$20 is a brutal price for paid DLC just like a month after the main game came out. That's basically 30% the cost of the game itself.... and I bet it's nowhere near 30% of the content.
@LastFootnote Most of the categories have "Coming Soon!" written after them and don't link anywhere, this is clearly an initial setup, though I don't think it's exactly a bad idea to just wait till all/most of the information is actually ready to use. It definitely reeks of "Get to the top of the Google searches first".
I did the Network test over the weekend (switch 2) and this was probably one of the ugliest and most unpleasant games I've ever played 😄 I hated every second of it 😆
A single track for fifteen bucks is ridonkadonk. I love Hamster, I have a whole slew of AA and Neo-Geo games of theirs...but these extra high prices for these 'special' games (what makes them so much more special? who knows!) is going to keep me from buying any of them. There's not even an IP like Star Wars or something that needs to be upcharged for their needing to license it.
@Yalloo Correct, and each state has its own different sales tax percentage (usually around 7-9%). Accounting for added sales tax to the base price is standard shopping practices here.

Sylux is the worst character name ever.

@Polvasti I swear I read you can break the door mechanism or whatever it is so you don't have to pay anymore.
Re: Hollow Knight: Silksong's Upcoming Patch Will Nerf The Difficulty In Certain Areas
Just goes to show how little time they had to work on this. 😆

Re: Mini Review: Arcade Archives 2: Aqua Jet (Switch 2) - Classic Aquatic Racer Lags Behind Wave Race

@Pirate1 Perfectly as far as I've been able to tell, having played both on the Switch1 for awhile.
Re: 59 Switch Games You Should Pick Up In The 'Play Together' eShop Sale (North America)
How. How is ARMS still so expensive. It's been almost a decade, I'm not paying over 40 bucks for it.
Re: Fast & Furious: Arcade Port Cruises Onto Switch This October
Hope there's a stage that gets you briefly in orbit for a little bit xD

These 3d Hamster prices are honestly ridiculous. 🤨

I was already bored watching 15 seconds of that video 😆
Re: Review: Heretic + Hexen (Switch) - Two FPS Cult Classics Masterfully Revamped
@ChessboardMan Fair point, honestly forgot switch 1 could do that! 😄
Re: Review: Heretic + Hexen (Switch) - Two FPS Cult Classics Masterfully Revamped

Re: Nintendo Reconfirms Release Windows For Major Upcoming Switch 2 Games
Yeah, this is pretty paltry and weak, and as someone else said, uh, what's 2026 looking like for S2 first party?
