hmm I remember saying the Switch should cost no more than 150 bucks because of what it really offers(dozens of average games), but with this I can say it should now cost 170 bucks at least, it adds some real value to that thing. :D

The fact that you'd agree with that, proves beyond the shadow of any previous doubt that you aren't the Nintendo fan you've always tried to claim you are.
It's worth the current price tag, and you know it.

_-EDMIX-_2291d ago

@wonder- everybody has different games they like and different reasons for why they purchase a system.

My reasons for wanting a Nintendo switch just happen to be for a game that's not even been announced yet so it makes more sense for me to just wait as opposed to purchase something that won't even be used.

Sooooo for me personally that threshold is about at $200 or slightly at less.

It might be worth full price to you and that's completely fine but to me personally I'm not willing to pay that price and I'm not entirely sure why you have a problem with that.

Uken122291d ago

@_-EDMIX-_

I can agree with you on that. But a system shouldn't be based on how much one person wants certain games. By this logic when PS4 first launched it was highly overpriced. The system launched with no games and its first real game was Bloodborne. Same goes for Xb1.

Saying Switch is only worth the price only if it has games is a fair statement. One I would agree with no matter the system. But Switch has had more high quality games release in it's first year than any other system in a long time. About 15 years.

Saying the Switch is worth $200 or less is stupid. It is a normal price for the hardware.
Shit Xb1X should be $200, it doesn't offer any games or exclusives so it should be $200 or less. See how this works?

neutralgamer19922290d ago

Let's be honest Nintendo consoles tend to be more expensive yet way under powered

and the accessories are more expensive compared to other consoles

Switch is way over priced but I know from part Nintendo will never sell consoles at loss

Trolling and flame-baiting fans of the console. Shame on you.

Old McGroin2291d ago

PS4 AND Xbox fanboys started off by encouraging the success of the Switch as a secondary console to their console of choice but as the Switches popularity has grown at record breaking speed those encouraging comments have turned in to baseless, childish and vomit inducing put downs. It only shows that they see the threat to their consoles dominance is real and how insecure they are about how it's all playing out.

ZombieKiller2291d ago

Sorry but you shouldn't have to hack something to add real value to it. It has real value as it is being a Nintendo console and having the games on it that it has. Don't get me wrong, I love the idea with hacking but that statement is not true in any way. The Nintendo switch is f-----g amazing without hacking

Smokingunz2290d ago

See all those dislikes u got for making an ignorant opinion? More than your likes. I probably enjoy the switch than your favorite console.

MadLad2290d ago

As a PC gamer, the Switch offers a lot of value in what it is, but the PS4, and even more so the Xbox One, are almost irrelevant.

NIntendo/PC master race.

I will double check if this does really work, then I am gonna buy this again, now the great value has come don't get me wrong, but playing FFVI, Pokemons, Retro Mario, DB games and couple of other legendry games is another level of enjoyment along with the new titles, I mean this should be an official release by Nintendo games by selling SNES, GC, N64, GBA and even Wii games on the store, that would hardly beats Ps Now and Xbox Game Pass which will give huge boost in sales as never. I know there is licenses issues but there is alot of firsr party game fans would really love to give it try again officially.

20 Best PS1 RPGs of All Time

Cultured Vultures: Where would the PS1 be without RPGs? It’d no doubt still be a massive seller thanks to bandicoots, clones, and halfpipes, but half the cultural institution it is today? We’re not so sure.

While most of these games are great to amazing, most are not actual RPGs. Faux RPGs if anything. Turn Based Adventure Games for a more apt description, with Diablo, Brave Fence Musashi and Star Ocean as Action Adventure games.

Again, all great games without a doubt.

Not for me, I'm 100% physical media all of the time.

jwillj2k41d 21h ago

I hate that I have to keep calling this out, but your physical disks mean nothing if the game code attempts to connect to a server prior to playing.

Hugodastrevas1d 21h ago

And that happens when? I'm playing completely offline here, stellar Blade to be more precise.
I'm sorry but I've never run into that imaginary problem you're talking about, I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but it has never happened to me.

jwillj2k41d 21h ago

You not running into the problem yet has no bearing on my argument. You’re acting like the medium is the shield for you being able to always play your games when it effectively is not. The game code itself can try to connect to a server or the console you’re playing on may receive an update that requires that game to connect to a server. Just because you haven’t ran into it doesn’t mean anything lol you don’t own your games no matter how you try.

Hugodastrevas1d 20h ago

So I have never run into the problem you're talking about and your answer is an hypothetical? Look I can play any game of my library offline right now without issue.
That issue is in your mouth and alone.

Crows901d 16h ago

Actually...there's an easy way...don't connect. If it doesn't require a connection and you don't connect...the code can't update...obviously....confused why you don't get what he's saying.

outsider16241d 15h ago

Hold on..lets say i dnt have an online connection, can i atleast play the game offline though. Was thinking of getting this

jwillj2k41d 10h ago

None of you use your brains.

OK, let’s explore this playing offline. not talking about Diablo specifically just gaming in general.

Are you going to buy two PlayStations? One offline one online? If not, moment you want to play something that requires a connection you’re cooked.

Does game experience you love so much stay the same offline?

Is the game even playable offline?

The whole point of my argument is that we don’t hold the keys anymore. The gatekeepers are the developers and console makers regardless of whether it’s digital or physical. You altering your play style for a lesser experience is not a workaround, it doesn’t solve the overall problem.

None of this matters since the move to the cloud is inevitable.

So you have to buy the game and can only stream to the PS5 devices using PS plus premium? What is the point of that. Much more useful when you can stream to other devices.

MrNinosan2d ago

Works great on my Portal while at work 👍

spicelicka1d 22h ago

That's streaming off your PS5, not from the cloud. This is specifically referring to cloud gaming.

CrimsonWing692d ago

Can’t you, uh, do this on your phone?

Tacoboto1d 23h ago

Sony doesn't yet have a web or app-based solution to stream games off their cloud service, the closest you may be able to get would be Remote Play if they allow cloud streaming during a Remote session.

And yes this applies to the Portal too.

Einhander19721d 4h ago (Edited 1d 4h ago )

Tacoboto

Please stop talking about PlayStation Streaming, you don't know what you're talking about.

I just explained this to you the other day where you were telling people that remote play was their only cloud solution, because apparently you didn't understand how PlayStation Premium works even though PS Now was a thing since shortly after the launch PS4..

You can stream to PC and Mac, and they had mobile clients for it in the past but probably for the same reason Microsoft is fighting Apple and Google PS Now wasn't allowed on App stores. Which is why it's not on iPhone and Android still.

And to be honest, I am glad they are trying to keep it on the console, all their moves away from the console seem like a step in the wrong direction, which isn't working so great for Microsoft...

anast1d 23h ago

Blizzard is shoving this game everywhere. Diablo 4 is going to take an even bigger hit soon. Path of exile 2 is coming out and it looks insane.

Crows901d 16h ago

Well they're about to release the next season...I think that might be way they're pushing the game again.

anast1d 2h ago

I mean I get what you are saying, but D4 isn't doing that well either.

UnbreakableAlex1d 22h ago (Edited 1d 22h ago )

I completed it on gamepass. Thanks God I dint pay it full price. It plays like a lazy mobile game. I am not a pro diablo gamer (Diablo 1 was the only one I completed) but D4 has no atmosphere, no creepy feeling and soundtrack like the first one and its so easy, I managed to not buy any weapon and had 4 Million Credits on level 55. I always used the same 4 attacks from the beginning and died maybe 10-15 times. It's so easy, wtf. I remember D1 to be pretty hard.
WTF happened? Is Diablo 3 also that bad?

jwillj2k41d 21h ago

Diablo 3 was my first Diablo game. I had to use the mailbox cheats to keep it interesting.

Crows901d 16h ago (Edited 1d 16h ago )

Diablo 3 was really hard at launch....then they made it easy.

They love scaling difficulty though.

anast1d 2h ago

D2 is the pinnacle. I still fire it up from time to time.

GrmpyolGamer 1d 13h ago

Considering that the PS cloud steaming is garbage compared to XCloud and is limited to certain devices this isn't something to brag about. Wake me up when Diablo is on PS plus

Lots of fond memories with the Gameboy. It was my first portable console. It's also the last system my parents played as games were getting too advanced for them outside of pinball, Mario and classic Donkey Kong games. 🤣

Cacabunga3d ago

I never had one but some school friends did.
I still remember the magical feeling of playing motocross and mario bros 2 (i think).. gaming addiction since that very moment

victorMaje3d ago

I’ll never forget opening that Christmas gift. I was ill, had a fever, and was screaming with Joy :)

Profchaos2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

I still have my original GB that I opened up on Christmas morning way back and donkey Kong game it came with.

Still works to I recently picked up a ever drive for a decent price and have been rediscovering some of my all time favourite games like Pokemon, super Mario land 2 and links awakening.

Amazing little system with interesting development and release story.

The story of how Tetris came to be a pack in has been turned into a movie it's that interesting
