It sounded though like some of the guys on the project were a bit upset that others were using it as a big "gently caress YOU" to Nintendo.

It's not dead yet anyway, other people want to pick it up.

that's literally all the project ever was and ever could be though. I'm totally cool with sticking it to large corporations and all but localization teams do really grueling and thankless work and to have a group of assholes crow about how they could totally do it better for free is really gross.

Very true.

On NX controller stuff I'm worried that my clammy mitts would ruin that nice screen.

We here at Nintendo thought after so many complaints about the GamePad and how expensive and unavailable it is that we would make an even more expensive and less available controller with no buttons.

Why would somebody do a fan translation of something that's already been translated

This isn't new, people were doing this for Final Fantasy games ten years back. Some fan translations have translators disagree with them and do their own versions. It's a weird world.

There was one guy on the forums that bought a Wii U console secondhand that somehow did not come with the gamepad. Getting a replacement is apparently difficult.

The pro controller is reasonably priced.

The complaints were overstated (they always are) but to get a replacement game pad for ex you have to buy a used one from somebody somehow or get a weird refurb or import one since they only sell them new individually in Japan, and they retail for over $100

That kind of sucks for parents and stuff

No seriously. Couldn't you hook up multiple GBA's to a gamecube? How is the Wii U a step back? How is there not Wii U Advance Wars?

Not to mention the biggest mechanical changes (petting) were likely mandated by IS themselves in Japan, which defeats the whole argument about someone defacing another person's art or whatever.

Idk why anyone would want more than one, when all the multiplayer is split screen for the most part. Or one person gets to use the gamepad and one person uses the tv, stuff like that.

I think at one point they asked someone at Nintendo who said it was technically possible but so far absolutely nothing uses it. I think they just said that to get people off their back despite having nothing in development doing that.

It would be awesome if you could use a second gamepad just as an input device without the touchscreen but I suppose there are technical limitations to connecting multiple wireless displays to the same console.
