That's pretty impressive sales for China. Considering that the Switch already does well in the usual NA/EU/Japan regions those sales are a nice added boost.

Colour me not at all surprised. 

If people actually want to make a donation to mental health charities in Etika's name, Nintendo is not stopping them. It's frankly disrespectful to the deceased and his family to use his death as to weaponise a community the way this guy is.

I can't believe this guy's for real. -_-

Who me? Look admittedly maybe I was a bit harsh, but it seems to me that if you're going to raise money for mental health and suicide prevention in the name of a beloved community figure, you should probably do so in a more straightforward way that steers clear of legal issues.

He could have set up a fundraiser in Etika's name without bringing the joycons into it, but people are acting as if Nintendo has banned donating money to charity.

I could be wrong, but seems as though he's played fast and loose with intellectual copyright law and then tried to weaponize community sentiment to his side when he the company asserted control of its property. Nintendo has to be consistent in keeping control of their IP or they risk opening the floodgates.

Not you, I meant the guy who took advantage of the whole situation.

Ah, my bad, I misunderstood your post. Yeah the whole thing's a bit of a shitshow atm, I should probably just keep out of it for my own sanity haha.



What a lame addition... We already have a ff7 representative, but nooooo! Guess another fire emblem fighter wannabe is never enough *sigh*



 

 

We reap what we sow

I hope Nintendo have more to show at the VGAs than just a Smash character and Wii U port, but I'm not getting my hopes up as their showings there have been kinda weak for the last few years.

EDIT: Nvm, new Monster Hunter Rise trailer, Capcom to the rescue haha.

It's fucking SEPHIROTH!!! If you're not hyped by this, you just don't get it.

Besides, we need more Villain representation. All we've got are Bowser, Ganondorf, Dedede, K.Rool, Ridley, and Wolf. 



OH GOD NO!!!!
WHY CAPCOM, WHY?!?!?



Why does it look like a cheap mobile game? why does it look like the ones on the facebook ads? WHY THOUGH WHY?



Yeah, that Ghosts 'n' Goblins Ressurection game could really use a better art style, gameplay looks fine but the graphics look really cheap.
