I was never in EGM for anything (Only Nintendo Power) but I'm happy to see the digital archive starting to come to life, first thing I checked out was my first issue I bought EGM #9 I still have it in my vintage game mag box 35+ years later, I bought it for Castlevania 2 & something named Neo GeoπŸ˜‰πŸ˜

Nintendo as a company is a creature of habit, they tend to do what's best for the business, but stay very conservative Everyone complains every generation that they don't chase Sony/MS technically, however they push innovation with current technology They've followed Gunpei Yokoi ideals

Saw this (multiple screenshots attached) Not sure what mental gymnastics people are doing to come to this point, Nintendo has never willingly sold a system at a loss 3DS - was due to sluggish sales & early price cut Wii U - strong yen & market conditions led to trying to jumpstart system sales

A tale of dueling Nintendo reps...πŸ€”πŸ€¨ Nintendo Prime flexing that HE has the True answer Does it play w/a previous answer from a few days ago which was the TRUTH then Lol, I just love pre-release conjecture, hopefully they officially release the answer so everyone QUITS arguing about who's right😜

Dunno if it's just me but I keep seeing a lot of people just being argumentative for the sake of being so you try and give them thought out points and counter points & they're like... No, & this is my strawman why... So tiring Also tiring, I'm bringing mins, days old posts to rebuke these peopleπŸ˜”

Someone posted this as an example of what prices were in the 90's My response: Canadian pricing? The US and CA dollar weren't equal then or now, so of course there was a massive increase in price between the countries. This second pic is more realistic, but still on the higher end as T'r'U was

Quick thought how can they claim a NSW2 version if they put the Switch 1 game in the box w/a Download Code? Isnt that deceptive marketing?πŸ€”πŸ€¨ Looks like I'm just buying the Switch 1 copies of everything until they don't make them anymore since most of these games arent NSW2 native & physical anyway

This keeps getting better and better the more news that comes out... They need to spend less on lawyers & more on PR people right now methinks

Wipeout has been ported to Dreamcast! www.youtube.com/watch?v=E35K...

Not sure where all of this talk of current gen games NEED to be MORE expensive came from NOW since Nintendo announced the $80 game yesterday Also where did this $100 GTA 6 thing come from??? The reason SNES/Genesis games cost a lot is because carts w/larger ROM sizes were expensive Blu-ray discs

@spawnwave.bsky.social I'm sure Nintendo has plenty of Labo cardboard sitting around to repurpose as mousepads for NSW2 Easy money?πŸ˜‰πŸ˜…

I'm starting to think I'm going to pretend this game doesn't exist, between all of the 'real world' fighters they're adding in to the the KSA influences seeping in, this is not SNK of 20 years ago This is sullying the name of MotW

Nintendo had to RAISE the prices of the NSW2 & games to support all of the frivolous lawsuits they bring against companies and individuals every year Lawyers aren't cheap you know πŸ˜‚πŸ˜œπŸ˜†πŸ˜€πŸ˜‰

Apparently they do possess magic over at CDPR Got one right & one wrong yesterday (yes I admit when I'm wrong) Straight from CDPR, NSW2 version is complete on cart, how...the voodoo boys doing some techno magicπŸ˜… Also, I did mention it wasn't going to run the best & it won't w or w/out DLSS or AI😐

If you missed today's Switch 2 Direct or need a recap of all the announcements, find all 60-plus stories from today (in order!) here: www.gematsu.com/tag/nintendo...

So we know Nintendo NEVER sells their systems at a loss So if the JPN only version is $350, what is the base cost to produce the NSW2? Also let it sink in how much they're overcharging for the worldwide version (guesstimating $100-150 pure profit) Freakin' nutsπŸ€¨πŸ˜”πŸ˜

PSA: Mario Kart World is D/L only with the NSW2 bundle Just look at the sticker on the box SMH, seriously, couldn't put the game in the box huh, at the point, I'm not surprised by anything πŸ˜…πŸ€¨πŸ˜”πŸ˜

RIP Val Kilmer, passed away last night Man today's not shaping up to be very good in general

Even more info on the JPN exclusive system, some winners on this page 1st question literally translates to software outside of JPN is NOT guaranteed to work on your JPN only system aka region locked Yikes, welcome back to the Wii U era More game key info too translate.google.com?sl=ja&tl=en&...
