I am definitely getting this game. It’s been several years since I’ve played Madden. Is there any chance that this game could receive an update that would improve the frame rates, or, is the hardware being maxed out?
We sent our Nintendo switch in for a repair, and most of our data was lost. Nintendo was unable to fix our switch without us suffering repercussions. When we called them, all they said was sorry about that, and offered us a free digital game. That did not make up for hours and hours of lost save data.
@MH4 Yeah, I play almost exclusively online. It’s a tough crowd, a lot of people have been on there since 2017. It would be tough for a new person to play online and be competitive.
It’s the players that’s make this game great! We have a small but tight community. Most of us know each other, and our individual fighting style well. Many of us core players have been around since 2017. It would be cool to have a ring of honor of some of the all-time greats.
This article is off a bit. The Nintendo launched in 1985 for $149.99 in the United States. The system came with two controllers, a light gun, Super Mario Brothers, and Duck Hunt. Adjusted for inflation that equals $449.55 in 2025.

This article is very interesting, and it shows the Switch 2 is in line with other releases, according to inflation. 😃
However, now you have to factor in annual salaries adjusted for inflation, that’s where the true cost comes in. 😳
The average annual salary for 1985 in the United States was $24,910. Adjusted forinflation for 2025 that comes out to $74,660. The median salary in 2025 in the United States is $59,384.
@Hoodie718 I’m not trying to take their jobs, I just want to be able to sell American made products in their country without a tariff on our goods. They already have tariffs on the United States. We’re just matching them. We want an equal playing field.
@Mallow I agree with everything you said up until the point where you said, “Hopefully enough pressure and outrage ensues on/within the US government to reverse these ridiculous tariffs.” In my opinion these tariffs are needed. Other countries put tariffs on us so that we cannot compete and sell our products in their country. What’s wrong or unfair with a level playing field? Just look around America. How many cities are in decay, how many homes are crumbling? Nobody’s wages keep up with inflation. The middle class has almost been completely wiped out. We need to bring good paying jobs back to America, and have other countries by our product at the same rate that we buy theirs. That increases demand, and drives up wages. Forget the Nintendo game console, we’re trying to save America, before we go bankrupt. Hang in there. There’s more to life than video games. USA!!!
@Truegamer79 I always liked the game Combat! I can’t remember what system that was on though. My Atari days were short-lived due to the replacement by our Nintendo. I got a NES pretty early on, almost right after they came out in the US.
Honestly they’ve been kind of a letdown lately. I think Nintendo could have done a lot more with them during Covid. This was their chance to hand it to Microsoft and Sony.
@NEStalgia I agree with you totally. I also think this sets Nintendo up perfectly to come out with a new platform that is on par with the PS5 next year or the year after at a more reasonable price point. No need to rush anything with the lack of availability to parts. I think this all works out in Nintendo’s favor!
I’ve got a problem with the holidays being called turkey day and toy day. As for me and my house we thankfully celebrate Thanksgiving, and we rejoice that Jesus came at Christmas. It’s not about the turkey or the toys. Don’t let the world make this holiday shallow with birds and toys. Games have no problems showing blood and gore but they want to take the good things out. Not in my house!
Man do you just like to argue? I didn’t even buy the junk game. I’m trying to stick up for the consumer that buys a game that doesn’t work right because it needs patched. In the United States we cannot return a used video game no matter how (broken/patch needed) it is at the date of purchase.

@MSaturn Wages (do not) have to keep up with inflation. As a matter of fact, wages have not kept up with inflation in the United States.
