I think it's because this game was a turd when it was first released @SenseiDje. But this version has all the newly added modes and DLC that have released over the past two years. And many people think it's 100% better than the originally released game that most those reviews are probably based on. You should read the dates of the steam reviews? Well if steam reviews have dates on them that is.
This is the game that changed it all for me. I bought Guacamelee 1&2 off Eshop and 16 hours later it was announced that physical copies where on the way. Since then i haven't bought a digital only games for at least 6 months after launch and only if it was on sell. Thank you Guacamelee One Two Punch you have saved me tons of money and added tons of previously digital only games to my physical game collection. Oh yea and my backlog thanks you too.
Thanks for the info @w00dm4n just kinda info i was looking for. But if the file size ends up being that big i might just pass as it would take up a lot space on my Microsd and take about 24 hours to download. But then again i do like Superman & Crackdown. Thanks again.
I understand thanks @ryancraddock can't report on what you don't know. And thanks on the info of other systems. Thanks again and keep up the good work.
You've played this game so can you tell me how this game makes money @w00dm4n? Aka is it by paying for cosmetics, to win, extra missions/ characters ect.ect.
Sorry if it seems i'm singling you out @ryancraddock but all previews IMO by all Nintendo Lifers should mention if know, how the game makes money. Aka is it by paying for cosmetics, to win, extra missions/ characters ect.ect.
Yea Yooka Laylee is the only one i wanted physically but bought digitally instead because of the price($59 with tax & shipping). And i live in the U.S where Best Buy sells over 80% of Limited Run Games Switch releases including Yooka Laylee which saves you $8 so i could've bought it there.(no shipping cost at Best Buy).
You absolutely might be right @ralphdibny as someone who buys over 60% of the Limited Run Games Switch releases i did notice that the Power Rangers limited Edition was one of their more/most expensive limited releases(therefore could of been/been seen as overpriced).
I never could watch video game competitions for much more than few minutes before becoming bored. Watching them reminds me of my 6 year old niece who will watch hours upon hours of others playing video games and playing with toys on youtube if allowed.
Some might like this game, but apparently not people who shop a Limited Run Games. As this game took forever to sell out in the limited edition (3,000 games).
Cool i was hoping this would come to Switch. But i want the New Tekken over any fighting game released or releasing for Switch. I have fond memories of Tekken 3. Before Tekken 3 and the Playstation people were considered nerds, geeks, ect. ect. for playing video games. Tekken 3 and the Playstation brought in the age of video games being the norm. I remember everybody in high school playing it.
I've got this for my Megaretron HD a middle of the line Genesis hardware clone. So i'm set, best $52 i've spent at Walmart in a long time. I also prefer hardware clones over software emulation clones.
How is it nobody can get this right? Where there no good racing games on the PS2, PS3, or XBOX360? Any racing game on any of these systems should run great on the Switch.
The car/vehicle in the Japanese box art couldn't of been ripped straight from Total Recall @dartmonkey. As Total Recall released in theaters in the 90's and not the 80's when Contra U.S/Japan was released.
That's funny i don't remember turning into a robot or mech in Contra NES. But humor aside this is a cool fun fact IMO. As living in the U.S i never knew the two main characters were different across the pond.
I wasn't trying to prove you wrong @JohnnyC. I just noticed when i was ordering me the Lego Saturn 5 Rocket that some of their stuff was kinda expensive $400 and some of their stuff was insanely expensive $15,000+. But you are correct on Legos holding / increasing their value over time.
I don't know @JohnnyC Legos can be pretty expensive too. As Lego has a Harry Potter Castle for $399.99 on their website which is only like $24 cheaper than these. And if you want one of the sold out Star Wars Sets brand new that'll set you back over $15,000.
No i don't have the links @HalBailman because the comments were from Nintendo, Sony, Microsoft back in the Wii U, PS3, and Xbox 360 days. So it would of been 12+ years ago or so. But it went something like this. We believe digital games will be the future of the gaming industry as it will make consumers gaming library accessible anywhere there's a game system and internet connection without having to take physical games with you. And it will be better for the environment and cost less on the production side of things which will be passed on to the consumer. It's basically a win win for everybody and something we think our customers will be very excited about.
Your forgetting the B.S they told us years ago @HalBailman. They said that going digital would save on production cost which would be passed on to the consumer. Yea how's that working out for everybody but the game companies who don't have to make game cases and carts anymore and they make sure you can't sell your games to others anymore?
Oh well guess i'll go back to buying slightly used games for crazy low prices again. Where Nintendo & Others get absolutely no money out of the sell. I don't do this to hurt Nintendo & Others but to save money. And Nintendo & Others kinda did this to themselves.
It's not bad for me @nessisonett as i only have a $1,525 max copay deductible a year. So only $1,525 a year for all my meds. But sadly there is no way people without insurance or good insurance can afford medication here in the U.S as just the meds i listed above are over $3,000 a month or $36,000 a year. It truly is greedy and wrong and no that is not IMO just a fact.
I agree with everyone else as i've seen the pros & cons list on other sites and i'm glad to see them here too and even more cleaver calling them Joys & Cons.
I never was much on any of the Wii fits. I'd rather keep the pharmaceutical companies well funded with my blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetic medicines. OH WAIT!
You think it's fine @Coalescence because like you said you only played it for a few hours. The real problems don't show up until the 2nd half of the game, when they ran out of time for optimization. The first half of the game runs 1,000% better than the 2nd half.
Yes Limited Run Games is based only in the U.S.A @sandman89. But they ship worldwide. And yes as far as i know this is the only way to get a physical copy of these games in the whole world.
Who cares about new hardware if the don't also start reproducing the old game cartridges again. As some of the good games cost around $500! And who can afford that?
Are you talking about the Sega Genesis 32X version @nukatha? Because i looked for a Genesis non 32X version of Doom but only things i could find where Duke Nukem 3D and Wolfenstein 3D for the Genesis.
I literally bought Doom for the SNES the day before this was released on Switch. Needles to say i bought it for Switch too because it looks like crap on SNES IMO.
Although i posted this in an article about leaks @nhSnork. For me i believed 100% that their would be a smaller and better performing Switch coming out the day i made my day 1 purchase of my Switch. So when the rumors started i felt like yea it only makes since since this is what i believed from day 1. Then i thought how can people not believe this. But that was just me.
It's only 8:30am local and i've already been proven wrong @Ralizah. Since i only play my Switch in handheld i didn't give it a second thought calling it a handheld and not a hybrid like it is. My bad
I can't believe there were non believers who said i'll believe it when it's announced. Nintendo has only revised literally 95%+ of their handhelds since the Game Boy.
I've already spent $115+ for the Hori Dragon Quest Slime controller. So spending $160 on another controller is sadly out of the question for me at the moment.
