Additionally, I'm a miser who doesn't like paying full retail price for games. Mahoning posted:3/31 is the end of Nintendo’s fiscal year. I wouldn’t be surprised if this was all just some bullshit to appease their investors before that big meeting in like 2 weeks. That didn't even occur to me, but that makes a lot of sense: get people to panic buy the game in order to maximize yearly profits, then turn around and do additional printings later.

I'm disappointed that they're just ports and not remasters. I was pumped for Galaxy HD, was looking forward to playing a more polished Sunshine, and figured that a Mario 64 remaster while maintaining the graphical style was more than possible, going off the retro costume in Odyssey. Also I owned a Wii U and I played Mario 3D World to death and I have no desire to ever play it again. Also Galaxy 2 is objectively better than Galaxy 1. The hell is wrong with some of you?

I’ve always bought the DS family of systems from the mega chonky double thicc original up to the last one I bought, the New 3DS XL. I dug my collection out of the closet, I haven’t touched these games in like 5-10 years and probably a lot longer for some of them. Here’s the collection! Fyi you were an early 3DS buyer who paid $300 for the original 3ds. Nintendo cut the price soon after release but gave early adopters 10 GBA games and 10 other various games. The GBA games were never otherwise released for the3ds

Well, I am a complete sucker who's locked in preorders for the Game and Watch, Super Mario 3D All-Stars (despite owning all three games), Super Mario 3D World (despite owning it on the WiiU), and the Cat Mario/Peach amiibo two-pack  .

I figured out why they're going to delist SM3dAS next March. Next June Nintendo is going to release NSO N64 to coincide with the 25th anniversary of the N64. Super Mario 64 and Pilotwings 64 will be the launch titles for it. They will also be the only two titles ever released for it. Then in 2022 Nintendo is going to release Super Mario Galaxy 1+2 to coincide with the 15th anniversary of Super Mario Galaxy. Even though the Galaxy 1 part will be unchanged from SM3dAS they'll still sell it for $60. Sunshine will vanish after next March. Nintendo won't even acknowledge it existed.

LarksTongues posted:Thread I need help! I cant decide between Kentucky route zero or obra dinn. Both are on sale and are piquing my interest. Can anyone who've played either help me spend my eshop bucks? I own both of these but I've been saving KRZ for a drought so I've only played Obra Dinn so far. Obra Dinn has among the best premise and presentation of a game ever imo but it's non-linear which is nice in a freedom sense but it can also mean that you solve all the interesting deaths first and get kind of an anti-climactic experience, and the extra chapter doesn't do much to alleviate this unfortunately. Also this is a personal opinion that I doubt is shared by all but monster deaths were boring and repetitive after the first few. I think I wanted it to be more of a mystery game than it was. Despite this, the good aspects of it are so good that I think it's one of the best games on the Switch and well worth a purchase if you get the chance, but you should trust the opinion of someone who's played both over mine.

It turns it from a stage play into taking place in an actual world with detailed backgrounds. Different, but not ruined.

Rabelais D posted:The thing that interests me about games generally is seeing developers come out with new worlds to explore and new ideas to try out; it's all about the imagination. Hi! I never owned a Nintendo 64, and I was able to get a new gamecube game once a year. I never played 99% of Nintendo's 3d classics on the first system, and maybe 40% of the classics on their other system. On the Wii, I was able to afford a new game every six months, although yes, I did buy Galaxy and enjoyed it a fair bit. so 66% of this collection's content is 100% new to me outside of playing around a bit at a friend's house and such (and naturally, only a bit as they are both single player games). Nintendo has 11 development studios currently working in the middle of a pandemic to produce a lot of titles, the advent of HD slapped them silly as most of those developed handheld games and such. Also, I refuse to pirate most games because I find that even nintendo 64 games aren't flawlessly emulated and gamecube emulation is an objective joke. Thanks!

Here's the side by side graphical comparison for Mario 64 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6EntWrvOX38 Compared against an HDMI modded N64. Aside from the resolution bump it's quite clear they replaced the textures with uncompressed versions of the originals that look a lot cleaner.

Getting old games onto the Switch is functionally the last time they should have to ever do it, because the Switch is built on sane architecture rather than an esoteric console's. Anything that works on the Switch should work in perpetuity on newer machines with the same basic architecture.

It's not an either or thing with remakes/ports. The amount of effort these take is miniscule compared to new full games. You're not gonna get Super Mario Odyssey 2 any faster if Nintendo doesn't hire somebody to do some ports.

Infinitum posted:I preordered this morning because I knew it would sell out almost instantly because Nintendo only make these things in small quantities. In hindsight I really should've just set an alarm for early this morning to make drat sure I got one instead of getting lucky like I did. Those things are likely never gonna see a store shelf, they'll just be devoured by preorders. Also, if you think about it, this thing is basically the original pitch of Game & Watch finally brought to life 30 years late; Your favourite Nintendo games, in portable form!!  (Yes, I know, GBA and 3DS versions, etc, but I mean the Game & Watch specifically)Infinitum posted:Surprised we didn't see a new batch of NES Mini's announced at the same time. The NES/SNES Mini's aren't entirely Mario machines, plus the catalogue's all on the Switch now so there's zero reason for the expense in a COVID-impacted logistic chain when they could just make more Switches. Plus the factory time that would create them is likely what is making suitable quantities of Game & Watches.

The catalogue of the classic.consoles.is absolutely not all on the Switch. There's three important square games missing (SMRPG, FF6, FF1 for laughs). Plus Earthbound. Edit: no Chrono Trigger, what the gently caress was I thinking there.

It's also entirely possible that the licensing contracts Nintendo made with 3rd party publishers such as Capcom, Konami and Square were only for a couple years and they didn't bother with trying to renegotiate for another run of minis.
