How are they "ripped of"? Does Nintendo force them into buying this game or do they need to buy this game in order to survive? Will they be put in jail if they don't buy this game? Are they buying a Donkey Kong game that's not a Donkey Kong game? Is Nintendo hiding that this is a remake of a remake?
And do you think their kids will have a blast with DKCR on the Switch? Big chance that they don't know the original(s).
That's correct. All the fuzz about a difference of a couple of dollars. Someone even says: "$50,00 USD at most"
You will be able to get it for around that price very shortly after release, maybe even at launchday. It's just complaing for the sake of it, as you said.
Anyways, If I like a game, I will buy it. It doesn't matter to me if they worked on it for 6 years or 6 months. I'm an adult and I have a job. Gaming is my hobby, it's not the biggest problem in the world whether a game I really like cost $ 40,00 or $ 60,00.
Yes, you will be able to buy a 3DS and LM2 for less than $ 60,00. Easy
Me personally:
If I like a game, I don’t care if they worked 6 years on it or 6 months. I also don’t care if it’s $ 60,00 or $ 40,00. I’m an adult and I have a fulltime job so for me it’s no biggie.
Not much hopes. Most of those partner directs are filled with mobile games no one cares about. Don't get me wrong, I do feel love for games like Silksong and more, but usually the partner direct are a disappointment in the end.
N64 is my least beloved Nintendo console. I just don’t like the 3D of that era anymore. It’s just not playable these days. I’ll skip this one. Analogue stuff is also very loved by scalpers. Not easy to buy…
Take a deep breath… Easy now. I think you might miss a couple of Mario games here and there. I love Sonic too, but Mario is more my cup of tea.
And that doesn’t mean I don’t now about gaming history. Fact is that overall, Mario games have had a lot more influence on the industry. Denying that makes no sense. Calling games like Super Mario World simplistic is making you the fanboy tbh
@bransby You can still (re)download the games you own, you need your account and a 3ds that works. If your sd cart is broken, buy a new one, put it in your 3DS and redownload the games. The shop still is online for downloading games you already bought. You just can’t buy new ones
It’s not just Konami, it’s done by everybody. Sonic Origins is even worse. They release a physical Edition without the Gamegear games that are like 5 mb…. This disease is unstoppable
I just want the games. Don’t care about the bonus 100000gb content. I really hate the fact that physical isn’t physical. But fact remains that digital is not cheaper, so I keep buying physical. So I can, if I wanted to, I could sell my games.
@ZealMajin Being able to order doesn’t mean that you will get it at release day the third of may. In the Netherlands you can still order it anywhere online, no word about shortage.
@ULTRA-64 I have the Splatoon Edition Oled. It’s a beauty but I was sure that I would sell it when the Zelda Edition arrived. But I really don’t like this one, the Splatoon one is prettier by a mile. I’m a Zelda collector but this SE Oled is pretty ugly, almost as ugly as the Pokemon Oled.
I think that if you won’t buy the game because of this, you are a hypocrite. Let me ask you, how are your Nikes? Walking good right? Ever wondered how much money the employee(s) that made them is making? I can tell you now that the Vietnamese little boy doesn’t bring home 4K. But he doesn’t have Twitter, so we don’t care.
He doesn’t have a voice. It’s just amazing how the world explodes over this. I don’t care about that woman. She got an offer and it wasn’t enough for her. Her asking not to buy this game is pretty sad, but the fact people are standing behind her is even worse. I hope Bayonetta 3 will sell 100 million copies.
Eternal Champions on the MegaDrive. First time staying over at my older sisters house. She was on vacation and I was home alone. Played that game for 2 weeks straight… Played it a while back and it was awful, but once again I just couldn’t stop playing
It was horrible, what a bunch of crap. What was that? 30 Farming sims, 28 RPG's, a boxing game nobody wants, RE cloud games (and we all know they will play like garbage) and news about games we already knew about.
Pikmin 4 and Golden Eye were all I was interested in. Where was DK, Mario, F-Zero, Metroid? Or something really new, like a Wario game or something. No, instead we got more RPG's and the newest rage in gaming on the Switch since Animal Crossing.... Farming sims... We already have a million RPG's, so if that's not your cup of tea, this direct was underwhelming.
Love the game. I really liked Splatoon 2, so this was a no brainer for me. Great sequel. The made the right things better compared to Splatoon 2. Nice work.
I like it. I got the Splatoon 3 version myself, I think the Pokemon one looks even better (besides the Joy-cons, the Splatoon 3 ones are way better), but I never buy a on a game(franchise) based SE console if I don't like that game(franchise).
I have never played the OG games back in the day, but I do love platform games. I pre-ordered the physical version of the game. I hope that the games are fun for people that never played them but love platformers.
That’s one ugly Switch. I have the AC edition and that One is, by far, the most beautiful Switch en n the planet. I don’t think they will ever release a more beautiful model.
I have less problems with reading what I’m saying than what you are saying. What are you talking about dude?
Yes, I believe that when someone buys a game and then says it should not be at the nr.1 of the selling list is a bit strange. It means that you also had influence on that nr. 1 spot yourself. And then you complain that it has been on that spot and that it should have never gotten that spot. What’s so difficult about that?
I gave reasons why I believe this game went at nr. 1, I can’t do more than that. You can use caps lock In every single letter you use, I still can’t see your point. You are one of the buyers of this game, like me and many others. All together we brought this game at the number one spot. LOL
I’m not debating about the game itself, I’m saying that it is not so very odd that this game has been at the top for 2 weeks. I don’t take anything you say personal, you can have your own opinion. Because of the way you use your CapsLock makes it seem that the only one taking things a bit to peronal is you my friend hahaha. Funny guy.
I just debate that someone that says that a game should not be at the nr. 1 selling list and bought it himself is a bit strange. I even gave reasons why it is not strange that this game has been a nr. 1 selling game for a bit. That’s all. No worries further.
Who are you to judge if a game you buy yourself, should be or not be at nr 1 on the top selling list? That’s just silly, like you are the only one that has the right reason(s) to buy the game.
You have not made any point or what so ever. There are multiple reasons why this game has been nr. 1 for a while. There are many others, just like you. I’m a collector also, so I just had to buy this game.
Many people have not played one or more games in this collection, so that’s a reason. Another reason is that the time of the release, no other big games were released just before or right after this one. It’s not that strange to be honest.
I can't imagine that the game will stay in the top 10 for very long. It had it's moment of fame, but it is nothing big further. It's a port of three great games that Nintendo have not put much time or work in. It's priced high and sold well. So be it.
When you make a mistake going back for 15 minutes is not a biggie. That's 2002.
Love Sunshine, with all of it's faults, camera issues and laggy controls... Don't know why, but I just do. Love going back there and getting mad all over again. Because of the camera, bugs or whatever.
I did not have a Wii so I didn't get to play Galaxy. I did not have a Nintendo 64, but I played the DS version. Loved it. After Sunshine I will go for Galaxy. Mario 64 is last on my list.
My god..... What is this? 60 FPS? Hell no. Play Cops & Robbers and you'll start to cry. It seems to me that some (SP) modes are not just not 60FPS, they are also almost not playable. It's a racegame, frames are important here...
The game alsof confuses my 8bitdo SN30 Pro+ controller. It stops working after 15 minutes or so. Restart the game helps, but after 15 minutes the same thing happens.
Yes, I regret buying this game. Amazing.... I really thought I would love this game. Cops & Robbers is a mode that I really would enjoy, but the framerate ruins it for me....
Never got my controller and got a refund like 3 weeks ago. It took them a while I guess.
It didn't stop me to order again this time. I like living on the edge you know... Taking risks, isn't that what it is all about in life? And ordering this controller from the Nintendo shop is one of those risks..... Let us pray that I will get one this time and that it works as it should..
