Patron Feedback LIVE! - I record this podcast live on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s at twitch.tv/runjumpstomp Review Email - Runjumpstomp@gmail.com re: the NES and SNES Classics... after wasting several months of my life trying to score an NES Classic (and later an SNES Classic), I finally got fed up with Nintendo's incompetence and went ahead and built an emulation station using a Raspberry Pi. I now have a better experience, with more games, including non-Nintendo consoles, and wireless controllers. I can only devote so much time of the day stalking online sites (even using services like NowInStock which often didn't respond fast enough for the handful of minutes things become available), so if Nintendo isn't going to take these devices seriously enough to want my money, then lots of people like me are going to have moral shifts in order to obtain the same (or better) experience.
Re: Metroid poll... I actually jumped from the original NES right to the Wii (having switched to PC gaming in the interim) so I'd happily play whatever Metroid games for Switch get produced. Metroid is my second favorite franchise, after Zelda. Despite having a emulation box, the appeal of playing portably and in HD would be sufficient for me to buy remakes of games I already can emulate the originals of.
re: FIFA18 sales... not all Nintendo Switch owners are sports fans. Not all sports fans are FIFA/soccer fans. And not all Switch-owning soccer fans are fans of bloated, crippled games where the savefiles are almost the size of the entirety of Super Mario Odyssey, and you can't play online with your friends. Incompetence and laziness should not be rewarded, and if EA is going to use this as a metric for whether they bring additional games to the Switch, well that's their loss and meanwhile we've got plenty of other games to play. There are only so many hours in the day anyway.
