So the virtual console you gotta pay monthly to play on some cloud shyt?

Or you can download the games to your HD and have em forever?

Or both?

I checked some sites about it but couldn't catch what I was reading...

no one bought the wii u games because the wii u was trash. its just that simple imo. doesn't indicate a greater than normal draw on the switch for those ports

speaking of ports/localization - its crazy how nintendo can't even get yakuza :dead:



Exactly. It is that simple.

Nah, you don't keep the games. And I don't think anybody is gonna pay monthly tbh when the full year is pretty cheap.

Things been mad quiet for the Switch lately or is it just me?
It feels like they had a hot streak for a moment and then completely disappeared.
Maybe too much focus on those cardboard labo joints or whatever.
Things are clearly gearing up for E3.
I honestly don't think there is a single game announced past July so we should expect some surprises. Smash, Yoshi and Fire Emblem are 2018 for sure. Pokemon seems to be 2018 as well. There's also the Star Fox racing game rumor (and people say this game 100% exists, just might not be a 2018 game) and Metroid Prime Trilogy HD Remaster rumor. It had been almost too quiet though.

the Sushi Striker game gives me puyo puyo vibes, and that's cool. I also can kinda understand why it's expensive with all the voice acting and animation going on in it, but I can't pay damn near 80 bucks for this thing.

I just hope they show new shyt (not games that came out several years ago on other systems but are "new" to Nintendo platforms) and spent next to no time on games we already know about. There's no way Nintendo could possibly go on to the fall and holiday season with just Smash, Yoshi, Fire Emblem and Pokemon and expect to sell 20 million Switches by next March.

I need Fire Emblem on the Switch. Was about to buy Fire Emblem Warriors yesterday until patience quelled me.

That Mario aces demo threw me off. Booted it up only to find it's time sensitive. June 2nd.


Anyone getting SF collection for Switch?

I think Nintendo Labo was their 'big' idea that would meet the 20 million forecast. But that thing kinda flopped though.

They've had very little time to make the next Pokemon game. So I expect the next game to be underwhelming as fukk.
