Does this game show up on the e-shop at midnight east coast time or west coast midnight/ 3am east coast?
Required for Use
Attention: a micro SD card with a free storage space of minimum 32GB is required to download this game.
This will be the first 2k I've actually owned. Ive always played on my cousins PS3 and PS4 every year since 2011 even though I have both those consoles. I'm over at his house enough to get my fix. But now were moving into our adult lives I've been itching for an NBA fix and having it portable finally pushed me over to dive in.Doing the same right now lol looks great. This is on handheld. It's blowing my mind.
I've been playing NBA 2K17 on my cell phone, but nothing compares to actual buttons and the vocal commentary isn't cut here.
So has anyone that bought the game to be able to clarify a few things?
First off, the developers managed to get the game down to (Required Space) 22.9GB which is less than the 25GB target they were aiming for which is good.
But then on the eShop page it asks:
It's most likely you need more than 22.9GB when installing everything which is why you can't do it on the internal memory since that's only 25.9GB big.
So, what I know to know is if it's still 22.9GB after installation?
Of course this doesn't tell us what the physical version is going to be like if it will have the same file size on game card.
how are the tutorials in this? some gamer friends dont really follow nba but want a mp switch game to play with me. does it offer deep dives into different plays and stuff?
I think it was stated a page or so back that the game is about 23GB, but there may be a save file that is fairly large. Of course, with patches and the like, the game can eventually balloon over 23GB.
It looks worse than the 360 games to me in the videos posted..no clothes physics? Why did they sacrifice frame rate for?
Then you need to get your eyes checked. This one looks much better, like I'm seriously surprised someone would even make such a claim.It looks worse than the 360 games to me in the videos posted..no clothes physics? Why did they sacrifice frame rate for?
Where do you see it on Best Buy? I had pre-ordered and cancelled because the date changed to 10/17.
Where are you seeing this? Still shows as Oct 17 for me.
So anyone have any idea when this will be up on the eShop?
Yeah, but this is just for the initial installation. It mentions that the game could require more space because of patches on another paragraph in fine print, not a warning.
That's why I just want to know what numbers are given, it's most likely that the game was too big for installation because it has to unpack things while it installs which is why an SD card is needed because the internal memory is insufficient in size.
is the save file really 6GB large?

This is great for casuals
But after playing a few matches, no way can I play this serious. It feels so off at 30fps and it's not a looker, it's a great port but not if you own any other system. It feels a tad sluggish, there is a judder during any game in the playground and it's either frame pacing or it's sitting just under 30, but something isn't right. Hoping DF do a video on it
Oh man..I'll still be picking this up for portable play but this sounds disappointing.

Says 22.9GB on my sdcard and 3GB to the internal storage totaling 26GB so far on version 1.02 and latest update installed
It will be fine for portable play, it's still a great achievement and looks much better than the PS3/360 era of models.
This is their first go at scaling their engine, I think come next year it will look like this at 60fps.
Don't be disappointed this is definitely the version I would bring to a party and pull those joy cons off to enjoy some good playing

Well that sucks to hear.

2K17 is already the 7th best selling game on the Japanese eShop. Some people were thirsty. xD
Fuuuuck what do I do? Buy it now and let it eat up half of my memory card, or wait for the physical? I prefer physical media--resell value. But then again, how often do you resell a sports game for a decent amount? After the year is up, it's worthless. And then there's the money. Dragonball is coming out next week. Fuck.
But Oct 17th is like a month away. What do I do?
I have been debating the same thing. Plus I haven't paid $60 for a new game since gcu was invented. But you have to look at your personal situation. In my case, I'll fly at least 4 times for work between now and the physical release. Sure I'll save $10 and have a trade value later, but that's 8 flights that I wasn't able to enjoy the game. Easy choice this time.
i was dumb enough to get the switch and x1 version, you can 1000% tell the difference in graphics and fluidity.
BUT switch is mobile... and its playable docked and undocked, just dont play it after being use to the x1/ps4 version.
