@NinjaSyao This was my first thought, MATCH THE NAMES IN THE SUBTITLES TO THE AUDIO I SELECTED. My Japanese isn’t what it used to be, so I do turn on the English subs, but that only confuses things more when it comes to XBC. An option for faithful subtitles (regardless of changes made to the English script) would be way more helpful than lip sync for me.

I’m glad everyone is excited about the upcoming titles, but not one of them is for me. I loved XBC:DE, but find the combat in XBC2 too obtuse, which makes 3 not very exciting. Loved Splatoon 2, but 3 hasn’t shown me anything to get excited about. BOTW 2 would have been enough for this year, hopefully they’ll have something else up their sleeves.

I picked this up on sale recently and was pretty excited to try it out. It literally made me sick. After an hour of playing I put on some sea sickness bands and took it back to the store. I wouldn’t leave until they refunded my money. I haven’t had such a reaction to a game before.

@Bizzyb Just saw Best Buy has the release date as 7/31, so you’re right. The wait isn’t too long. Preordered!

Looks really cool! Beat ‘em ups just aren’t holding my attention for long these days though.

Might pick this up if it’s more kid friendly than Stardew.

Put these on a cartridge and we’ll talk.

@Orokosaki Ooooh, that’s a nice thought! Hopefully it does get some nice DLC! Thanks

@Orokosaki Can’t speak for anyone else, but I’m very patient. Can’t imagine ever spending $25 for a digital file. For some reason digital goods are all but worthless to me. Looking forward to this cartridge.

I can’t buy from strictly limited anymore. Their dollar prices are higher than their equivalent in Euros, they don’t remove the VAT, then I have to pay my local taxes, and international shipping. It’s just not worth it.

Launching unfinished killed it for me. If it’s confirmed to get an updated version with everything on cart later then I will consider it. Until then forget it.

When are we getting that Rondo of Blood localization for TG-16? Can’t wait!

I’m waiting for the two pack physical release.

I ordered the collection when it was announced a few weeks ago. The next day strictly limited increased the dollar price by quite a bit. It seems like they’re making US buyers pay the European VAT tax and on top of that pay our local tax rate too. Their games were already pretty pricey, but this just makes them outrageous. I won’t be buying from them any more until they figure out how to make it more reasonable.

I definitely want a copy of this. I can wait for a sale though. Looks like a perfect collection!

I’m interested in the game, but hate the fact these additional sports won’t be on the cart. I’ll probably hold out for a revision when it’s complete.

@Preposterous I’m with you 100%. I sometimes find myself thinking Steam Deck might be cool, but then remember it has no physical games.

The only positive to digital is that they often sell those games on sale for about what they’re worth, a few bucks. For some reason I just don’t value digital games. I’ve got hundreds of free games from the Epic store, and have never even bothered to play one of them.

Everyone is moving to a subscription model and hoping that their customers will just set it and forget it. That has been a good business model up to this point. But with EVERYONE doing it I think the music will stop at some point with people realizing they are just throwing money away (if you’re playing NSWO you aren’t watching that Netflix sub you are paying for, etc). Then many companies are going to have to figure out a new model or die.

Lol, I was just thinking that I should offload my copy of this and Smash. I’ve had them since launch but they just don’t appeal to me. I need a list of the best places to sell

Any opinions about the best one to start with? I realize that Beginnings was made first, but most people in the west didn’t get to play it until I think the WiiU era.

I keep hearing that 2022 is “stacked” just with what we know about, but not for me. BOTW 2 is the only announced release that has me hyped.

I loved Splatoon 2 and have more hours in that than any other game on switch, but Splatoon 3 looks like more of the same. I’m not a Pokémon fan, but Arceus looks like it might be worth a try, same with Kirby, but hype level is meh for these. I really hope Nintendo has something more. It doesn’t take much to make me happy, even just bringing over some classics (to buy, not a subscription) would be something to look forward to.

Can't say it looks as good as the amazing Ninja Spirit referenced, or even Shinobi. But might be worth a try.

I’m waiting for the 2 pack. I got burned buying one of their previous Star Wars titles.

I love this series. Played all 4 on the TG16 back when they were new. I came very close to preordering from Playasia a few days ago, but decided to wait. I’m so glad I did.

Trilogy would be a day 1 purchase (even though I already have it on Wii). Remastered version of 1 I would definitely buy once it hits $40.

@Dilly-Mick I love Pikmin, but find this “game”boring. I couldn’t believe this got an 8, but after reading the description you posted it makes sense. I don’t enjoy the pedometer genre, LOL.

Was hoping to grab one of these before my Nintendo Online account expired. Oh well.

I love Mario Party, but after paying full price for the last one I think I can hold out for it at $40 on sale next year.

I like all 3, but 1 was perfect. I don’t like switching back and forth between characters.

I’m glad for people who love it, but it’s one of my least favorite Mario games. The best part were the 2D levels. For a long time I hoped they would Captain Toad those by releasing a game just based on them.

Has no one thought to try it with Mario 64 on Mario All Stars?

Don’t have time to watch the video, so don’t know if it’s in there.

I don’t remember much about Other M. I bought it and sold it off pretty quickly. I never do that.

The timing of this is suspicious. So far we have heard from a bunch of ex-employees and no one else. If they have a toxic work environment then they should fix it, but I’m not going to make snap judgments based on so little real info.

If true then Nintendo made a big mistake. They could have just bought every subscriber a Genesis Collection download and moved on. I won’t ever be paying for this subscription, and in truth am planning to let my regular subscription expire in a few weeks.

Should they be credited? Yeah. Is this a big deal? No. There are many ways of putting yourself out there these days, and potential employers can just search on LinkedIn or other sites to find the people they need. They could just as easily move to not doing credits, like in TV. The first few times you get credited it’s cool, but you get over it quickly.

I’d like this, but probably going to wait for a sale unless my siblings across the country get it. It’d be great to relive old times playing with them, only online this time.

The only reason I’ve had NSO for the last 2 years is because my kids were playing Splatoon 2 regularly. That’s not the case anymore, so I won’t be renewing until I have a need to. This announcement didn’t change that, and wouldn’t have even if it had been free.

Trying to finish up Windwaker for the first time on WiiU. I played on the GC back in ‘05, but never finished. Restarted about 2 years ago, but didn’t finish. Picked it back up a couple weeks ago and want to finish before Dread comes.

I don’t think a 4K Switch is coming anytime in the next 5+ years. Even the Switch 2 is unlikely to support 4K. This is Nintendo, the company that didn’t do HD until the WiiU.

I was disappointed, but there were a couple little things for me. Seems like the story of the last 2 years, other than when Metroid was announced. People always say this fall is really stacked, but other than Dread there are a few games coming I might pick up on sale. No day one stuff.

@Darkyoshi98 Not necessarily. If you play a few N64 games in the first month and then don’t play them the rest of the year then you would’ve been better off paying for just a month of the higher tier.

But your point is well taken, as I mentioned in another post I’m averse to ongoing charges no matter their frequency. I seem to be one of the few though because every company is adopting the subscription model. I think there will come a breaking point for customers.

I never played this, and would be interested but for the fact that you have to pay for a service to play it.

I sold my N64 because there weren’t many games I was interested in and there was still talk of putting Zelda on the 64DD. I didn’t want to have to invest in more hardware for one game (and I would have because Zelda is my favorite series). I still think the N64 library is the weakest of all Nintendo systems save the Virtual Boy, despite having a handful of the best games of all time.

@MichaelP Why would anyone think that? I’m not trying to be contentious here, I really don’t understand where you got that idea from. Is it because I said monthly fees? I guess that was poor wording, I usually say that in regard to streaming services. But I’m just as averse to any ongoing charge. I pay $35 a year for the family plan because my kids still play Splatoon 2, but I wait until they ask me before renewing it. I actually have a year code I got on discount that I haven’t entered yet.

Hmm, it’ll probably come to LRG and then get announced in a double pack for retail when the second one is announced.

Not getting this. I’m averse to monthly fees. I hate paying when I’m not using something.

If it’s physical, day 1. Hopefully the LRG one sold well enough that Konami will consider releasing it themselves.

Nice deal! I managed to score a copy at 30% off through a coupon (probably wasn’t meant to apply to preorders, but it did), so looking forward to getting my discounted copy too

Inflation is running rampant in the US. Probably why we aren’t getting a price cut.

I’ll take that Master System shoe, but not from Nike.

Crunch sucks. I’m happy to wait.
