Was going to buy for Switch 2 but obviously hasn't been optimised for the new system. So decided to get PS5 version instead. Loved the demo so still buying.
Its amazing have on Steam deck, preordered Switch physical version. Also I have a naughty bootleg Megadrive cartridge, which runs great on original tech. Hopefully next year will buy the actual Megadrive version.
So can he explain to us 3DS owners how shutting down the Eshop is a good thing. Can't buy anything again!! Can only download existing stuff you purchased. Just think the amount of games that are practically gone forever. Same goes for Wii.
@Eririichi agreed, a scalpers dream, this will end up being just as expensive as the real thing. Also can't believe you need a online membership to purchase !!
Its a joke you have to have an online membership to purchase. Nintendo management is taking the piss nowadays. Greed is obviously more important than there fanbase.
Great news!! Have the Wii versions & the 3D all stars on Switch. Will get this for the collection to play on Switch 2. Can't wait to play through Galaxy 2.
Ordered physical version on switch, couldn't resist. That boxart alone was enough lol 😆 but Salamander 3 tipped me over. I have Salamander 2 on the Saturn which is brilliant. And many other Gradius/Salamander ports across other systems. But I like the rewind features on this new collection.
I have a Switch & Steam deck. Both brilliant, sick of these comparisons. I haven't got a switch 2 yet, but I will get one & I'm sure I'll love it just as much.
Unfortunately with consumers demanding more & more each gen. Games are so big physical storage is becoming less sustainable. Hey & I'm not defending digital. I'm the biggest fan of physical media. But like I said the gamers always want more & more then moan when ***** like this happens. Unfortunately games aren't in Megabytes anymore.
@Galaxy2IsTheGOAT totally agree, but some will never get there heads around Nintendo's success. It's always been about amazing games, something Nintendo delivers in spades.
Not great in my opinion, the cheesy American actors playing Mario kart was cringe. Games definitely not exciting. Except for Metroid, Donkey Kong, Mario kart.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Super Mario Galaxy + Galaxy 2?

Re: Nintendo Is "Acting To Protect The Industry" With Switch 2 Game Key Cards, Says Ex-Capcom Composer
@jsty3105 I'm on about new games, I can't buy anything now for 3DS or Wi can I. That's no preservation.

Re: UK Charts: Mario Kart World Takes The Lead While Cronos Sees Weak Sales On Switch 2
Key cards, that's the problem, I want this game, & Little nightmares 3. But they are both key cards on Switch 2. So will probably buy on PS5.

@sanderev yeah but that won't be the case forever I'm sure.
Re: Yep, Metroid Prime 4's Box Art For Switch 2 Is... Corrupted

Re: Poll: So, How Would You Rate The Nintendo Switch 2 Direct?
Not great in my opinion, the cheesy American actors playing Mario kart was cringe. Games definitely not exciting. Except for Metroid, Donkey Kong, Mario kart.
