It's possible that Nintendo is going to give World the "free update" treatment as the producer implies that 200cc could return in an update.
I don't understand this complaint at all. I got my Switch 2 on Friday and have also unlocked all the core stuff in Mario Kart World... and plan on playing this game a ton for months. What the hell is this complaint? Do you people not replay games? Especially racing games that are by design meant to be played a bunch after you've "beaten" them.
Good for you. However.....
Not everybody likes racing games. I get why they made MK World the launch title - MK8 Deluxe was the highest selling Switch game by far - but it was the wrong move.
I mean, there were 2.2m lottery applications in Japan alone. If we assume there's similar demand in each region, then I can definitely see 3m sales being very believable (keeping in mind that Europe and the US both individually have 3x the population of Japan).
I don't really play games online much, and Mario kart world just doesn't have enough content to me. Mario kart 8 deluxe has all the dlc from the Wii u version in it by default, so there's a much wider variety of courses to race on compared to world. I'm not even saying world is a bad game, it's very fun, it just doesn't have a lot going on outside of the open world.
They’ve done it with every other EAD title, and people eat that shit up every time.
If you don't like racing games then why would you be an early adopter of Switch 2 when the big launch title is a racing game?
Nintendo's games are great. Look at all the angry people in this very thread that have nothing good to say and yet still move heaven and earth for the chance to steal a Nintendo game.
The gamestop where I got mine sold out completely the first night but I went to one of my local walmarts the next day at like noon to get a case and they had 10 consoles in stock sitting on the shelf so I think it just depends on what specific stores people are buying them from the most
No unless either the plot or gameplay give me a reason to, and usually after some time to not burn out.
With some of the news coming out there is some optimism for the sales stalling. Once you went over the diehard Nintendo fans and scalpers you need to keep sales of both consoles and games to make profit
bro, nintendo has been turning into Apple since 2001. Since the Gamecube-era they've relied heavily on selling you the idea of the "Nintendo lifestyle"
+ due to the newer joycons being attached magnetically, there won't be an option for longer-lasting hall-effect sticks. Better to stock up some original spares now as intended.
Not even Apple places their tech demos behind a paywall. Nintendo is outdoing them.
That's to demonstrate how less special the Switch hardware is for the price compared to other handhelds of the same generation.
Ohhh that's why you steal.
I should have, but I paid the Nintendo tax already.Ohhh that's why you steal.
The Mario Kart game have become a paid live service game that Nintendo is gonna milk to its fullest (just look at MK8 ). What you have now is just the basic standard edition, but soon they will be dishing out improvements and DLC (tracks/characters). If you choose to keep up with the game you will be paying through the nose for that stuff over a 7 years period. Dont be shocked that Nintendo butt kissers are gonna praise the game as 10/10.
You could just not buy that shit. Depends on how bare bones the release is though, if they obviously held back content then that's fucked up.
