Personally with Fighting games and RPGs, I tend to get them at launch. Hopping into a fight game late when everyone has been playing for months or years is a slog. You'll run into players that already know the game and the match ups. When you get the game at launch, everyone is figuring things out along with you. With RPGs, I enjoy them more if the story hasn't been spoiled and avoiding those while using the internet is exceedingly difficult. |
Fair point on Nintendo, I do buy their games at launch, given they don't drop in price and could be hard to find in the future.
