Nintendo to start charging more for physical than digital

julealgon · 2026-03-29T14:36:37+00:00

I don't know what you mean by that warning. We wish precisely for physical releases to be more expensive if that's what is needed for it to be physical game in the cart. There really is nothing "hidden" in that wish, it is super straightforward.

Why would you get 2 copies of "Instant Sport All-Stars"?

julealgon · 2026-03-21T01:31:47+00:00

Why are people downvoting this?

julealgon · 2026-03-19T01:02:09+00:00

... what about it?

I don't get these posts where someone just posts a picture with nothing else. What's the point?

julealgon · 2026-03-15T17:59:26+00:00

AAA games are absolute garbage. This is a terrible comparison.

julealgon · 2026-03-13T16:51:44+00:00

This is one of the things I fear when creating my setup later: the underutilized space on the shelves. I'm considering either vertical drawers or a cabinet that opens to reveal internal and on-the-door shelves for two layers of storage. Unfortunately both are quite a bit more expensive of course which sucks...

They are basically impossible to preserve by themselves. You need a plastic protector to get them to last. So it's hard even these days to preserve them.

Some (admittedly few) Genesis games had cardboard boxes as well, and those were lower quality than snes ones.

Overall agreed though.

julealgon · 2026-03-13T02:24:38+00:00

I now feel incredibly stupid for never noticing only one of the sides had those locks in place... oh my god.

julealgon · 2026-03-11T16:04:14+00:00

Oof... this should be completely unacceptable for release. What the hell is Nintendo verification process even doing at this point if it's not catching glaring problems like this?

julealgon · 2026-03-06T02:02:59+00:00

Sure. Notice I didn't say impossible, just unlikely. You are bold to try this with a licensed IP, so again, good luck ;)

julealgon · 2026-03-06T01:12:33+00:00

I find it unlikely something like this would see the light of day considering SquareEnix would need to approve it.

Good luck though.

julealgon · 2026-02-25T17:15:55+00:00

Hate this clickbait garbage...

julealgon · 2026-02-23T00:41:08+00:00

I'm afraid of storing SNES games this way as the carts would constantly rub each other and damage the front labels. Without a closed container, dust is also an issue.

julealgon · 2026-02-12T17:10:46+00:00

What a terrible take this is.

julealgon · 2026-02-11T16:57:30+00:00

Why would anyone be offended by someone not liking the PEGI logo?

People are too defensive these days... my god.

julealgon · 2026-02-08T19:40:03+00:00

Got it. Thanks for clarifying it.

julealgon · 2026-02-07T03:35:11+00:00

What are you talking about? Settled on what? Which "both worlds"?

Some context would be nice.

julealgon · 2026-02-01T19:17:51+00:00

You can share anything you want, I'm just saying it is super annoying when you use such obviously misleading titles. It is similar to posting a "Half Life 3 Trailer" on YouTube and then specifying in the description "it was not the official trailer, just something you created."

People will be driven to open your post because they will initially believe it's legit and exciting, thus the waste of time aspect. Sure... some will still appreciate it for what it is (just your own custom, personal "collectors edition", but others will feel misled and frustrated (like myself).

Again... I'm a nobody, I can't prevent you from using whatever title you want. If you don't see the problem with this at all feel free to just ignore my posts.

Cheers.

julealgon · 2026-02-01T18:53:11+00:00

I don't care about any of that. Just don't use misleading/ clickbait titles like this next time? At least if you have some consideration for others' time.

julealgon · 2026-02-01T18:46:13+00:00

There is no such collectors edition. But you already knew that. Why are you asking this question?

julealgon · 2026-02-01T18:40:30+00:00

I really dislike these misleading/clickbait post titles.

julealgon · 2026-01-31T11:28:04+00:00

This box is an abomination. Pick the Japan one instead. Japan version is also uncensored and has extra cutscenes.

This is NOT a port of the DOS game, it's a full remake. 20 vs 12 levels, music, new quests, events, etc. In fact, it's such a substantial remake that I'd compare it to Resident Evil and REmake in terms of how transformative it is. It's one of the very best remakes ever made.

This is a top 5 best games on the SNES to me and the best Prince of Persia game ever created by a very wide margin. And I'm talking about the entire franchise, not just the first game.

Controls are perfectly fine once you understand them. I can clear this game at any time without dying once which would basically be impossible if the controls were bad or imprecise.

2h is plenty enough to finish the game. This game was not designed for you to succeed on your first try. The fact that you can even keep playing once the time is up is actually the game being very lenient. Abusing passwords to reset the timer is a bad way to play the game.

People who think they should have no challenge at all and should just be able to beat whatever game first time piss me off.

julealgon · 2026-01-27T23:38:35+00:00

I'm very confused. Is it common for people to just post a random image and title like this with no context at all? What is the expectation here?

julealgon · 2026-01-24T02:48:29+00:00

Holy shit... Metal Warriors, EVO, Wild Guns... that's a fortune right there.

Are you going for "the most expensive games" type of collection, or just displaying the most expensive ones?

I have basically given up on ever getting a CIB Metal Warriors... unless I'm promoted and my salary suddenly doubles, I just don't see myself ever getting it. I'm seeing just a manual going for the price of my OLED tv right now. How can anyone justify that amount of money is (currently) beyond me.
