CitizenVectron Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Man, I remember paying $100+ for SNES games back in the early-90s. Converting that to today's dollars: $180 Canadian $134 American That probably explains why we only had 4-5 games for that console. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don’t know that they would, because they don’t really have to. They’re still charging $60 for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and that’s sold over 52 million units. Even the Pokemon games maintain their price. Sword and Shield is still $60 and that’s sold over 25 million units, and I assume sales have tapered off dramatically. Pokémon, if no other major Nintendo franchise should get discounted. No other Nintendo franchise devalues previous entries by having new entries released so frequently. Nintendo can charge $60 for their games because there’s just 1 on the platform and they’re practically essential playing. But with Pokemon, I don’t know how many new players would jump in to Scarlet/Saphire and then purchase their way backwards in the series at $60 a pop when a new game comes out every year.

It should definitely be a thing, even if it’s online only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 I'm not getting ToK, but even if I had been, the second I found out breakable weapons were in the game I would no longer be getting it. Won't get another Zelda as long as that system remains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The value per hour of enjoyment is pretty unrivaled for me, even on the rare occasion I buy at $60-$70. Excuse me sir, but there’s no need for name calling. I prefer to be called a “nerd”. It’s sexier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kal-El814 Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Doing the Trial of the Sword on Master Mode was... difficult. But worth it to have the Master Sword reach its full potential. Honestly weapons breaking was, for me, only really annoying in the beginning when you didn't have a ton of weapon slots. After you fill that out it never really became an issue. I can appreciate people wanting ways to toughen or repair their favorite weapons (other than the quest weapons), a lot of really fun ones aren't super easy to come by. BotW is one of my favorite games but I appreciate some of the vibes that I really like are probably flaws. That clip of negaoryx not realizing a ton of moves were in the game until she'd beaten three of the Divine Beasts is symptomatic of some real discovery issues with the game, as are the fact that you could not realize that the Axl Rose outfit that lets you climb better exists, or that getting Revali's Gale negates most of the complaints about climbing in the rain... etc. Hopefully they find a way to keep the minimalists vibes I liked intact while giving some more options for guidance for people who'd like them.

nublood Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 I was not impressed by the latest trailer at all. If that summarized the setting, atmosphere, gameplay, etc then I’ll probably pass. There was not enough to differentiate it from BOTW. Honestly should’ve waited to launch it on a Switch Pro or next gen console. 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy4000 Posted February 12, 2023 Author Share Posted February 12, 2023 I’d rather not have weapons break, but the game did accomplish it’s goal of making me feel not too attached to any one of them. 8 hours ago, nublood said: I was not impressed by the latest trailer at all.

I’m skeptical about them using the same map, and this trailer made those fears a bit more material. That said, they’ve had many years, and I think we see more of why at some point. I’m just ready to play the game and find out for myself at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
