Game key cards and $70 first party releases are still cancer.

GKCs are just downloadable games you can resell
>>
>>741644182
I don't want downloadable games.
>>
>>741644238
then the game would be $20 more expensive to pay for the cartridge memory
>>
>>741644362
Fine by me.
>>
>>741644085
Game prices aren't coming down and Nintendo won't be the ones pushing the charge for higher games. They didn't even start the $70 prices. It will be Sony or Westerns companies that solidify $80+ prices.

do you not game on pc then?

>>741643912
It's still far weaker than a PS5 and about to cost $550 though?

>>741644971
None of the exclusive games the PS5 is running are worth a fuck. Their all dei woke propaganda slop. Nintendo will keep winning because of that fact too.

>>741644085
I'm sure you'll conveniently ignore the GTA6 pricetag once it drops and keep blaming Nintendo for idiotic prices

Any game not on the Switch 2 that's on PS5 might as well be exclusive

>>
>>741645320
I won't, I'm not anti-Nintendo at all. Quite the opposite, actually. I just believe games are too expensive now, simple as.
>>
>>741644085
Isn’t every ps5 game a “key card” game since you have to download the whole game onto the system to play it despite owning the disc?

>>741644085

Tell that to sony in the ps3 era when they shipped fucking codes in a box.

at least you can resell GKC.
>>
>>741646359
Why does it need to download at all? What’s the point in buying physical if you still have to eat up storage space to play?
>>
>>741646642
because bluray read speed are pathetic and the game needs to be on a SSD if you want fast load times
>>
Nintendo console = Zelda tax. Nothing else they have on the machine will be worth playing either 1st party or 3rd party.
>>
>>741646726
But why buy the physical games at all then when all they seem to do is give a worse experience with no real benefit?
>>
>>741646886
because you own the game and can sell it/trade it/gift it
if you buy digital the game is stuck on your PSN account
are you pretending to be retarded?
>>
>>741646814
Nintendo EPD makes the best games annually/bi annually still in the 2020's. If you disagree you simply have shit taste. Capcom is close runner up. Nintendo also has Fromsoft making exclusives for them too.
>>
>>741644362
Show me where this is happening.
>>
>>741646886
since your a tendie why dont you just buy the game in the eshop? why are you even defending ck key cards?
>>
>>741647010
it's always hilarious to see this cope
>>
>>741647129
I hate baby shit and anime weeb shit. To me Nintendo is only useful for Zelda and nothing else.
>>
>>741643912
You can still be the second cheapest and be too expensive.
>>
>>741647304
and the cope is what exactly?
>>
>>741647569
It's not fair that your purchases of physical games retain value while my digital purchase I spend $60 on is immediately valued at $0.
>>
>>741647682
well then dont buy digital games like a retard

I still shit on nintendo for being
>"out of touch", "greedy" and "slimy"
not necessarily about their price at face value, in fact I don't think it's a bad value in of itself
It's how the wntire system is structured, and it's entire business model I detest, and very likely won't get a switch 2 BECAUSE it's reverse engineered in such a way
>>
>>741647174
I’m not defending them, I’m annoyed as shit by them, but at least their first party games (and limited 3rd party games) are actually on the cards and can just load in without taking up space on the system. Doesn’t matter what game you buy on Xbox or ps5 you’re stuck with having to have the space for the game on the system. Do the games load faster when you have the physical discs or anything? Or are you just stuck with the same exact load times with or without?
>>
>>741643912
Yeah, the cube is a much worse offer than a switch 2. Congratulation, you won not falling for the biggest gaming scam in the 2020s, just the runner up.
>>
Nintendo has always been the best company. Just get a PC for piracy as well and there you go, get all the games you want
>>
>>741644475
Remind me who started the $80 shit?
>>
>>741644085
>Game key cards
Instalation shit has been mandatory since the late PS3-360 era.
It was an option even on the PSP.
>>
>>741648725
snoy desu. At least here in Europe they did anyways. Prices on PSN have been 80 Euro for several years.
>>
>>741644085
>Game key cards
Retarded argument, all 1st party Nintendo games are on cart, only 2nd and 3rd party games are key cards and key cards exist because third party publishers would rather you front the cost then spending a bit more for actual carts
>>741644085
>$70 first party releases are still cancer
Offset by the fact that some games cost less digitally and variable pricing. Starfox you can get for $50 and Rhythm Heaven you can get for $40.
Also I bet you'd buy GTA6 for $100 and kiss rockstars taint for only pricing it $100

Was prime 4 a key card? Mario kart and donkey Kong weren’t
>>
>>741648886
>all 1st party Nintendo games are on cart
Except Pokopia and more to come.
>It's not
It is. Even still, nintendo first party is not the appeal you think it is. Over-valuing Nintendo games is somethig nintendo and nintendo fans tend to do, but the reality is not even they care about these games a week after launch, nintendo games fall off the map in relevance almost immediately, they are not good games and the fact they offer them on non key cards is not a bonus, it's that third parties are given the option to use key cards that is the detriment.

You know this already, I am calling your bluff. You are an inherently dishonest fanboy faggot.

>>741643912
Nintendo’s bullshit is just the latest round in a string of anti-consumer bullshit that has been going on for years. The difference is that they used to get a pass from autists because the games were at least worth checking out, but they’ve started phoning that shit in too.

Your parasocial relationship with a brand is unhealthy, and you need to get a life.
>>
>>741649239
>they’ve started phoning that shit in too
wrong
>>
>>741649095
>Except Pokopia
Please learn to fucking read, Pokopia is a second party game developed by a third party dev. Also Game freak is second party and they would price games $100 if they could.
>>741649027
You can buy FE for $70 if you get it digitally or if you preorder the physical game at Amazon or Walmart.
If you pay $80 for a game when given multiple ways to pay less you're just retarded at this point.
>>
>>741643912
The Switch and Switch 2 have always been the cheapest consoles with the cheapest online, yet Nintendo is the only one being called greedy.

Yes. Some PS3 / X360 games have mandatory installation.

People called Nintendo greedy when they released the 3DS for $250. Nobody did it after the price cut. It turns out people call you greedy when you do greedy things, and stop when you don't.

Tendies for whatever reason don’t understand that /v/ has shat on greedy companies like EA and Activision for the longest time. But when /v/ shits on their friends the average tendie has a conniption. As if Nintendo should be immune.

probably not happening during its lifespan. the hacker gene is mostly suppressed in the younger generation thanks to brain-raping meds, porn, and an abundance of other ways in which they can scratch the tism itch. also doesn't help that some switch hackers got jailtime (which was entirely their stupid faults for not being anonymous while doing illegal shit) and the console itself isn't cheap

1st place is PC

Pokopia is published and distributed by Nintendo like all Pokémon games. It was their decision to put it on the game key card. The publisher decides how to price and release a game not the developer.

Pokemon and the IP is owned by The Pokemon Company. All decisions are made by them and Nintendo pretty much lets them do whatever

You have to prove this claim true.

>>
>>741655507
Gen 10, but it won't be any good.
The last 3 or so games have been real stinkers.
>>
I mean I like the console and it feels more premium than the switch 1.
That key card shit and the introduction of 80 dollar games are the ultimate kike insult tho.
It's frustrating cause what the fuck else am I gonna get ? I like the hybrid aspect of the console.
>>
>>741643912
I've been enjoying my switch 2. Mostly playing switch 1 games, but its so much nicer on the big screen at the higher resolution with boost mode.

>Buy second hand games
>They're more than half price
>You get a cheaper game, Nintendo doesn't get your money
Simple as.
>>
>>741655803
Yeah, I can work around the 80 dollar price tag since jrpgs aren't usually that expensive and I can wait for sales or second hand.
What's annoying to me are the key cards. I get no benefits out of them. I've got a pc for digital, I thought having a console is all about physical.
>>
>>741656013
You buying and supporting PC gaming is the reason physical has been dying. Can't have your cake and eat it too.
>>
>>741656013
>What's annoying to me are the key cards
So don't buy them?
Or again, get them second hand, don't give Nintendo money for shit you don't want.

NTA but I bought some Steam games and played some (last I played a lot of was the Elite Dangerous) and then stopped playing for a while and Steam won't let me log in and I have to dig out some credit card from like 20 years ago that I might not even have any more to prove it's me and I was like "fuck it" and now I just play old vidya.

New games are movie games, pixel remakes, rehashes, something Part 19, etc. Fuck that shit. I've been playing SMB on the C64 instead. It's based. At least it's impressive they ported it so well compared to just running the same game on a shartphone like the Switch / Switch 2.

Nothing you said here is relevant to our discussion

It is relevant. No matter how many games a person has in their Steam library, who cares if they don't play 'em?
