Chimichanga

Huh, after all the bickering and hollering, I expected Sonic Racing to out perform Mario Kart, at least upon launch day.

And sure, SEGA screwed up the Switch version, but after watching the PS5 version, it’s nothing to really brag about.

At the very least, the lack of a BlueSky account is promising.

Interesting, game costs the new standard price of US$70, a deluxe version for US$90, announcing dlc before/at launch and yet little to no one bats an eye.

If Nintendo were smart, they’d release a bunch of Metroid, Star Fox and F-Zero LEGO models. I know I’d preorder/buy them all in a heartbeat.

While I agree this is great news, I’d really like to see the Silent Hill games make their way to the NS2.

Nice. Still waiting for my physical copy, last time I preorder anything from LRG. Hopefully everything goes smoothly for the sequel.

Wow these sorts of “opinions” have gotten annoying fast. It’s like every time they add a change/something new people get upset, until they actually play the damn thing.

Me? I still wanna see a full blown online multiplayer mode, Feds v Pirates, Halo ODST style.

Funny little rib. But even as a multiplat release, I doubt it will even come close to MKW sales.

It’s definitely up there with the best, but definitely not a 10.

A 2nd Kirby Riders direct, but no Metroid Prime 4: Beyond direct? 😡

Oh boo hoo.

So sad.

Without actual sales numbers, like the one on Japan sales, these sort of lists aren’t all that useful.

A good patch would be one that removes this game from all gaming stores.

Ubisoft + Disney Star Wars = no sale/2nd hand.

Dragon's Dogma 2, please.

This just in, garbage game turns out to be garbage elsewhere. More at 6.

I’ll take a Nightdive remaster, but would prefer a Bloober remake. Still got my GC copy.

Think I’m just missing Rosalina, and now this one obviously. But AU$40 for a Hot Wheels is a bit much, even if it is a Special Edition.

I still reckon MKW is bound for DKB content soon.

Some decent picks, mixed with never-gonna-happen & total garbage.

Pretty standard, I guess.

Still got my hard copy of Geist and Eternal Darkness. Man I want someone like Bloober Team to remake ED.

So basically you’re impatient.

On another note, Zebra Bananza theme is only the 2nd best Bananza theme, Snake Bananza got it beat by a country mile.

It’s not that hard to put together, and it’s not that deep NLife.

After giving Bananza a 9/10, NLife’s opinion on this matter means very little.

Ackshually, there were 10 games removed from that direct. My sauce? I made it up and it tastes great!

Nintendo could do something Halo ODST/Reach-like with a Metroid Prime spinoff, with online multiplayer, there’d be even smaller want for games like this. Probably do the franchise some good too.

Mind you Battlefield hasn’t been that good since BF3, arguably BF4.

One of the very few, good surprises in that direct.

Probably one of the worst directs I’ve seen in recent times, rivalling the “farming sim” direct. Sure there were a couple of games I’m looking forward to, but mostly mid-to-rubbish.

And frankly, all sports games and Just Dance should never get a spotlight segment in any games showcase, they should all be displayed in a quick fire segment.

And where were all the Microsoft published games?

Always knew Nintendo would be the last to hold out, for better or worse. The big MS acquisitions were always a sign that MS was going to transition into a major 3rd party publisher, and now Sony follows suit with the PC ports and now their “competitor ports”.

@Sindayl what are you talking about? There have been plenty of games cancelled on Nintendo platforms before. It’s never been a unique situation to Xbox.

Does it have character creation?

Oh no! Anyway…

@Spoony_Tech sales? Ubisoft don’t do sales numbers anymore, it’s “player counts” now, whether they made a sale or not.

I thought Nintendo said they were reducing the amount of shovelware & straight up garbage games on the NS2?

Keep dreaming Yves.

I doubt it’ll even be noticeable, but people will always continue to need a reason to complain about something, even if it’s nothing.

I highly doubt this SKG campaign accomplishes anything.

The more AI replaces those who “localise” eastern media, the better and I’m all for it.

“From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me.”

The only thing I know for sure is, I won’t be getting any of the games featured on a certain other recently posted NLife list. FPM.

Amazing. After all the whining and complaining about the price being too high, the NS2 broke multiple global sales records and now the Nintendo President has even apologised for not being able to meet demand.

@Misima quick google search says 2TB. Good to know.

I’ve already got a 1TB microSD express. Already used more than half of the storage. Really need 2TB or better yet 5TB, but I can only imagine the eye watering price for one that large. Probably cost more than the NS2 MKW console bundle, pro-controller and camera combined.

Kit & Krysta were cringy when they were apart of NoA or NoE (I honestly don’t know or care which they were apart of), now they’re just painful. They’ve been off the mark so often, that I don’t know why NLife keeps quoting them, are they stupid?

They’re really going to whine about the sales on a console that’s only been 2 weeks on the market, for game ports that came out well over a year ago, sold at premium prices, while being sold on sale or having permanent price drops elsewhere? Then there’s the whole key card dilemma. I mean really?

SteamDecks and PC handhelds go under the radar because it’s Steam, I mean where are their specific sales numbers? I bet they’re not pumping out great numbers either.

Come back when it’s a game released day and date as the others.

The only thing I look at Sony for is how they robbed Stellar Blade from being a multiplatform game, luckily it’s finally on PC now, only with little thanks to Sony.

Nothing I said was inappropriate, it was accurate. As it would be bad for the movie, because of terrible casting.

So does that mean a Ninja Gaiden 4 and Nioh trilogy announcement for the NS2?

Funny how everyone b!tched about the NS2 price, yet it’s all the expensive consoles leading the show.

The NS2 is good, don’t need no “professional critic’s opinion” on that.

So MS slapped the Xbox brand on an Asus ROG and called it a day.

The cheapest I can find for the current market ROG Ally is A$1200, A$1600 for the Ally X.
So the Xbox branding may end up calling it a premium product and bump the price up more, who knows?

Either way, I doubt it’ll have any significant impact on the NS2.
