Re: New Limited-Time Switch 2 Offer Features A Small Saving On Mario Galaxy

JohnnyMind

@flighty I get your point and overall agree, but mine is mainly that some keep on acting as if there were no similar offers also on the eShop at all - instead of being so obsessed with starting prices, especially on Nintendo systems (to the point that I've seen on this very site even baffling comparisons between full prices on those specifically and discounted prices elsewhere instead of discounted prices on both), they could and should look/wait for discounts regardless of the platform...

@JohnnyMind We are not seeing the same current sales because sales in different regions on the eShop seem to happen at different times (and regional prices differ as well), however, for comparison, let me point out the local prices I can see based on price history for the multi-platform games you mentioned, so that you hopefully understand the point I'm trying to make (prices in USD):

Laika: Aged Through Blood (MSRP: $19.99)

  • previous eShop historic low: $4.99
  • previous Steam historic low: $4.99
  • lowest current price I could find on any site for PC: $2.19

Enter the Gungeon (MSRP: $14.99)

  • previous eShop historic low price: $2.99
  • previous Steam historic low: $1.49
  • lowest current price I could find on any site for PC: $2.99

Spiritfarer (MSRP: $29.99)

  • previous eShop historic low: $4.49
  • previous Steam historic low: $2.99
  • lowest current price I could find on any site for PC: $2.97

CARRION (MSRP: $19.99)

  • previous eShop historic low: $4.99
  • previous Steam historic low: $3.99
  • lowest current price I could find on any site for PC: $3.99

Darkest Dungeon (MSRP: $24.99)

  • previous eShop historic low: $3.74
  • previous Steam historic low: $1.99
  • lowest current price I could find on any site for PC: $2.79

(eShop historic lows as listed on dekudeals, Steam historic lows as listed on isthereanydeal)

PC consistently has sales that match or beat console sales. PC gamers save more on every single purchase (if they bother to comparison shop) Also, the games you listed were all indies. These price comparisons extend to AA and AAA titles.

I was late to the party. I remember the original release. Never piqued my interest. When it came out on the Switch, I decided to give it a try. I LOVED the game! The only thing, I never beat it! 😩 It's a long game! After the big reveal, I played for a while longer. Eventually, I lost interest. I didn't think it was boring, I had enough. Spending time trying to figure out what to do added a lot to my play time.

I was always in awe of how beautiful it looked. I can't wait to see what they do with today's hardware. I bet the transformation of lands will be stunning!

@Cry_Zero well, you’re entitled to yours even if most of the gaming world has forgotten about DK64. I mean, until Bananza was announced, I didn’t believe DK had a 3D outing before it. Same with Kirby 64.

Clearly Bananza will not be as forgettable since it has sold 4.25 million copies thus far. Since DK64 is on NSO, I’ll probably try it someday.

Also, I love Bananza, it has been loads of fun for me.

Re: UK Charts: Mario Galaxy Jumps Up The Rankings Thanks To A Big-Screen Boost

My biggest gripe with the movie was the lore bit with Rosalina and Peach. I really don't understand why they had to make that change and why there's any reason for it. But I guess that's on Miyamoto san and not caring about lore consistency in the Mario verse in the first place.

Glad to see the games got a sales boost from it, too!

Also happy to see Resident Evil Requiem still soaring the list. I am almost done with my 3rd playthrough. I can't wait for the content updates in May!
