Most of us posting here will either be replaced by AI or be displaced by it. No one truly realizes what's coming.

@nukatha That is pretty sweet.

Hopefully the Metroid curse doesn't hit again.

I think the big issue with Wilds is that it lost the heart of what made the game Monster Hunter. It's not a bad game it's just not as good as Rise or previous ones, it feels like it was too ambitious. Also I feel like the areas are way too big for what they are.

They may have the switch 2 Firmware source code, and if happened then that's it. They'll be able to comb through it and find all the security holes and then custom firmware is on its way.

In Canada the system is still ridiculously expensive so probably not until there's a lite system.

Saga hurt themselves by making it so expensive imo.

All the DLC for this game should have been free imo.

This is nostalgia at its best lol.

@Jujuman every game is inspired by previous games, it is wholly impossible to have a fully unique game without using some of what's been done in the past.

My best friend is making a video game and one of his mechanics is summoning an enemy to fight for you shortly. He's doesn't give a ***** and I don't think anybody else should and just make your goddamn games the way you want to. Not to mention being Canadian makes it way harder to act on that anyway.

Nope, still have the ROMS on my hacked Wii U.

@StewdaMegaManNerd there's a YouTuber who's remaking Mega Man legends in unity, it's quite impressive.

More lame nostalgia grabs.

This is the first Nintendo generation I said no to. Far too expensive of a system.

System is still too expensive, thankfully the sales have slowed. Maybe all of these price hikes will backfire on all these companies doing this bs.

They're nerfing the world just like every other company.

Regardless of what he says games are indeed art, every aspect of a game is art.

@KritterXD true, I guess even my hard drives with full game libraries will die eventually too. I'll just have to find something with more longevity to store it all on.

@Polley001 Not the point, they will go down some day and when they do it will all be more grabage to polute our planet with.

They also sell a dockless system in Japan and it is way cheaper.

@Ulysses Ya, I haven't worked in over a year because of my disabilities, we just have 1 income and it sucks.

Damn some of you must have loads of spare cash lol.

Just take the summer off and relax, that is why there is employment insurance.

Just remember you're going to own nothing and you're going to like it.

@MrDocena Not true, the ability to redownload them is going away too at some point for all your listed platfroms.

https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3764/~/how-to-redownload-wii-shop-channel-content-on-wii

If you read all of it you will see I am right.

@MrDocena if they turn the servers off that you're downloading your game from you can no longer access it with the game-key card. It becomes a piece of e-waste.

@MrDocena They come out looking like the good guy even though they created the situation with the way it is now and then releasing their full games on there. I'm imagining in two to three years we'll see only key card games. Doug Bowser even said they plan on doing physical in the immediate future which is very specific wording. A lot of these other Publishers don't want you to own your games so having a lifespan on them is what they want and that's how the key cards are going to really work. If that publisher decides they don't want people to have access to that game 10 years from now they can do that just fine and there's nothing you can do.

There's a recompilation of this being worked on, it's going to be awesome to see a native PC port.

I mean their plan is quite obvious, Nintendo hasn't been shy or queit about hating the second hand market and how they don't get any revenue from it. It's pretty obvious from an intelligent person's standpoint that this is them muddying the waters and making it harder for secondhand sellers.

@Razzy I most definitely did read it and that's just a scare tactic since they don't have a legal leg to stand on to destroy hardware that YOU own.

Not having online functionality is disabling the Nintendo switch in their own wording.

But Wart only exists in dreams.

They ban you from all online services, they do not "brick" your console.

When a console is bricked it no longer even posts and needs to be factory reset and they do not have the legal right to do that because that's destroying your property.

@MrDocena The switch 2 is nowhere near comparable to a high-end PC let's get that straight out of the gate.

My $1200CAD Laptop from 2024 for example has 13 teraflops of compute, the switch only has 1.7 in handheld and about 3.1 in docked mode. It heavily leverages AI to do what it does.

@TanukiSan7x considering there were games that had basically completely destructible buildings and maps in the 360 era, I don't think it's much of a leap to be able to do that on the switch.

@HistoricKombat they're going to have no choice when they noticed the vast majority of people can't fork over a 1k for Next generation.

There will be an initial sales spike like there is every generation with the diehards that have more money than brains and then it will taper off very quickly.

The new Donkey Kong does not look like it warranted a new platform for it, I bet you it would run 30 locked on the OG switch with a bit of optimizing.

I won't be buying anything lol.

What else is new, the high seas be calling mates.

They should be selling a dockless SKU that just comes with the system and nothing else.

It's going to steeply fall off after a few months just like the Wii U did. Nobody I know can afford it lol.

It would definitely be nice if they had a version of the system that was just the system with none of the other added things.

@cedarhyped It won't do well in this economy.

@Friendly my guess is they will still sell about 5 to 10 million units and then it will taper off quickly until the 1st price drop.

People need to start voting for basic income. You have no job security.

Such a great idea to kill off physical media by lying to us for two console Generations saying that the cost of games is going to go down because they're not doing physical anymore and now they just charge whatever the ***** they want.

Honestly if the price increase on the game is covering future DLC it's not as bad especially if they keep updating it for the life of the system. If they're asking for paid DLC on top of this then it's a no-go for me.

I will stick with Dolphin. Many of these games are 20+ years old and that makes them fair game for emulation imho.

I can guarantee from a money-making standpoint it's going to be their worst launch ever.
