Backed at the "Early Bird" $10 tier. I really want the digital soundtrack, and digital art book, but at $40, I decided to just go with $10. Funny how this releases in December, the month of my 35th birthday, lol.
Pledged £10 (about $13) for the digital copy on Switch + OST download. I have no idea how you use emulators, so the Genesis/Mega Drive (download) tier is out. Don’t own a Dreamcast either, so the Dreamcast (download) tier is out, as well. Hope the Switch stretch goal makes it...
I can still deal with the somewhat blurry resolution, but why didn't they fix the muted, washed out colors, compared to the other versions?
Just look at the colored bars on the DJ's turntables that light up while he's scratching.
It's like a watered down lite pink on the Switch version, while on PC, PS4, and Xbox One, it has the correct color palette of purplish-magenta. It looks really bad...
They should be more upset at that fact that Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix, aka Pocket Fighter, is missing. At the same time, Capcom really should be including both the US, AND Japanese versions of the games on the same cartridge/download.
US Nintendo account would automatically play the American versions, while a Japanese Nintendo account would automatically play the Japanese versions. Shouldn't be that hard for Capcom to pull off. They're simple Roms, after all...
Yeah... this is definitely a day one pickup for me. Looks to run @ 60fps, too! Already loaded funds into my eShop account for this, on Thursday. This, along with the Mutant Mudds Collection pre-load on the 7th, 80's Overdrive on the 3DS, on the 14th, and Yooka-Laylee on the 14th. Busy month ahead. Oh, and Breath of the Wild, DLC Pack 2... lol
@frogopus Not complaining whatsoever when I say this... but how is this only $9.99? It looks soooooooooo much better than the Utopia & Freedom games by Zordix, and is around 1/4 of the overall price, which is pretty incredible. How many courses are in this Riptide GP game?
Wouldn't make a difference anyway, if you can't understand what's being displayed on screen. If that's the case for you, what's the point of even trying to buy this?
@heathenmagic If you only own a 3DS, then by all means, get that version. I only recommend getting the Switch version over the 3DS one, if you happen to own both systems.
The 3DS version doesn't support stereoscopic 3D at all, so why bother if you own a Switch? At least with the Switch version, you get a choice of either 1080p/30fps, or 720p/60fps, and both will look gorgeous on either the TV, or the Switch screen itself.
Had the 3DS version supported 3D, I'd be double dipping. Guess they saved me an extra $40.
@DarkmarkUnited I think people want it to look, and perform decently. I don't think that's asking too much, especially when they're still charging full MSRP for it. So far, it's only redeeming quality, is it's portability factor.
Game was, and still is blast to play. One of my favorite games of 2016. No regrets, and I'd love a sequel on Switch. And no, this isn't sarcasm. It's legit how I feel.
This program is so bad, to the point to where I've had to literally GIVE AWAY a TON redeemed rewards to strangers online, because hundreds of my points were going to expire between June and July, and because there was nothing else available on the service that I already didn't own. Coins that expire within a year, that people actually have to put money towards in order to obtain. Absolute trash. Terrible, terrible program. Thanks, Nintendo!
Any reason why they haven't announced the $89.99 "Deluxe Edition" version for Switch? Still waiting on confirmation before I pre-order he Switch version.
When it's missing classic games like Pole Position, Mappy, Rally-X, and other versions of those games, along with the other two Splatter House games, and others, it's hard to take them seriously, especially at that price tag. Also, can these even be played in 4:3 full screen, without the in-game borders?
A SNES Classic Edition pre-order, an Amazon Echo for sub-$100, Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers for sub-$20, and some music deals, is all I'm hoping for.
Have had both the PC, and Switch Collector's Editions pre-ordered from Best Buy, for months. Got both for under $44 each, before tax. Thanks GCU, and Visa Checkout promotion! lol.
Looks awsome though. Never bought a NBA 2Kxx game before. I want that $149.99 Gold Edition, but I can't justify that price :/. How many years do each game's servers stay up for? If it's only for a year, I don't see the point.
