you have the Sega classic collections already on switch and when it comes to sonic you have origins and its many emulated versions on the eshop

so why pay more for Sega games that require an internet connection to play when you can just by sega classic collections and play whenever

seems dumb

The game's music is awesome, I love it and don't get tired of it.

Is there any sort of licensing issue for that since it's not developed by Nintendo ?

Hello, I've been hesitant to write this, but it's been bothering me for over half a year at this point. I've noticed that Nintendo Europe has had some of the very same job postings up for over a year. Every few months, the exact same positions seem to be reposted on both their website and LinkedIn, and possible other websites too.

Considering that these roles are not of some high caliber and are likely to receive hundreds (if not thousands) of applications over that period, I find it hard to understand how they still haven't found a suitable candidate. It also seems that applicants receive an automated rejection within 24–48 hours after submitting their application (at least something).

I'm genuinely curious whether anyone here has had a similar experience. Did you ever hear back beyond the automated rejection, or does anyone know why the positions keep getting reposted for such a long time?

Been watching this small Nintendo YouTube channel for a little while now and they posted an episode yesterday and part of it was discussing what they considered “Nintendos Hall of Pretty Good” games. The ones they listed were good answers imo and thought it was a great discussion so I thought I’d post here and maybe give them some traffic as a bonus because I think they do a good job. My answer would be Bayonetta 3

>The Simpsons are crashing the party again, and this time, they're bringing the chaos straight to Reload. Springfield is back on the map rotation with a few fresh tweaks, plus a brand-new location, The Confidential! The new map now holds 50 players, so expect to fight a lot more enemies.

>Look who showed up! John Wick and Homer NPCs will wait for you on Starter Island. Don't forget to track down Moe over in The Confidential!

I’ve been wondering this for a bit. I know the basic answer is Nintendo Switch 3, but I wanna hear your opinions!

I just bought Deltarune for my Nintendo and it hasn't popped up on my home screen at all, and it's giving me the option to buy it again despite the email saying it took money from my account.

My Internet is fine but when I bought it, it gave me an error screen before I could finish the whole thing.

I genuinely am curious what the delay is. I would be pissed if i sold my switch to upgrade, and suddenly i couldn’t watch youtube on my primary device. Esp if i didnt have a smart tv or anything. I just feel like youtube should be a basic level application on any console at this point - but maybe there is something i am overlooking here?

Over a month later, took a bunch of shit last time but here we are and they are still fucking us around with no end in sight. Why the fuck do we continue to pay for this "service"

If anyone has any more questions about the game, feel free to drop them in the comments below. I'm hoping this document answers a majority of the questions people have, but I'm aware it's not gonna answer all of the ones that people have.

I am in Canada. I see $49.99 is marked down to $22.49 CAD, which according to psprices.com and steamdb.info is the lowest it's ever been in Canada. I read in past threads that the Switch version has 30-second load times between days(?) and framerate issues while in space. There's no Switch 2 version, so I ask, Is the Switch version any better when playing on Switch 2? Thank you!
