@SwitchVogel Thanks. I appreciate the response. That makes sense, if it takes only a couple of hours (or whatever) to get one of these old games set to publish.
Agree with all the above comments. All the recent rare/obscure 80s releases are bewildering. Guess I just don’t get their revenue model. I thought companies like money? Assuming all the classic popular 80s and 90s release we’re all craving would be too expensive licensing wise? Would love to see a comment, or even article, explaining this.
This obviously wasn’t a mistake on their part. They must have a couple execs who are obsessed with DRM. So weak that they tried to pass it off as an accident. People commenting about it on sites like this helped change their opinion.
@Kochambra Right, I get that reasoning. It’s “painful” for retro enthusiasts to see repeats when there’s so many gems not out in the system yet. Just wishing the arcade archives releases were more plentiful. Love retro games and love the Switch putting them out.

Re: You'll Need A Bethesda Account To Play DOOM And DOOM II On Switch
Was going to buy at least one of these, and now won’t be buying any. Does not need to be that complicated.

Really looking forward to playing this once it’s properly patched. And bring on the original SOTN and all its follow-ups!!

@SepticLemon
Exactly. Why would they be so redundant with the subscription service? Are they sadists?
