Topic: The Switch Recommendations Thread

Copying and pasting from the Ubisoft sale article because I doubt anyone will see and answer it in time...or in general. lol

Screw it, I'll ask, is Monopoly on Switch worth it? How are the CPUs? I miss this game in general but I never have anyone to play it with because it takes too long or something.

As for the video game, I heard that it's buggy, and not that great...? Also, this game DOES have CPU options, right? lol

Anyways, if it's worth it at $10, should I just go for it since we're never getting a new Fortune Street on Switch at this point? xD

...So I guess no one cares, which means that I shouldn't bother with it...? >.>
Or maybe people just don't care about me...TwT

Oh yeah, nobody cares about little @Joeynator3000 <3😉 JK. I wanted to answer, but I don't have Monopoly, because even though it looks great, I've never had the attention span for the board game.

I think the silence is because so few have Monopoly, or they are too selfish and caught up in gossip. As far as game show/family games go, I have Wheel of Fortune, Spot the Differences Party!, Jeopardy.

I wasn't expecting Jeopardy to be multiple choice, and it made it too easy, I thought. - I didn't like it. I don't know if my attitude will change. It may, some rainy day/holiday when I'm with family.

Wheel of Fortune is ok.

Spot the Differences Party! has the most hours played, but that's like 5-6 hours playtime. I play it with my nieces 13, 10, 7 year olds. I'm not sure how close we are to seeing all the pictures. I think we've seen a few pictures repeat, but each picture has like 10 differences, while playing you have to find which ever five differences they've randomly picked. There's still some life left in the game. (the other spot the difference game on eshop is garbage, it ONLY has like 30 pictures for $9.99. avoid that baloney)

I've seen @ThanosReXXX playing UNO.

@WoomyNNYes
Yeah, I figured no one cared about Monopoly at this point, I wanna play it more often because no Fortune Street. But also because I rarely have the moment to get people like family and friends to play it with me. So i figured playing with CPUs would be better, then again this is Ubisofts game and...heard that the games have issues..?

I dunno, also curious about Game Builder Garage...but, some limitations bug me...>.<

@Joeynator3000 Oh yeah, I also have Word Search by POWGI. I got that to play by myself. It's good.

This is the one I got (before the theme ones came out, but it still has decent categories,)

Here are the three Switch offerings

Eh, not a huge fan of word searches. >.<

@WoomyNNYes Huh, what? Somebody called for a UNO match?

@WoomyNNYes Thanks for bringing this to my attention!!! I'm probably gonna pick it up to hold me over till the new monkey ball.

So, I am looking for something like Sword of the Necromancer or in that genre that might be good? The reviews on SotN kinda make me not want that one in particular. Any suggestions on one's like this?

@Blooper987 Well, I got Paperball Deluxe, since it's on sale for $8.99 (reg. $17.99). Played Arcade mode for 30-40 minutes. Novice levels were fun. Music is decent. There's a charm to it. The ball has decent physics that do a good job of making the ball momentum and bounce feel like predictable paper ball. Intermediate levels, some of those got tough, especially the "Skeleton" map.

So far, the game seems well made, has charm, but I haven't tried the other modes, or the multiplayer.

@JasmineDragon have you played Null Drifter? It's a 1-bit shooter that's quite simple but I find it very enjoyable. You can find it very cheap on the eShop and I'd recommend it.

Manticore: Galaxy on Fire is on sale for $3.99 (80% off). Is it worth the time? I enjoyed Starlink a good bit. What are some of the game's pros and cons?

I'm finally back in the mood for a big RPG. I've got it narrowed down to Bravely Default II or Dragon Quest XI. I tend to prefer more traditional battle modes and a more serious and engrossing story, though some humor here and there is obviously welcome. I did see the art style of Bravely Default II and was a bit put off by it at first, but I think I can get over it if that's the game I choose. What do you guys think? Which would be the best "traditional" RPG experience to sink into for quite some time?

Galaxy Champions TV is down to $2 on the Murican eShop.

Pretty great if you want a Smash TV-like quick fix.

Recommended.

@rallydefault I'd go Dragon Quest XI, the original Bravely Default was alright, but nothing amazing.

I think both games have Demo's so you could probably give each a go.

@Wargoose
Thanks! Yea, I'm thinking DQ.

I am considering trying Ace Attorney Trilogy. I have never tried this kind of game but am incredibly curious. As someone who usually plays metroidvania's and fighting games do YOU think I should try this?

I don't know.
But something I'm sure about is the fact that peeking into other genres can be quite refreshing. In general I'm more of a platformer and race games guy.

@TMNHertl If you like a good story, you'll enjoy it.
