Hmm, so up in Canada it could be up $15-20. Not bad.

 

It really just suck that $15-20 indie game in the US cost $25-30 and that is too much to buy game I really want to warranty that price. I wait for sales but waiting on sales for specific indies is a pain.

I don't know what "Baobabs Mausoleum Ep.1: Ovnifagos Don’t Eat Flamingos" is, but that's one hell of a name. 

 

I'll definitely be getting Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon- I backed the Kickstarter, and this is part of it. 

 

I might double dip on Ikaruga, though I'm holding out hope that we get Radiant Silvergun.

I've been interested in Yoku's Island Express since it was first announced so I'm definitely getting that. I'm working on a review for Punch Club which I'll probably post early next week. I also want to start Runner3 and I've only just started Battle Chasers: Nightwar. Basically I have too much to play right now.

$12.49 for Bloodstained: Curse of the moon up in Canada, not too bad.

 

As much I think I don't have interest in Sushi Strikers, I wish could DL the European demo of the game. Every since last Friday, I can't see access or make new account on My Switch for some reason.

 

On Friday, I saw a weird little grey"!" by my user icon for my European account and it was asking me to sign when I click the icon. I haven't signed in there for a while but I maybe I put in password one too many times incorrect and I can't get back in. I removed the account try to make another but it keeps saying account already exist. To be honest I only made that account just incase demos that come out there first I can DL from before they make it or not to NA. This is extension to the Japanese account I made on my Switch, (luckily still works) more often than not demos there do not release to NA at all. So I'm glad that is still up.

 

Coincidentally I want to blame the royal weeding just cause the account was fine before all London going gaga over the wedding but I just want to know why I cannot make another Euro account now.

I used some of my gold points to pre-purchase Yoku's Island Express. Might wait for some reviews on Punch Club and I decided to go for Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon, kinda fun so far though I was never a fan of the old CV titles. Ritual of the Night is what I really want and I wasn't a backer so definitely getting it.

I played the Sushi Striker demo and HOLY CRAP!...It's good! I wanna get it on Switch, but not at $50 (I thought is was going to be like a $20 eShop game when announced at E3 last year). I might pick it up if it ever goes on sale for a decent price. 

 

Also, need I mention this opening? Some good shit right here! 🎧🎵

I wonder how well that Street Fighter collection will sell.  I'm not a big fighting game guy but I think that is a good deal for that many games.

Keep in mind that this is a compilation title first. I think it'll do well enough for something of that nature. Not to mention having basically the history of the 2D Sprite era in one place is plus. Just for kicks, wished they included Street Fighter: The Movie: The Game...though it would be the arcade version, not the relatively better built console version.

I'd be more interested if wouldn't usually be just myself playing it.
