Topic: The Switch Recommendations Thread

Yeah, @jump .... It's got a good story & it's all very nicely drawn

@BruceCM Thanks but how does it play though? Is there more to it than just being a pretty story driven game or is there meat to the platforming and puzzles bits?

I thought so but then I'm not really an expert in platforming, @jump .... Thought it was pretty well received overall, though

@jump I got the demo after seeing beatemups and nintendolife say good things about Forgotton Anne. And I bought the game after playing the demo for about 15 minutes. It's very cool. Isn't there a demo? Anyway, it was a great game. It's not a hardcore platformer, but the anime art style, story, puzzles, and platforming make for a very entertaining game/story. I really hope Square Enix makes a successor to this game. So, I think this game is an easy recommendation. I loved it.

There was a tricky spot of platforming near the end, but I youtubed it, and got through it.

@WoomyNNYes @BruceCM cheers! I've ended up buying it as for the price it seems like a punt worth taking.

Hey guys I'm currently working through my backlog of games but I'm looking to buy 5-10 more JRPGs once I've finished my backlog can anyone recommend any?

I have/ played

Octopath travelers
Xenoblade 1+2
Final fantasy X
I am setsuna
Oninaki
YS origin
YS VIII
Dragon quest XI
Bravely default II

I've played/ completed most of these the only one I haven't actually played yet is dragon quest but I've enjoyed all of them so far from what I've played/ completed.so if anyone can make some recommendation based on what I've listed that would be great thanks.

@Jrpglover
The South Park games are old skool JRPG and if you like the show it's a must. These are really cheap in the sales too.
Ni no Kuni is fantastic but a little short
Fire Emblem: Three Houses is a biggie you're missing unless you're discounting it because it's a SRPG
Tales of Vesperia is a classic
Tokyo Mirage Sessions if you can stomach the pop idol stuff it's a good game
The Disgaea games are wondefully bonkers SRPGs, 5 is the best one on the Switch and 6 is coming out soon.
There's also the Atelier games but I've not played them myself.

yea I loved fire emblem 3 houses!! I forgot to put it on my list but I'll take a look at the others:)

Streets of Rogue is on deep discount on the Murican eShop.

Star Ocean First Departure as well.

Must...resist...clicking...purchase...button.

Don't resist getting Star Ocean 1st Departure R, @Magician .... That's a good game! & buying it might help remind them they're supposed to be bringing Second Evolution R, too

@BruceCM

It is...it is, no question.

But S-E has been on a streak of releasing their games physically in Southeast Asia.

I don't want to burn gold coins only to rebuy it again later.

Oh, OK, @Magician .... Maybe when 2nd Evolution R comes, they'll do a physical with both on? Not sure what size the game is on eshop but I'd imagine both should easily fit on one cart

@Jrpglover Trials of Mana is meant be good

@Magician @BruceCM never heard of Star Ocean honestly. Checked it out, noticed is SE, it's an arpg, and looks to be a remastered version of snes game? You guys sold me. I clicked purchase.

Do let us know how you get on with it, @NintendoByNature.... Tag me if you want any help with it

@BruceCM will do. It'll be a little bit. I have MH rise coming up soon.

Which will probably keep you going for quite awhile, @NintendoByNature.... Just let us know whenever you get around to it, though

@BruceCM absolutely! I'm assuming there's no thread for it, but I'll definitely find you in one of these forums and reach out should any issues arise.

I did one when it was announced, @NintendoByNature ...... https://www.nintendolife.com/forums/nintendo-switch/star_ocea...

Hyrule Warriors age of calamity or Trials of Mana.
Anyone played both, what one would recommend? 👍
