Guys, you really need to play this game.

Will there be a sale in the US? I'm interested in this game and a sale would get me to bite the bullet.

Bought it at launch, but never found time to play it. I don't mind paying full price for it because I love what I've seen of the game and the team's heart.


Very nice to see a big update for the game.

Soon, I think.

I read that a 20% sale is coming to North America soon. Not sure how accurate that is though.


Hmm... Normally $25 in Canada, and still $20 when on sale.  I'll pass.  Some people get all in a tizzy when I say it, but $20 for a digital game is rarely worth it in my opinion.  Even with the extra content they are offering (which sounds great) and knowing this is a cool game from a developer I want to support, that's more than I'm going to pay.

I hope you at least understand why some people are get in a tizzy when you say "I want to support this developer because they made a cool game" and "I refuse to pay full price, or even 20% off full price" back-to-back in the same sentence. Specially when the devs in question are indie and depend much more on the people actually supporting them by buying their product.

Am I reading this correctly that they are going to change the name of the game?  If so, that is pretty hilarious (and also a pretty good idea).

In this case, "title" is being used as a synonym of "game".

I can understand why people get into a tizzy.
I don't really care though because that's the reality of the situation (for me).


Also, you conveniently left out a key piece of information: it's not the developer, or the quality of the game, or an insistence on bigger discounts... it's that (for me) digital content on a Nintendo console simply isn't worth the price they asking regardless of the quality.


The dev team are great. They make interesting and fun games. I do want to support them, but have a limited budget and a myriad of options competing for that money. Digital content in a highly restrictive ecosystem like Nintendo offers is a hard sell, especially when using premium pricing.


If your budget is bigger, if you don't care about actual ownership or have concerns about accessing your content moving forward, good for you.
