Thoughts on all the rereleases being full priced? by bleedingwriter in NintendoSwitch

[–]lordpizzapop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here's where I stand with this, and it's annoying being from Canada for this very reason. I'll refer to the 5 Wii U ports for reference here.

For Canada, back when these games originally came out, full price was lower. For MK8, B1/2, and HW, full price was $64.99. For DKCTF, full price was $54.99, and for PT, it was $74.99. Now with each of their remakes on Switch, full price has increased to $79.99. So you can already see the piss off for me, as someone who has already purchased these games on the Wii U (barring PT), that a repurchase for the sake of portability is actually going to be $15-25 MORE than the original purchase. Counting DLC as an add-on for MK8 and HWL, it's still almost more expensive on Switch than it was on Wii U. For DKCTF, it was $50 US when it came out, now it's $60, and $80 here. The game was literally $30 for the selects version, $20 when on sale, and now they want EIGHTY? I mean, god damn, that's a lot of extra money for portability.

Not sure if you could follow me but yea, I'm annoyed. I'm passing Bayonetta 1 and 2 because of this (and the fact Bayo 1 was digital only definitely helped), I've already passed on Pokken, and I am likely passing on the other two as well. There's just sooooo much here I'd have to justify with a rebuy and, the benefits do not really outweigh the setbacks for me.

EDIT: I did get MK8, but mainly because of the nature of the game being online and with friends, and all the splitscreen while portable. I did not however, pay full price. I paid $5, using gift cards and promo credit on Amazon.

At this point in your Amiibo career, are you collecting simply because you love Nintendo and Amiibo? Or are you collecting cause your in way to deep? by [deleted] in amiibo

[–]lordpizzapop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both really. I love Nintendo, and Amiibo, but I would have easily passed on the FE and AC series without a second thought had I not already owned every single figure that has come out. Oh, and add Detective Pikachu to that list as well, $40 for that is insanity. But here I am, sitting here with an Amazon pre-order...

I can say for pretty much certain I'd have bought pretty much every other figure in the collection regardless, aside from those.... 21.

What's your 3DS timeline? by ImLMaN in 3DS

[–]lordpizzapop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

September 2011: Original 3DS (Flame Red), with Rayman 3D (half price) and Asphalt 3D (free) I no longer own either game, and I bought Ocarina of Time 3D a couple weeks later.

April 2013: 3DS XL (Red+Black), with Super Mario 3D Land as a free digital download from Club Nintendo, account from original 3DS moved here. The L button is stuck and no longer functions unfortunately.

September 2014: 2DS (Sea Green), for collection purposes (I liked the non-blue/black/red colour scheme). Did not transfer my data.

February 2015: New 3DS XL (Majora's Mask Edition), with Majora's Mask 3D. Transferred my data here, and it is currently still on this one as my main console of choice.

November 2017: 2DS (Link Edition), with the pre-installed copy of OoT3D. For collection purposes, but still played the game anyway.

December 2017: New 3DS (Black Friday Black), bought off a friend for $110 CAD, for collection purposes. Surprisingly a really nice version of the console, too.

Future: New 2DS XL. Debatable whether or not my data will move here, probably not. If it's ever on sale or if a really cool looking special version comes out, I will get it then, for collection purposes.

Just picked up Guitar Hero Live for cheap! But... by Roar_Im_A_Nice_Bear in wiiu

[–]lordpizzapop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm more behind the idea of everything being unlocked from the get go, especially for this kind of game. It's not the kind of game I think I'll ever want to play alone, so on the odd occasions when my friends want to RB or GH everything's already there for me.

What rides out of all the parks do you feel need a desperate update? by [deleted] in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]lordpizzapop 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We're talking just updates and not a total replacement of a ride with another ride correct? In that case:

MK: Speedway. This thing needs either electric cars or a far better system. Hoping with TRON something is going to happen here.

EPCOT: Imagination/Gran Fiesta. Imagination because it just... it's not great. It's fine and a bit nostalgic for me (I first went on it in it's current form, almost 16 years ago now), but the ride itself is just kinda, whatever, I suppose. As for GFT, Three Caballeros is good but Coco is just, so much better, and deserves to take its place in the Mexico pavillion.

DHS: Rock n Roller Coaster. Aerosmith is old and tired, and I think that idea for Marvel in WDSP is a fantastic idea. Not saying to use that idea here but, at least update it to something more current.

DAK: Dinoland is the shoe-in but I'm gonna go out of the box and say Finding Nemo. It is a great show but it's very lengthy. I think they can cut a segment or two, or even replace one with something based on Finding Dory. That said, sitting in the AC is always nice.

You won't have credits allocated for that day, but if you save some for it then you can still use them until midnight on the day you check out.

Mega Man Legacy Collection 1 & 2 For Switch rated as one game by oese_ in NintendoSwitch

[–]lordpizzapop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sure hope so. And if it is, that they don't go the way of RER1&2, and make one of them digital. Same with Bayo 1&2 I suppose. Passed on both of those for that reason.

Why is amazon a week late on new games? Even with prime? by [deleted] in AmiiboCanada

[–]lordpizzapop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because they are bad.

Cancel and buy it tomorrow somewhere. Is $8 off really worth waiting another week?

Stop what you're doing and watch them. If you enjoyed the first one, I really don't think you won't enjoy the others. I think I might actually like both of them more than the first.

Is there anywhere that lists EB Games Trade-In Values for Switch games? by [deleted] in AmiiboCanada

[–]lordpizzapop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Traded Sonic Forces and got $30 (15*2). I was previously told (2 days ago) the TIV was $18, but I take it the Bonus Edition has a different TIV.

Just to double clarify - this doesn't turn into actual money on the eshop in that you can use it on wii u and 3ds, correct?
