Is it ironic that the game I was looking forward to playing the most after all these years on the Switch was Metroid Prime.... and it was priced $39.99 and I was overjoyed with it and can care less about anything else. 😂

Games I bought from Nintendo I'm happy with... Breath of the Wild Super Mario 3D World Super Mario Odyssey Link's Awakening Metroid Dread Metroid Prime Remastered Zelda Tears of the kingdom Pikmin 4 Super Mario Wonder Super Mario RPG Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door And I'll probably buy Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom and Metroid Prime 4 Beyond

Switch force, nah, more like police force, trying to police what people spend their money on, and also flip flopping on telling people what to enjoyy and support once again so his narrative can reinforce his inflammatory title. What a jooookkkeeeee

Answer: They realized they underpriced Metroid Prime Remastered and went back to putting their games they make at their normal $59.99 price.

Zach spitting the honest truth? The only thing that got spat was my drink when I heard him claim that haha

Why does the Big N price these refreshed tiles at full price these days? Its very simple... they can and it will sell well.

Alot of bootlickers in this community

So what

I know Paper Mario color splash is underrated, I still wanted to on switch. That so cool to see..

Paper Mario 1000 year door, is Okay i mean is a great game, but it’s boring. I like something different in mind..

I’m not interested in LM2 but will probably get DKHD because of game vouchers so it will be $50 for me, plus I love that game

I won't be buying these games at those prices. I can wait till they are discounted as I have these games already so don't really need to waste my money. If their $60 US, they'll be over $80 AUS :-(

STOP GIVING THIS UA-cam VIEWS!!

i don't really mind paying 60 dollars for Luigi's mansion 2 hd. I already pre-ordered the game and will get it tomorrow when it comes out. I may get donkey Kong country returns hd sometime but it will be a while till I get any more games. i need to save money for a ticket to mufasa the lion king and I already have Sonic x shadow generations preordered as well. anyways I cant wait to play Luigi's mansion 2 hd.

I’m getting Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD, mostly because I haven’t played it before and I would like to play it legally. It was Luigi’s Mansion 3 that finally got me to come into the story and now I want to experience the rest. In order to do that, I’d either need to rebuy a 3DS model of some kind or I’d need to get the Switch version. Or I need to hope that Switch 2 and NSO is coming with 3DS and GameCube emulation to experience the first two games legally. The Donkey Kong Country game though. Yeah, if I get it, it’ll be when there’s a sale.

Your reasoning as to why no one is talking about those games is flawed. They're not talking about it due to these people having already played Luigi's Mansion 2 and Donkey Kong Country Returns and its 3DS port. And since there's nothing new added of course they're skipping it since again it's something they already played so there's no point in buying it when they could boot up their Wii or 3DS to play those games. Essentially what I'm trying to say is that the target audience for Luigi's Mansion 2 HD and Donkey Kong Country Returns HD isn't you. The target audience is people who never played those games. You have to remember that Luigi Mansion 2, Donkey Kong Country Returns as well as the 3DS port of Donkey Kong Country Returns were released almost a decade ago on Consoles that are no longer being supported. With that time there will be a good chunk of people who've never played these games so Nintendo is capitalizing on that fact with these remasters. Would it be nice if they did add new content? Of course but they didn't and that was not a big deal for me since I already played these games so I have no need to buy them again.

For a port of a port? 60 bucks? No thanks, I will pass. Should’ve been a new game or a DK64 remake. The price the wait till January 2025 would’ve made sense, and been a more adequate way of celebrating 30 years of DK. the way I see it, it’s strange this is the game they want to use to generate hype for the park, you’d figure they’d want to reach the max amount of people as possible, so why put up a deterrent like charging 60 bucks for a port that a good chunk of your fan base has already played. The other way I see it that the labor of making this port happen is not even on Retro, but it’s on Forever Entertainment, and they’re very likely working with the code from the 3DS version. I don’t see how uprezzing the graphics, rebasing the controls, and polishing performance justifies that price or the wait if they are not adding new content. we have been starving for 10 years for something new and exciting for DK. Nintendo I’m sure has their ear to internet discourse and they know we want that for DK as well, but this is how we get repaid for being fans? In my eyes egregious and shameless. No one should be justifying paying 60 bucks when history alone shows it’s been sold for HALF of that cost for the same amount of content. Even if it is a new game for you, why pay 60 when the only thing that’s different between the 3DS version and this is simply uprezzed graphics and polished performance? is it really that worth it? 40 bucks maybe, but double the price? nope, I’ll pass. Give me a better reason to pay that price for DK than this Nintendo.

Yea $40 all day for Dk returns Luigi 2

And technically, when Donkey was ported to the 3DS, not only did it get extra levels, it also got a type of graphical upgrade/overhaul. They had to work the graphics to be 3D capable. Not sure what the cost on that is; but, STILL, it did have to cost extra. And the game went DOWN in price. Not all games could go 3D. None of the DS games could, because the graphics and chip were not designed for it and there actually were 3DS launched games that were not 3D capable. It's all a numbers game. More people bought a Switch than a 3DS and many players were not alive or old enough to have played it on the Wii. So, for these players it is their first time buying it and that is where the rub lies. Those people are going to pay it and it will be a "NEW" game to them; so, they will buy it and not the feel the same sting as those of us that have already bought a game like Donkey Kong twice.

I actually agree with you on this one

I am extremely excited to play Metroid Prime 4 and Echoes of Wisdom!

Be my guest skip it but you can't tell other people what to do with their money. If people are ok with the prices that's fine it's their money to do with. Also I have said before I have never paid full price for a game if you shop around you can always find it for less.

LMFAO YOU SOUND LIKE A MORON. YOU CALLED THE LAST DIRECT GREAT YET NOW YOU ARE SAYING NOT TO BUYY HALF THE GAMES ON IT!!! 😂😂😂😂 BRO STOP

You didn't say ANYTHING about BDSP...

Very much agree that DK should be cheaper. Honestly, $40 feels like the appropriate price for that type of re-release, especially compared to their lineup this year along with previous well-priced remasters, ports and smaller titles they've done like Metroid Prime Remastered, Pikmin 1+2, or Nintendo World Championship.

DONT TELL ME WHAT TO DO IM BUYING THESE ANYWAYS!! YOU NOT MY DAD I WILL GET IT!!

Well just for telling me not to buy any buy these games guess what not only Ill buy these Switch games but Ill get each of Metroid Prime, Donkey Kong Country Returns and Luigi’s Mansion 2 TWICE to give them away. Nuff said!

Spot on feelings and video. I agree 100% with you.

This is silly. You said it yourself. Nintendo DOES NOT have confidence in Metroid (understandably, as it doesn’t sell as well as it should based on the quality). As such, they made the rare decision to offer Prime at a value price. They don’t like to do that, but they had just watched Dread struggle to sell 3 million units. Other companies, trying to make their money back in the short term, have damaged themselves in the long term, by training their customers to just wait 4-6 months for a sale. Nintendo doesn’t put things on sale because they do poorly. They put them on sale when they meet and exceed expectations. And even then, they are modest 33% off sales, at best. They would rather an individual title fade into obscurity at $59.99 than teach consumers to wait a few months. Everybody praises Nintendo for defying industry norms, and ADDING employees and giving out raises, when everybody else is slashing their workforce, but then they complain about the aggressive defense of their IP that puts them in a position to do those things. The other issue, is people our age look at these and say, hey, that’s an OLD game…what gives? They act like we’re expected to rebuy these games. No, we aren’t. Not everything is about us. Every few years, there’s a whole batch of kids that are old enough to play these games which are NEW to them. It makes sense for Nintendo to devote some time and resources to bringing classic games up to the current platform. Could parents, spend $200 for a used 3DS for their kid? Some of them, sure. But it’s a hell of a lot easier to just have them on Switch. And Nintendo is going to maximize their profits by charging as much as they can get away with charging (see, Tears of the Kingdom). Personally, I was on the fence about this, as I do, in fact, own it on my 3DS. But I pulled the trigger today. Why, I want something fun to play right now, I never finished the game, and frankly, the 3DS has never fit in my hands comfortably. I have a couple XL and an original version, but both models make my hands cramp. I’d rather just have the shiny new version. And that’s apparently worth $60 to me. Whether I’ll feel that way about DK Returns, I don’t know… We’ll cross that barrel of bananas when we come to it. The fact is, it’s about value. I’ve played Metroid Dread for over 300 hours. Which isn’t easier, since the game is only 5 hours long. I’ve got over 300 hours in to Breath of the Wild. Same for Tears. I have over 1300 hours into Animal crossing and recently returned to it. I decided to create a new character and add them to my island. Mostly because I’d run out of storage slots. Prior to that, I’d been logging in once a week or so to do light island maintenance and to remind my villagers I still exist. Anyway, my point is, Nintendo has provided me more entertainment per dollar spent than literally any other company. I suppose Lego and Disney would be 2nd and 3rd, respectively. But it’s not even close. So if Nintendo wants to charge a bit more than I think they should for a game, I’m still comfortable supporting it. If I don’t get hundreds of hours of fun out of this game, they’ll make it up on the next one.

I'd rather play indie games or demo games than these OVERLY PRICED games. Good luck with Nintendo NOT LISTENING to their customers. They just want your $$$ and not care about why things don't work.

Never played this game, but I've heard of it before.

Nintendo never puts there first party games on sale for a good discount every other game in the world drops in price some people just can’t afford to spend 2k to have a 20 game library is insane im not ok with full price games thats been out for 7-4 years or remakes lower the prices NINTENDO!

Seriously, watch some Lady Decade. WTF is up with the price of TYD‽

2:14 As a math teacher, I support your mathematical discourse.

They totally redid Metroid Prime and the was only 40. They would seem a good price point for a remaster

Not upset about the price. Never played the original DKCR, so to me, its a brand new game, and the price thus makes sense. Should I pay less now because of the low effort to port, when I didn't pay back then to compensate the high effort to make the game in the first place? Would be nice though, if Nintendo employed a loyalty program, where if you bought a game and it connects that purchase to your nintendo account, you get a huge discount on re-purchasing future re-releases / remasters of that game on newer systems.

Support physical games and media! ⚠️

I definitely agree. I wasn’t planning on getting Luigi’s mansion 2 or DK country returns anyways. But I definitely agree

I'm still buying both Luigi's Mansion 2 and Donkey Kong Country Returns HD. I never bought either of the originals.

those Woke-a-phobes just crave their precious routines to not be rocked any slightly. You know, say it with me: "Get Up, Go to Work, Come Home, Watch some TV, and Go to Bed!" Up, Work, Home, TV, Bed! Up, Work, Home, TV, Bed! Up, Work, Home, TV, Bed! They don't want that changed! Of course, as for the DKC Returns Price Jumping, I blame inflation.

I agree with you these titles shouldn’t be full price but sadly they can get away with it so...I already have these games on my 3DS so am not really excited for these so will skip.

Well I’m buying Donkey Kong Country Returns and Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD, you may have a problem with Nintendo pricing these games but what choice? When the original games are getting expensive more than the Switch versions. With that said i agree with you on the price on Donkey Kong Country Returns which should be $40.

Yeah and the thing is I'm only thinking about buying Mario and Luigi unless TPC announced a New Pokémon game for this year if not then it's I'm perfectly OK with just Mario and Luigi

I have pre-ordered Luigi's Mansion 2 and will also be buying Donkey Kong when it comes out. If you already own these games and can play them on other systems then good for you but for many of us these are new games. I feel like you're basing your opinion like we all have every system and these are old games for everyone.

hi SwitchForce

Why? YOU HAVE NO SOUL AND YOU ARE A FAKE NEWS REPORTER WHO DESERVES TO IMPEACHED BY JOE BIDEN!!!!!! GET OUT NOW!!!!!!

oooof!

Love this video! Eagerly awaiting your next insights! -- "Life is a canvas; make it a masterpiece.."

What's the point in having a new Nintendo switch come out when they don't even give us good games on the Nintendo switch The stores literally riddled with a bunch of kiddy games that are not good and are cheap and boring and look stupid and horrible
