Switch eShop Updates

Post by Tanooki »

First one finally hit today and there's some nice stuff in there.

$10 for Blaster Master
$8 for 5 Neo Geo arcade titles

VOEZ and a little more included as well so all around a pretty good start.

What's in the Neo Geo pack? That's a good price.

Someone page me if they ever come out and talk about VC Wii/U purchases migrating over or not.

But I bought a Buffalo USB SNES controller so it's probably too late for them to get me back...

Actually, I think it's $8 each.

It's not a pack, can see how that could read badly. Neo Geo like SNES on older VC's cost $8/game. Given how they're quarter eaters it's a solid deal still.

Nam-1975, The King of Fighters ‘98, Waku Waku 7, Metal Slug 3, World Heroes Perfect and Shock Troopers.

Anyone played VOEZ and can say whether or not it's recommended? I'm interested, but $25 for a digital game is a bit steep without some good recommendations for me.

It's too much for my tastes, but so far appears to get an 85pt average on metacritic or in general with the reviews which is solid.

You could try it out for free on android before buying the additional tracks.

Noise enjoys Voez on Android.

The Neogeo games are a bit high for my tastes, mostly because I own them already either on cart or in other ports. Having those specific titles portable is not a huge deal for me. Though if I hand local friends who were into fighting games, Waku and KOF would be no brainers. Sadly we will never get ports of Thrash Rally or Overtop.

Picked up KoF'98 since I am required by law to own that title as many times as it is ported.

Also, I like the extra features in this one. Lots going on without cluttering the base game.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

Care to expand on that?
