Is Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers Worth $40 on Switch? | Soapbox

[@stllbreathnbut_y1844]

$20 MAX.

[@SwitchWatch]

StllBreathnBut_Y completely agree, still a great game but not for $40

[@spderman123]

StllBreathnBut_Y id pay 15 tops for it

[@Bajso84]

On sale now

[@AresGarcia-wg8on]

Lmao got it for 20 bucks today

[@icee113]

Capcom would've been better off leaving the "Way of the Hado" mode out and only charging $20 or so.

[@abc2390986]

Icee202 Productions it isn't fun anyway. IMO Capcom should have release the arcade archive version of SF2ST and sell it for 7.99$ just like the SNK fighting games on eshop.

[@j.dviant]

Christian Richards why not? fast rmx released on launch day and that was 20$ and it also has online.

[@xxkarlosxxxxxx7233]

Christian Richards way of the hado isn't online... that's only for training ... using control gestures

[@Angultra]

I paid $2 for SSF II HD on my PS3, so not worth $40 for almost the same game on Switch.

[@abc2390986]

Christian Richards Mark of the Wolves on PS4 features online multiplayer, I don't know why SNK cut that off on Switch while they could have done it easily. Price really isn't the reason behind the lack of online in SNK games. Also if my memory is right, SF3.3 online edition was sold for 25$ on PS3, so if USF2 is about 25-30$ i would find it to be reasonable, but 40$ is just absurd.

[@dudecool5523]

I'm only buying because my dad love street fighter 2 and has agreed to pay for half of it if I let him play with me. I have no complaints, I only pay $20 and I have an excuse to play video games with my dad.

[@CapFlipGaming]

Stick on to that! I'm jealous, seriously. Have fun and enjoy the memories!

[@MedievalBrawler]

How often does your dad play street fighter ?

[@Iknowrealtv]

even if I had to pay $40 to play with my dad I would do it. The memories you will make will be way more worth the money you spend and one day he won't be there for you to play with and all you will have is sf2.

[@williamdavis7431]

They should have gone the Mega Man Legacy Collection route and put extra stuff with the physical version and have the digital version be half the price.

[@geoxev9423]

William Davis Thats what i was thinking. Im sure it will sell very well. They should a few extra modes. Now that i can see it being worth $35.

[@Reyn_the_Insane]

[@xxkarlosxxxxxx7233]

William Davis I think everyone agrees with $20... its the perfect price even though the game is worth $9.99 since its a classic

[@MariaRodriguez-hb4ix]

It could have being nice to not get the Hado mode . Instead getting a collector edition Ken Amiibo ( or whatever character they wanted ) . For the same $40 . Or even $50 . People would be happy to shell $20 - $30 for any Amiibo .

[@redcrimson1028]

bad idea on the half price thing, thrn nobody would buy the physical release if yhe digital version was cheaper, thats just logic and common sense. with all the ranting and complaining street fighter sold pretty well on the switch despite the 40 dollar price tag. i agree thst the price is too high but that didnt stop people from buying the game. i notice the bonus stages wasnt in it! why?

[@highiqkong7419]

In an alternate universe, Ultra Street Fighter 2 would be a $40-dollar game with 3 visual options: Classic 16-bit, HD UDON Sprites, and 3D Models (MT Framework or Unreal Engine 4 assets). The new 3D Models would have made this a worthwhile $40 purchase, and there wouldn’t be any contention.

[@PSNMyfoot]

Petty Sass in an ideal universe tho, Capcom goes bankrupt and is bought by Arc system works and we would be getting Street Fighter 3: 4th Impact with 3D graphics in the same style as GGXrd. That would be worth a couple hundred dollars. Or more.

Which is 45.6 US dollars. Here in Europe, we pay 40 Euros which is also 45.6 US dollars. I think the Americans pay the least for this game. But 40 dollars is still too much

[@goldfingerhardcore]

[@Risslight]

Give me a reason to play this on my switch instead of playing SF4 on my 3DS

[@popbampop8bam231]

Risslight I got it for an easy multiplayer game. Probably doesn't ease the idea of it costing $40 though

[@Risslight]

Yeah, playing with friend instantly on the go is the only point I see in this purchase, however, I don't see why people would interested in a 30+$ retro SF, I would buy it if it's SF5. Or Even SF4

[@Ramuh.]

I personally feel it is worth the higher price tag. I feel that I'm going to get my moneys worth because street fighter is the perfect game to do a quick round in on the switch with friends. If I'm waiting for a class to start, I'd Happily play this game for a bit with friends, rather than risk a long Mario kart race or bomberman game. I feel this is the game my switch collection really needed right now, as most of my friends have a switch. I have casual games for having fun with friends, but I didn't really have something I could competitively get into with them. Plus I need not worry if one of my friends does not have the game or console. A problem I faced quite a bit with the 3ds version of street fighter, along with other games. while I agree the price tag is steep, for me at least, Its going to be worth it.

[@dantemcr129]

well as compared to PS3's HD Remix? i think its worth atleast 45$ since you can play it on the go with those graphics and modern style sf

[@sh4dy832]

Still gonna buy it, it's one of the first 3 games I remember to have played. Together with my cousin, whom I haven't seen for ages (will see him soon again, however, thanks to metal).

[@Adamtendo_player_1]

I’m 6 years late but I just bought Ultra Street Fighter 2 on Switch although I didn’t pay £40 for my copy but I paid £31 although that’s probably still too much but I love Street Fighter 2 so I’d probably have paid its original retail price on Switch if I had got it back at launch.

[@OxBigly2010]

Sounds like the HD remix that was released a few years ago on the last gen consoles.

[@Resvrgam]

OxBigly2010 9 years ago (2008). That's right: Capcom is expecting customers to rebuy a $15 Xbox Live Arcade game from almost a decade for $40.

[@MarioUcomics]

You can say Violent Ken 1st appeared in the Street Fighter II anime movie back in the mid 90's

[@MultiShane4]

I think 40 bucks would be fine for this imo, this game is the same price as a standard 3DS game. Take it on the go and always have a way to play 1v1 with someone. I feel 40 is the bare maximum they can charge for this game, while 35 would be an average price and 30 and below being a "steal" as you would say. All depends on how people look at it I suppose

[@Linkman247]

I don't think it's worth it. I do think it's money grabbing/gouging. They are essentially charging $40 for what is a HD port of SSFII HD remix that came out on 360 in 2008 for $15. Everything is relative. Why would I pay $40 for a game that is 20+ years old when I can pick up any one of the ACA Neo Geo Fighters on Switch for $6-7 a piece. Or hell I could get Tekken 7 on Steam for $60.

[@MtMarshi]

Capcom are thick. The amount of friends who really want to play this game but simple cant justify the high price tag is many, including myself. I love Street Fighter 2, a hd version is great. But never ever forthis price. If it was half the price, myself and my friends would have pre ordered and bought day one. Now though im not sure even waiting for it to come down in price will make us buy this game, due to Capcoms now infamous greed.

[@hamitdeniz1171]

An honest review... As big of a street fighter 2 fan I am. It ain't worth no more than a tenner & it's an obviously cash & grab by Capcom

[@redbullninja11]

now its worth about $150 new and sealed lol

[@Resvrgam]

Capcom needs to fire their product managers. Between the giant middle finger to customers that was SFV and now this over-priced, repackaged 9 year old game (that cost $15 back in 2008 when it was called HD Remix), Capcom has lost all good faith from consumers. This is garbage. The UDON art makes the game look like it came from Newgrounds and the "Way of the Hado" should have never left the white board.

[@DNYLNY]

Worth every penny

[@enriquepinero707]

The only realistic way for them to justify this price (since people already seemed to pre-order it) is to 1. Reduce the price of the digital version by $10 and 2. Announce that they will be adding additional content throughout the summer (with at least one by next week), to include an improved buddy battle 2 v1 mode, where you can actually do 2 v 2 with 4 players and against the entire roster of characters in their respective stages. Another thing they could add, is a demo for an upcoming port of a street fighter 4 complete (with new buddy battle 2v2 mode) and maybe even the SF 2 animated movie with Japanese language and enlglish subtitles. Until I see some sort of announcement for these features, I have decided not to even touch this game.

[@Itsfayd]

It’s better then the street fighter 30th anniversary collection. I rather have a street fighter game for switch even if it’s a remaster, instead of a collection of old games

[@kayonesoft]

I'd much rather have a port of Capcom vs SNK 1 and 2 and SVC Chaos.

[@alopexau]

60 bucks later and eh, yeah it sure plays like SSF2, but it's all so ugly. They couldn't even scale the sprites correctly in either HD or classic mode... shimmering uneven pixels and annoying, oversized borders in classic mode, and strips of uneven pixels absolutely cover the HD sprites making them hideous and indistinct. The backgrounds are terrible, with screwed up perspectives, lacking animations that even HD Remix had and most objects have aliased edges, making everything look like cutouts, it's embarrassingly sloppy. The ending art too is mostly in blurry low res, except for the new charactewrs for some reason, the HD HUD in classic mode is distracting... every aspect of the presentation lacks a sense of cohesion, it feels duct taped together and half finished. Screw this game, I'm going back to using MAME, where I can play the original version, properly respected. A Wii caliber upgrade of Monster Hunter XX isn't going to cut it either Capcom... this system has good momentum, the least you could do is actually TRY to put some time and effort in before you inevitably cry about not selling 10 million copies of everything.

[@c4nnske]

Capcom: People are not buying Ultra SFII Turbo Ultimate Championship edition EX Deluxe for the Switch? That must means there's no interest for "hardcore" games, let's pull our support.

[@Reyn_the_Insane]

c4nnske They better release a full Mega Man collection before they do that, otherwise I'll riot.

[@Supercomet13A]

Eh, they will release a monster hunter to really gauge support. MH sells fairly well on 3ds, and people have been wanting a console MH for a while, at least since the wii u bombed.

[@jonesythegent]

+c4nnske it's sold out on Amazon cuz... I feel like it's worth $32 with my prime discount!

[@xxkarlosxxxxxx7233]

Joshua Jones nope its not worth $30... $20 is a competitive price... $30 and $40 for too much for a port and doesn't add anything new but garb non-working well Way of the Hado... online shouldn't be $20 more for a classic...

[@vio2112]

I remember they added online play to the Sega Genesis/Megadrive version of Super Street Fighter II on the Wii Virtual Console. I wonder if the servers are still up for that... Although it's doubtful anyone is actually playing it anyway.

[@chase36chase]

40$ ? fuck no

[@SupraViperhead]

If online mode were unlocked during the review period, the video of it's review would consist of gameplay footage of you sitting there, waiting for an opponent to show up. You know, because the only people that have the game are the reviewers, so unless you were there the same time as another reviewer, you wouldn't be able to test it.

[@pocketvelero]

Honestly $30 and no "Way of the Hado" would be fine for me. It's such an iconic game that half the price of a standard game seems fair. I think people arguing $20 are pushing it a bit.

[@tendofan]

I know I’m three years too late, but unless you’re a die-hard SFII fan, just get 30th Anniversary Collection. It has multiple versions of SFII _already,_ not to mention other SF games included. Yes, it has online play as well. Just way more SF for your buck. Even if you _are_ a die-hard SFII fan, I’d really suggest waiting for a price drop.

[@keykoji7134]

This game, or Street Fighter 30th anniversary collection. Trying to make a decision on what to buy

[@indoimran]

I'm a huge SF fan/competitive player but honestly the price kills it for me. Considering how dirt cheap the Neo Geo fighting games are on the Switch you'd have to be mad to buy this for 35 quid.

[@SmashJT]

The "Way of the Hado" mode made me cancel my preorder. I wish they just left that mode out and went with a $20 price tag. We all know it will be discounted to that or below shortly anyways...

[@visualcreativemt]

$20 in my opinion... Granted, it's cool that you can alter the SFX, the Graphics, and the Color Schemes, but we're talking about a game that's been out for years... Like they did with Thumper and gave the same price of $20 for the Switch. Clearly worth it, and love every moment of that game, but $40? Yeah that's just too much and disappointing since I'm a Street Fighter Fan.

[@roberthastings3215]

There selling costs of a 3ds game. Fire Emblem Echos or this? I wonder what I'm going to choose.

[@WhtGooz4841]

I just picked up Tekken 7 with a beautiful steel book and an additional character for 47.99$. I'd love to have a great fighting game on my Switch so based on that I'm willing to spend up to 6.99$ for Street Fighter.

[@RayCommend]

The first honest review that I have attn from a popular KZbin channel. I commend your bravery. Other channels are taking it easy to keep their relationship with Capcom smooth while taking their fans for granted.

[@sierracruz8224]

Very true I want Capcom games but when they try to play you like this its crazy and someone mentioned that they're not using the Street Fighter purchases on Switch as whether to bring other ip's to the console. From an article I read it sure sounded like they were. So basically if it doesn't reach what they expect I guess the system won't see support. sounds like an ultimatum which is BS.

[@TheRealDustinNunn]

I love USF2. I play online on it all the time on my Switch. If you have USF2, then you don't need the previous versions of Street Fighter 2.

Hello budy, how are you? I'm thinking of buying this one or the Street Fighter 30th Anniversary. which one do you think is better? I'm a serious Street fighter player and I intend to always play online to win the rankings. Street fighter 30th anniversary has more games. do you think ultra is better despite being a single game?

[@TheRealDustinNunn]

@@pabloricardo345 Ultra Street Fighter 2: The Final Challengers is the final updated version of Street Fighter 2. If you're going to get Street Fighter: 30th Anniversary Collection, I recommend playing Street Fighter 3: 3rd Strike on it. 3rd Strike truly shines on Street Fighter 3: 30th Anniversary Collection. I don't recommend the other Street Fighter games on Street Fighter: 30th Anniversary Collection because they are broken and unbalanced.

[@Adamtendo_player_1]

I’m a street fighter nut so I would buy the other versions in the 30th anniversary edition on Switch.

[@Stefcio-zg2dz]

The question is whether someone should buy it or not: if u have already different platforms on which u have played the game, why would u buy this one? On the other hand, if u have not played this game since it first release decades ago, then 40$ is worth the price.

Aww man, I know I'm still going to buy this. I'm a huge street fighter fan also LOVE the graphics/animation style.

Not sure Capcom can claim it's the ultimate version of SFII when it's missing all the bonus levels (according to Eurogamer's review). If it had been cheaper I'd have given it a chance but there's no excuse for charging that much for an Xbox Live game from 10 years ago.

[@Zilch93]

let me just say if you have a switch + Zelda botw wait on your next work check its only 40$ its not that bad don't be so cheap people

[@TheGamersState]

Sad truth to this is 40$ is actually low for Capcom. The prices they come up with for costumes in other Street Fighter games are way higher than that. I remember back when Super Street Fighter IV had a load of costume downloads and just 2 bundles came to over £40! And for reference, the game itself was only £25 so I guess in the eyes of Capcom, costumes are worth more than actual content and gameplay. Street Fighter V is abit better in this regard as many of the costumes are purchasable with fight money which is an in-game currency but even then, it's only abit better. And not even all the costumes can be bought this way, some them you have to pay real money for. So yeah, Ultra Street Fighter 2? No, not worth the cash, go put the money towards something else like Tekken 7 or heck, I'd even say ARMS and that's coming from someone that doesn't even care for ARMS.

[@sierracruz8224]

I remember back is the key word there, it was new then OLD now. its not worth 40 dollars even with what was added.

[@sferris33]

True. The $40 seems excessive but the great thing is one can take the game with you and play with your friends. I suspect the Switch will be more of a retro gaming console for 3rd party games (i.e. Sega games). If I could get remastered versions of SNES and Genesis titles then I would buy the Switch. Since Splatoon and Mario kart I've no interest in and lately a lot of modern 3rd party developers reject the notion of gaming to the Switch (Destiny 2 being the latest one).

[@omnomgamer8633]

I really want snes street fighter 2 turbo. I played it on my friends snes yesterday and it so much fun, its a high quality game for its time and hold up well even now but you cant get it on switch, only the arcade version as part of a bundle which is good but I wish the snes version was on the virtual snes or even the eshop

[@RickSuaz]

street fighter HD remix. for ps3. came out like 7 yrs ago. now Nintendo comes up with just 3 extra character. pffff

[@BonchurnoTheSpaceChowboy]

Nintendo has definitely devalued this game by overpricing it for sure imo. its a great game and the updated graphics look absolutely fantastic.... but instead of that being the main focus here, we're here dissecting the modes trying to figure out how Nintendo are justifying its price. And unfortunately it just isn't worth it for that amount. They should be charging the same price as Sonic Mania, at least with that game you're getting an entirely new experience AND its half the price of this SF game. Lower the price Nintendo, you'll make more sales in the long run.

[@TonyTama]

[@Metal-Josh]

I had bought this second hand about a year ago. And you’re right, it’s a lot for an old game. I e always loved SF2 since Special Champion Edition on Genesis. My draw to this version was that it is the “definitive version” with that switch between old and new visuals and sound. That Hado mode is just stupid. Tried it once, never again. It’s for fans, simple, and they’ll buy it up. But I’ll admit it, that price was too steep

[@Dajawright]

As someone who's never played Street Fighter ever I'm going to try this out.

[@DoctorFalchion]

I mean, it IS a full remake. This video seems to. . . not really talk about that fact all that much. In fact, the only reference to it (I think) is that you can turn it off! Like, really Alex? If they were just releasing it as - essentially - a virtual console release with those extra features, I would be in total agreement. However, this is a REALLY extensive visual remake. You know, between this, Sonic Mania, and indie games like OwlBoy it's really nice to see that 16-Bit Plus visual style (which has been coined "Hi-Bit") getting more and more popular. I love what can be done now with modern 2D games. There are few games out there where the characters look like they were ripped straight out of the concept art; this is one of them. Is $40 pushing it? Yeah, sure - but so is every AAA remake (looking at you Playstation - porting PS3 games over to PS4 and charging $60 for them, when you should've just had backwards compatibility). As is, I probably won't get it - as I'm not a Street Fighter fan - but for a series fan, this seems like an obvious purchase, even if $30 would probably be more appropriate.

[@DoctorFalchion]

+RobJuanDeLaNooch​ SFV visuals? Why would I want that?! Just because it's not 3D doesn't mean it's not a remake (seriously, do people not realize that a lot of work goes into 2D graphics too, and that these look amazing?). The visuals, so far as I can tell, have been done from the ground up. That is not a port at all. Is Pokemon HeartGold a port of the original Pokemon Gold? No, of course not. Furthermore, since when does a REMAKE have to have actual new characters or new stages? Does Last of Us PS4 have new content? How about Elder Scrolls Remastered? Heck, even other true remakes - like DuckTales Remastered - don't add much new content. You are, essentially, asking for SFVI. This is not SFVI. This is not an expansion for SFV. This is a REMAKE of SFII and a damn good one at that. Yes, it's nostalgia pandering - that's what a good remake should be. An old game brought up to newer standards and hardware, with new visuals and some bonus stuff to celebrate its legacy.

[@nintendolife]

+Kc Clark With respect a remake would be a new game designed to behave like the original but made from the ground up. This is a port with tweaks to things such as the visuals, but with a bulk of the code identical to the original arcade release.

[@DoctorFalchion]

Nintendo Life Ah, see, now that's a detail I hadn't realized. I still love the new visuals, but that does dampen it a bit that it hasn't been fully remade from the ground up. Thank you for the information. Still, it's a big visual overhaul. This does push my opinion a little more towards the "not worth it" column, but not drastically. At this point, I'm pinning $25 as my ideal price point, with $30 being totally reasonable and the current price as pushing it, but still worthwhile for series fans. I still believe a lot of people are making mountains out of molehills - a lot of gamers seem to want more game for less money nowadays. There's quite a few games in that $10-20 price range that seem underpriced to me at this point - Shovel Knight, for example. I think the prices we tend to demand hurt the industry, and encourage development of less quality games / more DLC / micro transactions (I've read that, with inflation, today's $60 games are well below the average price point in gaming history).

[@sierracruz8224]

I think that is total bs every couple of years tech advances making things cheaper don't give devs excuses to overprice games I understand when they come up with games that have highly advanced A.I where a lot of extra coding is involved. Or they have to work around old architecture, one this is an old game and they did a great job redoing some of the art but they did not put the effort that you think into it.30 bucks would have been ok physical, and 15 dollars for digital. The Switch is new tech that was made very developer friendly they had this game up and running in about 3 weeks I bet if that after they decided what art style they would implement and what features they would add and like most have said this is pretty much a remake of what was sold for less on the other 2 systems.

[@bdubcr]

ULTRA Street fighter 2 is Switch exclusive. The art is not the same as turbo remix look at digital foundry's video on it. This is the only hardcore 2d fighter with online on Switch and it already sold really well. Blade Strangers is a 2d fighter and it's going to be 39.99 so really USF2 has got value.

40 pounds for a PERFECT street fighter 2????. well for a start butter it up if you must,it's basically HD remix update,an the animation on the remix ruined the pace due to more frames between combo's which people noticed,meaning games were played old school mode to max out combo's an fluidic pace,,,,,,,at a guess this will be the rebalancing capcom are telling of,,,,,,,,.The two against one idea seems obviously unfair however this should help players not as good as hardcore pro's. The HD remix servers on ps3 an 360 were honestly worse I'd seen from capcom as matching fights relied on nothing but other than here you go 180ms ,,,,,Australia is awake results in very laggy unplayable fights.....yes it worked until servers dried up because the game wasn't great,,,,,,some matches wouldn't link giving a last minute kick due to a poor connection,an if host had a poor connection everyone would suffer , i want this to be good, but ssf2t had a perfect version years ago .evil ryu an ken at a guess are like akuma,,,,,,over powered characters for annoying youths online,,,,,, killer instinct is annoying due to characters like rash an shadow jago,,,,,,,,if ultra went pay for content like ki,,,,,i think people would flip for joy,,,,,,nooooo 40pound for a 25 yo game is wrong ,sf2 is special but we've seen it more than once

Yes, the game is worth $40. Is it an incredible deal like say $20 for almost 50 Sega Genesis games? No, but it is still a great game and I found being able to just separate the joycons for instant 2-player gaming is really fun. Even people I know who don't really play video games put down their snap chat to play Street Fighter II with me. $40 is fine. I spend more than $40 to take the kids to the movies for an hour and a half. I think this game was like $70 when my parents bought it for me on SNES back in the day. Oh, and one thing they fixed in this version is the difficulty curve. For some reason, the HD Remix release on PS3 CPU opponents were ridiculous with blocking and countering everything on even the easier modes.

[@andrewcooper7949]

I'm crazy hyped for this game. Street Fighter is my 2nd favorite fighter, behind Smash, and even I'm struggling to see myself spending 40 bucks on a rebooted snes port. I'd say I'll get it pre owned from Gamestop for like 15 in a couple months, but my Switch is 100% DLC and I want to keep it that way. Having my entire library at my literal finger-tips wherever I am is an amazing notion. I dunno... I'll probly pick it up. But only because the Summer Switch releases are a little weak, with Yooka and Rime getting delayed. Uhg!!!!

[@markxv2267]

Andrew Cooper Smash isnt a real fighting game though. But this game is! Cant wait!

[@andrewcooper7949]

MarkXV your subjective reality is amusing. What goes through a person's head like yours when somebody mentions an opinion of a passion and you're persuaded to tell them that your opinion is greater than theirs and even state such as factual. You're either a fool or a troll. Either way, not worth a person's consideration. Sad that even a carefree Nintendo video attracts such distasteful people.

Ones experience cannot put a price on anything. You either pay or pass

[@viruz7776]

[@reddragon2803]

X______X rip

[@corncobking600]

DR34MER777 tell me about it 😂 us Aussies have been screwed over with the price so much

[@hehanyaforger]

enel777 Good thing there's not region lock.

[@DoritosResidue]

Can't say 40 but I ordered from Amazon which was a bout 31. I still think it should only be 20 max . But hell this will be adding to my variety of games till arms and Splatoon is out.

[@TOMVMAKEUP]

I only payed €35 for it, 😌 but I would have payed the 40 cause this is pure nostalgy. It plays as smooth as ever! You didnt metion the artwork book ✋🏻 As a fan this is really great. I think this game is great excluding the hado thing.... (or whatever it is called)

[@Slurge47]

Ultra street fighter 2 or the sf 30th anniversary? Which is better to buy

[@supervideomaker9136]

Only going to get his game because I have never played SF2 before(played it a couple of times at arcades but not enough to fully understand the game)

[@marvelprofessor6324]

Can you play online?

[@KBoss302]

It’s March 2020 and this game is STILL $40. Even SFV has dropped significantly in price since then. Wtf?

[@Openreality]

I never bought the other versions. I think it's worth it personally. At least it's not 100 for the original SNES cartridge that's a repro in either red or green. So yeah 40 is still worth it Akuma has never been in SF II and he's my fave character and he's easier to use.

[@shinbakihanma2749]

Peter von Feldt dude, akuma is in the better versions for ps3 and 360.

[@Edlicious3DS]

I'd maybe pay $15. maybe.... But if Capcom released Resident Evil 4 HD for the Nintendo Switch on the other hand. I might tap out to that. I mean they've released that game on literally every system ever since it's released.

[@senayb3]

You forgot to mention the high quality art book man :p

[@MappatsYasharahla]

*i would pay 40$ for MK Trilogy tho*

[@witchersteve1918]

I'd be ok with 20-25$ and it's s shame because I was looking forward to this game as there are not many games for the switch that I like

[@popbampop8bam231]

Witcher Steve Yeah... I still have high hopes for a Smash port which is the main reason I got it! Though, I love the 4 games that I have already!

[@witchersteve1918]

Bai Mos I may get it but do you like it?

[@popbampop8bam231]

Witcher Steve I think it's fun. This is my first Street Fighter game and I've enjoyed it so far!

[@MariaRodriguez-hb4ix]

... Balrog becomes The Hulk ! LOL !

[@vio2112]

Heaven forbid they just port Street Fighter V over to the switch...

[@batman8293]

Why should they port a clearly rushed, unfinished game to the Switch?
