Konami announces Vic Viper, Simon Belmont, and Pyramid Head for Super Bomberman R

Far from it. Temporarily getting a few of their devs off forced janitor duty to put out some extra content for their little game does not make up for their shit.

Eh I'm enjoying Bomberman a lot, as long as they make good games I'll play them. That's not to say what their management did was tolerable, the companies output is simply redeemed in my eyes thanks to Bomberman.

This isn't just extra content. Bomberman is being treated really well after looking like it had just stumbled out of hospital.

They're actually showing love for a thing called videogames again. It's a start.

Whaaaaat?!

Bomber Belmont?!?!

Holy shit, that's the closest we got to a Castlevania game in years! :lol

Is it unlocked right off the bat or you have to buy it via the god damn hard to earn game's currency?

Simon Belmont just sold me on this game. I was on the fence, but the 60 fps patch and now this pushed me over the edge.

Just a reminder, Konami will be holding a Bomberman R tournament next week in Japan, so yeah it's cool they are giving fucks about it.

HOLY SMOKES! I didn't really expected those three characters become Bomberman-ish. They gotta to add Snake Bomberman, right? Bomberman fans finally get treated very well this generation.

Man, this game must've went over all of Konami's expectations. First the patches, now GOOD costume DLC? What next, new levels and game modes?

Lol literally the day after I sold my Bomberman r game they release a patch that fixes my main gripes about the game and announce more dlc. Figures. Made my money back on the sale though, so maybe I'll pick it up again when it's on sale.

nowadays you should know that patches always comes afterwards. Its expected by now unfortuantly.
 
Those are adorable. I had always planned on picking this up when I got my Switch, but those recent patch notes and these have cemented my purchase.
 
What is this? Was the game bumped to 60fps?

Yepp.

I'll download this today. The price put me off, but the support from the developers have got me willing to drop a hefty dollar on this. So why not? Lol.

If they advertised this additional content in the pipeline from the start I'd have bought it at launch...
 
How... How did this game go from average to awesome in one day? I still don't think I'd buy right now, but this seems to suggest that I'll have one awesome game waiting when I finally do buy in.
