Looks Like The Studio That Ported LA Noire Is Working On Dark Souls Remastered

@Zuljaras Nintendo is publishing I think...so I reckon it will be ok.

all I want is stable FPS.

@Zuljaras Agreed.

All this does is make me worried that, like with L.A. Nior, we're going to have to download half the game despite buying it physically.. If that's the case I'm not getting it either.

This game is going to be $40. They should be charging $60 especially because they've done some work and are remastering it. If a certain other major company were publishing it you can be guaranteed it would be.

I've missed the chance to play it when it was originally released so I've got my preorder already!
Can't wait to play this game!

@Zuljaras : That is my stance too. I absolutely refuse to buy Resident Evil thanks to Capcom's stinginess. The worst part is that I would have happily paid full price for just Revelations 2 alone. Their budget-priced "collection" is nothing short of insulting, particularly considering that Revelations 2 requires about $20 worth of micro SD storage!

As much as I hate Rockstar for their handling of L.A. Noire, I might consider it only if it's dirt cheap, but even then, I don't want to support them and send them the message that this practice is in any way acceptable.

They should be called Panic Button 2.0 at this point.

@Zuljaras my copy is going directly into the hard drive.

I'm actually enjoying LA Noire.
I have LA Noire to thank for making me go out and buy an SD card, which in turn helped me find that my Switch was a lemon and had a faulty SD card reader.
Nintendo fully replaced my Switch because the fault was so bad.

So thank you LA Noire, I have a shiny new Switch that actually works, otherwise I wouldn't have got an SD card until after my warranty ran out.

Same as you guys I hope it’s not a half digital download as my 128gb card is full and I’m having to archive or delete games to make room.
Tbf I like the archiving feature better then purchasing a new 128gb card as it’s too much hassle to keep switching SIM cards, and I really don’t fancy spending the same price as another switch just to get those bigger sd cards.
So will be purchasing physical only from now where possible.

@sillygostly I bought a 256 gb card for $75. SanDisk ultra something. Just over the price of a new game and your problems are solved for quite a long time. I expect I’ll have a 2tb in a potential upgraded switch someday. It should be a planned expense when buying devices. My PS3-4, Wii U, 3ds, pc, all have extra storage. Why should my switch be different.

I can’t wait wait for dark souls. It was my most played game last gen and it will be worse once I get it on s portable.

So pumped for this!!!!!

I missed Dark Souls the first go around, won't let that happen with the Switch edition.

i want some actual screens

@Zuljaras Dark Souls 3 is 17,3 GB on Steam, so I'm sure it'll be fine.

Dark Souls Remastered!!!!!

I am enjoying L.A. Noire and haven't had any problems with it.

@Donutman

256 here and yeah, it's plenty of room unless you buy a ton of games.

the only issue is these console companies like to tear down everything between gens and make folks rebuy. so carts may last longer down the road but the consoles since about the ps1 were so finiky they never lasted long anyway. no one is going to be playing a switch cart of xyz game in 10 years since most switches probably won't even work by then.

this ain't your old snes or genesis here. look how bad ps1/2's were not to mention 360s. barely lasted the full gen; let alone long into the future.

@Donutman : You've missed the point. The game in its entirety is not on the cartridge. I pointed out the added storage cost to put the practice into further perspective, as it significantly drives up the cost of the software with absolutely no benefit to the consumer.

@QwertyQwerty it didn't run all that good on the PS3 when I originally played it either.

They did a reasonable job porting a title that wasn't all that well made to begin with.

Great, so it will be a 32 gig install or more? At least this is something I want to play again, unlike LA Bore, so I guess I'll have to bite on this.

@sillygostly I’m not missing the point, respectfully, I think you are. If it means that we dont get the game at all because of the cost of a bigger card makes it not feasible, then of well. Plenty of my ps games need mandatory downloads before they are able to play.

@sword_9mm not counting Labo , Nintendo makes quality products that will be able to be use for years. My Wii works, my Wii U does, even my bro and I GameCube still working. He has that. My n64 still works. I just sold my old fat gameboy a year ago with its 20+ games and it’s ganeboy light that still worked. I can’t speak for ps1 or Sega since I didn’t own those. My old ps2 still worked last time I used it. I expect my switch up be working in 10 years.

@Donutman

i've had multiple 360s die.
my ps2 doesn't like to read some discs.
my og gameboy's screen only shows about 1/5 the pixels.

my old 3do, genesis, snes, and neo geo do work. who knows though.

This is more like bad news not good news.

Im torn about Dark Souls. I played the xbox360 version, got to the first dragon and quit in frustration. Maybe it isnt for me or maybe I just need to try harder. Idk. Lol.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE Now that's some sarcasm I can get behind.

all I want is stable FPS.

This reason I boycott Switch games with large install sizes is not that I am opposed to digital distribution, but that storage is disproportionately more expensive for Switch. $60 gets you either a 128GB Micro SD card or a 2TB external hard drive. It was Nintendo's choice to use cartridges for the Switch. That burden of costs should be on the manufacturer not the consumer, or the third party publisher.

@GraveLordXD if 25 years from now my switch still works fine expect for the battery, I’d be ok with that. My last laptop battery lasted 3 years. Now it just stays plugged in all the time. Heck, you could still play in portable with it plugged in.

That L.A Noire port was not good, Hopefully the Dark Souls Remastered port is better.
I was planning on pre-ordering the Switch version, but after learning the that Virtuos will be handling the port I don't know if I'll buying it at all.

@Zuljaras "...and now I will find Revelation 2 for the PS Vita."
Please reconsider that decision. The Vita version of Revelations 2 is garbage. Horrible graphics and horrendous sound quality does not make for a quality experience. That is a purchase that I deeply regret.

Please do something better with this one ...

@Luke937

i'd agree with that BUT a disc system (a la the failed psp) would've been far worse imo.

N just needs to give the carts away and eat the cost.
