@Franklin It doesn't show the opposite expansion pass according to the version of the game you have. I have Pokemon Sword and it also shows the Pokemon Sword expansion pass for me on the Discover page. The Pokemon Sword expansion pass is just the default one advertised on the Discover page.
@Old_Man_Nintendo Yes, unfortunately I agree that it's the most likely scenario in the future. But those of us who already own physical copies of games won't be affected either so I'm not sure what your point is...? Physical games can also provide the best peace of mind when it comes to a back-up, if the console storage were to be compromised in some way after the platforms servers eventually go down.
@Remolution I would definitely suggest RE4. RE5 has some great co-op (unfortunately the AI for your NPC partner in solo mode requires a LOT of babysitting) and RE6, while widely criticised, isn't too bad though it's certainly more of an action title than a survival horror.
But if you're only getting one then I would easily recommend RE4.
@mitkom1 This is probably the wrong place to be asking for a download link, considering the nature of this project. It shouldn't be too hard to find on your own though if you are desperate to have it.
I had a feeling it was going to be awful but still decided to download it and give it a try; I played through the tutorial and was thoroughly unimpressed (unsurprisingly) so I promptly deleted it right afterwards. I'll just stick with Skyrim I think...
10/10 But I did almost choose the wrong game for Tingle at first. Though I blame the picture for that, his disturbing visage distracted me for a brief moment ๐
@DrDaisy I understand what you're saying but this particular game is entirely based on the concept of online multiplayer team battles. It seems to be quite similar to Splatoon in that respect, which does feature a solo campaign but that is definitely not the main selling point. The online multiplayer battles are what both of these games are really all about.
The art style in this game is just plain awful, it could be going for only $1.99 on mobile devices and yet still manage to look like an utterly subpar effort.
@danielman9 The size of GameCube files itself might have something to do with it, the average size for GC games is 1.4GB (uncompressed) while NES/SNES games are tiny in comparison. So a GameCube service could potentially take up a lot more space on the Switch's limited internal memory. But I'm also still hoping we get them eventually...
I like the darker and more mature atmosphere this game has compared to others in the genre... And using real-time combat instead of turn based looks interesting. Definitely going to keep an eye on this one.
I would say there's a good chance that a bunch of collecters out there will be buying this box. So yes it does actually make sense for Nintendo to try selling these, it will cost them relatively nothing to produce for a chance to make a bit of profit from it.
@BANJO Yep it's a good business decision but a bit of a middle finger to the fans of the franchise, who would happily buy the physical versions if only they were available. I have 4 of the RE ports on my Switch but I would have bought more if I was able to buy physical copies of them all.
Epic Games: "Hmm we need more content for our future revenue. Instead of paying our employee's to create a new emote, we'll just ask the public to create one for us so that later we can sell it back to the masses!"
@Zeldafan79 The impression I get from Capcom is that they just see the Switch as a chance to make some extra money from their older titles, which have already been out on other platforms for years but have a new customer base when it comes to Nintendo hardware.
@Dakotastomp Yeah I agree, having a choice between first or third person view in Paladins was a good option. I've been looking for a good third person shooter on the eShop lately but haven't really found anything that has grabbed my attention.

Still on RE 2 Remake, plus For The King on Switch.

Re: Star Wars Episode l: Racer Gets New Switch, PS4 Release Date
Ah I used to love this game! I'll definitely be grabbing this ๐
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 13th)
I finally picked up RE2 Remake so I'll be playing that, and probably some Smoke and Sacrifice on Switch.
Re: Review: Adam's Venture: Origins - Uncharted For Switch? You've Got To Be Kidding
@Entrr_username Well the positive/negative points for reviews on here don't form the basis for the actual total score.
Re: Review: Adam's Venture: Origins - Uncharted For Switch? You've Got To Be Kidding
@Dodger Haha... There's some entertaining stuff there, thanks for the link.
Re: Review: Adam's Venture: Origins - Uncharted For Switch? You've Got To Be Kidding
Joys: The game can be deleted from your Switch.
Lol that was a great review, well done ๐

Re: The Mortal Kombat 11: Aftermath Kollection Doesn't Include A Switch Game Card
Just another exercise in futility.
Re: All Resident Evil Games Discounted On Nintendo Switch, Get Up To 60% Off
@nintendoknife lndeed, the two Revelations titles are quite brilliant. I've sunk a lot of hours into both of those games over the years.

Re: Amazon France Strikes Again With Another Mystery Nintendo Switch Game Listing
@Swiftstorm Agreed, it would be great to see a Sacred 2 release for the Switch.
Re: Reminder: Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Wedding Season Starts Today
@Anti-Matter Read the article again, the players can't get married themselves they can only assist an NPC marriage.
Edit: incomplete sentence.

10/10 But I did almost choose the wrong game for Tingle at first. Though I blame the picture for that, his disturbing visage distracted me for a brief moment ๐

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (April 25th)
Just started playing The Witcher 3 not long ago, so that and Sea Salt which is quite a fun little game.

Re: Ninjala Open Beta Is Now Available To Download On Switch For Free
@Anti-Matter Lol. It's a free to play game designed for online multiplayer, what you are asking for makes absolutely no sense.
Re: Random: LEGO Mario Set Gets Its First Angry User Review, Despite The Fact It Isn't Out Yet
Ugh, utterly ridiculous.
Re: You Can Now Access Your Nintendo Switch eShop Wish List Online
@BionicDodo Hmm that sounds alright I'll check it out, thanks.
Re: New Pokรฉmon Art Collaboration Offers Up Generous Helpings Of Nightmare Fuel
Intriguing. Definitely not nightmare material though.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (March 7th)
Switch - Don't Starve and Death Road to Canada
PS4 - Killing Floor 2
Re: Nintendo PlayStation Sells For Significantly Less Than Was Previously Offered
Can't believe they turned down the 1.2 million in the first place...
Re: Here Are Two Teaser Posters For The Upcoming Monster Hunter Movie
Such a shame, it might have been a good movie if only Anderson wasn't in charge of it.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (February 29th)
For me so far it has been Dragon's Dogma on Switch and Killing Floor 2 on PS4...
Re: Review: Kitty Powers' Matchmaker - A Refreshingly Inclusive Dating Sim That Grows Stale Too Quickly

Re: Samurai Jack Is Back In Battle Through Time, Releases On Switch This Summer
Ah nice, always enjoyed that series.
Re: Super Rare Games Announces Seven New Physical Releases For Nintendo Switch
Damn, already bought Darkwood from the eShop... Would have liked a physical version instead. Oh well.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (February 15th)
I'm playing through Xenoblade Chronicles X again right now, fantastic game. Would be great if it eventually got a Switch port.
Re: Ubisoft Hosts Huge Switch eShop Sale, Get Up To 82% Off Top Games
@KoopaTheQuick No, I hate the Rabbids too. I bought the game because of the gameplay but I can't stand looking at those annoying Rabbid characters...
Re: The Next Grand Prix For Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled Will Be The Last One
@Anti-Matter Nah, that's not going to happen.
Re: News On Nintendo Switch SNES Controller Stock Expected This Month (North America)
@danielman9 Yeah that would be the ideal solution but sadly I can't see that happening anytime soon either.

Re: Monster-Battling "Love Letter" Kindred Fates Reaches Its Switch Stretch Goal On Kickstarter
I like the darker and more mature atmosphere this game has compared to others in the genre... And using real-time combat instead of turn based looks interesting. Definitely going to keep an eye on this one.

Re: Random: The Guy Behind 'Thong Song' Has Backed The Wonderful 101 Kickstarter
Ugh. Please, no cameo from this fool.
Re: Heaven Dust Brings Resident Evil-Inspired Zombie Horror To Switch This Month
I seem to be in the minority here but this game seems interesting to me, will definitely be keeping an eye on it ๐
Re: Random: Nintendo's Selling Empty Boxes Of The Animal Crossing Edition Switch
I would say there's a good chance that a bunch of collecters out there will be buying this box. So yes it does actually make sense for Nintendo to try selling these, it will cost them relatively nothing to produce for a chance to make a bit of profit from it.
Re: Schedule A Trip To The Outer Worlds On Switch This March
Nooo! I was really looking forward to this game but I'm getting sick of these digital only versions sigh.

@Anti-Matter What about Doom Eternal? ๐
Re: Aussie Retailer Lists Standalone Physical Releases Of Resident Evil 5 And 6 On Switch
@BANJO Yep it's a good business decision but a bit of a middle finger to the fans of the franchise, who would happily buy the physical versions if only they were available. I have 4 of the RE ports on my Switch but I would have bought more if I was able to buy physical copies of them all.
Edit: 4 of the ports not 3.

Re: Aussie Retailer Lists Standalone Physical Releases Of Resident Evil 5 And 6 On Switch
@Zeldafan79 I suspect that even if Capcom did port RE7 to the Switch it would be another digital only version, given their history.
Re: Review: Hypercharge: Unboxed - Lighthearted FPS Action That Mixes Toy Story With Small Soldiers
