Speaking of which is @SLoWMoTIoN still alive. I haven't had him making fun of me in a few days.
Did you see his support role in Tokyo Mirage Sessions?

My noir was delivered! Did you get yours?

I can’t find your post on Game & Watch case/cover. We’re you looking for a screen protector or something for the entire handheld?

Mine got delayed a day. You'll have to let me know how you like it. I need to order a SD card for it. Looks like some are on sale on Amazon right now.

And yes, was looking for a glass screen protector for the screen. I see a handful on Amazon Japan but nothing on Amazon US.

I’ll let you know how it is. I’m super excited to try it out.

I’ll look for screen protectors. It might be a little bit before any roll out for this niche product. I couldn’t find anything here in my search. It’s a good idea though.
 
I'm having horrific flashbacks to Ultimate Ghouls 'n Ghosts. A lousy game in its own right, made 100x worse by the PSP-1000's abysmal d-pad. Truly the bad ol' days.

I bought Darkstalkers for the OG PSP back in the day, fucking impossible with that thing. Then I bought Street Fighter Alpha 3 Max because I have the brainpower of a feral ape. Managed slightly with that crappy little nub stick though but goddamn.

Huh. My interest is now piqued. Tell me more Woopah Woopah .
This is what Capcom's Switch support looks like next year:

February: Ghost n Goblins (timed exclusive for 3 months)
March: Monster Hunter Rise (timed exclusive for 6 months)
Q2: Great Ace Attorney collection (Switch version expected to do best)
June:Monster Hunter Stories (Switch console exclusive)
Q3: Ace Attorney 7 (Switch version expected to do best)
Holiday: Resident Evil game (Switch lead platform)

There's also a project called Arcade (collection of old games maybe?) and RE3 is coming to Switch via the cloud. It's possible we see other Capcom projects coming to the cloud too.

It seems it's being made in the Switch version of the RE engine which is interesting. Switch will be Capcom's most important platform for the next 18 months which is a big turn around.
I already seen some people expecting/hoping for rumored Revelations 3 to be Switch exclusive 😂

Still pretty interesting and will calm down the fans complaining Capcom isn't in bed with the Switch

It's taken Capcom a long time to catch up as they didn't plan to support Switch in the beginning. It took the strong sales in 2017 to change their mind.

Some publishers (like Koei Techmo) were able to adapt quickly while others (like Capcom and Atlus) took a bit longer. Japan's support for the Switch will be very strong from 2021 onwards.

They had good reason to be cautious imo, plus making games takes a lot of time and resources they were using at the time on the twins/PC

Im happy they finally are on board, even if this forum now hates them for going woke 🤭 (i don't think it will go THAT bad not worried yet :p)

How about someone at Konami wake up and license out their IPs if they refuse to make news games? I’d even take straight ports of old games.

True but the 3DS did fairly well, as have all Nintendo handhelds. I think the issue was that too many publishers saw the platform as a Wii U successor rather then a Wii U - 3DS successor.

Really not worried about the "woke" stuff at all. A character's skin colour, gender or sexual orientation has never bothered in the past and so I don't see why it would bother me in the future. The developers can make whatever type of character they want.

Don't think it's so much that they refuse to make games, it's more that their heinous behavior towards former employees has likely caused them to not be able to attract half decent talent at this point, that's the type of shit you can pull off only once in a super high employment country like Japan. You might get a few more ports here and there though.

In Japan Konami just launched one of Switch's biggest third party games so they do make some stuff! It just isn't always stuff that comes to the West.

They still have some decent devs there don't get me wrong, I know they make some popular games still. But I just mean to say that attracting people good enough to make a triple A Metal Gear, Castlevania or whatever else for example is going to be extremely hard for them. If you're good enough to make games like that, you'll have multiple companies lined up for you and if I were one of those guys I'd take one look at Konami and run the opposite direction knowing what they're like. Probably not a dream for a high end dev to end up forced to work in a fucking fitness center is all I'm saying.

I can agree with that, of the big 6 third party publishers in Japan they're definitely the least interesting.

You know, I wouldn't mind some Dead Rising games on the Switch.

With next-gen starting to happen, and the ports getting more difficult from here on out, I’d like them to focus on this kind of stuff for ports. Make Switch a one-stop shop for classic games that you can enjoy at home or on the go.

If 360 era, you can even put a little love into them, or a little max PC settings, and make them run and look better than they ever had, like Codemasters did for Grid Autosport.

Reliable sources familiar with @SLoWMoTIoN 's thinking, have informed me that he's currently broke from spending all his money on Genshin Impact and is wandering the streets mumbling something incoherent about anime titties.
I've never spend a cent on gacha and never will.

Idk how but this is all your fault.

Edit: Gone already, wow!
They have been selling out instantly. Faster than the next gen consoles. These are eligible for the Buy 2 Get 1 deal too so some people have been buying three. It looked like Wario64 said that Target was shipping now. Wish I had ordered there.

Hoping my GameStop order comes through without any fuss.
