That was kind of my point about not having Game Cube and Wii games available. They are essentially pushing people towards illegal mods and roms, because they aren't making beloved games available on their current system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Yeah, but does someone need to be enough of a jerk to post about them on Nintendos own post about the online service? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Wilson Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 Nintendo will forever refuse to do things like this correctly, for reasons the world will never understand. That's too expensive, really, unless they plan on doing monthly updates which... they haven't been doing even though the games they could add is a massively long list. So you'd want to assume "for $50 a year, they will add games more often!" but there is no reason based on their history that they will do that. That being said, I'll still buy it but I am going in expecting little to nothing going forward. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eoae Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 I feel like $50 a year is rather reasonable. I'll end up with Switch Online eventually. But, yeah, they're going to have to keep adding games and offer me something I can't get on the Wii U virtual console or the Sega Genesis mini. Streaming is not my favorite way to play so they're going to have to start digging some of the less obvious suspects out of the N64 catalog. Call me when you upload Mischief Makers. My wife still plays Animal Crossing almost daily so she's thrilled about the AC updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 As a middle aged guy with no dependents, $4.17 a month does not seem like an outrageous price.

Its not that I (and most people) can't afford it, but with video game services, people are always going to compare it to what else is available. XBox Gold and PS Plus are similar in price, but they add multiple games per month, including (usually) at least one recent game. Also their online services are generally seen as more robust anyway. Its like when Netflix raises their prices a dollar, its not that its breaking the bank but people then go "WELL HULU IS ONLY _____" and chaos ensues. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted October 20, 2021 Author Share Posted October 20, 2021 Someone is gonna have to blink again I can't imagine it will be Bungie because us Destiny folks are already slogging through a never ending season and tension over the new pricing are bubbling up so I doubt they want to push back Witch Queen any further Honestly - if I was Saints Row - I would get the fuck out of Dodge.

Release on April 1 or something If they are not risk averse, they'd keep their current schedule. Saints Row & Eldeen Ring can both champion the D2 player that is close to clawing his own eyes out after a typically suspect Bungie launch. We both know that no one will play Witch Queen on Launch Day. Server maintenance will take at least thirty five hours.

RIPPA Posted October 21, 2021 Author Share Posted October 21, 2021 Honestly - if I was any game, I would want out of February just because Horizon Forbidden West and Elden Ring are probably the two biggest games scheduled for the first 6 months of next year (you could argue in addition to Starfield, of the year) If you look at the list on Wiki - from April on, it is a barren wastefield (outside of Starfield and I think most of us think that ain't happening) Still releasing in February is just being stubborn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Horizon is the tent pole of that release schedule and D2 is in the uncomfortable position of either going live or dragging out a never ending season another two or three weeks. If I were KoF, I'd go ahead with launch but Saints Row and Eldeen Ring should take some time to beat, so I'd give Horizon at least two months of player time before going on the market. Sifu is a PS exclusive, so they should definitely back off until April otherwise it will be competing with another PS exclusive for revenue.... well PS exclusive and one of the most anticipated games of the year.

Craig H Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 KoF is such a niche game that I doubt they're that worried about any competition. They're going to sell that game to their hardcore audience regardless of what it coming out. And I wouldn't be surprised if Horizon or Elden Ring got pushed again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
