Nintendo is on the same level as HP for me. As in they will never get another cent from me.

i REFUSE to pay 500 for the new switch, i don't even want to play any Nintendo games at this moment.

[-] lud@lemm.ee 12 points 6 days ago

It sounds like you shouldn't buy the switch regardless of cost if you don't want to play any Nintendo games on it.

[-] h3mlocke@lemm.ee 2 points 6 days ago

Yeah if I didnt want to play any nintendo games, I probably wouldn't buy a switch.

its like they're trying to make PlayStation a monopoly, or is it all apart of the plan?

Cant be... Astro's Playroom was free.

My switch is in the closet, so no. But, if I did currently play switch games, yeah.

I dislike the pricing, but I feel like it's probably fair. I like comparing $price/hr-entertainment vs. going to the movies. I think for most games, it will still be better value. But, I can understand using other metrics. A dropout.tv subscription is only 6.99/mo and there's at least a couple hours of new stuff being added to that each month, I think.

I play my Switch now and then, and tend to dump unnecessary amounts of money towards always having the latest console, but there's been nothing shown that has tempted me to get a Switch 2. I'll wait until there's a new Zelda game and an OLED model.

For Metroid, NGC games library and an NGC controller, hell fucking yeah

[-] WolfLink@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Sounds like you should buy a Nintendo Game Cube

Also you can use a GameCube Controller with the Switch 1.

[-] Shardikprime@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Oh believe me I have tried, getting a used one in good condition, no chipped, here (SA) with working controllers is extremely hard. Forget mint, that's impossible.

Also the games are all scratched for some reason and tend to not read sometimes

The memory cards, those are the easiest to solve but the rest is a problem

About the NGC controller on switch, yeah I was aware as well, but haven't really needed it, i want it mostly to play NGC games. The switch controllers are really good for the switch games so I haven't suffered on that front

I was able to get a GameCube (a little beat up but works great) at a gaming convention. They sold some games in good condition too. You can also find this stuff at small local gaming stores. I’ve had some luck with ordering from Etsy but it’s much better if you can inspect the goods in person.

You can also find GameCube controllers at those stores, but the ones I’ve been using are the modern reproductions Nintendo has made the last couple times a Smash Bros has come out. You can find these on Amazon. They are brand new authentic controllers, so much better than you can find even at the best local game shop.
