Rayman Legends definitive edition (Nintendo Switch) £24.99 preorder @ Grainger games

even at this price its a tad expensive with the age of the game,would of been all over it if it also included origins

Has been £3 and bits on PC.

I have it on PC, it was free...but I've never played it. I will still buy it on Switch because it's portable so I will actually get a chance to play it.
Direct comparisons to PC prices for Switch games are pretty pointless imo

Tempted but think I'll wait for a good price on digital for this. Sonic Mania next week in the meantime

Great but I can also play Arms and Breath of the Wild on the Switch which are two of my favourite games. Each to their own.

MY GOD. Even for nintendo fanboys it should not be too appealing a deal. Firstly this has been on the pc in various bundles under a fiver many times. Secondly no matter how much they say it, there is no way this is the definitive version of the game. It is a re-hash of an old game which people thought was good initially which wasn't really that good and can be played on any other console for much less. Oh wait, that description is literally honey to a nintendo fanboy lol.

What makes me laugh these nintendo fanboys saying they will play rayman on a plane and whilst out and about. I guess when you're popping in and out of meetings with the rockefellers and arabian royalty, you need some down time on the jets.

Afterall, on business trips people often mostly worry about not their paperwork, laptops and mobile phone, they're concerned about their nintendo switches. Sod the the ipads also.

I rolled my eyes at the nintendo adverts for the switch which depicted a utopia where only millennials with their model looks lived in high rise new york apartments. These ethnically diverse millionaires in their 20's casually invite each other to come have parties on rooftops so the girl with the poofy hair can cheer on as two diverse gender neutral people can play mario kart. Oh and the abercrombie and fitch male models who would rather stop playing a game of basketball so they can jump on a virtual game of basketball on the switch (which is not even released yet from what I know).

Ah yes, the reality according to nintendo and apple never ceases to amaze me.

Breath of the wild has become my top game of all time on any console. I rate it that high, arms not so much but like you say each to their own.

Depends on how much you value convenience. As I said, I have never and will never play it on PC, but getting it on Switch I will play it when I'm on a plane or out and about. Portable PC gaming is possible but not as convenient since a tablet lacks integrated controls. Depends how much you value convenience and how it fits with your lifestyle. Without the Switch's USP I would 100% agree with you but it has revolutionised gaming for me and I'm happy to pay a premium for that.
As I said, each to their own.

Eeeeeeee granger games. 👇

Amazing game, I've got to admit. Just a shame it was £5 new to me on Wii U three years ago. It's an amazing multiplayer game. Still glad I stuck with the Wii U for now.

This is a budget price for a switch game

That's part of the issue though - The obligatory "switch tax" just compounds things

£24.99 for a 4 yr old game with no improvements? You're having a larf!

Don't be. I only meant most of what I said.

Don't do that. Don't be passive aggressive and rude. My opinion on a game has nothing to do with you, it is quite sad you're interjecting trying to be smart.

Nicw price but I assumed this would be cheaper than normal switch games

I also just realised it's slightly cheaper at simply games for £24.85

Is this the same as the xbox version?

Yeah i think so, not sure what it means by definitive edition exactly though.

Only 4 players on switch? It was more than that on last gen. Shoddy port incoming!

People's gripes *cringe*

£25 for - definitive or not - a game of this calibur is HOT.

Hmm... To me, This re-release speaks of ubisofts poor view of its clientele... It's an old game, that has been released on every other system going... It should have been released at a budget price but instead they release at full price and people lap it up due to the lack of a decent current catalogue for the switch....

Gaming is in danger of going even further down the toilet due to it becoming less about fun or artistic expression and more about making money and eeking as much cash out of customers as possible through DLC and lazy rehashed yearly franchises (assassins creed, Fifa, COD etc).

I mean, the news leak today about Nuni kuni 2 having a season pass... Grrr... That really grinds my gears...

for most console as well, unless sony and microsoft started selling new release at 24.99 and no one told me.

but i do get his point, with it being such and old game it really should of included origins as well or been £20 at most

peopel also dont seem to get/remember that games are a lot cheaper than the snes/n64 days more so if you add inflation.

new games (unless budget) have never been £25 even 20-30 years ago (edited)

It was at least this much when it came out on the xbox one and it was an old game then.

I'm sure it's better they port the game and charge this than just don't bother.

If you haven't played it it is definitely worth paying this.

When do they take cash at grainger?

I'm not buying this but it isn't full price. And gaming has been (in the main) about making money since Nintendo launched the NES.
