Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

I think with regards to pricing, it’s not the $10 that angers me (I drop $10 in the break room every morning on coffee, oatmeal and a burritski). It’s the principle of the matter that gets under my skin more than anything. It’s the fact they try to take advantage of me, all while not bringing the newer games they should be.

Now. Is it enough to make me not buy the game? Eh. Clearly not since I did pre-order them. As much as it sucks, standing on principle for this just isn’t something I care about more than playing the game. But I am sympathetic towards those willing to stand their ground. And I hope there’s enough of an uproar on social media to get Capcom’s attention. Especially about the motion controls. You wanna charge $10 more because it’s a harder system to port to and unlike the PS4/X1/PC triumvirate, you don’t get a 3 for 1 ROI? Fine. But it least include a few bells and whistle‘s to make people feel like they can justify it. Toss in motion and nobody would’ve complained. Really. They would’ve felt they’re getting their extra moneys worth. I mean, the fact it’s also a hybrid version in and of itself means the game is worth $40 to me ($20 console, $20 handheld) but that should be beside the point because that’s thanks to Nintendo, not Capcom.

Tbh even though I have RE4 on Steam, I think it'll be better if I just buy the Wii version on my Wii U. It seemed really odd to aim with on the PC and it threw me off, so maybe if I play it on the Wii U, it would feel a bit better somehow?

I wanna know how much DMC costs. If its even half the price of what the Trilogy cost at launch I aint in.

I just wanna know if they have plans to port Dawn of Dreams... I think we will get the first 3 games but Dawn of Dreams is the red haired step-child.

@Knuckles-Fajita we still don't know yet if it's physical or just digital right? Or do We know i can't remember. Digital only i can see it being $20. Physical.... prob $30

@Ryu_Niiyama I got the watches by the skin of my teeth. Both times Amazon tried telling me they'd run out and couldn't fulfill my order (long AFTER I successfully ordered them, mind you). Interestingly, they somehow managed to find stock to send to me after some chat convos and phone calls. Some people think you need to be angry, but that's not actually true, and only really punishes poor customer support people in India. The trick is to be persistent and work your way up the chain of command until you get to someone with some level of authority.

Since you're a Japanese myth buff, have you played Ore no Shikabane wo Koete Yuke 2 on the Vita? It's interesting, and practically the only worthwhile exclusive left on the system.

@Ralizah Played the demo to death actually pun intended. There was some reason I never bought it but I can’t remember what it is anymore. I may just snag that during an import binge. I will have to find my vita though.

Edit: While it is better to catch bees with honey rather than vinegar I don't have the time to fight my way up the chain. Honestly its the domestic support that I have had more problems with. Overseas support is chill. But I have been about ready to go through the phone on a few of my countrymen. Which is saying a lot because I try to be very very chill with phone reps.

I must be in the minority around these parts when it comes to gyro in shooters. I tried on Fortnite and the Splatoon demo and I just confuse myself. I liked the aiming on Wii for things like RE4, Red Steel, and MoH Vanguard. Am I just doing gyro wrong? I see a lot of you enjoy it.

@NintendoByNature DMC will be digital only. Hopefully it's $20 and not $30.

If it's $20 I might consider getting it at launch. Then again I still have both Bayonettas to play through and I'll hopefully be playing a ton of the big summer releases by then so I might just hold off.

@IceClimbers Well, I'd like to think it'll be $20 but re 0,1, and 4 say other wise. But then you have onimusha and revelations so who the hell knows

Eco terrorism. That is why all the hipsters likes it.

I would argue the conflicts are mostly about resources in some way or another, but the justification is often something fictional.

And I would argue that in todays world most labour is mostly fictional as well.

I love it when chat gets meta, keep it up.

Nintendo Life is like a box of loot, you never know what you are going to get.

@Therad That explains why I have to keep entering my credit card details just to send a message on here. No wonder I am always broke.

And just like a loot box, you know it’s going to cost you something that’s hard to quantify 😂

Life is sometimes like Pandora's Box.

Life is like Bubba's shrimp gumbo.

You guys are on fire today

@Ralizah Truthfully I don't care about the "poor support people in India". The company shouldn't be fielding their customer service to a country where most people have extremely minimal grasp to the point of being barely functional in the language they make you "press 1" to reach for dealing with complex issues. If I wanted to talk to people that speak some incomprehensible form of English I'd pick a company in Scotland or Wales.
