@ihaveallthecoins I almost ordered a superstation one to save money on these roms. But I’d be spending close to 30 games worth of ACA. And then I’d have to go through the hassle of installing this stuff which is easier said than done. I do think the pricing needs to be adjusted. But I don’t know what is a fair price. It’s the outfoxes and games like that which make me look to superstation one.
Also if capcom is willing to sell their arcade classics at 1.50 a pop how can it not be profitable for both companies to let hamster release them individually.
@mjparker77 capcom is just as strange to be honest. They charge 2.50-2.99 per game for their own arcade collection but won’t license out to hamster which sells games at 9.99 in Canada. Surely there has to be more than me who refuses to buy these games on multiple emulator platforms.
@Razieluigi I prefer hamsters simplicity in releasing games individually versus as part of a collection. But capcom has been doing good if you’re into that while sega has randomly screeched to a halt. I do think if sega is selling their games individually at about 2.50 a pop on their collections then they must be able to make money letting hamster publish them individually as well.
What I don’t like is you need to use the analogue stick to select between the novice, expert, time trial and it’s very finicky. I wish I could use the d pad to make these selections.
@BionicDodo its point is to make as much money on double dippers. I’ll be a victim to this as I can’t wait. But I’ve been burned before. Pole position came out one week and two weeks later pole position 2 came out. Woops.
@snk2d4life that’s not true. I had a Nintendo system at launch since the snes. My parents were the ones that got me an nes before I understood what video games were. Despite having four switches. I did not pre order and I will not line up. We aren’t a monolith.
@Fighting_Game_Loser yes I don’t know how people thought this game was going to have the same prices as last weeks over priced shooter. Hey maybe we’re both wrong and it’s simply a week of “inflation.”
So the game pad wasn’t as essential as Nintendo fans made it out to be. A horn in Mario kart 8. How was Mario kart 8 deluxe everr going to compete? A map in Zelda. All Zelda’s moving foreword were doomed. I never thought it was the name, but the price which killed the Wii u. A $100 off and I’m sure they could have managed to sell systems. Instead to make affordable space adventures work it had to include one expensive accessory. Should have been titled expensive space adventures.
As a Canadian I’m happy I’m represented. Even if I don’t wear much plaid, can’t grow a beard, don’t own overalls and am not a lumberjack. Are there lots of lumberjacks in Saskatchewan? I doubt it but it’s a video game.
Plans change. Nate said Nintendo is petty so they won’t release it because he and others leaked it. Sounds credible. Love the YouTube influencer world. Changing billion dollar companies plans.

Re: You Can Use Your Steam Deck, Smartphone Or Nintendo Switch As A Wii U GamePad Replacement
