I’m considering you might be, attempting to twist the word “service” when it’s clear as day that the paid online service is offering servers to play on, which will easily remedy all the issues Smash players have had.

Eh, people have been demanding an online service from Nintendo for years, they finally put it out, make it then cheapest that any service has ever been, and people complain about it more.

Q: What happens to the games and add-ons I download for free through a PS Plus membership if I decide to not renew my membership?

Funny, because half my games on my PS4 shut me out 30 minutes after going offline.

It actually does, the liscence won’t renew and you won’t be able to access the games. In fact for newer games, most have 24/7 check licences... so might wanna double check on that. Don’t believe me, play a Square-Enix game on the PS4 and go offline.

Aww, that’s so sweet. <3
But yeah, just pointing out that there are people like me who have literally no interest in Splatoon 2 who are getting this. XD
My BotW save matters more. <_<

Erm... both Sony and Microsoft literally have similar policies in place for their free games.

Hi, I’m not a part of your imagination then. :)

True, but the same goes for those who have returned to the spotlight. Much like American stars it really goes both ways and really just depends on the work they produce if they ever want to come back. Though personally I would not blame her for never coming back. She’s probably rich beyond wildest dreams now and the…

Late in response, but your argument is shit. Games aren’t selling like crap on the 3DS, it’s actually the exact opposite scenario. If the 3DS is “only” putting out 3.25 million game units in sales one month while the Switch is pumping out 17.5, the question should be HOW MANY COPIES of each game is getting sold.

Therein…

I don’t want to seem crude, but you don’t seem to be listening to me about context. 16m in software seems small right up until you realize Nintendo is:

I feel I should point out that the statistics for sales this year (which following Nintendo’s fiscal, is about 5 months old now) doesn’t mean every sequential year every single user has only been buying one game. Some have been buying one, some have been buying 20. Some have been buying all of their games used. Some…

That’s great. You’ve accounted for 0.0000000375% of the install base. And if you wanted to play the game, that means you have three different ones that you could take out and play without any need to purchasing a new one.

This is a late addition to me response, but looking at the numbers, that idea that the older platforms only sell a fraction doesn’t work with Atlus games. Look at Persona 5. Of the reported 2.2 million in sales, only 1.4 million of that is accounted for on the PS4. That means nearly a million copies were sold on the…

So three games a month on the Switch are selling millions of copies, but because millions of copies between 100-120 games a month are selling a higher number, we conclude that 3DS software isn’t selling well?

I think it only fair to comment to myself here. People are trying to convince me that the Switch has a stronger selling factor and that stacks the cards in favor of them making the game for the Switch instead. Here’s the problem: They already decided on the 3DS. So clearly telling me I’m wrong about what they decided…

You do realize you’re basing a LOT of your argument on the idea that in a failing economy, everyone is magically bouncing over to a new system AND that no one retains their old hardware. In the US. Which has a more cut throat and busy used gaming market than the Japanese could ever even beg to dream of.

And 6 million times 60 dollars is still 360,000,000 dollars. Same install base or not.

Sorry, but I’m not making anything up here. If you feel the need to attack me then I have no other choice than to assume you’ve run out of a decent point to give in opposition to what I said.

To be clear cut, I’m a developer who has a Switch game coming out soon. The only reason we didn’t make a 3DS version was the platform was incompatible with our engine. We would have loved to sell on a platform with such a massive install base. Atlus has historically made games for older platforms due to (and this is…
