If Cave Story is free, why do people buy it?
Is it because of HD and a new level for +?
>>
Because they don't want pixel to be homeless

Show support

If p2p connections are free, why do consolefags pay for them?

Learn Japanese anon, become one with your imports.

when I was in college I wanted to play it on my tv so I bought it for wii (I have since built a better setup).
I also wanted to show support.
I also liked the + music, which I realize is a controversial opinion.

the other option would have been to play it for free on my shitty laptop that couldn't even open a web browser without shitting the bed
>>
>>318071802
You can download the freeware Japanese then download an English patch... or Download the Deluxe edition on their site.
>>
Because if I was Pixel and I had made Cave Story I would expect me to do the same. It's just good manners.
>>
>>318072016
Hm, reasonable. Just saying considering they have the original to give away.
>>
How much of each purchase goes to Nicalis and how much goes to Pixel?
>>
>>318071218
I played it for free first and enjoyed the hell out of it. Paying for a version that has extra content like playable curly is worth it for $10. Pixel isn't even asking you to pay for it. If you enjoyed it and think he deserves your money then show him your support. If not,then you still got to play a great game for free
>>
>>318073831
Is Plus worth it?

How much extra content have they added than what OP said?
>>
>Unironically talking about Gaia Story

If only I had an image of an anthropomorphic looking frog that signaled my disgust, perhaps future anons will be able to achieve this.
>>
Cave Story was good.
>>
>>318074624
Boss rush,time attack,changing difficulty,curly mode,some extra skins for quote. Can someone explain why the music is controversial? Also it's considered the definitive version since cave story 3d wasn't as good. We'll worth it if you haven't played it in a while
>>
>>318078587
Ah shit, this is going to be a hard decision for me since I played the original.

Is Plus at least waay different enough for me to buy the game and enjoy it but similar Not too similar ?
>>
>>318071218
That, and I imagine its low price tag has something to do with it.
>>
>>318071781
This method is garbage and I hope nobody does this
>>
>>318071218

That guy deserves some money for it, Also it is really cheap, specially if you get it in a steam sale
>>
>>318078948
The game us pretty much the same,that is unless you try hard mode or curly mode,then it'll feel pretty different. If it's cheap and if it's been a while since you've played cave story,then go for it

>>318071218
because pixel is one of the good ones and deserves my support.
>>
>>318079175
What method is best then anon?
>>
>>318079787
Buy a plane ticket to nip land,break your phone, burn your wallet,and get lost in shibuya.

Cave No Story was a fun ride

-The HD graphics, while minimal, they look good. It has some nice features like Halloween and Christmas texture packs.
-Includes 2 additional soundtrack packs. The first, pretty lame, second, also used in CS3D, is quite damn good.
-Boss rush mode.
-Hard mode.
-Two additional levels.
-Steam shit like cards and trophies.
>>
>>318071218
>Enjoy game
>Like game
>Give support to the creator of said game so maybe one day you'll play something just as good

I know it's hard to understand for certain people here but yeah that's how economy ideally works.
>>
>>318082680
I believe it was three new levels (MG challenge, Nemesis challenge and Wind Fortress).

Otherwise what you said. I preferred the newer graphics too.
>>
>>318083079
>>318082680
I'm convinced.
>>
>>318082680
>>318084004
It doesn't have cards though. Everything else mentioned ITT is accurate and the Plus version is recommendable.

I still have to beat the game in hard and defeat Ballos...
>>
>>318085508
I forgot about the 3rd level and the lack of cards. I haven't played the game in years.

OP, look for a translation patch, it replaces the current localization from the one of the free game, or you will miss the "Huzzah!".
>>
>>318071218
Because a game like Cave Story is worth at any price
Because I want a physical version of the game
Because it's a game I already cleared more than 20 times
Because Cave Story is my favourite game
