Aaah, an Ubisoft game I was not expecting to play but now will do for a couple of reasons: A) I like Starwars B) I like how cheap their games become as time passes C) The option to play it on the go is so tempting.
I could care less about the game format debacle, will buy this eventually on NS2
@Sebos what issue with game preservation are you talking about? I keep reading that as an excuse to "get with the times." (not saying you are one of those people) you can find literally any game you'd want on the internet (ISO, Rom or otherwise)
My only grip with this issue is storage space, if the vast majority of releases were going to bee digital or disguised digital (AKA game key cart) Nintendo should have launch the console with at least 2tb model variant. Hopefully they'll fix this with the inevitable revision down the line but who am I trying to fool, it's Nintendo with whom we are dealing with here.
Imagine investing 400 dollars to play 1 donkey kong game and some Kirby DLC (even thlu a fun game, if you have played one Mario Kart game you have played them all) It infuriates me that Nintendo has been siting on Metroid Prime for well over a year, release the game already!! (All other games you can play on existing consoles/switch one)
This one's great, the fact that you can dock your Switch without the need to removed it seals the deal for me, plus, the build quality is very good as well.
@DTfearTheBEARD I was on the fence with that brand since I didn't knew anything about it, it seem to just appear out of nothing. So, it is a Wal-Mart brand uh?
Going to Chanel my iner kranky kong, back then frame drops were even part of the gameplay experience (megaman, ninja gaiden, bomberman, etc) I get that for some people, frame drops can alter the immersion experience but, back then....
I'd play the first 4 or 5 hours or so, didn't gel with me at all, didn't like to play as Zelda and the echoes mechanic was very tiresome to me for some reason, trying to find the right echoe to summon never felt right (almost as tiresome as to find the right item in ToTK) my kids did like the game and finished so no money wasted.
I have no complaints, wish it had a better launch line up but still, pretty much what was expected given It basically launched with 1 game, (all the others stuff was already available on other platforms) and that is something only nintendo can get away with. Bananza looks like odyssey 2.0 so until Metroid drops, it will be an expensive way of playing my backlog.
@Slideaway1983 yes, is right there in the user terms of agreement.
But please don't let me (or anyone for thst matter) prevent you for using your MIG cartridge on your console, no need to let me know how that works for you.
@Misima Hello fellow gamer, I don't think its unfair, I just think the other user (to whom I did replied is using logic to justify things the wrong way) If you happen to have a falty product and end up losing your property, that is unfortunate and im sorry (it has happened to me too so, I feel you mate) having someone braking your car's window and taking stuff away, that is a crime, (it has happen to me too) but you don't see me buying a pirate Samsung tablet or a pirate HP laptop just so I can left my originals at home so they don't get stole or I'd lose em.
This isn't legit by any means (if you are talking about the MIG cart) it is not an official product made by Nintendo, it just seems you are trying to use logic to justify laziness.
Buy a case (to store your games when out of your house) and lern how to take care of things (so you dont lose your cartridges)
@MTMike87 Even thou you make a more than reasonable arguments on your post, I don't know if I fully agreed with you. I mean, Im on the older side of things (have 2 kids and reaching 40 years old) and I do test stuff if buying 2 hand. (Assuming this is a generational thing) Iphones are the some of the most (if not the most) popular phones on the market, I sure anybody who's going to buy a second hand Iphone know it has to be clean from any account.
People have learned to not buy a 2 hand Iphone that as already an Apple account associated with the divice (most of the times those are stolen phones) I guess if what you said is true, people will have to learn that With Nintendo products going forward.
Im sorry but im with Nintendo this time, (no "I paid for it so I can do whatever I want with it" BS) and for those going for a second hand Switch, you should do two things before buying:
●If you are in a public place, share internet with your phone so you can check it is not banned from online services.
●Buy only a system that has been factory restored and has no Nintendo account attached (and run the already mentioned test)
Well, it did not came as a Big surprise, when I first saw the game I get the oddisey vibe to the point i did considered this just a skin of that game, however koizumi is yet to let me down so fingers crossed
@Jeronan got it, thank you for the reply. I read somewhere that Nintendo used 2 screen suppliers and that on one of the screens this issue is more noticeable, maybe thats the reason it is more evident for some players, IDK, mine's look fine to me (but i have played just a few hours undocked)
I only have played a couple of hours MKW and Metroid Dread for a couple hours and enjoy my playtime just fine, however i have a question for the geeky guys, can this thing be solved via some firmware update?
Ny reasons for this are as follow: ●I did only buy MKW since is the only game not available in other platforms
●Will hold back on buying more games just because the Investment of a new game console ● will sell my copies of SF6 and Cyberpunk before buying the games again
●Game key cards and the prices of the SD express are holding me from buying new digital games
As the saying goes "play stupid games, win stupid prices" what they were thinking? That they could get away with this? Guess they found out the hard way
As many others have already said, gaming is one thing I do enjoy the most by myself so, this is an easy no from me, cool for the people that are interested in it.
I have the gamepass (ultimate) and didn't even knew till I played a game somebody gave me on my birthday (april) will game on switch 2 but im guessing ill relay on games depending the same factors as before, if its an exclusive on other platform, performance, availability and now pricing, I prefer to play on Nintendo consoles but will never pledge loyalty to no company, I will always look on my best interest.
They aren't going for money (but they can and most likely will do make Genki to spend alot of money into this) on this one, they will make a example of them, and rightfully so... Play stupid games, win stupid prices
