Anyone see the reports of a "major software releases" in the Nintendo fiscal year? I'm guessing the new Zelda and a new Mario Kart along with the Super Nintendo Switch.

I just hope it's backwards compatible with original Switch games so I can upgrade without having to use the old one for already purchased games. Basically, I want to buy a Super Nintendo Switch, connect it to my Nintendo account, and redownload the Switch games I've already bought.

It will function like the iterations of the DS or 3DS. I anticipate it being essentially the same console/store/interface.

Yup! I bet it will even have a transfer process to manually move games/saves via Wi-Fi or cable.

Forbes is saying the Nintendo Switch 64 Plus is gonna run you $400. I'll admit that gives me pause.

You got a link?

They're gonna have to pack in some games to make that worth it when you can buy a $400 PS5.

No sorry I saw it on YouTube. RGT85 is my video game guy.

I’m really happy about the extent to which the Steam store underbelly has infected Nintendo’s market. Digging through the “perennially on sale for less than $10” bin on the Switch feels a lot like gaming in the NES era: quirky, sometimes unforgiving games that can be as fearless as they are quaint.

Last night I couldn’t sleep, so I got a little high and played Fatum Betula. An angel appeared onscreen and told me I was “going to hell in real life.” It was a spectacular Nintendo gaming experience.

I dunno if I should be asking what game that was or what it was you were high on

Nintendo eStore pricing is all over the damn place. There are games that were $30 NZD down to $3 that I still wouldn't touch.

I feel the same way.

Intrigued. A Gollum game coming to switch etc. You gave to escape barad due etc
It looks brilliant.

Still having trouble sleeping, so I spent $6 a few days ago and got Tharsis (space mission crisis management meets Yahtzee) and Hard West (half the time it's like if they made an X-Com-style game about the final third of Young Guns, the rest it becomes a 'choices matter' branching storyline where the devil walks the old west and is after your soul).

I'm enjoying both....Tharsis is a cool blend of conflict management and traditional dice games, though I have admittedly never yet survived more than 8 rounds of crises. I have also committed rather lot of cannibalism along the way. Hard West's story side is uneven, but I really enjoy the battles. I tried to steal a shotgun during the CYOA section and got shot in the ass. It left me with a limp that I had to work around in every subsequent fight sequence.

My cowboy has two assholes and my space captain et his crew. Six dollars well spent.

Finding a bad game sitting in the Nintendo cheap seats seems a lot less interesting to me than finding a good game there, I guess? But YouTube gonna YouTube.

Monopoly for the Nintendo Switch is a faithful recreation of the classic board game, in that I can own literally the entire board and still be unable to win.

Forty-five minutes later

Is this worth getting?

Was this a PS2 game?
