I thought people didn't like the new design?
>>738541618Getting physical day 1 in store.
>>738541618>best selling game when your competition is shit that’s been out for a year already, terrible ports better played elsewhere, and baby toddler Yoshi shit
>>738541618>implying anyone is buying switch 2 games
>>738541682>>738541763>>738541805Here come the llm bots.
I hope it does amazing and we get starfox 2 remake next
>>738541618>Shilling Nintendo, Amazon, and XwixxerIf you could come down with stage 4 colon cancer, I'd greatly appreciate it
>>738541618It was a kneejerk reactionNow almost everyone loves the designs
>>738541618Literally just furries bitching.
I like the old designs better, but the new ones don't bother me too much. Except for Katt, jesus christ hers is bad.The voice acting is what I hate the most.
>>738541618Didnt the same thing happened with Metroid prime 4?
>>738543272Yes, and look what happened.
>nearly 4 million views combined>1.1m from JapanDoes that seem like a lot? Or do Directs always do numbers?
>>738544109ironically, the fuckass looking character designs have boosted the publicity of the game.
>>738541618Preordering a game at Amazon is like preordering ice cream with the McDonalds app.
I preordered it on Amazon at 60€ but then I noticed FUCKING Game Stop is price-matching the digital release at 50€ so I switched to that.
>>738544180Ugly Sonic boosted visibility too but if they didn't fix him the movie wouldn't have made $300 million, it would have made $80 million. Sure Nintendo will probably sell close to a million copies with this rushed rehash of 64 that got bonked with the Disney Live Action Remake stick, but is that what Nintendo wants? Everything that sells less than 64 is seen as a failure to them, and this game is literally just an N64 game with modern graphics and ugly taxidermy character designs. This is absolutely not the game fans have been asking for for the last 10 to 20 years, and every day more and more are going to stop pretending that it is.
>>738546539shut up eric
>>738546539meds
imagine having a userbase who will literally buy anything you make as long as it has the brand name on it
isn't most of this old games
>>738546753>>>/vp/
>>738546775Pragmata and Resi9 are one and two months old. Indiana Jones hasn't released yet on Switch 2. World and Bananza are evergreens.I can't believe Just Dance is still popular.
>>738541618I boughted it but mostly because I don’t have anything else to play on my switch 2. Yoshi looks like overpriced shit.
>>738541618Reasonably priced Remake of a good game> Overpriced trash you'll play once and never again
>>738547003>50 dollars>reasonably pricedits a two hour game at BEST
>>738547145That is the new reasonable, Let's not pretend people didn't buy something from steam just because it was dirt cheap
the top 3 aren't even out yet why are people buying nothing hello this has to be fake
>>738547145The original costed more when it launched. And if you only get 2 hours out of it, you didn't even see half the game.
>>738541618>best selling Switch 2 gameSo like 4 copies? No one's buying the shit console especially after the price hike
>>738541618that yoshi crap is outselling that splatoon crap?
>>738547145It's a damn good two hours.
>>738547503what's your problem with yoshi
>>738547503Yoshi comes out in a couple weeks while Splatoon is end of July. I haven't preordered the latter yet but will closer to release.
>>738547342It's an exact remake of a 30 year old game, just play a fucking ROM.
>>738547605the game looks like they made the mechanics but not actual stages to go with them
I can't wait to see what Krystal looks like in the more animalistic design and with stubby legs
>>738541618>failed console's #1 gamekek
>>738541682>Posting the news in the form of an X post is LE BAD.
>on amazon!And they don't quote sales on Nintendo because?
>spending $50 on an old-ass game you can beat in 1 hour
>>738541618Everyone loves these upcoming games though
>>738541763You lost snoy
People have focused way too much on the character designs and not the overall blandness of the environments. The character designs aren't great either, though. They should have went all-in on the Thunderbirds influence.
Turns out third worlders spamming social media with incendiary posts to try get ad clicks are irrelevant to the videogame market in the developed world
>>738541618Amazon matching Switch 2 physical game prices with Nintendo's new digital prices has been kino. You can get raiders, star fox, and yoshi all physical for the same price as their digital counterparts.
>Star Fox 64: James McCloud is a Force ghost>Star Fox Command: James makes an unexplained appearance where his ship can physically interact with enemy ships>Star Fox Zero: James (probably) is alive in another dimension after being thrown into a wormhole>Star Fox 2026: Peppy doesn't stick around long enough to see James being taken downHe's going to turn up actually alive.
>>738550952There's no way it's going to keep being like that. Either the retailers are going to drop the physical games or Nintendo is going to go back to full priced digital games.
>>738550452>spending 80 dollars on a game about a brown bisexual man who gets cucked by his lesbian wife
>>738551130>He's already coping and making imaginary scenarios in his head.Lol.
>>738551195coping about what. I'm making a statement. Clearly this is not what Nintendo wants.
>>738551241Why would Nintendo care if retailers stick to MSRP or price match with digital? Retailers pay them the same price to stock their games, what customers end up paying only affects the retailer's revenue.
>>738551241MSRP is just a suggestion. Stores are allowed to charge whatever they want. Nintendo is making the same amount of money regardless because Amazon is the one discounting.
>>738551331The whole point of lowering the digital price was to get people to buy more digital games because the margins are way higher (they keep 100% of money). Do you have a brain? No shit they care.
>>738541850>>738541763ericplease, just shut the fuck up
>>738551332>Amazon is the one discounting.Hence why I also said the retailers will just stop stocking the games. Hello? Anyone home?
>>738541618i know this may surprise you, but the opinions of social media is such a small minority
Nintendo has had beef with Amazon before, this will not end well.
>>738551472Why would they do that?
>>738551403No, it's because NOA knows spending for Americans is tight and they can afford to discount digital because there are wider margins.
>>738551403A sale is a sale, why would nintendo care? Again, retailers are already paying full price so it's the same either way.
>>738541618Anything Nintendo releases sells. Haven't you learned with Pokemon already?
>>738551472>Hence why I also said the retailers will just stop stocking the games. Hello? Anyone home?Genuinely what are you talking about? Why would this make stores suddenly drop them? If anything it will drive them to discount more to keep up with Amazon. Competitive retailers are a good thing
>>738551403Yes dude, Nintendo prints physical copies hoping to sell fewer of them.
>>738551558because i have it easier being Italian
>>738541618>pragmata below indiana jones and the great circleyikes, crapcom era is in full effect
>>738551241Nintendo already makes money when it shipped to them? Why would they care amazon is the one taking slightly lower profits.
>>738551752They are definitely going to stop allowing Amazon to sell them, enjoy while you can.
>>738551615metroid prime 4 didnt sell
>>738551801lmao that's not how MSRP works. You have zero clue what the hell you're talking about
>>738551801no?
>>738551723It's worth noting that Indiana Jones on Switch 2 is full physical while Pragmata is a game key card.
>>738551801you do realize that msrp is a suggested price right? it's in the name, suggested retail priceamazon could give away copies for free if they wanted to
>best selling switch 2 game
>>738551752>>738551639>>738551637Retailers already make barely anything selling physical games. If you think they're just going to keep selling them for $10 off while paying Nintendo the same, you're delusional.
Most of it is people just buying whatever is new and people buying into the marketing from the mario movie.
>>738551801> They are definitely going to stop allowing Amazon to sellThey already did for whatever a while ago. Probably amazon was trying to pull some bullshit
>>738541618>peopleFurfags aren't people.
i miss when you got a preorder discount for video games from Amazon
>>738551980Nigger you said Nintendo was going to force them to stop, and now you're moving the goalposts once you got assblasted. Yes, it is possible that Amazon will eventually stop doing this because they want a bigger cut, but that's not what you were saying.
Its completely getting carried by the Mario movie cameo. My friend's kids literally loved seeing Fox in the Mario movie and are begging him to get the game despite them looking realistic. Kids don't get hung up on details like that.
>>738551963https://www.amazon.com/best-sellers-video-games/zgbs/videogames
>>738551871>>738551881>>738551945>>738552023Nintendo stopped directly selling products to Amazon for periods because Amazon requested "substantial" financial support to artificially lower prices below competitors like Walmart, a move former Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aimé termed illegal and a form of collusion. They also would routinely break street date.They are going to be forever without Nintendo magic after this next step of bullshit
>>738551980you do realize, that the margin on video games is tiny. you sell video games to try and sell accessories, the real money makers
>>738551980Wtf do you mean? Retail take worse lose then this. If anything if it can more products faster they probably won’t care. Retails hate having thing on shelves for to long it gives them anxiety
>>738552123>Either the retailers are going to drop the physical games or Nintendo is going to go back to full priced digital games.Which part did I say Nintendo is going to force them to stop
>>738552146>2/8 are actual gamesgrim
>>738552174Walmart is price-matching digital too. Do you think Nintendo will stop selling stock to Walmart?
>>738541618Star Fox fans are utterly desperate to break the cycle of "Ninty remakes SF64 in hopes of garnering interest for doing more with the series, remake sells like ass, Ninty assumes no one wants any Star Fox, another 10 years of only existing in Smash Bros before the next SF64 remake attempt" and are thus going full throttle to make sure this remake sells like hotcakes so Nintendo knows there's an audience for Star Fox after 30 years of trying to identify one.
>>738552023Reggie recently did an interview where he said Amazon was trying to force them to give them products for cheap so they could massively undercut everybody else selling them and Reggie told them where to go.
>>738552174>>738552023Selling under MSRP and begging Nintendo to give them special treatment are two compeltely different things
>>738552146>the only actual GAMES on the top 8 is nintendo games>this is the case even if you go all the way down to top 25>you have to go down all the way to 30th place to find a non-switch game>it's just niggerball
>>738552234No, that's normal. Of course $10 digital store credit cards will sell a lot.
>>738552290If Nintendo or Amazon were caught doing what Amazon proposed the FTC would fine the shit out of both of them. Reggie was right to say no.
>>738552261That is not going to work. Assault and Adventures both didn't sell well and Command wasn't hot either despite being on the NDS during it's peak.Nintendo just has to accept this franchise has nowhere to go.
>>738552229Here you go, faggot: >>738551801Also, you STILL shifted your argument regardless
>>738552174one can dream eric, one can dream
>>738541618Theres nothing else to play on that shit, no shit its high
>>738552324Physical is just dead outside of first party Nintendo games.Switch 1 was the last bastion for physical games.
>>738552174they can sell under msrp all dayasking for special pricing compared to other retailers is what got them in trouble
>>738552504>outside of first party Nintendo games.pokopia is on that top listing
>>738552429They are cutting into Nintendo's margins, they are going to get cut off retard.
>>738552183Ok, irrelevant. People who buy Nintendo games like to buy physical. Nintendo needs the retailers more than they need Nintendo. They clearly will not like having to sell their games for $10 off when the profit from an actual full price game sale is probably barely $10.>>738552429Wow you got me, moron.
>>738552576How?
>>738552576They already paid nintendo, they are just undercutting themselves.Why would nintendo care?
>>7385525631 game vs the other dozen Nintendo published games on the Switch 2That was 100% TPC faggotry
>>738552586amazon has already bought the game from Nintendowhat amazon sells it for has no bearing on how much nintendo gets. when the game is on the shelf, nintendo already has their money
>>738552146>PS5 controller is 8th because you have to replace them every several monthsProbably the only smart move they made with that console
>>738552576>They are cutting into Nintendo's margins,No they aren't. That's not how this shit works. Goddamn you faggots live in a make believe world. I don't even know why you're arguing about this so hard. Are you THAT mad people are getting physical games for a discount?
>>738552704>>738552760If even a single person decides to buy physical due to the price drop on Amazon/Walmart, Nintendo loses money. They make more money from a digital sale. You are literally retarded. Just stop. They reduced the digital price because they make more from digital. The retailers are just fucking them with these discounts.
>>738552874For the gorillionth time, nintendo already got paid, amazon and other retailes are the ones losing money if they sell the games too low.
>>738552874so what you're saying is nintendo should stop selling physical, only sell digital got it
God damn wtf is wrong with you
>>738552586>get called out>try to dodge>get called out again>finally admit you're wrong>get assmad and insult the person who called you out anywaythis is what ant-nintendo delusion does to a motherfucker.
holy fuck you have to be trollingno one is this fucking retarded
>>738541618Much like with the Switch 2 "drop the price" controversy last year, the people that complain the loudest are the ones that weren't gonna buy it in the first place.
>>738552954You are completely ignoring what I am saying, or just completely fucking retarded. Or trolling. I just can't believe anyone is this stupid.
>>738544109Seems bad. Nintendo is aiming for at least 5 million units sold
>>738541618Just goes to show how bad the Switch 2 library is.
>>738553014People keep acting like "nintendo derangement syndrome" is just a funny meme or an insult, but no, it's a genuine mental i'llness.
Only on /v/ do you hear getting a discount on a console or a game is a bad thing.
>>738553119That would make it the best selling StarFox game ever. The last one didn't even manage a million.
>>738553224NDS is pretty fucked up, yeah.
>>738544180>the fuckass looking character designs have boosted the publicity of the game.but will they save the game with a sonic movie-tier redesign?
>>738553119you're aware nintendo games easily make their budget back with a mere 50k copies sold, right?
>>738553347it doesn't need it, the designs aren't THAT bad
>>738553224This is actually expected now, a month back or so when nintendo actually lowered digital prices across the board with no strings attached everyone acted like it was a bad thing.
>>738547145you get an expanded story and numerous cutscenes to make up for it, plus a much more polished battle mode with online
>>738547605not him, but the game looks like it was made for toddlers with the field guide book gimmick. the kind of game where you get infinite health and can't fall down a pit
>>738553437Damn, you just reminded me of that one faggot that was INSISTENT that the new digital price changes meant more 80$ physical games yet everything they've announced since then has been $60 physical maximum.
>>738553347>Sonic fags want you to believe the new designs are anywhere near this badThe absolute state kek
>hurr another 64 remake!? fuck NIntendo!>these remakes are always the best selling games in the seriesHave you tried not fucking buying it then?
>>738547145Almost as if it's a remake of the original game with one route being 45min long
>>738551116In the snes game, he got transported to another dimension after a black hole bomb went off.
>>738551801it's impossible to buy popular physical games on Amazon and not get scammed. They scam you 100% of the times by sending an empty cover without a card inside.Only if you buy niche games it won't happen.
>>738553740lmao what third world shithole do you live in? This has literally never happened to me once
>>738541618how can it be best selling if the game's not even released?
>>738541939>I hope it does amazing and we get starfox 2 remake nextStarfox 2 is an immensely shallow game mechanically. It was sort of like side content or one element of a game packaged as a game.Shame Star Fox didn't go the Ace Combat route. That said, https://youtu.be/hF3g2ENOHjc
>>738541618Same thing happened with Metroid Prime 4. Or did we all forget already?
>>738553619i still dont know why westoids are acting this is badit looks furry and it looks manly, what is the issue supposed to be?
>>738547145>thing costs x by default>make default price higher>sell new thing at the previous x price>retards now think they're getting a good dealIt's scummy marketing 101
>>738552146What the fuck is luna
>>738553616>Had to tell someone at work that all these current games being released are $60 (physical) cause he thought Nintendo game were more expansive He has a switch not exactly a huge Nintendo fan tho.
>>738553880One more obligatory X clip.https://youtu.be/dKaH1tlLSyQ?t=72
>>738553907I'm telling you man, check the profile of someone complaining and 90% of the time it's just some furry seething because they're not fuckable anymore.
>>738553907>it looks manlythis part here.Everyone wants fox to be some pretty teenage fuckboy so they can jerk off to the furry pornbut really it's really hit and miss. The main cast can be passable but a lot of the side characters look ass.
>>738554109People have been spreading a lot of bullshit about Nintendo since the launch of the Switch 2, however I really do think Nintendo made a mistake pricing MKW at 80$. Sure you could get around it with the bundle, but it definitely effected the general public image. Thankfully, even though Nintendo never directly addressed it, it does seem like Nintendo has been quietly lowering their software prices for new shit recently.
>>738541618Wait I don't understand is that a new Star Fox video game? I thought this was a movie about it
>>738554467>but it definitely effected the general public image.NDS negroids would have whined either way.
>>738554514You're right, but I think it hurt their image even among normalfags. Anon was bring up an example of a casual conversation with a coworker.
>sour grapes shitting on the older games' designsADD IT TO THE LIST>dungeons, secondary items, lock-and-key design were always bad anyway.>the National Dex was always bad anyway.>multiple towns on one system was always bad anyway.>the skimpy designs were always bad anyway.>analog triggers were always bad anyway.>lapped races were always bad anyway.>Rare-era DK was always bad anyway.>QR Mii sharing and Miitopia's editor were always bad anyway.>Nintendo Directs were always bad anyway.>the old Star Fox designs were always bad anyway.
>>738541618How much is this game going for?Because Nintendo wants to charge 80+ dollars for games and the original star fox 64 was about 90 minutes long
>>738554467Yeah, I agree. I love Nintendo games but $70 for Mario Tennis was waaaay too much.It's nice to see Splatoon Raiders and RH being sold at a decent price, definetly gonna grab them at launch.
>>738546247>Implying the machine works
>>738541618Holy shit.It's outselling Yoshi and The Mysterious Book????What the fuck how?
>>738541618This is proof. If it makes furfags seethe, it's good.
>>738541618What were Metroid Prime 4's numbers?
>>738554613Normalfags have the attention span of a goldfish. They get fucked silly sideways by every game company and yet they go right back to buying whatever is new and popular.
>>738554625$50 digital, $60 physical (though Amazon opened preorders for physical at the digital price).>>738554676See above. Plus it's fucking YOSHI you're talking about. Those games have always been doomed.
>>738554620Evey single time with you faggots kek.
>>738554467>it does seem like Nintendo has been quietly lowering their software prices for new shit recently.MP4 and Mario Tennis Fever both failed to sell 1 million copies on Switch 2, so Nintendo can't get away with charging $70 for most of their games let alone $80. It's a weird spot to be in because a game like Fever isn't going to be evergreen when people that care about Mario Tennis already have Aces which is playable on their Switch 2. Likewise, SF64 is already on NSO. If Nintendo makes it $70, people won't buy it when they can already play it. So Nintendo has to start pricing some of their games lower, because Nintendo is in competition with themselves.
>>738554358this
>>738552324It's even worse if you think a bit more, these people are buying $10 money card to spend on microtransactions.
All of us uncs can't wait to re-live StarFox 64.
>>738541618I have demake fatigue
>>738554736Anon, I love Nintendo, but I'm not gonna sit here and pretend like charging MKW for 80 was a smart idea.
>>738554358>Switch era fans gravedancing on what people liked about the series up until now and trying to dishonestly link the new game to the very first game in a superficial way to give it a false shield of senioritywhy does this incredibly specific thing keep happening with Nintendo IPs>>738554880The market apparently agrees since MKW's sales without the bundle are pigshit.
>>738554880I never said it was a good idea. It was a dumb idea. All I'm saying is that normalfags will absolutely forget everything they were upset about and buy the next new thing because it's popular online.
>>738555018>The market apparently agrees since MKW's sales without the bundle are pigshit.i wonder if that's why nintendo is pricing more games at $50 now. they know that's the sweet spot people will buy at since mkw did bonkers numbers at $50.
>>738555018>The market apparently agrees since MKW's sales without the bundle are pigshit.Fuck off, I'm talking about the general public perception at a high level. MKW selling better as a bundle makes perfect sense because most people who want MKW to begin with are going to buy it in the bundle.
>>738554930Ýou really thought that image alone would provoke some kind of strong reaction.
>>738554880>>738555018The price of MKW would look more reasonable if the greater israel plan didn't effectively nuke the world economy.
>>738541618Still deciding between physical and digital.Digital is cheaper and here in Aus nothing is prrice matching, though JB Hifi is close to digital price.Most of my Switch/2 library is digital at this point too.Physical copy is tempting though as I love StarFox
>>738555090Also they seem to underestimate just how goddamn much heavy-lifting yearly holiday bundles did for MK8DX's ungodly numbers.
>>738555090They learned that not every game will sell like hot cakes at $70/$80. The next 3D Mario and Zelda will absolutely be around $80 physically if they're serious about the cheaper digital prices. Any sort of spinoff or smaller title will be in the $50/$60 sweet spot.
>>738555239and walmart/amazon will sell the physical games for $70 if you pre-ordersweet
>>738555018>gravedancing on what people liked about the series up until nowAh, yes, because people LOVED Zero's controls and that mediocre Zelda clone. Not literally just Star Fox 64.
>>738555406how did you possibly get that from replies about artstyle you incredibly dumb fuck
>>738555218The MKW bundle will absolutely come back when they drop the dlc, but for now it's seems like they're banking on Pokopia.
>>738555632I thought that Pokopia bundle was Australia/New Zealand only.
>>738555018>since MKW's sales without the bundle are pigshit.Do we know exactly how well the non bundle version of MKW sold? It's the 10th best selling game on Amazon right now which is shockingly higher than I'd expect. It's #2 on the Eshop right now, but I'm not sure if that includes the bundled copies.
>>738541618Hell yeah, Nintendomination!!!!
>>738555687>but I'm not sure if that includes the bundled copies.It does not, the bundled copies are code vouchers which don't count for eshop rankings.
>>738547962main issue with switch 2 fox is his mouth. he always bares his teeth when he opens it and his lips are always raised and extendedthe hunchback slouch can just be chalked up to stylistic choices with the extra long animalistic fox neck they went with
>>738555749>the bundled copies are code vouchers which don't count for eshop rankings.NTA but some came preloaded onto the system, whichever account logged in first claimed it.
>>738541618I'm going to skip every cutscene. Why they fuck would their designs bother me.
>>738554705I don't think its been revealed in any financial report so sub 1 million lol
>>738552261only silver lining is fox will never go away completely since he's granfathered in as one of the original smash 12, along with ness and captain falcon
>>738555687MKW saw an increase of about 670k from Oct-Dec 2025 to Jan-Mar 2026. For reference, MK8DX saw an increase of about 2.9m from Jul-Sep 2017 to Oct-Dec 2017 (three quarters in, same as what we're gauging with MKW). And MK8DX didn't get to benefit from bundles yet at this point (that wouldn't start until the 2018 holidays).
>>738552954>retard confuses revenue with profitevery time you buy physical, nintendo gets LESS in profit than if you'd bought digital, moron
>>7385417630 games means 0 competition
>>738556083then why did Saaros bomb?
>>7385479624 bras, imagine
>>738556167it didn't, it's the number one game in india
>>738546539The difference is that you're only gonna see the character models in cutscenes most of the time
>>738541618All hail the king, baby!
>>738556048Oh yeah, it should be mentioned that the Switch 2 also has an install base lead of about 5 million compared to what the the Switch 1 had at this time, PLUS MKW had a whopping 6 months of active bundle sales and about two-three months more of runoff stock outside of Japan (assisted further by unofficial discounts from major retailers).
>>738556167Insane how fast this game was forgotten despite the glowing reviews.
>>738556048MK8 didn't have to live through what is effectively desperate attempts at forcing WW3.
>>738551812Nor did mario pennis
>>738556397no one wants to talk about the game since the story is garbage. it's like it's radioactive

>>738554756>Nintendo is in competition with themselves.oh man Smash Bros is FUCKED unless Sakurai somehow pulls off Ultimate 2, because in terms of characters/stages you're never going to officially top SSBU, which is already available on Switch 2>>738556445Strange that this of all games was the straw that broke the camel's back.
>>738556578>oh man Smash Bros is FUCKED unless Sakurai somehow pulls off Ultimate 2, because in terms of characters/stages you're never going to officially top SSBU, which is already available on Switch 2It's fucked because a new Smash has to compete against the old Smash + all the DLC at release. It needs to set itself apart in a major way or else everyone is going to say it's worse than Ultimate until all the DLC is out.
>tfw no Star Fox RTS everAll you have to do is rip-off Homeworld.
>>738556279So one of the pillars that's supposed to make me feel like I'm getting value on top of a $50 remake of a game I've been playing for 30 years is that I get to look at these ugly designs up close and personal for cutscenes. And if I don't like it, I'm basically left with an enhanced graphics pack for Star Fox 64, which I can already play on my PC with an unlocked framerate.Nintendo didn't read the room on this one, and by announcing and launching this game so close after Mario Galaxy they set fan expectations way too high for what the next Star Fox game should be.Just because Nintendo is making yet another very expensive mistake doesn't mean I have to, though. I'm not paying $550 to play a game I don't even really want. If I already had a Switch 2 then maybe I would buy it but this is not the game you use to convince me to buy the system, when it's just another remake of 64 with online play and they ruined the characters.
>>738554674
>>738557823
>>738541618I mean, its the first game they have made in like what? 20 or 30 years?
>>738557823i mean if you want a switch 2 at some point, you should probably buy it before the price increase unless you want an oled. honestly, you should have bought it 6 months ago during the sales. it's wild that the switch 2 was going for $400 6 months ago but it'll be $500 in 4 months.
>>738558068Where have we seen this before? Oh yeah, Star Fox Zero, which was supposed to be a million seller and was going to lead to new sequels, until they didn't.I'm not gonna finance a Star Fox game that was clearly not made for me, especially when the buy in is half a grand. I'm done being held hostage with emotional black mail every time Nintendo brings Star Fox back and fucks it up. If that means I have to sit on the sideline and watch all the hogs gorge themselves at the slop troff then so be it, I'll do what the tourists are always telling me to do and play something else.
>>738541618There's fuck all else to buy, of course it's the top selling game.
>>738558319I don't want them that badly. A new Star Fox game could have been the game that made me want one that badly, but this is not the game I was waiting for. It was made for tourists who never even liked Star Fox until it got the live action remake look. If Nintendo doesn't need or want my money then I'll begrudgingly not give it to them.
How much hype will the OOT Remake get? https://youtu.be/0hEYvdMoF2g
>>738558381Star Fox Zero was on the Wii U which the Switch 2 already outsold and it hasn't even been a year lel.
>>738558381It's so easy to not spend money on slop garbage, it's unreal!
Don't believe anything pre-release.
>>738541682Never seen such an accurate portrayal of OP being a faggot before. Well done anon.
>>738541618Top selling, but collectively all those games have probably only sold about 100K copies,
>>738544180>>738546539the new designs are goat'd and youre both sheep herdthought faggots
>>738554815Stock drops when price increase is announced.
>>738558770so why'd they announce a price increase
>>738558495there's a rumor about a supposed new adventure type star fox game due out next year(and it got the current star fox game right as well) but i wouldn't buy a $450 console based on a rumor. the game i was going to buy a switch 1 for never even released, if i bought a switch 1 for just that game then i would have been pissed.
>>738558802Them ai data centers can't die soon enough.
>>738558770No increase when Star Fox dropped, drop when console price hike. I know I would have pulled my stock the second I saw Fox with gout.
>>738558760They suck ass. Fox is literally just an upright standing taxidermy fox wearing Fox McCloud's clothing and with weird out of proportion arms and hands. They characters look dead and they make me feel dead inside when I look at them.
Chud bros when will we finally win again?
>>738558819That rumor was not from Nate the Hate, and people are calling it unlikely and unsubstatiated. There was a brief nod to Star Fox Adventures in the Nintendo Direct but more likely that's going to be for the re-release of Adventures on NSO next year, for the game's 25th anniversary, not a new adventure-style game.Nintendo is using SF26 to "gage interest" which means more emotional blackmail. If you don't buy if the franchise goes to jail again, and if it's a hit then all of their bad choices are vindicated and they are going to go full on forward with ugly Fox and crew as the main versions of the characters from now on.Just like WOPR said in War Games, "the only winning move is not to play." I'm going to step back and watch what happens. I'm not giving Nintendo a good faith investment on this game when they aren't doing anything to reward said faith. They want this to be the foundation for the rest of the series going forward and I'm saying hell no.
>>738559150brown muttoid hands typed this post
>>738547145Yes? And?
>>738559385The fact westoids seem so assblasted about the new designs while japan seems to love them fills me with joy for whatever reason.I love seeing westoids so pissy and miserable like this.
>>738558381>Million seller>On the wii u fucking U
>>738560098Fun fact, splatoon, MK8, new super mario bros U and mario maker all sold over a million copies in japan alone, splatoon itself did 1.5m in fact.Fun fact 2: The PiS5 is still a million virgin in japan.Fun fact 3: The vita has a million seller in minecraft.
>>738560280
>>738559385You sure seem obsessed for someone who doesn't even want a Switch 2
Yoshi and the mysterious book...
>>738554746Notice how he didn't respond
>>738541939I hope we get an actual new game in the vein of 64, which is something they should have made *on* the damn N64 if not GC or Wii, but I digress.
>>738546539Ugly Sonic was an actual shitshow.these designs don't actually look bad, just because you don't like them. That's what you don't understand.
>>738554031Amazon Ouya
>>738547145you can only stretch a railshooter out so long
>>738553619People keep posting this character as if it's Fox, even though that's obviously James, if you've played Starfox 64 even once in your life. I'm not telling the kiddies what the difference is. They need to play games for themselves...
I still hope we get Star Fox 99 at some point. F-Zero 99 was great.
>>738558802Nintendo doesn't like selling hardware at a loss. Worth noting that they've already implied that even with the incoming price increase they're still selling at a loss.
What sales are they expecting? 1 million? 2 million?I'm not sure if a new audience consisting of SMG movie-goers and Smash Bros kids will care about this short arcade-style game from 1997 meant to be replayed over and over for hi-scores and such. I would be thrilled if they did end up caring though, actually.
>>738559898Rest assured, Japan hates them too, and you don't get to hide behind Japan to defend these ugly designs. These are not "Japanese anthro." Japanese anthro is called kemono which is usually even more "cutesy" looking than Western furry.
>>738559898Rest assured, Japan hates them too. These are not "Japanese anthro." Japanese anthro is called kemono which is even more "cutesy" looking than Western furry.
>>738561829The important thing here is that it does well enough for Nintendo to make more.Samus Returns didn't even crack a million but we still got Dread.
lol
>>738561829that's who the new fleshed out cutscenes are for. You're essentially getting a whole Starfox movie, along with the game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPdobtLUa2YThey're clearly putting a lot into this aspect of the game, which follows, since they set up an in-house animation studio recently.
>>738562059Hehe
>>738561829I'm thinking 2 million if the hype it's getting online is anything to go by, and it being the one Switch 2 game for June.
>>738561338I would have been more hyped for that. And maybe it's a realistic possibility. New SNES-style graphics is always welcome. Make a sprite for this guy and make him the host for weekly/daily challenges.
>>738562059Not so fun fact: the 3DS remaster is now older than the original was when the remaste came out
>>738546539The new Star Fox designs fall more firmly into the territory of "contentious" versus something like the original movie Sonic, which was just flat-out despised. It's not as easy to know just how much of an impact the designs will have as a result (but it will be a negative impact, obviously).
>>738560893At least as many people hate the new designs as like them. Some people are indifferent and only care about the gameplay. In any case, the character designs are a failure because they are dividing the audience into camps instead of making everyone excited for Star Fox again.The Mario Galaxy Movie design worked. Everyone loved it and was talking about how they want a new Star Fox game, because it captured what the character and IP are all about. The new designs are a rejection of the IP's heritage and identity and they look like they were made for "the new audience" which means they were not made for anyone. Sure some people think they look fine, but the people who actually care are deeply dissatisfied. Nobody was asking for the characters to look like taxidermy with tiny little digitigrade feet, and if they were they weren't fans.Star Fox is a Saturday morning cartoon. Nobody wanted a live action remake of it.
>>738560280PS6 will save the PS5!
>>738562240>The new designs are a rejection of the IP's heritage>>738554358
>>738541618Be real with me, are remasters and remakes the only way that the vidya industry can sell the illusion that we're still making graphical progress?
>>738562240I don't think the Mario Movie design really captured Fox at all. Fox isn't a dudebro Western animation character. He's a calm collected leader.It's fine for what it is, but nothing about those movies feels properly on-brand. It's a bizarro American re-imagining of the Nintendo pantheon.
>>738562240You people would be bitching about it just like you did with DK, even tho the movie design was based on Bananza and not the other way around lol.
>>738562430Nah you've just been gaslit by a corporate crisis management firm.
>>738562594Are you suggesting that it's like the ugly Sonic conspiracy theory, where the ugly design is rolled out first so that everyone asks for the design they were going to use anyway and they get a bunch of free publicity?(Nintendo is not that smart.)
>>738541618I'm buying the game on principle because I'm a Star Fox goy through and through (and also because I want an Adventures 2 more than anything).I quite literally might be the only person in my country who boughted the first print edition of Star Fox Zero in me country.
>>738562806Maybe this would be me if I already owned a Switch 2 but I'm not spending $500 just so Nintendo can milk me for my star fox goy money. If this is the direction Nintendo wants for the IP going forward I'm closing my wallet. Not because it makes a difference to Nintendo but because I'm keeping my money and I can't justify spending it on a new game console just to buy a game that I'm not even looking forward to.
>>738562595>Slippy looks exactly the same, only with an ugly bead necklace>Peppy looks cute, instead of aged and fatherly>Fox's outfit doesn't look nearly as sharpIf anything, this is winning me over to the new designs
>>738541682we need to ban this nigger, if you don't like a thread then stay the fuck out, NIGGER

>>738541682>literally just data>UH UHHH YOU ARE POSTING DA TWITTER POST!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS DA POOPOO!!!!!this fucking board needs to be erased
>>738553119god you retards are so fucking stupid
>>738563000I'm actually buying a Shitch 2 for this, that's how cereal I am.
>>738563026You said they were the same designs and when you got caught in the lie and are changing your story to "So what if the designs are different? The new ones are better."Guess what? The fans don't like the puppets either other than for the simple nostalgia for the very first game. That doesn't mean we like the new designs either, because they are a trashy corpo-redesign that nobody wanted. The tourists like it just because it's a shiny new thing but the fans hate it.
>>738563263I didn't say that.
>>738562151why is the voice acting so horrendously fucking badjesus christ
>>738563263>The fans don't like the puppets either other than for the simple nostalgia for the very first gameLmao, fuck off, I always liked them.
>>738541618I don't see the issue with the design. It looks a lot like 64 with more polygons.
>>738562595What would it take to see a gang of bros for the main cast of a game. No girls allowed damnit
their never gonna use these designs again so does it really matter if their bad or not
>>738563820Nobody was asking for a game where they look like puppets, and it's splitting hairs anyway because the new character designs don't even look like puppets, they look like taxidermy.
>>738564132*they're
>>738564071We haven't had a girl on the Star Fox team in 20 years unless you count Star Fox 2 which is actually a 90s game that Nintendo canceled despite being finished, and then released 25 years later.
>>738563791It's literally fine. SF is supposed to be a bit hokey.
>>738554358This dumbass nonargument falls flat on its face because not only are you indirectly admitting the designs are ugly but the main character that most people want to fuck isn't even depicted in this game
>>738564235I meant in general for a Ninty game.
>>738564290it's not hokey you deaf retard, it's flat as fuck and completely lacking in any kind of proper deliveryI've heard more convincing reads in high school playsit's embarrassingly awful
>>738564397it's fine.
No, I like how they look. And not because "muh original box art," I just like 'em, and the look of the game overall.That said I have played through SF64 many, many times, so I dunno if this is gonna do anything for me. $50 isn't terrible, relative to other releases anyway. We'll see.
>>738564165>Nobody>OP shows how the game is topping the Amazon listsWhatver helps you sleep babe.
>>738541618>oh em gee its the best selling switch 2 game right now!!>the list of the other switch 2 games are just ports, nothingburgers, and "hard hitters" from last year>this means this game will be a blast haver outta 10!!!Grim. Really fucking grim. Heres to 2027 finally giving the console a game worth a damn
>>738564480>>738564290The fact that your highest praise for it is "fine" demonstrates that the standard has been lowered.
>>738546539>This is absolutely not the game fans have been asking for for the last 10 to 20 yearsAre old boomer fans of a dead franchise from decades ago really the demographic you should try to please to make money? If they get enough new fans I don't think they care.
>>738564480IT'S NOT FINE IT SOUNDS LIKE TERRIBLY DELIVERED NIGGER DOGSHITSTOP EXCUSING HORRIBLE VOICE ACTINGIT'S A THOUSAND TIMES BETTER IN JAPANESE BECAUSE THEY AREN'T FAT LAZY AMERICANS
>>738564696I dunno, is an old game going to appeal to younger demographics who don't like old games?
>>738565075They have a franchise that they think has potential to attract a new audience if that audience gets exposed to it. They're otherwise not doing anything with it. The opinion of the people who didn't buy enough of this franchise in the past to prevent it from dying in the first place doesn't matter much other than indicating which of the games they should remake as a new entry point. The fact that it died means they're no too sure about it themselves, which explains the low effort of just remaking 64 with generic Unreal assets.
>>738565257>The opinion of the people who didn't buy enough of this franchise in the past to prevent it from dying in the first place doesn't matter muchCoulda fuckin' fooled me!Remake it for 3DS?Rehash it for WiiU?Remake it again?Seems like the only game they're confident in is the one your boomer boogeymen made famous. Whose fault is it that Nintendo failed to make appealing sequels? Not the fans, retard!
>>738564737thats just the average westoid dub since 2010literal AI would put more emotion into it
>>738564737Fuck off racist
>>738541682Now you hate Twitter Snoy?
>>738565838It's actually not fine though. Your taste in voices is factually bad and I hope you choose to avoid the topic of voice acting for the rest of your life.Kill yourself.
>>738565838nigger
>>738541939You mean Star Fox Command? Or Star Fox Zero?
>>738541618People who didn't like the designs weren't people who were going to buy Star Fox anyways. Much like Metroid, SF doesn't have a super big fanbase, but also much like Metroid, because there are so few games, with such long spans inbetween, the fans buy them anyways because the first game in a decade is better than nothing.
>>738547145>medal every normal mode stage>medal every hard mode>do the new challenges they addYou could easily get 12 hours out of this game and that's without touching online.
>>738547145>Nintendo finally does what everyone was asking for and goes back to NES/SNES/PS1 era GAMEplay focused releases where player skill matters, and simply ups the graphics a bit.>NDSgroes start bitching and moaning they actually wanted a bloated open world full of padding because muh content per dollar.You subhumans deserve nothing.
>>738558419Source on that Ankha?
>>738567191>everyone was asking for a remake
>>738541618Looks like Amazon it competing with walmart and matched Nintendo's digital price too.
Tendies will buy literally everything as long as it has the nintendo brand slapped to it
>>738564653They don't look like puppets. You're being gaslit.
>>738567596Then why did mario tennis flop?
>>738541618What else would you buy for Switch 2 lmao
>>738564653Switch 2 game sales are doing pretty bad right now. Look at how many launch games are still in the top 5. An Ice Climber reboot could get to the top of the Switch charts. The game is going to sell less than a million copies and once again everyone's going to be wondering why the franchise is dead (the common denominator is Nintendo's incompetence at managing it).
>>738567596>nintendo game flops!>tendies will buy anything!you guys can't keep the seething straight
>>738541618You know you can't buy Sw2 first party games from Amazon right?
>>738567596I'm just a Star Fox fan, I don't care about console war shit because I'm not 12 years old anymore and I have job. What I do care about is that Nintendo keeps fucking up one of my all time favorite game series and emotionally blackmailing the fans to buy the new game even if it sucks, or the series goes back into franchise jail. And our reward if we put up with the disappointing game and open our wallets for it is that the next game will be disappointing too.
What was the last new Nintendo IP?
>>738541618The designs look like shit but the rest of the game looks fine
>>738554676It's overpriced and the fact that it might be the babiest game Nintendo has ever put out probably has a factor too>>738554745>Plus it's fucking YOSHI you're talking about. Those games have always been doomed.The Yoshi games typically don't sell bad. Crafted World sold over 3 mil.
>>738562240And you can see this with a lot of people proudly proclaiming that they never played the Star Fox games but they don't see a problem with the new designs. Basically everyone is outing themselves as "the wider audience"
Nonono this was NOT how it was supposed to go, the new designs were supposed to kill Star Fox once and for all!
>>738565257They don't need to remake anything to achieve a new entry point, much less reuse the level designs.
>>738567890They made shit games, and fans responded by telling them they were shit, then they tried to use the WiiU gamepad to make a new game and nobody bought the WiiU.You should count your blessings that they try to keep this series alive instead of letting it rot like so many others.
It's furry slop, they will literally buy a pile of feces if it resembles a furry
>>738558319only $500? my local kike retailers charge almost $1000
>>738554620can you please stop making anti-semetic posts? you're making the marketing director cry
>>738568258Yep, and like all tourists they are going to destroy the place and then leave for the next fandom to infect.
>>738568949What's the point of making new games if I don't want any of them? The last actual new Star Fox game that I loved was Assault and that was over 20 years ago. The franchise isn't any deader to me if I skip Star Fox 2026 either way. I've been living with it being dead for decades, and the prospect of resurrecting it as a taxidermy zombie of Star Fox 64 doesn't exactly make me want to throw money at it.
>>738541682
I wish there were more girls in the game.
>>738570374After seeing what they've done to Katt, perhaps it's for the better that Krystal, Fay, and Miyu never show up.
>hate graphics whores>despise movie lovers who want more cutscenes in games>none of the new gameplay justifes the remake or the price tagI dont care about the designs. Nothing about the game is worth it.
So I've been replaying Zero on PC, and seriously... How can a game like this on superior hardware somehow have less locations and routes than SF64 which came out 20 years prior? What a downgrade.
I bet this looks great in 120 FPS.I also bet the mouse aim on the Landmaster stages feels great.
>>738541618I said I didn't like the designs I didn't say it won't sell well.
>>738571731Start Fox is the most mishandled series that Nintendo owns. People claim that Miyamoto is a genius, but the Star Fox series proves he's not.
>>738541682I look and sound like this
Did we really need another remake?
>>738572882This is Nintendo's way. Whenever a series is dead, remake it, then put out new shit for it. Just sucks for SF because it died multiple fucking times.
>>738572882Yes. I personally can't wait for the next remake 10 years from now, it's gonna be sick
>>738569278at the point you hate over half the franchise you cant call yourself a fan of said franchise, just saying
>>738573316meant for >>738569525
>>738554620>dungeons, secondary items, lock-and-key design were always bad anyway.youre aware the prime series is a spinoff, right?
