The last time I paid $80 for a game was when I purchased Bangai-O for the N64 importing it from Japan CIB. That was the most I ever paid for a game. Presently $40 is a strain on the old wallet. I don't have the Switch 2. But upgrading to the next generation is just totally out of my reach now-a-days.

Rate resistance really hits me at the 70-dollar mark when it comes to games. It's been a long time since I've dug into a Fire Emblem game, doens't look like I'm gonna break that streak any time soon.

Nintendo - Switch 2, Switch, 3DS, and Wii-U / Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave

Last post by BLUEVOODU - August 07, 2026, 06:18:37 PM

Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave is coming to the Nintendo Switch 2.  There seems to be a good amount of buzz around this title... The Fire Emblem series is widely popular.  This is also one of the few $80 games right now. 

Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave looks like it might be cool... but I'm out at $80.  For me, it's going to have to be a mind blowing title for $80.

Release date: 09/17/26
Price: $80 physical $70 digital
Nintendo Direct Link: https://www.nintendo.com/us/nintendo-direct/8-4-2026/

Amazon Affiliate Pre-order link: https://amzn.to/4hW186h
The price is $70 right now for physical on Amazon

Are you excited for this title and looking forward to another entry in the Fire Emblem series?  Thoughts, comments... post it up!

@mastermario  --> I know... Goldeneye LOL.  When we played that... I was all over the place.  I'm not even sure I killed you.  The floor and ceiling were Swiss cheese... barely hit a wall.

I need to try the Super Mario 64 Mod with you and @SpartanEvolved.   I wonder if one will come out for DK64.

Honestly, I haven't even tried DK64 yet... I am excited about this.  Times are just busy right now.

LOL... So, I still have not played this game... outside turning it on.  I think I will earmark 15-30 minutes Sunday for this.  I need to state I've played it!

@targetrasp what about you?

Did anyone else end up buying this game?

Well then... I need to look into Tubi!  Haven't tried it yet.  Now that everything else has gone to ads, there's less hold out I suppose

Saw Spider-Man Brand New Day Friday... and I will say... it's probably the best Spider-Man ever made.


Won't give spoilers yet... this movie is amazing.

Post it up!
