Nintendo Switch: Thread 06

[Nu-Eclipse]

Hyrule Warriors is £44.99.

Seriously, **** off Nintendo... And I wanted to buy it. I was honestly expecting £24.99. I really think that's more than it was when new on the WiiU! They're charging more for the port than the original.

How can you possibly be surprised and/or shocked by this?

Yeah sadly it was 100% always gonna be that price.

Just go grab yourself a copy of Dynasty Warriors 2 instead. Estimated CEX price: 50p. Basically the same game. Without any Zelda stuff. And set for some reason in Silent Hill. Or possibly Stephen King's The Mist.

UK getting ripped off.

Its under 30 in Singapore.

[kryss]

It's $80+tax here, so about the same as the UK.
I'm laughing at MHGU being priced the same. The Japanese version was 2/3 that price on release last year. The success of MHW is making Capcom act all silly.

I’ll quote this next time you roll out your old “WTF Nintendo?” schtick with lashings of faux outrage for the umpteenth time then

I'm seeing online that the Switch version comes with a bunch of extra features, even more than MK8, but I haven't yet seen what those are. They're going to have to be pretty amazing though.

You have to admit that [MENTION=5941]Asura[/MENTION] is right though. I can understand Nintendo recycling all their Wuu games on the Switch in order to get a higher return on investment... but there’s no need for them to take the piss. Constantly.

£20 a pop for remakes end of. Nintendo’s 1st & 2nd party games did just fine sales wise on wiiU. Full price is an absolute p**s take.

Also, that seal of quality is made of real fake gold so costs a few pennies.

This.

Full price for Hyrule Warriors - a game that has been released for the third time in four years.

Rubbish but like I said before, given that this is Nintendo, it's totally unsurprising.

We all know this. I bet the vast majority of new Switch owners have no idea these are rereleases.

[teddymeow]

Dunno if anybody else has seen this.

Spend £100 or more in Smyth's on Nintendo stuff and get £20 off.

I was tempted by Wheels of Aurelia, but it looks like there's lots of unnecessary swearing.

Stop buying games!
...Until Don't Starve is reduced.

I bought Zero Gunner 2 (because I love it) and Stardew Valley (because you love it).
That'll do for now, Switch-wise.
