Alright, let’s dive into this thing with all the grace of a cat on a slippery floor. I mean, what’s even going on with DELTARUNE and this whole cross-buy business? So, tobyfox dropped the news bomb: grab the game on your cozy Nintendo Switch and surprise, you’ll snag it for free when you hop onto the shiny Switch 2. Honestly, it’s like getting two slices of cake for the price of one. Yes, cake. I’m already hungry.
And if you’re flipping back and forth between consoles like a confused pancake, just make sure your Nintendo account doesn’t get lost in translation. It’s a small price to pay for some digital hopping, except if you’re chilling in Japan. Sadly, there you’ll have to pay a teeny fee thanks to local rules. Why is everything always more complicated in Japan? Or maybe I watched too many anime. Who knows.
Oh, and there’s this line from the developer’s newsletter that made me chuckle: “Mee-yow, my FOMO’s clearing right up!!!” It’s like they’re speaking directly to my inner voice that fears missing out on pixelated fun times. Why do these quirky lines stick with me so much? Someone needs to research this!
The game itself? Kind of a spiritual sibling to UNDERTALE—full of heart, humor, and those battles where you’re never quite sure whether to hug or hurt. Easier said than done, right? I’ve often thought about sparing that last slice of pizza, but never followed through. Anyway, back to games.
Features? They’re laid out like sprinkles on a cake: a colossal soundtrack (bigger than my playlist, I bet), new and nostalgic faces—except Papyrus, who’s apparently too busy. Too busy for whom, I wonder? There’s even Temmie, now with a fancy new hat. Yup, that’s the one detail I’ll remember. It’s weird what sticks in our mind—like my aunt’s laugh. Never mind.
The battles? Get ready to dodge in ways inspired by Touhou and Chrono Trigger. Remember those? Well, maybe it’s just me and my nostalgic goggles. Also, there’s a hint about a devilishly hard hidden boss. Great, as if life’s challenges weren’t enough.
And, plot twist: just one ending. No alternate realities here. Makes you wonder why, doesn’t it?
Slide your eyes to June 5, 2025. That’s your date with DELTARUNE Chapters 1-4 on the digital shelves of the Nintendo eShop. Mark your calendars, unless you’re like me and calendars are just decoration.
So, there you go. DELTARUNE, cross-buy magic, and possibly misplacing your Nintendo account in a digital move. Feels almost like life, doesn’t it?
