I'm really sick of Sony and Microsoft trying to buy every studio. The worst part is it's not even working for them. The studios end up shutting down and gamers take the hit in the long run.
My inner collector wants this. My responsible side says absolutely not. I really don't mean to belittle Annapurna or discredit these games but they are only indies that you can probably snag digitally on a sale all together for $50 or possibly less. If Stray were on here that would be pretty dope though. Sadly, these physical games that become limited for no real just become fodder for scalpers.
I mean, it's OK. However, since the launch of Super Mario Wonder it looks ridiculous at the $60 price point. To be fair, maybe it's because I'm not as into Sonic..
I almost definitely won't be picking this up on Switch unless the port actually does come out great but I'll check it out on Xbox for sure. I've interested in the game since it's been announced.
This is great news for the Evercade. I don't have one and don't plan on getting one but with something like Capcom titles maybe more people will consider looking into it. Don't forget though, all these games are already on the Switch. (And just about everywhere else; usually on the cheap)
Yep. I should be itching with excitement for this game but im unfortunately not. They haven't shown me a whole lot that separates Splatoon 2 from 3. And Splatoon (1) wasn't much different than 2.. which I didn't mind because I was just happy to see the franchise get noticed but hopefully Nintendo did something to separate this one from the others.
I should be itching for excitment for this game but unfortunately I'm really not. I love Splatoon 1&2. I didn't think Splatoon 2 was really all that different from Splatoon (1) and I was ok with that because I was just happy to finally see the franchise branch out to an entirely new audience. However, they haven't really shown much that separates Splatoon 2 from Splatoon 3. Hopefully they share way more details soon..? Because as it stands right now it's pretty the same as the last game.
I'm sure they didn't want to be the BEAR of bad news but it is what it is.. I'm looking forward to picking this up for my girlfriend when it releases. I'm just glad they care enough to hold off until its polished.
It is what it is. I guess taking the music from the prototype was just a quick solution. This is why people like to emulate or spend big money on the actual cart..
As a Nintendo fan I will say this.. these releases just prove how dumb some Nintendo fans and physical collectors are. This is soo much money and extra BS for an old game that's not great or significant. Just emulate it. Or why are we not asking, "Why isnt this coming to the online service instead? "
We don't need to see anymore. I'm just ready to play it. Definitely one of my most anticipated games of the year. Really, its been one of my most anticipated games since its been announced.
@NikHogan The funny thing about the 3DS is everyone was eventually so sick of it because yes, the handheld stuck around for pretty long time. The Switch had just released and people really just wanted to hear about what's coming to Switch not 3DS. Now that Nintendo has basically completely moved on from the 3DS people finally realized, 'man, this handheld and the game library is incredible.'
I love my 3DS. Its just as good, if not better for 'On the go' gaming than the Switch. (That might be a hot take but I'm sticking to it) I've never given up on it and I don't really plan to. Its going to really suck once these games start getting really expensive because it's one of the few platforms I still enjoyed buying for.
Only if I find it worth it. I certainly don't trust big AAA developers. As much as Nintendo gets hate I've never preordered a first party Nintendo game and totally regretted it. It may have just not been my jam at worse. Most of these other companies ship full price, broken games. Of course I've preordered a couple from other companies and regretted it but that was part of the learning experience.

@YANDMAN Yeah, we'll see. Either way I'm down to at least try it out.
Re: Hori Reveals The Split Pad Fit For Nintendo Switch
I'll import this if I have to. The split pad pro is probably the best accessory for Switch. This looks great.

@Anti-Matter If you like platformers it's absolutely an easy recommendation.
Re: Klonoa Phantasy Reverie Series Demo Is Now Available In Japan
This series must not sell well in North America.. which is unfortunate. We keep getting the shaft on this game.
