>5-10 paid shill Steam sale threads on the board at any given time>not a single eShop sale thread despite a majority of /v/ being Nintendo users firstNah, fuck that. Post carts, recommendations, wishlists
I'm still trying to decide what to boughtedificatinizedinged, probably gonna get Blood and at least one other game that isn't too expensive.
>>729295861everyone knows what to buy on switch. there's no real need for recommendations.
>>729296020
>>729296063What? I just said that I'm trying to decide which game to buyedizinged.
Features I want from the eShop:1. Cart system 2. Gifting games to friends
Not sure if I want to buy last remnant remastered or not. It's only $8, but I only have 29 gbs of space left on my micro SD and 21 gigs internally. The amount of space these game updates take is ridiculous sometimes. I had to download 4.5gb before booting up tales of xillia for instance. And that's far from the worst offender. Also unsure if I want to get a digital copy when theirs a chance last remnant could still be released physically. square Enix randomly decided to give star ocean first departure on switch a physical release through limited run recently. Despite the fact that it had been digital only on switch for 6 years it gets a random physical release out of the blue. So I could easily see square Enix doing a random physical release of last remnant maybe next year who knows. I would have never guessed we where getting star ocean this year after all
>>729295861>>5-10 paid shill Steam sale threads on the board at any given time>>not a single eShop sale thread despite a majority of /v/ being Nintendo users firstDon't even know where to begin with this one lolGood bait, OP
>>729295861you're legit better doing gamestops buy 2 get 1 free on preowned games since nintendo doesn't put anything worthwhile on sale and third party games are better elsewhere.
>>729296859sell old gamesthat's what I did to buy ZA since I have no job lol
>biggest sale of the year>look inside>$70 for an 8 year old game(DLC sold separately)Do people live like this?
I decided to go ahead and pick it up.
The entire point of consoles is buying physical gamesWhy are you using the eshop you dumbass
>>729303212you can't buy physical DLCs tho
>>729295861I’ve been marathoning Atelier games. A ton of them have been on sale for Christmas.
>>729295861>despite a majority of /v/ being Nintendo users firstNigger, most of this board is shitposting sonyfags. That's why no one takes this board seriously anymore.
>>729303463Why would you buy a game like that on a Nintendo console over Steam though? You would just have to buy it again in 5-6 years to play it on the newest Nintendo machine while Steam CHADS can play their copy at any time.
>>729295861>>729303513>despite a majority of /v/ being Nintendo users firstIf you're still one of those faggots that keep doing consolewarfaggotry, you should kill yourself.This board is about videogames, so it's always been PC+consoles
>>729303212game key carts are just digital with extra hassle if you're not going to sell them. might as well cut out the middle man in that scenario.
>>729303568PC users also get a free remaster every time they upgrade their PC too.
>>729303568Consolefags can't really think long-term, they'll end up port begging for the games they have right now in about a decade.
>>729303568Steamcels don't even own their games, just a licence.
>>729303659Nobody buys key cards
>>729304492you won't have a choice in the future
>>729303568Console games are often cheaper when the game isn't new.You are somewhat right about needing to buy the game again but the Xbone got updates which enabled backwards compatibility which was a nice move desu.Also PC users keep getting fucked by Windows/MS. Actually insane that Linux became viable thanks to some autist who wanted to 2B's ass and Gay Ben seething at MS because of Windows 8>>729303849EULA applies to every game.Actually in the newest Nintendo EULA you agree that they are allowed to brick your hardware when they want to.
>>729303568>Why would you buy a game like that on a Nintendo console over Steam though?Being able to play it anywhere
>>729304628Is that why Nintendo has started making smaller cart sizes after sales for GKCs has been close to 0?
>>729304704>what is the Steam Deck
>>729304628Bold of you to assume key cards are staying if they're consistently failing
>>729304765Not a good system with abysmal battery life.If I wanted to play sitting next to a outlet all the time I would just play on my PC.
>>729304813yeah because that's what nintendo does, change its mind when something fails
>>729297456It's fine. If you like slightly unusual jrpg gameplay, it has that. But it's not great. FF12 is better.
>>729304881>abysmal battery life.>he didn't get the OLED
>>729304887Not that Nintendo used keys in the first place but yeah if third parties start using the smaller carts then keys will die out.
>>729304887Yes, that's exactly what they do.
>>729303568I sold my switch 2 and bought a steam deck after reading this post
>>729295861Ive had a switch 2 since launch and the only S2 games I have are MKW, Pokemon, and now Cyberpunk since it was on sale for 17 bucks for a day. What are some good games that show off its power? On the fence with Fast Fusion and Rabbids Sparks of Hope
>>729304983>>729305098nintendo won't stop making key cards because it's the best way they have to fight against piracy
>>729305172It doesn't stop piracy in the slightest. I'm fact it's more of a danger.
>>729305231how
>>729305172>he thinks key were for piracy and not Jewish third party developers.If it were for piracy don't you think Nintendo would be using them for their first party games?
>>729304492You will if it's cheap enough.
>>729305314they will soon start doing it
>>729305376No, no they won't because they know it doesn't sell and will never sell because it's digital.
>>729305452yeah, keep telling you that
>>729305487Do you really think. They're going to slash their sales by almost 70% for nothing?
>>729305543 They already did that once with the Wii U, lmao. Nintendo is the king of doubling down on bad ideas until something miraculously works out-or collapses completely. If GKC margins aren’t hitting projections, they'll drop it like they did with the Virtual Boy, and act like it never existed.
>>729305543like I said, people won't have much of a choice but to buy key cards
>>729305563>They already did that once with the Wii U, lmaoNo, no they didn't.They put all of their focus on to the 3ds when they realised the wii u was flopping and when the switch released they immediately dropped the wii u, something they never do right off the bat.Nintendo isn't known for doubling down on bad ideas, if they know it's a bad idea then they'll get as much as they can from it and kill it.
>>729305575Of course they would have a choice, not buying us always an option and if faced with the choice of digital or nothing most will choose nothing.It's why digital adoption has stagnated.
Bought unicorn for 20.Cd project is being retarded. They should've kept the discount price at the incorrect one. It's unfair to people that didn't check the store day 1, and it just makes me not want to buy it because "well it was 17 euro before, I'm not paying 40 now"
>>729305575Then people won't buy it.
>>729297456>>729303140Pretty sure I played it away back on the 360, I don't remember jack shit except that I had a good time
>>729305827>>729305893>people>not buying nintendo gameslollmao even
>>729304881>abysmal battery life.better than the switch 2
>>729295861Tendies don't play any good games like daioujou rinne tensei or espagaluda 2. What's the point of a thread when they all only play the same 5 little kid games lol
>>729305984You're confusing Nintendo for Sony anon.Nintendo has always been in a precarious position where one wrong move can have a major impact on sales.
>>729305984The wii u says hi.
>>729306164I just always assume the worst possible outcomenintendo will keep doubling down on key cards until the end of times
>>729306216The key word being "possible".For that to be possible everyone at Nintendo would have to develop brain damage simultaneously.
>>729306304yes, that's what all nitnendo have already
>>729306341Which is why they aren't doubling down on keys and are, instead, doing the exact opposite.
>>729306419sure, we'll see
>>729303568That's not true at all. I can play all my switch games on my switch 2. What are you smoking?
>>729304765
>>729295861>5-10 paid shill Steam sale threadskek what a projecting retardalso, trying to get tendies to give LESS money to daddy 'tendo? do you have brain damage or something?

Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope Gold Edition $8.99
>>729295861I'm gonna focus on finishing some games i already have on switch instead of buying new ones>deltarune chapter 4>urban myth dissolution center
>>729296163Trying too hard
>>729295861>(((holidays)))buy an ad and take a shower you disgusting jew
>>729310243meds
>>729307847Ditto. There's no denying there's stuff I want to check out, but my backlog has gotten too big.
>>729295861>not a single eShop sale thread despite a majority of /v/ being Nintendo users firstnot even you believe this shit
>>729303849PC is the only platform where you truly own your games. I have the files, and it's trivial to crack Steam's DRM.
>>729307558>make an equally long list of Sega Saturn games>Anyone saying there is nothing to play on Saturn is clinically insane.Most of those games are saturn tier anyway
>>729306053Their idea of "arcade gameplay" is a frickin kirby game. lmao
>>729311693The Saturn had more games worth playing than the N64 did.
>"I still have a NSO voucher, let's see if there's anything good for it now">vouchers expire in a year-$50 and nothing to show for it.
Bit disappointed none of the Kirby games are on sale, was hoping at least Star Allies would be.Anyway, been eyeing:>Disgaea 4 Complete+>Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma>Astlibra>Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles>Mugen Souls>Void Terrarium>Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising>Metallic Child>Bravely Default Remaster>Mario+Rabbits: Sparks of Hope>Record of Lodoss War>Shadow of the Ninja RebornOpinions on them? Any other recommendations?
>>729295861I got baten kaitos and summum aeterna. I'm probably not going to play sa much because it's roguelite slop but I've been curious about the aeterna games. Gameplay seems solid and I'll definitely be grabbing the main game when it's on sale on xbox next (I'm an achievement whore).
>>729311881The vouchers expire? holy shit hahahaha why the fuck would anyone even buy them instead of just leaving the money in a savings account
>>729312105>Final Fantasy Crystal ChroniclesThis game has atrocious load times on Switch 1, dunno how it is on 2
Why the fuck is Pokémon arceus still $60 It’s almost half a decade old and gamefreak hates it
>>729307715Is the game fun?
>>729297456it is one of those games that seems really fucking cool till you play it. i bricked my game by getting locked in an impossible battle
>>729311693I don't believe the Saturn has anywhere the same amount of games present on Switch, but my point was more how it's (you)r personal problem if you fail to find titles on the console.>>729312105Would easily recommend Disgaea 4, Metallic Child and Record of Lodoss War. Heard good things about Astlibra but don't take up my word on this one.If you haven't that one yet, Ender Lillies is a must if you want a metroidvania.
>>729295861I sort feel disincentivized to buy from the eShop anymore now that they killed gold points. Whenever something is on sale on Switch, it's usually also on sale on Steam, and most Switch exclusives barely go on sale.I see Triangle Strategy and Octopath for $25, I've had both on my background radar for a while, which one is more worth checking out?
>>729295861What sale?Pokemon, Zelda, Metroid games etc are all still there at full price. Oh man, I can get the neutered switch version of NBA2K and madden at 25% off, what a christmas sale
>>729295861It's as if tendies have no games to buy or something
>>729295861switch 2 will keep selling worse fuck nintendo for locking me out of my account
>>729299189just pirate and buy from gamestopid say digital games from steam/ps5 under 10 dollars but fuck thatstarve the kikes loli still might buy echo point nova on steam lol endless osrs and skyrim gets boring
Fellas how pirate warriors 4 on the switch 2? I own the base game on PC but the deluxe here is cheap as shit.Eyeing that and maybe Cyberpunk
>>729315746If you're unironically considering buying cyberpunk on the switch despite having access to the objectively version of the game thanks to mods, then definitely buy PW4 since you have 0 standardsKeep in mind that it's getting ANOTHER dlc expansion soon so even your cheap deluxe edition will be a shitty cucked unfinished version of the game
>>729315540>Pokemon, Zelda, Metroid games etc are all still there at full priceThose games are worth full price unlike the slop that goes on sale 1 year after release
>>729316035Cultist post
>>729316035>"why yes botw is so good it actually raised in price over 8 years"
>>729312296Anon, all vouchers, gift cards, prepaid cards whatever expire.
>>729316090For $70, that's barely 10 cents an hour for BOTW. Less than 15 cents for Animal Crossing. That alone is a better value than anything on the Steam sale, and that's before we even take the actual quality of the experience into account
>>729316270Tatds have over 20k hours in Dota 2 and that game is worth $0You lost your argument and your dick tranny
Is astilibra actually good? I’ve fallen for a few too many memes shilled here the past few years
>>729316368it's one my favorite games of all time along with nioh 2.
>>729316035ok cool. But then why make a thread about a sale when everything on the eshop that's actually on sale is bargin bin slop and b-tier side games while the actual heavy hitter Nintendo exclusives are all still at full price?
>>729316347>Dota 2Incidentally, also superior on the Switch
>>729312296Because you can get 2 60 dollar games for 100, saving 20 dollars (or 30 if one of them is ToTK). You can get one and then save the other for later. It just happens that later is sooner than I had thought. >>729316182365 days for an expiry on something like this is kind of lame though, especially when releases are tapered out as far as they have been. I was going to blow it on MP4 just to see if it really is that bad since nothing else eligible is too eye catching, but it's not meant to be. And now I'm too butthurt to consider buying it normally.
>>729303849>Steamcels don't even own their games, just a licence.It's Okay When Nintendo Does It
>>729316550I’m about to api you fellow unite Chad
>>729295861do tendie games even go on sale? even the switch animal crossing from like 6 years ago is still $60
>>729316565>Because you can get 2 60 dollar games for 100qrd? I looked it up on Amazon and they're all the same price as the credit amount
>>729316858Why does DK has more value than Link?
My local bibeojame franchise has the Switch 2 version of Legends Z-A for like, 45 bucks. Is it worth it? I do like Pokemon
>>729316858It's not on amazon, it's an eshop thing. https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/nintendo-switch-game-vouchers/The caveat is you also have to be an NSO user, which at the time worked because I played a few online games, but really don't anymore so if I were to buy one now I'd have to resubscribe for 20 dollars to save 20 dollars. Also the program is getting axed at the end of next month so January is the last time to get them. Also no switch 2 games.
>>729316565>365 days for an expiry on something like this is kind of lame thoughThat's the standard amount of time for most vouchers. Ps+ ones for example also expire after a year
>>729295861I get paid on January 5th, and the sale ends before then. Lame…
>>729317031Do you like Modern Pokémon?If yes, first; I'm sorry, second; you will enjoy it.
>>729317229You know, I like when people pull the "oh pokemon is bad" angle because they can never explain how it's worse than the other games on the market.
>my friends at Nintendo will NEVER use key cards for their games>j-j-just ignore Pokopialol
>>729295861>HOLIDAY SALE!!!>$41.99>$45.49>$62.98>$39.99Nice sale Nintendies lmao
>>729317330When did Nintendo buy Koei and TPC?
I grabbed Red Dead Redemption 1 (was cheaper to get Switch 1 then upgrade) despite owning it on Xbox just because handheld will be my excuse to play Undead Nightmare eventually.Also grabbed Devil Summoner since the PC port is iffy. Would rebuy Pikmin 1 and 2 digitally if on sale so they're always available but I'll hope for next summer.
>>729317318horrible art, performance, slow, shitty and shallow gameplay, it's not a mystery
>>729317421When you're locked-in to a console that's still selling 7-year-old games for full price at $60, $10 off seems like a bargain!
>>729317472Case in point.Vauge remarks, graphics and absolutely zero elaboration nor comparisons with any other games.Its like you've only ever played pokemon.
>>729303212A)It's a handheld so digital is good for travel.B)Disposable franchises designed to be played at a moments notice like Mario Party are better digital since you won't care about them once the new one is out and you can swap in easier.I used to be a hardcore physical fag for Nintendo but Mario Party Jamboree broke me out of that because trying to play with /v/ when I saw a thread was annoying since I had to swap the cartridge and swap back if not enough people joined.
>>729316660It's crazy how much this impacts my potential purchases. This past week alone it's stopped me from buying Sonic x Shadow Generations, P3R, and the Bravely Default remake.
>>729317318>>729317587>Pokémon being shit is okay because other games are shit too.
>only digital titles I want I'd be double dipping on>physical games are far and few in-betweenHow is P3 Reloaded compared to FES? I know the tone and presentation is off, but how about the rest? One of my biggest issues with FES was the slow pacing. Is that resolved in the remake?
>>729306586Also no broken DRM to deal with, I own a Deck yet got RDR1 on Switch 2 because the PC port requires Rockstar's stupid broken launcher.
>>729311881>Buying vouchers without already having games in mind for them.
>>729317691As opposed to thinking the entire genre is bad just because you think pokemon is. You don't really understand the position you're in, do you.
>>729317692Depends how you define pacing. The story is exactly the same but the combat and dungeon crawling is a bit faster due to all the OP shit you get in Reload.
>>729317692I don't think Persona is worth it at the current pricing. It'll be down to $20 or less in a few months like the Playstation and Xbox releases. It was already down to $30 with an Amazon coupon the other day(already expired iirc).
>>729317853>It's okay that vouchers have expiration dates.Shalom.
>>729317691>pokemon is shit>why do you think it's shit?>because is said so and everything else is shit too!
Eshop desperately needs to clear out the phone game tier slop cluttering it and add some wii eshop tier music
>>729318007When did I say that?
Did anyone here manage to get Cyberpunk for 75% off the other day? Im still in disbelief it happened. I was ready to buy the game for regular price the day it happened. I can now use the money I saved for an SD card so I'm ready for RE7/8/9Only played a few minutes of it but holy fuck I'm kind of amazed at how well it runs and looks. I still don't believe its actually running on the hardware and it's secretly streaming or something. I can't wait to see how games in a few years look and run if this is what we're getting at launch.
>>729317972>Depends how you define pacing.Week 1 of new month:>Get to highest point of Tartarus>fight bossRest of the month:>do absolutely nothing but talk to insufferable social links and go to the arcade>maybe a story event at some point>fight story boss at the end of the month>rinse repeatIs this at least a quicker process, or does the game give me a reason to do anything else at all?>>729317994I mainly need something to put in my cart for a B2G1. I beat FES a long time ago, so I figured I might try the remake. The other option is Raidou Remastered. If I don't like them, I'll just trade them in in February towards Fire Emblem or something.
>>729318260>Is this at least a quicker process, or does the game give me a reason to do anything else at all?I mean you can fastforward through social links I guess, that's it though. The game is still Persona 3 after all.
>unicorn overlord 65% offStrong recommendation for any who doesn't already have it. As for me. I'll finally get Transistor at 80% off. It's the only Supergiant game I haven't played.
>>729295861>despite a majority of /v/ being Nintendo users firstKek you actually believe that? Bro everyone here is emufag. You'll be in rude awakening when Nintendo finally made their new games switch 2 exclusive.
>>729318364>The game is still Persona 3 after all.Guess it can't be helped. Raidou it is
>>729317691>oh no, he's right what do I do now?>.... CALL EVERYTHING SHIT!Nigger do you even like games?
>>729317451>Tendies will find the most minute thing to use as copeI mean they don't call you guys cultists for nothing.
>>729306053What was her name again? She’s cute
>>729318759So you really do think that Nintendo own them.
>>729318629>Reload does not allow weapon switching>no Thor + Heavy Master comboAaaaand binned. That was the best thing about P3FES gameplay-wise. Doubling down on Raidou
another dogshit schizo thread polluting the board, courtesy of the resident tendie cultist
>>729318759Imagine unironically calling people tendies just because they don't believe Nintendo owns the world.
>>729317330Gamefreak isn't a first party dev, it's the whole reason they get to release their shit on phones, Xbox and PlayStation Obviously gamefreak would rather save money with game key cards rather than do what Nintendo is doing and put all their first party games on carts
>>729319545Pokemon Winds & Waves might be key cards and they'd get away with it since Pokemon is a bit of play per day franchise so people would say fuck it and just buy digital at that point.
>>729295861I bought Hades for 7 euros or whatever. Never played it before and it's pretty dope ngl
>>729318515I been curious about Unicorn Overlord, never played SRPGs, is it a good way to at least get a feel for the genre?
>>729319720>Pokemon Winds & Waves might be key cardsNot if they want it to sell. Digital vs physical is something that trumps pokemon "loyalty" by a country mile.
>>729319814no, it's a braindead rts (with pause).
>>729319814Different TRPGs play differently, so no. But you'll get a feel for that game, at least.
>>729319851Buddy, it's Pokemon. Scarlet & Violet looked like alpha games on Switch 1 and it still became the second best selling gen after gen 1.
>>729312531That sucks if that's still the case, but aside from that can you tell me more about the game?>>729313367>Ender LilliesAlready got it on Steam, though I haven't played it yet, but maybe I will get it on Switch in the future if I like it enough. Will consider the others more too, been pretty curious about Metallic Child for quite a while.Thanks to the both of you for replying.
>>729320115Anon, you can't compare the idea of owning a game to something as insignificant as graphics. They're on completely different levels with the latter basically meaning nothing if the game itself is good, this is probably where you're going to argue why SV is actually bad without talking about the game.
>>729317421>>729317530Sorry you're poor
>>729319851For humans, yeah probably. For tendies though? lmao>>729317530>>729317421Don't you dare call their best friends greedy.
>>729319851>Digital vs physical is something that trumps pokemon "loyalty" by a country mile.You are out of your mind. Digital vs physical is already an extremely niche topic to begin with. 15 years ago maybe but now people buy digital and don't give a shit at all.
>>729321138Weird that you would consider being a Nintendo fan a higher form of life just because their digital adoption rates are low
>>729321315I honest to God see you all as a lesser being.
>>729321296>Digital vs physical is already an extremely niche topic to begin withNTA but are you fucking kidding? Why do you think digital only consoles aren't selling? Why do you think Keys aren't selling?Digital adoption is incredibly fucking low. Did you fall for all of those journalists saying>wow, everyone wants digital!Just because they were counting every single digital only game skewing the statistics?
>>729319851People didn't care when they stopped programming every pokemon into every game or when they were forced to pay for online and $30 expansions or when they were forced to keep their old pokemon in a bank for $16 a year, they certainly don't care if gamefreak forces them to buy an expensive micro sd card just to buy the new pokemon game digitally You truly underestimate how cucked pokefags truly are.
>>729321475>Why do you think Keys aren't selling?Becuase most of them are shitty ports of 6 year old games.
>>729321563Anon, the majority of keys are new games.
>get switch from sister>havent bought a game in years (im a pirate)>all the games are retardedly expensive>check buy and sell>people selling old games for $50jesus fucking christi'm going to Japan this summer, any /trv/ fags know if I can just get switch games cheaper there?
>>729319814It has a very good demo. I'd give that a go.
>>729321563>>729321616You gotta remember tendies take pride in their friends at Nintendo making money.
>>729321518Are you really going to pretend like those things weren't some of the biggest controversies in gaming within the last 10 years? Well, not this one>and $30 expansionsBecause to no one's surprise paying 30 for an expansion with new maps and content is seen as better than paying 40 for a game that's practically the same but with some new post game.>You truly underestimate how cucked pokefags truly are.You're not really showing that with your examples.
>>729321518>dexit>something that caused massive amounts of butthurt everywhere, more so than any other game>People didn't careDo you just live in a completely different reality to the rest of us? People cared immensely about it and still do despite the fact that pokemon was the only monster tamer NOT to cut mon until then.
>>729321616I think Japanese Switch 2 games are region locked
>>729322007It's kind of funny how out of touch with the gaming public anti-tendies areI mean look at this guy >>729322108He thinks that tendies exist as one big group and buy all of their games despite the fact that the sales numbers between games can so met have a 40m difference or higher.
>snoypedos are honest to god dilating in a sales thread of a console they "don't care" aboutGrim.
>>729322174They aren't.
>>729320470>>729321475I think you're out of touch with reality if you think the average person gives a crap about abstract notions of "ownership" (with all the autism and mental gymnastics), in an era where subscription-based platforms and Steam are both popular. And iirc, more and more Switch users have adopted digital over the years according to Nintendo's own financial sumups. Which also mean keycards aren't failing either.
>>729321831>>729322007Dexit only affected like 1% of players, the majority of players don't fucking care. For all the players gamefreak loses with their bullshit they gain double the amount of players who don't care about anything but charizard being in the game
>>729322007Then they proceeded to buy it anyway, Switch Pokemon sells well eclipsed 3DS sales and at console pricing.
>>729295861>hyrule warriors DE is on sale on the japanese eshop>not on sale on the english eshopcunts.
>>729301842I bought it for 25 dollars form Walmart at the Switch 2 launch and got the "free" upgrade with my subscription to online. Got TOTK for 35 and did the same upgrade. Are you people retarded? Walmart and Costco are the ONLY stores to buy Nintenjew games from. Walmart always sells brand new Nintenjew games for 10 dollars below MSRP and Costco does 8 dollars below MSRP. Walmart regularly has shit on sale too.
>>729317650Wait a few months for you to be called a antiGKC snoy with how the marketers are going by now lmao.
>>729319091That's John Oshimai, the mascot of /v/.
>>729322445Can't you just change the account region, buy it then change back?
>>729322705No. For the Japanese Eshop, you need a nip credit card
Is Mario Wonder on sale. If not no point in buying anything else on this soulless system.
>>729322317>anon mentions how anti tendies are out of touch>immediately makes a post using that same phrasingHe really got you to a t, didn't he.>in an era where subscription-based platforms and Steam are both popularAnon, I'm going to blow your mind here but only PlayStation has high sub numbers. Nintendo and Xbox is incredibly low, hell I personally bought a switch 2 from the my Nintendo store and they gave me a free 12 month sub, it's not something anyone cares about.As for steam, the difference there is the utility of PC and being able to copy your files whenever you want. In other words, while it's still digital you'll still have ownership of your games.>more and more Switch users have adopted digital over the years according to Nintendo's own financial sumupsYou mean the same ones that haven't shown a significant change since 2012? They almost always hover around 20-30% like every other platform.>Which also mean keycards aren't failing either.Anon, look at this>>729312219Tell me how many are keys.We can see them failing every single week even for popular IPs like dragon quest.
>>729322445Is it true that the original Hyrule Warriors runs at 1080p handheld on switch 2?
>>729322212>no TRUE tendieLmao >>729322219Sorry your friend’s greediness makes them do shitty sales than people rightfully shit on. You’ll survive. >>729322629It’s gonna be so interesting to see how tendies change their stance on the GKC after Pokopia and other Nintendo games start using them.
>>729306523How about your Wii U purchases?
>>729323120Nintendo really needed a way to charge $60 for all those games again and pretend the switch had a good library. Please understand.
>>729323023If they didn't buy the wii u what makes you think they're going to buy a pokemon spin off?
>>729323120Well you can just play them on the wii u.
>>729322926>>You mean the same ones that haven't shown a significant change since 2012? They almost always hover around 20-30% like every other platform.The percentage is actually bigger in Nintendo's case, hovering around 50~60%>>Anon, look at thisIf you're gonna use Famitsu as a source, I recall the Octopath Zero game on Switch 2 (a keycard) sold in the same numbers as the PS5 version, as in the range of 18k ~ 20k units. Which is decent in case of Switch 2 since the console is still fairly recent.
Didn't see anything worth buying other than DQ3
>>729303568>imageI want more people to dressed themselves in iced out watches, rings, grills, and chains.
>>729301842>Only notable addition to both games is the Zelda Notes, which for all purposes should be a free patch for both versions>It's not even actually in the game, it's a companion app you have to access to hear the lore tidbitsAmazes me that people enjoy these games. One time each was enough for me. They lack all personality and fuck up the execution of every major mechanic. It's the unsweetened oatmeal of vidya.And that's to mentioning the kikery, like the bullshit, low effort DLC that functions the exact same as FFXV, in that they have major lore/story implications but are ripped out and sold back.Yet Nintendo catches no heat? Fuck off. Iwata's greatest crime was not dying earlier. This faggot shit is his fault.
switch 2 has no games
>Physical games on sale>Nothing but shit on the e-storeFucking hell Nintendo I don't want to have to use cartridges
Is there any way at all to get dk cheaper digital without waiting for shitendos cheap asses to put it for 40 or 50?
>Sales tax on digital licensesThe motivation to not murder state government grows smaller with every passing day
>>729323613>The percentage is actually bigger in Nintendo's case, hovering around 50~60%Anon, you're looking at the blue part of that chart, that part pertains to games available physically and digitally and as you can see only FY25/Q3 went out of the 20-30 range.Everything else is irrelevant since it includes digital only software, dlc and even NSO. >I recall the Octopath Zero game on Switch 2 (a keycard) sold in the same numbers as the PS5 version, as in the range of 18k ~ 20k unitsNot really much of a high bar considering no one is buying games on ps5. Also you neglected to mention that the switch 1 version, a physical cart, outsold both. In fact the switch 2 version was the lowest selling version of the three.If you're going to use data like that anon, make sure you know how to read it.
>>729324335Leaf?
>>729324549>Also you neglected to mention that the switch 1 version, a physical cart, outsold both.A console that has been out longer and thus has a bigger installbase as such, which is what I implied in my post if you tried to read (instead of accusing others of your own lack of reading comprehension).Still, I find your autistic hate over digital and your denial of reality (that the average person don't really care about the physical vs digital debate, let alone the outrage about keycards) to be fascinating

You even made the claim that the worst selling version of a game which was a game key sold well. Do you really think you're in the position to say anyone else is denying reality?
>>729324663Georgia.Welcome to the land of the free* lmao.
>>729325083People spend 3 to 4 hours on essays about why modern Pokémon is shit. Pokéfags are delusional.They s simply choose not to listen and continue to swallow the slop. That's why they stole Sonic's place as the joke of the industry.
>>729295861Do any of you recommend setting your account to japan and getting japanese gift cards? When I went to japan games were significantly cheaper.
>>729325083Well, why not just prove them wrong by going into detail instead of pretending they do?
>>729317902No.Other games in the Monster Tamer genre are better than Pokémon.
>>729325703Which game?
>>729325776Any Dragon Quest Monsters, any modern Digimon game. Palworld has far more content than any modern Pokémon game to sink hours in. In fact, I'd even say that Pokémon ROM hacks do a much better job than modern Pokémon games, even with limited resources.At least they show some hint of effort.
eshop sales suck and I don't want to pay nintendo tax. Wow RE4 is still $10 when it's $5 on steam right now, fuck off.
>>729326062$5 isn't a big deal. It just feels right on the Switch in w way that it doesn't sitting on a desk like you're filing a tax report
>>729322629Thats already happening despite Capcom being mad as fuck their brand new releases were thrown in bargain bins for less than 1000 yen and no one bought them still
>>729296024Almost all indies that are on steam are on the eshop. They cost the same on this eshops winter sale as they do on steam's
>>729326030Okay, so how are they better?
>>729326246>it feels right on the one platform that should have had gyro but doesntOkay retard
>>729326030>Palworld has far more content than any modern Pokémon game to sink hours in.What content?
>>729326617I'm willing to bet he's going to say something like>digimon has unique animations for every mon!Not knowing that almost every unique attack animation is the same as their regular attack animation just with a close up and different particle effects.
>>729295861Got Plucky Squire. It runs great on Switch 2. Great game also.
>>729312296There's a reason the jew fears the samurai
>>729326617They are more polished, and not just graphically, but in other aspects as well. They offer more content overall (and not just places to go and things to do, but more options, such as different difficulty levels), more mechanics, different side activities to the main gameplay loop, better balancing, voice acting to aid immersion (something I admit is not present in ROM hacks, but for obvious reasons), better art direction, and better post-game content, and there's genuine passion on the part of the developers, since they're not the dominant franchise in the genre, they need to prove their worth, instead of going with a mentality of "why try, it will sell anyway".
>>729326913Digimon cybersleuth was made with 5000 dollars and every single signature attack on every digimon has a unique animation. Your comment only applies to generic inheritable attacks. The real own is that the only viable digimon in cybersleuth is the ones with penetrating attacks, which is only about 20 digimon out of 300T. Enjoys both
>>729326679>le dismissive argument.KEK
>>729297456This is why I hate Limited Run and physical on Switch. SE just wants you to double dip.
>>729303568Unironically a lot of my Windows games didn't work until I got Deck. Somehow they just work on Linux/SteamOS.
>>729327265>>729327306None of these points matter. Pokémon sells more because it's better; otherwise, it wouldn't sell as much.That's why Pokémon is the leader of the genre.
>>729327846Wait until he says>but but but SALES DOESN'T MATTER!They all do that when they run out of arguments.
>>729327306Why would you do this to yourself?Why on earth would you think this>Not knowing that almost every unique attack animation is the same as their regular attack animation just with a close up and different particle effects.Which is clearly describing a unique attack which are the only ones with different particle effects and angles is talking about inherited moves which don't? Pretty much the only ones that have true unique animations are anime related ones and even then they still reuse animations for any variants like Black Wargreymon. > Enjoys bothClearly not if you didn't know that much.
>>729327846If you say so.
>>729328212It's good that we've reached an understanding.
>>729309267What? I just want to know which games I should transactionated.
>>729327265>They are more polished, and not just graphically, Vague statement. Also graphics are the last thing that makes or breaks a game. >but in other aspects as well. It would help if you actually named those other aspects. I mean, pokemon has just about all of them beat in battle mode variety for instance even after they removed some in gen 7 since just about every other game only provides one. >They offer more content overall (and not just places to go and things to do, but more options, such as different difficulty levels), more mechanics, different side activities to the main gameplay loop, better balancing, voice acting to aid immersion (something I admit is not present in ROM hacks, but for obvious reasons), better art direction, and better post-game content, and there's genuine passion on the part of the developers, since they're not the dominant franchise in the genre, they need to prove their worth, instead of going with a mentality of "why try, it will sell anyway".None of this means anything. You've basically just gone "I think it's better because I said it's better in these areas".I mean, if you're going to talk about mechanics and content at least talk about something relating to them but you won't because you'll have to mention how some of these games have convoluted breeding or evolution mechanics, digimon has gotten better in this regard over the years but it's still extremely grindy not to mention some evos being locked to story progression. I I remember right in Cyber Sleuth something like Flamedramon, which isn't very good as it is, is a fairly late unlock making it useless in the late game.Let's not even get into difficulty modes where the hardest mode isn't actually harder, they just make it more tedious with increased HP.You can say that there's "genuine passion" as much as you want but looking at them it looks like they're just making games for the money and spectacle.
>>729327846>>729327957That's some blatant samefagging. You know that no one cares about sales right? So why would you think bringing up sales to falseflag would be the way to go?
>>729328479Shout out to SMT 5 which removed evolution.
ever since they added 2FA to the eshop I don't buy as much stuff anymore
>>729328479>Vague statement.I don't care about your classifications. Be objective and don't stray from the subject.>Also graphics are the last thing that makes or breaks a game. For a visual medium? Are you smoking crack? Video games are an interactive visual medium. Graphics can really make or break a game because, being an interactive medium, how much you imerse yourself with a game depends on its visual appeal. Just like a movie needs good cinematography, because it is also a visual medium, just not as interative. It doesn't matter if the graphics are realistic, cartoonish, or surreal, they are important to a visual medium. You're simply ignoring this because it undermines your overall argument.>None of this means anything.You asked me what makes them better, only to dismiss everything as "irrelevant".So, what's important to you in a game?>You can say that there's "genuine passion" as much as you want but looking at them it looks like they're just making games for the money and spectacle.At least they want the "spectacle" part, which, you know, is what video games are supposed to do, since they are an entertainment medium.
you guys recommend ball x pit?
>>729328562>No one cares about salesYou say that without shame while this thread >>729312219 is still up on Christmas Eve.Sorry to burst your bubble, but it wasn't me.
>>729329376>Be objective and don't stray from the subject.You're saying that as someone who openly refused to talk on an objective level. You do see the irony in you saying that, right?>For a visual mediumAnon, video games are an interactive medium. Which you yourself even mention in contradiction of this claim >Graphics can really make or break a game because, being an interactive medium We aren't talking about movies or TV shows, first and foremost what you can do in a game is the most important factor and that has nothing to do with visuals. That's what makes graphics inherently subjective in a judging a book by it's cover kind of way.>You're simply ignoring this because it undermines your overall argument.No, it's because it's wholly irrelevant to the conversation you can have a good game with bad graphics and you can have a bad game with good graphics at the end of the day it doesn't matter.>You asked me what makes them betterYeah, and you gave me nothing.When people ask you something like that they expect detail, HOW is it better. Not just>it's better in this area because I said so!Granted I doubt you've played any of these games, if you have though it really goes to show how low quality it is if you can't remember even a single thing from it in detail.>At least they want the "spectacle" partWhich is the problem with the industry at the moment, it's spectacle over substance when it should be the other way around for an interactive medium like video games.Spectacle only started becoming the focus when companies like Sony, Square and Konami tried to attract the casual audience in gen 5.
>>729329590It's Christmas day and Famitsu/mediacreate sales have been posted here consistently for well over a decade.That said he kirby flag is a flag made and posted by someone who wants the threads deleted under false spam and console war claims so it very well may be you for all we know ACfag.
>>729329376>Graphics can really make or break a gameNo the fuck it can't otherwise games prior to gen 7 would be considered unplayable.
>>729316761>>729317421>>729317530Kirby Star Allies, Tropical Freeze, MK8D, and Mario Odyssey should not cost $60 this much time later.
>>729295861
>>729305169DK is the only good game so far. Everything else was a dud, and Kirby was fun for like 20 minutes
>>729320153not him but the multiplayer aspect is gone and it's terrible
>>729330351>No the fuck it can't otherwise games prior to gen 7 would be considered unplayable.You're mistaking "outdated graphics" to "bad graphics.Not on purpose, I hope.
Got an unexpected $100 gift card, if I bought vouchers to pick up prime 4 what are some good pickups to go with it?
>didn't get a switch 2 for christmas>now i'm concerned with the price gauging for 2026 due to RAM chips and AI.
>>729329376>Graphics can really make or break a game because, being an interactive medium, how much you imerse yourself with a game depends on its visual appeal.Immersion is for people who play games to escape from reality, not for people who actually like video games.By the way that would mean that indie games wouldn't ever be popular.
>>729303140As someone who has 3 versions of this game and played it 3 times (X360, Switch, and PS4) I'd say it was a fine purchase. Have fun.

>>729330794Let me guess, you buy digitally on PlayStation
>gamestop B2G1 sale>2 games that I want are sold out before I check outNever mind, fuck it. For those of you that haven't bought anything in the digital sale yet, I got notification of Paypal offering a 20% cash back deal on digital purchases. It referenced Nintendo, so I'm assuming the eshop is included.
>>729330406still up 15% ytd
>>729330172>You're saying that as someone who openly refused to talk on an objective level.I gave you a list of objective things just so you could say "ah, that doesn't count".If I present something like User Reviews and Ratings, the most objectivity I can have using data based on the aggregated opinion of reviewers and users, you'll simply say "those aren't objective either".Anything that goes against your argument "isn't objective". You can even play debates on "Easy Mode", sure, but leave me out of it.>Anon, video games are an interactive mediumInteractive Visual Medium.You can play games without sound, some games you can even play without using your hands, but you can't play blind. And before using any speedrunner who does blindfolded speedruns as an example, remember that they first completed the game normally, without the blindfold, and then practiced a lot to be able to play blindfolded. No video game on the planet can be played and enjoyed by a blind person because it is an interactive visual medium.> it's because it's wholly irrelevantSays you.I will ask you again: What makes a game good for you.>Which is the problem with the industry at the moment, it's spectacle over substanceI agree. But just because spectacle can lead to superficiality doesn't mean you shouldn't strive to impress your player.Especially if you own the most profitable franchise in the entire solar system, in the same system with heavy hitters like Mario and Zelda, who aim for the spectacle while giving good gameplay.
I’ve got a £30 voucher for the Nintendo store for my Switch 2 as well as some Christmas money and I might buy:>Romancing SaGa 2>Persona 3 (have on PS5, haven’t played it yet but would prefer to play handheld)>Raidou Remastered>SMT V Vengeance (also have on PS5, would prefer to play handheld)>Suikoden I&II>Octopath 2Thoughts /v/?I’m also preparing to sell my Steam Deck, just prefer playing on the Switch 2 with its 1080p screen. Even older 3D games are looking shit at 800p.
>>729331073supposedly the Persona 3 port is dogshit, I'd recommend looking into whether it was fixed before you drop the cash
>>729330853>Less than a minute before he mentions PlayStation
>>729331073>but would prefer to play handheldIt'll run at 30FPS, just so you know.
>>729330762And why do you think I think that way?I hope you're not putting words in my mouth... or letters in my posts.
>>729331150Was just patched up actually, 60 FPS option when docked, 30 is handheld which is still bullshit considering Deck performance.
>>729295861late life switch fag here, the eshop got some decent stuff for sale and im not ashamed to say that i bought twice games i already had on steam just because they were cheaper and i wanted to play them back in handheld, but goodlord it is full of trash, forget slop half of the shop is pure unfiltered trash and don't make me start with the abhorrent performance, jesus christ is like im back using my dying win 7 setup from 2012.
>>729330794Post your Steam library.
>>729331179So that's a 'yes' then.
>thread hijacked by GF semen slurpers and muhsalesfags
>>729331309>>729331548Buying games digitally is already clown shit. Although games on Steam (and probably PSN) aren't massively overpriced. And they won't randomly take your shit away like Nintendo did with digital Wii and 3ds games
>>729331073>>Romancing SaGa 2that game was amazing. Studio Xeen was perfect for the job. Get it physically, you can get the upgrade version for the switch 2 later.
>>729330471Depends, what are you into?Just looking at the list and based on what I like I'd go with>Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition>Xenoblade Chronicles 2>Xenoblade Chronicles X>Zelda TotK>Dragon Quest Builders 2Those are all big meaty games well worth $50 imoMight want to check on Deku Deals to make sure you don't waste a voucher on a game that is constantly on sale under $50
>>729331674>and probably PSNLMAO the irony when PlayStation is currently removing games from people's systems
>>729331061>I gave you a list of objective thingsYou gave me a list but absolutely nothing objective because you didn't and still haven't describe any of those things from any of the games mentioned. It's almost as if you've never played them.>Anything that goes against your argument "isn't objective"It's more that you don't have the knowledge to argue in objective manner. Which makes you wonder why you're even bothering since you aren't furthering your stance, you're just showing everyone that you have no understanding of video games whatsoever.>but you can't play blind.You can't do most things blind so that doesn't really work for your argument, that's said books are a visual medium yet you can do that blind but I digress. The point is that while video games require sight it isn't the main aspect of it, ultimately what a game looks like won't change the content or mechanics in a game, which is something you refuse to talk about. >What makes a game good for you. It's pretty obvious if you had actually bothered reading my posts. >But just because spectacle can lead to superficiality doesn't mean you shouldn't strive to impress your player.

Making a lot of money doesn't mean you have to use all of it to make something generic just to impress the casual audience. Look at that other gamefreak game that beast of reincarnation thing, it looks terrible but it was praised for that just because it was a generic realistic game. >Mario and Zelda, who aim for the spectacle while giving good gameplay. Note how neither of these games impress with graphics but mechanics and content.
>>729332097>ProbablyReading doesn't seem to be your strong suit. Also a quick search doesn't show anything about PlayStation removing games from your console.
>>729331674Who cares if they're "over priced" (see: standard prices) if Sony has the worst security of any platform and has extremely intrusive DRM?>like Nintendo did with digital Wii and 3ds gamesWhat? They've never taken away games.
Fantasy Life is finally on sale so I picked that up and Plants Vs. Zombies. I was hoping the Gex trilogy would be on sale but it's not and I can't warrant full asking price for it.
>>729332489The first result for PSN games removed from library is a guy from reddit who had his game removed from his library with someone linking to another thread where multiple people have an account corruption issue.

>>729332613>B-b-but arbitrary goalpostHonestly I don't really care about PlayStation and I am not obsessed with that company like you are. So whatever helps you cope.>What? They've never taken away games.If you bought digital games on your Wii then those are gone. You can't redownload their shitty e-shop so you can't redownload the games you previously bought. So anyone still buying digital Nintendo garbage is a complete mouthbreathing retard.
>>729332785>>729332913So actually Sony being incompetent as usual and not something they intended. So not the same thing as what Nintendo has done with the Wii
>>729333132>If you bought digital games on your Wii then those are gone.no they aren't, why are you lying, you can still redownload any wii you bought
>>729333273>So actually Sony being incompetent as usual and not something they intended. It shouldn't have happened either way and it only happened because they have DRM that constantly checks your purchases, something Nintendo doesn't have mind you. >So not the same thing as what Nintendo has done with the WiiThey haven't done anything with the wii other than close the shop. They don't have the drm to take away your games on any platform so what are you even talking about?
>>729333132>You can't redownload their shitty e-shop so you can't redownload the games you previously bought.What? The wii shop wasn't something you download for starters other wise you wouldn't even be able to get into the show since that was the only method of downloading. Second you can still redownload games.

Previously purchased titles can still be re-downloaded. However, this option will also be discontinued at some point in the future. (Exact date TBD)''This is from your precious Nintendo themselves.

>>729333979>Previously purchased titles can still be re-downloaded.indeed>the Wii store has been gone for a few years now.for new purchases, you can still download previously purchased games
>>729333979In other words they haven't taken away your games and there's going to be a moment in the future where they remove the ability to redownload games... But they aren't taking it away.Reading isn't your strong suit, is it.
>>729334293>Previously purchased titles can still be re-downloaded. However, this option will also be discontinued at some point in the future.They literally say they will take them away though, retard. And they already have because the store is gone now. I am not even sure you can access the Nintendo servers on your Wii anymore.
>>729303212get with the times, grandpa
>>729334441>They literally say they will take them away though, retardOkay, so explain how it deletes the game from your system
>>729334441So you just hate all digital platforms then.
>>729295861Does XCX have a switch2 patch yet?
>>729334745No
>>729334765wtf is Monolith doing?my switch2 gathers dust waiting.
>>729334656That's a very weak attempt at moving the goalpost. If they take away your ability to redownload a game then that's taking away your ownership of said game.>>729334721Kinda yeah, buying games digitally will never truly be like owning a game. However I do trust Steam and even PSN/Xbox more than Nintendo. So far Nintendo has been acting the scummiest.
How are the witchspring games and 13 sentinels?
>>729335215>That's a very weak attempt at moving the goalpostThat's not moving the goalposts, that's what taking away your games means.>then that's taking away your ownership of said game. Then how do they delete it? If they remove the ability to download and you can still access the game then you still own it. To take away your game they have to take away access to the game itself.
>>729335129Same im sorta half waiting to see if the xenoblade games will get free patches. If it's paid I'm just gonna play them on pc since I kinda already went through the trouble of downloading all the 4k60fps mods for them. But a teeny tiny part of me also would like to play it handheld every now and then
>>729335215>However I do trust Steam and even PSN/Xbox more than NintendoYou trust the companies who have removed games from players libraries in the past, including redownloads, more than the one that lacks the ability to do so?Man that anti-Nintendo mentality is extremely damaging to one's standardards isn't it.
is RDR on Switch2 60fps?
I have $47.50 in account credit (I put 50 dollars into my account but already bought dicey dungeons) and after a quick flick through dekudeals these games stand out the most to meThe only one I've played before was world of final fantasy and that was way back in 2016. I enjoyed it.Any reccs from this list?
>Mario vs Rabbids is on extremely steep sale>"What the fuck, 90% off? For a Mario game? Is that a mistake?">check>it's real>check publisher>Ubisoft>realise the only reason a Mario game would ever have more than 30% off digitally is because it was published by any other company than Nintendo, even if its fucking Ubisoft of all thingsNintendo sales are such fucking dogshit.
>>729295861A'ight, I want to play some strategy games, but I have no idea what kind. Give me a range of inexpensive recs please
>>729335480Answered my own question- Yes and it supports mouse controls.
>>729335347No it is a very shameful attempt at moving the goalpost. Right now you are defending a company to take away a game you paid money for. And that makes you a fucking retard. Not sure how much memory you have on your Wii but I hope it's enough. Only being able to play your game on 1 single specific console isn't owning a game.>>729335445>You are just hating on my heckin wholesome company>Not gonna provide any proof of my claims thoughI actually posted reliable sources.
>>729331279>that i bought twice games i already had on steam just because they were cheaper and i wanted to play them back in handheldThis is something I have been thinking on doing too, several of the games I have on Steam I feel like I would enjoy plenty more in a handheld system, though I have been hesitating a little.>but goodlord it is full of trash, forget slop half of the shop is pure unfiltered trashYou can say that again, looking through the Great Deals section can be pretty frustrating with the absurd amount of clearly half-assed, slop games that plague it.
>>729303140>Baten KaitosMy man!
I just had my Switch 2 arrive today. I bought Final Fantasy Tactics and FFI-VI Bundle.What else should I buy?Mainly like RPGs (Turn based, Action, Strategy)I don't mind action games either.
>>729335607Songs of Conquest is a very solid modern Heroes of Might and Magic clone if you're looking for a turn based game. As far as RTS go you don't really need anything other than Age of Empires 2
>>729335879>Right now you are defending a company to take away a game you paid money for.No, I'm asking you to explain how a game is taken away from you if you still have access to it. That alone doesn't have anything to do with any company nor is it a defence for anything.>Not sure how much memory you have on your Wii but I hope it's enough Enough for what? You can't download anything new. That's the only way you can fill it up.>Only being able to play your game on 1 single specific console isn't owning a game.So what you're saying is that because you can't transfer your licence between platforms ie steam to psn to Nintendo to epic you don't own your game on any of these platforms?
>>729335879>I actually posted reliable sourcesYou didn't post any sources. You haven't posted a single example of Nintendo taking away someone's games the only person who has posted anything like that was this guy >>729332913
Got this and Rayman Legends. Both are 8 bucks each.
>>729336018Super Mario RPG and Paper Mario TTYD are both great, Bravely Default is good. All remakes, so your milage may very on the version, but good games.
>>729335607Unicorn Overlord
Im honestly considering just selling my switch 2 at this point, I use it so little and the joycons feel awful
>>729318515>TransSisters, we are finally winning
>>729336139>No, I'm asking you to explain how a game is taken away from you if you still have access to it. That alone doesn't have anything to do with any company nor is it a defence for anything.Except you no longer have full access to it. What you have now is a single copy of your game on a single console. You can no longer change consoles or even memeory otherwise you will lose your game forever. It's basically the same as having to keep your game disc in your console forever otherwise it will disintegrate. And you are clearly trying to defend it by going ''well I can still play it for now so''>Enough for what? You can't download anything new. That's the only way you can fill it up.You should be allowed to use it for whatever you want. But because Nintendo took away ownership you can't anymore. Also safe files exist.>So what you're saying is that because you can't transfer your licence between platforms ie steam to psn to Nintendo to epic you don't own your game on any of these platforms?You should just have access to your license if you bought it. With Steam for example I can get an entirely new computer log into Steam and I would have access to all the games I bought. You can try to be as pedantic as you want this only exposes you as someone that defends a company stealing from you.
Ball x Pit any good?
>>729303568Switch 2 is stronger than deck.>>729336924Eh. It's fine if you have autism. But it's a shallow combo of several boring systems, that combine to be... Fine.
>>729336192I posted Nintendo themselves saying they will take away your games.. The other guy posted a link (from the UK lmao) about PlayStation having some bug or whatever.I am still waiting on links about Steam doing something similar though. >>729335445this post said they did. Or was this just another poor attempt at defending Nintendo?
>>729335520>The only one I've played before was world of final fantasy and that was way back in 2016Can you tell me about it? Been interested in getting it on my own Switch too.
>>729336892>Except you no longer have full access to it.Except you do, you can still access the complete game. That's what access means.Everything else you said is irrelevant because it has nothing to do with rendering the game inaccessible.>You should be allowed to use it for whatever you want.You... Can? You can use that storage however you please. You could even hack it if you want.>But because Nintendo took away ownership you can't anymore.What? Now you're saying Nintendo took the console itself away?>You should just have access to your license if you bought it.You do which is why you can't explain how Nintendo has taken away access to something you can access regardless of the ability to download new games or redownload old ones.>With Steam for example I can get an entirely new computer log into Steam and I would have access to all the games I bought.Now here's the thing, let's say steam went bust tomorrow and you couldn't download any new games or redownload. You were just stuck with all the games you bought.Would you say you no longer own those games?
>>729337079>I posted Nintendo themselves saying they will take away your gamesNo you didn't. You posted Nintendo saying that the ability to redownload will be removed some time in the future. There's nothing on that page about Nintendo deleting games from your system.
>>729336018Fatlus games like Persona 3-5, SMT V Vengeance, RaidouRomancing SaGa 2 is another RPG

How does Alan Woke 1 run on switch 2?
>>729326246>he doesn't play switch at the desklmao @ ur life
>>729337916Why would you want to play that shit in general?
>>729337467>Except you do, you can still access the complete game. That's what access means.Everything else you said is irrelevant because it has nothing to do with rendering the game inaccessible.No access to the game means access to also use that game on other Wiis. Having it only be playable on a single wii isn't having full access to it.>You... Can? You can use that storage however you please. You could even hack it if you want.Nope you can not touch the game that's on there. If you remove that it's gone forever.>Now here's the thing, let's say steam went bust tomorrow and you couldn't download any new games or redownload. You were just stuck with all the games you bought.Would you say you no longer own those games?Yes I fucking would you retard. I am not some gay little cuck fanboy of Steam like you are with Nintendo. If Steam one day just went away and just said ''fuck you you can't redownload the games you bought'' Then they would also have taken away ownership of all my games. And I wouldn't even try to defend their actions. However Steam hasn't done that yet whereas Nintendo has.
>>729337740>To be fair, with the servers shutdown, the game would have been impossible to play anyways.It's still bullshit Steam allows games like that on their storefront though. Still not exactly the same as what Nintendo has done. Most of their games were single player.
>>729336018Not on sale, but Inazuma Eleven Victory Road is great, Soccer JRPG with A LOT of autismPokemon Dragon Ball Soccer
>>729336403Looking at Rabbids does soul damage to me
>>729338327Personally the Mario and Rabbids Rabbids are the best iteration of those cunts and I do wish that going forward Ubi just uses them in the way that game doesMating Press Rabbid Rosalina btw
How is the Switch version of ASTLIBRA? any major issues like bad performance or censorship?
>>729338031>No access to the game means access to also use that game on other WiisNo, no it doesn't. It has absolutely nothing to do with that. Transferring and accessing are two entirely different things.I don't even know how you would make that mistake unless your language just has one word for both.>Nope you can not touch the game that's on there.If that were the case then you wouldn't be able to play on it offline but that's not the case, Nintendo didn't have DRM like that on the Wii meaning that game won't ever be taken away from you regardless of what they're doing with the store.>Then they would also have taken away ownership of all my games. Then believe it or not you're a retard and even contradicted yourself since you can still move the files to a new PC.Clearly you don't have any kind of strict definition for any of this and will just say whatever you think will help your argument in the moment.Sad.
>>729338287Imagine defending steam taking away your games like people wouldn't make their own servers like they did with the crew.>Still not exactly the same as what Nintendo has done.You're right, it's worse because Nintendo hasn't removed any games from anyone's account.
>>729337667>Romancing SaGaso there seems to be many different versions. 1 is entirely missing (only a remake exists).2 and 3 have an original games and then remakeswhich ones do I buy if I want a first experience?
>>729336018Wait for a sale, or buy it off craigslist but Bananza is one of the most genuinely fun games I've played in a long time.
>>729297456No one has said it yet cause they're fags, this game runs at a locked 60fps on Switch 2 compared to Switch 1. Buy it faggot
>>729295861>despite a majority of /v/ being Nintendo users firstNo wonder the board is garbage
>>729322974Yes, and a rock cock solid 60fpsIt's peak
>>729338574But you should be allowed to transfer your game. What if your Wii breaks? What if the memory get corrupted? That's a part of having access to it. >Then believe it or not you're a retard and even contradicted yourself since you can still move the files to a new PC.I never contradicted myself. You are the one trying to make it ok that a company took away your ownership of something you bought. Also IF Steam were to ever pull a stunt like that I would never ever buy something from them ever again same as with Nintendo.>>729338662All they did was remove a game that doesn't even work anymore because the servers are gone. Also the very first thing I said was that it's bullshit which it clearly is. And who knows maybe if that die hard fanbase of ''Order of war: Challenge'' makes their own servers Steam will just reinstate that game.If you are ok with Nintendo taking away your digital Mario game you paid 70$ for then you are a pathetic cuck. And also a big reason gaming is in the state that it's in now.
>>729338397Eh, maybe I'll try it out (or a demo if there is one)
>>729336018Don’t listen to this faggot tendie >>729339031fetus game is one of the most expensive and boring tech demos this side of bore of the wild
It's so obvious when the macaco is sperging out and shitting up your thread because he just keeps posting the same shit, trying to get his retarded arguments and insults to stick.I'm guessing nintendo adults failed so now he's doing the "Nintendo is my friend" shtick
tendies don't have real saleswhat are they gonna buy anyway? mario, donkey kong, zelda and metroid again?
>>729339568>But you should be allowed to transfer your game. What if your Wii breaks? What if the memory get corrupted? That's a part of having access to it.That has nothing to do with Nintendo removing access, id you break your wii then YOU were the one who removed your access via destruction.What you're doing is equivalent to asking for a discontinued product because you broke it and feel entitled to a new one. That said just fucking pirate and access all of the games saves that way.>I never contradicted myselfYou did, by your own logic if steam shut down and didn't allow you to redownload you should still consider it owning your games because you can still transfer them and that's something you doubled down on in this post too.>You are the one trying to make it ok that a company took away your ownership of something you bought. I don't know about you but none of my wii games are gone, they're still saved to it and there's nothing Nintendo can do to change that unless you can prove otherwise.>Also IF Steam were to ever pull a stunt like that I would never ever buy something from them ever again same as with Nintendo.Funny, because that conversation you're having with the other anon where valve literally removed a game from people's libraries you're actually defending them.
I only buy physical Nintendo shit. Is the sale purely digital?
>>729340220>Is the sale purely digital?basically. most physical stores or online stores for physical games don't have the best games on sale at all. anything thats on sale is just mostly garbage like FIFA etc.
>>729339568>All they did was remove a game that doesn't even work anymore because the servers are goneSo? Do you know how many games have had their servers shut down and are still in people's libraries? There's no justification for taking it away because like I said fan servers are a thing.>And who knows maybe if that die hard fanbase of ''Order of war: Challenge'' makes their own servers Steam will just reinstate that game.Not how that works by the way, once it's gone it's gone. Even if the publisher were to allow them to bring it back records of their purchases were deleted, they'd have to buy it again.>If you are ok with Nintendo taking away your digital Mario game you paid 70$ Provide one, just one, example of Nintendo removing a game from people's libraries.Even games that were removed from the eshop like meme run were still untouched.
>>729320575Nope, I wait for the sale to end before buying like a good goy
>>729340220Most Nintendo 2 physical games are just a card key to download it from the eshop anyways.
Its kinda weird that Dark Souls 1 is on Switch (with inverted controls you can't change) but not any other From Software games.I wouldn't mind playing Dark Souls 3 in my lap.
>>729340515Well, elden ring is coming but I'd like ds2. It's my least played souls game b and I never played the dlc.
>>729340165>What you're doing is equivalent to asking for a discontinued product because you broke it and feel entitled to a new one.I feel entitled to something I fucking paid money for. Like a digital license to a game. You keep trying to make these weird equivalents but those aren't remotely the same. I paid for a license to a game therefor I should have full access to that game forever (or at least more than around 10 years like with the Wii).>You did, by your own logic if steam shut down and didn't allow you to redownload you should still consider it owning your games because you can still transfer them and that's something you doubled down on in this post too.That's only doable on PC though. Not as much on a Wii. It still would make me never buy a Valve product ever again though.>Funny, because that conversation you're having with the other anon where valve literally removed a game from people's libraries you're actually defending them.Steam technically never removed that game. They removed a launcher. Square is the one that removed the servers. I did however say it was bullshit from the beginning. You are the only one defending a shitty company.>That said just fucking pirate and access all of the games saves that way.This is the first time you said something that wasn't retarded. You should just indeed just pirate everything ESPECIALLY Nintendo since they'll take ownership away from you anyways. This was a good way to end this convo. Glad we finally agree.
>>729341107Remember when Nintendo banned someone for buying a used game and he had to beg for permission to use his switch again?God I’m so glad they’re my friends.
>>729337280From what I remember it was a turn based rpg where you collected monsters. You had two characters who would each have their own two monsters you would equip to them. The characters stats and skills would change depending on what monsters you gave them. You would find different final fantasy protagonists while playing the story and you would unlock them as special attacks. I remember there being a battleship minigame tooVery neat game but I think a lot of westerners were off put by the chibi artstyle, it's very cutesy (eg. the monsters in your team would sit on the human character's head during battles)
>>729335520Portal is objectively great. Inscryption is interesting but I didn't enjoy it much, it's a different take on deck builder. Ball x Pit is a combination of various mediocre systems to make an OK whole. If you like Vampire Survivors it's decent but it's very much an autism/gambling game. Battle Network is retrokino but feels old. Unicorn Overlord is a new take on Tactics Ogre gameplay, it's fine but overstays its welcome and once it "clicks" you're either done, or committed to watching 15 minutes of your units rolling after you attack move directly to objective. RDR is GTA:Wild West, and Rogue Legacy 2 is kind of a shitty platformer roguelite leaning heavily upon incremental progression.They're all OK if they're what you're looking for, but none of them would be missed on your death bed.
>>729341107>Like a digital license to a game.Which you own and nothing can take that away from you.That's the whole point, removing the ability to redownload doesn't take that licence away from you because you can still play the game.>You keep trying to make these weird equivalents but those aren't remotely the sameLook, you're just call everything weird or whatever strange copes you have for the day but the point is that nothing is being taken away just because you can't redownload. You'll still have that game saved to the system and you still have full access to it. >That's only doable on PC though. It's almost as if that point was about pc. The point is that you're changing your definitions based on how well your argument is going. >Steam technically never removed that game. They removed a launcher. And that's another consession you're making to defend steam. No matter how you spin it something was forcibly removed from player's libraries, that's the important part. >Glad we finally agree. Well at least you admitted you were wrong finally. Took you long enough.
How's the DLC content that comes with One Piece Pirate Warrior 4? Is it just characters?

>>729341474Thanks for the info, pretty interested in it, I have been craving some lighthearted games recently, so this sound right up my current alley.
There's a bundle for the three HD Remakes of Dragon QuestAre they worth the price? I liked XI
>>729341419No.I do remember when he tried to use his copy after dumping it online and then acted like a victim.

>>729341972What does Bamco have to do with this?
>>729341747im considering buying it too now that you mentioned it.all 3 remakes are very highly praised in steam reviews and each game is easily tons of hours of gameplay.if you liked XI, youll love the remakes. Id say go for it.
I got these. Beat Ghost Mini which is a cute and very short metroidvania, doesn't over stay its welcome but it isn't special as well. Kero Blaster I beat normal and will eventually beat the harder mode. Didn't get to play Yars Recharged yet, but heard great things about it. Metro Quester Osaka is a really good JRPG. Managing your daily resources to move, scavenge, and make materials during battle is great. Finding items is fun as well.If you haven't played Vividlope, check it out now. It is a great twist on the game Q*bert. You walk over tiles to change their colors to complete a level, but you have items to combat enemies that spawn, can jump, and a great rank system. It also looks like a long lost Dreamcast/PS2 game. Just check it out.>>729338664Depends. Seems to be most new comers to the series like the Romancing SaGa 2 Revenge of the Seven remake. Personally I think Romancing SaGa 2 Remastered is absolutely fine, but then again I've only played that version. Romancing SaGa Minstrel Song is a phenomenal RPG and remake in general. It adds in later SaGa mechanics like sparking skills, combo attacks, field skills, regenerative battle resources, among many other things as a greatest hits kind of game on the chasis of the old game. Kawazu *may* eventually release a Romancing SaGa remaster based on the Super Famicom iteration, but don't expect it anytime soon since Unlimited Saga remastered/remake will come out. That is just in regards of the Romancing SaGa trilogy and not the other entries of the series.

>>729346475The Switch 2 is just leagues better than the Switch and feels like an actual handheld than the cheap plastic Switch. I do expect the Game Key Cards to die out since their selling poorly. Cyberpunk really destroyed it.
