@BadPlayerOne So you paid TWICE for certain Games to make sure you have a copy in case the Service is shut down yet actively think Digital is better than Physical?
❗"With the PS5 and Xbox Series S/X, physical games are simply a delivery method; like digital titles, they have to be installed onto your console's SSD and cannot be run directly from the disc itself."
I have JUST learnt this via the quote above and am SHOCKED!
❗My prediction, and I'm always right on these things, is that the Steam Deck will OBLITERATE the Switch because all the Switch owners will trade or sell their hybrid Console to buy a Deck, meaning all the Switch sales numbers will actually REVERSE and go down as opposed to going up.
❗I think it will either SLIGHTLY beat or SLIGHTLY be under the Wii sales but it wont beat the GB or DS sales, even with the OLED model coming out or new Games yet to be released.
If the Switch really is halfway through its life, I can't see another 50 million sales in four to five years (to beat the DS).
❗I like this Game but there are a few niggles that need to be ironed out for it to be truly great:
1️⃣The money you collect needs to be spent on new moves or levelling-up 2️⃣Extra Lives are hard to come by 3️⃣The controls need an option to change them. -Anyone who has played the 'AfterBurner'-style level will understand. Also, on normal fighting levels, I'm uncomfortable with the punch/kick buttons being the outer face buttons.

Re: Metal Gear Creator Hideo Kojima Is "Afraid" Of A Future Without Physical Media
@zool "There has to be an incentive for gamers to change from physical to digital that incentive is probably price."
The incentive for me would be to trade in (or sell back) Games you didn't like, like you can with Physical.
The problem still with that is InterNet connection.
If it's down, can you play the Game?
What about if some idoit hacks the Service and deletes Games?
Re: Metal Gear Creator Hideo Kojima Is "Afraid" Of A Future Without Physical Media
@JasmineDragon 'Disc rot' as a so-called pandemic is used by the Media to frighten people into buying Digital.
I'll never fall for it because like you, I have a few CDs from the 80s and 90s and these work completely fine as we look after our items.
The only disc-rot I've ever had was on a Mega Drive Emulator for PC back in 2002 as it was on a cheap disc.
Re: Metal Gear Creator Hideo Kojima Is "Afraid" Of A Future Without Physical Media
@Dethmunk THIS is why I prefer Physical over Digital.
I. WOULD. BE. LIVID😡 if I had been a GooglePlay user and had that happen to me!

@Imerion And WHERE is my invite? 😛😛😛
Re: Metal Gear Creator Hideo Kojima Is "Afraid" Of A Future Without Physical Media
@TheBigK You say you wont touch played Games again which means these Games/Files are taking up space on your storage system.
The positive of physical is that you can sell/trade these Games in, ESPECIALLY if you don't like a certain Game.
With Digital, YOU ARE STUCK WITH IT!
Re: Metal Gear Creator Hideo Kojima Is "Afraid" Of A Future Without Physical Media
@Hav Then simply buy a S/NES Mini Console and load it with ROMs, as most people like me have.
Or buy a 'BittBoy: Pocket-Go' and load that with ROMs.
Like me.

Re: Soapbox: A Strange Desire For Switch Sports And A Return To Wii's Wuhu Island
❗Maybe they could include Wuhu Island in the Switch version of 'Miitopia' as DLC.
I'd buy that and in fact ANY DLC to support my favourite 3DS Game.
It would be nice to walk around Wuhu at my own pace without the time limits of the previous Games it's been in.

Re: Soapbox: Nintendo Switch Online's Library Is A Snapshot Of '90s Gaming Shelves
@XenoShaun It would be better if these Games had the n-word, y'know, for "artistic" reasons.
Re: Random: The Internet Is Dunking On Space Jam 2's Game Boy Cameo
@DrDaisy Well, it looks like XenoShaun was found to be in the wrong, after all.
He hasn't replied, meaning I got him banned banned.
So much for sticking up for racism 😊

Re: Lizardcube CEO Gives Intriguing Insight Into Origins Of Streets Of Rage 4
❗I, too, am glad this Game exists as with 'Double Dragon: Neon' as it brings these Game's series' from the 80s and 90s into the now.
I only wish Capcom would do the same with 'Final Fight'...
Re: Lizardcube CEO Gives Intriguing Insight Into Origins Of Streets Of Rage 4
@Tedikuma Same here.
I felt the SOR Games were stuck in the 90s, with the exception of recent Compilations.
I bought it physically and found it a bit harder than SOR1 (my favourite SOR).
Still, I'll get the DLC once it comes out.
Re: Random: The Internet Is Dunking On Space Jam 2's Game Boy Cameo
@XenoShaun You've been reported.
I'll let Kate or the male members of NL deal with the situation.
Re: Random: The Internet Is Dunking On Space Jam 2's Game Boy Cameo
@XenoShaun Closet racist much.
Either way, I've reported what you said.
Sticking up for a person who uses the n-word is not acceptable.

Re: Random: The Internet Is Dunking On Space Jam 2's Game Boy Cameo
@DrDaisy No, I reported him for showing support for racist words 😊
Re: Random: The Internet Is Dunking On Space Jam 2's Game Boy Cameo
@XenoShaun Search Google for 'Mike Matei' and then type the n-word and then you'll see Mike Matei as a racist.
#ThankMeLater 😊
Re: Random: The Internet Is Dunking On Space Jam 2's Game Boy Cameo
@XenoShaun Use the N-word in a non-racist way.
I'll wait...
Re: Random: The Internet Is Dunking On Space Jam 2's Game Boy Cameo

Re: Random: The Internet Is Dunking On Space Jam 2's Game Boy Cameo
@XenoShaun He IS a racist; He did a 'comic' using the N-word.
Re: Random: The Internet Is Dunking On Space Jam 2's Game Boy Cameo
@XenoShaun Wasn't Mike Matei a racist?
I wouldn't have anything to do with him...
