@KraniX I'm well aware of the licencing issues in the industry. It's more of a hopeful wish. Disney gave Capcom their licence again - I just wish Capcom and Tatsunoko would work out a deal that would ultimately bring a remaster (with Samarai Pizza Cats inc) of TvC or a sequel.
Is it just me or should they have added Tatsunoko vs Capcom to this? Lets ignore licencing agreements for a sec. For me, this is the best in the "vs Capcom" series. MvC2 would also have been nice. Looks like they missed a great opportunity here....
As much as it's tempting to buy just for the AvP game - this price is frightening. I cannot justify for AvP and maybe Darkstalkers & Gigawing.
Just been playing this now I've finally downloaded it. Never played this before & I really wished they used Ecco: The Tides of Time. That was an awesome game & got played alot. So hard though. I look forward to many frustrating hours with this one. M2 have excelled themselves with this good looking title.
I've tried to enjoy Smash. My old office lapped it up, I couldn't enjoy it. Not even sure why, has all the ingredients I like. I actually enjoyed the 3DS' pre-Smash mini game more than the actual fighting 😂 Wii U was OK, but not able to enjoy it. Never mind.
I asked for remakes of Phantasy Star 1-4 & also Skies of Arcadia. I literally just purchased a bunch of these Dreamcast games in the last few days - it's meant to be! XD I missed Sonic completely - he needs a break. Actually wouldn't mind a Tails ONLY game though.
Hang on - Is RE4 the remaster edition or standard? Thankfully I have RE4 on disc but if I wanted a remastered version - I certainly wouldn't pay £30. The Steam version would get my money for this. If it was cheaper, then maybe this stranger might dive in.
While I'm against the continuous porting of Wii U titles to Switch - this is one I would fully support IF it's implemented right. This is such an underrated title that like Bayonetta, only gains followers over time.
To clarify - I'm only against Wii U porting as it seems to have replaced original titles being produced by Nintendo and delays my inevitable purchase of a console. None of the "Deluxe" titles are worthy of a double dip & console purchase as yet. Pikmin 4 however......
While I got a Wii U at launch - this game wasn't what I chose. I went with the ZombiU bundle since it was the best value. I did pick up NSMBU last year and it's miles better than the Wii & 3DS "New" titles and should be picked up by people who own a Switch but never a Wii U.
For me, it's another reason I can't buy a Switch yet. I refuse to buy games again I've already played - I'll wait for the revised Switch and a new Zelda title
I wouldn't mind the scores being dropped as long as there's a clear indication of a rating such as "Miss, Average, Good, Great, Zelda Worthy(because all Zeldas are Masterpieces allegedly) ". I do think people have different views on the 1-10 scoring, myself included.
I'm still using mine. Just picked up Lego Dimensions actually. My Wii U will be used for a good while yet - so many games on backlog at the minute. Lego games aren't doing me any favours - none are 100% yet.....ggggrrrrrrrrr
I understand Nintendo's point of view since they're still selling their old games, but I do think emulation is a fair way of sharing games that'll never see the light of day again like Robocop vs Terminator, old TMNT games and the like because of all the red tape involved.
Why are people upset over this? It truly baffles me. If you don't like the prices, then surely just shop around as not everywhere sells at the same price.
I would expect Switch games to be priced slightly higher due to manufacturing costs etc...but I haven't bought a game on release release day for years - except BotW on Wii U for fear of a low print run.
To me, games are always more expensive on the new console. It happened to Wii U as well. Games on launch day (AC3 & Black Ops 2) were already available and were priced less on other consoles but no one seemed to complain about it. Even games later released on Wii U suffered the same fate as the current Switch games. I don't think I actually have a point, just rambling on..... sorry
@Heavyarms55 Wii/DS servers died when GameSpy were closed as Nintendo was hosting them there.
In general, I don't see myself buying any more memberships for gaming as there's no benefit for me, especially since I generally play exclusively single player content. I have no interest in a paid service. If I want to play online, I use my Steam account. I think server costs are part of buying hardware (PS4, Switch etc..) & also part of the sale of digital content.
More Wii U games would be good so the 3DS doesn't take all the glory... Project Zero is tempting....would have preferred the Wii U version on sale though...
They got what they deserve. I have no sympathy for these people that have bricked their system. It's people like this that have helped shape the current industry by not paying for games.
Nintendo of Europe know about it, they've decided they'd rather cash in than follow Americas stance. I might have to buy a Switch from there if I decide to get one.
This has put me off buying a Switch for now. I'd use it docked permanently - but if it can't stand the heat it is a no go until the next iteration comes along.
Reminds of the 3DS XL hinge that always cracked on its own and the poor consumer had to pay to fix it, even though Nintendo knew about it.
Capcom should probably re-acquire the Tatsunoko licence and remaster/remake the vs Capcom game from Wii. That was so good. It'd give MvC the break it probably needs right now, after Infinite wasn't a big seller.
@Krull Not sure I agree. When Wii U launched, Ubisoft had both Assassins Creed 3 & ZombiU as launch titles so they could've made something available for Switch by now.
@wratih9 Snap, I've played CoD games for years. I really enjoyed the Wii U offerings and the free multiplayer was always active. Makes me want to dig out Black Ops 2 to check haha

Re: Random: Prince Harry Thinks Fortnite Should Be Banned
Oh my, I work for guy who openly admits he cannot say no to his boy as he's so precious & let's him do anything. WEAK.
If I ever said no to my folks.... my Mega Drive would've been gone even quicker! Forever.
Re: Soapbox: I Don't 'Get' Smash Bros. And I Just Don't Know Why
@Agent721 Totally agree. I found Fortnite dull, it just didn't resonate with me.

Re: This Is What Sonic The Hedgehog Probably Looks Like In His Upcoming Movie
@CurryPowderKeg79 I think it might be too close to call, but the Mario Bros movie now has a serious contender for the worst video game movie.

Re: The Top 10 Best-Selling Nintendo 3DS Games (As Of June 2018)
Surprised there's no Zelda. Ocarina and LBW were great (didn't play Majoras). Also surprised no Fire Emblem title was there.

Re: Nintendo Releases Complete Sales Figures For Its Million-Selling Switch Games
One day I'll grab a Switch....but so far, nothing is currently available that I really want. I like Mario, but not enough to buy the Switch for.
A new Zelda....will be tempted...especially if the console is a limited edition too....
