Anybody here interested in Triangle Strategy? Played the demo? Thoughts? Curious to know what other people think about it. I've yet to find an SRPG that I really enjoy, but for some reason I keep wanting to find one that I will like... I haven't tried the demo yet, but I've been toying with the idea trying it out. Even if the demo blows me away, I'm certainly not buying an SRPG for full price on release, but I might Wishlist it and watch out for a good sale later on. If it doesn't sell well then it won't be long before a good deal will be available.

It’s $80 for a year, not a month

Yeah, it's a bummer that they're not adding more perks. Looking at the Nintendo website, you can still buy the regular Switch Online family package for $35 / year. Switch Online + Expansion Pack is 'Coming Soon'... so I guess now's the time for people to lock in another year of the old plan before the changes take effect..?

Still only works out to like $3 / month per person if you and yer partner are splitting the cost of one year of the family plan. N64 and Genesis games aren't the greatest selling point to justify the price increase--it would be nice if they were adding more to make the higher price more palatable--but I'm still not convinced that it's an unreasonable price point, all things considered.

I like lower prices too of course, but I think they were leaving money on the table at $20 / year. It was bound to go up eventually. I get why some folks will be unhappy to see a big increase all at once, but it still only works out to a little over $4 / month at the new price for an individual. I don't think Nintendo is gouging people

$50 / year ain't that bad...

I’m not really waiting for anything. Just plain happy with what I’ve got. I hope there are people out there that are hyped for the thing though. Maybe that new screen is really nice.

I’m happy with the Switch I’ve got

I like a couple of Zelda games quite a bit. Even though it's not my favourite series or anything, I don't strongly dislike it either. Zelda game announcements just don't get me excited, it's more of a and then I move along to the next headline.

I was curious about Project Triangle Strategy for a hot minute but then I realized strategy == SRPG ( duh ) and immediately got turned off. I've tried several times to get into SRPGs but have never enjoyed one enough to actually finish the game. I love Mario Golf and Mario Tennis games, so I'd totally play Mario Golf Super Rush... but -- as much as I like these games -- I'm not willing to pay 79.99 plus tax of my hard-earned Canadian funbucks for Mario Golf or Tennis. I still haven't found a good enough deal on Mario Tennis Aces and that's been out nearly 3 years now... Knockout City sounds pretty darn fun. Doubt I'll ever get it, but I think a younger version of me would have played this a ton. Might be interested in Ninja Gaiden someday for the right price. When I saw the headline I had assumed it was a collection of the NES classics, which I like but I can't beat without save states I forgot that they made more Ninja Gaiden games later on. Were those games any good..? Zero interest in anything Zelda from me

We certainly didn't plan it that way! But we're actually scaling back xmas and bday stuff this year anyway. Neither of my kids plays much with toys, so lots of gifts are just left to collect dust after they're opened. The big one likes to draw, read, and sometimes play video games. When she has free time, all she wants to do is draw or write stories on her Chromebook. The little one loves books too. It's basically books and new clothes this year, and maybe a Switch game. Seems kinda lame to me, but they're not going to mind.

I'm still on the fence about buying one. Between Nov. 26 and Christmas we've got a wedding anniversary, both of my kids' birthdays, and then of course Christmas. It's a really hard time of year for my wallet. Probably can't justify $80 after tax on this thing, tempting as it is.

Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros. 69.99 CAD for a nifty looking little handheld with SMB, SMB 2, and a Game & Watch game. I don't think it's worth the $$$ but I can't help buy want to get one

...

It was a pretty good run for the 3DS, and it ended up sticking around a bit longer than most would have thought after the Switch was released.

Wait for some people to beat it and then read a plot summary / FAQ That's why I started borrowing games from our local library instead of buying them.

Super Mario 3D All-Stars: Optimized versions of 3D Mario games Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine and Super Mario Galaxy are coming to Nintendo Switch in one package.

I might check that out (someday (when it goes on sale (could be a long time because Nintendo games take forever to get cheap)))

A demo went up on the eShop today for Bravely Default II https://www.nintendo.com/en_CA/games/detail/bravely-default-ii-demo-switch/

The primary/secondary business does sound a bit annoying...

I'm trying very hard to not spend money needlessly right now, so I think my willpower will win out... but it's tempting!

I find myself wanting to buy a yellow one

Thoughts? How does it feel vs. the regular Switch? Lighter? More comfortable? Is the screen good? etc.

Anybody here get a Switch Lite?

After years of only having a 3DS and Vita, it has not been easy adjusting to Switch game prices. There are very few games that I'm willing to pay $80 for.
