Re: Sine Mora EX Listed for 8th August on European Switch eShop

ThomasBW84

@Spoony_Tech I don't think the 'Switch tax' is the norm, thankfully, as most eShop games have had sensible pricing either similar to or a tiny amount above Steam prices, for example. Just this week Overcooked Special Edition had a sane price compared to PC (when you consider the DLC included as part of it), and Infinite Minigolf is the same price on all stores.

RiME and the THQ Nordic games have stood out because of the physical retail prices. While RiME will now have a sensible download price but still cost more for the cart, I'm a bit surprised Sine Mora is listed as £24.99 on the eShop too. I'm hoping it's in error (as I said in the article, eShop listings aren't 100% confirmation).

Have asked THQ Nordic to confirm the date anyway.

@roadrunner343 Yeah, it's never easy whatever you do in terms of scoring scales etc. In any case, all reviews hopefully inform through the text too, and in the end everyone needs to make their own decisions anyway

@Racthet916 I agree some maybe make too much of a deal of it, though not everyone has all those gizmos.

From my perspective, I now always take my Switch on trips, but don't always take my laptop (I don't own a standalone tablet). I can watch Netflix on my phone, of course, but it would be nice to use the bigger screen on the Switch. It's just one of those 'nice to have' things on the go (at home I just use a TV smart app, personally).

I'm sure it's coming. The system is fairly popular right now, good buzz around it, so I suspect companies like Netflix and Amazon are working on it.

@Folkloner Ah, apologies, Bomberman R is on sale from 1st July to 8th July, so we need to wait a couple of days.

As for SPEED, I don't know what's going on with that, it's listed in the press release.
