ikanreed posted:Why is it still impossible to find a switch for sale? Because demand is greater than supply. It always is this early in a console's life. It has been out less than a month, ramping up production of a new consumer electronics product takes time. Despite all of that, people keep popping into this thread saying they finally got one. So its not impossible.

Bloodplay it again posted:Prime was great when you could split it with 3-4 other people for $20/yr but paying the full Prime price now isn't worth it unless you buy a ton from them every year. I used it primarily for video games and the drastic jump in price ($10.99/mo? I mean, sure, if Amazon Prime was only good for discounts on video games, then yeah, your price breakdown makes sense. But, there's like a ton of other benefits to it, not the least of which is evident in this very thread on this very day....they're selling their Switch stock to Prime members only.

even yearly is $100 if you pay in full) means you need to buy 8-9 $60 games every calendar year to save the cost of Prime. GCU at Best Buy is $30 for two years (less than 3 full-priced titles in two years to recoup buy-in) and doesn't end after the game has been on sale for 2 weeks like Amazon. I had Prime for almost 10 years straight but recently dropped it because Amazon's customer service blows and haven't looked back. Plus, it's frustrating that Amazon won't get their poo poo together to rid the site of third-party scammers.

You know why I think the Switch will outsell the Wii? Because I am actually contemplating buying a second Switch to make things like playing Mario Kart at family parties and stuff more fun. Between that and the 3DS model of "let's make a new special edition and/or hardware revision every 6 months" means that people will end up with more than one Switch.

TFRazorsaw posted:The majority of core titles are still going to be 50 to 60 dollars, because it's a home console. That depends. Imagine if they were going to release, let's say, a sequel to Link Between Worlds on the Switch. Would it be priced at $60 or would it be priced closer to Link Between Worlds? Switch becoming the de facto portable console doesn't mean that all games will instantly be cheaper.

Saying Galaxy did everything M64 did but better is ludicrous since it doesn't do AT ALL the one thing that M64 is known for and pioneered: 3D open world gaming. Galaxy is closer in concept to Super Mario 3D World than M64. Odyssey is continuing along the 3D open world gaming path of M64 and Sunshine.

Can Nintendo just rejuvenate the New Super Mario Bros series by incorporating all of the elements from SMB2? It's the stepchild of Mario games.

Waltzing Along posted:Is the UK SNES Classic PAL? If so, do all these people in the US realize they won't be able to use it? PAL is an analog standard and is no longer really relevant for any new hardware except when referring to PAL regions. The SNES Classic uses HDMI not RCA or any other analog technology.

I played the test punch and I had fun, but I also have no urge to continue playing it because it wasn't amazing and I don't feel like I'd get a ton out of it. But I don't normally like fighting games. Conversely, I played the Splatoon 2 test fire and had a ton of fun and can't wait for it to come out.

Obviously Snipperclips, but I'm trying to find something to play in short bursts with 8 year olds that isn't Mario Kart or ARMS. There's a lot of good stuff on the eshop but it seems mainly single player. (and Fast RMX but that didn't appeal to them on Wii U.) Puyo Puyo Tetris is fun but maybe not 8 year old fun.

Just a reminder of how terrible the Wii U was... The Switch version of Breath of the Wild would be the 9th best selling Wii U game of all time with it's March sales numbers alone.
