Glad it’s not a cloud version. If this runs decently and looks ok I’ll get it. Hopefully the whole game is on the cart and there’s no hefty download with the physical edition.
It still looks like Stardew Valley, even some of the fonts. When they said they were redesigning some assets well let’s say they need to redesign alot more if they’re serious
@EVIL-C I hope you’re right but I highly doubt it. Nintendo charges and therefore profits too much from the 32GB proprietary cartridges. It’s rare that a publisher will use more than a 16GB cart for this reason. Unfortunately The Witcher 3 is a very rare exception. I blame Nintendo for this more than the publisher.
Atlus are either stupid or annoying. They know that Switch owners want a mainline Persona game (preferably P5R but we’d take P4G) instead they give us spin-off games only. There’s over 100 million Switch owners so I have to ask what are they doing? Do they not want easy money?
I’m very reluctant to pay FULL price for a 2D side scroller pretty much since Super Mario 64 brought us 3D platformers last century. Therefore as Star Allies was not $20 I didn’t pick it up. They tried harder and succeeded with Forgotten Land so I purchased it. Great game and It deserves to sell 5 million+
I love glitzy graphics and normally never touch a game with retro graphics. I read the reviews and ended up sinking over 100 hours into this game which is a bargain for how much gameplay you get. I still think it looks ugly, really ugly.
Apparently the complaints go back to 2015 which is under Reggie’s watch. According to an article in kotaku contracters were kept on contract for 10 years or more without getting made permanent. Reggie you’ve only been gone 3 years. The article if true is hard to read, and disgusting treatment of staff. Whilst ex-employee Reggie has responded Nintendo has not and their silence is damning.
There were approximately 279 Yokai Watch games localised for the 3DS yet we can’t get even one Yokai game localised for the Switch. There are so many JRPG and visual novels on the eshop that have been localised that I’ve never heard of that won’t sell that I can’t understand this at all
I’m old school so I don’t like this. But then again I have an issue with games being digital only, micro transactions and paid DLC (especially if it’s day one) - That said if I don’t like it I just don’t buy it. Simple
N64 was amazing. Playing Super Mario 64, a real 3D game was a giant leap and then Goldeneye which was an amazing first-person shooter were such mammoth leaps from the previous console generation and left me with a sense of wonder which has never been topped since. N64 was the golden era for me.
@Ryo_Hazuki I would agree. I love Nintendo games and Nintendo consoles but the company itself not so much. I can understand why BUT they’re over zealous IMO compared to other companies.
Maybe Nintendo should seize all copies of Advance Wars on the DS out of respect for Ukraine. I respect Ukraine and the immense difficulties they’re facing but this is a cartoon games FFS. There’s Tiny Tanks and all sorts of war games on the Switch and other consoles which are still being sold. I understand the sentiment but I don’t think it’s really that relevant unless the game is referencing Ukraine
Preferred Fenyx to BOTW. No weapons breaking or annoying, unrealistic and ridiculous storms electrocuting you and your weapons, just a good game without the stupid frustrations of BOTW
I’ve got over 100 switch games and have never purchased a cloud game and do not intend to so if this runs natively and gets decent reviews for the switch I’ll buy it
It looks like Stardew Valley with better graphics. I loved Stardew Valley even though I hated the graphics of the game so I’m really interested in this.
At 1000 days and counting. It’s getting to the ridiculous stage now. Are they trying to compete with George RR Martin? Maybe they should reveal further down the development cycle because this situation is just stupid
I don’t normally purchase these types of games but I’m having a pretty good time with it and it looks good. Load times break the immersion somewhat and it’a 20GB download (or 6GB if you have the physical) but I would recommend purchasing especially if you see it discounted.
Slim pickings indeed. Steamworld & Harvest Moon is that it? (and other games no-one's ever heard of.) Not exactly heavy hitters in that list. Think I'll pass as I'd rather spend money on the Switch store. Hopefully Nintendo can give us a proper 3DS sale before they close the eshop but somehow I doubt it.
Gonna pass on this. Like most people I’m waiting for a mainline Persona game. I thought there was supposed to be a February announcement for P25. If that’s it how pathetic
Slow down?? If they turn out to be good games as they’re being developed by different teams then why slow down? I hate waiting years for games. Slow down? More like bring it on
The performance is fine now so my only gripe is the missing songs on the radio stations. If you have been holding off purchasing because of the performance then that’s no longer much of a problem
I hope it’s a sequel to Soul Hackers as we don’t need another port of this and I hope we get a separate game announcement this month for the Persona 25th anniversary
Not a Warriors fan at all. I was holding off getting Three Houses due to the rumors of a new Fire Emblem game but this is not what I was hoping for so I will now purchase Three Houses
50% permanent price cut in America but only 33% in Australia. I hate how some regions get shafted, and no I don’t want to set up multiple accounts as that would be a pain for me. Still a price cut of a good game is good news.
