@superguy123 I think this october will be the most I've spent on games in a month. ever. Too many good games coming out at the same time! 😂
Good "problem" to have I spose.

Are we sure these sales are accurate? Crash has been the top seller for like 3 months or something. 🤣
Says something about the lack of major releases from any studio since Crash dropped I suppose.

@superguy123 not to mention Megaman 11 and Starlink and on other systems: Fallout 76 and Soul Calibur VI.

@Joe-b in the US and Japan the NES was everywhere. If you didn't have one, you knew a kid that did. The Master System was most popular in South America of all places, did small business in Japan, and was virtually unheard of in the US.

I have bought or had bought for me:
NES, Gameboy, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Gamecube, Wii, Wii U, 3DS, 3DSXL, and Switch, NES mini, and SNES mini.
Lotta years of entertainment. Hope the Switch sells at least NES levels!

Going to finish up trying every event in Go Vacation. Maybe play some Paladins. Also thinking about dropping money on Metal Slug 4, Death Road to Canada, and Sleep Tight. The Valkyria Chronicles 4 demo was surprisingly fun, not sure if I want to preorder it or wait a year for a price drop...
Also, tried the DBFZ demo last night. Took 20 mins to get into a match, lost a round, started to win the 2nd, then the guy I was playing quit the fight. No real impression of it, just not sure its worth the time and effort of waiting around for another fight.

Demos you say? Could be potential in this lot....

I'm thinking of getting Richter Belmont because I like collecting amiibos of classic characters and I dislike Simon's Quest so much 😆

@EightBitMan if someone gave you a cart of gold, you'd complain it was heavy. I'd rather be happy with what we do get aka the widest gathering of 1st and 3rd party game characters, stages, and music in a videogame ever than cry about what we've "missed out on because Nintendo hates its fans". I heavily doubt you're one of them and if you are, who hurt you and why can't every portable offering on the Switch help?

Bosconian and Rally X arcade games.
A Soul Calibur collection.
Gundam games.

@Yorumi I can agree with that. I'm always worried of picking up a computer virus when I go looking for a hard to find classic rom game. I'd much rather pay Nintendo or Steam $5 for it.

I'm fine with roms on the net for download as long as the site isn't profitting from it. I think most game companies are too.
I have an xbox and a laptop with many NES, SNES, and Genesis roms on them. I used to own all the classic systems, but when they stopped working on my modern tv, I sold them for needed cash early in my marriage.
I hacked both my NES and SNES classic to include my favorite games.
On my WiiU and 3DS, I've paid for every NES, SNES, and Gameboy game I wanted to get my hands on because I love owning legal copies of these, supporting game companies, and playing a high quality version of the product.
On many systems, I've bought classic collections and classic games. On the Switch I look forward to being able to play most of my game collection in one place and I'll buy them outright or pay the monthly fee for access to classic games.

10,000 years ago, the blue tunic'd hero sealed away the Calamity Ganon after the crisis on infinite Hyrules where all 3 dimensions became one.
😋

American air force brat:
En Ee Es.
Super Nintendo.
Nintendo 64.
Sega Genisis.

Yoku demo for me.

Europe download before the North American one? Did the Earth begin rotating the wrong way again? 😋

Cool.
Hope Konami wheels out compilations of their old franchises, not to mention new games in the series. If Bomberman can still sell a million copies, I'm sure Castlevania, Contra, Metal Gear, or Silent Hill could also.

Downloading now. Every game needs a demo. I've purchased several games I wouldn't have based on how good the demo was.

@judaspete kitties, nooo! 😭
😺😸🙀

My interest leave August and September pretty open. Good thing I've got a few more Megaman X games to play through and Go Vacation.
Picking up the dpad joycon and eagerly awaiting Mega Man 11, Super Mario Party, Starlink, Let's Go Pokemon Eevee, and SNK Anniversary.

I found the NES ice climber to be a flawed, barely fun game with awful jump physics. There's a reason they never got a sequel and when they were added to Smash nearly everyone asked: who?
Nowadays they're a cute novelty in Smash because there's two of them. Just keep in mind, those two chibis also club seals in the Japanese version. 🤔

@judaspete I'm allowed to not like Arms.
I think I buy enough other games to make up for Nintendo's profit loss from me not buying one copy of it. 😋

@BouncingHat stock brokers hate Super Smash Bros. The random item drop is too unpredictable to be sure if they can beat their friend every time. 😄

Always wondered how the rich got richer. 😐
Wonder if Nintendo will/can do anything about the lack of stock confidence.

To the people calling Nintendo lazy: I'm sure every Nintendo gaming team is hard at work developing what they hope will be some of the most fun and profitable games to come out during their release years.
They're spending every day trying to tap into multiple markets and genres with one question to answer: will people find it fun?
If yes, they'll slap a 50-80 dollar tag on it and dispatch it to stores after they've polished 99.9% of the bugs out of it.
I hold no ire towards a company that spends every waking moment how to deliver fun to me for what's in my wallet. Fair trade and knowing Nintendo is already hard at work on the next 3D Mario and Zelda, you know it'll be worth the wait.

Going to be playing Megaman X4, Go Vacation, Paladins, trying a few other free demos and free to plays I found on the Switch eshop, and some Magic the Gathering card game with friends.

Never played this growing up. Only zapper game we had was Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt. I'd give it a whirl if it came with Nintendo Online

This is why Dpads used to be wired into a plugged in console. Everyone knows a dpad draws about 50 amps of power due to how complex and powerful it is.
Oh, that's not how it works? 😋

Game success-confirmed...
Activating cash launcher to begin sequel...

He plays by sense of smell.
What a wizard.

Should be coming in the mail to me this afternoon. Can't wait to have all of these portable like the other 10 Megaman games. Dream come true.

@bizcochototal they're "emulating" the games, not correcting them.
I owned the X games on Super Nintendo. They had slowdown back then. An emulated version of that will have it now.

Seeing these screenshots, all I can think is: Bring Area 51 to Switch!

Enter the Gungeon. Going to try to get some more items unlocked for the new DLC. One of my top 3 favorite Nindies for the Switch along with Shovel Knight and Vostok Inc.

@jockmahon I think demos in general are a good thing. I canceled my preorder for Arms after the first global testpunch, but on the other hand, I bought Vostok Inc and Pixeljunk Monsters 2 because I found myself playing their demos repeatedly.
I think demos make more sales than they lose.
I also bought Kirby after playing the demo, but I always knew I was going to get it because easy is what I want from my Kirby games. I avoid the more puzzly ones.

Character looks like the Door Monster from youtube.

@Coxula I've had over 200 attempts at the Gungeon.
There are 5 floors filled with monsters (don't worry about the secret ones)
I make it to floor 2 almost every time.
I make it to floor 3 most of the time, but it took a dozen or so attempts to git gud.
I make it to floor 4 about 1 in 3 runs nowadays.
I've made it to floor 5 probably a dozen or so times.
I beat the floor 5 boss 3 times.
I beat the a secret boss after gathering all the secret components in multiple runs once for the marine character.
Despite this steep difficulty and low chance of survival, I still say for me this is one of the most fun games of all time. If you like Roguelikes or appreciate very punny humor, this game could be for you.
Learn to dodgeroll and never stop moving.

@jobvd woo, more Enter the Gungeon goodness!

Switch is having an alright 2018. I've bought 10 games so far this year for Switch. Which is more than I've bought for Xbox One in the past 5.
I expect to pick up another 10 switch games before 2019.
I got about 30 switch games in 2017, so it will be less than last year, but still way more than any other game provider.

Great game! Better than the 2nd one imo.
Too bad I own on 360 and Xboxone already, otherwise I'd pick this up...
Maybe one day when its on sale...
If you don't own this and like South Park, it's a must buy though!

I preordered a physical copy as soon as it became available. 20% off with amazon prime. 😁

@jancotianno pretty sure the property owner is compensated when their game is free for a month.
Though, yes, to the subscriber/consumer it feels like a free game.

No videogame sales, but an air fryer, new bed pillows, and two high sided litter boxes for my cat that doesn't understand that just because your feet are in the box doesn't mean all the pee will wind up there too. 🤣

Wooo Nathan Barnatt!
Sega recruited the perfect guy for this job.

Shouldn't Crash be called a REENTRY also? It was released on PS4 a year ago.
Not that I own or want to own Crash or Captain Toad (just bad with puzzle games and Crash never clicked with me on PSone), just seems weird to label one as such, but not another port.
edit also, when will everyone in the UK own a copy of Crash? 3 straight weeks is impressive for sales, but the market needs to be saturated eventually. Right?
Now I'm just envisioning the character from Conspiracy having to buy a copy of Crash whenever he sees one. 😋

I doubt JRPGs will ever catch on in the West. Better send 4 copies to each store past preorders. 😆

@JHDK fun is fun. If some neckbeard tells you otherwise, punch them in the throat and go back to enjoying yourself.
I intend to pick this up due to my love of Wii Sports Resort.

"Sonic Team: nonstop disappointment since 2006."

The Switch has a huge library of games. Many are pure shovelware, but what console isn't loaded with that?
I myself have 40 playable games on my Switch. I feel regret for about 4 of those purchases, but its not because they're bad games, its because they didn't click with me.
I don't do sports, puzzles, jrpgs, tactical rpgs or metroidvanias, but those are personal tastes and there's more than enough games for me on Switch. Eagerly awaiting many more in the future.

This looks appealing, but I'll wait for reviews. Hoping this is $20 or less.
