Welp I was too weak I placed an order.

Ah well with going out anywhere out of the question, it's the only entertainment available right now anyway.  :'(

[Bebpo]

The European one looks pretty good and I feel like I should just complete the set before the world ends

Feeling jelly of everyone who hasn't played this getting to play the probably superior version for the first time.

Love the game, but no way I'm replaying an 80 hour+ game. Will youtube the new epilogue chapter.

You can play the epilogue from the get go, but yeah up to you if that's worth $60.

[demi]

The epilogue is just Shulk kicking a blitzball and blowing himself up

The US CE is not up on Amazon for whatever reason unless I missed it.

[Sho Nuff]

Where is my SMT5 on Switch

[Beezy]

It was up earlier. I preordered it and then cancelled once I realized that it was just an artbook.

[Joe Molotov]

Where is my SMT5 on Switch

Cancelled due to corona.




j/k! It's cancelled due to no one gives af about SMT.

[Cheddahz]

very curious to check out night trap and double switch for three bucks each (even if it's just for the novelty)

[Himu]

Where is my SMT5 on Switch

Kaneko designs in hd

[Rahxephon91]

Don't know why I bought this, but I did.



I like how it feels in my hands compared to the regular one.

Sold out everywhere, but the shitty Meijers here had plenty.

That's neat, but expecting the epilogue to be some generic filler that they add in all these DLCs for rpgs like Tales or even XB2. If it's some major xeno-lore heavy shit I'd pay $60 for it. Will let other people play it and describe it first.

Is that the OST on Vinyl? I'd buy that for my vinyl collection.

[CatsCatsCats]

Why is any of that included in a patch? Sounds to me like that should have been included at launch. Fuck I hate this culture of shipping unfinished products.

It's beyond unfinished. Fans criticized the actual port for ages and they still released a half assed Panzer game.

Am wondering if they rushed it out to have it be the big surprise Direct game.  They definitely should have waited longer.

Can I blame Nintendo?  I blame Nintendo... Not Sega... CONSOLE WHARZZZ FO LIFEEEE!!!

They just wanted everyone to relive the true sega saturn experience

Has anyone heard of this game? Reviews are good and it's on sale on the eshop for 99 cents right now so I have to get it:

[CatsCatsCats]

99c? I’m in

[Beezy]

Let's try the multiplayer one day or even later today if you can.

[Akala]

Snagged both Katamari Reroll and Lumines Remastered to get me through the week. 

[Nintex]

I will never use this feature from hell

[CatsCatsCats]

Kinda cool, could switch it to Xbox layout and then I wouldn’t have that weird menu mix up shit I get when going back and forth

[Occam]

https://twitter.com/Wario64/status/1249852572061413377

Of course the feature that matters most is missing: Copying/moving saves to SD so you can create a backup.

[Tasty]

Gotta buy Nintendo Online for those cloud saves breh

Change the Xbox shit to be like Nintendo instead

This Cooking Mama Cookstar drama is kind of interesting.  Despite legal action and being pulled from digital storefronts, it's still being sold on the company's website and some other sites that have stock.

[CatsCatsCats]

What’s the drama about the cooking game?

[nachobro]

a dev/pub named planet entertainment was licensed cooking mama by the original devs. original dev was not satisfied with the quality of the game and told planet to delay it to fix the issues they had with it. planet ignored them and decided to just release it anyway. original dev got nintendo to pull the game from the eshop and (most) physical releases and is now going to sue planet and revoke the license from them.

in the middle of this happening someone screenshotted an "insider" discord post that claimed it had a bitcoin miner in it and that's why it was pulled. somehow lots of people believed that even though it's pretty stupid and was proven wrong almost right away.

[Tasty]

Oh hey one of my favorite recent channels just posted this a few hours ago

[Beezy]

It's back up on amazon now. Not sure how long it'll last.

Also read that it's not "optimized" and may overheat the console.  No idea if that's true.

I decided to try ordering a copy from their site.  The order went through, but I'm half-expecting them to cancel it.  If it ships, I'm just gonna keep it sealed as an oddity or sell it off if the resale prices stay high.  I bet there's still more copies of this being shipped than your typical "limited run" title, so probably doubtful.

[nachobro]

yeah i tried ordering a copy from an aussie retailer for the same reason and it got cancelled :'(

You can get it directly from the company's website for $40: https://shop.cookingmamacookstar.com/   EDIT: Sold out, although it could come back in stock.

Play-Asia says they're getting it in within a few days:

By the way, Ring Fit Adventure is selling for stupid money at the moment.
The thirst for some fitness during the lockdown is real. It's out of stock everywhere, so ebay/Amazon sellers are having a field day.

[CatsCatsCats]

Just Dance has been rilly fun. And the unlimited pass is free right now for good covid press for Ubisoft

[Beezy]

God Eater 3, Ni No Kuni, and that Digimon collection are all on sale, physical and digital. Should I pass on any of these?

[demi]

I cant comment on the quality of the ports but Ni No Kuni is pretty good if you can tolerate the dummy AI

Digimon games are supposed to be pretty good "traditional" RPGs - havent played it myself

God Eater 3 if you like MonHun games is a no-brainer.

[Ghoul]

Cannot find ring fit adventure anywhere that is a reasonable price. Fucking scalpers bought a ton and then put it on ebay for stupid money.

I just wanna attempt to stay in some form of shape ffs.

[Akala]

there are alternatives karen

Your best bet is to buy a 3rd party controller, and then the game digitally.

This ring controller has excellent quality:

Of course if you order from China, shipping takes 3-6 weeks. Maybe you can find one of them online locally for a decent price.

You can't buy the game from the eShop- it's cart only.   Am assuming they did this because the ring controller is required for the game to work.

[Occam]

But the Japanese version came with a download code! Wtf, Nintendo.
What's the point of selling third party controllers then?

[Ghoul]

second player most likely. It is super frustrating.

DELUXE

I'm cumming and crying at the same time

I'm shameless and I don't care that the game apparently isn't that great.

[Ghoul]

Jump Force fucking sucked though, just give me the DS version and call it a day.

[CatsCatsCats]

Like I just said, just dance is only 20 bucks. There’s a sweat mode, dancing is real good exercise + free unlimited with over 500 songs. foh with that ring
