Does the eShop have frequent sales compared to PSN? So many titles will burn a hole in the pocket

 

[andymcc]

Blaster master zero!!!! M2 fuck yeah!

 

[Farmboy]

Quick NeoGAF hivemind, please tell me which of these are best for:

2 player co-op
and.or
4 (or more) player party fun

 

[UnemployedVillain]

Yaaay a bunch of indies that have been out on other platforms for a long time.

And yet here you are, still mad over it and bothered enough to have to downplay it lol

 

[randomengine]

Yaaay a bunch of indies that have been out on other platforms for a long time.

Half of those games are new, exclusive, timed exclusive, or contain exclusive features. Try again.

 

[brandonh83]

Does the eShop have frequent sales compared to PSN? So many titles will burn a hole in the pocket

eshop sales are usually dreadful.

 

[gogojira]

Ignore the shitpost. Tons of great indies new and old coming, and a few exclusives, too.

 

[BooJoh]

So is Shovel Knight two different games? or do you get both when you buy it?

Treasure Trove is like getting the game + a season pass (all three campaigns plus upcoming King Knight DLC and Battle Mode DLC)

The others are all $10 each separately but don't require the base game.

 

[Zedark]

There we go, we needed to get one of them in before the thread got too long.

You didn't pay attention to the presentation or you're just dense.

 

[Eliseo]

That list needs to add Hollow Knight, awesome game!

 

[RichiRamjag]

Yaaay a bunch of indies that have been out on other platforms for a long time.

If you don't care, then why do you have to come around spreading negativity?

 

[Spades]

Yaaay a bunch of indies that have been out on other platforms for a long time.

Couldn't agree more. Don't understand the hype, personally. It's not even the portability factor.

 

[names2hard4you]

Goddamn at that list. Seems the Switch will be my go to for Indie games going forward. My trusty old OLED Vita will finally be getting a break after so many years of Indie fun.

 

[GiantBreadbug]

Sure, I know some of them are already confirmed for physical release.

Just trying to chip in about how physical product is going to be a big deal for Switch.

Honestly it's not a huge deal for me considering the file size of a lot of these games means I can fit more on less space. Tho I'll always be pleased to buy physical when it's an option. But I won't be missing out on some of these just because they're digital only.

 

[The Big N]

I give Nintendo credit for reaching out to these indies. I think we all know western third party AAA games may not have a huge presence on the console, but the indies can fill in the gap between big releases. A lot of these indies are best play on mobile and the Switch seems like the superior platform for them.

 

[I Wanna Be The Guy]

Yaaay a bunch of indies that have been out on other platforms for a long time.

YES!

We're finally there guys. If it wasn't 100% certain that Switch was the reincarnation of Vita, reading this post confirms it. Tears of joy right now.

 

[Robert at Zeboyd Games]

Well, I just sent another email to Nintendo. My first email, just mentioned our game with links to more info; this time, I did more of a sale pitch (our best-selling game has over 700k owners just on Steam, Cosmic Star Heroine was voted in the Top 40 Most Anticipated Games of 2017 on NeoGAF, almost a quarter of a million views combined on our 3 most popular youtube videos for CSH, etc.) so we'll see if we get any further this time.

 

[Kyou]

Vita * Wii U = Nintendo Switch
Multiplying two negatives gives you a positive

damn this is a good post

 

[RaidenZR]

Are there a list of dates for this new list in the OP? I only know of Blaster Master being near launch out of all the new stuff shown...

 

[Jaded Alyx]

eshop sales are usually dreadful.

Indie sales are usually decent though.

 

[Spades]

If you don't care, then why do you have to come around spreading negativity?

So you're only allowed to post if you're going to be positive about something on GAF?

 

[Lil'DigiOp]

My List ( For Future Reference)

Blaster Master
Hollow Knight
Pocket Rumble
SteamWorld Dig 2
Fast RMX
Cave Story
Enter the Gungeon
Gonner
Mr Shifty
Jackbox Party Pack
Graceful Explosion Machine (???)
Shovel Knight (??? I have the PS4 retail copy)


Shit... those are some dope ass games.

 

[TheFuzz]

Lol

Couldn't agree more. Don't understand the hype, personally. It's not even the portability factor.

You don't understand because you didn't watch the presentation or see you have no clue what you're talking about.

 

[broncobuster]

We'll see how it is on the Switch but 3DS and Wii U sales are bad next to PSN, which is in itself a step back from PC. Say, expect 30% off.

 

[franklyshankly]

YES!

We're finally there guys. If it wasn't 100% certain that Switch was the reincarnation of Vita, reading this post confirms it. Tears of joy right now.

Wait... is that a good thing?

 

[astrogamer]

I'll buy any of these if they get physical releases. Might have to think a little on them if they're digital only.

Redout is getting Physical. Nicalis also hinted that Cave Story and 1001 Spikes might get some too. Yacht Club said Shovel Knight won't get physical until King's Knight campaign gets released

 

[Shizza]

Buying the 200GB memory card was the right choice.

Definitely interested in a ton of the games coming to Switch.

 

[gtj1092]

This is the most promising list of indies I may have ever seen.

Lots of great games but is this the only list of indie games you've ever seen?

 

[SinCityAssassin]

That list needs to add Hollow Knight, awesome game!

It's in there.

 

[GiantBreadbug]

So you're only allowed to post if you're going to be positive about something on GAF?

Nah but you should probably know what you're talking about / have some semblance of a point if you don't wanna be called out for shitposting

 

[T.O.P]

Sooo many freakin games

Brb buying that damn memory card

 

[I Wanna Be The Guy]

Wait... is that a good thing?

You're damn right it is.

 

[CharminUltra]

This list is dope.

Brb buying that damn memory card

GDI you're right. Sigh. Good thing I already had my eyes on a pretty good one.

 

[brandonh83]

Indie sales are usually decent though.

Ah yeah, correction. I was definitely thinking of their first party sales.

 

[Moments hunter]

So Rebellion is remastering Rouge Trooper from 2006 then?

Yes, they have just posted teaser trailer.
Interesting that this is considered as indie. But I do not complain. I really liked the game. One of the last solid B score game.

 

[darkazcura]

NBA Playgrounds? What is this? Was there footage?

 

[killroy87]

I hope Nintendo gets their shit together with eShop sales this gen. I want so many of these, but can't afford all of them at full price, and eShop sales are usually terrible. I'd also like to make Switch the primary platform for some games I lready own, like towerfall, but I'm not paying full price for that again.

 

[Mithos]

Not too much interesting...
Possibly RIME, Yooka-Laylee, FAST rmx and Snake Pass (from that picture of logos).

 

[LegendofLex]

Honestly it's not a huge deal for me considering the file size of a lot of these games means I can fit more on less space. Tho I'll always be pleased to buy physical when it's an option. But I won't be missing out on some of these just because they're digital only.

It's not the space that concerns me as much as wanting to be able to share these games with my wife once she gets her own Switch. If Nintendo had a family sharing option, I'd be all over digital for every indie game.

 

[PreyingShark]

Hope you guys will buy Pocket Rumble, it deserves more love.

Buying it day 1. It looks great.

In general it's like, I thought I'd have nothing to really buy after launch until the end of April and thus could save up money for some dragon dildos a new laptop. Why do you do this to me Nintendo

 

[JustenP88]

FAST RMX is going to be something special.

Releasing on launch date, HD Rumble, $20. I really hope it has a sizable attach rate. Same for Snipperclips.

I wonder how long that 64GB card I bought last week will last me. "I won't need anything bigger for a while!" Lol...

 

[AcademicSaucer]

Mr Shifty looks like fun

 

[Nintenleo]

Nintendo understood perfectly the situation. Without a lot of third party AAA titles, but with the power of their brand and their first party games, Indie developers find a perfect environment for their works on Switch. The console is even powerful enough to handle the same version of the games already developed for PC and other machine without any problems.

Eshop will focus a lot on these titles and I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of indie games will have a retail release on Switch (like Binding of Isaac and Has Been Heroes).

And DUCK GAME JOY-CONS MADNESS IS HERE GUYS.

 

[kami_sama]

Well, I just sent another email to Nintendo.

I hope you get your dev kit
Would love to see CSH come to the console!

If your game comes to Switch, I'd be glad to double dip on it.

 

[Raysoul]

So you're only allowed to post if you're going to be positive about something on GAF?

If he expressed negativity as he doesn't feel the games, he can post it. He shitposted by saying all of these are already on other consoles (which is straight up false) where most of the games are timed exclusive/exclusive/with exclusive features,.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Not too much interesting...
Possibly RIME, Yooka-Laylee, FAST rmx and Snake Pass (from that picture of logos).

...Did you watch the presentation? A bunch of logos isn't going to tell you much.

 

[KingBroly]

Thumper better have HD Rumble

 

[GiantBreadbug]

Ah, yeah that does sting a lot. One of the things I'm not too keen on about the Switch right now.

 

[EDarkness]

You'll get there, man. Don't even sweat it.
