@MegaVel91 Never called it a lazy port. I'm just pointing out whenever any other company re-release an older game, they tend to price $40 as the average. Even EA and Activision do it, so Nintendo is still the worst in this regard.
A lot of people calling this a new game when it isn't. Every other company releases their remasters/remakes/ports/collections for $30-$50, but Nintendo does it at $60 every single time, sometimes with very minimal additions. I love Nintendo, but they're easily the most greedy when it comes to this type of stuff.
@Paraka At this point it's hard to deny that the Melee elitist are better than the people who complain about Melee. This is proven by the fact that top Melee players play Ultimate without crying about it like you guys do.
I'm surprised he did this because I've heard he hates the games, and he hates that some people only started to read the books after playing the games. Still glad to know more Witcher games will be developed by CDPR.
N64 is the first system I ever gamed on. Still have the same one from 20 years ago. I think it's a great system, but it's definitely an acquired taste, those 64bits only come with about 20fps.
@gortsi Exactly, another reason why this model worked with Vita is because the storage issue. Small and expensive proprietary memory cards makes physical releases easier to sell. At this point however, it's just getting out of hand.
Companies like these have ruined game collecting. They take advantage of people who feel the need to have to own every single game, and if they miss out on a release? They end up stuck having to pay more than double for these things. I would rather support EA over companies like these any day.
Kind of want to buy Luigi's Mansion 3, but at the same time I want to clear backlog. Will definitely play some Mario Maker 2, Dragon Age Origins, and Resistance 2 this weekend.
I want to be pleasantly surprised by a more consistent release schedule, more than 3 games per month (sometimes 2 heh). It will more than likely be even worse than that.
@DEADCELL I'm not sure exactly who it was, but I've seen people on here complain about DBFZ getting a second season pass. Asking things like, "since when did fighting games become the most expensive?", or "remember when you got new characters by playing the game?" People just complain about it when, like you said, it's completely optional.
They guaranteed a second season pass essentially. Everyone on here complains when other devs do it, will they complain now that Nintendo are doing it too?
@bluezbro You're completely right, I managed to find a sealed copy of Muramusa the Demon Blade for only $30, which just goes to show you that some of the hidden gems aren't that expensive. Nintendo selects also insure you can find some of it's best games for around $20. The Wii is easily one of the most underrated consoles ever.
@KingMike I guess I only noticed it with 3 because I didn't buy any of the games until the second one came out. Then finding out sometime later that they already had the 3rd one in Japan.
I love FIFA, but sometimes I need a sport game that isn't a simulator. Also one that doesn't try to get me to buy micro transactions every other second. Might check this one out.
@Bunkerneath The very first motion controller ever created, for the Atari 2600, actually did use liquid mercury. Using it here wouldn't be far-fetched.
@CaPPa Of course the power difference with Switch compared to XBO/PS4 is smaller than the Wii to PS360. The latter are all 7th gen, while the Switch is a 9th gen system being compared to 8th gen systems.
@ALinkToMyProfile I still play on the occasion with friends, but even at 100mbps internet the game still lags over WiFi. It's local or nothing personally.
@rex_rex Why does he have to justify his opinion on the game? I haven't played it myself since completing all the challenges, after that there's no reason for solo play.
@Heavyarms55 Yeah, these anime arena fighters are almost never good, the Ninja Storm games are alright enough, but most of the time they end up like Jump Force, mediocre at best.

This physical edition has a lot of cool stuff, too bad the game sucks.
Re: Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX Switch eShop File Size Revealed
@Heavyarms55 Again, this game isn't new, and Activision had 2 ps1 trilogies remade, and sold them for $40 each. Nintendo still losing here.

Well at least Amazon has the standard Switch Lites for 3 cents less the other places here in the US.

Re: Japanese Charts: Ring Fit Adventure Has Strong Second Week But Can't Fend Off Call Of Duty
@GrailUK Why do you guys make fun of CoD on here while fanboying Pokemon? CoD changes more each year than Pokemon has in a decade.
Re: UK Charts: Ring Fit Adventure Falls To 7th As Call Of Duty Takes Top Spot
@Krull to be fair, it is on Xbox game pass.

Re: Just Dance 2020 Arrives On Switch And Nintendo Wii This November
@DonSerrot Good point, the Wii version will have to carry the Wii U on a little longer.
Re: Just Dance 2020 Arrives On Switch And Nintendo Wii This November
No more Wii U version? I would expect it to go for longer

Re: Citizens Of Earth Is Being Mysteriously Removed From The 3DS eShop In Japan
@Semudara Sega gives no love to the Saturn, you'll always see Genesis, Dreamcast, Master System, and Game Gear rereleases, but never any Saturn ones.
Re: Citizens Of Earth Is Being Mysteriously Removed From The 3DS eShop In Japan
@LunarFlame17 Games like Panzer Dragoon Saga make me hopeful that Sega will do the right thing and make a Sega Saturn Mini.
Re: Citizens Of Earth Is Being Mysteriously Removed From The 3DS eShop In Japan
I guess I have to buy this before it's gone for good.
Re: Yo-Kai Watch 4 Release Delayed Yet Again In Japan

Re: Yo-Kai Watch 4 Release Delayed Yet Again In Japan
Won't get my hopes up of this getting localised any time soon. Took years for 3 to come over.
