A Day-One Update For Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury Is Now Live (Version 1.1.0)

Ah yes, the classic day one patch. I can't think of a major Nintendo game in recent memory to not have one.

this is such a great game. Nintendo started the year off with its first AAA title. cannot wait to play Bowsers Fury. and this is just the beginning. MORE triple AAA titles to keep coming. 2021 is once again going to belong to Nintendo.PS5 first AAA game for 2021? IN JUNE???? RATCHET AND CLANK. switch will have 3d mario, Bravely Default 2, Monster Hunter Rise, Pokemon Snap. and who knows what else. A great way to start off the year. Great job Nintendo.

I can sleep easy tonight knowing that this patch has been implemented. Thank you, Nintendo overlords. 🙏🏻

Day 1 patch? Cue raw, unrestrained, bloodthirsty outrage! The internet demands nothing short of 117% perfection right out the gate!

Or we could just download the update and enjoy the game, that works too.

I enjoy 3d world a little more than odyssey

....But it's not midnight yet...
checks and tries to play game
....Alright then, cool. lol

I’m sorry; no mention of stability. No way I’m downloading it then!

@TruthisRare Both are great games on their own. 3D World is a better for multiplayer, Odyssey is a better single player game.

@sanderev
Games are subjective though. I loved mario 64, galaxy 1 & 2, 3d world etc.
I find i always go back to those games, but with odyssey, i dont bother.
Odyssey is still a great quality game, i just found its worlds a bit boring (apart from donk city)

Bloody predictable.

I love the game to bits, but, really...

@TruthisRare I disagree there, I have now completed Odyssey 3 times with new save games. (Going back, trying to improve myself, etc) While I only completed 3D World once. However I mostly game by myself.

Galaxy 1 and 2 I never actually completed after getting stuck in a later level. Due to it's terrible Wii controls. Mario 64 I also never really completed, because I really didn't like it that much.

With the 3D Collection I'm finally on the way to complete Galaxy 1 right now. Where I've already stopped replaying Mario 64 and Sunshine on it.

I gave 3D World (Wii U) a 9,100 and Odyssey a 9,721.

Gasp! Whatever happened to the infamous Miyamoto “delay it until it’s ready” stance!?!?!!!?!

The snappy movement is such an improvement. Worth the double dip for that alone. And the portable play is so much more crisp compared to the former off-tv play

@RandomGamesAndStuff you mean "I can't think of ANY GAME ON ANY CONSOLE in recent memory to not have one.

@sanderev

My original post was just my opinion, it was not an absolute statement about mario 3d being a better game, i only said i enjoy it more than odyssey, im not saying its a better game.
Opinions man, there are different ones than yours you know.

@TruthisRare Same! Both truly great games, and each has some unique special moments but 3D World just has a little more charm, fun and easily the best end game content of any Mario game - something Odyssey really lacked.

Not in any rush to play this again.
I'm going to hold off until I can grab a pre owned copy to make sure Nintendo doesn't get any money from me for a port I already own.

Anyone played this yet? I heard u need to use gyro to activate some platforms, i dont have gyro my joycons are drifting and broken so i use 3rd party *****. Is there anyway to activate the platforms without gyro? Specifically in handheld mode, maybe touchscreen?

@michellelynn0976 are you crazy? Nintendo does nothing else than bringing old stuff for full price. And what line up are you talking about? This is 1 Wii U port, there's no mayor title in sight for this year.
And i guess, you don't have a PS5, because your words are total *****. If 1 system delivers right now, it's Sony.

@michellelynn0976 I have each of the major consoles and to be honest I'm not worried I have to waith on Ratchet and Clank when my backlog of big PS4 exclusives is still so extensive.

Yeah, that's it. I'm also really looking forward to Ratchet and Clank, but still have to do with other games until that comes out. Besides, some other nice games are coming before that. Like Returnal, Resident Evil 8, Guilty Gear Strive,... But yeah, Nintendo is so cleaning the floor with PS5 and XBox 😂 with Pokemon Snap on the horizon, oh yeah😉

I'm 3.5 hours deep into the game right now. I didn't have a U so this is my first playthough and so far I'm loving it. I'm trying to 100% each stage w/o any guides before I move on so I'm only 2 stages into world 2.

@Nintendo4Sonic,

The game is brand new for the majority of Switch owners though, Mario 3D world only sold around 6 million copies on the Wii U.

Both next generation consoles are very impressive, but I don't think anyone can suggest they have tonnes of exclusive content for them.

@michellelynn0976
Let’s not get to carried away have owned every Nintendo console. And currently I’m slightly
Disappointed. We have not had NEW AAA big hitting game from Nintendo in house studios for ages. At the beginning it was amazing BOTW, Mario Ods etc from in house.
But last year from in house was weak and so far this year is. Mario 3d world played on the wii u, it’s just another remake.
You are letting Nintendo in house studios off very lightly.

@johnvboy why not, in terms of exclusives, the PS5 does pretty good so far. Not to forget Sackboy and Spiderman or Demon Souls.

In my option Nintendo have hit their in house studios lazy time, like they always do with there home consoles. But they can afford to, Switch sells loads no matter what, remember though Nintendo, resting on your laurels can bite you bad in the end.

Additionally playing Bowsers Fury docked on my 65” top tv as good as the tv is.
720p is really starting to show the limits of the console. I mean for today’s standards the game is nothing graphically really and it’s hardly a open world.

@Nintendo4Sonic,

They are all decent games, but not something I would personally rush out and buy a console for, which to be honest is pretty much the same for most console launches, just an opinion.

Don’t get me wrong.
I just dream of a BOTW 2 in lavish graphical world with 4K, hdr, maybe ray tracing and super intelligent AI, Dolby surround etc etc.
But like that’s never going to happen 😢

@Nintendo4Sonic how on Earth is Sony delivering right now? Their next big game is Ratchet which isn’t out until June, couple this with no original titles available right now and a complete lack of actual stock and they are far from ‘delivering’

@gaga64 Because most of the time it meant he delayed it for minor cosmetic issues making a big royal deal. NO NO NO!!!! He would say over the tiniest speck on a random NPC's face you'll forget a day later. Something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sc6a1Nzf4M4 My favorite is the 'Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh No!". This is how I feel Nintendo thinks about announcing any new Zelda titles before release.

I hope they don't just sneak out the games without telling anybody.

@Dezzy70 Reminds me of all these ways you can say no. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sc6a1Nzf4M4 Zoombinis Captain Cajun's Ferryboat - Bad Seat

@Mr-Fuggles777

But your still gonna buy it and it will still be near enough full price as its Nintendo first party game which will show there is demand for full price ports of previous gen games so nothing changes.

Way to take a stand!

@RickD,

I think the sales of this will surprise us all, there were only 6 million people that bought the Wii U original, and with the massive Switch install base, this has real potential.

@michellelynn0976 you can't help but mention ps5 in nearly all your posts. I find it funny. It's great that Nintendo are doing well but the game output since animal crossing (180hrs and counting) has been poor in my opinion. Its obvious ratchet and clank got delayed by what's happening in the work is at the mo, I don't mind, rather have a great finished product. And we have Returnal, deathloop, Kena Bridge of spirits, Outriders and the new Resident Evil coming before that so think I'll have plenty to play.

@RickD

Pikmin 3 Switch is now the highest selling Pikmin game ever.

Mario 3D World Switch will sell over 10 million easy.

@HamatoYoshi Geez, what's your problem? Comparing PS5 to Switch is like "Boot vs Ant".
The Playstation systems gets so many AAA games every year, in the Game of the Year awards, the top places are always Playstation exclusives. The PS5 startet with several great titles, with 5 or so Playstation exclusives and things are going on.
The PS5 is like the god under the consoles.

@Nintendo4Sonic

Shut up.

Your as bad as the Nintendo zealot michellelynn.

Two sides of one wingnut coin.

At the end of the day gamers.
We need Nintendo, we need Sony.
Hopefully competition will keep them both on the straight and narrow and it will benefit us the gamer. As for Microsoft that’s the monopoly company we really need to worry about, buying up loads of studios and possibly creating that monopoly. They should make their own studios not steal so many third party ones.

@HamatoYoshi the stock issues are because of a world wide shortage of semiconductors, Microsoft are having the same problems. Both are making them as fast as they can. Hard times for everyone right now. Plus Sony have given us the best controller I've ever used and makes certain games feel amazing to play. And games wise, I've just had 6 great games dropped on PS plus in the last 2 months. All the 1st and 3rd party games since launch and now I have Returnal, deathloop, Kena Bridge of spirits (all exclusives), outriders and Resident Evil to look forward to before Ratchet and clank comes out. Its great Nintendo are doing so amazing, long may it continue, I want them all to do well because then we all win as gamers.

@Nintendo4Sonic go back to your initial comment that you made and read it again. You stated Sony is the only console delivering right now, then read my comment again in the context of your statement.
I actually own a PS5 and personally wish I’d never wasted the £500 on it

@Dezzy70 it is worrying that Microsoft has the money to literally buy anyone. And I say this owning a series x as well as the other two. Will be interesting to see what happens when the EU antitrust regulators decide on the Bethesda deal in March. If Microsoft keeps going this way they will have a Monopoly and that's not going to be good for anyone.

Why are console wars comments still a thing? Buy what you want, enjoy what you want and stop being ten year olds.

I love my Switch for the Nintendo Classics and local multiplayer fun.
I love my PS5 for the sheer power and potential as well as the great ps4 games.
I love my Seires S as I can finally play Overwatch with ,y brother and because of Games Pass I've discovered Forza Horizon which I'm hooked to. They all have pros and cons. Living and dying by one or the other is just stupid.

@Serialsid I completely agree the PS5 is probably the best controller ever, I’m just a tad disappointed with the console right now, i feel like I felt when I moved from PS3 to PS4 but I guess from past experiences lack of software happens with every console launch. I also agree it’s a brilliant time to be a gamer

@Nintendo4Sonic Wdym? No major title in sight? The guy you answered to just named Bravely Default 2, Monster Hunter Rise and New Pokemon Snap. And then there's also Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town. That are major titles, fact.

@Jedge396 just came here to say you own all 3 consoles!

@TheFullAndy it will be close to full price but Nintendo doesn't get any money from the sale - the reseller (Game or CEX) will get the profits instead, which is fine by me as it keeps the stores open.
I've also got a pile of switch games I'm not playing so could trade those and get this game for free.

@HamatoYoshi Not at all. But you cared enough to comment i/

@Jedge396 of course! Wish I had the time to play 2 consoles, let alone 3!

@HamatoYoshi that is the challenge. Switch hasn't had a lot of use recently though my wife uses it a lot. Overwatch a few times a week is the main way I've kept in touch with my brother so it's been great for that. PS5 hasn't been overly used for PS5 games since i finished Miles Morales. Just playing some of the older exclusives when i get a chance.

I appreciate that. Thank you

*edited thanks to thank... poor typos annoy me lol

@Jedge396 is worth buying the two DLC's for horizon 4, the lego one is a right laugh. My favourite driving game of all time now.

@Serialsid thanks for the advice. Never really been into racing games since like burnout 3 but really enjoying it so far!

@Mr-Fuggles777

Still after all your complaining yesterday seems strange you would pick it up at all!

@TheFullAndy I was complaining about the contents of the review and the integrity of the reviewer not the game.

@Mr-Fuggles777

Because you clearly thought the game wasn't worth the score.

You criticise someone's review because they rated it max score despite some issues that they highlighted so people were informed and even called out their credibility. But it turns out you are still going to pick up the game anyway so all that ranting was for nowt really.

But hey, you do you.

Postman is taking his time

@Heavyarms55 Urgh....despair. Preorder cancelled and all that jazz...

@Serialsid
One good thing is Nintendo and Sony and the Japanese government would never let them touch them and their in house studios so that’s good news. And we know Sony and Nintendo games are the best there is.

@1UP_MARIO I live in rural NI and got tired of not receiving pre orders day one. Got a lot more digital since they let me down with Pokemon Sword

@BTB20 Pokemon Snap is a kids game. And the rest is stuff, not everyone likes to play. I'm absolutely not interested in stuff like Bravely Default. I would rather play Final Fantasy 7 Remake, before I play Monster Hunter or Bravely Default

@TheFullAndy Wtf? Who are you and whats wrong with you?

@Nintendo4Sonic

No problem with me mate, you're the one with issues.

Go back to worshipping your PS5 god.

Aha, because I have an opinion, I now have "issues".
Andy, you have a problem. Let your Lockdown frustration out somewhere else, you victim.

@Nintendo4Sonic

No problem with opinions but when you start saying "Boot vs Ant" and "PS5 is like the god" then you got issues bud.

It's just videogames son.

Hopefully they patch the sticker select menu and make it much easier to select them in snapshot mode, than having to flick through the entire list to choose one.

I don't decline Nintendo. I grew up with Nintendo since I can think. And I own a Switch and my copy of Mario 3D World will arrive today with Amazon. Just to make that clear.

But Nintendo is really lazy, last year wasn't that good in terms of Nintendos games. They are just porting old stuff.
And yeah, compared to a PS5, the Switch is an ant. Nintendo lies so much back in terms of hardware. And Sony just has the best exclusive games + an awesome choice of awesome 3rd party games. The Switch can't touch that.

@Nintendo4Sonic

I don't care bud.

Playing this now, loving it!!!! Had it on Wii U and so glad its finally on switch. Will save bowsers fury for tomorrow!

Victim, just victim😂

@Nintendo4Sonic

At least have the common courtesy to tag me you wingnut or are you scared of a reply?

@TheFullAndy oh yeah, I'm really scared of an answer from a Nintendo boy from somewhere 😂

@Nintendo4Sonic

Actually I love both my PS4 and my Switch and will get a PS5 when it is available. I'm just, you know, not a complete numpty about it.

@TheFullAndy what's wrong hot shot? I thought you you don't care, what I'm saying.

@Nintendo4Sonic

I do care, deeply. More than you will ever know good friend.

I played through 3D world before on the Wii U but so glad I doubled dipped as I seem to have forgotten so much of it!! Is anyone else finding the Amiibo recognition a bit wonky?

@Nintendo4Sonic New Pokemon Snap is a major upcoming title, that doesn't change because you think it's only for kids.
Returnal also isn't something I want to play, but it's still the next upcoming big PS5 exclusive afaik. And that only on April 30th, while the next Switch exclusive is in two weeks, three exclusives in two days to be exact. That's all I wanted to say. You said there are no upcoming titles for the Switch and you are factually wrong. It's a fact, not an opinion. Maybe next time say that there are no upcoming titles you are interested in.
Btw Monster Hunter Rise is a highly anticipated game and will sell alot.

Yes, I need to update this great game, but first, need to get the game..., Amazon has my game delayed... sigh

@Serialsid some of those games you can play on other systems. And, Sony's 1st party games are 70 bucks.

@Juga exactly.

@Nintendo4Sonic if you want movie games with little to no gameplay. Sony hasn't been good for over a decade, but blinded fans keep Sony to abuse their power and keep being mediocre. Nothing but old games? Lou remastered, SOC, and Sony said they are releasing a lot more older games. For full price. So, no I am not crazy. You just can't see light because of where you are with Sony.

@Jedge396 Cool, but 70 bucks for first party games? The Wii U was backward compatible, why didn't that satisfy gamers?

@michellelynn0976 What *****, ok, I can't take you seriously. Just dumb talk.

@michellelynn0976 so they're 70 bucks, who cares? As long as you get value for money. I paid £50 for kirby and my boy beat it in 5 hours? Super Mario wii u deluxe was full price and he beat that in 9. Bless you saying Sony haven't been good for 10 years when they've just sold 116 million consoles and have had game of the year nearly every year. Some of the best games I've ever played we're on ps4, you don't like them fine that's your opinion. Its all silly anyway as they are 3 very successful companies worth billions, all have shady practice's, and all only care about the money. I'll play great games on whatever system they are on, don't care about the shape of the box.

About Mario 3D World.
I really like Bowsers Fury so far, really lovely made and great graphics for a Switch game.

But I'm a little bit disappointed about 3D World. The graphics are almost the same as on Wii U, I don't really see the 1080p. And as a 2 player game with my girlfriend, it's not that optimized

@Nintendo4Sonic is it worth getting for bowser fury? My boy wants to play that but has no interest in 3d world again.

@Nintendo4Sonic Go to Google and lookup "videogames in 2021 wikipedia". Click on the Wikipedia link and look through it. There's also a list for 2022. Now tell us what exactly the PS5, or specifically Sony, is delivering...

For my taste... I only see Hogwarts Legacy, Neptunia ReVerse and Final Fantasy XVI. None of them are from Sony, afaik. All other games I would be interested in are for PS4. A lot of them are coming to Switch and some previous PS4 games are coming to Switch too, because Japan is currently mad at Sony because of the course PlayStation (HQ is in California since 2016. Full Hyprocrisy Ahead! Choo chooo!!) is taking. For example that they entirely BLOCK releases of some Japanese games for reason that are beyond hypocrisy, because you can see far more worse and literally disturbing things in western games, but nobody cares about that because the west are "the good guys" and anime girls are evil... That evil anime girl wanted to hug you ONCE in a game series that takes you like 400 hours to 100%? You wanted to headpat her once? TO THE HORNY JAIL WITH YOU!!

Better play Dragon Age or Assassins Creed, where you even get rewarded with a trophy for having... a two people based adult activity. Or play Cyberpunk, where you can go to an... adult entertainment house, or some random women on the street ask you if you want to have a nice time. Or play GTA5, where you need to be... extra nice to a guy you bound to a chair to progress the story (Really wished there would have been a button to skip that scene... I'm in my 30s, but that scene made me really uncomfy...). In that game you can also go to an adult entertainment house, heck, you can even take girls with you into a bush, play with them and then put them to sleep to steal the money you voluntarily gave them. So nice... Or how about TLOU2, where you need to watch how your father gets removed from existence with a golfclub petting his head? And why do western games have so many targets, that often look like humans, you can make take a nap... with firearms?

But... you dare to give Altina an... omg... headpat?? That's SO inappropiate!!!1 You're DiSgusTäng!!1! > JaPaN BAD!!!1 #metoo

...Hope I worded that childfriendly enough.
But, really... I don't see what could make the PS5 interesting. And I was kinda generous already, because Neptunia ReVerse for PS5 is a remaster of Neptunia Re;Birth1 Plus from PS4, which is a remaster of Neptunia Re;Birth1 from Vita, which was a remake of the original Hyperdimension Neptunia from PS3. Apparently people really like the first game... Personally I would rather go with the third game. Rei Ryghts is a very interesting woman. Also far more crazy and brainf-d (at least in Japanese. That voice acting is just perfection...) than Vaas from FarCry3 could ever be in his dreams...

@Altina

Where have all you anti PS5 zealots sprung from?!

You all sound like a bunch of freaks and I am guessing that you, michellelynn and the rest are all the same person.

Get.A.Life.

Bowser's Fury is a masterpiece. Nintendo does it again!

I mean....they're not wrong @bimmy-lee @hobbitgamer

@Nintendo4Sonic This is a very fanboy fueled site, dont bother having your console war esque arguments here unless you like speaking within a brick wall. Saves braincells just laughing it off.

@Xenjamin I can confirm you need gyro to activate platforms that were originally for the touchscreen if the Gamepad. You bring a cursor when you press R.

Nintendo day one patches are always so tiny in size that I don't mind in the slightest.

Played a bit last night. Great fun.

p is for PINGUS!!

Fu*k me. What has this site become. Gone are the days where you could browse the comments and have an intuitive conversation with other members despite your stance on a review or a game. Full of idiotic comments from fan boys crusading for their console of choice and feeling they need to justify their purchase whilst forcing their (very often clueless) opinions down each others throat. Absolutely shameless! Does it matter what console you have, really? You love ps4, awsome. You love the switch, amazing! Xbox floats your boat? Good for you. At the end of the day we dont owe loyalty to any company. All they care about is getting our money and nothing more. You really think N, MS or S are going to to give you a pat on the back for sheer dedication and loyalty? We are all gamers at the end of the day and should appreciate games as a whole whatever console(s) we own and favour. Each of the 3 big boys have amazing exclusive games, past, present and future, whatever way you look at it and try to argue they dont and that is a FACT. Its all just pitchforks and petty playground insults. Grow the F up and go play a game and think about how lucky we are even to have this entertainment during this awful time. Life could be alot worse for each and every one of us!
Peace.

Not sure why these minor issues are getting past game testing?

@Serialsid I wouldn't buy it just for Bowsers Fury, that's too expensive.
Or sell the Wii U Version, if you can.
Best wishes

@Ardisan Yeah, I noticed that in the meantime. Pretty creepy.

@Altina I stopped reading after a few sentences. You wasted your time for nothing

The patch is tiny. Calm down and enjoy the game. Good grief

@TheFullAndy Yes, because I like different things than you I'm a zealot, a freak, have no life and waste my time with having multiple accounts. Makes perfectly sense, Sir NiceGuy.

@Nintendo4Sonic Huh... Conversation is a waste of time to you? Basically, I was asking you for your opinion. Sorry about that, not going to do that again. Promise. But I'm feeling kinda sorry for you.

Got it yesterday, loving it already 😍

Took only a minute. I don't mind. It's not like these crazy 30GB patches on the "big" consoles these days.

@TruthisRare I also like 3d World better. I like the tighter focus on gameplay not collecting. To be honest I would like to see more Mario in this format.

While this is a pretty cool release, and I will double dip for sure, it has been a while since I have been really fired up over a first party game. Excitement level is about a 7 on a scale of one to ten.

Good thing the console wars are over. I'm so glad gaming has matured enough for us to move past those embarrassing scenes where PS2 fans, XBox fans and Gamecube fans would endlessly bicker and insult each other. Gaming really is a mature artistic medium for adults now, and we can all enjoy healthy, intellectual debate about the philosophical merits of the games instead of acting like five-year-olds.

In some universe, at least.

Reading this comment section, it's like I'm all the way back to 1996. Some part of me misses the old console wars.

@michellelynn0976
Um... Pardon me, madam. 😕
What makes you jump into conclusion that PS5 has No games, 1st party of PS5 games with $70 are suck, mentioning Wii U BC was better than PS5 BC ?

@Narrator1 @JasmineDragon
I felt embarrassed to see console wars comment like that. 😑

@Nintendo4Sonic
"Pokemon Snap is a kids game."

Just because the game targeted for kids, it doesn't mean adult are not allowed to play that game.
I am 36 years old male gamer and i will get that game for sure. It looks cute, beautiful and relaxing.

@Altina
Hello, madam.
I think you are new people here.
I think i have some PS5 games i want to buy such as Overcooked All You Can Eat, Planet Coaster, Spirit of the North, Override 2, etc.
Well, i only play games for kids and teen so i choose the games carefully and i will try to get the games first and the machine will be later until there is PS5 Slim with White color and cheaper price.

Oh, btw. Back to topic about Bowser's Fury.
I will not get the game at Day One as i have finished the Wii U version several months ago but i will consider it several months later as i still keep building my other machines games on this year.

And please have nice conversations here.

I'd want a PS5, but not until at least one hardware revision and not until I don't have to fight scalpers for the chance to get one.

@Anti-Matter I am someone who likes to speak my mind. Right now? No, they have none.

@TheFullAndy What? No, I am one person. How do I know you and the others going after me aren't all the same person? Geez. You talk about me. Get a life.

@Nintendo4Sonic Grow up. None of you have bought any decent argument.

@Serialsid No, you don't. So, everyone crying about Mario 3D World should just not say anything? Right?

@michellelynn0976
Are you sure ?
Because these PS5 games really caught my interest.

@Anti-Matter I didn't say, Pokemon Snap will be a bad game! Actually I find this more interesting than the regular Pokemon games. But this is far from being an AAA title. And it's a game that's targeted on kids

@Anti-Matter Those look nice. But, they won't sell to the PS fanbase. So, I didn't know about these games. I still think 70 for Sony 1st party games is too much. Also, I am not paying 500 for a new system just to play them.

@Nintendo4Sonic
Well, i don't mind if the game is not AAA as i prefer casual games.
Even the game is targeted for kids, but when talking about Photography, adult gamers can take great snap shots like professional photographer.

@michellelynn0976
I can always wait until price drop.
I'm not in hurry to get PS5 machine as PS machines oftenly have their issues from 1st model so i will wait until there is slim model with better specs and cheaper price.
And for $70 PS5 games, i'm sure i can find cheaper price after several months later or i can pick the second handed games.
PS5 is not even 1 year so take it easy.

@michellelynn0976 how do you know they won't sell to the PS5 players, who made you the oracle of ps5 owners? You might be right about 70 being to much, but the market will decide, the players will decide. That's the beautiful thing about free markets, if people don't buy then they'll have to change. But I've been gaming over 30 years, and the price of games hasn't changed in years. Producing these games costs more and more every year, so games prices are going to go up at some point. Hell, halo infinite production costs are around 500 million apparently, things cost more these days. Anyway I'm sure Sony is not going to miss your 500 dollars, you spend it on Nintendos great games, plenty to pick from. I'll also buy the next great Nintendo games when they come out and carry on playing my ps5 that somehow has a hard drive full of varied games!

@CromAstronomy

Agreed. Odyssey is still a great game, but i find the more focused star hunting in games like 3d world, galaxy etc way more fun

@Anti-Matter I was not easy on Nintendo with the Wii U, I won't take it easy on Sony.

@Serialsid because none of the PS5 games have sold and It is the history of the games they buy. Overcooked never did well on PS, so that is an example. Why are some of you so defensive over Sony? Really? It is like Sony is a sacred cow or something. Dreams didn't do that well and Concrete Genie did eh.

@Serialsid The problem with Sony is people like you. Nintendo had to learn from the Wii U not doing well. Nintendo did horrible with the Wii U, so I am glad people let them have it. Sony is now being sued for the drift and faulty hardware. How did they get here? Look in the mirror.

@michellelynn0976
Well, madam.
Despite there are some PS4 games not really selling well, at least there are some peoples who still want to buy those games regardless they are best seller or not.
Games are very subjective, the games that sold very poor might be a favorite thing for someone. I have some mediocre PS3 and PS4 games, they are not even best seller but i have interest with them because i'm interested with the genre and gameplay from those games.
It just a game, take it easy.

Also, about PS5 hardware issues, i'm sure Sony will handle that situation immediately. Every electronic device company will always have issues with their products, it's their job to solve the issues.
I suggest you to wait several years later and see some progress from PS5. I'm sure PS5 will be worthy purchase after several years later. Right now maybe not really worthy but you can invest by purchase the games first.

To tell you, i bought PS4 Slim on April 2018 (5 years after PS4 release) and PS3 Slim on December 2019 (10 years after PS3 Slim release).
Very late but i got the best machine models just like i want (PS3 Slim White and PS4 Slim White).
I felt granted to able play PS3 and PS4 games with quite a lot games to be choosen. I'm sure i will get more choices for PS5 games after several years.

@Slowdive
I think Shigeru Miyamoto was still insist with same old Mario styles idea.
I would like to see next Mario games goes Ratchet & Clank style (kids friendly weapons and the partner) or Sly Cooper style (Mario gangs become secret agents).

@Miu No. The drift has gotten better. PS5 is now being sued. Their online is improving, they get more 3rd party games, and Nintendo is making new IPs. PS4 drifted, PS4 broke a lot and you act like it doesn't happen. PSN crashes all the time.

@Anti-Matter If it is only games, why do so many on here get butt hurt over me criticizing Sony? Of course Nintendo deserves theie criticism, but Sony is no sacred cow. Get over it people.

"PS4 drifted, PS4 broke a lot and you act like it doesn't happen. PSN crashes all the time."

My PS4 Slim and controller are totally fine.
I didn't even experinced with crashing during entering PS4 Store. If you still have PS4 machine, maybe you should check again the internet connection.

Every electronics devices might have their issues, that was natural.
Just take it easy, Sony will solve that issues. I'm sure you want to see some progression from PS5.
Also, Nintendo itself is not 100% Perfect.
I knew that.
You should remember that too.
I love all my video games (Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft), they are my precious gems with their strengths and flaws. I will welcome PS5 machine several years later once i get enough budget to buy better specs PS5.
And i think you will looks great by supporting both Nintendo and Sony regardless of their flaws.

@TruthisRare Thank you! 3D World is definitely the better game IMO. Now if only we could get an HD version of 3D Land with Super Princess Daisy as the bonus game

@Anti-Matter Hello Sir. Yes, I'm new here.
There is nothing wrong with playing "kids games". Nearly always doing that myself, because they're in my opinion more enjoyable. Every time when I try an "adult game" I'm shocked how violent and sexual they're. Like, a friend gifted me FarCry New Dawn. Ubisoft Club said that I killed over 1000 HUMANS. In a game that's short like that... Or take GTA5. It came with my PS3. I have played all of them, including the GBA and PSP titles, but, well, lets just say that GTA5 was my last GTA... Or, have you played Dragon Age? When you hit a RAT with your FIST you're covered in blood from head to toes. And none of the characters care. Uhm... And why can you do "adult acitivites" with all your friends? Do people really ask for this feature? In the second game the game made me kill so many people at night, I feel like I removed the entire city at least three times... Really. Why is in the west everything so violent and sexual? And why are in the west "trash mobs" always humans? Is a human life really worth nothing in the west?
So... I'm with "kids games" and Japan. That's way more comfortable and enjoyable for me. They often have better character designs, better written characters, better stories and music anyway.

But thank you for your opinion. And for replying peacefully. That was all I asked. I don't know why cancel-culture is so intense these days that many people even attack you when you ask them what their opinion is...
Though, from the games you mentioned...
Overcooked and Overcooked 2 are on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Windows. (All You Can Eat is a compilation.)
Planet Coaster is on Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5, macOS.
Spirit of the North is on PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch and Windows.
Override 2 is on Windows, Xbox One and PlayStation 4.

I don't see why you need a PS5 for these. I'm not an "anti PS5 zealot and freak without life" just because PS5 has no games. It isn't about console wars, and fanboyism, it's about games. And the PS5 has none. That isn't really my fault. At first I wanted to wait until 2025 before getting a PS5. But PlayStation America is currently on a war with their own mother company and Japan. And because these are the games I'm mostly interested in, well, I don't see a reason for me anymore to wait on a PS5 and went with Nintendo. Simple as that. I go where the games are. I don't care what brand is on the console. So, I feel kinda misunderstood by the other people here...
And if I have time for other games besides Japan and "kids games", well, the XBox Series S is only 300€ and I don't have a 4K screen, so it's good enough.

@Altina
Well, i only play kids games, rated E and E10+ by 97%, 3% for certain Teen games such as The Sims, Final Fantasy games, etc.
I am big fan of Kiddie games, Girlie games, Dance Dance Revolution, Konami's Rhythm games, something Chibi and cartoonish.
I don't even play rated 18+ games. All my games collection just only rated E, E10+ games and few of Teen games.

About PS5, i still wait and see their machine progress while at the same time i found 6 PS5 games to be considered. The PS5 games in my radar are Overcooked All You Can Eat, Planet Coaster, Spirit of the North, Override 2, Oceanhorn 2, Ratchet & Clank Rift Apart. They are still kids friendly games, no rated 18+ games at all.
The reason i choose the PS5 version instead of PS4 version because i want those games running smoothly with faster loading time. Also, i will have some PS5 starter games before getting PS5 machine.

@Anti-Matter That's totally fine. Stay yourself. It's your opinion, your taste, your decision. Don't let anyone ruin them. Just because everyone(TM) is hyping about eg Cyberpunk doesn't mean that you need to be interested in that too. It's good to see sometimes people that have their own interests. There's absolutely nothing wrong about it, because even though humans try to norm each other, by nature we're individuals and not machines... So, don't worry. And, really, some people even attacked me for not being interested in Cyberpunk at all. Should that convince me to play the game, or what?

In the end we're all gamers and just want to have a nice time (I guess?). Play what YOU want. In this regard other people and their opinions don't matter. It also doesn't matter what color our plastic box is.

If I could get my hands on a PS5, the games I'd be most interested in would be Final Fantasy XVI, probably Bugsnax, that one game with Sackboy playing with three other Sackboys, and maybe replaying Ghost of Tsushima at 60fps. I have zero interest in anything Souls, so that rules out the Demon's Souls.

Most everything else I saw at the final PS5 reveal stream looked interchangeable to me. As I have mentioned on other forums, at least three of the PS5 games shown on that stream had characters jumping through rifts in spacetime, purely as if to show off SSD load speeds and ray tracing.

Edit: Apparently Monster Hunter World hits 60fps in both Resolution and Performance modes on the PS5. That would be another incentive, especially if you could play with PS4 people without issue.

@michellelynn0976 so spiderman MM being the 3rd highest selling game in the NPD charts for Jan means nothing is selling. OK. Oh and I'm not defending Sony at all, don't care about them as a company, just like playing their games, same with Nintendo. My dualsense controllers are fine, new hardware can have problems, we'll see what happens. But I have fixed 2 joy con's sticks and have third that's just started to drift. Nintendo has multiple lawsuits for drift, so does Microsoft. You say Nintendo has learnt but they are earning billions a year and after 4 years are still manufacturing a faulty product. They would rather deal with the lawsuits than change the joy con design. And let's not go there with the terrible net code. I remember when my boys first got Mario maker 2, couldn't wait to try the online play, playing against other people! Was awful, almost unplayable. Yeah Nintendo learnt so much about gaming online! Nintendo are doing so amazingly
well because they came up with a brilliant design and still make some of the best 1st games out there, but in other ways they are miles behind the competition. All 3 deserve criticism for different things they have done and are still doing. Anyway I'm sure over the next year we'll all have great games to play on the systems we like, so everyone will be happy.

@Kidfunkadelic83 agree.....it is downright embarrasing now.

@JasmineDragon I personally would like to go to that universe.

@Anti-Matter I never said Nintendo was perfect. You keep making excuses and moving the goal post. Sorry people like you are why Sony never learns. Their arrogance causes them to be very lazy, but apologists like you keep them from learning.

@michellelynn0976
I have one question.
What makes you so prejudice about PS5 ?
You keep repeating your not nice to say about PS5.
Are you sure with your statement to hate PS5 blindly ?
Once again, nothing wrong for playing both Nintendo and Sony machines.
More machines, more games choices, happier.
My games shelf are full with both Nintendo and Sony games, so what do you say ?

@NintendoByNature - I mean... you’re not wrong about them being not wrong. In all honesty, to be fair, I mean... I totally called this direct.

@bimmy-lee in retrospect, none of us knew what Sakurai was planning. I'm not up for playing chicken so if I had my guess, a new direct is likely announced tomorrow for a release day sometime in the future fiscal year.
