But surely, if company's aren't making as many physical games, we can't buy as many? Also, digital releases always come out way before physical one's. I on many occasions have bought the digital version first as I don't wish to wait. This means that digital sales are in essence being incorrectly inflated, and I know many others do the same as me.
As we watch the modern landscape of systems slide into the sea, the Neo Geo AES + is poised to rise from it and once again become the greatest console on the planet.
@MintFox The key card is a shame, but it's such a good game. I haven't been this captivated for a really long time. Likewise couldn't finds it in any of my local stores.
I bought one and it was almost half the price of the console itself. Absolutely mental, but essentially redundant without it. Even a 1tb isn't really adequate. You'll still be deleting often. A 2tb is what's really needed and those cost more than the console
@-wc- It's tiring that companies like SEGA feel like if they don't change or add to a games basic DNA, then it isn't a 'NEW' game. They've created more classic games and franchises than most could ever dream of. They aren't broken, just continue the tried, tested and loved formula.
Maybe make a Shinobi game like a Shinobi game, instead of a bloated Metroidvania/action hybrid with tiny tiny characters. I'm a huge huge fan of the franchise but lost interest in a week. it's too big, too long and not interesting enough to support it.
I like it, prefer it to Mario kart, but it needs more speed as is the general rule for all Kart racers. It's certainly faster than MK, but stil lneeds more.
Whilst this is fantastic news and a great boost for the platform, has anyone considered that it will be a key-card and almost likely the largest game file to date?
@mlt I dislike 'rogue' but am loving it. It just feels like a really good. classic, action platformer. The rogue basically comes by the option of upgrades at the end of each level.
I know there was a lot riding on this release, and also a lot of negativity after the demo released. Really great to see it get such excellent reviews. Hopefully there's a physical that doesn't involve LR.
I'm really enjoying playing Ninja Gaiden 2 again. This series has much potential, but if it's like the arcade side, it will be a lot of lacklustre. I mean what is the point of releasing a non translated Japanese game? Price point is also questionable.
For the love of god, release an arcade collection, with a beautiful front-end like Capcom's. It would print money. Give us an arcade collection. Virtua Fighter 1 and 2 HD. Or even VF 5, but only the entire game is flat polygon style. An arcade racer collection. They are sat on one of the biggest collections of amazing I.P's and do absolutely zero with it.
@AlonditeFE I don' think that is the intention at all. It's something that is happening to all console and manufacture and equally something that we knew was coming, just not when. This is simply saying...and now we know.
I see this hopefully as a spring board, a gauge of interest, with a view to further releases of new instalments. People need to realise that lot's of Nintendo fans as we once were, are children. Those children weren't alive to play the original games.
I tried the demo but found the hacking to be tedious and often not work at all. I actually couldn't proceed at one point as no matter how I tried it, it simply wouldn't accept it to be correct, at this point all other hacks were no issue.
@Johnny_Arthur Have you played the Mega Drive version? it's much better. I grew up wit the SNES one, but later found the MD port. Try it if you are able.

Re: Sony Ditches Physical Media - Suddenly Game-Key Cards Don't Look So Bad
Key-Cards are still awful. This doesn't change that at all.
Re: Bethesda Shows Off Oblivion Remastered Switch 2 Physical Release
@Furealz I guess so many people already own them, is it worth the cost of a cart run, to possibly not sell them?
Re: Bethesda Shows Off Oblivion Remastered Switch 2 Physical Release
I mean it looks great anyways, but given it's a full release it will absolutely buy it. We must vote with our feet.

Re: "This Is Even Worse" - GTA 6 Code-In-A-Box Reveal Reignites Game-Key Card Debate
buuuuut. it does actually have a physical disc in the actual physical release. The code in box is simply the first wave of pre-order releases.
Re: Tekken Is Coming To Switch 2, But Not The One You Think
This is a great move. I know everyone loves three, but two is my favourite, bring it on.

Re: Shinobi: Art Of Vengeance Is Getting A Switch 2 Release This September
Another dumb key-card for a tiny game, with a load of junk bundled in with it.

@Jeronan I'm fully aware of the reason.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Adventures Of Elliot: The Millenium Tales
The demo for me was amazing. This is the most engaged I've been in a long time. I need to finish FF7 first, maybe, then I'll buy it.

Re: Acclaim Brings "Nostalgic Roguelike Action-Platformer" Kidbash To Consoles In 2027
