Re: Soapbox: Be Happy, This Is The True Golden Age Of Gaming

As a longtime gamer, I am rather forgiving of graphics on the Switch. I was happy to play Space Invaders and Asteroids; look how far we've come. Plus, I can play handheld.

Also, I remember the console wars of the 90's and marvel that I can play Mario, Sonic, and Crash Bandicoot games on my Nintendo system.

When Nintendo releases the Metroid Prime games for the Switch, it will officially be my favorite console. F Zero, and Wave Race would be nice too. And StarFox without gimmickry controls...

Re: Limited Run Games Confirms E3 2021 Livestream

Lucasfilm Classic Games is $15 on the US eshop. If Limited Run releases a physical copy, it will probably cost $30 (using Star Wars: Republic Commandos as reference).

Edit: I was wrong; it's going to be $35 plus shipping. I'll probably wait for a sale on the eshop; I need to stretch my budget.

Re: Nintendo eShop Growth Continues With Massive Increase To Digital Sales

Gamer_Griff

@TDRsuperstar2 I have the same concern. I buy all of the major Nintendo games physical. The minor ones, like The Stretchers and Good Job! tend to be digital only. Indie games I am split on. I prefer physical but, many times, the physical copy is at least twice the regular digital price. So, I often buy the digital when it goes on sale. Hollow Knight is a prime example: the physical copy sells for $35 at Best Buy; I bought the digital version on sale for $10.
