@NEStalgia Yeah, but there is a reason for the EU at the reveal they said "For price check with your retailers".

@YummyHappyPills That's because we use all kinds of different currencies in Europe, so it's difficult to announce a standard price. Sure, there's the euro, but the UK uses GBP, Denmark uses Danish kroner, Swiss francs in Switszerland, the Czech koruna in the Czech Republic, etc.

If RE: Revelations 2 cost 1p more then I'd use the current '£5 off £20 spend' PayPal offer to buy it.

But as it's not, I can't, so I won't

You guys had me at blood and semen.

What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?

Nothing is true. Everything is permitted.

I challenge anyone to watch this Xenoblade Chronicles 2 GameXplain review and not rush out to preorder when it's done.

Game looks really impressive in handheld mode too.

@gcunit
Use the discount on another game and buy RE Rev 2 separately. Just pretend you got the discount on it instead.

It's worth 20 though. RAID mode alone you'll get your money's worth. You can play it solo or you can play with a friend or a random online, or with a friend locally on separate Switches or splitscreen. And it's crazy awesome fun with the motion controls and HD rumble and reloading gesture (hands-down the coolest use of motion gestures to date and single handedly justifies the IR sensor). These games could have sold $40 a pop and I'd still say they're worth it. But just $19.99? That's basically the price of a cheap indie game.

@JaxonH You know what's funny is that's the first thing I watched or read today X2 related and I'm glad I did. I went in not really caring about the game to I really need this game. It addressed my main complaint about the first game and just his description of the story made me want it that much more.

With that said I dont have time for it this year nor should I buy it this year. I've spent way to much already and still want Zen Pinball and Yooka-Laylee. It will have to wait till next year but that's still pretty good considering I didn't want it at all when I woke up this morning.

@DarthNocturnal @Spoony_Tech

At the very least, the thought must have crossed your mind though... ya? YA? 😉

I'm waiting on physical for Yooka Laylee I think Spoony. At 6 GB I have to be careful with the indie games I download and grab as many of them physically as possible, now that I am making it a point to buy all the top retail games digitally which take up a lot of space. With limited run games and that other company jumping in to make physical releases next year, along with Nicalis and a few others, I'll be grabbing a number of smaller games physically to leave room for the big ones... like Xenoblade 2. Some of these I already bought digitally, and some I'll keep installed as well, but there are a ton of games getting retail releases- Worms, Wonderboy, Yooka Laylee, Rocket League, Shantae Half Genie Hero, Minecraft, Overcooked, Lost Sphear, etc. hopefully Sonic Mania and Steamworld Dig 2 and Shovel Knight at some point.

Just spotted The Sexy Brutale on the Eshop,it releases next week and will cost £17.99 . I've read that it's a really good game. Had a look on Metacritic, it's rated 77%.Jim Sterling awarded 10/10 saying it deserves as much attention as Zelda, Persona 5 and Horizon. Push Square gave it a 9/10. One to look forward to it seems. Riptide Renegade next week too, which is also meant to be good. It's not Waverace and it won't be as good as that but it could scratch that itch a little. It looks a lot better than that other one that just came out. It's a lot cheaper too.

@JaxonH It's still a shame Nintendo hasn't given MK8 Deluxe DLC yet, it's doing so well everywhere since its launch in April and I'm sure plenty of them would want to get even more new tracks, characters and battle arenas. That said, I understand it would distract from other games especially ARMS.

@Grumblevolcano
I think it would contradict the "Deluxe" moniker. Although I personally would be ok with it.

Perhaps there's time for a new F-Zero now to fill that "new racer" gap...

It's been time ever since the Wii. Too bad they won't make one until they come up with a ''unique'' control scheme.

I told myself I'm not going to spend more than $60 on the Switch the rest of the year. I want Xenoblade Chronicles 2. But I will probably also want that Zelda story DLC. And I want to play The Sexy Brutale. And those RE games released recently. And Yooka-Laylee is releasing soon. Not to mention Tiny Metal.

ARGH.

I guess "there are way too many games that I want to play" is a better problem to have than "the next good game is six months away," as often happened with the Wii U.

Currently Playing: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond (NS2); Corpse Factory (PC)

DarkRula

After Star Fox Zero was ridiculed for a 'unique' control scheme, do we really think Nintendo still thinks it needs to do that for F-Zero? I'd say they have been teasing a new game in the series with the MK8 DLC. And speaking of MK8 DLC, it was announced three months before release. Plenty of time for a January Direct to give us details before a March or April release. Though, as said, a Deluxe version is supposed to be a complete edition.

@Ralizah
Self imposed limits suck.

I'd do Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Resident Evil Revelations Collection and Zelda BotW DLC. That's only an extra $60 (cost of one game). And even less with GCU.

This is a rare time for us Nintendo fans with so many good games. Indulge a bit and enjoy it!

@Octane
I think a remaster could be in order. F-Zero GX HD. I'd bite (And be drooling in the process).

@DarkRula If the MK8 DLC was hinting at a new F-Zero then there's going to also going to be a new Excitebike.

Excitebike - Excitebike Arena
F-Zero - Mute City, Big Blue
LoZ - Hyrule Circuit
Animal Crossing - Animal Crossing
Splatoon - Urchin Underpass

LoZ had BotW, Animal Crossing will have a Switch main series game (Nintendo's comments about the mobile game last year basically confirms its existence) and Splatoon has Splatoon 2.

@JaxonH Everyone has different financial situations and commitments though. Personally I try to limit my spending on games because I can only play so many of them and the money can be spent on other things instead.

We're lucky at the moment to have so many high quality options to buy in to on the Switch. There's a diversity of quality that I've not seen on a Nintendo format for a long, long time. Maybe since the SNES.

@Grumblevolcano So, about Animal Crossing. The thing is, Pocket Camp was held back so much that I'm not putting much stock in what they said back then. Who knows how much it changed during its secretive development. As far as I know there's been no mention of connectivity with a console game since Pocket Camp was revealed, and that worries me. It may be a sign that we're not getting AC on Switch for a long time yet. I'd love to be wrong, of course.
