@Slim1999 I’m not dumb, I know nobody does that. Doesn’t mean I don’t wish they would. I’m realistic about my expectations and I know it won’t happen, but in a way it would make sense so I just expressed my thought. If they did that it would be easier for me to buy it since I’ve already gotten all the value out of the races (and if I hadn’t my Wii U is still hooked up) so this game to me is literally just the Battle Mode. In fact, if they offered the Battle mode as $30 DLC for Wii U I’d forget about the Switch and just buy it on Wii U.
Now that I think about it, if they'd just offer the battle modes as DLC on my Wii U for $30 I'd buy that in a heartbeat, but I don't want to drop $60 for just battle mode.
The only Wii U game that I regret downloading. I love downloading games as it is super convenient and keeps my kids from ruining and losing them. However, I would love nothing more that to sell my copy so that this game doesn't cost me as much. My wife and I played this game a TON and got gold cups on every race in every cup (including DLC) and every class (including 200cc) and so the racing side of this game does not interest me. As far as I'm concerned this game will be called Mario Kart 8 Battle Edition. And I want the game for the battle modes, but $60 is a lot to ask for just Battle Mode. I wish Nintendo would scan my account and see that I bought the game and the DLC and offer me a $20 discount for the game.
Does anyone have any idea how many copies of Bomberman R Konami would have to sell to consider it a success. I've really enjoyed the game and I'm surprised to see it's the 3rd best selling Switch game in Japan (I would have expected Dragon Quest Heroes or Puyo Puyo Tetris)
Here's my question: Does anyone know if Japan is sold out of Switch like we are here in USA? If they aren't then I will expect a spike when Mario Kart Releases and another spike for Arms and Mt Everest spike when Splatoon 2 releases. However, if they are sold out or mostly sold out then the releases of these games won't make a dent.
@NewAdvent Even if sales slow down come autumn (and why would they with Fire Emblem Warriors, NBA 2K18, Skyrim, Runner 3 and Sonic Mania very different games from 4 very different genres) they'll pick right back up starting Black Friday, between Christmas purchases and people just wanting to play Mario Odyssey, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, and Sonic Forces. That's the beauty of the March release diehards like me already have a Switch so now those that would only buy it as a Christmas gift or when there are more BIG GAMES might actually be able to get their hands on a system (at least I hope Nintendo produces enough to meet demand soon).
@Nico07 Thanks for the heads up. When I made the order there wasn't a picture, but I just went back and looked and my order history shows the Male Corrin.
@Zingo @Luffymcduck @Nik-Davies Can you play the 2 V 2 with all 4 people on the same Switch? Or does it require 2 Switches? Or does it require 4 Switches? (I'm hoping only 1 is required, but that you can do 2 or 4 if you want)
I decided the only one I'm willing to drop money on is the Corrin one. I'm not sure if it is the male or female one, but I pre-ordered Corrin from Best Buy last night.

Re: Super Bomberman R Is Getting A Free Content Update This Week
@Darkthany we like to team up against the AI players. We frequently beat them, but not always.
Re: Super Bomberman R Is Getting A Free Content Update This Week
@Zeargo That's great to hear! I hope you enjoy it as much as we have.

Re: Nintendo Download: 13th April (North America)
@JHDK What about the multiplayer? I'd want to play with my wife and/or son
Re: ARMS Punches Its Way Onto Switch On 16th June
@BlueKnight07
Empty May should have been expected. Otherwise we'd already have Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.

@JHDK How's Blaster Master Zero? I've been considering it.

Re: Check Out These Limited Time Micro SD Card Deals From Amazon
@nhSnork I bought a 200 GB for mine. At $69 that seemed like the sweet spot considering I'll download most games.
Re: Check Out These Limited Time Micro SD Card Deals From Amazon
@GoldenGamer88 @FTPinkRabbit Actually it was confirmed that it was NOT the switch. It was a problem with the Micro SD cards.
Re: Check Out These Limited Time Micro SD Card Deals From Amazon
@FTPinkRabbit Yes they will
Re: That Bayonetta Countdown, Unsurprisingly, Was for a PC Port
@PlywoodStick I respectfully disagree. Nintendo Switch is the best platform in my book.
Re: Nintendo Direct Confirmed For 12th April - Focused on Splatoon 2, ARMS and More
@Menchi187 I've played Bomberman online. Others have played Fast RMX online
