Nintendo Switch: Thread 08

[Cepp]

Grabbing MOON since it just came out. It's one of those left in Japan PS1 games that's finally got an English language release on Switch.



They may have put the price a bit too high at £15 considering how long it is, but then perhaps going lower wouldn't have made a difference to the total sales considering how niche it is.

Total ballache to buy funds for the japanese eshop on switch though they make everything region free then do their damndest to block out foriegn credit cards and paypal accounts.

Just get a point card from Play Asia, it's delivered instantly without headaches.

PS5 & SeriesX will be out before they can even be bothered to port a wiiu game. Absolutely outrageous output from their studios.

I just want confirmation it's real, have enough to play to fill any delays.

[Golgo]

Yeah, it's lame all right. So that's one new first party game for 2020? (Animal Crossing). Did I miss anything?

[Neon Ignition]

Just Animal Crossing and Paper Mario: The Origami King though I'd be tempted not to give them the nod for Animal Crossing as it was a delayed 2019 game meaning we're knee deep in Nintendo Complacency Mode by the looks of things.

[Golgo]

Hmmm...at least there's Pikmin 3 Deluxe remaster to look forward to...

Remember that the rumoured delays on the rumoured games are only rumours.

If nothing else, the global fume will be p1ss-yourself hilarious when the reveal actually turns out to be Super Mario All-Stars ROM Dump for Switch with an RRP of £59.99!

I called this a while ago. Can see it being true as well.

Really? We must have missed that...

I'm actually thinking a whole new Switch may very well be just around the corner after all. Especially if it's going to play host to cost-efficient mobile Ampere tech. What are their Shields currently gearing towards? That's probably the best indicator.

That might explain why the games have been a little thin, lately.

Said it as a joke a while ago, however its such a predictably Nintendo move it could well be true.

They didn't want to put All-Stars on the Wii Shop as it would detract from the existing NES titles which people were already gladly paying a fiver a pop for. That's why it got pressed to disc instead.

I don't remember it costing £60, though. It was something like $30 SGD (£15) at my indie which seems totally fair if you wanted the box and disc. I never even bothered with the SNES game due to owning the NES originals.

All those games are now on their online plan, and probably seen as attractors to that service. I highly doubt they will retail them out again any time soon, even as part of an anniversary.
