@rjejr that totally makes sense, definitely need to be more upfront about it and explain better. $450 is a lot of money just to let you spend $10-$20 more on these upgraded versions, but really that's just how games are gonna cost from now on, I don't think it's fair to ask if a switch 2 edition looks $450 better then its switch 1 edition cause you only need to buy the console once to get access to all the switch 2 games, the cost will even out with the more games you buy. Definitely respect your opinion and value perception though
@rjejr the thing is, were getting the switch 2 editions for metroid, botw, totk, mario party, kirby forgotten land, and pokemon z-a. Sure they aren't "exclusives" but they are gonna look so much better that it will seem like it (especially pokemon)
@Medic_alert in the "ask the developer" articles, one of them said they reworked both the Eshop and the sticks, so it's likely they will be fixed, but who knows
@Xenoblade-Fan Nintendo said from the start that it would only be free for a limited time, that was just to get people to sign up for it so they were more likely to start paying for it when that expired
Yeah so I've had problem, right after the update finished downloading I got a notification that my SD card wasn't working. I tried fixing it and trying it in different switches but it turns out the update bricked the whole card, I've lost all my photos and had to buy a new card to redownload all my games.
@Alpha008 Or maybe they don't actually care if people share it online because this is all for free publicity. people are way more interested in the game now then if Nintendo just dropped a trailer
Mario party 10 is criminally low, the 5 player bowser mode was awesome, there was lots of boards, it looked beautiful, and I rather liked the Mario Party ganes where everyone is in the car together
Its definitely the best of the Wii/WiiU Mario Parties
I'm slowly beginning to think we won't see the switch 2 this year... I cant see them showing a trailer in November or December so we're running out of time
I'm betting (desperately hoping) on a gamepass sort of thing where they will let us have some indies or older switch games for free if subscribed to the expansion pack
@CazSonOfCaz We're not really sure why, but Nintendo doesn't like to give Amazon pre-order copies sometimes. Some people speculate that they are trying to keep copies of the game from being shipped early, but Nintendo and Amazon have had some disputes for years now, so its not super clear.
@scoot You're absolutely right, it happened when they shortened the time it takes for an item box to respawn, it was during one of the last booster course updates. The game is so brutal now
Im actually extremely hyped for mario party, in my opinion we haven't had a truely great one since the gamecube days
Seeing as how the wii and wii U games had everyone in the same car the whole time and the switch games suffer from lack of characters and boards to play on
