shes clearly a milf

So what's the deal with this? It was up on eShop for a few hours and the retail release came and went a few days ago but nobody can find it.

It was all a ruse

>The company that published it is owned by the surviving Koch brother
>The actual owners of Cooking Mama don't know shit about it
>The press release describes it as having blockchain-based DRM
>The headquarters of the publisher is a house in Connecticut
>If you got your hands on it, it won't launch unless you're online
>Switch network traffic skyrockets, battery life craters, and the thing overheats in about half an hour

Is this going to be one of those games that skyrockets in price cause of scarcity and rarity?

Maybe, unless someone confirms it's malware.

Officially licensed malware on a Nintendo platform? That'd be worth a fortune if true, just for the novelty.

If it were actually true there would be a massive lawsuit coming the publisher's way.

Can people really be that dumb?

just bought a copy on amazon just in case.

See you all in 10 years when im filthy stinkin rich

Not American Amazon. Something was up from the start since the pre-order for the game was dropped minutes after I saved the image.

Welcome to the future of DRM, It's no longer limited to PC now.

You could've stopped this.

>turkish cooking mama

she cute

This is a hilarious story and i cant wait for it to be a fun fact in random top 10 lists in a few years

her engrish is still cute
bros, why did it have to be her game?

I'm trying to figure out why they went with cooking mama too. All their other titles are shovelware. Cabelas and bass pro shops will license their name to literally anything, but cooking mama at least is a well known presence in the video game industry. It's not like it's an old outdated IP that needs a revival, so I can't imagine the parent company would be okay with this shit.

Seriously what the absolute fuck is happening anymore. Why does it seem like no one is talking about this besides Yas Forums?

previous thread with the whole debacle for anyone curious

Reddit and Twitter are saying less than this

Is it seriously mining and fucks with the Switch hardware? How will it not launch if you're not online?

So what you are saying is the physical copies will double in value in a couple of years.

I cant tell if this is just elaborate shitposting or not

I checked "Cooking Mama Cooking Star" on the Twitter search and all I saw were random tweets before April from J-Popfags and Some random tweets from 2010. I don't know how reddit works so I didn't check there.

It's worth $60 now in ten years it will be worth a staggering $61 this is an excellent investment

how would a hardware such as the fucking SWITCH be fitting for crypto mining anyway? rigs with x200 the raw power already struggle running at full power 24/7 for weeks

>what is stadium events
>what is nba elite 11

games that have very limited releases definitely go up in value, probably even more so from a well established franchise. The story is more interesting than the game itself.

Source?

This game is fucking cursed

>Key blockchain components for “Cooking Mama: Coming Home to Mama” include:

>Unique Blockchain Private-Keys – Each purchased copy of the game will have unique IDs which will be managed directly through the game’s internal wallet storage. Players will be able to focus on Cooking Mama’s user experience rather than cryptographic key management.
>Private-Key Enabled Balanced DRM – Traditional DRM limits the ability to copy games, while private-keys on blockchain protocols allows easy registration. These combined items provide greater proof of ownership to legitimate owners of a game, while also allowing them to resell games both digitally and in traditional retail outlets.
>Enhanced Multiplayer Experience with Dual Expression – This feature, when enabled, makes every copy of a game subtly different and personal to a user. It utilizes the private-key to change expression algorithms for characters, ingredients and cooking methods.
>Securing Online Events – For promotional events, player records and participation can be tracked while maintaining privacy. In addition, hashes of the running game can be recorded to ensure the game has not been altered to create an unfair advantage.
>Digital Assets, Rewards, Recognition – Users will be rewarded with in-game currency (or points, experience, and other items) or earn recognition and certificates. These could be provided by the game, other players, or third parties that host tournaments or other promotions.

What the fuck was the intended purpose of this? Why go through these lengths for a Cooking Mama game? Were they really afraid hacking was going to ruin the Cooking Mama in-game economy?

z0mg guys teh epic conspiracy!!

>no fun allowed

The claim about it being a bitcoin miner is unsourced, but there has to be a reason why the game was quickly removed from the eShop and physical copies are mostly delisted.

Based mama knows the size don't matter.

It was delisted because they couldn't print enough copies due to the virus and they wanted to have it out by the end of March but forgot to take it down
It REALLY isn't that complicated
Last of Us 2 and Final Fantasy 7 also have wacky store date problems because of Chinese virus

What really blows my mind is how the gaming journalism sphere has barely even spoken about the game, considering how they'll happily write articles and articles on """""rumours""""" that are blatantly false.
So how come they've barely even touched on this Cooking Mama deal in spite of the story reaching back years by now and with all crazy things surrounding it?
Are they like afraid of pissing off a certain crowd or what's the deal? There has to be a reason doesn't it?

And they've been unable to release a statement about this for days? Other affected games did.

this still doesn't explain all the other bullshit like why the parent company hasn't acknowledged it at all, why it wasn't in the nintendo direct, why all the trailers were leaked, why there has been nothing from the publishers social media accounts since the 27th. The focus on blockchain technology over actual gameplay, you'd have to be blind to not see all the weird shit surrounding this game.

not those anons but I was trying to figure out what it was encoded in. thanks.

HAHA COCKSTAR XD

R34 when?

Because it was never officially announced and they have no idea when they're going to be able to release it.

And why it wasn't even featured in the Nintendo Direct.

No, it fucking just loads up a pic of "MOMMA FOR SMASH"
"MOMMA WILH EHP UUUOO WEN"

Except even the digital release is gone

this
the series isn't completely unknown
it has a good small following
everything around it is just strange as fuck
