Last post by CreepinDeth - Today at 01:38:51 AMQuote from: retro junkie on July 11, 2025, 10:11:33 AMPeople are now getting banned for inserting used games? This is not the only place that I have read this, there are also YouTube videos.

Last I heard this might not be true. A lot of the stories seem to be repeats of the original, just posted on other sites.
If Nintendo truly has this capability, I don't think they would have waited until now to start banning consoles. People have been dumping their carts for years. This would've been done a long time ago and we would've heard more stories.
I think some people aren't telling the full story.
Nintendo still sucks though for how they're handling "piracy."

Last post by BLUEVOODU - July 10, 2025, 06:25:31 PMYeah - Nintendo prices just don't fall LOL... 
I don't see discounts on Switch 1 prices as well. I upgraded my original Switch to the OLED version. The original Nintendo Switch is 7 years old? 2017. Joy Cons were sent into Nintendo and fixed. They work pretty well and have been working. I might be interested in parting with it... maybe not as well. I need to think about it - if interested. Boxed... box might be a bit sun faded.
Anyone else looking to pick up a Switch 2?

Last post by BLUEVOODU - July 10, 2025, 06:16:19 PMok - so the grind is pretty hard? That was my worry on the Lunar games. If I remember correctly, that was a thing in the past. They are definitely great games. Hard to put a ton of time into them with life as is and current gaming ADD

Last post by BLUEVOODU - July 10, 2025, 06:08:00 PMWho has been playing Mario Kart World on the Nintendo Switch 2? I believe at least @Bomber Man and @CreepinDeth has been lol 
The open world is pretty cool... interesting in how you switch between objectives and challenges while driving in the open world. I have very light experience so far... but watching and playing more.
Outside the $80 physical media cost ($50 with Switch 2 Console Bundle)... what excites you about this title? Anything giving you pause?

Last post by BLUEVOODU - July 10, 2025, 05:30:18 PMDoes it blow any one else's mind that "remastered" could ever be added to a Crysis title?
Well... this has also been released for the Nintendo Switch. It was released a long time ago - July 23, 2020 and I totally missed it. I am going to give it a shot... just because.
It's still about $40 and is on Amazon and other stores (Amazon affiliate link):

It has been confirmed - Nintendo Switch can run Crysis lol I am pumped to try it out.
Have you played Crysis on the Switch? Thoughts, comments... post it up!

General Discussion / Re: New Price Points of Video ...
Last post by BLUEVOODU - July 10, 2025, 04:11:35 PMI had a whole response I was writing and lost it. 
This will be the shortened version.
Neo Geo cart games back in the day were super expensive as well... while SNES games were in the $49-69 range, they were going for $150 each. There was a Genesis racing game (Virtua Racing) with the SVP (Sega Virtua Processor) chip that I think debuted for $99 if my memory serves me right. I remember back in the day... I was like "$100... what the heck?!" Star Fox with the SFX chip was $59.99. Those were expensive... but I do remember some sales... also remember mowing many yards to purchase more LOL.
N64 games jumped up to the $75's if I remember those right.
Thank you for the heads up on Bangai-O. I have one excellent in box... I might look to lighten the collection soon. We will see.
It is awesome to see the home brew communities. I was trying (way back on the old store) to give a platform for home brew communities to launch titles for different systems. It didn't work out at the time - long story... but it was an interesting run at the concept! Glad to see they're still live and well.
$80 for Mario Kart world is a bit pricey... though the arguments for inflation aren't wrong... it still doesn't take away the sting of the game prices.
