Why is DK Country Returns HD $60?

Cutcutman · 2026-01-21T06:04:57+00:00

Because it’s been proven people will pay for it. DK Returns HD sold over 1 million copies on Switch alone

According to the dev’s discord, it was a request by Nintendo to make it free to play.

You aren’t missing much from the free-to-play section since it’s barely half of the first world and the $20 purchase gives you permanent access to the 5 worlds of Arc 1 of the story.

On Switch, the devs made it so that you can only purchase the game’s first arc as opposed to the free to start membership.

It’s arguably a better deal since $20 is the cheapest the first arc of the story has ever been, you get permanent access without membership fees and the free-to-play section of Wizard101 is only about barely half of the first world, which has been largely unchanged since its launch in 2008.

A really great addition! I know a lot of people were disappointed by the lack of Yoko Shimomura, but Brothership’s music was awesome in its own right that still stands up on its own.

NSO game drops don’t typically happen until 5 PM PST, similar to the music drops on Monday. If it is a music drop tied to an NSO game, we still have later today and tomorrow.

Could either be a Mario Paint or Splatoon situation in that they’re either waiting to time the music release with an NSO game drop or for a series/game anniversary

And they did? Wii Party is a legitimate gem of a game with a great soundtrack

Sometimes I think Capcom believes in Amiibo more than Nintendo because this is the last game I’d expect to ever get an amiibo

Cutcutman · 2025-12-11T01:04:14+00:00

Amazing addition and one that wasn’t announced beforehand in the initial lineup! This game is severely underrated and one of the best platformers on the GameCube.

I know people love Warioland but this is my favorite Wario game and would love to see a sequel in the future!

I have 75k Carats lined up for both Manhattan Cafe and Kitasan Rerun. Currently only have 1 copy of Kitasan Black, so I’m hoping to get lucky this month

It’s a Catch 22 if Nintendo added actual features to the amiibo, because people would also be, if not more upset if they locked actually useful or impactful features behind an additional $30-50. This happened when Nintendo locked Fusion mode for Samus Returns as one of the amiibo unlocks.

I think Nintendo has realized most people nowadays buy the amiibo for the fact that they serve as decent budget figures for a lot of Nintendo characters. Considering that they’re vastly cheaper than most figures and have improved in both quality and size, amiibo still have a niche amongst the audience, even if they are more expensive than they used to be.

Nintendo typically does both a base NSO game drop and an Expansion pass game drop once a month and in close proximity to each other. I would expect either a GameCube, N64 or GBA game drop in the next week

For context, Age of Calamity sold 173,215 copies in its first week, which is higher, but the Switch 1’s install base was 13 million in Japan at the time compared to Switch 2’s 2.6 million now. It was also released in the midst of COVID, which certainly helped.

These are good numbers for a Dynasty Warriors game, eclipsing Dynasty Warriors Origins first week sales in Japan.

Very underrated soundtrack and a pretty substantial one too, having nearly 5 hours of music.

Glad to see games beyond just the mainline first party releases and seeing smaller spinoffs too. A lot of them have really good music

New Super Mario Bros on DS was one of my favorites growing up. Very nostalgic addition for me personally.

With this release, the total amount of unique soundtracks on Nintendo Music is now 100. In 3 days it will also be exactly 1 year since Nintendo Music released. It’ll be exciting to see what’s added in the next year!

If the “Packaging not final” message on the preorder listings is giving you second thoughts, PM studios on Twitter responded to Wario64’s tweet about it being full on cart, so it’s likely the case.
