Yeah this was the deal the US had on Amazon a little while ago.

Nice to see we're getting it as well, as I've been meaning to get some extra joycons for a little bit now.

I have a physical copy of Stern Pinball Arcade and it's a mix of both good and bad. I mostly play High Roller Casino and the Mustang one. The Last Action Hero table is hot garbage.

Lord help me, I'm fixing to spend money on pinball.

Do they ever run sales on these bundles or is everything pretty set? Is there a recommended bundle or just whatever looks fun?
I could go for some pinball too but these pinball apps always confuse and scare me so I've never pulled the trigger :ohdear: Mostly I've just played babby's pinball like Pokémon Pinball and the like, but I like those a lot.

If you find anything good, report back? The Switch seems like a good machine for pinball (it's a good machine for everything)

Come to think of it, because of the DS Castlevanias the only thing that bothered me in Hollow Knight was that you only ever use the one weapon. I realize that the game is built around this fact so it's not an actual complaint or anything, but one of the things I really liked about the Castlevania games was the different weapon types and how their swing, delay, etc. differed (axes are the best, fite me)

Nintendo released their six months earnings report a couple of hours ago, and so far Nintendo's train keeps on pushing.

Nintendo posted:

For the six months ended September 30, 2018, Nintendo Switch hardware continued to be quite popular, reaching 5.07 million units sold (3.7% increase on a year-on-year basis). Software like Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze sold 1.67 million units after its May release, and Mario Tennis Aces sold 2.16 million units after it was released in June. Sales of other popular titles that were released during previous fiscal years and titles released by other software publishers continued to grow, bringing the total number of million-seller titles during this period to 9, including the titles of other software publishers. The total software sales for Nintendo Switch reached 42.13 million units (91.3% increase on a year-on-year basis).

I don't expect anything more substantial for Mario Odyssey beyond slowly releasing whatever remaining costumes were patched in alongside the Balloon mode, Mario Kart 8 will probably only get minor additions like the Toy-Con stuff, and Splatoon 2 is wrapping up new content this year with events concluding in July.

I'd love to be wrong, though!

The big test will be future games like Smash and Animal Crossing.

They said DLC for current games though so I can’t really imagine what other games that could be for.

By and large, Nintendo's DLC has been leaps and bounds above the competition's. When $12 nets you Mario Kart 8 half over again, it's pretty incredible. Their free updates have been rad too. I'm looking forward to whatever's coming down the pipes.

Their forecast is unchanged. Pokemon and smash come out these next couple months, and that's where they're expecting to make some sales.

They are really counting on Smash and Pokemon, a little less than 40 million by march is a lot of Switches. Tbh I kinda doubt they'll make numbers like that, but they just passed lifetime sales of the gamecube and will breeze past the n64 in that time so they're definitely doing alright. Next sales milestone to beat after that is the SNES at a little less than 50 million.

Breath of the Wild dlc was the only Nintendo dlc I was disappointed by, it was all either QOL stuff that should have been in the base game, cosmetic stuff, or more shrines in a game that already had 120 shrines.

I guess master mode would be cool if I was a masochist and also didn't own any other games

Tune in 11/1 for roughly 40 minutes of new information in the final Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Direct before the game’s launch, hosted by Director Masahiro Sakurai. The Direct will be followed by a post-show Nintendo Treehouse: Live presentation, featuring live gameplay of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! and Pokémon: Let’s Go, Eevee!, Yoshi’s Crafted World, and Diablo III: Eternal Edition.

So the Treehouse basically counts as a general direct, it seems.
