>Nintendo are now the champions of affordable gamingwhat the hell changed?
you mean the bargain bin?
>>738408467Guarantee StarFox and Splatoon outsell SAAAAROS and Maraslop.
>>738408558im sure they will, nintendo fans have no standards
>>738408367>nowliterally always.
>>738408689Saaar please redeem the SAAROS sir!
>>738408367The Mario Tennis game on Switch 2 scared them bad
What? It's not evil? Did they bring Reggie back or something?
>>738408367Nobody over the mental age of 18 gives a shit about those games
>>738408367post pokopia and and the yoshi game
>>738408367>Nintendo helping me afford things by making games I don't want to buy for a whole generationWhat a bunch of nice guys.
>>738408904>Europoor
>>738409032We love the Snoy cock in Europe. Please understand!
Only thing they've put out for switch 2 that I'm remotely interested in is the sf64 remake. It's actually reasonably priced. Maybe when I get a switch 2 years and years down the line I'll pick it up.
>>738409103Damn, sucks to be poor. Keep slopping up shit on Steam and Snoy Stations in the meantime I guess
>>738408367nothing, nintendo has always been that based.
>>738408367>Nintendo are now the champions of affordable gamingAlways has been. They had cheaper games during the entire NS1 gen and the cheapest console with the best exclusives. NS2 gen will be the same
>>738409165Schizo
>>738408367They're desperate.
>>738409032
>>738409165I'm not poor I just don't really think the switch 2 is worth investing in currently. I have a switch 1 and there's literally only 1 game that the switch 2 has that I can't play, that's interesting to me right now. It really launched way too early.
>>738408367These games would cost $10 on Steam at the most if an indie dev made them. Frankly, the insulting Star Fox demake isn't even worth $0.
>>738408689>to shit on Nintendo, I will even defend Marathon and SAROSimagine being such a disingenuous retard lol
They know these games won't sell millions just on name alone. AAA games like a new 3D Mario, new Pokemon, new Zelda, etc., those will still be priced at $70 or $80.
>>738408367It costs $250-350+ to get a PS5 or Xbox. Or $500-800+ for decent PC. Yeah, I'd say they're leading affordable gaming alright.
>>738409376Splatoon games are averaging 10 million+ in sales anon. StarFox 64 has sold 5 million copies.
>>738408367Anyone could tell Starfox was not going to fly off the shelves for 70 bucks
>>738408367>Buying download only trash and filling up your $300 1TB storagelmao
>>738409376It's pretty unlikely that Splatoon Raiders doesn't sell multiple millions, the lowest selling game in the series still managed ~5m
>>738409346Why does Nintendo hate eastern and southern Europe?
>>738409356>im not poor
>>738409642Because they're Sony cucks probably.
>>738408367None of those games would be above $15 if they released on steam
>>7384085584 dogshit games that only homosexuals would consider playing
>>738408367The writing was on the wall with the last Mario Tennis and they know that even their fanbase will get tired of them releasing half-finished pieces of shit for $70-$80
>>738409661I don't really care about your selfies, nigger.
>>738408367>B tier games at near AAA pricing>affordablelmao
>>738408367You care about prices? You're poor and brown LOL
>>738409701>Duuuude I have a PC and spent thousands to play porn games and indie shit
>Rhythm heaven>Released at the each systems lifecycle?Why tf do they keep doing that?We've been waiting for that series to come for almost 10 years.
>>738409719>only homosexuals get to play the best and coolest shooter franchise since Quakedamn we just keep winning huh
>>738409356You just have shit taste
>>738409358Calm down, your letting your snoytranny show up. You should go back to the trooncord to get up to date trannyposts.
>>738409701>$15that's about the right price for a game you're going to add to your steam library and never play once in your life just so gaben can buy another yacht. Switch owners actually play videogames so the inherent value is higher.
>>738409807Oh I almost forgot it is a Switch game and not a Switch 2 gameGuess I'll pirate itIt's free real estateSee you in 2036 for the next one (This will probably be the last entry in the series though due to low sales)
>digital prices on mid tier gamesWho cares. When they drop a new Mario or Zelda for $50 physical I'll be impressed.
>>738408367Nintendo would charge full price if they knew they could get away with it
>>738409746cared enough to reply, autist
>>73840836750 for star fox is criminal, especially since 64 is playable on NSO
>>738410106I care about the fact you have no point, and are shitting up the thread by being a nigger. I don't want to see your ugly gorilla paws.
>>738409760caring about tariffs? You're greedy and green LOL
>>738409642You don’t?
>>738410171nice fanfiction, you have no point because you're retarded, curb your retardation, autist

>>738408467that's sony.
>>738408367You know this is anticonsumer according to snoys, right?
>>738409752>same price as old generationIt really sucks that daddy doesn't buy your games anymore, maybe get a job Timmy.
>>738410075>company would charge as much money as people would payno shit, dumbass
>>738408367>nintendo announces at switch 2 launch they will use variable pricing>they do it>people act surprised
>>738408367They realized that selling every game for 90 dollars and never dropping the price even slightly (or having sales on the digital store) was only hurting them
>>738409840>>only homosexuals get to play the best and coolest shooter franchise since QuakeImagine having this opinion as a grown ass man lol. Pathetic. There have been so many shooter franchises that have come out since 1996 that have mogged the fuck out of Splatroon.
>>738409363Marathon is a great game though, I'm sorry you only ever owned Nintendo as your gaming platform
>>738408367Nintendo is just based like that.But really>Nintendo sees Sony and MS's greed>Hey, we can make more money by keeping things affordable and not pricing out millions of peopleThey are one of the few corpos in vidya not blinded by short term profits
>>738410678The ink mechanic is a better shooter innovation than anything in the past 20 years, and you won’t be able to refute it. Look forward to your impotent seethe
>>738410598Nintendo does multiple eshop sales per year.>Back to '$90 games!' lie from a year agoAre you even trying?
>>738408558>consolewar in the year 2026When will you faggots learn all companies are shit ALL OF THEM. No company deserves your respect or loyalty.
>>738409719How exactly is Starfox a dog shit game?It's fucking identical to Starfox 64 with a fresh coat of paint. You can argue about the updated graphics all you want but mechanically and technically it looks fucking identical and they barely did anything to it beyond throw in some cutscenes.Or are you going to tell me one of the best games on the N64 was actually always shit and we just needed a cash grab remake to confirm that fact?
>>738410794You are a retarded worthless brown retard.
>>738410957you just looked in the mirror? We don't care about your personal monologues
>>738410678>>738410918only homosexuals are cognitively equipped to appreciate good and novel game mechanics
>>738410918>The ink mechanic is a better shooter innovation than anything in the past 20 yearsNo other franchise has bothered to use it because it's a shitty gimmick that got stale as seasonal event filler for bigger shooter franchises. Prime Halo, prime Black Ops, prime Half Life, CSGO, prime GOW, hell even launch Overwatch and Fortnite are better than Splatroon and had more influence over the industry than Shitendo's toddler turd nugget.
>>738411047>n-no u!Pathetic.
>>738408367>star foxVery short game(10 hours to full clear, 1 hour if you one and done it). With that in mind, $50 is still too much.>rhythm heavenMost likely a very short game, we'll have to wait and see.>splatoon raidersI have no idea what the length for this will be, there's rumors that it started as Splatoon 3 DLC though so $50 for DLC isn't exactly the greatest deal if they didn't really expand on it.
>>738411206>halo>cod>csgo>GOW>Overwatch>fortniteWhat an absolute train wreck of a post. Make your bait more believable next time.
>>738409642Don't they only play FIFA?
>>738411405poorfag post
>>738411206>unable to name a single better mechaniclmao, as I predicted. And what a retarded argument lol. The ink is core to the franchise’s identity. You’ll look like an imposter aping it, like that shitty square foam game. And it’s too rooted in the visual design language, map design, mechanics, balance, etc. No shit those modes were temporary, they could only copy the superficial aspects of the mechanic. Not the incorporation of stealth, map control, reloading, health regen, special build, movement, cooperation, etc. Retard lol
>>738409642I don't know about south, but the Nintendo is extremely unpopular in eastern Europe compared to PC and PS.
>>738411405>rumors it started as a dlc>”le colors on the promotional art”you’re dumb as fuck if you entertain that thought. And 3’s campaign was 8+ hours. This will definitely match or exceed that. And that’s what AAA shit like RE9 runs, but $20 cheaper
Their third party games also have smaller file sizes compared to other versions. Pragmata is only 13gb on Switch compared to 40gb on PC. RE9 is also only 29gb on Switch 2. And best of all, FF7 Rebirth is confirmed to be 42gb smaller compared to other versions. They might not be the cheapest, but it's a fair trade off for games that run slightly worse. Nintendo should advertise this more for third party ports instead of just saying they exist. File size is a big factor for people buying digital, especially if the game is a key card.
>>738411853>8 hour game for $50Still not a great value. RE9 is a bad value proposition at full price but will be better once it price drops to $10-$20 like the other games in the series. Resident Evil and Monster Hunter games having the same MSRP is silly.
>>738410794>$450 console >$100 joycons >$90 “pro” controller >$125 dock (switch 2 prevents the use of “unauthorized” third party docks) >$80 Mario kart >botw is $70 on switch 2 (DOES NOT INCLUDE DLC)>totk is $80 on switch 2 >mario wonder is $80 on switch 2 (the visual upgrade is tied to a $20 dlc no one wants) >$10 “upgrade” packs for games like pokemon Z-A (it literally just allows you to increase the resolution and uncaps the framerate)I know you’re just shitposting but there are people who genuinely think like this and it never ceases to amaze me.
>>738411473All of those franchises in their prime were more popular and had more influence over the industry than Splatroon has for its ENTIRE existence. Game devs used CSGO and Overwatch as blueprints to create entire separate franchises. They use Splatoon as inspiration for a crappy seasonal event. Die mad about it.>>738411668>>unable to name a single better mechanicGravity gun in Half Life, ultimate abilities from Overwatch, building from Fortnite. All borrowed by different franchises and used in their gameplay foundation, unlike the shitty ink gimmick.>You’ll look like an imposter aping it, like that shitty square foam game. Right, that's why nobody who's exposed to the gimmick when it's borrowed for seasonal events wants it to come back as a dedicated mode. Sure dude.>Not the incorporation of stealth, map control, reloading, health regen, special build, movement, cooperation, etc. The people who primarily play Splatoon are literal 10 year olds and tranny pedophiles. Your game is not nearly as deep as you think it is faggot.
>>738412278Only sensible post iit
>>738411932>I just wait a year to buy every gameJust buy and resell the game if you’re dirt poor. It doesn’t depreciate like a car off the lot like other publishers’ games do
>>738412401I don't resell games, I keep them. Nice try though, Gamestop!
>one minute
>>738408367Nintendo listening to their old time rival.
>>738408558I don't want any of these games.
>>738409103bananza is pretty good tbqh. better than odyssey in most ways
>>738412070don't forgot how they sold FR&LG separately for 25$ with little to no improvements but some removed features
>>738408367mario tennis flopped causing reasonably priced games

>>738412352when being honest with ourselves, that post looks like nonsense thinking <popular game> originated their conceptsit's not worth reading in its entirety when it is foundationally incorrect so early
>>738412278>gravity gun >within the last 20 years>”the demographic for splatoon means the mechanics are shallow”>cites overwatch and fortniteyou’re actually far dumber than I imagined, it’s remarkable. It’s cute how you think a basic explanation of the mechanic is “deep”, yet can’t wrestle with the fact that these other games incorporate it entirely superficially. Cute samefag tho
>>738412070it's ok when sony, microsoft and steam do it thought right?
>>738408367>DigitalNow show how much it costs for a physical release
>>738408367Kirby's Air Riders and Mario Tennis Fever flopping, plus Donkey Kong Bananza having no legs. I'd also be curious to see how Mario Kart World's momentum holds up post-bundle.
>>738411668>And it’s too rooted in the visual design language, map design, mechanics, balance, etc. No shit those modes were temporary, they could only copy the superficial aspects of the mechanic. Not the incorporation of stealth, map control, reloading, health regen, special build, movement, cooperation, etc.
>>738412070>switch 2 prevents the use of “unauthorized” third party docksdidn't a bunch of third party switch 1 docks cause problems because they were cheap pieces of shit? out of all the things to complain about, this one seems pretty reasonable
>>738412950Air Riders sold within expectations since it was Sakurai's passion project before returning to the Smash mines. It was never going to do gangbusters. Mario Tennis and Metroid Prime 4 definitely spooked them.
>>738412649>Splatoon is more alive than faggy FPS "games"You know for a fact that if Nintendo released player counts (which they should to btfo you faggots forever lol) it would be absolutely raped by other shooter franchises. Nobody cares about Splatoon 3 besides your tiny echochamber porn threads.
>10 dollar shovelware and remakes being marked at 50 dollars is now good because sony bad or somethingPathetic. Consolegroids really are racing to the bottom.
>>738413047I’m sorry, you seem to be retarded, so let me explain. Those game would need to redesign their core mechanics to properly introduce an “ink” mode. They won’t so that, just as splatoon wouldn’t do the opposite. It has nothing to do with the demographic of the game. Though seeing as you have stunted mental faculties to not understand that, I’m sure the innovative shooters you’re suggesting don’t require much brainpower
>>738413074Prime 4's issue didn't come from its pricetag, it was that it took an ungodly amount of time and a (likely) wildly disproportionate amount of money for Metroid standards, only for Nintendo themselves to trip it up out of the gate by revealing the barren desert and a taste of the tonedeaf FedPCs' dialogue just weeks before release.
>>738413283i'm sure you've posted about saaros' 80 dollar price tag
>>738413283>post a gif from a “collect 10 boar asses” padded gameThey should have paid me for playing that slop
>>738413338All AAA games are dogshit. Indies are the future.>>738413432Filtered.
>>738413050It was a two-sided issue. A lot of the early third party docks did indeed cheap out, but Nintendo also cocked up and didn't fully adhere to USB-C power standards with the Switch despite using the standard physical port.
>>738413338Why would someone post about a fake pricetag?
>>738413254LAH MAO what? Get fuckin' real, dude, those games are far more dead than Freddie fucking Mercury, you retard, they're not fuckin' doing ANY numbers.
>>738413338did you miss everyone complaining about returnal's $70 price tag years ago?
>>738413914TF2 is still more active than Splatoon. Hell, it's outlived most shooters.
>>738409032You kneel to Israel haha
>>738414015>TF2Nobody fuckin' cares for that game, retard. Only faggots and bots play that shit, everyone's moved the fuck on.
>>738408367surely fire emblem won't be $70 right???
>>738413498You can play indies on consoles.
>>738413050My problem with this is it really isn’t any of Nintendos business what I use as a dock, if I break my system that’s on me. The primary purpose of this shit is to force me to buy one of their super expensive docks (twice the price of a steam deck dock) if I want a second dock for my other tv.
>>738408367Tr*mp lost
>>738414145>fire emblemNobody fuckin' cares about Weeb Chess, shitbag.
>>738412278>popularity = qualityfortnite is the best shooter and skyrim is the best rpg and all their mechanics are the peaks of their genres
>>738414227What’s the problem? I bought a cheap second dock and have had no issues. There’s nod hdr, which is lame, but what can you do
$60 for a 2d yoshi game
>>738414145If Donkey Kong couldn't hack it at $70 and they already decided to launch Splatoon at $50/60, there's no way in hell Fire Emblem will be $70/80.
>>73840836750 bucks for the third remake of a 35 year old game isn’t that good anon.
>>738414130;)
>>738414385Nobody. Cares. Lah mao.
>>738414145Probably $60/$70. $60 for a remake of a 1 hour long game is really fucking insane and I don't think people appreciate just how short Star Fox 64 is.
>>738414286Barring pokopia and that ocarina remake, it'll be nintendo's best selling game this year tho. You're underestimating how rabid three houses secondaries are.
>>738414474It's for babby retard weebs that's too fuckin' niche, fuckbag, no matter how rabid these Weeb Chess faggots are and how loud they get uppity, it'll never be legitimately loved by anyone but the tiniest fuckin' minority.
>>738414474They aren't Secondaries if they bought and played the games dumbass, they're just new fans.
>>738414474Raiders will outsell it by double or more
>>738414439It's actually worse than you'd think, since it doesn't look like they added any new gameplay content, other than tranny shit like achievements and cutscenes. It's quite literally FF7 remake all over again, where they stretch the game out with filler.
>>738414474Duskbloods.
>>738414474You're underestimating how much it helped for TH to release on a system that already had mainline Mario, Zelda, Splatoon, and Pokémon on it. Plus Smash.
>>738414915Nintendo games have long tails so that will sort itself out eventually. People buy games that are a few years old once they get a system later in life.
>>738414790>>738414851forgot about splatoon and duskbloods>>738414630I'll correct myself then. they're fire emblem secondaries. Happy now?
>>738414227>it really isn’t any of Nintendos business what I use as a dock, if I break my system that’s on meI mean come on, you know most consumers aren't gonna think that way. They're gonna call up Nintendo support and yell "my Switch broke, what will you do about it??"
>>738414795They added a challenge mode and objective based 4v4 online.
>>738415506Low quality content that indie game would've put into their game for free? Sorry, I fail to see how that justifies the price tag.
The 4v4 actually looks really fun, it’s somewhat convincing me to get it, but ai’ll wait to see how it pans out
>>738415506don't try to argue with that retarded motherfucker.
>>738408367>oh fuck we dont have shit ready for switch 2>lets shit out some quick budget titles to pad our release calendar
>>738415619>le mythical amorphous indie monoliththis shit is so dumb. Quit talking in vapid generalities
>>738415705Who, the one trying to justify a 50 dollar remake of an hour long game? It is pretty retarded, no argument.
>>738415759Indies like Terraria have literally added this content, for free, for 15 years. And they never charged a penny for it. For 99 cents you bought access to a game and nearly 2 decades of additional, free content.What's Nintendo's excuse?
>asset flip>by the numbers remake>low budget proven formula franchisewoah... Nintendo... is le cheap?
>>738415785suck my asshole, retard.in a few hours you will be raging and crying thanks to the Nintendo report.
>>738411786Nintendo never had official distribution and support in eastern eu it still doesnt in many countries lol. If you had a store with electronics or vidya you had to do hoops and order Nintendo stuff from unofficial sources. Xbox started to push XboxLive and such like late 2011 but it was too late. Thats why these regions are PC and Snoy strongholds because Sony had marketing everywhere in EU not just in western part since first PlayStation.
Walmart has the first 2 PHYSICAL for the same price. Bullying works.
>>738409642They're Playstation people
>>738415892>OH YEAH? WELL NINTENDO MADE MONEY, I BET YOU SURE FEEL SILLYuhhh, ok?
>>738415860>literally added this content>completely incomparable game that did not add vs modesyou’re wasting your own time being this stupid
>>738416018discussing shit with you is literally worthless.DOGSHIT has more value than the string of shit you write 24/7.Don't dare to reply to me again, motherfucker.
>>738412070>>$450 console>>$100 joycons>>$125 dock (switch 2 prevents the use of “unauthorized” third party docks)>>$80 Mario kartAnd all of that cost $500.>>$90 “pro” controllerBest and cheapest 1st party controller.You might actually be braindead (par of the course for a Snoy), but I said "Nintendo affordable compared to Sony and MS's $600-$900 consoles, $100 a year online subscriptions, $200 "pro" controllers that drift after a week, $100 disc drives sold separately, $30 vertical stands and $80 games about jeets and queers"
>>738416056>the games are completely incomparable>Nintendo HAS to charge 50 dollars because..... they just have to, okay?!>they're a tiny indie company, pls understand
>>738416182>You might actually be braindeadpeople who don't understand the word of the meaning relative are definitely braindead, up there with people who don't understand generalizations
>>738416154>discussing shit with you is worthless>says the guy whose only value in a discussion is gloating over sales and metacritic scores
>>738416209>strawman sperghow much time every day you spend doing shit like this?
>>738416303You still haven't justified the insanely high price tag. Since Nintendo makes record profits every day, why couldn't this remake be priced around 20 dollars or maybe even 10 dollars? What the hell are they wasting money on? Content that indie devs regularly add into their games for free? Unnecessary and disgusting graphics that do nothing but clutter the screen? Cinematics that make it feel like you're playing Uncharted or God of Soi?I thought Nintendo was about gameplay. WTF is this obsession with graphics and storytelling? Any Nintendo fan worth their salt should be demanding the removal of the excess graphics and the story, as they're nothing but clutter getting in the way of the gameplay.
>>738415619You said there was no nee gameplay content, fullstop. IDGAF, stop spreading misinfo.
>>738416578That's like saying that the Ratchet and Clank reboot is good because there's technically "new" stuff, despite it being a POS that ruined the vision of the original. If we're arguing semantics, then I guess there's new content if you count that rock in the level that has 500 extra polygons. Doesn't make the game better, though.
Does switch require you to still "install" the game even if you buy the physical version like PS5 does?
>>738416748What did I just say? YOU said>no new gameplay contentAnd that was wrong. That's it.
>>738416241GG
>>738416753only if its a game key card, which first party nintendo stuff isnt (except for pokeshit)
>>738416753Real physical doesn’t. Game keycards do, and it’s a download from the internet. Still lets you resell them though, so better than a code for that purpose
>>738416753Depends. Switch 1 games have lots of daily one patches but will boot without them generally. Switch 1 games on Switch 2 have to download a compatibility patch. Pikmin 3's first Switch 2 patch is so broken and horrible that the system won't even let you boot it now without downloading the newer one.
>>738408367But sloptubers told me Nintendo was worse than Satan. What happened? Was I lied to?!
>>738416835Okay. The ""new additions"" are shit. A lazily slapped on multiplayer does not justify 50 dollars.
>>738409642>Why does Nintendo hate eastern and southern Europe?Poor countries that can't afford their overpriced games anyways, probably the cost of translating the texts is greater than the amount of sales it'll get, plus, every country has its own language, so they'd have to translate it to like 20 different language which isn't worth it, at best they could do russian since a lot of post soviet union people know it and could land them some sales.
>>738410431Don't see the point of spending $40+ on a video game when I can still play the 2000 games I already own and still enjoy.
>>738416994>Okay. The ""new additions""Remove the quotes. Stop trying.
>>738416753Physical? No. Actually saw some faggot here crying about GKC being bad because they take up storage space while PS5 doesn't.Snoys on this board actually fight to defend Sony's honor while not owning their consoles and being completely unaware of mandatory installs for the past 13 years.
>>738416182>SNOY SNOY SNOY You niggers use Sony as a deflection every time someone brings up valid criticism and I’m sick of it. Compared to the previous Nintendo is gouging the fuck out of people. The switch 2 pro controller adds 2 grip buttons but is otherwise the same exact shit except it’s $20 more because…uhhhhh, I guess those 2 extra buttons must be really fancy. Also funny how you didnt acknowledge how fucking absurd it is nintendo is charging $70 for an 8 year old game and can’t even have decency to give you the DLC. You can still like Nintendo games while saying this pricing is bullshit, they aren’t mutually exclusive things>but Sony does it!That’s like shitting on the floor and going “but the dog does it!” Have some standards, Christ.
>>738417043see>>738417026The """""""new additions""""""" are not worth the cost. They are lazy filler at best. Besides, the original is still there, why touch this modern slop? When did Nintendo games stop being evergreen classics? Why do they need to be replaced?
>>738417026Get yourself that 10000 in 1 chink NES knockoff, then.
>>738412824>steamYou fags can try this every time and it doesn't work. Steam is and facilitates way more affordable games and ways to play them than anything Nintendo has ever done. Nintendo charges you for shit Steam offers for free.
>>738408558>No but Snoy!Lol
>>738417209I own a raspberry pi that i bought for $5 already. Why do I need another one?
>>738416753For gkc yeah. And a lot of games have day one patches or require you to be on a certain up to date switch version.
>>738409165>Nintendo is affordable >Haha you can't afford itPick a fucking lane you inbred schizo
>>738417116Key difference here, a ps5 game requires an install but it can still be done offline. If you pop demons souls into a ps5 without internet it will install and play just fine, GKCs require internet because ultimately they’re just a CD key. Sony also doesn’t have any ability to remotely disable the ps5 disc but Nintendo has the ability to disable a GKC, which they say they have the right to in their TOS.
>>738417221One point that never gets brought up enough is that steam is really poignant about backwards compatibility. the Switch can't even play WiiU and 3DS titles you bought on the eshop, despite all three consoles sharing a platform.Sony doesn't even let you play PSN games you bought on the PS3, even if you linked the account on your PS4.My steam games from 2012 still work on my modern PC, without having to rebuy them. AND I don't have to keep my old PC parts around for verification.
>>738417208IDC. You already admitted it's new content. Now stay like that.
>>738410761Funny post if you weren't suffering from battered wife syndrome. Have some goddamn standards, bunglecuck.

>>738408689Sony fans don't either.
>>738409719but enough about sonys entire output from the last 6 years
>>738417191Negro. My post you got so assmad about was saying Nintendo is more affordable than Sony and MS. So, yeah. Comparing them to Sony and MS is the whole fucking point, isn't it? Retard.>SNOY SNOY SNOYI wonder who would go all nuclear meltdown over those 4 letters...
>>738417357There are games on steam that technically don't work on a modern OS without a 3rd party patch.
>>738417328Sony will kill your disc drive instead.
>>738417446Shit new content. Yes?
>>738417191Nta. 2 grip buttons, head phone hack, much better materials, buttons and sticks. You don’t know what you’re talking about. Have your meltdown, but that controller is great, and far better than its contemporaries. That shouldn’t assblast you
>>738417496How will they do that if the console is offline?
>>738408467Kek, got em. FPBP
>>738417328He didn't ask about any of that, did he? He asked about forced installs of physical games which doesn't happen on physical games on Switch 2.
>>738417548That's pretty good, though did they fix the crummy D-Pad? That was my only problem with the original Pro Controller
>>738417486It's a good thing you're allowed to use third party patches in those rare cases. Try that on the Switch or PS5, and you get your account banned for unauthorized modifications.
$50 for a 1 hour game and, damn what a bargain
>>738412070>>$125 dock (switch 2 prevents the use of “unauthorized” third party docks) It comes with a dock, you retard. Why would you buy a second one?
>>738412278>Gravity gun in Half LifeFun ability, isn't anywhere near as central to the game's design as any of the other mechanics mentioned. In fact, it's arguably underutilised. >Ultimates from OverwatchThey're a rough and ready way to differentiate diffeerent chars from one another, but I felt they pigeonholed each character more than I'd have liked.>Fortnite buildingHonestly haven't played enough Fortnite to comment. Definitely seems integral to how that game plays, though.
>>738417619I’ve heard better, but not “fixed.” Dont know from experience. I use the joycons for dpad heavy games. I like separate buttons. Easier for single inputs
>>738408367>mfw Root hasn't gone on sale for almost two years nowhttps://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/root-switch/I just want to play when nobody wants to bother setting up the real board game
>>738416182>cheapest 1st party controllerNope.
>>738417636Don't you know? You also have to pay for electricity, a TV, a house... Why is Nintendo so greedy?
>>738412623Because I don't want another remake of Star Fox 64 for the THIRD time?
>>738417562You can't even pair the drive for a fucking PRO model without going online first. What's professional about that, huh? From there, it's a simple matter to have a cert with an expiration date, mandating another phone-home.
>>738409902Tranny troon tranny troon tranny troonYou faggots are obsesed maybe jerk off to before you come here jfc.
>>738417625And console bricked with internet access shut off.But at least they totally own their console and games... right? Right...?
>>738408367>Sony and Microsoft raise the price of their subscription service and consoles>Nintendo investors have been on Nintendo's ass to raise the price of the Switch 2 since everyone else is doing it>Ignores them>Proceeds to announce games will have variable pricing leading to $50 games in generation where games cost $70-$80>Major retailers don't want physical copies just sitting so they drop the price of the physical copies to $50 to match digitalWho knew Nintendo could be this based in the year 2026?
>>738417720Best AND cheapest.Regular PS5 and Xbox controllers have less features, worse battery life and drift out of the ass.
>>738417636I have two TVs, maybe I want to play on the other TV without having to unplug my dock and move it. Maybe I want to go on a trip and bring a smaller dock with me. Why should it matter WHY I want a second dock, all that matters is Nintendo put shit in their firmware that messes with my ability to use one.
>>738417793It’s really funny seeing the cope everyone put out about how this was a physical price increase and Splatoon Raiders would be $70
>>738414246>censoringoof, Trump won
>>738417793But anon! If you want 5 docks you'll have to pay $625! That's almost as much as a PS5!
>>738409642>mexican spanish>BR monkey portugueseHow did this even happen, and what's the difference between the European languages and the brownoid ones?Can they understand eachother when they speak? is it like an Australian communicating with a Britbong?
>>738408367Not even remotely close to how affordable PC games are. Also>digital on consoleYou fags are so screwed as Nintendo boils you frogs. We all know what they do with digital. Enjoy your rentals, surely that was worth the $10 off these games that should cost $20-30 at most.
>>738417821Fuck I guess if I want to use my PS5 on my other TV I have blow another $650 on another one to use it elsewhere too. Fucking Sonykikes
>>738417793>a 1 hour game with no gameplay content is 50 dollars>this is somehow great because at least it isn't 70 dollarsLiteral snoy logic right there. "at least we're better than the competition". And you're still nowhere within a stone's throw of indie pricing, which goes as low as 99 cents.
>>738417548>two grip buttons Already mentioned that, 8bitdo does that for $60 >better materials It’s the same materials >better sticks Objectively false, it uses the same sticks as the last one with the same stick drift issue. >headphone jack A ps5 controller has a headphone jack and costs $70 There’s no reason to charge $90 for this controller.
>>738417959when was the last time dark souls 3 went on sale for a reasonable price
>>738418031The ps5 isn’t a portable console. What a retarded thing to say. At least compare it to a portable like a steamdeck, which has an official dock at half the price and lets you use 3rd party docks no problem.
>>738418059Terraria, a far better game, goes on sale for 99 cents all the time. And it surpasses 99% of all Nintendo games by having better graphics, better storytelling, and better support via free DLC. Also, when you buy it via GOG, you own it forever with an offline installer. With consoles, you only get a rental piece of plastic that you don't own.
>>738418050reddit spacing retard, listing out all of the features doesn’t imply you didnt mention the back buttons. And you clearly haven’t touched the switch pro controllers: they feel completely different, and the sticks are far smoother on 2. And remind me, how long does the ps5 controller battery last?
>>738418059Dunno, I got it off humble for $1.5. But that's From's decision, not PC in general.
>>738418181You don’t know what Reddit spacing is
>1 hour gameplayWhere did this fanfic come from? The scratches on their padded walls.
>>738415427More importantly, the legal systems in several countries expect companies to retard proof their products.
>>738418059Please stop talking to that retard. His dialogue tree is too shallow for shitpost arguments to even be entertaining. He’s a poorfag malding over the existence of consoles generally. It’s a pointless discussion
>>738418243It’s a 1:1 remake of starfox 64 which you can beat in an hour.
>>738418243Based on the original game, which you could beat in under an hour. Even if you replay it multiple times, you'd get maybe 5 hours total. The remake plans on padding this with some shallow multiplayer segment and adding more cutscenes. 50 dollars pls
>>738418101The point is your original argument made no sense retard. There's no need for multiple docks like there's no need for multiple PS5's. If you want to use it on another TV you pick it up and move it to another TV like literally any other device. Portability isn't what were talking about here where talking about the home console experience
>>738418285You lost, look at you run lol
>>738418146>he had to talk about another gameYeah, yeah, you didn't bother answering my question, I'm not gonna bother, man.
>>738418239Don’t care about the technicalities of 4chan jargon, but cute whatabout
>>738418045>>>a 1 hour game with no gameplay content is 50 dollarsThe original 64 game took 10 hours to beat and it's adding new content, don't be disingenuous.
>>738418059Like, two weeks ago? It was half off for medieval fest. A few years back it was less than $10. Whens the last time Nintendo did a sale on Botw? Oh right not only have they never put the game on sale they increased the price for the new console.
>>738408367Doug bowser out
>>738418414If you really needed someone, no one would show up, would they?
>>738418416I wasn't even that poster. The guy you were responding to answered you here. >>7384182101.5 dollars seems like a good deal.>>738418467>the original took 10 hours to beatHAHAHAHAHMan, come on.
>>738418467>The original 64 game took 10 hours to beaOk now we're just lying. Starfox 64 3D was my first experience with Starfox and I beat it in one 5 hour sitting. I imagine more experienced people can easy beat it in 2 hours
>>738418538i know, i wasn't talking to you. i just wanted to talk shit about dark souls and it's dog shit pricing on steam.
>>738418285Waddle away, faggot.
>>738418582>>738418538>>HAHAHAHAHWoop I had a brain fart. It takes like 10 hours to 100%. Obviously a game like this is meant to be replayed, but sure, normally it'd be 2-5 hours
>>738408367>no sales tax includedlol
>>738418582100% i'd guess, and now with challenges and cutscenes it'll likely bump up to 15 or so hours
>>738418621>he didn't snag DS3 when it was 10 dollarslol
>>738418641Anon, same question >>738418530
>>738418404I gave you two different scenarios where you would want to have multiple docks. Again, IT SHOULD NOT MATTER why I want two docks, the only thing that matters here is I’m restricted from using the dock I want to use because of an arbitrary lockout. It’s clear Nintendo wants me to drop $125 on their dock if I want another. Comparing it to a ps5 is retarded because it’s an apples and oranges comparison, the switches entire gimmick is that you can easily move it around and dock it when you want a home console experience. A steamdeck is more comparable and in that department it blows the switch 2 out of the water on top of being more affordable and doesn’t have bullshit in the TOS that says they can remotely disable your console if it detects you modded it.
>>738418779>the playtime will be bumped up thanks to cutscenesHow? Wait.... are you guys implying that you don't skip the cutscenes? AKA the most boring normalfag parts of a game? wtf
>>738418803The anon who responded before you and you yourself are doing a very bad job of what you claim.
>>73841438547,500 botsSeriously, I cannot go 2 games without running into half the same people I did a week ago.
>>738418971Skill issue.
>>738418308>>738418312Same thing with Splatoon and Yoshi?
>>738418935Please answer the question honestly
>>738419128It is the honest answer, just not the answer you wanted. You could start now? Stop responding.
>>738419213I could start now, yes. See how I answered your question! It’s simple, when the answer isn’t painful to admit
>>738418404NTA, but what? If you don't want to have to unplug everything and move it back and forth all the time two docks makes sense. This shouldn't even be a problem.
>all that fear mongering every game was going to be $80
>>738419496A lazy remake of a 30 year old game being 50 dollars isn't much better.
>>738419049S-shut up
>>738419570Yeah instead they should've done a lazy compilation of two remasters for $100
>>738419496People were melting down and screeching “corporate bootlicker” just because other people were literate. Wild
>>738419696OR they could've just priced it reasonably at 10 dollars, which is as high as any remake/remaster deserves.
>>738419496Bowser said variable pricing and Nintendo is sticking with that. These are bite sized games and also $10 off to force people to imprison themselves with digital. The real test is the next Mario or Zelda and I think we all know what the prices for those will be.
>>738419756>priced it reasonably at 10 dollars
>>738410447>Silksongdumbass
>>738408367wow guess voting with your wallet works when your system isn't propped up by braindead ball and gun players
>>738408367All this says is those are going to be short, small, cheap games. Nintendo isn't any less greedy, it's only indicative of what you're going to get.Also, tendies championing digital now is hilarious. Enjoy your rentals that Nintendo will inevitably take from you.
>>738419839Physical is being priced the same at retail, copey
>>738417705isn't this a game similar to catan where it is about who can best gaslight everyone else that they aren't actually winning so they focus on taking down the current leader?
>>738419570You can not like the art direction but nothing about this Starfox remake is lazy. It looks as high quality as anything made by Nintendo ever. Name a graphically better looking game Nintendo have made to date than this.
>>738419935>silkslopno thank you
>>738409752>tripple AAA pricingI don't see $70 + $50 season pass
>>738420060It's basically 2D StarCraft with animals think Redwall on roids
>>738409924>Switch owners actually play videogames so the inherent value is higher.Why do mentally ill tendies project so much?
>>738420054Enjoy your 30 day "system check">>738420197We project video games onto our screens.
>>738420117irrelevant
>>738420089Adding graphics into a game automatically makes it worse. Stop falling for hollywood tactics. It's like claiming that the star wars prequels are better because they look prettier.
>>738420286>Enjoy your 30 day "system check"Don't have one. The problem with having to constantly bring up and compare to Sony in order to try and say anything favorable about Nintendo is it really means you're down in the mud with them.
>>738420514My bad. Enjoy your sub 30 fps and malware.
>>738417793>>Major retailers don't want physical copies just sitting so they drop the price of the physical copies to $50 to match digitalRetailers giving away the reality of the situation must cause Nintendo some serious asshurt. Dunno how you're trying to use retailers desperate to move stock as Nintendo being based.
>>738420621After 10 years of defending Switch games running at sub-30 FPS, now suddenly you care about framerate? That guy was right, you really are mucking in the mud with the snoys.
>>738420621>a tendie unironically trying to insult others using sub 30fpslmao, you fags have zero self awareness, zero principles, zero dignity, and will say anything to deepthroat nintendoenjoy your drm prison box where nintendo themselves is the malware you have no control over
>>738420714Why would Nintendo be asshurt at all? You’re genuinely delusional
>>738420812Because they don't want retailers forcefully lowering the price they set? Are you retarded
>>738408367Sorry but the discount pricing for these games is basically telling me that it’s going to be more mid-70’s metacritic fodder.
>>738420881It doesn’t hurt them at all, retailers are taking the hit. You shouldn’t discuss shit you don’t understand, dumbfuck
>>738420971>damned if you do, damned if you don't
>>738408367None of these games should cost more than 20$, OP
>>738421015It means retailers are both giving away that these games are not moving and they will buy less stock. It goes against the narrative nintendo is desperate to push, hence nintendo's stock has been halved.
>>738421031Just wait till the reviews hit for these games. Then the pricing will make sense. Shame it took Nintendo until now to price the bargain bin slop at a fair price. Unless you think Hyrule Warriors and Kirby Air Ride 2 are $70 experiences a
I don't understand why tendies continually lie about this kind of shit? They expect people outside their cult to really believe that the company selling a 10 year old Wii U port at full price is more affordable than literally any other company that gets you the full game + DLC for $20 a year later.
>>738420971Metacritic score is whatever, but with the way modern Nintendo is, all these prices tell me is these games will be cheap 4 hour long experiences.
>>738421134It just says that they don’t want to compete with lower priced digital, the rest is your deluded cope. But yes, the stock value is a very useful indicator of company health. How are you enjoying your Allbirds ai models?
>>738420971>more mid-70sThose previous mid-70 are?
>>738420881>Are you retardedAre YOU. Nintendo already sold the games. What the fuck do they care what someone else sells them for?
>>738408367>affordableI remember when AAA games were $40 at release. You're brainwashed.
>>738420730>>738420801>"No! You weren't suppose to call me out! You're suppose to take it! We're no better than them!"
>>738421280They literally live in a bubble. They're dumb as fuck and completely clueless, with a parasocial attachment to a corporation who knows how easy they are to abuse and takes full advantage. They'd be pitiful if they weren't so obnoxiously aggressive. You cannot argue or reason with them, just have a laugh.
>>738421194>2 more weeks>>738421416>back when their parents bought them games
>>738421327It says they can't compete and have to defy nintendo's pricing to move units. And that means they're buying less. If you don't want to see the obvious because nintendo's dick is blinding you, that's fine, but it doesn't change reality and it does explain why their stock is taking a dump.
>>738421439Sorry. Some of us have standards. you and the snoys can enjoy fighting over last place.
>>738421280>kirby and the forgotten land+dlc has never been below $79i hate it here.
>>738417705Why do the main guys look like fox and falco?
>>738419496It was just a Nintendo 64 year one situation. Prices are back to normal and we can enjoy Splatoon: Bad Company at a reasonable price point.
>>738421582>they can’t compete with Nintendo and have to take a hit while Nintendo makes the same amount from them>this is bad and angers Nintendolmao, you’re truly a retard. And their stock is down because they aren’t nickle and diming and doing price hikes like the rest of the industry as ai skyrockets supply costs
>>738421954Utterly delusional, but as expected of a fanboy. Carry on.
I actually still don't know what Sploon Raiders is supposed to be.
>>738419839"Bite sized games" shouldn't cost $50.
>>738422010It's Splatoon's 2 hour singleplayer tutorial campaign spread out to 4 hours.
>>738421979Lmao, satisfying capitulation, thank you
>>738422010singleplayer/co-op pve extraction shooter campaign, with levels/enemy arena dungeons>>738422074Come on, this is just sad
>>738421954>And their stock is down because they aren’t nickle and diming and doing price hikes
>>738422074>>738422257Hm. I don't play a lot of pvp games but this is definitely a game I was playing for pvp. And Salmon Run.

>>738408558Didn't marathon sell 2 million copies? No way star fox sells that much

>>738417221>computer $1000>keyboard and mouse $600>headphones $550>dac $600>desk $20>chair $40>printer $200yeah, pc is much more affordable
>>738422431What you said was asinine
>>738422010https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jaag4cVKOo8You can skip 56 seconds in to skip the character creation stuff.
>>738422512Why wouldn't it? People actually like Starfox. Nobody likes Marathon.
>>738422630I wish they showed off the platforming stuff, since we know those exist.
The question will be, are they....making digital cheaper?or making physical more expensive?
>>738422630Nintendo sure is loving their foray into open worlds huh?
I thought tendies liked calling people poorfag, now they are bragging about cheaper games? Which is it?
>>738422608>printerkek
>>738422770bofadese
>>738422848what
>>738422721It actually isn't open world. It's level by level.
>>738422608>house: $1000000>electricity bill: $100 monthly>food: $500 monthly>water: $80 monthly>air conditioning install: $10000>ur mom suckin my dick: $0goddamn, no wonder gayben can afford so many yachts with how expensive pc is
>>738422876bofadese NUTZ
>>738422848You cant say youre the affordable option while also calling others poor if they don't want to drop $70 on shit like mario tennis
>>738422704We really don't know yet because they've been releasing smaller games. Fire Emblem will probably be when we have a clearer picture, either it's $60 digital/$70 physical or $70 digital/$80 physical. But even then, they might view Fire Emblem as a more niche title where they'd want to sell it for $60 anyway.There's no big tent pole games announced that we KNOW Nintendo will want to charge full price for. Even the rumored OoT remake might not be full price(although it's Zelda, so it probably will be).
>>738422630>More open world drivelModern Nintendo truly is a two-trick pony. Remake a 30-year-old game again or put a different skin on the AssCreed open world template.
>>738422614No, you’re just mentally stunted. Using the stock value as an indicator of the health of a business is imbecilic, so your opinion on its factors could not be less valuable
>>738422824>>738422608anons, the ink cartridges!
>>738422770It's whatever narrative their master demands of them in any given moment.
Nintendo
>>738422913>You cant sayI didn't
>>738422947>said the generic tranime
>>738421954>they aren’t nickle and dimingNickel-and-diming has been the default state of Nintendo since 1983. Just because they aren't hiking their already ridiculous prices even more yet doesn't make them the good guys.
>>738422915They can’t get away with $80 FE or Xenoblade. No matter how polished they are or how much content they have. These games are lucky to sell 2-3 million worldwide. They should be the poster child for $60 digital, $70 physical.
>>738422891That’s not true, but it also has “levels” as dungeons>>738422947>le asscreedMy favorite ass creed trend chaser from nintendo is alttp, what’s yours, retard-kun? :)
>>738423135anon... alttp released before asscreed
>>738423112Tendies like to pretend that just because they haven't hiked the price on the one thing, the switch 2 itself, that nintendo hasn't been hiking the price on literally everything else. These are extremely disingenuous people who haven't the faintest clue or willingness to argue in good faith. Fanboys are a truly pathetic lot.
>>738422975FUCK I FORGOT
>>738423112I never said anything about them being “the good guys.” What sort of asspain makes you hallucinate such things?
>>738423135>That’s not true, but it also has “levels” as dungeonsYou litteraly have to get yeeted to each location, anon.
>>738408367>sub 10 hour game for $50.00 + tax + tipNot very affordable.
>>738423219And that's ignoring that the switch 2 is already overpriced for what it is and offers.
>>738423270>yeeted
>>738423270Getting yeeted somewhere does not imply that the place you land isn’t part of a contiguous landmass. It’s just a place to spawn in and a way to get off the boat that’s surrounded in deadly h20
>>738423118It's one of those situations where the fans might love the franchise enough that they'd put up with the price hike. But really, a lot of retailers seem to be eating the $10 price difference between physical and digital too, so the $80 FE/Xenoblade would still be $70 to anyone wanting to buy it and Nintendo makes more money from the retail stores.
>>738421470I'm very aware of how the cultists operate. I just wonder if they think they're fooling anyone by repeating very observable lies.
>>738423232So you bend over and gape your ass to defend them online for free because they're bad guys? Makes sense. I am sorry for your battered housewife syndrome.
>>738423112No it hasn't retard. Nickle and diming doesn't mean "I don't like their prices" you fucking mongoloid.
>>738423219>”hiking the price on everything else”>lowers digital prices>”AIEEEEEEE”
>>738423420Have fun having no control and owning nothing, froggy.
>>738423357>But really, a lot of retailers seem to be eating the $10 price difference between physical and digital tooBased on what? It hasn't happened yet, we have no idea how retailers will react.

>>738421280>>738421470>>738423401Nice meltdown
Star Fox is not worth $50. Goddamn.
>>738423419Does disc locked content like amibo count as nickle and diming or is it okay when Nintendo does it?
>>738408367Probably getting scared shitless at the drop of game sales at the whopping 70-80 mark.Plus, let's be real, none of these are 80$ games.Raiders is a spinoff to something you already need to be a fan of. Starfox is another rehash of 64, and while I loved the game, that also means its going to be an hour long and live on replayability.Same with rythm heaven.
I haven't bought a full priced game since 50 bucks was the standard so I didn't even notice anything was going on.
>>738408367Nintendo is somehow the only vidya company to understand that it costs less to sell and distribute virtual games than physical ones. It still took them 2 decades to get it, but still.
>>738423469>gets the reduced price physical version at retailers>”AIEEEEEEEE”
>>738423517
>>738423565Could explain the weak switch 2 sales compared to the switch 1
>>738423495It has in America. Walmart lowered the price of Splatoon Raiders, Star Fox, and Yoshi by $10 to match the digital pricing, Amazon followed suit and Best Buy will apparently price match.
>>738410323Damn, the huge pedo scandal and auto banning everyone from chat by default didn't slow down momentum at all.
>>738408367>$50 for an almost 30yo 3 hours long gameLol
>>738423608I liked your little meltdown after I corrected you about me saying they were good guys! Very healthy to read things that aren’t there and then screech :)
>>738423469Thanks I will have fun owning my Switch games
>>738423219>they haven't hiked the price on the one thing, the switch 2 itselfWhich is already sold at an egregious markup considering how outdated its hardware already was at launch, just like the Switch 1, the 3DS (although people still had a spine back then and forced them to lower it), and so on.
>>738423665Only the west throws the biggest shitfit about thinking of the children because it's useful for politics and to deflect from their diddling.
>>738423743Oh shit retailers aren't respecting the value?? Those yellow suits are probably seething lmao
>>738423784The chat ban was worldwide though
>>738423560I mean it's already okay with you when Valve runs an entire business on MTX and gambling so I'm sure you can handle a song locked to one amiibo
>>738423910Awfully long winded way to say it's okay when nintendo does it after you were corrected
>>738423560Obviously it's okay with Nintendo does it. Nintendo could kick my door in, shoot my dog and cuck my wife's son and I would still love them.
>>738408367They're gonna be sold for so much cheaper physically when stores will want to throw away the copies that are just sitting since monthsPhysical just keeps winning
>>738423910>it's okay when nintendo does itChrist you people are pathetic
>>738423953It's ok when anyone does it. It's just not nickle and diming to do it one single time. Just say you don't like their prices and move on. You lost this argument.
>>738424039It's ok when anyone does it. Calm down son.
>>738423830>they make the same amount from retailers and the retailers will sell more games at a lower price>this makes them madIt seems you lack any form of intelligence
>>738424181>>738424112>It's ok when anyone does it.No, it isn't, you corpo cock gobbler. You will literally say anything to defend Nintendo no matter how hard you get pushed into a corner.
I'll be buying it
>>738424112I'm a different anon that wanted to bait the "it's okay when Nintendo does it" out of you.You claimed Nintendo wasn't nickle and diming and then changed the definition of it to fit your fanboy view point.
>>738424197Nintendo eats the cost of the memory lolHence the increase to physical prices
>>738424269>No, it isn't,Yeah it is. It's a free market>You will literally say anything to defend NintendoSpeaking of being okay with nickle and dimes, how many times did you shill Genshin Impact in a Nintendo thread since 2020? Don't bother denying it btw, it happened and I'm holding you accountable whether or not you specifically did it.
>>738424197You are too stupid to realize how stupid you are.
>>738422608>computer $1000I mean, you can get cheaper onesAnd a computer is useful for other things than play games, if you decide to buy a PC just to game that's on you>Keyboard and mouse $600Wat, you can find stuff that does the job for less than $100Isn't as good as the more expensive stuff but that's to be expected>headphones $550What the fuck, what kind of headphones do you buy? They better be able to cook and suck your cock at that price>dac $600Not required>desk $20>chair $40You're trolling>printer $200Alright lolFor real, you really don't have to get all the expensive and more powerful stuff to play on PC; short term, it will cost you more than on console, for sure, but long term it's by far the cheapest optionJust by the fact that your library will follow you and that the games you bought 15 years ago will be usable on the machine you'll have in 20 years
>>738424429>it happened and I'm holding you accountable whether or not you specifically did it.>tendies going full acfaglol
>>738424334Look up the definition of nickle and diming my little trans curious friend. It doesn't mean "I don't like that Nintendo raised prices" or "I don't like $70 games"
>>738424510>Its okay when we do itYes, I'm holding you accountable for him as well.
>>738408367They were always the poor man's consoleCheaply made games for cheaper (still too expensive but still cheaper)
>>738408367>Buy physical copy>play the game>sell it>you have payed 5 dollars to play the game>Buy a online license for 50 Bucks>nintendo is getting hacked and you loose your license
>>738424550>Look up the definition of nickel and dimingOkay I did. Describes Amiibo to a T. Now what?
>>738424550>"Nickel and diming" refers to the practice of accumulating many small, extra charges or costs that add up to a significant amountSo... paid online, paid DLC, selling an actual usable controller separately for $90, Amiibos (they're still locking content behind this shit), etc. Not to mention hiking the price of handheld games up to as much as $80 when they were $40 max as recently as a decade ago. Sounds like the definition of Nintendo to me.
>>738408367>Nintendo are now the champions of affordable gamingA temporary panick to get people to buy switch 2s before the inevitable system price hike cuz Donnie just loves fucking shit up and enabling the ai bubble>what the hell changed?Nothing permanently "changed", Nintendo will be back to jewing out in no time. As much as I want the new star fox and kirby air riders, I'm not going to settle as long as subscription bullshit is a pillar of their business modelThat goes for all who do that
>nintendo chooses to have a lower price for digital games, msrp for physical copies is $10 higher>in order to compete with nintendo's cheaper alternative, retailers are lowering the price of physical copies to match nintendo's digital version>somehow this is bad for nintendo?What logic leads to this conclusion? The retailers are the ones taking the hit by reducing the price.
>>738424683
>>738424737>frequent>one amiibo one timeI guarantee you supoort Valve. And it wouldn't shock me if your favorite game was a lootbox shooter.
>>738424683>>nintendo is getting hacked and you loose your licenseNintendo doesn't even need to be hacked, they'll prevent downloads and leave games behind to rot all by themselves. Tendies are being herded into an even smaller cage.
>>738424742>it's only bad when Nintendo does itWe're done here
>>738424845>buy Mario amiibo because anon lies and says I only need one amiibo>buy metroid prime 4 because >mario amiibo doesn't unlock music mode
>>738425282>I'm easily lied toNot an issue for me
>>738425386Assuming you're the same guy I appreciate you admitting you lied about Nintendo not nickel and diming customers.
>>738408367......I don't want any of this shit
>>738422770Tendies flip flop every fucking Hour, it's fucking hilarious seeing them flounder around opinions
>>738412070>Perfectly affordable console the cheapest of the competition even>Has retro compatibility with previous joycons and controllers for the Switch 1>Already comes with a dock>50$ bundle Mario Kart World>BOTW and ToTK all got lowered retail prices and several E-shop discounts at this point>Mario Wonder is a Switch 1 game that you want to buy but are too poor to afford, regardless it is also offered for free of your choice a Switch 1 Mario game with your Mario Kart bundle on retail (which I got)>hiding the fact that Z-A's price has been lowered to 55 on retail for the Switch 2TLDR you are a disingenuous lying piece of shit
>>738425456And I'm glad you lied about not being okay with it. Back to TF2 anon, you have some MTX to buy.
>>738422770It's both. When their games aren't on sale I will call you a poorfag. When they are I will brag about it. And there's literally nothing you can do about it because I've already determined you're an even larger hypocrite than I am.
>>738422770I'm both not poor and still more tempted to buy games if they are cheaper, how is this hard to understand?
They're reducing the game prices to offset the upcoming price hike of the console. Please understand.
>>738422770This post riled up the tendies something fierce
>>738408367>affordable
>>738426090MMOcucks have been paying a lot more than that for a single game over time
>>738426181They're retards, just like nintendofags.
>>738408367NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO STOP THIS NINTENDO YOU'RE GONNA MAKE SONY LOOK EVEN WORSE WHEN THEY START CHARGING $90 FOR ALL GAMES
>>738408689You can't be fucking defending saros and marathon anon, how low will you go to be a snoy?
>>738413074>it was Sakurai's passion projectNintendo asked him to make it, dummy
>>738426181MMOs used to be like THE poorfag genre after the initial wave of really expensive ones that were pay per minute/hour. The late 90's/early 00's paid ones were $15 a month max, you could play for 3 months for the price of 1 other game(4 once the 360 generation came out).
>>738408367Japan would consider their greed culturally unacceptable. In Japan, citizens routinely organize to destroy anyone too greedy. They would all turn against Nintendo in an instant.
>>738426669Modern gamers actually love microtransactions and will complain if a game does not have enough variety of them.
>>738419496I still don't trust them. Glad to see these games are reasonably priced, but I have a gut feeling that the next Zelda will be $80.
>>738408367>>738408904>>738409346>All are short games that take less than 10 hours to play and only took a few years to developYou shouldn't be too happy about that, even though they're from my favorite franchises, they're short games, and that's why they're so cheapSoon, with new IPs, you'll see them back up to $70
Why couldn't Tomodachi Life be 50 bucks too?
>>738408367Nintendo is really pushing digital.
>>738419496You guys keep saying this but you know the next 2D AND 3D Mainline Mario, Zelda, Smash, Animal Crossing etc are gonna be $80 right? There’s certain games they know they can get away with charging $80 for because they have so many retards who will buy it regardless of the price
>>738428051$70 digital, $80 physical. Then the retailers will just price match digital because Nintendo is retarded.
>>738427473Why am I supposed to be upset about $50 games that take less than 10 hours to beat? Nuntendo has been charging $60 for that for decades, and the industry regularly charges $70 for it now
>>738408367Splatoon Raiders and Star Fox 256 would be $30-$40 max at most other companies, you lying queer
>>738428207Sony set the price standard for ugly remakes at $70
>>738428438And they got ripped on for that as well you fucking faggot
Why is Steins Gate Reboot so pricey though?
>>738428567No need to sperg out, dumb freak. I’m just pointing out that the industry standard payment for the console exclusive privilege of playing an ugly version of an old game is $70
>>738428827Because the stench of desperation and necrosis is wafting of Mages
>>738428157>Nuntendo has been charging $60 for that for decadeshttps://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/metroid-prime-remastered-switch/https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/super-mario-galaxy-2-switch/>Why am I supposed to be upset about $50 games that take less than 10 hours to beat?What I mean is that the low price is because they take a short time to beat and don't require much development timeThat's why I'm saying don't get too comfortable, because when something on the level of DK Bananza, Mario Kart World, or Kirby Air Raiders comes out, you'll see games priced at $70 or more again
>>738428860>that industry strandardIndustry standard is $30-$40, you fucking dumb cunt.
Having digital MSRP be -$10 compared to physical MSRP is honestly a genius move on Nintendo's partNintendo probably makes more money per unit with a digital purchase even at -$10 vs physical but also Nintendo gets to pocket more money when they sell to distributors/retailers due to higher physical MSRP. Then because the physical retailers have to price match down to match the digital MSRP, the retailer gets less margin (Nintendo doesn't give a fuck about them)And now that the digital and physical prices match again, the consumers essentially pay less than MSRP (or really, the true MSRP)
>>738429073For the big titles, I can stomach $70 since that is the going price for just about every other big budget game, but I really hope they don't pull another $80 title. Though with the recent trend of games being $10 cheaper digitally, I have a feeling they're gonna do $70 digitally and $80 physically.
>>738429089>Industry standard is $30-$40nta but what planet are you living on?all the big games for playstation, xbox, and nintendo have been priced at $70, and third party games, like the ones released on steam, are also priced at $70 and their regional equivalents
>>738429089>the other, first system seller hideous remake of this gen was $70Why are you so upset by this? The standard was set right there. Are you emotionally unstable?
>>738427473What if I'm completely fine with shorter games for cheaper prices actually? That just feels like exactly what I'd been playing all my life really
>>738429257For the big titles, I can stomach $70It's simple, in a few more years, you'll be able to stomach $70 since that is the going price for just about every other big budget game, nd the same goes for $90 and $100Then you’ll buy less per year because you’ll still think the price is ridiculous, but you’ll end up doing it anyway and accepting it like most peopleThe idea is not to succumb to the hype, otherwise, you’re just giving them more incentives to keep doing their stupid stuff, and I’m talking about any video game company
>>738429073https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/mario-vs-donkey-kong-switch/Dk and kirby would be priced at $60, $70 retail. Mario and zelda will be $70, $80 retail. And you didn’t address that it’s silly to be upset at a 10 hour game being $50. I don’t really give a fuck how long development takes, that’s their problem
>>738429257I can perfectly stomach $80 games if they don't come as an incomplete package (as in, DLC releases after)
>>738429443Well, that's fine, but then you won't want to buy the expensive games that last longer, and they'll raise the price of the cheap ones to even things out and give you more incentive to buy the ones you're avoiding
>>738429073I paid like $45 for Bananza on pre-order, retailers just do whatever they want
>>738429168Usually, I think this would burn bridges with retailers because they'd be furious that they're "forced" to have lower margins on Nintendo games now but Xbox no longer has a physical store presence and Sony's ecosystem has moved more towards digital too and physical PS5 games don't sell as much as physical Nintendo games. If these retailers want to sell physical video games, Nintendo more or less has a monopoly on that so Nintendo can get away with this.>>738429279He's sort of right. Remakes like System Shock, SotC, and Tony Hawk 1&2 retailed for $40 MSRP and those 2024 Tomb Raider remakes were $30. Those game were all bigger than Star Fox back then really. The industry is getting greedier and some companies are trying to get away with more now, partially because they release them with higher prices to catch mega fans and then drop them on sale to actual reasonable prices. DeSR has been $25 despite the $70 MSRP.
>>738429583What part of don't require much development time didn't you understand?That Mario vs. Donkey Kong game for $50 is a clear example of that
>>738429279>nta but what planet are you living on?Little blue ball called Earth>all the big gamesAnd wow, guess what: games like Splatoon Raiders and Star Fox aren't big games. The industry standard for such games is $30-$40 unless the company is money grubbing as fuck.>>738429313I'm not upset, I'm disgusted by you being a liar and a worm, and you shall waste no more of my time.
>>738429656I'm not avoiding the big releases unless it's a franchise I'm not confident in that I'll have a good time with, Mario, DK, Kirby, Zelda, etc have all a "seal of quality" to them that I just know I'll have a good time playing, but stuff like Metroid or Star Fox or Fire Emblem or Pokemon with somewhat fluctuating quality releases is not something im willing to throw $80 at
>>738429718>Remakes like System Shock, SotC, and Tony Hawk 1&2 retailed for $40 MSRP and those 2024 Tomb Raider remakes were $30>RemakesThat's why they're cheap, because they're remakes of existing gamesIf those were sequels, they'd cost more
>people don't usually buy remakes of games they have already played>Price them cheaper to make them more appealing>People fall for itIt's that simple
>>738429810What point did you think I was making with that? And again, the fuck do I care about how long the development was?Here’s a new game that released at $60 and runs 10 hours and pne that took next to no development time and was $60. Quit being obtuse, it not an argumenthttps://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/super-mario-bros-wonder-switch/https://www.nintendo.com/us/store/products/the-legend-of-zelda-skyward-sword-hd-switch/
>>738408367i won't even bother checking if these are emulate-able
>>738429920I think you're the visible face of the fact that they can raise the price of a game to $80, or whatever price they want, just because the game is of good qualityThe same thing they've been doing for over two decades, back when prices were lower and games like Mario, Donkey Kong, Kirby, and Zelda were still of good qualityAdmit it, if the next next-gen Mario game sells for $100 in digital or physical format, you’ll buy it
>>738429814Don’t be so upset, everything will be okay :)
>>738429931That's why he's sort of right since those 2 guys were talking about remakes. Industry standard for regular games is obviously higher, although consumers are apparently buying less of those and more of cheap indies. i swear I'm seeing new articles every month about how people are buying less vidya.
>>738427846It is if you buy NSO vouchers.
>>738430181Development on Wonder began in 2019. As for Skyward Sword, it was part of the wave of Wii and Wii U games being ported to the Switch, all of which were priced at $60, so that doesn't count.
>>738424903anon... you can still download games you bought off of the wii shop channel.
>>738408367What happened is that Metroid Prime 4 was probably the first Nintendo game in decades to lose money, so they've started rethinking the idea of charging $70 for any old piece of shit.The new Star Fox is literally Star Fox 64 under the hood, too. It's just a graphical upgrade of the same game, and I'm curious to see people's reaction when they finally figure that out.
>>738430770Don't look up what Nintendo has said about that.
>>738431002mind giving me a link?
>>738408367>saarfox 64 DLSS 5 filter for only fiddy dollars?! bargain!

>>738431516>at some pointthat will happen to every single online store
>>738431572The difference is PC has to come in and save it otherwise everyone is completely shit out of luck. If Nintendo had their way, thousands of games would be lost. It's a fundamental problem with consoles.
Who cares, call me when it gets a 3D Mario or smash bros, I don't give a fuck about its current dogshit library
>>738431720i agree with youemulationchads are above all

>>738432925If it doesn't play like a persona game I don't want it (unironically)
>>738408367For me the best price point for Star Fox would be $40 but I guess that ain't gonna please the shareholders
