It’s a very notable Japanese shmup within its niche, one of those very expensive Sega Saturn imports, previously only on 360 for NA/Europe.
Not sure but at least things are looking better for Ukraine. I honestly think Nintendo is just using it as an excuse at this point.
Damn. Didn't realize the original came out around 9/11 too. I never owned a GBA but discovered Advance Wars later only in the past few years. I have only played part of the tutorial as I intend to play the full game on Switch when the remake comes out.
Either it's same Ole games on sale or I'm missing something.
Pikmin 3 is on sale if you're into that kind of game.
I thought it looked good too. It is on my wish list at the moment, but it will need to go on sale for more than a dollar off before I pick it up.
s with the game logic. Additionally, it's not like the PS3 would easily pull off 60 FPS anyway. I even get why they used the PS3 port for PC, it was a quick and dirty port done without much expectation sales-wise (Tales games were new to the platform).
It was the first video game I ever gave up on. After that I realized RPGs are not for me.Well this one popped up today, Tales of Djungarian Hamster is at its lowest price ever. No lie, I sunk 30 hours into it trying to breed all the different hamsters. Slow paced and not for everyone, but super cute and fun if you like watching hamsters run around and interact with all the wacky objects you can put in their cage.
I've played it on PS5 but it's a really fun game. I've put like 40 hours into it and every other day or so still do a run (which takes about 40 minutes once you're fully upgraded)
The lengths Capcom will go to avoid making new Megaman content is... impressive
Actually tos port for pc was done as a freebie for tales of zesty as part of the many preorder bonuses they offered for that specific version for it hitting the bonus stretch goals for preorders along with the cameo costumes, attachments, god eater dlc and something else. That actually got them a lot of good will and was the reason I and many others picked that version up on top of it being discounted to like 44$ or something just for preordering. Its a shame that both releases were a total shit show.What's frustrating is that I get why the original remaster was locked to 30 FPS. It was a PS3 exclusive so using the PS2 version makes sense especially when the PS2 version had the most content, and it was most likely one of those games where upping the FPS
But if there was ever a time to go back and do a proper HD port of the Gamecube version and add the PS2 extras, it'd be now, with the game arriving to all current platforms (besides PC) with no access to the earlier versions which have a large audience completely new to the entry, and including another Nintendo platform to boot.
Tales of Vesperia got the appropriate treatment, why not Symphonia?
The port being a pre-order bonus for another game is just indicative of them not having much faith in it selling well separately to begin with. It has since been sold for only $20 as a standalone product.
Yeah it opens up once you get the boat/airship slightly later in the game as per usual rpg rules. After the end of part 1 once you get back to the port via dangrest - heliord to torim from what I recall. From there you can take the boat and anchor it anywhere there's a beach and no shallow water/reefs, ice or such. The game doesn't truly open up till later in part 2 though once you get the airship upgrades so you can land anywhere instead of only just on plains much like tales of abyss airship which also had that issue.
I don't know so much about how well they'd thought it would do by itself but the price point of 20 makes sense from the standpoint that it was originally released with another game for 40 on ps3 in the bundle. As far as it being a preorder incentive I have to disagree with that being indication of lack of faith and more them getting more sales for zesty on pc as well as good will/word of mouth as how often to games include previous entries in a series for free just for preordering them? The only examples I can think of are mary skelter 2 I think including 1, and digimon hackers memory including cyber sleuth.
First-party sales are rare, we pretty much get a selection of titles discounted 30% every few months. From the usual schedule I believe Black Friday-ish is the next one, then around the Game Awards, then the holidays, start of the year, and then after that around E3 time? and small ones sprinkled here and there.
Animal Crossing is pretty rare to go on sale, it has been 39.99 before for the digital but not direct from Nintendo.
Black Friday is your best bet. As others mentioned, 30% is the average but last year a bunch of physical/digital games were marked down to $27 each on GameStop. Keep an eye out when big sales go live and sometimes you can snag a BIG discount
GameStop usually has a B2G1 free on used games around the holidays. If you can get the Mario/Zelda games for $30-$40, you’re doing pretty good. I wouldn’t be surprised if we finally see the Nintendo Selects line next year. Probably most of the Wii U ports would get there first.
Great post. I want to give Dekudeals.com another recommendation. I actually now use it to track PS4/5 and Xbox sales too. I keep track of my Switch game collection on the website as well. It has a great user interface and you can even add the PRO Controller to your watchlist. Every switch owner should be using Dekudeals.
recommending you wait for a target video game deal and see what you can get it for. got trails of zero for $35 that way.
