It's a really lousy thing to lock a difficulty mode in dlc but what makes it even worse is that it's tied to a physical product that makes it limited so even if someone wants to spend the money and get the dlc they may not be able to. Poor form Nintendo.

That guy who had plastic surgery to look like Squall got me thinking. How about taking shit a step further and getting someone to go for the Raziel from Legacy of Kain look? Complete with broken wings and a missing jaw bone.

Now that would be a badass motherfucker.

I love that this is the NYT description of Sony:

Tokyo-based Sony, which makes the Spider-Man series movies and the PlayStation 4 game console

Hey, at least the Switch is getting ports of some good Resident Evil games. I'd still rather play them on the PS4, but great choices for Switch only people.

Wait...didn't the Wii U also get Revelations? So it's another Wii U port....LOL

I really think they should just port all the old RE games to it. Nintendo consoles have never seen RE5 or 6 which would be pretty neat on there. Hell the PS4 even has Code Veronica as a digital game. Could throw that on Switch too.

Myself...I'm still not exactly dying for a Switch. It's going to take Mario being absolutely amazing for me to really NEED a Switch before Metroid.

Seems Capcom is pulling a cheapo move with Revelaitons 1 and 2 on Switch

"At retail across North America you will find these two games as a combo pack dubbed Resident Evil Revelations Collection, which includes one cartridge with Revelations as well as a digital download voucher for Revelations 2 for $39.99"

So you only get R1 on the actual cart and to play R2 you have to download it. Buy a bigger cart Capcom?

LOL at Nintendo's battery indicator firmware fix

said:

Important:

The battery charge display will not be fixed immediately after performing the steps below only once. It will be necessary to repeat this process several times.


Complete These Steps:

  1. Ensure the console has the latest system update. The steps below apply to system menu version 3.0.1 or higher.
  2. Set the Auto-Sleep mode to "Never" for "Playing on Console Screen" and for "Connected to TV."
  3. Connect the AC adapter directly to the console until the battery is fully charged.
    • If the battery charge indicator does not reach 100%, simply allow the console to charge for approximately three hours.
    • The console can be in use while it is charging.
  4. Once the battery is fully charged, leave the console alone for one hour with the AC adapter still connected to it.
  5. Afterward, disconnect the AC adapter and allow the console to display the HOME Menu for approximately three to four hours.
    • The remaining battery life must be depleted as much as possible.
  6. Once the battery charge is almost depleted, power off the console by holding down the POWER Button for three seconds, then select "Power Options" > "Turn Off." Leave the console alone for at least 30 minutes.
  7. Repeat steps 2 - 6 several times.
    • The battery charge indicator will improve gradually by repeating this process several times.

Really?

I would actually buy a RE5 and 6 double pack on Switch.

Revelations 2 is great, everyone get it.

Let's pass the test so we can get RE4 portable.

I dispise the notion that if we want more games on a system by some developer, we should buy their other games first.  You know what I'd get in a heartbeat on Switch Capcom?  a NEW monster hunter game, not some 3rd rehash of MH4.

Everyone wants to charge us for everything. That's life. I hate it, but it's a thing. At least it sounds cheap.

But like the blog itself says, you need money like an XBL subscription to pay for dedicated servers.

I'd imagine though to a good portion of people these games are new to them.
And I really don't think they are doing this business model of "buy these & we'll make you something new later".

The other systems are full of ports of old games mixed in with the new, which I don't have a problem with. I think it's great.
But the Switch let's face it has the issue of requiring more work to get NEW games scaled down to run on it since it's not on par technology wise. These developers are already doing more work to scale UP to PC, PS4 Pro & Xbox XXX so where do they decide enough is enough?

I'm expecting Switch to be known as a system for old PS & Xbox ports mixed in with a FEW newer games, things that make sense maybe stuff like Overwatch that would make Blizzard lots of money to make a scaled down port worth it. Then Nintendo doing their usual thing but also with lots of old Wii/Wii u ports.

It's never going to be any kind of main system for fresh brand new 3rd party shit. If you want that stuff get another machine just like every other generation for the past 25 years.
