Wish I owned a CIB of the PAL version, now only own PAL cart. Absolutely great game. Love to see this remade for switch, play asia lists a physical place holder...

They suck big time. Preordered 2 of these deluxe versions, then according to description they cannot guarantee this version anymore, yet they keep luring people with the title and image. So I got in touch via their livechat, nobody who works there knows but I was allowed to return it at my own expensive if I wanted to wait and see what I would receive eventually. So decided to cancel, as they do not even care. Then few days later I got in touch again hoping to catch someone who had a little service orientation, but this guy even told me they won't even ship this version internationally at all. You will see now that people are still getting it after all and I will regret canceling my preorder. And although I really hope to still get it some day, they can keep their stuff.
Since the hardware is almost identical for Switch and Nvidia ShieldTV and therefore easily could run Geforce Now, why do we need Stadia? Because it's Google?
Does this really look so bad according most people? Looks reasonable to me. It is no Doom or Wolf 2 but I have seen far worse 3D graphics and performance on Switch...
I remember playing this on PC back in the day with my 3DFX voodoo add-on card. Graphics look similar as how I remember them, but back then in super 640x480 resolution I think. It was unbelievable what this chipset could do in terms of 3D acceleration!
I would be interested to learn why we still do not have an appropriate more realististic race game. Is it simply because the Switch is underpowered for this or is there simply no AAA developer daring to invest because Switch owners are only interested in Mario Kart? V-Rally looked promising, but the whole chasing the sun or sudden eclipses close in front of you really kill it. Is it fair to expect Forza 4 xbox 360 quality on Switch or not? Or something like burnout paradise?
@joey302 it was a pity though that digital leisure canceled the combo who shot johnny rock/crime patrol/drug wars as it was supposed to be released after maddog "trilogy"... Would have loved those as well on Wii.
So basically, this article is about getting attention for his new game then? What a shame, but hey, I already gave up on this game anyway, like I did with Redout as well...
Well... "Soon" is a very subjective matter. And if I were NL I would be very careful with this interpretation statement.
Still I like to believe this statement about a revision soon. And even if they do, a revision does not necessarily equal more powerful hardware. Maybe it is just a 3DS - 2DS approach and we are getting a more affordable Switch "light"? And what exactly did the NEW 3DS later on bring to the table that 3DS owners are missing out on and how many games utilize it? Also in case of the Switch, Joycons and other peripherals have to stay compatible, it will not be easy. On the other hand also Wiimotes received an update later on with motion plus integrated. But it was simply backwards compatible and games had to make use of it.
@adh56 if a company managed to port RE2 to N64 on only 64MB while the original was 1400MB, who knows what some very efficient programmers could get on only 8GB.
In general they snould maybe not give developers such rediculous amounts of space...
Grabbing both! Yes pricing is not always easy to justify, however overall, LRG manages to sign must-have games and if the pricing of today's retro games is a reference for Switch games in 30 years, I do not have to worry about my future pension
Not that it will be easy as a serious collector to sell any of these games... Even then I would like to leave behind a nice legacy
Only thing that annoys me is that it takes like forever to finally receive those ordered LRGames.
Ordered it from Amazon for 70 EUR. Still have 50gb left on my 200gb card, but it is time to replace it with such a great deal! 400gb on half of your thumb's nail size... We must have been tricked in the past decade
Paid 38 EUR on Friday at wehkamp.nl and received it next day. On Saturday it was 45 EUR. 38 EUR is a very good deal! Waiting for it to become 30 EUR will probably take a while. Time that I find worthy 8 EUR
