What a dramatic take. My friend and I just bought 2 each from Walmart this morning without a hitch.

They're still available as of this comment.

It did kind of remind of the PS5 pre order day that day was chaos. I remember how Wal-Mart jumped the gun and then other retailers started put up their pre orders what a day

There will definitely be plenty, I’m not concerned and I’ll likely get one when the donkey Kong game drops

I pre-ordered bo5h systems and have to say I was extremely lucky to get a ps5 I ordered it and secured it within 20 minutes of it going live in a random morning just after the showcase with no real notice it was going to be made available I didn't see them easily available for 3 years after that point.

The switch 2 for me in Australia I also ordered the morning after the showcase but I didn't have to rush it seems as pre orders have not been exhausted there's plenty available

NE: "There have been some scattered claims going around lately saying that Nintendo is phasing out Diddy Kong, for one reason or another. If you have no idea what we’re talking about, that’s completely understandable."

I argue that simple res/FPS bumps should be free, and then you can charge $10 if it includes actual extra content. That seems to be what has been settled on.

Many PS4 games got free upgrades for PS5 when just increasing res/FPS. Days Gone, for example, got a free FPS bump to start the generation. Now it's getting a "remaster", improved visuals/extra modes/content for $10.

I know they have *some* free upgrades - though we don't know what they entail - but the Zelda games just seem like they know they can get money from eager new buyers, so why not. Zelda Notes doesn't quite seem to justify $10, but hey, let us choose. Make it a $10 app, and give the res/FPS upgrades for free.

Weird the Jamboree pack being 20 with no new boards or minigames for party mode, way to miss the mark. Minigame variety is seriously lacking for the party mode compared to superstars, my biggest issue with the game, think I'll pass on that.

I wonder if there will be supply issues (unable to find the system). Interesting that they are launching in the middle of the year as well.

the new Raidou game from atlus eont allow it either.
but will allow upgrading on ps4 to ps5 for free

ZeekQuattro1d 5h ago

I means it's the same company that makes you buy gold versions of games if you want the new content so it checks out.

It also means you have to buy a game key card if you want a physical copy, screwed over either way.

NotoriousWhiz13h ago

Fake physical. I'd be curious how many opt for that over just buying the digital copy.

Eonjay10h ago

You also have to rebuy any DLC.

GAMERJET8h ago

It's time to wake up. Don't support this practice or the price of the games on Switch 2.

Profchaos5h ago

I don't know what Sega is thinking here especially when they already offer the upgrade free on PlayStation and Xbox for the same game
