I don't own a steam deck or any of its variants, and just recently sold my Pokémon edition switch to put towards the Switch 2's more than likely $400 or so price.
With Microsoft maybe a couple years away from a handheld, and the news of Halo coming to the PS5 and Switch (probably 2 only), I would definitely rebuy the MCC if it were in the $29 or lower range.
Microsoft will make a boatload of dough selling Halo to a new audience obviously, but if they try and put a $59 price on it just because its a day one release, they are nuts.....
Playing the campaigns on a long flight is right up my alley though

Would you purchase and if so, at what price?

 

[Ogbert]

No.

 

[DownLikeBCPowder]

No, but I don't care about Halo.

 

[Yamisan]

No, I would not rebuy a bad collection.

 

[KyoZz]

Where is the poll?

 

[Kacho]

Nah I'm good. Would be awesome tho.

 

[StereoVsn]

No. Have it on Xbox and PC.

 

[Jaybe]

No

 

[Vaquilla]

Already own all those games on OG Xbox/360, but I'd absolutely buy Halo 5 or Infinite if they came to Switch 2 as I never owned an Xbone/Series

 

[rabbity-thing]

Whatever, haters. I'd buy the heck out of it. Portable Halo? Sign me up, brothers.

 

[ReBurn]

No I already own it. I wouldn't buy it again.

 

[BennyBlanco]

Nah I have it on Steam

 

[ResilientBanana]

I own it on Xbox and Steam. If it had crossplay, I'd contemplate it.

 

[GametimeUK]

Yes because I'm a sucka. Day 1 on PS too.

 

[Topher]

No

 

[hououinkyouma00]

Day 1 on every platform with an immediate play through of the 5 good games.

No, I would not rebuy a bad collection.

Look at this guy's shit taste.

 

[Ribi]

Why would I play it on inferior hardware?

 

[dispensergoinup]

Haven't played Halo since 2, so no.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

They don't hold up even on PC IMO so no.

 

[Hollowpoint5557]

No.

 

[ComputerBlue]

Yep, and I'll buy it day one when it releases on PlayStation as well. I already own it on Xbox and Steam.

 

[Brigandier]

No

 

[Three]

Why would I play it on inferior hardware?

I mean it's 360 remasters for an xbox one. Switch 2 should have no problem with it really.

 

[Dacvak]

Damn right I would. Portable Halo would be incredible. Plus, the Switch Pro controller is so much better than the PS5 controller for gyro controls (and also just in general), and I wish I could use gyro aim in Halo. (Just for micro movements.)

 

[Codes 208]

Yes. Mainly to relive the nostalgic feeling of wanting to play halo on a Nintendo handeld

Anyone here remember the halo ds "leaks"?

 

[NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt]

Damn right I would. Portable Halo would be incredible. Plus, the Switch Pro controller is so much better than the PS5 controller for gyro controls (and also just in general), and I wish I could use gyro aim in Halo. (Just for micro movements.)

I would buy it just for the multi-player aspects of those games. Would be great for whenever friends are over

For real. Plus, I travel a lot, and I have one of those tiny mobile Switch docks that I bring everywhere. So I'm always doing little pop-up gaming setups wherever I am with whoever's around. Shit, I'll commandeer a TV at a bar or hotel lobby if they'll let me, and put Mario Kart, Smash Bros, or Jackbox on there for random people to play.

Halo would be an excellent addition.

[justiceiro]

A game all about online on Nintendo servers? In a game already infamous for it's original bad servers?

No, I don't hate myself.

 

[MrRibeye]

Why would I play Halo instead of Nintendo's launch title when the Switch 2 comes out?

 

[DeepEnigma]

No

 

[Pasta la Vista]

No. I buy Nintendo hardware for Nintendo games.

Right now I'm looking for portable monitors to get for my Switch. Do you have any recommendations?

 

[Zannegan]

If they have the local multiplayer, 100% I'm down.

 

[ReBurn]

I'm pretty sure they'd let you play other stuff, too. You don't have to only play Halo.

 

[blacktout]

Yes, but not day one unless the launch lineup is especially sparse. I would probably wishlist it and pick it up on sale, which is basically what I have been doing with nearly every game for the past few years since my Switch backlog has become unmanageable.

 

[AJUMP23]

Already played it.

 

[Danjin44]

No, I'm not in to Halo.

 

[Guerilla Munch]

I will buy it day one for $70 and play god-tier og trilogy multiplayer in portable mode every day for the next decade

 

[Dacvak]

I haven't bought a portable monitor in a long time, so I know the tech is much better and cheaper now. I'd probably just get a 15" 1080p with HDMI in. Something like this seems super reasonable:

The thing I don't know is what the best way to hook up a switch to it would be, cause all of the portable docks require an AC adapter. Here's the dock I have, which works great. It's basically just a cable, but you still need to plug the USB-C wall adapter into it (though I just use my MacBook charger) https://a.co/d/asVEtzf

I'm gonna look around to see if there are any portable monitors that also double as Switch docks. That would be awesome, and I wouldn't be surprised if it exists.

 

[Deerock71]

I would.

 

[CokeDiet]

Switch 2 would not be able to run it.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

I don't think Nintendo fans give a shit about Halo

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

no

keep that shit away man

if master chief was in smash that would be annoying too

 

[Robb]

I would, but only if they'd include all games on the cartridge somehow.

 

[Södy]

Not sure. Played these games so so much. Still love them but without mods, I get bored pretty quick nowadays. But when it's on sale and the multiplayer has good (non sweaty) population, I might pull the trigger.

 

[Ozzie666]

i don't think so, If you said PS5 maybe. It would have to launch in a good state unlike the original launch.
Haing siad that, it would depend on how thw Switch 2 version looked and preformed.

 

[Heart_Attack]

Why? The game is dead online. Only people left playing Reach and Halo 3 are tryhards.

 

[Parazels]

The MC collection is great. I would have voted "Yes", if I hadn't played it before.

 

[Makoto-Yuki]

No.

I'll buy it when they add Halo 5.
