So apparently people have discovered that some Switch kiosks are using a PS3 to play the video that shows on the screen.
The online service sounds like its every bit as bad as had been feared. That alone could sink the long-term prospects for Splatoon 2.
I don't really see it killing the long-term of Splatoon 2. Honestly, as poorly as the Wii U sold, Splatoon was still a major success. They are doing 2 years of Splatfest instead of just one.
I do see it hurting team play though..and really hoping maybe they fix this disaster before it gets too late, but knowing Nintendo...I'm not holding my breath.
Still looking forward to the game overall though.
Defintely surprising but also let's still take it as it's Capcom with a grain of salt. They've said one thing and done another to Nintendo systems for 20 years now. I hope they're being honest, but at the least I could see them go cheap and just port over finally MMLegacy 2 and that Disney Afternoon line-up NES pack as well.Capcom considers Ultra Street Fighter II a "smash hit" and is preparing multiple new Switch titles.
Almost half a million sold on a brand new system in roughly 2 months since launch. Not bad for yet another Street Fighter II update, especially at $40.
Roughly 1/10 Switch owners worldwide bought the game.
...and Namco Museum. I want it, but $30 is just too steep for a small bundle of games on a download only. It barely has more than the PS3 bundle they did a few years back and it was maybe like $10. If that came out on a physical copy I'd buy it though. It appears you can get it, so it'll be some collectard shit storm, on a real disc but it seems to be some pack-in with a custom $150 leather carrying case for the system I saw in a story yesterday or day before.
I'm the same. I really want it but 」30 is way too steep. I'd pay that for a physical copy, but not digital.
Edit: I went ahead and bought it on the Japanese eShop. Worked out at 」24 from there, which was just cheap enough to make me go for it.
Switch is still heavily supply constrained but it has made all the difference in the world.
The current financial troubles of electronics conglomerate, Toshiba, is one of the likely contributions to the shortage of NAND flash memory. Toshiba is the second largest supplier of flash memory in the global market (second only to Samsung) and also the first company to begin producing NAND flash memory. The company has also struggled with the production of 3D NAND memory, further impacting the company.
However, Toshiba's woes stem from the acquisition of a company to build nuclear power plants in the USA. The project resulted in the overrun of construction costs, accounting scandals, legal actions, unhappy stockholders, and billions of dollars in debt for the company.
As a result, Toshiba has recently announced that it will be selling off the company's semiconductor division which produces NAND memory. Likely bidders include Western Digital, Micron Technology, and SK Hynix.
Samsung's recall of the Galaxy Note 7 smartphone also contributed to the global shortage, as millions of devices had to be returned and replaced in the market, along with each devices flash memory unit.
Have anyone bought Overcooked? I wanted to buy this but after comments/digital foundry that it has framerate issues etc. I am waiting that it will be updated first. This trend is stupid that games are released buggy and updated later. I kinda understand for games COD,Fallout etc. which has much competition and arriving before holidays/other big games will make so much more money etc. but with Overcooked it is like one year old game that it would not matter if it arrived to eshop next month.
Already beat the Splatoon 2 single player campaign. Wasn't all that hard and might go back to find all the scrolls at some point. Haven't gotten to play a whole lot of multiplayer and no salmon runs quite yet. I can definitely see how it feels like an expansion for certain, but still enjoy it quite a bit.
Haven't gotten around to playing my copy of Cave Story as of yet, but definitely need to.

The boss stages in Splatoon 2 are pretty awesome. The regular levels kind of drag sometimes, but man, the boss fights make up for it. I was tempted to quit playing the game going through the first set of stages and then I got to the toaster and went whoa alright I can dig it. Others have been good too.
