Imagine that you own a video game store.
Imagine you just bought 100 Nintendo Switches to sell for Christmas..
Then imagine you've just heard the announcement of the new Nintendo console...
Surprisingly announcing a console seems to me the perfect move to antagonize video game stores.
Here in Italy, Amazon is actually offering you a 10€ Rebate on any order if you agree to select a delivery point instead of your home or office as shipping address. I used this discount to purchase this game for 39€
I want a customizable main character. I want to be able to choose the gender, hair styles, skin color, everything. I'm sick of playing with a predefined character. For how I see it, I paid for the game and therefore I must be free to use my own avatar of choice in the game.
@Anguspuss What about Lego DC Villains? It's on sale very often for less than 30€, there's CO-OP and it's full of DC comics heroes and villains, you can even customize your her or villain and it's a very very fun game IMHO
I wish Bandai Namco could apply the same threatment to the first Time Crisis and to Deadstorm Pirates. They used to be a joy to play in the arcades back in the days...
Wow, a Terra Cresta sequel! As an old grumpy man this excites me more than Bayonetta 3
Now, speaking about former Nichibutsu arcade games, it would be awesome if we could also get some proper sequels to Cosmo Police Galivan and UFO Robot Dangar
The rating IMHO is way too exaggerated. a 8/10 or even a lower 7/10 would be a better vote in my opinion. If this is a perfect ten, then we should rate games like Mario Odissey and Mario Galaxy a 13/10 in comparison IMHO.
I'm italian and I don't speak portoguese, but since I heard for many years a former brazillian football/soccer player commenting matches on television (Jose Altafini) the right way of writing the name shouldn't be << golaço >> instead of Golazo?
Animal crossing will arrive one day or another so I'll be patient, but I'd really like to be surprised and see a new Wave race and 1080° Snowboarding for Nintendo Switch ^______^;
On the italian iOS chart the top grossing app is still Clash Royale. it was before the launch of SMR and it still is. Actually SMR is taking the second place and candy crush saga the third. Pokemon go is actually at the tenth place.

It's not "Borga Marina"
It's BORGO MARINA (in English, you’d probably translate this fictional Italian town name as 'Marineburg').
