@JaxonH Well if Lego Marvel is anywhere near as good as the first one was (the first is one of the best Lego games they've put out) then it should be excellent.
Anyways, the file sizes for RE Revelations 1 and 2 have been revealed. The first one is 13GB, and the second one is 26GB.
Ouch. Revelations 2 is going to have to wait until I can get a bigger SD card. NBA 2K is gonna take up all my space
I wonder, would a 32GB Switch cartridge be able to hold Revelations 2? I know that with memory storage there's always a certain amount amount of unusable space (e.g. 500GB internal hard drive for XB1 has 135GB unusable space) so maybe even if Capcom wanted a cartridge release for Revelations 2, they'd have had to make some of the game downloadable in the same way as BotW on Wii U.
Not gonna post links cause I'm not sure what the forum's policy is on that, but if you buy an eshop giftcard through Paypal's website, it'll give you ten percent off. Great for all y'all who buy digital.
I was considering Revelations 2 but no chance am I using up 20% of my memory card on it.Being download only is going to really hurt its sales at retail and on the Eshop.
@OorWullie It definitely will hurt sales, I'd imagine most Switch users don't have a micro SD card for their Switch let alone it taking up a significant part of some micro SD cards.
Still think it's weird they didn't even try to fit them on a single card. 26GB is pretty big. I also think it's weird how 32GB is the current limit of available cards, but they probably get too expensive if they made them bigger...
@Grumblevolcano Internal memory works differently. All the space on a card is available for the game. So yes, a 26GB game can fit on a 32GB card.
And no, BOTW on the Wii U didn't require downloadable content. Everything is on the disc, everything fits on the disc. The problem the Wii U version is that optical media is too slow, the disc drive cannot load the data fast enough, hence why everything on PS4 and Xbox is a mandatory install. Zelda, and Xenoblade X to a degree, required installs for the same reason. The disc drive wouldn't be able to read and load the game fast enough.
@Octane Why was BotW a forced update then? Of course XCX had optional data packs but you literally couldn't play BotW if you didn't download the update.
@Grumblevolcano Because like I said, disc drives are too slow. XCX and BOTW are arguably the biggest Wii U games in terms of size. They made it work with XCX, but maybe they couldn't with BOTW.
