Switch Scrapper Brawlout Is Getting A Physical Release

Nintendo! TAKE NOTICE! People want Smash type games, hint hint

Friend of mine is really into this game. I'll have to add it to my wishlist.

Have the performance issues been fixed already?

Annnnnnd this is exactly why I haven't got this one. I've almost completely stopped worrying about digital downloads. I got got more than once since the Switch launched....So now I wait.

This game is a work in progress. Will it be the finished article by May?

And those performance issues? They fixed those first right?

I’d prefer Smash instead, personally. Also, this is why I’ve stopped downloading games until I know if there will be a physical release. Still salty about Rocket League (mostly because I don’t care for it as much as I thought I would and could sell the physical copy).

This game always seemed interesting but too poorly executed for me to want. Like it could have been a lot better, when I saw it the stages just felt boring and lifeless and the game seems lacking in general. That, and I hate how much of a grind it seems to be to unlock anything, especially in a game with so little to offer.

@Bunkerneath It hasn't even been a year for Switch yet, just be patience. It'll come. It took Super Smash Bros. Brawl a year and a half to released on Wii and Super Smash Bros. 4 two years to come out for Wii U so don't be surprised if a new Super Smash Bros. isn't out til 2019 or so.

Cool. I wonder if any of the issues you guys mentioned in your review will be addressed before flashing the game to carts. Not likely I know but, here's hoping.

@Bunkerneath Oh believe me, they know. It's more a case of convincing Sakurai to work on another so soon, or finding someone who Sakurai is willing to hand the series over to.

this is one of the few games that I wouldve preferred paid DLC for characters since it's a huge pain to unlock them

Good thing I waited. Now I can add this to GameFly soon and see if I truly want to be bothered with it at all.

Nice game while waiting for smash, altough online can get way too laggy sometimes. And is a grinding pain to unlock every character (or skin?). Wish we get more characters soon.

Terrible game, with a ton of technical flaws and barely any content, most of which is locked behind an insane grinding wall. As a huge smash fan, I was desperate to like this game, and thought it would be a decent substitute, but finally had to admit how terrible it is. All unlockables are basically skins, as are the stages. Online is utterly unplayable because of the lag. Stages are basic and boring, and so many aspects seem thrown together with little testing or thought. And it just isn't..fun. Oh, and where's that patch we've been promised now for over a month? Nowhere to be seen. But yeah, this is what we need, a physical release for this less than mediocre game.

Got it digitally already, would of waited if knew a physical game was coming but ya know, very bad habits going on with these attempts for double dippers.

Game is pretty average and lacks a lot of what made Smash fun.

The game is good for laughs between friends an relatives, but is, I feel, unbalanced, with the Drifter being OP. It's an OK game, but definitely not a suitable Smash replacement. It's still good, though.

The patch is just waiting approval and due this week (according to devs)

Nah, I'll just wait for the real thing. I'm Smash-hungry but patient enough to not buy a cheap clone that lacks what makes Smash worth it

I got Pokken Tournament DX as my go to fighting title on my Nintendo Switch and so so glad I did cause Pokken Tournament DX simply ROCKS and I have been playing it daily might try this one someday if they fix issues and add more content, maybe.

@mj2k18 This x100. I abused a glitch to get all "Characters" because the grinding was just too much. I just wanted a fun multiplayer game for a couple of fun evenings, so I wanted all characters. Not a single one of them is an original character, just a skin. Never touched the game again after that farce.

@Burger_Broeders Yup. My brother did hours of grinding just so that he can unlock a stage that he can't even access (because of a bug) and characters that are 100% skins. After I saw that, I lost all motivation. To me, this game needs a whole lot more than a patch. The fights are just fundamentally unsatisfying to me. And so many aspects just scream laziness, like what happens when you win/lose a match. They couldn't even be bothered to make victory or loss poses. The lack of attention to details adds up.
