@Grumblevolcano No. Not at all.

I've encountered almost nothing in the way of bugs or glitches so far.

Or they've been so slight that I just haven't noticed them.

Apart from some weirdness with shadows, of course.

@Grumblevolcano Sonic 06 broke when you looked at it funny. Ys VIII just has a bit of graphical and text errors here and there. Not really comparable.

@JaxonH I kind of wish I had waited for the Switch version now.I played the game on the PS4 a few months ago and absolutely loved it but seeing the touch screen in action..so much easier than the dual shock controller..

It's not Sonic 06 bad, though by some folks' logic we should be thankful we had a HD Sonic game at all, considering we need to be thankful we have these Switch games at all.

@RR529 Anyway, when I was in that area, its all he did. Caught a fish? Face went flying. Injured animation? Face went flying. Cutscene? Face goes.

If it's somewhat rare to trigger then it happened a lot for me.

@Ralizah The typos are errant still in this "Updated" translation.

Panic Button's Switch port has been announced, Warframe.

YS VIII is incredible. I'm VERY thankful I dont have to rely on a PS Vita to play this game now, cause frankly I just wouldn't play it at all if that was the case. Wouldn't play it on PS4 either. If it cant come with me nowadays, I'm probably not gonna play it. Every day I wake up I'm thankful for all the great games on Switch. Dang right.

@Wazeddie22
I was pretty confident it would come to Switch, but I still bought on X1 for posterity's sake. But I'm super glad I get to experience Okami HD with motion on the TV and touch on the go. That's the kinda stuff that elevates a game to legendary status

@JaxonH Ys VIII is indeed incredible (In gameplay and music) and it is a shame that this series went unloved for so long even on a huge platform like PS4.

@Grumblevolcano Well, that's disappointing.

@Knuckles-Fajita Eh. Minor typo here and there is no big deal. And, to be fair, it hasn't been completely patched yet.

I was looking for some sort of egregious visual glitch like that one you posted earlier.

Despite being only in chapter four of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 which I am enjoying greatly,I have been going a bit wild of late by preordering more Switch games that I know I won't even have time for what with trying to keep up with PS4 games too.One of these games is Ys VIII which arrived a few days ago and I'm desperate to start it but seeing all these graphical glitches I'm wondering are there any more patches coming to the game?I may hold off until it's had all its patches otherwise I may just go ahead and start it.
Just had an email to say Shining Resonance Refrain has been dispatched...and Octopath Traveller arriving next week too..oh man..

@Ralizah Well I understand the translation is better than initially released on PS4 and Vita, but the "Fixed" translation isn't exactly...good?

And yeah that visual glitch was er….I'll be honest.

I've only ever seen stuff like that when messing around with models in development software.

@Knuckles-Fajita I see it now. I think this is why Switch games don't bother me, I am awful at spotting details lol.

@link3710 That's a pretty glaring detail. Complete misalignment of an object sticks out.

Can't be that glaring of a detail cause I don't see anything either, even despite actively looking for something wrong.

@JaxonH The tree is about 5 feet off the ground. It'd be easier if it was a gif

Yeah a tree that is levitating is a bit....glaring.

While I'm not interested in Warframe, it's nice knowing there's more potential for people to be angry at Sony (I think Microsoft will have crossplay and allow you to use your XB1 saves on Switch for this game just like Fortnite).

@Grumblevolcano While Warframe doesn't have cross-play, even among the other platforms, they did give a limited time window to players when the game launched on the twins to transfer their progress from PC. And i imagine that they will do the same with the Switch. I'm interested to see how Sony will react this time around because if they just keep up the facade they've been having on the matter there's gonna be some major sh*^tstorm coming on to them.

Sony will keep it up. They're twice the amount of consoles ahead of Xbox and even more than that on any others. They think they're untouchable at the moment, but I will agree to deny something that gamers want could come back to bite them in the arse.

@SuperJoon This generation yes I agree, Sony won’t bother with cross play. They don’t even care about backwards compatible despite how much people begged and continue to do so. I mean, they couldn’t even be bothered to continue with the PS2 re-releases. And even those they did release, they had terrible performance issues in the EU versions which I don’t think ever got patched.

Next generation, they may change right at the start. Nothing like great PR publicity to kick things out the gate when launching a new console than making it seem like you’ve listened to your fans all along. It’s what they did with the PS4, they’ll do it again.

The tree just looked like it was rooted further up the hill by the cliff to me.
