Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

I think dq builders was already on the voucher list. Hoping Pokemon gets added

@Ninfan
What are you waiting for?
Go get some Nintendo Switch games while waiting for Metroid Prime 4.
I have bought and played 30 Switch games in physical.

@Grumblevolcano
Gosh dang it. Of course, after I already preordered DQ Builders 2 digitally.

I knew it would be added, too. Idk what I was thinking.

@IceClimbers
A lot will be double listings (game + CE), amiibo, hardware bundles with controllers, etc (and one will be that Rollerblade game from Ubisoft, one will be Spyro trilogy, expect FIFA 20 and NBA 2K20, etc which kills a ton of them right off the bat), but I still expect at least half that as new titles announced. Not that that means they are all going to be “new” games. I’m sure quite a few will be ports, as that’s just the reality of a less powerful handheld system. They’re going to cherry pick the popular, successful games to selectively bring over (as a general rule). But as games don’t have expiration dates it’s all the same to me. I’m playing Assassin’s Creed 3 and it may as well be AC Odyssey as far as I’m concerned.

Bet that $200 listing is Pokémon Sword/Shield double pack with Poke-ball, a case and a year of Nintendo Online.

@Ninfan There’s no “Virtual Console” anymore, but there’s alternatives. There’s lots of arcade releases for around $8 usd, and if you have a Nintendo Online subscription, you get a Netflix-type service to many NES games. Around 35 unique titles, I think.

@JaxonH The $200 listing was also listed for the other platforms meaning it's a multiplatform game. A Doom Eternal CE with like a Doomguy statue or something makes the most sense to me.

@Ninfan
Btw...
You are from Ireland, part of UK, right ?
I thought you can speak English better than me.
Sometimes i have some difficulty to digest your comments with not so proper English words.

@IceClimbers It is. I was looking at some stuff on paper today with an SM and ASM. There’s some big Skyrim package, too.

@Anti-Matter in not part of the UK . Maybe I'm using a bit of slang ( like different culture ) .Is that it .I'm sorry I'll keep it simple from now .again I'm sorry for that. I'm from dublin we speak English but it's just were not in Britain .You know if your not in that country everything isn't exactly the same though they both speak English like accent maybe it's that

There’s a fair chance some of the SKUs are NSO bundles for already announced games. Pokemon and Animal Crossing are likely candidates.

@JaxonH Your best bet is to assume all future retail Nintendo published Switch games can be bought with a voucher.

@Grumblevolcano
Ya, I knew DQ Builders was part of it, so of course Builders 2 would be too. Just a mindless oversight I guess. DQXIS will be also, I’m sure.

@IceClimbers
That would be nice, but I’d be surprised given Wolfenstein 2 missed getting the CE on Switch (and the DLC). But... DOOM does seem to be more popular, and Eternal appears to be day and date, so maybe they’re going all in this time.

Oh sweet baby Jesus, no. I was perfectly content with Nintendo showing nothing new at E3, just providing dates for everything we already know about. But 21 new Gamestop SKUs? It's awesome, and equally terrifying. My wallet begs for mercy, Nintendo.

Has anyone bought these vouchers from the Japanese eshop?

Mine has quite literally busted and is now coming apart at the seams.

They killed my freaking wallet

@JaxonH Surely that means you arent spending enough money?

If they confirm that all of their Nintendo-published games will be compatible with the vouchers before the offer expires in July, I think I'll download a second set.

@Ralizah Isn't that time limit only in the US though?

@Knuckles-Fajita Yep. And I live in the U.S.

@Ralizah I don't get why NOA acts so differently to NCL when it's detrimental to do so, but when it's a good idea to do it, they dont.

@Knuckles-Fajita NoA sucks these days. We get stiffed on almost all of the limited editions (including the limited physical print run of Fatal Frame V, which will never not irritate me). We have terrible sales compared to other regions. I've long since concluded that NoA is run by aliens who only tangentially understand what humans actually want.

@Ralizah You mean you don't want 30% off of Mario Kart 8 on Wii U on your birthday? Just in case you want to buy it a second time.
