Persona 5 strikers is on sale for 16€ on the Mexican eshop, which is quite a bargain. The problem is I have never played a Persona game before, and I know that the series has quite a unique and distinctive style. I am well versed in RPGs in general, so I was wondering if maybe this is my entry point to the series.

Unfortunately I don't own PS4 or 5 to play Persona 5, so it's either Persona 5 strikers or bust.

Any feedback from Persona fans would be welcome!

@alexwolf Unfortunately i have never played a persona game before but just to make sure since it is also a warriors game. Do you enjoy those kind of games?

@Solaine Yeah I am ok with Mushou games, it's just that Persona strikers is very story heavy, from what I read, and I don't know if the story will be explained well enough to keep me invested.

@alexwolf ah, i see. As far as i know, it is suggested to play Persona 5 before since there are references, not to royal though. Aaand that is all i know, i will leave this to the ones who actually have played both games, sorry for being no help but i am pretty sure you are gonna enjoy it nevertheless, probably more after playing P5

You'll be fine. If you've played other games in the series, great, if not, you'll still really enjoy it. It's actually a really high quality Persona game more than it is Warriors.

There's a lot of ppl who will tell you no no, you gotta play other games first. I am not one of those ppl. Is it advantageous? Sure. Required? Absolutely not. You'll basically just start with a crew of friends, and you'll get to know them throughout the dialog. You'll get the gist of everything through context. It's a wonderful gateway game for fans new to the series on Switch.

@alexwolf It's not as good as the mainline JRPGs, IMO, and it has some story connections to the original game, but if it's this or nothing, better to start with this one, since the story itself is mostly its own thing.

Yeah, I hadn't played any version of Persona 5 & I could follow Strikers story well enough .....

Another little bonus of the OLED that I forgot about: double the on-board storage! Not much, but still a nice little surprise that helps with all those small eShop indies.

Something came to mind regarding Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. You know how games with real cars get delisted after a certain time due to car licensing like for example how Xbox doesn't have a Forza Motorsport game anymore due to all of them being delisted and the new one not being released yet, well Mario Kart 8 also has real cars (the 3 Mercedes ones).

For Mario Kart 8 (Wii U), the Mercedes cars are free DLC so Nintendo could just delist the free DLC and the Wii U version stays on the Wii U eshop though the cars were on the day 1 cart for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe so it may be that within the next few years Mario Kart 8 Deluxe will be delisted from the Switch eshop.

You have a point there, I'm sure that Nintendo has secured a few years though. I reckon Mercedes must be jealous at how many copies of the game have sold, imagine a 7 year old car topping the charts with no extra development!

They're not gonna delist Mario Kart. The most they'd do is release a patch that removes that content from the game.

lol what is this e-mail Nintendo gave me?

"We'd love to hear from you!" clicks link from survey "This survey has reaches its quota and responses are no longer being solicited" It's been four hours. pfft what

"We have no interest in opinions from the only checking e-mail once a day crowd!"

@kkslider5552000 You only check emails once a day? How are you even still alive!?1?

You guys had me at blood and semen.

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

@Grumblevolcano In all seriousness, since Mercedes presumably paid Nintendo to put the car in the game rather than the other way around, there shouldn't be an expiration date, right?

Glad to see the Ezio Collection finally announced!

@IceClimbers
Heck yes. Ezio hype!

Been waiting on this. Now we'll have all the best AC games pre-reboot on Switch. And, even though I'm a digital kind of guy now, I can appreciate that of the 3 Assassin's Creed collections on Switch, each of them puts the main numbered entries on cart- AC2, AC3 and AC4.

It apparently also comes with 2 high quality videos. I love the extra content in the Switch versions of these games. Rebel Collection had all kinds of extra stuff- art pictures, videos, etc.

I wish Batman Arkham Asylum and Arkham City would come to Switch, but WB seems like a lame duck when it comes to porting back catalog to Switch. Still, having all the best AC games on the hybrid OLED is a massive win.

@gcunit I'm terrified of my emails, I use to check them constantly but I was betrayed so many times I changed the password on my account so I'd never seen them again.

I helped a Nigerian prince once who emailed me about a big investment deal but he never paid me back. I met the love of my life who was a huge bewb blonde from Sweden after she sent me an email about how horny she was so I sent her the money for a plane tix but she never showed up at the airport. I won the Canadian lottery after sending them my matching National Insurance, date of birth and mother's maiden name but I never become a millionaire. HRMC was supposed to send me a tax refund but I never got it despte sending them my bank details three times by email.

Emails aren't worth the trouble!!!

Shockingly, I've had very similar emails over the years, @jump ..... I particularly like emails from banks about accounts I didn't even know I had, lol
