and here we see paid off reviewers giving it a perfect 10/10.

seriously what the fuck has gaming turned into, why is it when it comes to nintendo people are blindly excited to hand over cash for recycled crap.

i think these reviewers are giving it a score because they love mario as an icon and not the fucking game itself, same with zelda.

mario kart is basically MK8 WII U GOTY, ZELDA is basically an overly sized map with fuck all but shrines

What?
Again 10/10?
I could see that happening for Zelda, you know the new Zelda game blindness factor.
But MK8DX??? It is the same game we've been playing for years!
How can someone suffer hype-blindness for it?
Really... 10/10...

This is just a thread discussing the rather small amount of changes from the WiiU to the switch version. Why on earth are you bringing up reviews?

because nintendo are posting how MK8 is also rated 10/10 so again we will see adverts boasting how great it is, yet sorry we can clearly see nintendo have basically recycled the same game.

also to another thread one user as a defense to how other consoles get recycled games (yet failed because each game had a completely new story), this is just a port off the wii u and sorry do you pay £280 to have nintendo port the same games when theyre claiming to promise new games and better support.

how is the console going to get better support if they themselves are porting old games.

Nintendo loves boasting about rave reviews. No one in this thread is doing that, however. In fact you have quite a few people here slightly miffed at the small (but noticeable, least in my opinion) changes. You should really go to many nintendo fan-forums where they actually are going crazy over the reviews.

i was just linking to how nintendo are also drooling as this topic OP said about zelda getting perfect scores, and we find MK8 the same, yet nothing different really other than it being GOTY so it now really does beg the question how the heck.

when you find a company bragging how great something is and you rush to buy it then when you play it your thinking to expect something great, then turns out actually its not.

i would think personally if these reviews are off fans of the franchise so will always think highly of it or if these people are paid so nintendo can make the game sound better than it is and people buy the console.

so yea we will soon be seeing nintendo advertising bragging how its paid people off to get a perfect score off a recycled title with next to little changes.

Remaster, ports and rereleases are not something new or exclusive to Nintendo.

Stop acting like Nintendo are somehow doing something new.

consoles, especially in their first year see a great many rereleases, remasters and ports. All consoles, not just Nintendo.

reviewers also rate them fairly still giving good scores for good games.

My first example, The Last of Us Remaster 10/10.
Sony.

that list above, yes has remasters which i have stated a dislike, its not just nintendo, but i admit TLOU and UNCHARTED, RESIDENT EVIL i own on the PS4.

but here is a pointer for ya.

Resident Evil remasters....... skipped nintendo completely..... ohhh dear wonder why this would be considering they started off on the CUBE so tell me other than the remaster how are you to play Resident Evil HD on a SONY or MS consoles...... ohhh wait you cant because it never came to its console until now...... great point your making there.

but you have just confirmed my initial issue with nintendont is how it lacks the third party support and what games it does get are ported from games sony/ms got the last gen...... skyrim!

its this thats annoys me with nintendo when they keep releasing the same shit on every single console but just change it slightly and it lacks anything else the other systems get.

ohhh wait ok im going to rush out and buy scorpio just to play fucking EA's FIFA!!!

Well you see a little bit of improvement.
Thinking about getting it, since i gave my wii u to my brother and can't play it anymore.

The price is a little bit high, but i can understand why. Or maybe i just wait. Currently having enough to play on pc :)
Thanks for the video.

OP
Anyone know if when it comes out, I can play 2/3/4 players on my system AND go online play at the same time, or is it limited to just 1 person per console while online?

Hang on stay on point. Don't start talking about different subjects.

Your point that I'm discussing is about Mario Kart 8 delux, it's worth and it's review score, not about 3rd party support or Scorpio or fifa, if you wish to talk about those subjects start a thread or comment in one relevant.

i was just linking to how nintendo are also drooling as this topic OP said about zelda getting perfect scores, and we find MK8 the same, yet nothing different really other than it being GOTY so it now really does beg the question how the heck.

when you find a company bragging how great something is and you rush to buy it then when you play it your thinking to expect something great, then turns out actually its not.

i would think personally if these reviews are off fans of the franchise so will always think highly of it or if these people are paid so nintendo can make the game sound better than it is and people buy the console.

so yea we will soon be seeing nintendo advertising bragging how its paid people off to get a perfect score off a recycled title with next to little changes.

This was your point so I gave you examples, specifically TLOU remastered. A title released on a previous console, a title which scored 10/10 with many reviewers and a title that has basically no changes from the original. Higher res+60fps+dlc VS locked 60fps+dlc+brand new battle mode.

And by your own admission you own, you went out and bought TLOU remastered.

So how, pray tell, does that make you anything but a hypocrite simply trolling Nintendo?

(oh and btw, while resident 0 may work for your example, resident evil works for mine. It came out on ps1, a Sony console, pretty much like the other 19 examples you chose to ignore)

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is a bit of the definitive Mario Kart. For one time, strangely enough Nintendo listened to all the flaws people raised up about MK8 and fixed them. The physics were changed, fire hopping fixed, non-heavy characters were buffed. As a Mario Kart title, this one is almost flawless.

what links to 10/10 for TLOU, the title itself yes was originally a game on the PS3 which was also then released on the PS4, but shares the same review rating..

yet where mk8 wii u doesnt get full score, yet its port to the switch which is basically identical and it gets full scores?

so what, how, ehh? by recylcing the same game and adding in some extra (say dlc content) this gives the same game a full score..... well fuck me with a double decker bus.... i never knew GOTY versions deserved better ratings for the same shit.

Mario Kart 8+rubbish battle mode =9/10
Mario Kart 8+great battle mode =10/10

Or are you saying that a completely new and improved multiplayer feature doesn't deserve another point, or that a cheap multiplayer feature doesn't deserve 1 less point?

Mario Kart 8+tweeked slightly but still recycled the same game...... yes lets all rush out to rebuy the same shit....... or for a new console do you not expect nintendont to actually make a new fucking game?

Or are you saying that a completely new and improved multiplayer feature doesn't deserve another point, or that a cheap multiplayer feature doesn't deserve 1 less point?

lets just remind you that these "remasters" you may try counter with are mainly from third parties for the XBX/PS..... great games nintendont can only dream of getting.

but its not impressive to find a console that for many generations now have proven its games mainly come from nintendo, the same titles and now they cant even be bothered to make you something new, they just recycle the wii u game.

shocking!

but hey ho, its proven from day one, nintendo fans will love and defend them until the end.

its rather fucking amusing i guess you really can sell shit if you put a pretty pink bow on it.
