@Kraven nobody saying it is a bad game the expectations were so much more is it to much to ask for mid to high 80s for a first party game that took many years to make eurogamer gave it a 60 score and eurogamer to me has always been nintendo friendly in their reviews..
@GetontheStiix we shall see what sales numbers are when the price is lowered their will be a increase..the ps4 dominated japan until the switch came out and still only sold 2 million more consoles then the ps5 in a much longer time period..
@Jeff2sayshi the price drop will certainly increase ps5 sales in japan..ps5 has sold almost 6 million consoles in japan ps4 sold 2 million more over a much longer stretch of time..people do want it but not at was the current price remember switch 2 price is being subsidized in japan selling for $330 us dollars..
@Spider-Kev and many of us grew up with bulky colors tv and wont go back to them ever just because we grew up with slower frame rates does not mean they are acceptable for a fighting game.
i have to clarify my remarks obvious dragon quest 1&2 for switch 2 are not physical versions so they do not count while dragon quest 3 hd-2d came out for switch 1 so they are physical versions.interesting a third of consumers bought the key card version that could be the reason numbers were down i wonder how many bought the digital non key card for switch 2.
@WiltonRoots dragon quest 1&2 hd-2d remake sold less then dragon quest 3 hd-2d remake by 400 thousand physical copies in it's first week in japan you may not like hearing the facts..
dragon quest 3 hd-2d sole 640 thousand it's first week in japan on the switch and 180 thousand on the ps5 for a total over 800 thousand so these numbers for dragon quest 2 hd-2d are much less then i expected..
young people are the future of video gaming so many did not even get to play these old games that is why remakes or remasters are so popular these days... i played both as i am not young and i would love to play any remakes or remasters of these classic games..
@RiasGremory i partly blame nintendo for the key card problem since nintendo only offers 2 size carts 1 gig and 64 gigs and the 64 gig cart is expensive if they all used the 64 gig cart all games would be 70 bucks do we want that?
the score of 8 was generous for the switch 2 version i have seen videos of a few people who have played the switch 2 version say the performance is terrible..
@Lizuka considering there was about 105 million switch 1 consoles sold by the time arceus was released in jan 2022 compared to the number combined of switch 1 and switch 2 as of today arceus sales numbers are much more impressive then legends z-a.
violet and scarlet combined sold 10 million in it's first week on switch 1.violet accounted for 52% of those sales scarlet 42% and the rest was a doublepack...
@ShadLink usually metacritic scores on right on target when a game is great it will get a high score if it is bad it will get a low score if it is in the middle it will get a middle score..a great game has to be past 85 on metacritic..
@Friendly when elden first came out on the the more powerful ps5 it had issues the fact it is being delayed on switch 2 tells you all you need to know..most third party switch 2 games have compromises to run well like 30 fps and reduced objects on screen..
