they used to be 3.99 i think
anyway VIRTUAL CONSOLE IS BACK BABY
cant wait for the pc release
Oh, the Arcade Archive series I'll admit that's an awesome collection in itself, but sadly it's digital only and more expensive than VC was. Come on, make 'em cheaper. 😅

I've never bought Sunset Riders because the price of the AA release never went down, even during sales. Sunset Riders is a game I love and completed it multiple times via emulation, anyhow.

If it was the arcade machine? I'd love to have it (if I had space).

That said, if they'd port The Simpsons Arcade to NS2/Xbox/PS5 I'd buy it as it's a longer game and very replayable... I bought it on the 360, yet due to licensing it was never ported to newer consoles.

I'm eyeing digimon time stranger (depending on if someone else takes sciresm's role for atmosphere if it doesn't get dumped i'll just buy it (off steam)
I mean, what's stopping you from buying it on Steam right now? Do you not yet have the PC hardware to run it?* Is it the fact that it's not yet 80+% off, so you can't buy it for chump change while claiming you're supporting a Pokemon competitor? Or maybe it's the fact that the Steam version has Denuvo, which means that pirating it isn't an option until an exploit for the Switch 2 becomes available 3+ years from now?

Either way, there is a demo for the game on Steam, so nothing's stopping you from at least dipping your toe in the water.

*(A Steam Deck purchase would quickly and affordably fix this, I hear. Only USD $549 plus tax, or USD $649 plus tax for larger storage. And for an extra USD $79 plus tax, you can get an official Docking Station to connect the Steam Deck to your TV, letting you get the natural PC gaming experience on the big screen - all without burning a hole in your pocket! (Compatible keyboard, mouse, and controller for docked play each sold separately.))
 
No not really because i'm not getting blind. It's bjectively worst.
I' am so sorry you can't see that. I genuenly feel sorry for you.

Subjectively

Thank you for your sympathy, but video games just aren't an important enough point of my life for me to be bothered if things are getting worse or not.

It actually is. Carying about a corporation is really sad to me.

Huh? You clearly care about Nintendo otherwise you wouldn't be bleating so loudly about how they are much worse now than they were before.

You have to care about something to be affected by how it evolves.

As do i, but thats besides the point.

And i agree, but thats besides the point.

Its actually is, its great to have more options, but thats besides the point.

Same here. And i agree, but thats besides the point.

Thats besides the point.

Thats teh sad part. All those games can be seen as a list on some website or post on twitter or other information websites.Im specifically talking about nintendo being dull and sterile, borring in presentation.

Entertainment as in not just sholing games, but being a entertanment show like E3 was or old Direct With actual planing of entire direct.
Are you okay? Do you need a hug?

If you like the Neogeo games, they are available in physical form on the Switch. The collection is quite expensive though, around $40 per 10 games, and there are 10 volumes.

Getting FFVII Rebirth several months away give me hope for a part 3 simultaneous release on PS5/Switch 2 (it's never gonna happen)
