The controls in sunshine are horrendous! They need to do a full update on the controls. It clearly shows, they don't give a shoot about sunshine. Loved this game, the controls were always a bit wonky but on the switch, terrible. Fix it Nintendo.
I got it, arrived in the post today, which is great! I'll play each of them for a bit, see what they are like and then, up on the shelf. I use Dolphin on my PC. I'm pretty sure sunshine and galaxy look a billion times better on that.
But I'm glad to have the collection, in my collection 😁
'@XO-Frats Pretty much, yes. This has been their plan all along. People see "limited" and go crazy. Not knowing they have 6 months to buy the game.'
This. This is what I dont understand. 6 months is a very long time to sell and reprint. Anyone who really wants it will have it by march (aka us, the big fans). It'll be on the eshop forever aswell.
And. I'm sure they will do another run in a year or something. Its really just a fast way to make lots of money to please the share holders in April 2021.
As for the ebay resellers. They have them up on ebay now, and they will stay there until people in the future want a copy, that will drive the price up in a year or two. but not these crazy prices.
Personally, I cant bloody wait to get my hands on it, lol. I have ordered one copy for this and one of the Game & Watch. But now I'm thinking, maybe I will order a second copy of each and keep them sealed and in a bag in my attic and forget about them for a few years.
Just got myself a MS2 at the weekend and a ton of games. Hooked it up via the rf in the back of my crt, and have to say, the picture is excellent! So happy with it.
Never had a MS. My friend back in the 80s had one and I remember playing his a lot back then. So much 8bit fun ahead. And the games are kinda cheap still, even with a pandemic going on lol.
I watched it last night, it was a fun and a silly watch and had all the info only gamers would know (the tiny details) in easy to understand stories. The guy who worked in the help line for Nintendo in the 80's, He needs a career in acting or tv or something, he was great, that mullet lol.
I Thought it was a great Indie Direct! So many great games shown.
Puts my mind at ease that there are some great games coming and some awesome 'Later Today' games.
Raji looks very interesting and SpiritFarer looks, right up my street. But I can only choose one at those prices. I might take a look at the weekend and get the other one on sale in the future.
When the Wii U was out about 2 years, amazon uk had a listing for Earthbound.... never happened. Anybody remember that? I remember finding that on Amazon, mentioning it here at the time, and no one seemed to care, which was odd. Obviously, it meant nothing, there was no new Earthbound on the Wiiu, but Amazon did list it. Just sayin'.
I REALLY want a new remake of SS, loved that game on the Wii, but it looks like ass. I'm sure they can work something out without the motion controls.
If its on sale now, does that mean it will be released for PC soon?
@Roibeard64 looks like they have added in the euro price.
That drives me mad on this site. I know they are a UK based site, but providing $ but not € in articles is just, odd to me. Maybe that will change now.
I Play easy most of the time. I just dont have the time to play on normal or hard at the end of the day (except these past few months).
Nothing wrong with that, why should other people care how I play a game, on my own, in my own home, that I have paid for, that the Devs provides an option to play their game.
@kingbk I've gathered that! Everytime I'm on YouTube since last Friday, there are vids on 'outrage' or whatever with a picture of Abby's face.... Eh, I just got to that part, nothing amazing or shocking. Don't get the problem. Only thing, besides the OST not being too catching is, and it's not a bad thing, but, it's a bit too long. But I'm getting my moneys worth.
I'll keep ignoring opinions on the game until I'm finished and make my own opinion about it. Been waiting for the game for 4 years to play, so I'm not gonna let anything ruin it for me now. Lasted this long lol.
Like, its neat, and kinda cool looking, seems like its €50 for one(?). so around €200 for all four. I'll pick one up for fun, maybe the red.
But. Its not the 4th in Japan just yet. Leave it for another 10 hours from now.
Like, think about it, a Pi 4 costs around €80 all in. Sega COULD make a 'Dreamcast Mini' for a little bit more. Not impossible. I doubt it though.
I'd love a full 'Sega Launcher' with everything from Master System to their games now for PC, XBSX, PS5 and Possibly a verson for Switch. We have emulation but I'd buy the Saturn games in a heart beat if they could make it super easy.
I think I have now, 14 8bitdo controllers including the n64 Retro-bit collaboration. I have too many now. Might offload some of them that I don't use. Incredible controllers though. Love the M30 for Saturn games.
Make a new GameCube controller. I have the new pro+, but, it just doesn't feel right for GameCube. And the Gbros adapter is, hmm, wired and heavy. I keep going back to the wavebird.

Re: 8BitDo Reveals Its New Customisable Arcade Stick For Nintendo Switch, Pre-Orders Now Live

But, I have the NES Stick and the Famicom Stick so I think I'm all good for bluetooth arcade sticks for now.

Re: It's Official, LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Has Been Delayed Until Spring 2021

Re: Netflix's Gaming Documentary High Score Is A Nostalgia Trip Worth A Watch
I watched it last night, it was a fun and a silly watch and had all the info only gamers would know (the tiny details) in easy to understand stories.
The guy who worked in the help line for Nintendo in the 80's,
He needs a career in acting or tv or something, he was great, that mullet lol.
HIGHLY recommend! With a glass of wine.
Re: Poll: What Did You Think Of The August 2020 Nintendo Indie World Showcase?
I Thought it was a great Indie Direct!
So many great games shown.
Puts my mind at ease that there are some great games coming and some awesome 'Later Today' games.
Raji looks very interesting and SpiritFarer looks, right up my street. But I can only choose one at those prices. I might take a look at the weekend and get the other one on sale in the future.
Still, i would like a big Direct from Ninty soon.

Re: Pikmin 3 Deluxe: 19 Glorious Screenshots, Box Art, File Size And More Details
I absolutely adored Pikmin 3 on WiiU, I'm definitely picking this up!!!
I hope it sells well on the switch, so we can get new Pikmin games and ports of 1 & 2 at some stage too.
Re: Soapbox: 25 Years On, I Still Can't Get Into Yoshi's Island

Re: Nintendo Direct Mini: Partner Showcase Airs Later Today
I have a feeling this mini will air and then well get a big Direct announced for this coming Wednesday.
If I remember right, Xbox showcase is this Thursday too? So, dont want to have it on the same day.
Re: You Can Now Pre-Order The Amazing SEGA Astro City Mini

I pre-ordered the actual console when it was announced, price seems to have gone up a tiny bit...
I like that controller. Hopefully we can order it outside japan soon.
Keep us updated on this please!
Re: Nintendo Says Directs Are 'Incredibly Effective', But They Might Not Be Around Forever
@Bolt_Strike the pandemic is very much still going on all over the world, and will be for the foreseeable future.
That's a major problem for all devs and companies everywhere.
It's gonna take longer than 3 months for it to fix this.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 27th)
Nearly finished LoU2, love it! Have kept away from all spoilers and opinions up to now.
Really enjoying it.
Only thing, the OST isn't as impactful at the first one.
Re: Treat Your Ears To 'Hero Of Time', An Hour-Long Arrangement Album Based On Zelda: Ocarina Of Time

Re: Bandai Namco Announces The Namcot Collection For Nintendo Switch
Isn't this the best way to do VC. I hope the next Nintendo is backwards compatible so we can play them for longer too like the DS.
Pity there is a lot of gems from the 80s and 90s that won't see the light of day ever, officially, but I'm happy with these releases 😊

I have my NES and SNES mini for those games.
Re: Birdo Joins Mario Kart Tour's Holiday Event As A Playable Character
How about some new DLC to buy for mk8 deluxe?
I can't see MK9 coming until the next Nintendo system which is at least 4 years away.
Why haven't they done this?
I jumped on the dlc for wiiu back in the day, I'd do the same on the switch.

Such a great underrated system. Would love a Saturn Mini.
