No.

How in God's name do you look at Bananza and not think it has more potential than Odyssey? You clearly just don't get games.

Fixed.

>>712925929
Thank you for your assistance :)

>>712925279 (OP)
Not in particular. I'm waiting for the Direct with the 2026 titles.

I don't really care about this game, it kind of feels like a somewhat low budget spinoff of odyssey made by some B team while the Mario crew made the next new 3D game. But I will be very interested to watch it to see in what ways Nintendo's game design may be shifting in the new generation. In particular I'll be looking for harder difficulty, whether mandatory or optional and more of a real story rather than Bowser kidnapped peach shit.

>>712925879
God would not want you bringing his name into conversations as trivial and autistic as ITT

>>712926456

They'll just cope and say it's the "principle" of paying ten extra dollars.
And then as soon as the next Elden Ring or Anime Panty Quest or whatever comes out they'll pony up the extra ten dollars and make excuses for themselves about how it doesn't count this time.

Nope. There's no games coming out I want to play. :1

I will pay $70 for the Suzanne game.

No telling what stupid shit you'll put that $20 to use in just one day or meal?

>>712927463
>Why do you play videogames roughly every 2-3 years
Many reasons

>>712926456
Must suck being a fag with zero willpower. Not spending 70 dollars on one (1) video game doesn't mean I don't have a job. I simply refuse, that's all. You faggots are destroying the industry, day by day.
>>712926658
Wrong. I wouldn't even pay 60 for Elden Ring.

>>712927376
It's tomorrow morning at 8:00 AM Central Time.
I think we're all going to be watching it in the v4c live chatroom.

>>712925279 (OP)
Kinda

>>712927230
They confirmed costumes in the Treehouse stream. There's almost certainly going to be a DK64 outfit, or maybe even a DKC outfit shaded like the classic jungle level from the trailer. I'm curious what else they'd do though since DK doesn't have an extensive history of alternate costumes like Mario does.

>>712926240
idort

>>712927653
Oh, thanks

>>712927510
80 is only 10 more than 70.

>>712927667
Suzanne is probably going to have a ton of costumes.

I'll be watching after the fact because fuck waking up early, but yes. I pre-ordered it along with my console, and it's pretty much what sold me on getting one this early. I get Hulk: Ultimate Destruction vibes from what footage I've seen.

Ever heard of a slippery slope, anon?

i will NEVER pay more than 59.99 for a game

>>712927510
It's not about the money. Most games were worth $40, if that. Very, very few were worth $60. No game is worth more than that.

Shit game.

It's already worse than Odyssey because there's no underwater gameplay for some reason. Say goodbye to any aquatic ambience remixes

Only tendies are looking forward to this trash.

>>712925279 (OP)
I hope the sexy chimp girl gets name dropped before my nai subscription ends so e621 can tag her and maybe I can generate slop of her

Super Mario Odyssey was way too easy for me, I'm probably gonna skip Bonanza.

>>712925442
and to make it worse, the faggots completely destroyed the system where you could split the cost with a friend and share the game digitally. and for that, I will no longer buy your console

Please stop complaining about Donkey Kong Bananza.

Ugly fucking game. Kys OP

>>712925279 (OP)
Looking forward to emulating it, because I will never spend $70+ for a game

Beautiful game, have a great afternoon, OP.

If you payed for this, you're a fucking moron.

>>712925879
>How in God's name do you look at Bananza and not think it has more potential than Odyssey?
Breakable areas means nothing is happening in those areas because they were all made to be destroyed. Knowing how DK typically controls, the movement won't hold a candle to how Mario controls with Cappy. Obviously there won't be any of the captures either. None of the Kongs other than Cranky have made an appearance, which is a little worrying. And after forcing myself to suffer through DK64, I have no hope for DK in 3D to be good.
I'd ask instead how do you expect this slop to be better than Odyssey but I can tell you're one of the contrarian faggots that spams the "it's no masterpiece" video at every opportunity.

>>712925279 (OP)
about one of my favorite franchises getting taken out back and shot in the head?
no not really

It's just an appetizer until the next 3D Mario game. A light snack.

>>712928734
>And after forcing myself to suffer through DK64, I have no hope for DK in 3D to be good.
This is the only part of your post I've got a problem with, what a confusingly retarded thing to say. One bad game 25 years ago made by an entirely different group of people means it's impossible to have a good 3D DK game?

>>712929059
>Donkey Kong is finally getting a game with a budget similar to a new Mario game

You fuckers need to die or seek help.

>>712929082
I'm not paying 70 dollars for an appetizer.

I seriously can't believe how hard this board is seething about the Switch 2 and its games. It's insane.

This looks like the Mario team is trying to actually do something new and interesting. Which Odyssey wasn't. It was still a good game though. This looks more ambitious.

Enough with the lies.
Donkey Kong Bananza is not woke.
It is not shovelware.
The disinformation must end.

So how come Ubisoft started making their games like BotW?

>>712925595
Only nintendo games are worth that, nintendo games are the only ones with quality control, you can literally pre order any nintendo first party game and never be disappointed knowing full well that it'll be fun.

>>712930382
What would be those in app purchases???

You don't say. Too bad for you it's still the biggest launch of all time.

Why can't Nintendo make games for adults?
>noooo this baby game is actually for all ages, let me eat dinosaur nuggets and watch Bluey in my Sonic pajamas!

Dark Ages is the only game worth $70 because it has a premium single player experience that has no open world bloat and crafting system fuckery. Just straight up good gameplay.

>>712930789

Are you 12? These are the only ones that think Nintendo games are for children.

>>712930789
Why are you so insulting towards people?

>>712930773
It didn't. American tendies who are the biggest consumers for Nintendo products bought it and predictably Japan bought it because America subsidises the Japanese price to be $340 and they've moved away from home console. There is no point in buying a Switch 2 for another 3 years

>>712930789

>>712931329
>UK
>Europe
kek, okay, ranjeesh

>>712931357
The issue is that no game is worth that price.
And you were as much of a retard if you bought N64 games for $70 in the 90s as you are if you're buying games for $70+ today. I'd pay the 60 for the big Nintendo games, some of the few that are actually worth even that, but that's it, not a cent more.

>>712925279 (OP)
Yes and I want it.
Should I preorder this or would I be able to just walk in and buy it a week or so after release? Physicals shouldn’t be sold out, right?

>>712931357
Nintendo make children's products. During the N64 era games were more like $60 and kids didn't have what they have - infinite free gaming. Fortnite, Roblox etc. Nintendo are going to be catering to the 30+ market. Also half of Nintendo's games are over rated

>>712925279 (OP)
Hyped but also anxious about how it's going to be. I'm really excited for the fact that it's a new 3D Donkey Kong game after 26 years, and it's made in house. But they've also yet the prove if the game is going to be really good. I hope it actually feels and looks like a Donkey Kong game, I'm not a fan of how abstract it looks.

>>712931357
Not my problem.

Cheevos?

>>712931530
UK is the most important market in Europe, the third biggest gaming market in the world. Switch 2 has had an abysmal launch with no games, kids aren't interested at all it's all 35 year olds

>>712931549
All I'm saying is it has been more expensive in the past. And in your opinion, no game is worth that price. I'd of paid $80 for BotW for example. I'll pay $80 for the new Mario, no question. And for me, $70 for a Donkey Kong game is acceptable as long as tomorrow expands on and shows more of the game in the way I expect it to. I would not pay $80 for Mario Kart World, but with the bundle it was $50 and that's an acceptable price for that game.

My biggest gripe with Nintendo pricing is OLD games still being $60 and them basically never having sales.

>>712927007
correction: playing new games is expensive. games that been out for a while, especially western games, are dirt cheap when it's on sale. I also used to get tons of cheap games from the bargain bin at gamestop during 7th gen but I don't know that's still the case, I don't see big releases for something like $15 anymore.

XCI wen

I love that we are pricing brown people out of vidya. Maybe the games will be good again.

>>712925279 (OP)
no but I'm willing to be surprised if it turns out better than the initial look

>>712930882
I've also rarely used filters, mostly just to prevent spoilers. I suggest adding these two permanently.

>>712931632
Fair points, I'm not saying Nintendo games aren't getting more expensive or that I am happy about it but I can stomach a $10 increace. Also worth remembering that Nintendo is providing a premium product: their games will never get licensed to other consoles or PC whereas for both Sony and Microsoft 'exclusives' are largely a thing of the past. Maybe that's how they justify the price increase, I'm not sure. The irony, as that ad you posted indicates, is that back in the day it was 3rd party games like Mortal Kombat that were the premium price, and not Nintendo games.

Donkey Kong Bananza, the day has come
We want to see, who comes back home
Diddy and Dixie, and Funky too
Tiny and Chunky, they should be here too

We want the rest members of the DK crew
Huh!

We want to fight King K. Rool
Until we make him drool
With the Kremlings plotting their scheme
Let's gather our team, live the dream

Mori Calliope, she's got the flow
With her sick beats, she'll steal the show
Rapping with style, and swinging with grace
She'll bring some fire to the DK space

Mario's Daugther is there too
she is her father's pride
With her singing and power, she'll take it in stride
A future star, the legacy's clear
In the DK Bananza, she's ready to steer!

>>712932151
For all the talk about studios closing and losing money and whatever the fuck it seems like no one ever brings up the absolute race to the bottom most publishers seem to do when pricing their older games. Nintendo has a reputation of never dropping prices, but that's exactly why people are willing to pay $60, $70, or $80 for their games. I see all sorts of fairly recent AAA games with huge development staff on sale for dirt cheap in digital marketplaces all the time. I have more games than I could ever possibly play. When something like Persona or The Witcher or whatever goes on sale for $9.99 or whatever the price is less an issue to me than finding the time to play it to begin with, and I'm hesitant to buy new games in the series for full price when I know there are two or three recent entries or similar games that are already in the bargain bin.
And frankly, I feel like most people complaining about game prices must not have any other hobbies because EVERYTHING else I do is far more expensive. Want to go to a live music show at somewhere larger than a dive bar? You're gonna be out $70 after tickets, parking, and a drink or two. Do you read comics? I bought an omnibus two weeks ago for $60 that I've already finished reading. I know a few people who are into Warhammer and you don't even WANT to know how much those little guys cost (along with the paints and shit you need to actually put them together).

It's not for children, that's the problem. They make a product FOR children but children have moved onto Roblox, Minecraft, Fortnite. It is adults in the US and Japan carrying the launch. What happens mid cycle when they need kids? Probably they fall behind Switch 1

I didn't say it was a flop. Nintendo's IP is at peak with the museum and universal studios attraction. But the Switch 2 is another Switch and the games are uninspired. They won't get a covid bump this time so I think year 4 will be much harder

For a game I will rent at most? Sure.

Is it me or does Nintendo never delve into all the details about games they announce anymore? Anytime a big Nintendo game used to get revealed we'd see all these video and written interviews be released over time with Miyamoto and directors and producers. Now when they reveal a game then just stay silent on it for the most part, not giving any additional details about the game or what they're going for. It gives you an empty feeling.

>>712942897
There's going to be a dedicated direct in literally about 12 hours.
