pokemon is there more times than anything else there’s more to life than that stagnating franchise, only kept alive by the over 30 plus year olds that refuse to play games for their age range.

There’s this thing called free will? Also funny that you think games have a maximum age =P
On a side note: I think shooting other people to bits is not a really mature thing to do at all. Wars only exist in this world because some world leaders are not mature enough to do the right thing.

that is correct, but shooters do make up roughly most of the gaming community (even if they are foul mouthed ingrates) Pokemon clearly says age 7 and yet that isn’t the age the players are.

Splatoon 2 clearly says age 12, are you 12 years old?

I like how they exclude the word “of” in the titles. Like “Ocarina Time” sounds great. I could use some more ocarina time in my life…

Actually scratch that, it was an article about him explaining why he left Nintendo 20 years after he was already dead. https://mynintendonews.com/2018/05/07/the-creator-behind-the-game-boy-explains-why-he-left-nintendo/

I had no idea Donkey Kong Country was ported to game boy color.

It’s a pretty good port, I own it. The sound and graphics take a hit but the gameplay is still there.

All of those n64 games should be ported to nintendo switch. I’ll understand if star wars, diddy kong racing (has banjo and conker), and james bond don’t make it due to licensing issues.

What was SO great about Goldeneye? I played a little of it back in the day, and I hated it just as much as I hate ALL first person shooters. Also, I can’t believe Conker’s Bad Fur Day isn’t on this list. I LOVED that game. Though the ending did confuse me.
