There was a problem fetching the tweet

Note to self: Being called out on ludicrous statements like "I'd be interested in the new Zelda if I didn't have to play as Link" means harassment
Uh, full context please

Yeah I want to know the whole story as well.
Just so I'm not missing anything nor things are being taken out of context.

Also do people really play with the GamePad on their lap? I always hold it up a little, sort of within the corner of my eye, if I'm playing a game like Zelda.
I just hold it up most of the time. Love using the Gamepad to play Virtual Console games.

Tamashii said she didn't care about BotW because she has to play as Link. People didn't get that, and considering her views she most likely wanted a female Link. Nothing wrong with that, but refusing to buy a product because what's in between the protagonist's legs is ****ing dumb, she got called out on it, and she whines 'omg harazmint'

Is there any way we can see those Tweets? Knowing the Internet I'm sure someone snagged them.

I think my thing with more power is that while it CAN be nice, no one even bothers to use it until the latter half of a generation aside from adding some better textures.

It only promotes creativity for about half a console gen. The other half is spent porting everything backwards to the previous generation and pretending the newer tech doesn't exist except as a prettiness buff.

It's part of why every system "has no games" at first. Not only do people not bother making games for anything until further in, they port most of the games they do make over to the older system.

By the time a system actually starts making anything innovative, it's almost out the door.

So would it be nice if Nintendo kept up to at least base PS4/XB1 levels? Sure. And I think they might, considering the timing.

But I'm not going to harp on them for not instantly jumping to 4KVRXYZ, because people are going to be lazy garbage with everything until the last second. It's probably best if Nintendo makes things easier to port onto their systems, but anything beyond that doesn't really have that much incentive aside from people constantly jumping the gun.

Nintendo is going to get a heck of a lot of bad PR for not anticipating and going beyond Scorpio/Neo levels with the NX. But that doesn't mean the Scorpio/Neo are going to get any games I care about.

While I'm not a fan of Shattered Crystal's floaty jump still being there, the level design is looking a lot better.

Lol. The funny thing about Hot Ryu being named Hot Ryu officially that's even funnier is that Ryu is never not physically attractive so now that that's the official name for that alt implies Ryu is only a sexy guy when he's shirtless and doesn't shave.

Messy lol.

Aw...poor thing, he's shivering...xD Does he sneezes after a while like Link in OoT?
I'm not really sure. But if they add that in the game, then I am completely sold with it. :p

By the way, Natural Playboy is now my favorite song from Bust A Groove. How did I not grow up with a fantastic rhythm game like this?

To be honest I can't say no to chiseled abs and a beard which pierces the hearts of all.
I just can't.

I also met up with Masuda-San after the Pokémon Symphony. Absolutely terrific man. It's always a pleasure to see him.

I hope you are all enjoying E3!

Personally, I'd love it if the game has a Master Quest mode that is more challenging and lets you play as different characters. I'd love to play as princess Zelda for once. If any Zelda game could get away with having multiple playable characters, it'd be this one due to how it's designed.

Also, maybe I'm alone here, but I find the idea of a female Link character to be rather dumb. Link stopped being a generic self-insert character by around the 3rd game, and quickly became his own established icon. Plus, LoZ already has female characters who could use more development and characterization. So why not use them if people REALLY wanna play as a girl THAT badly. When it comes down to it, female Link is the same ****, but with different genitals. Wheras Zelda could sport all sorts of different unique abilities not available to Link. Yes, to the second please.

Everyone's all "We need a female Link!" while here I am hoping that a female Kirby is canon. :woman:

I just don't get people who can't identify with a person or character unless they have the same genitalia as you or date the same type of person as you. It's like you limit yourself to your gender or sexuality and that's just as big of a problem as representation.

I've been contemplating on getting either Kirby Planet Robobot or getting a $50 eShop card and getting Rhythm Heaven Megamix and Shantae Pirate Curse. Then I played the Rhythm Heaven demo and I decided on the eShop card. That game was so freaking fun and I want more.

But isn't Kirby a girl already?

I saw what you did there. troll:

Yes. You can never have enough infinite power. Having 2 Kirbys means double infinite power!
This. There can never be enough puffs.

If the 2 kirby's try to suck eachother in, would that be the same thing as dividing by 0?

And this is why it amazes me that the Kirby universe is still somehow intact.
I'm just saying if it was from the angles of let's say Waddle Dee we'd be having a completely different story.

People need something to complain about in order to feel relevant, and gender issues are a hot topic these days due to radical neo-liberalism.

It holds no weight. Most of the argument is based on the grounds that not being all-inclusive to the every variant in society that isn't "the evil straight white male" is inherently sexist. However, their argument falls flat because they argue that female characters don't get enough development and are cast aside again and again, but demand that the existing female characters in LoZ are cast aside for a generic carbon copy of a popular male character. Cognitive dissonance m8, it can do some crazy ****.

I learned that one of my favorite Miiverse users, "Wii U News" and "3DS News" is ending after 3.5 years working on it. Sure, I can get the news everywhere else, but having something to keep up to date when I always keep my 3DS in my pocket really felt convenient.

As for no female Link in Breath of the Wild, honestly Hyrule Warriors' Linkle ruined my all expectations for the chance of such thing happening.

False argument, as in AM, they got tired after inhaling for a few seconds. Now RETURN TO DREAMLAND...
I remember that he never got tired of inhaling in RTD (I never played amazing mirror). I guess Kirby did a lot of inhaling training in his free time before the events of RTD?

Must be the gourmet race in KSSU that got him training for more
Let's not forget all the sweets and meats he ate when he was running that made him gain a ton of calories from excessive eating (and maxim tomatoes that probably burned a ton of calories after eating all the unhealthy stuff). Who knows how many calories a maximum tomato can burn? o_o

Only the storyline so far seems to justify the fact that we play as Link (other than, you know, him being a recurring protagonist since day one, but that's obvious). But other playable characters would be fanservice and that is what Hyrule Warriors is there for.

Considering the increased story focus on the Sheikah tribe in Breath of the Wild do you think it's possible we might finally find out how they all disappeared?
