It has been mentioned above ... a European Physical release should be the minimum that is needed. As its download-only, I'll happily wait until it hits at least 50% on the eShop and then use my points to get it for nothing. Without sounding negative, with shoddy business practices like this, I would rather give them the least amount of cash as possible!
Curious to know why the file size is larger on Switch that on PlayStation ... and hard to justify the price when its currently 75% off on the PSN Store (although I fully appreciate it was released just yesterday!)
I don't sell mine on, but as I now have approximately 400 Switch carts and am moving homes in 6 months the thought of selling them has crossed my mind recently. Especially the ones that are still sealed/limited run versions etc.
not sure why people make so much fuss over this. Seems like people have been moaning for a new switch console for what must be 5years, probably says more about the consumer-attitude of "want want want" than anything else. 2024 seems like it has a decent software line-up planned. if nothing is announced I certainly won't be taking to social media to whinge like most do.
My copy of both this and DragonQuest Monsters were sent out last Tuesday still waiting … pity they perform so so poorly as I was really looking forward to replaying Asylum
WB Games, why am I not surprised. Surely it's not a "day one patch" if its actually half the game that needs to be downloaded. such a scummy practice that needs to be stopped
I love how "shocked" people seem to be over this version, its almost like they've all forgotten just how terrible MK11 was/is on Switch (and that includes the monster "update" because of the tiny cartridge they used).
as a series one bunch of sets, they aren't bad at all. people will always pick holes in whatever Lego do. Would be nice to have a blind-bag series to go along with them to boost the figure selection (ahem Pietro, Felicity, Alice, Snake and Rex).
licensing issues aside, I really think NetherRealm should do a 1v1 fighting game that was just horror characters. The ones we've had in the past have been great additions so just 20 or so would be an insane experience ... especially with stages taken straight from the films
@5th313ment hey, so I just checked using the cart on my daughters switch and it’s version 1.0.0. So far no day one patch but it’s ver.1.53.dd6d. A really weird ‘quirk’ I found last night are contract negotiations in career mode. Rather than the fluid conversations used in the PS5 version of FIFA23, the Switch gets these really weird static screens that just don’t “fit” for example I was negotiating contract length and the picture on the screen was a restaurant tray full of desserts 😂
so the UT transfer market had a whopping 47 items listed earlier ... I'm hoping that picks up. the whole game does still feel like it needs a day one patch as it doesn't have up-to-date team rosters yet and there are some real noticeable stutters and pauses both in game and when transiting through menus. all that was after a 21.1gb install whilst using the cartridge this afternoon (as my copy arrived a bit early).
LimitedRunGames have said that there will be a window where you can order both games together to save on postage ... super handy for us here in England to save a few £££'s
Gosh, do people really get that upset about fps? Honestly and I mean this with no disrespect to anyone: if it just has to be at 60 then buy it on another system. Personally I think these games will suit the small OLED screen perfectly and I’ll happily play at 30fps.
The Switch version doesn't look bad at all, but I got burned with MK11 on Switch at launch so will wait for a sale ... but that PS5 version looks beautiful!
"Mortal Kombat 1 feels like a return to form for the series“ … that makes zero sense given how well the last couple have reviewed and how insanely well they have sold.
So so good, to the point I have had the WiiU, PS Vita and Switch versions. the music levels are just brilliant. plus the leaderboards always kept it interesting with my friends.
The people moaning and saying they won’t buy will be the same people who moaned and said they wouldn’t buy the latest Pokémon game … and we all know how that ended up
