Stop stressing, just go get that second job to buy our products MUAHAGAGA

@YANDMAN yep, gave my money to FPGAs instead. I just don’t get it.

@NintendoWife I think you’re onto something. I wonder how many sales of today’s games are from double dippers. Another possible consideration is that the physical gets released later because of the high volume of games that are broken or incomplete on launch day. It sucks, but I’m usually happier waiting months to play games for which I’m excited. When games finally do get a release, that’s when they slowly come onto my radar.

In the end it’s fine. I luckily have plenty to play.

GameStop ROTS

I’m hoping eBay stays as is, not owned by GS.

Check it for pins, everyone. No warehouse deals 😂

@Kilamanjaro Agree. if the Switch 2 Pro Controller had the grip of the S1 Pro, it’d be basically perfect. I use both the S1 and S2 Pro Controllers near daily with S2 and PC.

@IronMan30 I’m just not buying until I think
It’s a fair price. I have more than enough to play to miss this forever, however I’d like to play at some point. But that DLC seems especially expensive to me.

No outrage, just passing on the game for now.

MachineGames figured out how to get a 100GB game onto a 64GB Switch 2 cart.

Knowledge is their treasure, lol!

Edit: the game on PS5 is 125-130GB

It’s a date… ya eat ‘em!

Looking forward to this one.

@disappointedMii or without pins. Seems difficult to overlook.

If Nintendo didn’t develop Switch 2, this never would have happened. 😂

No Farts, No Buy is my rule on this one.

But seriously, what about SBDs?? (Silent But Deadly)

Did Nintendo think of that and work out a solution?

@topher6490 good picks! I’m looking forward to Marvel Cosmic Invasion this week. Have you played Absolum? I really enjoyed that one.

@Tasuki game could come out in September if being technical for a summer release. I’m not buying unless it gets a physical release, so maybe late 2027… oh well, I guess. LRG needs to get it together and fast. I’m already on the verge of canceling a few preorders.

@Profchaos an NES style reversible cover would be most welcome.

Thanks! I’ve not yet either, but have no issues getting to the doppelgänger (last boss before Dracula) and that’s where I usually get stuck on original hardware. That river screen with the birds before is just so brutal too. The last stage isn’t so bad, and Dracula even in three forms is a lot easier than the doppelgänger. I’m going to keep at it!

@Profchaos Switch this year, double dip edition for Switch 2 next year. It’ll probably happen. I just want a physical copy at 60 fps on a Nintendo console and I’ll be pleased.

I’m hoping this will be out in early September.

Been working my way through Castlevania III: Dracula’s Curse recently. Best NES game along with Super Mario Bros. 3.

What a wonderful day for a curse!

@PinballBuzzbro just wait until price creep sets in. It won’t be long now.

Drip…$$$ Drip…$$$

@Vyacheslav333 posted yesterday. Time Extension. Not sure if it made it to NL front page.

@Janeygo agreed.

But we will get Switch 2 “Enhanced” versions of Switch 1 “Deluxe” games that are themselves ports of Wii U exclusives. Because too many people keep buying them…

Super Mario Galaxy: The Flamethrower!!!

The kids love this one.

All I want is a knockout tour track maker and more cups. What is this crap?! 😂

Nice to see this at $44.99. Volume 1 physical was $59.99, but overall had better games, or at least the most popular ones when compared to volume 2. Like with the NeoGeo volumes 1-10, I’ll pick this one up. Glad I didn’t already buy these!

Never happening!

Not my jam.

Wow, look at that AI upscaled image—absolute trash!

Edit: the original also looks quite terrible.

Played 50+ hours and completed many runs on S1. Had a blast with the mp gameplay during the holidays! Some of the builds, like shuriken mentioned above, can be ridiculous!

If you like arcade gameplay and upgrades offered at regular intervals throughout, highly recommend. 4P is the best, but I spent several hours on 1P runs and enjoyed myself.

Nintendo Cinematic Universe? 🤢

Also, the comments section? 🤢

@YANDMAN turbo was mentioned / confirmed in the long feature list.

The price of the S2 Pro hurt, but it is a stellar controller so far.

@-wc- I think I paid $9.99 for SEGA Picross, so these new ones, including the Capcom game, are almost twice as expensive. $9.99 was good impulse buy pricing for me on these, but I won’t pay $18. I like a puzzle game now and then but it’s not one of my main genres.

@-wc- The sea was angry that day my friends 😂

Okay, Rondo of Blood when? 😎

@Scollurio in solidarity:

SEGA!!!!

Here’s hoping you have a wonderful day 😃

@AussieMcBucket I just remember back to the 360 days where it seemed there were lots of demos to try on xbla. Maybe it just was for games I was already considering, lol. But when it comes to N games they are more expensive than my usual picks so it helps me gauge the Nintendo “value.” I bought Devil’s Third. I clearly make good choices!

@The_Nintendo_Expat you make a good point! Differently is probably he right way to put it. I tend to buy almost 100% independent small studio games on modern consoles and they usually stay under $30 even. $80? 🤢 spew into this 🥛

@Paper_Yoshi if every N game had a demo I would likely buy more of their games, but their prices are high compared to the games I routinely buy (in the $10-40 area), so I usually only get them if I am really sure I’ll like it. If I can get 2-3+ games I know I like instead of just 1 that I might, I go the prior route.

That’s a crazy amount of fixes. It’s too bad they weren’t there before the game launched.

@AussieMcBucket lol, was going to leave a price comment and you did it first!!

And nice Dr. Evil reference 😂

@The_Nintendo_Expat Nope! Let me know when this comments section plays out their last scene 😃

Wish I could have this bucket while I read the comments, lol. What a ***** show.

If anything, I’d like more knockout tour races and Grand Prix. 200cc would be nice to have too! I’m almost done three starring the last handful of mirror mode races.

Next 3D Mario when? I’m hoping sooner than later.

Relieved to hear this news.

I really hope Konami does a retail hard copy release, instead of someone like LRG. Castlevania is one of my favorite series, so I don’t want to feel stuck waiting to play this months after launch. Do it, Konami!

Excited to try this! Hoping for a game card release.

Picked up Balatro last summer on Amazon deal $14 physical. I instantly was addicted and won with a few decks. Amazing game but after my 20-hour stint inside a couple nights where I was at it until the sun came up and the servers led me to the comped buffet, I quit cold turkey. Not sure it’s a healthy thing for me to play this one, lol.

I WANT to play it again now…

X-Men Arcade Collection!! Also featuring…other stuff. I have most of these Genesis and SNES carts but I’m in for the two arcade games if the price is fair and the emulation is good or better.

Anyone here play these Carbon Engine games by LRG? How’s input latency? Sound? Are the CRT scanline options any good?

Why let people buy a game when they can rent it forever?

Modern gaming. Lots to enjoy, lots to loathe.

Very punchable face. James Drake: The College Years 😂

Doesn’t really sound like Bond to me, oh well. I just hope it’s fun to play! I’ll be waiting on the reviews and Switch 2 performance. May get on PS5 if it’s worth it.

Excited for this and hope I gel with it! Not sold on it yet but I can’t wait to play it. Fingers crossed!

Go away, Ubi. Nobody wants to play with you anymore.

@Serpenterror AND THE SOUL STILL BURNS

I’m ready for Soul Calibur. Incredible Dreamcast launch title. I want Dynamite Cop and Zombie Revenge! Great list, btw.
