Frog in the boiling pot. A lot of people are okay with codes in a box instead of game key cards when both are bad. Nintendo and companies are conditioning some people to start accepting an all digital future. I wouldn't be surprised if a revised Switch 2 is digital only
@canaryfarmer Hilarious.🤣 I'll never understand why some people root for corporations and act like they are their friends. I do understand your comment is sarcasm but it's definitely how a lot of people are
What a mess this has been. If people have other platforms to play this game on, they should do it. Censorship is stupid, especially for something that is clearly marketed for adults.
@Rentaro I'm afraid those times are long gone and never coming back. A lot of people are being priced out of what used to be one of the cheapest forms of entertainment
It's not even worth the current price in my opinion. It's not a matter of if, but when the price increases. Nintendo can only hold out so long before they have to do it. They aren't going to eat the costs on hardware like other companies usually do. This is also a savvy PR move from them. Waffle on a potential price increase and make some people feel like they should buy it now instead of holding out longer.😐
I have no interest in this. If I ever did in the future it'll be on a very steep discount. But we know how Nintendo is with discounts so I guess I may never play this.😆
@Smithicus A lot of people are living off credit. I know someone who practically uses credit cards and after pay for vacations, Christmas shopping, etc... You'd be surprised to know how many financially irresponsible people there are in the world, especially when it comes to hobbies and miscellaneous things
What a joke.😂 If an adult is buying this game I'm sure they can handle some uncensored things. Hopefully people buy this on other platforms that don't treat their customers like children.
Games are locked behind a subscription service. You need to pay for hardware to get the full use out of the games. And Nintendo will drip feed the library because there aren't many Virtual Boy games that were released. What a joke. And of course a lot of people are eating this ridiculous stuff up because it's Nintendo.😐
I personally have no issues with a game I'm looking forward to getting delayed as long as it's to make sure it's in the best shape possible when it launches. I have enough games in my backlog on various platforms to hold me over. Anyone who gets upsets with game delays really need to chill. A lot of developers are under stress from trying to make a good product and satisfy the publisher's goals.
Interesting times we're living in. The majority of us probably don't need a new console anyway. We're at the point of diminishing returns, mediocre games, and ridiculous prices. I'm focusing on my backlog and others should do that too in my opinion
Another corporate person that weirdos will form an unhealthy parasocial relationship with. All I care about is the games, period.😐 I'm also not surprised that misogynists and bigots are popping up in the comments.🙄
This game is a perfect example of fanboys being bias. This is an average game that doesn't deserve all of the accolades it received at launch in my opinion. If it was made/published by anyone else but Nintendo reviews would've been a lot more harsh. It's decent but not mind-blowing or deserving of high scores like some people and organizations have given it.
Final Fantasy IX. It's been sitting in my backlog for a long time and I started it a week ago. I'm really enjoying my time with it so far. The characters, story, and battle system are all top notch in my opinion. I absolutely adore ViVi too.🥰
@deezcronuts First time here?🤔😆 Some people swear by all that is Nintendo and will defend them relentlessly. What I find interesting is how many people bashed Sony for paid upgrades but are okay when Nintendo does it. Hypocrisy is something else
@UltimateOtaku91 I agree. Nintendo is charging people to use the power of their new console and some are okay with it.😐🥴 And before I'm attacked by others I don't think any company should charge for a visual and frame rate bump. It's not like they are rebuilding the entire game from scratch.
I really don't know how some people can keep defending Nintendo this generation. Game key cards, high game prices, minimal upgrades that cost money, etc... I guess being a fanboy of a corporation trumps common sense. And it's not "cheeky" but downright pathetic and greedy for them to charge for something they could've released for free during the Switch era. Nintendo is milking things as much as possible
Too many companies have invested billions already into AI to give up on it. They are trying to shove it into every aspect of our lives so that it's as ubiquitous as cellphones, tv, etc... All in the name of "convenience" which means more control over the population. They want it so entrenched in society that it'll be almost impossible to get rid of
