[@RAZ9718]

katanamaru1 Jim decided nintendo's too important so it requires it's own Jimquisiton Episode when they fuck up.

[@ArcaneAzmadi]

+RAZGRIZ9718 Well he used to dedicate entire episodes to covering Ubisoft and Konami when they fucked up as well. FucKonami News and Oh Ubisoft! came about _because_ they kept doing it too often to be worth doing an entire episode on each time. Frankly, I expect Nintendo to be joining them some time in the indeterminate future, because they just feep fucking up over and over again too, and he can't just keep doing more entire episodes desperately imploring them to stop being shiheaded wankers EVERY time.

[@DonkBrunette]

[@RAZ9718]

The fact that such an enormous and stupendously rich company as Nintendo uses "lack of resources" as an excuse is just laughable.

[@OstianOwl]

I am 247% behind Waluigi getting his own game. If Tingle of all characters can get two of his own games (three if you want to count the Balloon Fight reskin) then I see no reason for Our Lord and Master of Wah to not get one.

I had a theory that the reason the Wii U didn't sell that well is because there wasn't a proper Wario platformer game on the system. If they make one for the Switch, I'm sure it's going to sell more than it already has.

[@supergoron1]

You sir get it.

[@garchompchump9274]

they also had like 12 good games on the system, and that might have halted sales. but i don't think there's any proof of that.

[@psykonikk]

not saying it was it own sepperet console and not an add on to the Wii was some of it too

[@gabrielwright-dunn9355]

+Garchomp Chump This is just a theory, but I think it also had something to do with those games being released far apart form each other along with the huge drought of games when it first came out. Nah, that's crazy talk.

Tip: When you wanna launch any objects (max. weight 90kgs) up to 300m, always use a Trebuchet, the superior seige weapon. Catapults just won't go that far.

[@christopherl.1072]

Isaac The Fallen Apple not that nonsensical, just anti consumer, what they do is give limited amounts of stock so the hype is widely distributed in time, not dying in the first weeks, just like with the amiibo, so second hand fans have to pay full hype price for the item even months after.

[@haruhisuzumiya6650]

Christopher Lucero except the switch is not suffering artificially, the demand is wii levels crazy... the switch is crazy hot and no matter what the haters said about the switch being a total flop (looking at your delusional ass Brokengamezhd) not even selling half the wii us numbers, the switch is practically scarce and Nintendo is ramping up supply...

[@Stoneforge1501]

Aha ok got it lol. :P

[@Stoneforge1501]

@Jimel s Actually it was, and it is. I just didn't get it because of two reasons. 1: I haven't owned a Nintendo since the 64 so I have no idea about it's current game library. 2: I was looking for a literal shadow in the background added through editing software (I'm that kind of guy).

[@TrickyJebus]

I only noticed the squid hat. Jim is carrying the hype for splatoon2 CONFIRMED!

[@Kona_chibi]

The actual reason the NES Classic was discontinued was because it was so ridiculously easy to turn it into an emulator machine and get the entire NES library for free on it instead of the restrictive 30 games. And let's not forget that Nintendo have also announced plans for the release of a SNES Classic too, so 'lack of resources' is, very obviously, complete and total bulls**t. Here's an idea Jim, to go along with Oh Ubisoft and Fuckonami, you could start another one called 'Nintendon't do it again!' listing every time Nintendo screw up, and let's be honest, it's a lot more common than one would think for a multi-billion dollar company of such long running prestige.

[@Kona_chibi]

fudzilla.com/news/games/43523-nintendo-working-on-snes-miniature-console You sure about that?

[@steelscooter]

Kona Chibi Nintendo has said nothing about a SNES Mini, only "Sources close to Eurogamer" whatever the Fuck that means. It is only a rumour fabricated to generate clicks.

[@The_Blog]

Kona Chibi Is it easy to get all games on it? How would you do that? Just asking out of curiosity. Don't own a NES Classic and don't plan on doing it. The thing doesn't have any USB ports or SD card slots right?

[@Fattydeposit]

Kona Chibi Not really sure how Nintendo messed up tbh. NES Classic, Switch and 3DSs are all roaring successes. There's no way they'd prioritise NES Classic production over the Switch. Scalpers are good for brand value. They actually haven't put a foot wrong lately, from what I can make out.

[@shaneoshaughnessy8231]

bumtree - They've lost a ton of money from people like me who were willing to buy an NES Classic but couldn't give two shits about the Switch. That's not success.

He's saving money. The catapult is easier and less resource intensive to build.

[@Peachrocks5]

We are covering all angles here. They apparently don't have enough resources for the Nintendo Classic after all, so for the highest chance of the proposal going through, naturally less expensive, less efficient but still functional solutions are offered first to draw their interest.

[@garchompchump9274]

i mean, like the 2ds and new 2d because they're cheap alternative for cheap men like me, and i'm pretty sure they would get more out of that than a glorified limited rom machine

Just playing it for the first time over the past few days. It certainly is enjoyable, but there are so many issues which "fanbois", as you call them, and reviewers alike seem to gloss over. I wasn't even aware going in that there would be Ubisoft Radio Towers™, respawning enemy camps with chests for clearing them and all manner of open world tropes. This was the open world people were praising for being "fresh"? Had they played an open world game before this? But still, it's a great game, and whilst I hate BotW fanboys to no end; so many a KZbin comment section ruined by them, I don't think it's worth riling them up over. Jim and BotW is done. We should move on, just as they *need to move on*.

Get ready for the Waluigi crotch chop to pop up in videos for the next year folks.

I bet Nintendo's reasoning for no Waluigi in the Year of Luigi was "Well they're two *completely* different, unique and original characters! I don't see how you can say they're the same, one has a spiky moustache AND a purple outfit! How can they be the same? =D" Also, just for those who don't already know: "Warui" is the japanese word for bad. Hence Wario and Waluigi, the world's most facile "Umm... we need a villain/trickster/whatever for a not-quite-Mario game, and I keep thinking of Mario... or Luigi... because my brain has only enough room for two or three people at a time... Who are you again? My boss? The heck you say! Well, anyway, so what about a bad Mario? We could call him Bad Mario! ...That's no good? Well what about Badio? Wario? Yeah, there we go, that's professional grade creative geniusing right there. Miyamoto does it again!! =D" characters. I imagine Doctor Mario came into being in a very similar manner...

[@kalackninja]

no duckrutt, but you would have more sales

[@haruhisuzumiya6650]

kalackninja while the nes classic was getting made, Nintendo was producing the Nintendo switch, plus Nintendo said that the nes classic is a limited edition product initially but due to strong demand that was extended.... whats fucking funny is that people like jim sterling seem to think that they know how much a nes classic mini costs... they don't.

[@kalackninja]

the irony of your comment is lost on you. Yes and neither do you but they made a lot of profit from the nes classic and every other company would kill for that demand and that profit margin. The fact that they said it is a limited product is meaningless because only Nintendo would discontinue it without attempting to even come close to demand, literally throwing away millions of dollars.

[@Selvyre]

Should we want something succeed for the sake of its success, or because it deserves that success? Criticism of Nintendo is warranted at this point, because while many of their games are very polished and enjoyable (so long as you don't set standards too high for innovation), their business decisions aren't very good for the consumer-end of the deal, and that's worth critique. Nintendo is venerable, but they know that and they exploit it.

A cameo in every Nintendo game. A game of his own. Plus a NSMB game with Waluigi as the only playable character. Plus him as a playable character in the inevitable Switch remake of Smash 4. Come on, I can keep going here? I'm not even being ironic. I genuinely want a year of Waluigi. Just. Waluigi. Please Nintendo. Please.

[@TheFrugalVideoGamer]

With the credit-card thing, that might be Nintendo's way of preventing the infamous "My child racked up $500+ in credit card debt because the info was saved!" situations.

As a realistic Nintendo fan , like Jim Fucking Sterling Son said:"I only do it out of love."

[@Tibasu]

Nintendo episode with Oh Ubisoft? Does this mean I get to watch 2 fan boy groups riot in the comments at once

[@supernaruto12]

Tibasu there are Ubisoft Fanboys?!

[@Tibasu]

Sancho good point lol

[@StarWarsAddict527]

Tibasu I dont really see how anyone can defend Ubisoft

[@CazMeister]

Release Mother 3 and continue remaking all the Japanese Fire Emblem games. Boom, second wind!

[@kurtmorales7644]

BWAHAHAHa!!! like that will every happen XD this is Nintendo we're talking about. They will only listen if they are in danger of going under

[@SocialistSkeptic]

There should be like an annual compilation video of the best Fuc Konami and Oh Ubisoft clips.

[@Devilot109]

I... really, really wish there was somewhere that listed the various clips Jim uses, because they sometimes show the most absurdly intriguing things... like the cartoon kid with the boots, or the weird dream world cartoon thing.

[@Devilot109]

I... actually managed to find it with a weird, vague-ass Google search for a change... and it doesn't seem less intriguingly bizarre from the Wikipedia page.

[@Devilot109]

I already knew that one, but looked it up to be sure. It's Cyril Sneer the Aardvark from the Raccoons.

[@kstanford387]

I volunteer to be one of the said scalpers, and I will do it absolutely free of charge. I will even bring my own lemon juice.

[@MrZemIan]

Yeah... I love Nintendo, grew up with NES and N64...but it's a shitty company that is just milking their customers/fans at this point and they need to be critizised more for it tbh... But as with Jim, my love for Nintendo has not clouded my judgement...doesn't matter if I love a company...if they act like idiots they should be critizised no matter which one it is in order to keep them on their toes...

[@murdkips2539]

you still waiting for thoes new boglins by tim, jim ?

[@JimSterling]

Yeah, keeping an eye out.

[@SlyWilliam1]

I always love a JimQuisition that ends with Chains of Love, the song lends itself so nicely to the end credits :)

[@foxdragonarchive930]

I love how the theme for 'allo 'allo! is playing during his Oh Ubisoft! bit near the end. I wonder if Jim has ever stuffed one million francs down his trousers?

[@alexbkidd8616]

Is this video age restricted because salty individuals mass reported it?

[@noahboddie3482]

In all likeliness

[@AlTheJuggernaut]

probably from the tastefully censored gay porno screenshot

[@noahboddie3482]

Al TheJuggernaut or that.

[@1trevor30]

But it's censored.

[@dedhart]

I actually saw 3 switches at my local Walmart the other day. I was tempted to buy but I already got breath of the wild for the Wii u. as much as I'd like to play on the go... I'm not spending my hard earned $ on a company that doesn't want my $. Now to go look up Erasure videos.

[@luxray978]

you could have sold it on ebay

[@haruhisuzumiya6650]

Dylan Boomhower and likely sold out, soon as you left them, tsk tsk. your idea of boycotting Nintendo switch is not working.

[@dedhart]

it's amazing how much love fans have for a company that shows us nothing but contempt.

[@CherryPauper]

If you make it hard to get your console by limiting the supply (don't want to buy from 3rd party) then people are going to pirate your shit. There is already a Wii U emulator (CEMU) out which can play flagship games like BotW and we will get one for Switch.

[@diegoantoniorosariopalomin4977]

Cherry Pauper it can play games at 4k ( and i think 60 fps too )

[@jesusquiroga9714]

There's already one for the Switch.

[@themexicandwarf]

honestly i don't even understant who was interested in this in the first place... why pay money to get a product that is worst than a usb stick with roms. If i had a nes classic i would have to re arange my living room so that my couch is a few feets away from my tv.

[@garchompchump9274]

yeah but at that point its actual fucking pirating, because the wii u came out last year and the switch and BOTW just came out. don't get me wrong, nintendo can be idiots, but anyone who creates this shit are no different form the trash who pirate fallout 4 after release

[@PappyMagee137]

Best commentary I have ever heard on Nintendo. You are the Man Jim.

[@Ugmo1985]

Mondays are so much better with Jim Sterling taking sacred cows to task. Thanks Jim

[@faizazfar659]

I just love it when Jim subtly says how Zelda isn't that good. I mean this was my first Zelda game, and boy was it not "a flawless masterpiece". The world was nice and big but everything else was average. Like everything. Zelda does nothing better than any other game, so it shouldn't be getting all these 10/10 10/10 10/10s.

[@sdomain7035]

MY FAVORITE KZbin SHOW!! ;)

[@gippy101]

Tried to buy a NES Classic but wasn't able to get my hands on one. Fuck em. Ill just play all those games for free now.

[@uniquehandleohsocool]

And remember, as our Lord Jimothy once said: "It is okay to pirate games from Nintendo"

[@theshadowrose]

Every time jim bobbed his head the squids side flaps moved. I was not expecting this 4th dimension.

[@redaffix7320]

I was wondering why this video got age-restricted... Well done Jim. Well-fucking-done.

[@cyanmanta]

I am honestly starting to worry that Nintendo will become my Konami, i.e. a company I used to love and respect but which has systematically made itself an industry joke. I'm a lifelong fanboy and I don't want to hate Nintendo, but it's getting kind of embarrassing now.

[@simran789654]

Question is , DO YOU WEAR A GREEN TUNIC ?

[@avatareternal3204]

Nintendo has a long way to go if they want to reach Konami's level. Not saying they won't reach that point eventually but it's going to take a while.

[@TheNinjaCrash]

cyanmanta I don't think that's an apt comparison... Konami is pure evil. Nintendo is just boneheaded.

[@23Scadu]

Nintendo have been consumer unfriendly shits since the NES at least, but at least they still make good games.

[@dennett316]

Nintendo makes better games, that's where the differences end. Nintendo aren't just bone headed, you think they don't know that scalpers gouge people because of their policies? You think they don't know how much demand there is for their NES Classic, or Switch, or Amiibo's? You think they don't know what they're doing when they price gouge on accessories? Or why their account systems are as they are, why everything is so restrictive and inconvenient? This isn't ignorance, these are all choices. They crave control over every aspect of the gaming experience on their platforms...they've had to be dragged kicking and screaming to getting anywhere near modern standards. They want the extra money that comes from over-pricing accessories and making games on carts. They want to create that frenzied over-protection from their fans that sees a man's site get ddos'ed because he didn't like one of their games enough. They've conditioned their fans to accept their BS excuses and nonsense because, awww, aren't they all cuddly and dumb? Ain't it cute that they're so silly? They've drilled these lowered standards into people's heads for decades, they know they can get away with it now. They don't have the resources to mould a plastic shell and chuck in an emulator board, but they can absolutely spare the resources to put out yet another iteration of the same dated handheld tech? It's insane just how stupid they think people are to believe that bullshit....except, it's not insane at all, people are defending their shitty decision making still.

[@LordEgilYGO]

The way I see it, Nintendo is giving an apology letter with the wide variety of games they've got in development for the Switch.

[@raguguru829]

But I don't want to pay $60+ for an apology letter

[@GScottActing]

Aaaand it's not much help if you can't find a copy of the console anywhere 'cause they didn't ship enough. Nintendo should know better.

[@garchompchump9274]

but isn't that the price for every apology letter. except yooka-ylalye, that one was cheaper

[@baloo6910]

the new Zelda is running at 4K 60fps on emulator, nintendo where are thou

[@Benandkyoko]

No it is not.. It runs at 28 frames with frame stutter. Missing water. Locked camera and no particles..

[@Benandkyoko]

rain is also missing..but you can complete the game... so yeah... I mean.. you can watch a stolen movie show real for awards too.. is that experience better than going to the movies?

[@baloo6910]

"movie show awards" wtf man :) OY! google, Zelda breath of the wild 60fps 4k, you need to type it on keyboard, luv :*

[@Benandkyoko]

Hahahaah the physics of the game don't run at 60fps try again loser. It is not even possible to run the game and the best emulator is still having problems running at 30.. try facts luv. Oh wait... you are Jim Sterling fan.. you guys hate facts you prefer bullshit and rants to real facts.. fucking bunch of terminal 12 year olds with subnormal iq.

[@jonharson]

"...28 frames with stutter..." So basically better than on the original console.

[@chancecole437]

I just noticed that you have a Primal Rage toy on your podium, and will love you forever.

[@thejoyfuldragon887]

Great video Jim, as always. I do recommend you zoom out a little bit to make the entirety of the logo visible though

[@asvarien]

OMG Jim Sterling advocates pollution of the worlds oceans!!

[@abloogywoogywoo]

And JUICY SLOTS. The man is a menace to society I tell you. :)

[@PhyreI3ird]

Oh mah gaw, itz moar KZbin boold moneys call the press

[@talkingbtr-82a76]

A corporation no matter what is it and no matter what it's selling, never really cares about the consumer. It gives you a functional product you want and you give money back. That's about it. there are no emotional bonds here, all of this is just business. So I really don't understand why people latch onto varies companies and form a type of love and attachment that is kinda toxic. I means it's all just business and business is a emotionless machine.

[@howard387]

Wrong. Nintendo is not a multinational corporation. Nintendo is my best friend because I like it and therefore it has an obligation to tailor its business practices to suit my personal preferences because I liked Star Fox 64.

[@KazeMemaryu]

Because people project. Nintendo games have that unique kind of happiness to them that many people recognize. And people who like these games project the prospect of happiness to Nintendo for making them, seeing them like some sort of caretaker whose only goal is to make players happy. And Nintendo themselves keep pushing the family-friendly image very aggressively. But whenever someone points out the obvious (Nintendo being a bunch of old jerkoffs who love their middle fingers more than their parents), fanboys get angry, as if you insulted THEIR parents. They rage about, insult, deny, and harass anyone who doesn't reinforce their delusions. Kinda like a drug addict, I guess.

[@talkingbtr-82a76]

Kaze Memaryu I know, only because I have bought Nintendo​ in the past. but still the amount of lengths these zealots will go to are insane. mostly because at this point they are like children being handled by a Pedo. they don't understand what's happening to them. even when they're getting fucked over.

[@Thezoedee123]

tashfeen shafee000999m

[@halsaufschneider1446]

Yet it is a while, since they presented to Me a functional product! Since the original Wii, I have to emulate their games, to even enjoy them. I don't see how the "functionality" is achieved on their part. I can deal with crappy 30 fps and bad textures. But bad resolutions are utterly unacceptable!

[@godzamoongus]

Jim there should be an after credits Nintendo sequence like #FucKonami

[@SagashiIndustries]

He said on Twitter that Nintendo is too big and important to be an "after-credits" feature

[@MikeZdoesitz]

REALLY thankful for that precariously inserted toad image

[@yummyfood34]

That was a wonderful outro on this video you beautiful f*cking stallion of a man. Thank God for you Jim.

[@mcj88]

As a Nintendo fanboy, a thought occurs... can we as a fanbase stop making Reggie Fils-Amie into this memetic badass figure? The dude's clearly a fucking bonehead who doesn't actually know how to properly run a company; and since I don't know how much of Nintendo's problems are actually his fault, that goes for everyone else in charge there too. For the company's sake I hope they get their heads out of their collective asses, and fast.

[@DevilSurvivor69]

McJohnson I actually don't him for any of this or anything else Nintendo does because I know how it is working for an Asian tech manufacturer and how are absolutely tyrannical with their policies in any given market. He probably has his hands tied about this.

[@Omega-bh9np]

ItalkiTeacher you forgot the blame between "dont "and "him"

[@EarlnEarl]

McJohnson, I feel the same way about Waluigi.

[@entitledOne]

I demand the source of the porn during the Waluigi part. The one where some important parts were covered by C.Toad. I... need it for reasons...

[@InMaTeofDeath]

I liked the video when he said MK8 is the *"best game on the switch to date"*

[@Intermistelle]

I don't know how I missed this video, this is comedy gold. Thank God for Jim Sterling!

[@atom4633]

Its funny, Chains of of Love is on our playlist at work (A Mexican restaurant oddly enough) and every time I hear I think of you big magnificent bastard. Everyone else doesn't quite seem to understand why I break out into dance though, still trying to get them to understand.
