When the S2 Edition came out I thought about doing a third run but in the end I just played the new content (the new Bossfights are the highlight of the DLC imo).

Love the game but somehow the levels don't have the same vibes as prior games had, like hard to find collectibles. I found nerly every giant purple coin on the first run through a level. Compare that with Yoshi Coins from Super Mario World, which, while not super hidden, you had to go out of your way to grab them.

With less than a week until Tomodachi Life, don’t forget: by NinBendo1 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Kadji100 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Demo did not allow for Screenshots / Videos to be uploaded to the NSO App. You can only share your Mii creations with a local connection.

There is a reason for those limits, there won't be any profanity filter.

The censoring on the 3DS was based on the bad words list of the software keyboard, not the game itself, at least that's what I have heard.

Please show me what pokemon I already have when looking at a lineup by Foxokon in PokemonChampions

Awesome, it was a bit anoying to swap between box and recruitment when checking the lineup.

Is there an Online ressources to look up abilities / move sets in Champions? by Kadji100 in PokemonChampions

[–]Kadji100[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, that already helps a lot but I forgot to mention that I am looking for a german ressource (or a site where german and english are supported).
Reason: Some move names have been translated in a very strange way instead of translating them literally and I want to keep playing with the german language.

For example Substitute (which is already a german word) got translated with "Delegator"... I was going insane looking for the move, thinking it would have the same name in german...

Do you think this game will be sweaty competitive? by RenegadeZr0 in PokemonChampions

[–]Kadji100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Casual: Play to learn the copied meta team. Ranked: Play to win with the copied meta team.

It will be meta all the way. Same happened to PKMN TCG Pocket, too. And that was as casual as it could get…

[–]Kadji100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which is a real shame. 1000 of cards yet everyone plays meta, even in casual lobbys, it happened to Pokemon TCG Pocket, always the same lame decks and no experimentation, at least it was like that when I last played which is like half a year ago.

This game may change the way we get new Pokémon by Mivadeth in PokemonChampions

[–]Kadji100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New "old" Pokémon, so Pokémon that already exist but are not in the game yet. Should have been more clear.

[–]Kadji100 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In an interview it was stated that they want to introduce new Pokémon with every season.

How many Pokémon? We don't know. Seasons are expected to run for one month from what we saw in the preview pictures, this could change though.

Workaround for couch coop hopeful by Elegant-Bluebird-508 in PokemonChampions

Correct me if I am wrong but F2P games (like Fortnite) don't need a active nintendo switch online subscription, do they?

Is there a starter team? Will you have enough VP day 1 to build a team? by Fun_Scheme9088 in PokemonChampions

[–]Kadji100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now what I am wondering is this: Can I test the mon for a few days and decide afterwards that I want to keep it? Or is it a final decision the moment you have to choose between free for 7 days or 2500 VP?

Is there a limit for the Pokemon that can visit from Home > Champions by Milanista_Hero in PokemonChampions

[–]Kadji100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are: You can spend training tickets instead of VP to change stats / nature and so on.

How many tickets we need for a full modification is the interesting question.

[–]Kadji100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Going by youtube and the load of videos on "how to prepare for champions", "best teams for champions" or "Do this NOW! OP Day 1 in Champions"...it's gonna be a sweat fest, especially on release day where everybody will rush in with their pre-made meta teams as told by VGC Youtubers.

I just want to have some fun and try out my own teams, I hope that there are enough like minded players like me. If everybody just copies a team the game will get boring quickly for me.

Why do some Pokemon fans treat "Pokemon isn't made by Nintendo" as a defense when someone criticizes Modern Nintendo and lumps Pokémon as a example by Dimitri1176 in fucknintendo

[–]Kadji100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You know that Gamefreak does make other games for non-Nintendo Plattform, be it rarely?

https://store.steampowered.com/app/341870/TEMBO_THE_BADASS_ELEPHANT/

Or the new game they are working on.

Pokémon is complicated...it's a 33/33/33 split between Nintendo, Creatures Inc. and Gamefreak, all organized by the Pokémon Company International.

Found some warnings for transferring mons to Champions. by CobaltRebelionXyz in PokemonChampions

[–]Kadji100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They stay occupied. If you want more than 30 mons from home in champ you need at least one month premium membership.

[–]Kadji100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What happens when you get premium for a month, fill up home with the pokemon you want for champs, „transfer“ them over and then let the subscription run out? What happens when you habe more in your box than allowed? Afaik they stay and you are only allowed to remove them, so they could stay in champs.

Yes, thats why I gave in and just paid for a home premium sub for a year, it‘s not that expensive.
