Semi-related. I used to be a Manic Depressive until I took up DJ'ing.

This would be so awesome to buy if it were actually on a cartridge...

I pre-ordered it simply because of this mentality and I don't even care about the game.

@vincentgoodwin
So?

Nobody buy them.

I want a proper follow up to Wave Race Blue Storm.

@datamonkey That's basically the reason why I'm buying it.

I never cared for the WW HD remake because they changed the graphic style too much. The lighting looked wrong.

@shake_zula That's what I keep noticing. It doesn't share the gameplay of the previous games at all. Shinobi was a Run 'n "Gun" as it were. This is not that at all.

1 Blue Storm was entirely superior to the original. 2 It either needs a full on conversion or a proper sequel.

Those three games have been up for pre-order for three weeks already and none of the boxart featured the game-key card logo. Not sure why this is a surprise.

@electrolite77
I don't know why you're lumping me in with anyone else. My reason is purely pragmatic. Never argue for a higher price for yourself. Don't give them the money, let market forces press things down.

This is almost nearly the case in the US too.
Time to start boycotting third party games...

I still don't understand why everybody keeps saying F-Zero, F-Zero, F-Zero. Fast has always been more akin to Wipeout.

@Pat_trick It's not that either. They aren't responsible for you, anyway.

They lack situational awareness.

It is training the Corporations it's okay to charge more. If they raise the price and the market doesn't react negatively, or negatively enough, that's the new price.

I can afford $80 for a game, but I don't want to pay $80 for every game and I don't want to train Nintendo to do this. It's a dumb tactic to negotiate a price upwards.

Hopefully there's a lot more that's clever we haven't seen yet but it looks on the surface to be very smart. Like a mix of BotW traversal and Captain America shield combat. Put that thing on a chain and you can borrow from Rygar too.

Based on the video it didn't look particularly free-flowing and was downright clunky in many spots.

@jfp Why are you playing a fighting game with an Analog stick?

Here's an idea, Nintendo, get rid of the stupid mechanism altogether. The half-step is an indicator it needs to be done.

@kedireturns
Nintendo saved an industry written off as a fad. Still going 40 years later. Cry harder, child.

@Dhaladog Have you never played a shooter on a PC before? Mouse controls are absolutely superior to stick control aiming.

This opens up lots of gameplay options if it's that easy to switch between modes.

@VoidofLight They didn't say they wouldn't. Krysta said they shouldn't.

Except we've seen the side-by-side videos. It's creeping far closer to the PS5 in capabilities to just call it a portable PS4. It's more like a PS5- or a PS4Pro+.

@Medic_alert Drive space is limited.

@Arawn93 Texture resolution wasn't nearly as high on the Switch version either. That already greatly reduces file size.

@KociolekDoSyta
What are they supposed to sell the games on then? You want a full size bluray drive attached to the back of your handheld?

@Dimey Paradise City did it long before Forza.

@ChromaticDracula They have shown some weather effects.

@DonkeyKongBigBoy Final Fantasy 3 was $80 here in the US way back in 1994.

Upping resolution, etc... is nice but I honestly feel like some of the graphical changes made hurt the cell shaded look.

The wording on the box doesn't follow. Includes original game and upgrade pack. Upgrade pack also available separately. Even still, it's not like a patch being downloadable is some newfangled idea.

It was Nintendo's show to mess up, and boy did they ever.

@Ristar24 It's even more frustrating because Nintendo were the FIRST ONES to do it back on the Gamecube.

@Ralizah Cyberpunk was only a 7 week build, not even two months of effort. And, really, we should listen to joe rando in chat versus the group who actually develop on these platforms?

Know why Rockstar started floating the idea GTA6 could be $100? They were getting you ready for a $100 price point. Now everybody wants to pretend Nintendo is setting the trend. Try buying new Fighting games on Steam, you'll be paying $150+ for a full roster/features.

@Truegamer79
I've been saying this for forever. Look at some of the initial drawing Miyamoto made and the first arcade cabinet artwork. They went ALL the way back.

Why would heavier mean better? All cell phone companies do is try to make their phones lighter and easier to hold? Having a heavier hand-held is the complete opposite of progress.

@n1985 I don't get it. I loved the WiiU, the Switch was even better.

@mjhopkins81 You clearly have no memory of 2005...

Physical is just a code on a cartridge, no sale.

This rumor doesn't make any sense.

Now we have a relative time frame for Capcom Fighting Collection 2...

Downloaded it. I'd give it a 3. It's a really boring/stiff Contra.

@StraTTtheRipper It's on Steam, and isn't very good.

@Spider-Kev Where?

@Spider-Kev They can't block Spider-Man from being in Switch games. He was in Ultimate Alliance 3 and the MvC collection.

@T317 It has to be kind of weird, though. They have to balance the well known characters like Wolverine and Cap with the characters who actually appeared in Annihilation, and even most of the known characters from Annihilation looked a lot different to what most people would know.

Though they oddly went with the 90's Pony Tail Nova too...

I absolutely hate this artwork. Byrne, Cochrane, Adams , Portacio, Lee... nope, let's make it look like Marvel Super Hero Squad.

You have the ability to make a game look precisely like the comics and instead all of the Marvel characters look like those squat, fat $4 toys instead.

Could be June, probably August.
