I'll reserve judgement til I see some gameplay. Til then, the idea of a remake has caught my attention. Whether it'll be good or not remains to be seen on said gameplay.
This is for 2 types of people. 1, the people who played the original and wanted a remake. And 2, the new generation of gamers who've never played the original. For the others, nintendo doesn't care about you.
My one gripe is lulu's special attack, where you have to rotate the drift-prone joycon in multiple 360 circles to get her magic attack up. I wouldn't wish that upon my joycon. If they could switch that up to something else, that'd be great.
I just hope the base game is available for cheaper than the tarnished edition. I'd rather pay $40-50 for the base game(which is big enough), before paying $80 for erdtree dlc, that i might not even get to.
In the states the switch 2 is bundling a game(mkw, dkb, pokopia) with the new $500 priced model. So not much is really changing considering my switch 2 with Mario kart world was $500. Don't know how long it'll last, but there it is for now.
I don't get it. "They" say some games have to be gkc and downloaded to the ssd because it's too big or for it to run better, or the bigger carts cost more(i guess). And yet this, cyberpunk 2077, hell even the witcher iii on original switch was all on a cart.
I never understood the vitriol for gkc on the switch 2, when ps5 and xbsx have the same issue(the disc just being keys to run the game from your ssd), and pc just doesn't have physical at all. Especially with so many games having day 1 patches, and regular updates, etc., it's not like the entire(playable) game is on the carts/discs.
I don't think families and children who planned to watch this are looking for positive reviews from critics. And I believe people know what they're getting into when they choose to watch a super Mario movie. It seems the critics went into it waiting for a thought provoking moment where people question their own lives and decisions, instead of enjoying a silly movie based on a video game.
We need a comparison for switch, switch 2 edition, and switch 2 boost(for switch 1 games). Because if boosting makes the game look and run better, why bother with the paid upgrade?
🤣🤣🤣the ign podcast "game scoop" has a segment called "seal of quantity." It shows all the "great" games to get passed nintendo's quality control.
Loved this game my first play through. Loved it even more when I added mods. Modern weapons, halo armor, gotg soundtrack on my pipboy, etc. Good times were had.
We will never see cheap components or consoles again. When they sell something at a high price, why would they lower it, regardless of how much it costs them? It's the "rocket and feather effect." Prices rocket up but float back down like a feather. Thats why most, if not all things, are more expensive. You can say inflation, but I say corporate greed.
Each and every dev should quit, form their own studio or devs union that required the likes of rockstar/ubi/etc to contract out the devs for a time(however long it takes to dev a game) at fair or higher pay. What options would they have? Either pay them or shutdown. Crises precipitate change.
Wow. Kudos on a great port. With cyberpunk, ac shadows, star wars outlaws, now this, even with the graphical "downgrades," switch 2 may have the better game(s). Mainly because of the portability factor.
Also, when I read comments, here and elsewhere, of how the "tech in the switch 2 is dated," then games from this generation appear on the switch 2, makes me wonder if the ps5/series x|s are dated as well.
I imagine the horsepower behind the series x|s allows game freak to produce more graphically intense and content rich games, especially compared to the switch(1).
I clicked on the "related games" and the "review," is there a way one could see a list of all the games available in this collection? Is there any redundancy with vol. 2?
These "contests" always seem a bit off. "Design a -something- for us and we'll use it in our game." You'll get nothing for your efforts other than an icon. While they get the monies. Give me .25 cents per copy sold or something. Better, $500 prize so at least you can pretend you sold it to them.
Im wondering if the rest of the games will come out on the switch 2. Playing intergrade on switch 2, then having to buy another console(whether a ps5 or switch 3) to continue the story doesn't sit well with me. Fingers crossed they do come out on the switch 2.
What you guys SHOULDN'T do is buy from scalpers on ebay, etc., then dispute the charges with your credit card company. Definitely shouldn't do that.😉
The switch 2 version trumps the series s version simply by being portable. To achieve that on xbox you would need a series s, game pass ultimate, and a device to stream games to.
