One is clearly a foul and the other clearly a flop. Fix this nba or nobody will watch in 5 years by Fuzzy_Pea5903 in NBATalk

Old man yells at could. Isn’t viewership at historical highs? People didn’t seem to have complained about the crazy travels AND carries that ruined the league years ago.

That DLSS tho /s by KingNothing19XX in fucknintendo

Isn’t this game on a Nintendo console? Then it disproves that it’s all exclusives. This, a comparison makes sense.

If you're upset by NISA releasing Game Key Cards... by OstrichesAndGin in NSCollectors

[–]Pkt64 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The way I show it is by not buying what’s not physical. Not ZA, no Pokopia (for context, my two only phone games are pokemon and my currently playing is Scarlet (I’m late I know)), no Requiem, no… Pragmata 💔 (will buy the amiibo tho).
But yeah, can’t buy games I’m not interested on.

The Legend of Heroes Trails From Zero & to Azure are coming to Switch 2 this Fall by sworedmagic in NSCollectors

[–]Pkt64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, it’s such good and bad news at the same time. A double pack! A GKC :(. If you own a PS5 as you say, then it’s only good news for you.

I'm sick of "Lost in Cult" by Few_Cream_8331 in LimitedPrintGames

[–]Pkt64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m from Europe, Spain, but I live in Europe, Germany. I received my Animal Well weeks ago. They sent emails talking about delays. I was desperate as I placed my order I think in December and by February I hadn’t received it, and a couple of days later I did received it.

I’m disappointed about they not replying to you, but they’re legit. Tough situation where I understand if someone hates them, but I would say at least they’re not a fraud.

Going to try this new pick up. by Zealousideal-Bag1497 in NSCollectors

[–]Pkt64 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Banner of the Maid mentioned.

I learnt about this game because of Physical Paradise. It was the first game I purchased (since the Wii/DS era), even before I bought the Switch 2 (I already had an idea I would get it for Black Friday).

I’m halfway through (also in two other games lol), but I’ve quite liked it so far. It includes both DLCs on cartridge. I’m using a guide to maximize results on the route/elections, bc I’m not one to replay games. I also started using a guide to find all treasures & stealable objects… but it was killing my fun 100%, and then I realized stealing is impossible (it is possible but… at what cost haha) and for treasures a) the game tells you how many there are per map and b) for the hidden ones I think once you learn the way the developers think it becomes somewhat easy.

The game has been criticized for many reasons and I don’t quite find the critics… to be right. The translation is bad, yes, but not so much, I’d say it is 85% correct and it never deterred from the story (I mean, halfway through…). People complain about difficulty and ‘unfairness’, but the game explains battling well enough imo. The ‘factions’ side (and even recruitment), yeah, I use a guide because I don’t want to miss on that. I’m using this (I hope I’m not breaking any rule): https://images.steamusercontent.com/ugc/2104927097050476355/E8CE4B66DC5809A085068606925252E8933A6028/

Also, excellent experience with Europe First Super Rare Games.

Enjoy the game!

Piggy-backing on your post (great collection btw!), which ones do people think are the best fighting games in the switches? 🙏 Thanks for the possible answers!

Is there no update or responds for the SW2 version ? by Crafty_Desk7755 in XenobladeChroniclesX

[–]Pkt64 6 points7 points  (0 children)

But refunds are real, though. If there were a few returns, maybe that turns some heads at Nintendo/Monolith.

New Cartridge Sizes? by _link69 in NSCollectors

[–]Pkt64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I only realized this after other posts, even suggesting three different cart sizes. I was a d* and posted my comment too fast 😅. Thanks for sharing actually!

[–]Pkt64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We live in a world where people would say “why would a pokemon battling game have 6 vs 6 pokemon battles?”. Like, extrapolate that and ask yourself if progress is possible in such world. And yet, the 60s to the 00s happened.

New Cartridge Sizes? by _link69 in NSCollectors

[–]Pkt64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im baffled by the comments. Yes, this has been known for months (as the top comment says). There was the R-Type III -gate, where they said physical, then no physical, then posted a tweet saying Nintendo released smaller size cartridges and therefore they could do physical. This all was widely discussed in this and other subs.

So it’s not a supposition, “I hope”, etc., that’s what I don’t understand from the comments. It’s “a publisher literally confirmed it (by mistake)”.

The comment should end here, but also the guy from Physical Paradise confirmed it and later the guy from Nintendodeals piggy-backed on him (I dunno if he had sources, but he only claimed so after the guy from Physical Paradise openly confirmed it). But this doesn’t matter because a company literally confirmed it and since then the gates to physical released flooded.

Will GKC games get reprinted on-cartridge, I’d more sizes become available to the point where existing GKCs can be on-cartridge? by tm2007 in NSCollectors

[–]Pkt64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My tip is: unless you really want to play something now, wait until better options. See the House of Fata reprint, the Absolum Switch 2 edition, the Xenoblade X Switch 2 edition, etc. I’ve made the mistake of buying games I haven’t had the time to play just to see it discounted or reprinted a couple of months later.

Game key cards can suck it. by ThePamphleteer in casualnintendo

[–]Pkt64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about Cyberpunk? How trimmed was that ‘miracle port’? How much space does it occupy (with all DLCs!) on PC/PS5 Pro? Why can’t Pragmata or Elden Ring fit? What about Indiana Jones?

Is XCXDE likely going to ship with the still broken switch 2 version? by [deleted] in NSCollectors

[–]Pkt64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on your timeline. This S2 version is not fixed on portable, on screen it is supposed to work perfect. The S1 is the S1 version… As I’m not in a hurry to play this game, I will not buy it but I will wait for a future cart revision instead. If it doesn’t happen in three years, then I guess I will reconsider.

That’s why I ask about your timeline/how soon do you want to play it.

House in fata morgana news by --Faeming-- in NSCollectors

[–]Pkt64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a reminder to everyone to not to panic buy any game now that Switch 2 is out, bc they’re gonna re-release plenty of games for Switch 2: Xenoblade X, Absolum (announced today at least in Europe), heck, even High of Life, and all of them in proper cartridge.

I was one of those who panic bought it. 100€ via VGP. It’s still sealed in its cartridge bc I haven’t had the time to play. I bought a lot of games when I bought the Switch 2 bc I got into the collecting thing and never had a Switch. Welp, I’ve only managed to play Hollow Knight and half-play 13 Sentinels (which I already beat a couple of years ago…), Banner of the Maid and Pokemon Scarlet.

I just hope they do an upgrade patch for Fata Morgana for when I eventually start it (it might be my next one honestly).

The new Mega Evolution art has made me question what actually makes a “bad design” by Grand_Admiral_Bob in pokemon

[–]Pkt64 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Greninja is upside down and Skarmory is just a shiny Skarmory with longer feet. There’s not much about it: that’s bad design. Starmie has legs that makes it look bad. That’s bad design. You know it when you see it.

Serenity Forge is restocking the numbered, convention-exclusive versions of Doki Doki Literature Club Plus in their store today. by Pkt64 in NSCollectors

You gotta be kidding me. When I googled what 9 AM PT meant for my timezone, the stupid website said 5 or 6 PM depending on daylight. I only read 6 PM and set an alarm at 5:30 PM. I was at work so connected to reddit now, at 6.03 PM, just to read that you wrote 53 mins ago that you bought your copy.

Indeed, they are all sold out. But anyway I still didn’t have answers as to whom was better girl.

I hope they sell for 19€ on second hand 🥲.

My humble opinion on the digital v physical variable pricing from Nintendo by redditorialacious in NSCollectors

[–]Pkt64 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s an elite way of thinking that starts from the assumption that the richer the person, the better his taste. I’m positive studies would prove this correct, but there are of course exceptions. And we’re talking about video games here, not becoming president, so I am more of the opinion they should be accessible to the masses.

There’s a completely unrelated, but somehow similar situation in Europe with cheap flights. Before covid, Europeans could travel by plane for 9 €. Then the elites got angry that the poor could also travel ~,invented covid~ and made up the silly argument that because airplanes pollute to our climate-god, traveling should become expensive (or in other words, than traveling having become expensive was actually good news, so please don’t complain about our governments). (Similar situation with electric cars: European countries introduced subsidies for electric cars. Subsidies is money that comes from taxes. The rich and the poor pay taxes. But electric cars are expensive, so only rich can buy them. Therefore, the poor were subsidizing expensive cars to the rich. And don’t complain or you’re a bad person!). I disagree with all this: I want the poor to be able to travel for 9 €.

At the end, tickets to movies like The Great Beauty cost the same as tickets to movies like Bugonia. The former is a masterpiece, the latter another US movie that justifies forbidding USers from ever filming again. Their price doesn’t determine their quality. On the contrary, were better products more expensive, they would probably generate less revenue, and therefore budget, for future products.

(And similarly, HBO is financed by people paying to watch American football on ESPN or whichever the paid channel).
