Coming out of resurrection cave for a first time and looking at the horizon. Second one was realisation that Plato was only small fraction of the game.
@datamonkey My understanding, it is not possible to get your money back from Nintendo eshop purchases in Canada. I had good experience with MK8 DLC, (actually I'm hoping there would be one more at some point) but Zelda BofW DLC1/2 could have been better. I mean it's still OK but it does not match the game itself, not even new enemies were added.
When Nintendo announced new dungeons I expected network of interconnected underground catacombs spreading all the way underneath surface. In reality they just recycled already existing concept.
Really interested in this game on switch, reminded me of good old days with unreal tournament, don't think frame rate and resolution would bother me since I did not play original 2016 (nothing to compare to). Unfortunately I bought Mario odissy and cannot afford another $80 game for a time being. May be when it's on sale.
Upon buying switch i sold my wiiu and after a while playing breath of the wild and mario kart I miss Wii u games. I wish they released all wiiu games on switch, I don't mind re-buying my favorites.
I wish they added new track to mk8d. Likely Nintendo wants to make money on DLC. With current pricing on switch games I'll be very selective buying games.
Sometimes one has to cut losses and move forward. So we enjoined wii u while it lasted. What bothers me more is the fact there is no talks about wiiu mk8 Battle mode update. Also on switch mk8d no new racing levels really I don't play splatoon, not a fun of Zelda so no reason to buy switch till disent library builds up.
I think all so called vc games should be free to owners of NS regardless if they were purchased in the past. There got to be some motivation for people to buy that thing.
I still think switch is running on Linux/Android, if that the case all current Android library technically easily portable to switch. We should see plenty of games, quality might be questionable though. Regarding online gameplay, if it is too expencive to maintain servers, can't they release stand alone server so we can host multiplayer ourselves. Paying for playing MK8 online sounds bad. We only play once in a while now and I would not want to pay monthly or annual fee for occasional round on playing on line.
@3MonthBeef "Regardless of what people are saying now the ultimate result is even people with far out criticisms will buy the console. Maybe not at launch, maybe not even during the holidays but they WILL buy one. Now what is important is software releases, quailty software mind you." There are people buying WiiU now but it's not going to change its doom.
What Nintendo needs is an adaptor to be able to plug/play 3DS games into switch. Nintendo should have made a second slot for 3ds games. I guess either the nature of switch/Android vs. whatever 3ds is running on are incompatible or they didn't want to kill 3ds hardware so obviously.
Watching treehouse mk8d... Looks like ppl can't chose between tracks. Wonder why. Does Nintendo feel the water checking for reaction if they can get away selling us new racing tracks instead of offering as part of switch release.
The only game we really play on wii u is mariokart 8, if nintendo releases new levels for wiiu version as well I'll unlikely to pick up switchtill new mario Odyssey is out.
Locked content big no no, I have only one weekend free and I want to enjoy full game without waiting till next weekend. I hope they will add local multiplayer plus more content such as items, enemies and terains. Nice idea but I'm afraid the novelty will ware off soon. One more thing ability to create world map would have been amazing, even without uploading functionality for it. DLC where are you
Locked content big no no, I have only one weekend free and I want to enjoy full game without waiting till next weekend. I hope they will add local multiplayer plus more content such as items, enemies and terains. I'm starting to get tired of "original" stupid levels server is full of.
Picked up game yesterday. Spent few hours playing. Nice game but there is room for improvement. No map on main screen, also in local multiplayer It is anoin to have to wait for a human player in 12th spot to finish the race, heshe is last any way. To keep this game going Nintendo would have to release at least one FREE new track every month. Track ebitor would be the best.

I read that with purchase of MK8 within first release month you can download one of four games. I guess that would make it 65 / 2 = 32.50 per game. Not too bad.
What I find hard to understand is "box" games pricing on eshop. Nintendo saves money on packaging, transportation and yet the prices sometimes higher than retales. If MK8 does not sell well high price tag would be at least one of the reasons why.
I wish it was possible to log in using wiimote instead of game pad, my family prefers wiimotes over gamepad and it's annoying that we forced to use it . people should have option to buy wiiu without gamepad
@OliverAdam what's not to understand, ps4 and xbox1 are basicly sff PC. Any current PC game or Amy project for PC can be customized to ps4 and xbox1 with no effort. If Nintendo went with x86 architecture we would have see all those games (toned down) on Wii u as well.
If Nintendo does not plan to release additional levels as add-ons they should include level building editor. I had so much fun with community levels on Wii.

Honestly if I could get refund for eshop purchase I would considered getting my money back. At least my son loves it.

Re: Video: Let's Weigh Up the Good & Bad Things About the Nintendo Switch
Switch will be ok, even if it fails as home console it would gradually replace 3ds, so potentially switch sales figures would match 3ds.

Re: Feature: The Big Nintendo Switch Presentation Summary
@BiasedSonyFan you can't call mk8d and s2 new games no matter how they spin it.
Re: Gallery: New Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Screenshots Look Pretty Fresh
Watching treehouse mk8d...
Looks like ppl can't chose between tracks.
Wonder why. Does Nintendo feel the water checking for reaction if they can get away selling us new racing tracks instead of offering as part of switch release.
Re: Gallery: New Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Screenshots Look Pretty Fresh
While watching treehouse.
Battle mode seems to be over rated. I hope there will be new racing tracks, if not there absolutely no reason to upgrade
Re: Gallery: New Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Screenshots Look Pretty Fresh
I was hoping for at list 16 new tracks. So far it looks really bleak, don't know if Nintendo would be able to recover as they did with 3ds.

Re: Nintendo Switch Release Date And Retail Price Confirmed, Region Locking Is Out
Are we going to have to pay now to play mario kart on line? I don't have Xbox or ps4 so not sure how it works.
Re: Nintendo Switch Release Date And Retail Price Confirmed, Region Locking Is Out
400 can$ + 100 game +tax ~600$can. Good luck with that Nintendo. I smell 3ds all over again.
