Crash Bandicoot 4 Switch version potentially revealed via website source code

aaUntitled.png

Crash Bandicoot 4 is on its way to launching later this fall, for both the Xbox One and PlayStation 4. This leaves Nintendo Switch fans in the dust, especially given the fact that the Crash N.Sane Trilogy was previously released on the console. However, not all hope is lost just yet, as Activision may have just unintentionally outed a port of Crash 4 for the platform. On the official website for the game, you can see that pre-orders are live for both the Xbox One and PlayStation 4, which is fairly obvious, but if you dig into the source code of the website, it also shows a hidden option to buy the game on the Switch. While this doesn't confirm a port to the system, it seems very likely, especially when this incident has happened before, with Activision accidentally letting a pre-order page for Spyro: Reignited Trilogy for PC and Switch go up weeks before the ports were officially confirmed.

Welp, not surprising after Crash and Spyro trilogies. Trying to get people to double dip.

Eh, more like getting more sales. People with both a Switch and a PS4/PS4 Pro is rare.

Heck the main selling point of the Switch on release was it being cheaper and Zelda.

I don't have a PS4, the games for it are freaking expensive.

What? Most people I know have both (if they have switch I mean). Also, games are far less expensive in any console than switch xD

Hmm from my experience ps4 games are cheaper than Switch games, at least where I live. Some switch games still cost nearly the same as the release price (BOTW, some Mario games). The switch console itself is more expensive as well

I feel like this was a really obvious conclusion. Barring CTR, Activision has released all of the Crash/Spyro stuff on PC/Switch, just sometime after the initial launch for the other platforms.

It still bothers me exactly how much of a time gap there is between the initial release and the PC port, while for the Switch I can somewhat understand that since it is the weaker platform after all.

I love Crash Bandicoot and Spyro, you know, and I was hoping they'd receive quality games again and they did.. but I don't seem to be interested anymore. Don't know why, really. I guess I'm growing out of it.

Anyhow, I wish Crash looked furry because he's a bit plasticky looking.

Regardless of how we all feel about the Epic Games Store, one thing is certain, they've given out a ton of quality games to everyone out there. Even GTA V.

Speaking of GTA V, when I visit my nephew I play death match with him on PS3 online and it's a lot of fun, so kids who play that will surely be upset when SONY or Rockstar shut it down. It's not a whole lot of parents who'd agree to pay for an online subscription.

Well, both models of the Switch were selling like hot pancakes during the past couple of years and it's arguably the best console to play platformers on, so... Yeah, it would be foolish not to port the new Crash game onto it. :wink:

    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

    This looks like one of their premium models, so... $150 :glare:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
