Nintendo Switch (Currently Plagued) - Here we shit post about the new Nintendo console, The Switch

1000001208.pngHAHAHAHAHAHA
THE COPE NEVER FUCKING ENDS
 
This shit makes me miss the Console Wars era. At least there was discussion and fun. Nowadays gamers just watch their YouTubers discuss and have fun while they... generate ad revenue?

Gamers don't play games anymore so they must generate ad revenue or something.

Why they don’t just bring back the Virtual Console alongside Switch Online I’ll never know.
Nintendo can spend 15 minutes remaking a game, charge full AAA price, and sell 100 times what they would on a VC release. So I'm sure they'd hate to eat into that.

Same. The GBA line-up in general is IMO the weakest of the Switch Online stuff with the O.G. GameBoy being second.
It's a bunch of scrunched ports plus Golden Sun, what else was it going to be? F-Zero MV is supposed to be coming, now new generations can experience its whateverness just as they did Metroid Fusion and Minish Cap.

No, I’m saying why don’t they take at least the games that were already going to be on their subscription service and also sell them standalone?
I assume they did the math and figured the games were worth more as a hook to get people get on a subscription and stay there. It's less complicated. It gives the vibe that a subscription is your default go-to option, not the premium choice for people who want everything. Freeloaders don't get to buy the game one time and play it for 20 years on their Switch 4. I dunno, I can see the Nintendo-logic of it. There's probably not a rabid audience of people who want to play Doomsday Warrior on Switch but won't get a subscription. I can barely picture them bothering to sell a lot of the stuff that ended up on the old VC, and having to support it, like the Commodore 64 games.

I just wished that they have a perpetual licensing thing, where VC games you purchased will be available on all future consoles. They almost did that with the titles being discounted on Wii U if you purchased them on the Wii. Kinda like the Pokemon Bank?
 
Leakers are faggots who need to be killed and have their heads put on display outside game company headquarters.
lol calm down

Yeah, I guess. I wouldn't think the math adds up that way, but the people running the business probably know better than I do.
Because then why would you subscribe?
To play online? Or to get games through a subscription instead of buying them? That's like asking why Microsoft still sells games when they could make them Game Pass-exclusive.

They only sell some of the games on their owm…mostly newer ones that they can charge more for without issue.. Just like Nintendo.
And they only make certain games available on the pass, just like Nintendo.

Nintendo is just following the model everyone made clear they’d accept.

The only Game Pass exclusives are some old yearly sports games and a few base games where the purchase-able version comes with DLC.

Nintendo puts all downloadable “virtual console” games on Switch Online and none of them standalone. Unless you want to count Arcade Archives, but that’s its own thing.
 
Great, so it will be the same shit I wouldn't have cared about this week plus Hi-Fi Rush, which I also don't really care about.
 
I'd just rather them remake DK '94 instead, it's a far, far better game. Or just make a wholly new follow-up to MvDK. A remake of this kind of game is an odd choice, but it's fine I guess.
Yeah, I agree. I replayed DK '94 on a GBC recently for the first time in what's got to be 20 or 25 years and it holds up great. I remember not liking Mario vs. Donkey Kong when it came out, and I played the free demo for the Switch version, and tbh I find it mind boggling anyone would review it and give it anything above a 6/10. It's hard to put your finger on any one particular thing, but it just feels very soulless and rigid. It's like a lot of those Yoshi's Island sequels like Yoshi's New Island where there's nothing really wrong with them, but it feels like they're just kind of there to pad out the library.

Pyoro correctly called both GBA Golden Sun games hitting NSO on the correct day, so I'm inclined to believe his sources here. Wouldn't get your hopes up for any huge surprises though, in another tweet he says he's "not excited".
>Penny's Big Breakaway release date
AUGH YEAH
Legit one of my most hyped games of the year
