Its a pretty good outcome but the games with "resolved" issues are not all good news.
Some examples (all from different games):
- Remaining on the title screen for 30 seconds will cause an error to trigger and the game will close. Please navigate away from the title screen before the error occurs.
- Inputting a particular sequence of controls in a stage may on rare occasion cause the game to close.
- Slowdown may occur in some parts of the game
- Screen distortion may occur in some parts of the game
- When Nintendo Switch 2 players battle Nintendo Switch players online, Nintendo Switch players' character models will have distorted textures.
Still, if they have identified these issues it says a fair bit about how though their testing was.
At that point is not really oblivion?!
Transferable licence.
They can be sold, gifted, inherited, etc.
Its the same concept as a stub game disc which requires a full online install (something Xbox used for cross-gen one/series titles).
Its nothing like the account tied physical sales they proposed at the Xbox one announcement.
Switch 2 game-key cards won’t be account- or console-locked
What? Of course not ... that's why they are in the form of game cards.
I don't think he has a great understanding of Australian prices.
The current MKW price of au$120 looks high but if you remove our GST and convert to USD with the average exchange rate over the last 12 months its equivalent to us$70.85. (Donky Kong is au$110 or us$65).
We are currently at a low point with our dollar so the conversion for MKW today would be us$66.49. (DK would be us$61).
Compared to the prices I'm seeing internationally it looks like Australia is getting relatively generous prices from Nintendo.
Except Mario Kart has had its fair share of paid post release content lately. We can't expect it to be the one-off purchase it once was.
As a bundled launch title I expect most launch window sales will be digital. There won't be 2nd hand game cards on the market in any volume until after they drop the bundle.
It looks better than the art for the new snow bros game
