With all the people turning on Nintendo lately Sony has the chance to do something really cool if they pick up the slack here.

Between the price increases and this weird Neptunia situation, we may be on the verge of a bit of a disturbing policy shift for Nintendo. Kyle Bosman was remarking about it this morning on Delayed Input.

I cant say that I've seen anything thus far that justifies for my tastes, what spending $500 will get me when I'm perfectly fine playing older things I already have (& have no time to sit and enjoy anyways).

You wanna know what Dystopia looks like? Search "Nintendo Switch 2 Game-Key Card". I think we're done gaming folks.

After playing the first 3 hours of Deaths end Re; quest 1 I can safely say two things
1) Kayli Mills must of had rent due that week because those were some legit blood curdling screams.
2) what the hell was so wrong with the rebirths* that outmatched DERQ?!
That game opened with the most *tasteful* of panty shots…. On a headless corpse.

*okay, CFW Tricks character was a CHOICE, and some shots are… super questionable bit.

I'll probably just get the PC versions. Maybe they'll run better there. Better than waiting for ports on Switch 2 or Xbox.

How do you get people to play a rerelease of niche games that originally debuted on the PS3?

Funny that the platform that is friendly to these types of games keeps bouncing back and forth between Sony and Nintendo.

"Requires game download" is already a thing on the Switch, this is just a new, clearer name for it. And the other systems have it too. I don't like it, but this is unfortunately nothing new.
