I wonder if they are shifting stock they won’t be able to sell in the EU anymore.

As long as jobs are kept.

Does seem a little wild that a third party dev that is bought and sold has access to such big IP. However I assume Nintendo and Capcom have NDAs out the wazoo.

I just hope they can finish starfield’s roadmap.

6 million sales. You can do it Switch!

So happy the studios weren’t closed down. Compulsion in particular. I do hope a new game in the south of midnight world can be created. I would love to join Hazel on another adventure. Hoping all the people that lost their jobs land on their feet.

I always feel that over a century old, Nintendo has perfected what works for it as a company, and that allows them to focus/refine their current product line and ventures into gaming. They are an entertainment (and card) company first and foremost, that happens to use gaming as one of their current mediums. Companies that do that tend to have deep roots.

The current dev cycle seems to work for Nintendo, allowing them to produce games on a near monthly basis. They simply do what other companies can’t right now.

I got a shiny new 1TB card so I’ll be playing download tetris lol. Considering setting up my OLED this weekend but the thought of migrating/downloading all that data makes my eye twitch. Also mounting speakers onto the drywall this weekend.

I just realized that with OOT getting a big remake, F4F might redo their OOT line. I might finally get that Sheik statue!

Just waiting on the last game.

This game looks so cool, so sad it is co-op.

He must be truly living his dream. Making characters he helped breathe life into move into cultural permanence.

FF15 flashbacks intensify

I wonder if Nintendo got enough headwind to figure out that sony would stop production within the switch 2 lifetime so they pivoted to GKC to have a cost effective option that allowed them to keep physical (especially for BC) but still court 3rd parties. Decisions like these all around are made in advance.

As a person that can’t use VR, I am very excited to play this.

As long as these changes don’t slow 3rd party support on switch 2.

I’m more curious about sales a month or two down the line but seems to be a nice start for star fox.

Hmm now I am starting to wonder if OST for these games have been released on CD.

I do wonder if this means PS6 in 2028 or 2029. I’m only curious for the price.

Can Switch 2 get the demo, capcom? Especially since it comes with an exclusive charm.

Lol that’s cute. I’m still buying digital though.

@Duncanballs Any good CRT suggestions? I keep talking myself out of one when I look at the price and shipping for the trinitron. I am fine with 13 to 20 or so inches. Thanks in advance.

I have the splatoon raiders amiibo preordered. Any games I want are going onto my BF wishlist. With the PS3 store going down I will need to increase my savings.

I think that will depend on publisher buy in. If publishers don’t want to pay for cards then Nintendo will slowly phase it out. I think they will ride out Switch 2. Next system is up in the air though.

No such thing as a bad RH game.

The wait until BF to buy this is gonna hurt. I will be playing the demo (and older entries) to death until then.

I just hope hard drives drop in price. Need to upgrade my PS5 storage again. I’m just glad I have a small PS5/series x collection. I don’t think I will get a PS6 (entirely dependent on Horizon 3 or Yotei 2 (or an exclusive Marvel game headlining Storm) coming out as PS6 only since sony cut PC support). And I know I don’t want a Helix. I don’t like the lack of choice, but I’m digital only on switch 2 forward, so I wouldn’t be impacted.

I’m wondering if the plan is to expand this game over the entirety of the Switch 2’s life. I’m certain Nintendo didn’t expect to turn 8 into a two gen spanning game and since that worked out so well that might be why they decided to make MK the launch flagship (in addition to MK being an evergreen series). Either way, I am happy to be here at the beginning.

This is looking like a great gen for Nintendo. So far it seems they are focused on delivering fun gameplay experiences to keep the Switch 2 library exciting. Looking forward to playing!

That sucks. Glad I bought it already.

Oh I didn’t realize it was out, physically. opens app to buy

Also, Adoring Fan! It is hilarious how Bethesda is leaning into that joke. Especially with the Starfield version. Now I need Maiq the Liar in starfield. Whomever does the marketing for TES for bethesda is great. Skyrim marketing was meta as well (especially the bit about skyrim on alexa).

Gosh this looks good! Haven’t been this excited for splatoon since the first one. Since I am a single player only gamer I let the series pass me by after 2. Happy to come back. Seriously BF is looking so good this year!

Nice! I still prefer the OG for PC and mods but I love Bethesda games on the go. Will pick this up during my BF haul. Glad I picked up a 1TB card recently. I’m just glad to get back to looting everything that isn’t nailed down (my major complaint with starfield).

This quote doesn’t seem to imply handhelds at all to me, still even if it did…

lmao good luck. If they make it switch 2 or better specs it won’t be 500 (sony is not gonna subsidize that). If it is a companion like the Portal it won’t sell enough (and will be expensive for what it is) to be more than added sales but not a replacement/competitive as alternative. Sony is horrible at supporting their handheld games after the first year or two so unless 3rd parties (who are already having issues juggling the platforms that exist) pick up the slack, the system will be a zombie. Also it would be a backtrack from their graphics first stance which will give xbox some more wiggle room (when they aren’t on fire). Plus, with MS’s ownership, sony doesn’t have the leverage they had with 3rd parties before.

I get that MS and Sony have to figure out how to combat component prices, especially now that nintendo is on a new cycle and thus is mostly hardware locked for at least the next 5 years, but trying to slide into a market they aren’t good at when they are already losing/barely holding on against the company that is good at that market (and had two gens to figure out their best version) that is just shooting yourself in the foot and pouring acid on the wound.

Also COL is going to show a change in how people game, over the next decade I think. Multiconsole/accessory gamers are going to decrease. Wealthy gamers/ disposable income gamers (not the same imo) will mostly still buy if nothing else than for the status symbol but everybody else will have to make hard decisions.

That being said… not my wheelhouse. I’ve decided to exit Sony and MS with their current consoles due to my age and poor ROI. Only way I’m buying a PS6 is if Horizon 3 and Yotei 2 come out or Sony pulls a Marvel hail Hylia and makes a Storm game.

It will likely drop off next week but still good debut showing. Hopefully this is the restart the franchise needs.

I’m less sad about starting over as I was with the first DD but I will likely get the expansion on series x as well. However this was one of my longshot wishes for switch 2 so I will be getting at launch.

YES! So glad I didn’t buy on PS5! woo my Black Friday is looking stacked!

I wish I knew enough ladies locally to do something like this. I’m in a few online nerd girl groups but it isn’t the same. (That being said my home is too small to host anyway…)

Looks like ya’ll had fun!

Just got the Lexar from costco.

Will try to mostly keep switch 2 games minus the fighting games on switch 2. It is time for me to redo my switch as I have 3.5 TB between 3 cards and I need to organize it.

Nice! With all the price hikes and potential new systems, switch 2 should be a good value for a while.

Especially with the variety of games.

I miss the WiiU.

Still, I would personally like to see more 3rd party collections. If NSO is what freed up licenses/project management thought for this (given the number of 3rd party collections on switch) then I hope switch 2 sees devs like konami and sega move past the gba era for collections.

Very cute statue!

Woo I can’t wait! So happy to play on switch 2!

I just love hearing that both parents shared the childrearing labor. That doesn’t always happen.

I remember wanting more fighting games at the time. Fighter’s destiny was interesting but not very good. (I played it to death though). That being said that era was when 3D fighting games were going through growing pains.

I wanted more adventure games as well. Goemon, OoT and MM were my big 3 but I wanted more.

Is there gonna be a console bundle to make GTA6 50 bucks? 😆

Also, it is still gonna break sales records. I’m shocked they didn’t just sell the ultimate edition only.

Welp I have never beat a star fox game; will be nice to try with the definitive one.

I’m not a fan of the art style, but if the game play is good enough, I will pick this up eventually.

lol No thanks, I have my originals.

nice! I am not a tekken fan, but will add this to the collection.
