I own the original since i was a child. I still remember the store where i bought it with my sister (using both our allowances to buy it). I played it so much this game since forever... I can beat it entirely nowadays, but back in the day... It took me until i was 20 long years to finally beat it. Nowadays, from time to time, i put it (i always have all my consoles plugged), beat it, and have a good time.
I always thought of it like a Megaman-like and a good one in that. Lots of secrets (even entire stages!), incredible graphics, epic boss battles and four characters that plays absolutely different (but the dragon is op).
Wtf, online only multiplayer in a cooperative action platformer game? Dude. At least you should not force people into locking into one platform for that *****. Now i can't play it with my friend that was hyped as ***** only because we both bought in different platforms (me, nsw2, she, ps5) because we can't play it locally neither online because we bought it in different platforms. We both bought the collector edition (well, mirror edition) in my store and we can't play together. She even bought the other day another controller just for this game... And how can i say to her that we can't play it together? She is going to be totally devastated
@Medic_alert it's not entirely true. You, with a gkc, own an empty cartridge with an arbitrary code that let's you download a digital game. Once you don't have the cartridge, you lose the right to that digital game.
@Dr_Awkward is better in what aspect? Because... It's just the worst of both worlds with just the good part of being resellable. Uses space inside the memory but it ocuppies physical space. You need to install it but you also need the cartridge slot occupied. You need to go to a store to buy it but then you need to go home to play it... 6 hours later once it's installed.
@MasterGraveheart now that i think about it... Once the game loads and the console knows you have the gkc.... Does it need to stay inside? I mean, there is no need, all data is in the console.
Yeah, i only plan on buying games that comes on gkc that plan to play inmediately to then resell. I don't own nothing with these gkc, so... why keep them?
This should be a f2p game. It feels like f2p. It sounds like f2p. It's only online. Is the kind of game that you play once and then uninstall. I played one match in the beta test, i became bored, exited the game, uninstalled it and went to play a game. I don't get how nintendo is releasing... This. Nearly 90% of the time i spent with my nsw2 is playing offline because i am at the bus, the train, or at work, where we don't have wifi. So... What's the point of a game like this on the switch 2?
@spottedleaf i'm not a native english speaker, btw. So hermaphrodite is offensive in eeuu, but in my country is the name of the genetical deformity... Okay, sometimes you have to understand that is complicating things a lot for foreigners, xD
I've preordered the switch 2 to play switch 1 games portable in a bigger screen, without those little joycons, and without any other game in mind on switch 2 expect Fast Racing Fusion in my mind. Probably the only switch 2 game i will be playing in a loooong time. Switch 2 will be my portable device, switch 1 my tv console.
And my xbox for my big console releases. I have more than 400 games on switch, with more coming (14 games i have preordered just for this year, 1 limited run edition and 5 coming through playasia) and that's enough for not needing overpriced codes in a cartridge.
It seems i will be playing 10 more years mk8, as 90€ for a mario kart is not what i think is worth. And not only that, who thought that being open world was a good idea for a mario kart?
I will be buying the nintendo switch 2 to play nintendo switch 1 games portable on a bigger screen, with bigger controllers. Nintendo switch 2 games? At that price? Without the game inside the cartridge? No thanks. Multiplatform titles on key-card? I will be buying them on other console. For example: Raidou on switch 1 has everyting in the cartridge, why buy the nsw2 game?
Again? Gears of war remake for the second time? I did not like it the first time it released, i did not like it the second time, i won't be buying a third time the first gears of war. I wanted Halo, not Gears
As i said in the last GAME news, Game Spain was sold a month ago to a spanish investor group and we are now independent. So, if game uk closes, Game will still be alive in spain.
When you press it while being offline or without a subscription, it plays endlessly the Pause Song from Wario World, until you go online or pay for the service. And without the sorry at an hour.
I have just one thing to say about GAME: Game Spain is doing well. In fact, we recently got independent after we were bought by a spanish investor group. So, right now, Game Spain is not the same as Game. We have preorders. Well, we don't have because we had so many preorders that we can't physically fit them more in our stores.
@Danrenfroe2016 marketing purposes. I mean, if you push Nintendo section to the front of the store without any new hardware on the horizon, it means that the new hardware is going to be anounced. I don't think they are trying to boost Switch sales. They want to show more Nintendo from the outside for a reason.
@Burning_Spear and I thought i was a fire hazard for having Nes, Snes, N64, GC, Wii, Wii U, Switch, PSx, Ps2, Ps3, PS4, Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, Dreamcast, Neo Geo, Nes Mini and a Spectrum wired to the same TV
