What would people like to see Tell Tale games bring to the Switch?? I think a collection of all The Walking Dead games so far with a pass for all of season 3 is a good start. Possibly The Wolf Among Us and its hopeful sequel would be good. However, something id really love to see is a Switch exclusive bases on a Nintendo ip!!

The Wolf Among Us, since I already watched all of The Walking Dead episodes on YouTube.

Most Telltale games are written even worse than Breath of the Wild. It's like the writers get bored and snipe a character through the forehead every ten minutes or so.

Maybe I'd care if they weren't so short and poorly written. 'Cause dontnod made a game better than all of Telltale's works put together in 2015 (Life is Strange), and Telltale hasn't moved since.

Don't hate me because I'm bnahabulous.

Minecraft Storymode is already coming.

@Haru17 I dunno, I think that Telltale's The Walking Dead (Season 1) is a masterpiece in video game writing - just a rollercoaster of emotions throughout! ..especially that final sequence - man, it got me! () ..I must admit, though, that the Telltale games I've played since have failed to capture that same magic - they've all felt a little too formulaic and, on occasion, rather dull - so I've kind of developed a bit of 'Telltale-fatigue'. Still, I'd love to see The Walking Dead ported over - just so anyone who hasn't played it can have that experience! (Pro tip: Have a box of tissues ready!)

@NaviAndMii It's a masterpiece in being the first Telltale game everyone plays and killing off loose end characters they can't be bothered to animate any more and don't think new players will notice the futility of. If they're going to make choices that fake and lousy they shouldn't purport to be choice-based in the first place. Telltale writing actively offends me, especially cannibal, zombie TV tie-in cameo garbage like TWD. I guess even that is better than Guardians of the Galaxy though, lol.

@Haru17 Haha! I see your point ..I can forgive TWD (S1) it's flaws because of how impactful I found the core Lee/Clementine storyline - genuine tear-jerker, for me at least! (no game had affected me like that since I thought I'd accidentally killed the Great Deku Tree in Ocarina of Time by taking too long to complete the first dungeon! ..even then, I was too young to understand that even a world-class speed-runner couldn't have saved him! Haha!) ..but the other Telltale games have left me feeling pretty much the same as you to be fair - almost like they're content to just churn these things out whenever another franchise comes along that they feel they can milk like a cash cow!

@NaviAndMii Yeah, I mean you should definitely like what you like, I just felt more cynical when I tried to enjoy TWD s1. If it has one thing going for it it's got to be how much stronger the conclusion was than other Telltale games. I can barely even remember the Wolf Among Us' who dunnit moment because of how generic and random the villain was. And of course the death tease at the end of ep. 1 was shocking, but so cheap the second you come back for ep. 2.

@NaviAndMii I'm with you it was a great and great story and one that stayed with me. Have you tried The Wolf Among Us?? Doesn't have the emotional intensity but a great setting and characters and my second favourite story so far.

@jump yeah id heard Minecraft was coming in July. Its a good game no complaints about it but id really like to see a Nintendo IP get the telltale treatment.

Telltale are still the Sam and Max guys to me. Seems like everyone here looks at them in an entirely different way...

Telltales games have been rapidly declining in quality and I'm losing faith the company can release a game with actual heart and soul again. All there latest releases feel churned out and the gameplay seems to be simplified with each iteration.

I'm not saying I'd mind them being on the Switch for people who clearly like their games but I can say it's not something I'm dying to see.

@Zyrac Not me!

@bluemage1989 Episode 1 of The Wolf Among Us was available for free on XBL (or PSN? can't remember!) a while ago - I quite enjoyed that first chapter, but never got around to buying the rest of them...I might be tempted to dip back in if I see it on sale or something

@NaviAndMii I would say pick up the retail version off of Amazon (its normally very cheap) I enjoyed the first chapter but felt everything after really stepped it up.

Star Fox would make a great Telltale game as would Paper Mario and Captain Falcon/F Zero. I'm not sure if Metroid would work but what do you guys think??
