    JB first to put up preorders for 3D All Stars, waiting to see what Amazon are gonna do https://www.jbhifi.com.au/products/nintendo-switch-super-mar…

    • jimbobaus on 04/09/2020 - 09:11

      EB Games have had it live since around 7am
      but they more expensive than JB

    Anyone find it weird that Galaxy 2 is seemingly receiving the "Chris Benoit" treatment in the presentation?

    • Jorgonaut on 04/09/2020 - 08:19

      It might be wishful thinking but part of me wonders if it'll be DLC later or even an individual remaster. It's odd it's not in this collection so trying to justify they left it out for a reason.

      The DLC idea doesn't really work with the limited run nature of the collection though. If you don't buy the collection and then it comes out as DLC do only people that have the collection get it? Or does the collection itself come out of retirement from sale alongside the DLC?

      • Faro on 04/09/2020 - 08:22

        I just honestly think they "did a Nintendo" and thought adding Galaxy 2 would have made the collection too valuable or something. They're still charging full price for these 3 games, so why would they charge the same price for 4?

        I just find it weird they left out Galaxy 2 from the retrospective at the end of the presentation

        • Jorgonaut on 04/09/2020 - 09:31

          Oh yeah I didn't notice it was missing from the medley at the end until reading your comment. That IS interesting.

      • OpayuOnam on 07/09/2020 - 00:06

        Do make matters what, galaxy 2 already exists in NVIDIA Tegra X1 chip in the form of Android port for the Chinese shelf tablet. Basically minimal effort

    Pre ordered game and watch and 3d all stars. Too hard to resist!

  • jimbobaus on 04/09/2020 - 09:11

    3D All stars will be limited run in Physical and only available as Digital until March 2021
    If you were thinking of pulling the trigger, i would do it sooner rather than later (unless you plan on going digital)

      If you bought the Switch Online game vouchers for New Horizons in March like me and haven't used the second voucher might as well wait until March to chose to use it on it or not.

        Thats a good idea :)

    • Donatello on 05/09/2020 - 14:30

      Serious. 3D will be limited run? Damn.

      I was hoping Big N would announce a Switch Pro console. :(

  • Jorgonaut on 04/09/2020 - 09:51

    JB doesn't allow click and collect on a pre-order so I have to a) pay shipping and b) wait for 2-9 business days post release day for it to be sent to me?

    • sss333 on 04/09/2020 - 09:54

      You might be able to pre-order instore.

      • Jorgonaut on 04/09/2020 - 09:56

        Yeah I've done that with them before in-store. I guess I'll have to drag myself in there to do so now.

          Just rang my local store and they won't pre-order over the phone and let me pay the deposit that way. In store it is by the sounds.

            @Jorgonaut: Pay the $10 to EB Games to reserve you click and collect copy.
            Go in to EB on launch day and get them to price match JB

              @jimbobaus: Or pay $5 for express delivery. Save $5 from eb games price and don't have to brave the outside world.

                @Quantumcat: Yeah who wants to go outside anyways :P

                I managed to get one from Amazon :) so i am happy

              @jimbobaus: Snagged the $60 copy from Amazon that was up briefly instead. So they lost out on my $$ altogether.

  • kazuyamishima on 04/09/2020 - 15:07

    Damn, full price for three games with only really really minor upgrades. I've seen companies like Activision doing tony hawk pro skater 1 + 2 for 2/3 of the price and the games are full remakes.

    But yeah, Nintendo knows that nostalgia will sell and also trying to make them "limited", it's not unusual in them, they were fined before for fixing prices.

    Big W Game and Watch pre-order, thanks to annarchon
