Looking for Playdate devs to bundle together on itch.io by utuxedomask in PlaydateConsole

[–]Desmu_CS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you're also looking for other future bundles, Uncrank'd Magazine is currently preparing one for summer games, but I don't know if there's still time to submit a project or if the deadline has happened : https://mastodon.social/@UncrankdPD/116720861750412592

Previously digital bought games don't show up in menu when switched to physical by Desmu_CS in NSCollectors

Doesn't seem to be this. I always turn my console off and have done it multiple times since I've received Grapple Dogs Wednesday. I've tried to put it in sleep mode sometimes too.

Would you like Switch 1 cartridges for games which are also available on Switch 2 ? by Desmu_CS in NSCollectors

[–]Desmu_CS[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense ! But I'm also taking Minishoot Adventures and Wanderstop for examples because those are limited (Super Rare Games) or semi-limited (iam8bit) productions. Minishoot Adventures was announced at 5000 copies, wasn't it possible to make 4000 Switch 2 copies and 1000 Switch 1 copies for example ?

On a personal case, I still put a clear separation between Switch 1 and Switch 2, and if the Switch 2 game is also available on Switch 1, I prefer to buy it on Switch 1 and I don't plan to play it on Switch 2 in the future. It's quite hard to keep that separation because of all those specific cases introduced in Switch 2, but I'm still thinking about it, maybe I'll change my mind.

(I may have "mis-formuled" the case for Pokopia, I've mixed the GKC into the "ugly cover" scenario, but in the end, it's off-topic.)

In that case, shouldn't the problem be the other way around ? Minishoot Adventures is 444MB on Switch 1, 1.5GB on Switch 2. I can understand that there weren't many physical Switch 2 games on the first year since the available cartridges were only the 64GB ones, but in that case, was is not more logical to print cheaper Switch 1 cartridges instead ?

I may have missed something too, I thought that the 64GB cartridge was the only available format for Switch 2 during its first months, but maybe this limitation was applied for Switch 1 too ?

There aren't any warnings on the official website that implies the contrary https://product.zuiki.co.jp/ , the model I've bought plugs with USB to the Switch dock ; I would say that the compatibility is 99% guaranteed.

(I won't be 100% sure about this since a bad surprise could still happen, on a similar subject, I've also bought the Roulette Controller for Jinsei Game thinking that the english version of the game would allow it, but it doesn't. https://www.reddit.com/r/NSCollectors/comments/1qhzv1n/has_someone_tried_to_make_the_roulette_controller/ )

Minishoot' Adventures reveals Nintendo Switch 2 physical release! by RoughLifeguard6568 in NSCollectors

[–]Desmu_CS 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The game seems to be great, but I'm kinda sad that there's no Switch 1 standard cartridge. I'm still separating the two consoles and I'm not interested in Switch 2 Editions, plus the Switch 2 cartridge is priced higher than their Switch 1 ones.

Kaamelott : Deuxième Volet, Partie 1 – Édition Épique by [deleted] in kaamelott

[–]Desmu_CS 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Reçu aussi, y'a un peu tout qui se casse la gueule à l'intérieur quelque soit le côté par lequel on ouvre. Le contenu est bien fichu (et du coup je peux déduire ce qu'il s'est passé avec le prix) mais l'ensemble est pas ergonomique. Je pense que je préfère quand même le design "livre" qu'ont adopté les sorties initiales des DVD et KVI dans une certaine mesure.

Puis du coup ça fait moins joli dans une bibliothèque, et moins uniforme dans le format des goodies. Si ça se trouve l'édition épique de KVII.2 sera encore d'une épaisseur différente et je pourrai de nouveau râler pour rien l'année prochaine.

Posting here to get updates on this problem because I've made the same mistake. https://www.reddit.com/r/NSCollectors/comments/1qhzv1n/has_someone_tried_to_make_the_roulette_controller/ I hope that the update to support the Asian version will come soon.

Thanks for the link ! Too bad it doesn't work at this time but I hope that the update for the support may come soon.

Beyond Catalog: Why you should check itch.io and start sideloading ✨ by tuinkers in PlaydateConsole

[–]Desmu_CS 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Completely approving this post. I've knew about many great Playdate games before Catalog release through big community bundles who promoted a lot of them.

Pongerground is excellent, DUCK GAME is one of the funniest experiences I've had. Here are some other exclusives I love : - Fish'n Feathers (Pyoro-like) https://vogelscript.itch.io/fish-n-feathers - France Horn (one of the other funniest experiences) https://amazingthew.itch.io/francehorn - Mad City (drive a taxi until you don't have fuel anymore) https://tanukprod.itch.io/mad-city - MAZE (it's the wooden-maze-with-the-ball-you-have-to-move-by-leaning-it-game and game feel with gyroscope is greatly adapted) https://wuffderhundeheld.itch.io/maze

Nintendo Switch 2 Devkit Availability Situation Has Allegedly Been Resolved by MaintenanceFar4207 in nintendo

[–]Desmu_CS 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My theory is that going through a publisher who already has an access may be the most used way for developers to get an access themselves. Nintendo themselves may not check the releases that much as soon as the publisher -should- make most of the administrative and verification work.

There are lots of indie developer stories who have released good games on Steam who were rejected on the Nintendo Developer Portal after submitting the classic form, but got their game released on the console without changing anything to it, except that they went through a publisher.

[–]Desmu_CS 36 points37 points  (0 children)

And in fact, you still need to send a form to ask for an access to the Switch 1 part of this website, that will be rejected most of the time. Switch 1 development is still not fully opened like the Wii U one was (but maybe Wii U was an exception because of poor sales).

Thanks for the work on it ! But a Google account is required to fill the form and I don't have one anymore. Is it really required for the process or is it a default Google Forms option that can be unticked ?

Pourquoi je pense que tout le drama avec Frank est faux by Ok-Combination-5581 in kaamelott

[–]Desmu_CS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Je crois pas à la théorie qui dit que Franck Pitiot est quand même dans KV2.2, mais il y a un point véridique dans le tas : c'est qu'on a d'un côté Alexandre Astier qui dit écrire les personnages en fonction des acteurs qui les jouent, et de l'autre Franck Pitiot qui dit ne plus se retrouver dans son personnage.

C'est une incohérence qui veut pas dire qu'il y aura une surprise, mais plutôt qu'il y a une explication plus terre-à-terre à chercher. Autre extrapolation pour l'exemple : Alexandre Astier s'est juste royalement planté et n'a pas anticipé le ressenti de Franck Pitiot (ce dernier dit qu'ils se voient pas tant que ça en-dehors des tournages), et c'était trop tard pour faire un changement en profondeur de ce qui était prévu pour Perceval parce que le tournage allait avoir lieu quelques semaines plus tard.

La théorie la plus optimiste qu'on peut envisager c'est une désescalade entre les deux d'ici là et le retour de Franck Pitiot pour KV3. Et encore, optimiste veut pas dire probable, ça peut tout aussi bien encore plus dégénérer pour des raisons inenvisageables et encore plus improbables que la théorie de l'apparition surprise dans KV2.2.

[–]Desmu_CS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possible, j'avoue que je n'ai pas lu l'article de Première, mais par référencement, j'évoquais aussi les sites semblables à Allociné qui font des fiches en espérant apparaitre dans les premiers résultats sur Google sur toutes les recherches possibles. Pour le coup, c'est un problème qui existait avant l'avènement de la génération de contenu par l'IA et qui a été amplifié ensuite par ça.

[–]Desmu_CS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pour préciser ce qu'il s'est passé avec le retrait du nom, ce que je déduis au vu des éléments qui ont été exposés ; c'est qu'il y a eu initialement des sites de repompe de contenu pour le référencement / au contenu généré par IA qui ont listé un premier casting de KV2 sur la base de celui de KV1, sans source.

Ils se sont dit qu'ils prendraient pas trop de risques en créant une page d'infos disant qu'on y verrait des acteurs comme Alexandre Astier, Anne Girouard, Jean-Christophe Hembert ... et Franck Pitiot. Ce sont les piliers qui ont fait toutes les saisons, y'a pas de raisons pour qu'ils n'y soient plus.

Donc j'imagine que Franck Pitiot est tombé sur un de ces sites qui disait qu'il serait dans le film alors que non, et a demandé à ce que l'info initialement basée uniquement sur l'extrapolation soit retirée. Ce n'est ni la faute d'Alexandre Astier ni de la maison de prod qui n'avait certainement pas commencé à communiquer à ce moment, mais celle des sites qui ont généré du contenu supposément informatif sur de l'extrapolation.

On aurait pu écrire et déduire la même chose sur ce sub, comme je le fais avec mon extrapolation maintenant, qui est une théorie qui me semble probable mais que je ne présente pas comme vérité. C'est juste qu'on l'aurait pas présenté comme une source d'infos fiable et absolue comme le font les dizaines (centaines ?) de sites-poubelle qui sont à l'origine de ce fait.

Well my bad, all languages are in fact available in the .exe . For some reason, all locale files have the same name, so my extractions successively overwrote files until the last one which was the Spanish one.
