Re: Producer Of Soul Calibur VI Open To Game On Switch If It's Actually Possible
@thesilverbrick true Gamecube version of SC 2 sold 1,5 million on Gamecube, 2 million on PS2, and just 1 million on original Xbox. Switch could outsell PS4 version in Japan
Re: Review: Night Trap - 25th Anniversary Edition (Switch eShop)
@Misfit410 I want Phantasmagoria on Switch...A much better FMV game. Dunno if the original tapes still exist though (imagine a director's cut with more footage). If they could remake the awful CGI it would be great.
Re: id Software "Still Uncertain" If Rage 2 Would Work Ever On Nintendo Switch
@Findonovan95 and what make games that work only on New Switch leaving old Switch users behind? I still can't understand why new 3ds was able to play SNES games... (like Earthbound).and my old 3ds could not!!
Re: Video: Bandai Namco Releases New Japanese Trailer For Dragon Ball FighterZ
Looks cool! A game with all the bells and whistles of the PS4 version running on a handheld. I hope it sells good
Re: Shigeru Miyamoto Urges Game Developers To Embrace Subscription-Based Services
@Ralek85 Good points. Instagram wasn't making money for many years but what was more important was the growth of users. I don't think Netflix reached a saturation point in most of Europe. Its still on early stages in many countries. Also piracy (of tv series, movies, etc) is much higher in Europe than in US.
Anyway i agree that the business model is different. I just hope we will go to a subscription model in video games too. I think it will happen eventually (not completely) but not soon.
Re: Nintendo Was "Pumped" When Blizzard Pitched Diablo III For The Switch
Diablo III is one of the top 10 best selling video games of all time with over 30 million units total sales. Why not get pumped up getting it for the Switch?
Re: Switch Physical Game Sales Increase As Octopath Traveler Crowned July's Best-Selling Game
@Cosats well actually i meant 2018. Ok Pokemon and Smash at the end of the tunnel is great but its been a pretty slow year no? Switch still needs better 3d party support.
Re: Random: THQ Announces Let's Sing 2019 For Nintendo Wii
Wii sold over 100 million units. If i was president of Nintendo i would still support the system with updates, online functionality and e-shop. Its how you show respect for your customers.
Re: Miyamoto Calls On His Industry Peers To Deliver Games At Fixed Prices
Fixed prices on mobile is near dead. Fire Emblem f2p generates more than Mario, that should say something.
Re: Shigeru Miyamoto Urges Game Developers To Embrace Subscription-Based Services
@FragRed Microsoft's subscription service offers way more than Nintendo intends to, thats for sure!
Re: Switch Physical Game Sales Increase As Octopath Traveler Crowned July's Best-Selling Game
The Switch is predominantly sustaining sales with games like Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey - all of which were released during 2017. Wer're near end of 2018. Evergreen titles got legs for sure...but that doesn't make up for a lackluster second year.
Re: Shigeru Miyamoto Urges Game Developers To Embrace Subscription-Based Services
Well a standard fee (like 10-15$) for month for full access to all titles (like Netflix and Spotify) would be a new and more affordable way to play games. Is the industry ready for this though? Don't think most developers will benefit from such model.
Musicians get paid peanuts for Spotify Still they embrace the publicity and get money to pay the bills from concerts. Game developers don't have that luxury
Subscription service to only play 35 year old video games (NES) is garbage though
Re: Video: Check Out The 2018 Indie Highlights For Switch Video Right Here
Not shovelware but not all quality games.Overpresentation of "indies" can't hide the lack of 3d party AAA games.
Re: Football Manager 2019 Scores A Release On Nintendo Switch
@penamiguel92 Well there's a reason its the most popular sport on the world for the last 100 years.. Its the USA that should consider why rest of the world don't care about Baseball or American Football
Re: Random: Amazon's Gaming Pre-Order Discount Cancellation Sparks Nintendo Sale Surge
Pokemon Lets go pre orders lower than Metroid Prime 4? The most popular Nintendo franchise vs one of the less successful ones. A game that is just 3 months away vs a game that may come out in 2020. Strange
Re: Football Manager 2019 Scores A Release On Nintendo Switch
Touch edition is 9,99 euro on app store. Even with "Switch tax" more than 15 euro/$ isn't a nice way to treat your customers.
Re: Microids Reveals Syberia 3, Moto Racer 4 And The Bluecoats: North vs South For Switch
The original North and South was the most fun game on Amiga. Specially on local multiplayer (player vs player) mode! It was strategy before Command and Conquer and Age of Empires. Alas the so called remake (does it even have an official licence? don't think it does) sucks big time. Any remake should copy the original frame per frame with updated graphics.
Re: Publishers Are Refusing To Sign Velocity 2X Sequel, Dev Asks For Switch Players' Support
Its in the vein of Metroidvania so its a natural fit for Switch. I played it on PS Vita. Many interesting ideas...a mess in some areas. It worth a chance.
Re: Ubisoft Will Not Release Rainbow Six Siege On The Nintendo Switch
Well thats very bad. I would love though to see a spin off Rayman Donovan Six Siege.
Re: Grab Discounts On Classic Pokémon Titles With The Latest North American My Nintendo Rewards
I was playing Pokemon Card Game back in the day but never played the GBC game. Is it any good? Does it give justice to the card game? i find it hard cause of the serious limitations of the hardware. Wish they could make a new TCG for Switch (or 3ds)
Re: Diablo III Eternal Collection Officially Announced For Nintendo Switch
Guys stop asking for Starcraft. Starcraft wil suck at Switch as much as it did on n64 cause of the controls. You can't play RTS without mouse (or maybe a trackpad). There was a version of Red Alert on iPad on the early days but it was a failure. Red Alert, Age of Empires series, Starcraft. All great games but you can't play them properly on consoles.
Re: Diablo III Eternal Collection Officially Announced For Nintendo Switch
Great. Now bring a version of Vanilla WoW on Switch!
Re: Rumour: Leak Signals Blizzard's Diablo 3 Will Unleash Hell On Switch This Year
@Crono1973 Diablo series isn't another action RPG. Its the series that defines modern action role playing games and the best game on its category. 40$ price would be fair but anyway its Diablo 3 on a handheld, a dream come true for many. I own original game and expansion on pc but i will pick this one too
Re: Become A Ninja Master When The Messenger Arrives On Switch eShop Later This Month
I just read last part of the title "messenger arrives at Switch" and i thought it was about facebook messenger
Re: Nintendo Shares Image Of Super Mario Bros. 3 In Action On Switch
In 8-9 years we may be even be able to play SNES games online on Switch U! Can hardly wait
Re: Nintendo Reveals New Switch Bundle Exclusive To Walmart In The US
1-2 Switch should be pre-installed for free to each Switch sold. Its not much more than a tech demo. Not a bad bundle though
Re: Japanese Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu And Eevee Pre-Orders Include Figures And Exclusive Art Book
I think that the more we're getting closer to release date, and advertisement and word of mouth spreads on the preorders will get stronger and stronger. Its pokemon lets not rush into conclusions that it will not be a smash hit... I'm afraid the "spin-off" flavour kinda confuses people about the nature of the game.
Re: Horrifying FMV Game Night Trap Is Arriving On The Switch eShop Next Week
Ok the game is total garbage but 10$ for a retro port is acceptable. I'm still not over World ends with you full price...
Re: Nintendo's Recent Legal Action Against ROM-Sharing Sites Scares Major Player Into Removing Downloads
Ok, business as usual. There are always other ways and bays...
Re: The World Ends With You: Final Remix Secures October Switch Release Date
Really asking 59,99$ for a 11 year old DS game, when Stardew Valley cost just 15$? I bought it for 8 euro on iOS (square-enix sucks at updates and support but at least it still works). I wouldn't pay more than that. this is outrageous
Re: Square Enix's Bravely Default Twitter Account Is Teasing New Games Again
Bravely Third. (But i want FF XV or VII)
Re: Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth Will Be Released In Japan On 29th November
I bought Shadow of the labyrinth at sale and played like 30 to 40 minutes.... The blurred/lowres graphics kinda made me dizzy so i turned it off. I don't think i will buy the sequel. I'm still a big persona fan though
Re: SEGA's Latest Financial Report Reveals Slump In Sales
Sega sucks atm. Fangame developers showed them how it gets done. Current company got no soul. Its only the trademarks and ip's atm. So Nintendo should just buy Sega and get over it.
Re: Hardware Review: Does The SNK Neo Geo Mini Outclass Nintendo's Classic Editions?
some of you are missing the point. This is just a collector's item. See it as a homage to the legacy coin op machines. Its not the most practical way for retro gaming. I think it looks cool.
Re: Nintendo Releases Complete Sales Figures For Its Million-Selling Switch Games
Really impressed with the numbers for a Zelda game. For a comparison Skyward Sword on Wii sold just 3.96m. Now it competes with Mario for the top spot. Surely a breath of fresh air to the franchise. And let's not forget it was a game that was designed for a dying system! (wii u)
Re: Nintendo Has Sold 19.67 Million Switch Consoles To Date
From techcrunch (can't agree more):
"The next part seems to be the hardest for Nintendo. Now that the Switch is a success, Nintendo needs to maintain it by building and supporting a robust ecosystem of games. And Nintendo cannot be the source of all the best games. Nintendo must court developers and publishers and keep them engaged in the advantages of the Switch gaming system. If it can do that, the Switch has a chance to be a generational product like the Wii before it."
Re: Wall Street Analyst Warns Of Slowing Nintendo Switch Sales
@Aozz101x You're god damn right they are!
Re: Nintendo Has Sold 19.67 Million Switch Consoles To Date
a year on year drop after only the second year suggests momentum is slowing. Nintendo needs to stand up to the challenge and surprise us again. A price drop, streaming apps, gamecube games emulation, new third party games and exclusive third party games would help.
Re: The Nintendo Switch Is Headed To Turkey But Will Cost Customers Almost $500
Hope our neighbors in Turkey sooner than later will join EU so they don't have to deal with this crap anymore.
Re: Wall Street Analyst Warns Of Slowing Nintendo Switch Sales
Guys we all want Switch to be a major success like Wii. But this won't happen if Nintendo stays greedy and lazy. 2017 was a great year but did 2018 Switch slow as hell line up meet your expectations?
Re: Switch Retail Game Sales In Japan For This Year Have Surpassed The Five Million Mark
I still find the lack of quality 3d party games disturbing. PS4 sold a million more games. Ok, its got a larger install base but thats not the only reason. Its got great 3d party support
Re: FIFA 19 Improvements Will Be Immediately Noticeable In Switch Version
If they port it to frostbite and somehow make it run smoothly then it will be a day one purchase for me.
Re: Taiko: Drum Master Charges Straight To Number One In The Japanese Charts
The highest non Nintendo entry is at number 13.... I admit though that Detroit: Become Human is the game i want to play more out of all these! On more serious note Mario Tennis is holding pretty well.
Re: The Switch Accounted For 52% Of Sonic Mania Plus' Launch Week Sales
@Anguspuss well it was a sleeper hit for ages in digital so its not exactly a new release. Even Minecraft Switch retail wasn't huge. Sonic Mania 2 with the right promotion can be massive
Re: Guide: New Nintendo Switch Games Releasing In 2018
Too many games but most of these are cheap shovelware
Re: Octopath Traveler Slips In UK Charts As Crash Bandicoot Takes Fourth Consecutive Top Spot
@Knuckles-Fajita UK is not just 1 of over 200 global economies. In many aspects its the unofficial capital of video games in Europe.
Re: Octopath Traveler Slips In UK Charts As Crash Bandicoot Takes Fourth Consecutive Top Spot
@Ralizah Good one. But PS4 and Sony are doing what they can. PS Store is cheaper and with much better discounts that Nintendo Shop. PS4 price already had several price drops and we're expecting another one. And they got enough exclusives. Nintendo can do better no?
Re: Octopath Traveler Slips In UK Charts As Crash Bandicoot Takes Fourth Consecutive Top Spot
UK proves that Switch still got a long way to go to reach Wii success. Need more games, a more competitive strategy, a price drop etc.
Re: Square Enix Issues Apology After Underestimating Huge Octopath Traveler Demand
@Axlroselm i want stupid FF. XV (not mobile version) and FF7 remake. I'm not the only one
