Re: Randy Pitchford Defends Borderlands 4 Pricing Comment

His delivery was piss poor... and the high price tag kinda makes sense with packaging in the retail space. Why is the game not less when being offered in a digital format? Plus, have they confirmed that the whole game will be included on the disk? I doubt that it will be.

Re: Talking Point: Are You Ghosting Switch 1 To Save Yourself For Switch 2?

Just because the Switch 2 is on the horizon does not mean it cut into my time. I mean I FINALLY beat Xenoblade Chronicles X. With that accomplishment I will probably just wait for Switch 2 because if I want to play another game, I will want to test out the backwards compatible with some games. I tried new DOOM on my PC and runs pretty well so I will play that. So, it's on to the new Switch next month.

Re: Nintendo Switch 2 Final Tech Specs Have Been Confirmed

Cool! Specs!... Don't get me wrong this is kinda cool from a nerd standpoint. To me specs just add fire to the console war conversation of which is better (which I'm over with.) Let us see what devs will do with the new power. To me the GameChat is not going to take off and another service that Nintendo is going drop just like MiiVerse. It will always come down to the games and how optimize they are.

Re: Nintendo Shares More Footage Of Zelda: Wind Waker On Switch 2

If it runs better than the HD version I'm here for it. Since its included with my extended membership. I'm here for it. Are people only wanting the HD version because they don't like it being locked behind a paywall. Or maybe they don't have a Switch 2. or maybe they think clay/smooth looking version of the HD version is just better?

Re: Talking Point: With Prices Rising, Are Your Gaming Habits Changing?

N8tiveT3ch

This might be just me being old head and have grown up with the industry. As I get older, I find myself being interested in other things besides gaming. I can still put in the 3 hours or more, but I must really really like the game. With my hobby getting more expensive I might find myself becoming a pure casual. Just life, I guess.

Re: Grand Theft Auto 6 Has Been Delayed And Will Now Launch In May 2026

N8tiveT3ch

Well, I'm not surprised by it because of the scale of the game and no information up to this point. Now call it tin foil hat but the game would have come out this year if it was not Nintendo jump starting the price increase to games. With GTA already expected to be a BILL the extra time gives everyone to adjust to the new norm. Either way it is going to sell because well...its GTA. I won't be on that boat when it comes out.

Re: Poll: So, Did You Manage To Get A Switch 2 Pre-Order In? (North America)

N8tiveT3ch

Yeah, I got my order in at Best Buy last night. Waited in that line for about 15-30 mins before the page refreshed. I was in line for the base console and the bundled...the bundled refreshed first and that was the one I picked. I was going to get the base model but can't be picky in these types of situations.
I tried target first and that was crap because it would not let me checkout so I gave up. I tried Walmart and got in line and when it was my turn, I just let the timer go because Best Buy order was already in.

Re: Opinion: Steam Deck Fans Are Seriously Underestimating The Switch 2

N8tiveT3ch

Call me an old head but I stop trying to sell people on consoles, hybrid devices, and ecosystems. Do or buy what makes you happy.

The only people who care about the argument are people who feel they are getting flack for owning or wanting a specific device. This usually includes gaming journalist, streamers and their followers, and usually youngins' who don't have anything else going on.

For me specifically it will come down the games I want to play. That tends to be Nintendo IPs. Sure, I can buy bundles after bundles of games and never play them once...how is that sensible?
