The cards were suppose to be restock on march 26th, here in france there was 0 restock, waited but nothing so I ordered on aliexpress. I don't understand nintendo locking thing with amiibo cards that they don't sell anymore, and if you say restock do it for enough of people. So rip off cards is the only way to get the furniture, it's unacceptable !
@Mr-Fuggles777 the 3ds is region locked so you need a modified japanese 3ds to apply the patch and the android version isn't available to purchased outside of japan so no you can't play the games even with the fan translation legally. I've been waiting for this games to be released outside of japan for years, It's a great news of it's true
On switch I'm playing spiritfarer, Hadès, and my son like ro watch me play captain toad. And i'm playing cyberpunk on stadia.
And may be age of calamity if I got enough time
@TheFrenchiestFry I'll be ok with a cloud version of cyberpunk because if the version go down I'm sure CDprojekt will compensate it with another feee version.
@sirmrguitardude exactly and the switch has much newer gyro and accelorometer than the wii, the wiimotion plus tech was released in 2009, the tech is better now.
@TheFullAndy the wii version use the gyroscope of the wii motion plus didn't use the pointer. The switch has everything needed for the motion control of this game.
I don't have a good experience with their store, i ordered snes posters but they send me an e-mail saying they made a mistake and send me the splatoon's one so they send the right one this time. Never received anything, send them email, contacted the postals services and I received an e-mail saying they'll refund me the shipping cost because the posters were send back. When I said that I didn't wanted the refund but that they send me my posters they said they couldn't but I could just reordered, but the offer was gone and my 400 platinum points too.
@link3710 but the switch is also an handheld console.
nintendo's handheld console history: gameboy: 1989 - 9 years (virtual boy: 1995 - 1 year) gameboy color: 1998- 3 years gameboy advance: 2001 - 3 years DS: 2004 - 7 years 3DS: 2011 - 6 years switch: 2017 - 3 years switch lite 2019 - almost 1 year when you look at the successfull handheld consoles, nintendo could wait a long time if it's still selling before releasing a new console. I put the switch lite because it's the last true handheld they released and it could show that nintendo isn't planning a switch 2 soon, only nintendo knows
I just finished the story of deadly premonition 2 and I loved it I still got some sidequest to do, I'm also playing origami king and I'm back in mario odyssey trying to found the last moons.
The game performance is bad but it's not unplayable. I love the game, and like the first one it's not for everyone. I can't put it down and I don't really see the performance issues anymore it's not that bad when your playing it but I'm glad they are working on a patches.
Update: swery did a one hour livestream of deadly premonition 2 https://youtu.be/xkOA9ckPfSE
At 52:35 swery talks about the framerate and says that there won't be a patch at release but he will fight with the producer to get something done.
We recommend researching any additional costs or fees involved with shipping items abroad. Take these into account when planning the cost of each reward and shipping it.
-Have you charged your backers the correct amount for shipping?
Will the backer be responsible for covering customs fees associated with shipping their reward abroad? If so, make this clear in the reward description and in your project description."
They should had said it in the description and on the reward page. I didn't get any customs fee here in france but they clearly miscommunicated. And if I'd knew that the game was send from the US I wouldn't had backed the project. I was lucky to not get extra fees but that doesn't change the facts.
I backed the game when the kickstarter went live, I already owned the game on wiiu, it's one of my most played game on it. The switch port is great on handheld mode, didn't played it on tv mode yet because I like to be able to draw the signs with the joystick and touch screen. Played the steam version and it's good too but I've waited for my switch copy because it's a game you play multiple times to unlock everything. Even with all the problem with kickstarter I'll recommend the game.
The problem with the kickstarter is that it was said the games will be send from the us, here's was kickstarter says : Will the backer be responsible for covering customs fees associated with shipping their reward abroad? If so, make this clear in the reward description and in your project description. They didn't said it neither in the reward description nor in the project description. I backed the project on february 3rd, they update the faq on february 12th to say that the game will be send from the us and didn't tell the backers. I discovered the game was send from the us when they send my tracking number. I backed a lot of project and never had any customs fee, don't know if I'll get one ( I'm in france) but platinum should had said it clearly that the game will be send from the us for everyone. I got shenmue 3 and bloodstained physical copy and they send it for EU to EU. And since the end of the funding platinum didn't put a lot of updates, I found more info on the kickstarter on twitter, kickstarter is also a place to give inside informations on the making of the game, but they used it only as a preorder.
@Severian may be it was because of Nintendo seal of quality and 3d doesn't help with bugs but for the translation I 've got nothing except may be they didn't want to paid too much for it.
@zool you're missing a really great game, played it on wiiu and it's one of my favorite wiiu game, and one of my most played game. You should try before you juged 👍
Does everyone time travel ? My museum isn't available today because it's been upgraded. that's what bothering me, I never time travel in any animal crossing and I don't understand the appeal. It's a game about taking your time. And because of time travel now the nook bank's interest rate is really bad and cloud saves isn't allowed. What would nintendo do next because of time Travel ? New leaf on art that's what !
I think I won't buy animal crossing the save situation is getting worst everyday, I only got one profile on my switch but if I start this game and decide to buy a new model or a special edition I'll lose my hours of animal crossing. Nintendo make really stupid decisions.
I had a choice do I reinstal fire emblem heroes and pay 12€ a month for stupid orbs or play 3 houses for 0€ a month... So I bought the 3 houses season pass for 18€ because I got some credit on my paypal account from google survey.
I really hate nintendo on mobile they made all the bad decision, didn't even tried mario kart tour. I hope they'll never try the same on console, switch online is 20€ a years, apple arcade is 5€ a month for a lot of games. Gamepass is 12.99€ a month. Mobile gaming is really horrible but the worse part is that people subscribe...
@AlexSora89 they lost in 2018 and appeal the ruling but they lost even more with the appeal they did it themself they should had payed the 92000$. And they didn't removed the mario characters immediatly after losing the first time.
@Kalmaro the gasha in xenoblade 2 is the worst part of the game, I really hate it, I never had all the rare blade because of that horrible mechanic but I finished the game and wanted to finish all the sidequest but the gasha was so bad I couldn't finish.
@Zyph I think that's why he said this is just RnD, not a product. the sliding part I think is too similar of the switch: one of the us patent of the switch https://patents.google.com/patent/US9724601B2/en
I think if they wanna sell it they need to change a lot because it's too close to the switch and I think the problem will be the price, the switch is selling because it's price isn't too expensive.
I need to finish three houses and dqxi but right now I'm playing witcher 3 and ringfit. I think I'm not buying anything for a few months with this backlog.

Re: Suikoden Successor Eiyuden Chronicle Could Be Our First Confirmed Switch 2 Game
@link3710 but the switch is also an handheld console.
nintendo's handheld console history:
gameboy: 1989 - 9 years
(virtual boy: 1995 - 1 year)
gameboy color: 1998- 3 years
gameboy advance: 2001 - 3 years

3DS: 2011 - 6 years
switch: 2017 - 3 years
switch lite 2019 - almost 1 year
when you look at the successfull handheld consoles, nintendo could wait a long time if it's still selling before releasing a new console. I
put the switch lite because it's the last true handheld they released and it could show that nintendo isn't planning a switch 2 soon, only nintendo knows
