honestly I didn't even know anything about this company. I'm picking up the deluxe version since it brings the guide book with all the games and the a download code for the soundtrack. I do collect some of the game sound tracks on vinyl so I'll look out for this one if the game soundtracks are any good.
I was worried about this game being a key card game but the game is for the Switch .
I played the Wii U version and loved it. I don’t have the same amount of time as I did back then so I probably won’t do too much customization this go around. Also playing it on the go is a plus as well. It was kool to use the Wii U game pad to see the map and place the probes amongst other things but the switch version is well done in that regard.
@Ryu_Niiyama yeah I agree that is how I play to this day. Which is why I tend to play few games throughout the year. I’ve only really played xenoblade and Zelda so far. I’m still on Zelda but I’m looking forward to Mario wonder.
@DTFaux correct. I’m hoping the dev shops stick to their guns and change course because if they do not what Unity has started could be become the norm moving forward.
A similar situation happen with Oracle after Oracle tried to monopolize the Java programming language. Of course companies like Google were not happy and decided to move on from using Java for some of the major projects like Android. Not to mention the huge legal battle that occurred afterwards.
@Coalescence Yes I remember a petition was needed to even convinced Nintendo to make a western release of it. I think the petition was called operation rainfall.
@jojobar I agree but TBH trying to get all that music on vinyl would be really expensive. There would have to be more selective on which tracks make it to vinyl.
Based on the comments I think Ubisoft’s pricing strategy needs a refactor. 😂 I got the first and loved it but haven’t really had the urge to get the second.
Im a regular family subscriber mainly for my wife’s cloud save for animal crossing. We do play Mario kart online occasionally. But if the expansion service adds some GB and GBA games, I would pay the extra premium.
I preordered mine at Target before I got the email from Nintendo. So I might get the CE contents if it’s not too much of a hassle, otherwise I’ll pass.
Yup watching the video brings back memories. I spent a lot of quarters at the arcade for arcade games and played the nes and game boy games. I’m looking forward to playing this collection.
It would be nice if Nintendo gave first dibs to online subscribers or those members with a lot of points as a reward. I really want the SE but I doubt I’m going to get a copy.
@Ryu_Niiyama yeah localization is hard. Each culture has their own way of expression within the same language so there is never one size fits all approach. Having said that I’m lucky not to really notice those differences too much.
