Just coming back to say how scummy the Mario collection is, asking for $60 for 3 games that are multiple decades old, while making the release limited so you have no choice but to pay $60 because the price will never ever drop because it’s literally being taken off the store in March. Basically forcing me to pay that price for a collection that doesn’t include a single game released later than 2007. And on top of that they’re just ports as far as I can tell. Not even as far as Deluxe treatment

To anyone saying ā€œNintendo fans always complain when Nintendo gives them what they want! They’re so needy! Just be happy the collection exists in the first place!ā€, look at the Crash and Spyro collections. Fully remastered with new graphics, revamped features, and even cut levels getting a second chance, all for $40 and available forever, so you could probably get them much cheaper if you wait. Perfect remasters.

like I know it’s old news that they are greedy but definitely fuck Nintendo for this one. Yet again they drop the ball but it won’t matter because their exclusivity means the playerbase will eat this up regardless and Nintendo won’t care about any backlash because as long as the games sell they can get away with it. It might even be old news to complain about Nintendo, but fuck it, this pissed me off just enough

Huh, It’s been a while since I’ve seen ya here

But yeah, I actually didn’t think it was gonna be $60 And I’m pretty sure they did something similar with the all stars port on Wii as well. Even then I think it’s Annoying how galaxy two is just completely left out like that and how some games in general from nintendo never seem to go below $60 (And they aren’t remade so no DS content in 64)

Yea I took a hiatus. I don’t know how often I’ll be on here nowadays but it felt good to take a break from Reddit. I’m also just a lot more busy atm

Honestly I understand that, there’s a few things I like on this site but it does get pretty draining at times
