10 dollars for neo geo roms

>10 dollars for neo geo roms

Defend this. I own a switch. I've made more why haven't you bought Nintendo threads than I can count.

But this is insane.

>I can count.
Well you obviously can't since they are actually $8 each

>i have to PAY? REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE fuck Nintendo even though they don't own the rights to these games!

These prices would be fine if you were guaranteed to have them on all future Nintendo devices without having to pay Nintendo a fee to access them again.

I'm more interested in a defense as to why the Switch's eshop looks like hot garbage

I was playing World Heroes Perfect on my PS2.

That's a good game, I wish more people would try it.

Yeah I can't believe these are 12 dollars. Who would even pay 14 dollars for this game? Once they reduce the price from 20 dollars maybe it'll be worth it

I'm waiting on the Switch to be hacked so I can pirate the library. Should take about two months or so.

eshop gameplay > graphics you pleb

>ops face when he made the thread

I won't hack mine unless they also mask it enough to go online with.

I bought this shit to play Splatoon 2 at some point.

We'll never get neo turf masters. Thankfully I have it on my phone.

I don't know about XBones but PS4 store is shit too. The original PS3 store was great. Just a page with links to new, deals, etc. Now it's a fuck train wreck designed solely for advertisements and shit. Want to search for something? Fuck you flip through the fucking alphabet instead of just typing it out.

This doesn't give Nintendo a pass or anything but I hate the online store fronts of both of these companies.

Yeah, taxes aren't a thing

It's okay when nintendo does it

>he lives in a country that have taxes on digital purchases

>being so cucked you have to pay taxes on digital goods
Americans everyone

This. The biggest complaint is how Nintendo convinces consumers to rebuy the same rom multiple times.

How many times have you people bought SMB3? Be honest, I know it's been at least 3-4 times.

They're coming to PSN.

Not in my country
Americans everyone

Because it's probably the price that was decided on after months of focus testing determined that normies are willing to pay that price.

Honestly there are a handful of games I'd pay their crazy rom prices for. Mother 3 being one of them.

Remember kids, it's never about something being a fair price. It's about something being the most they can get out of you. This is the same with all of the companies.

That says 8 dollars you blind troglodyte.

But yes, it's fucking bonkers.

Nobody is forcing you to buy it, fag

>SMB3

BING BING BING WAHOO!!!
YAHOO!!
BING BING BING!!
1UP!!!
BING BING BING!!
OHHHH MAMA MIA!!!
ITSAMEEE, MAAARIOOO!!!

You don't have taxes on anything because you live in a mud hutt with no roads or government.

Taxes are needed.

I was born in Hong Kong, I just had to move here when I was 6. Do you think it was my decision? Faggot?

It sucks but our low cost of living makes up for it.
>move out at 20
>monthly rent only $370 for a two bedroom in a decent neighborhood
>split with good friend which allowed us to save a good chunk of our $2400 monthly checks on other things
Houston is the greatest.

I literally don't care for Splatoon. I also believe it'll be like the 3DS since the whole reason why it was already hacked was due to the infrastructure being identical

But Metal Slug 3 is worth is user

It actually says $7.99

After taxes it will be right at $10. I don't know the exact number because I'm not paying $8.50-$10.00 for neo geo trash

Falseflagking.jpg

explain to me why you have such a retarded system in which the tax isn't already included in the price.

Once back in the NES days, then again for GBA. I haven't bought it again since, because I still have a GBA that can play it. It would be nice to buy it on the eShop and have access to it on all future Nintendo systems, but they're never going to do that. So until they do such a thing, I'll just pirate it on pc if the GBA SP ever dies.

I honestly think their VC sales would increase if they guaranteed to people that what you buy is yours, tied to your account, forever, on any future device. I know I'd be a few key titles if this was the case. Obviously third party titles would be trickier to do such a thing, but all first party titles? Should not be an issue.

It could also give people incentive to buy them if they make sure that every new device has access to your personal catalog of purchased VC titles, even if they aren't up on the eshop to buy for that system at the time of release.

>Taxes

I keep forgetting that America tricks their consumers, sorry.

Incorrect, user. SMB3 was on the NES, which had none of the following.

WAHOO!!
YAHOO!!
OHHHH MAMA MIA!!!
ITSAMEE, MAAARIOOO!!!

The other sounds were there, but NES was not capable of voice. It was not until the N64 that we got those sound effects.

Thank you for your time.

>370 a month for a two bedroom

The bare minimum for 2 bedroom here in New England is 1300 if you dont want to live in a heroin needle dump.

>I literally don't care for Splatoon.

But then the Switch is a piece of shit.

>fell for the $300 nintendo tablet meme
>instead of just buying an nvidia shield and playing all these games for free in 4k

So move back, it's not that hard

GHRSTBURSTRZ

>mfw I purchase all my digital games from US PSN and Nintendo Stores and don't pay taxes.

By the time it blows open I'll be expecting more news on some of titles

1, there's no taxes for digital content
2, $7.99 plus govt tip would still come to $8.67

stop failing.

I know you're shitposting but do you have Shield? I've been thinking of getting one

>is a piece of shit
Yes it is.

>implying I speak Cantonese

Actually there aren't sales tax in Texas. Europoors have VAT so they don't know the difference.

nintendo downloaded them from the internet too im sure. just wait and see what they charge you for the gamecube ISOs they downloaded off the internet that theyll try to make you rebuy with every new console

There aren't any achievements either. At least the Bone and PSQuad have new things to earn and show off.

No, I don't. I found out I could use the shield's gamestream on my phone so I bought one of those controller attachments and I just stream all my pc games to my phone now. I've been playing metal gear rising on the bus to work.

baby, I know. your homes are also crazy expensive. half a million for a single story home? the place I grew up in looks like a mansion compared to some of the houses located in boston, and my family only paid $170,000 for it.

>Achievements
>Good
Pick one.

Doesn't the new system make it so that any purchase is tied to your account?

I'm pretty Nintendo already introduced an account system for the Wii U and 3DS.

I would hope so, but that doesn't tie these VC titles to you forever. Like if you buy SMB on the Switch, you won't have it on whatever next device they come out with too.

Also the Switch requires like 3 different fucking log in information. NNID, Switch user ID, Nintendo online site id, probably another I'm forgetting. Shit is retarded.

>1, there's no taxes for digital content
This isn't even an opinion, you're just stating wrong facts. Most countries with a sales tax have one on digital goods aswell.

did know the nivida shield could play nintendo games.

You could just not buy them.

>achievements
>bad
Explain.

Not my problem your learned American English

I think you mean nvidia GAME faggot, the switch doesn't have plural.
Also if I really wanted to go the extra mile I'd hook my wiiu emulator up to steam and lock and load it for nvidia gamestream through Moonlight on my phone so I could play BOTW on my phone or any android smart device, but I just am not that invested in making that piece of shit game slightly more portable.

You forgot to mention that Nintendo wants to add online to some of these

Not for Steam, nor PSN.

>1, there's no taxes for digital content
That depends on what country you live in. The US, EU, and UK have taxes for digital contents. Countries with VAT think they're not paying taxes when they are because it's priced in.

>tripfag
Another one to filter, thanks

Waku Waku 7


You really should get that. It's great.

Taxes are included in the price. Unless you live in random place where they add taxes after hand, but that would be just weird and confusing.

nobody ir forcing you to buy

(you) show me how well you can play BOTW.

How the fuck are you paying 25% in taxes, on a digital product to boot?!

This thread is retarded. Do you know how much those neo geo carts or PBC's would cost? I bought the Metal Slug Collection on PS2 for about the same as a single one of those roms.

Why I'm still at home in my mid 20s

How am I supposed to save any decent money when I have to spend 24k a year of my earnings just to have a place to live.

Of course, another American who can't handle the bantz

tell that to stralia

Worst internet and more expensive games. I feel sorry for Australia.

Don't feel sorry for them

this is a pretty weak bait.

Where do you live that there's a 25% tax?

Nintendo seriously needs to get religion on a Steam-like approach to the VC in terms of portability.

FFS I'd buy a Switch for the VC alone if it just allowed me to play what I already own.

I'd pay ten bucks for KoF'98 again if I had a Switch

and where the fuck do you live that has a 25% sales tax

You got that right.

>not UM
>just '98
>$10

Nigga please.

NIGGA THERE'S FUCKING CONTRA IN IT???

We are doing just fine, also we don't have a literal retard running our country.

>pixel art at 4k

It's Neo Geo trying to seize having games on near launch.

Houston's idea of a decent neighborhood is easy klan access and living under a freeway exit for extra shade from an unrelenting sun. Your city sucks and is boring.

hi I live in Seattle and pay $1700 for a one bedroom like a dumbass

~40 fps stable

>wtf I have to pay $8 for a full video game??
It's the App Store and Steam's fault that people like you exist.

More than OP looking like a faggot. Are any of the games worth getting if you suck at fighter or run and gun games?

what would you value these games at?

What's a fair price for a retro ROM?

I think its great, I am going to get a couple. Already got Metal Slug 3 going to get Waku Waku 7 (it is good?) and Neo Turf Masters

I haven't played any Neo Geo games. Any others I should get?

>Your city sucks and is boring.
I wouldn't say it sucks, but it's indeed very boring. And I'm sorry to hear about the $1700; that's some ultimate fuckery right there.

Would suggest asking for a work transfer to Ohio or something, but Seattle is easily one of my favorite places that I've visited.

That being said, why doesn't Nintendo just hand out free NES games or at least have them between $0.50 - $0.99? I don't think Nintendo is expecting to make millions from rereleasing games like Balloon Fight for the 5th time anyways.

By having dozens or hundreds of free or cheapish games right off the bat they can:
>give more reasons to potential customers to buy the Switch
>customers have games right off the bat
>promotes the Switch's concept of portable, quick and accessible multiplayer (Mario Bros., Balloon Fight, Ice Climber, etc.)

I don't dislike them per se, but they don't add anything either other than show off how much time you waste playing video games. It's not like it's an actual feature like online multiplayer.

>paying $8 for a rom of a game that's over 20 years old
user, please. pic related is one of the few things xbone did right right. if you're going to charge a fee for old as games, at least bundle them and make it a reasonable value.

>why doesn't a company work for free?
I don't know man, becoming a hobo and starving must be bad so they might not want that

Zero (0) dollars. Free. You put that same rom into a physical storage medium and BOOM it has value.

is that fucking waku waku 7
