Topic: The Switch Recommendations Thread

@Renon
You're welcome. 😀

Taxi Chaos is $14.99. Does anyone recommend it? Or is it too soul-less?

I'll try posting this here as this is a better thread for it anyways.

Okay, recommendation needed. I don't have any money on my account and don't feel like adding any on, so I'm limiting myself to one game from the sale that I can afford with my gold coins. I think I've narrowed it down to three. They are Far: Lone Sails, Citizens of Space, and 7 Billion Humans. Any thoughts on which to get? (And yes, I have played Citizens of Earth and all of Tomorrow Corporation's previous games and liked them all).

I picked up 'Inside' last night for $1.99 on sale and powered it up this afternoon to find probably a top 5 game I have ever played. I'm a casual gamer at best but holy-cow this game is a flat-out masterpiece. If you haven't played, get it now for pennies and you'll find a one of a kind experience.

One of a kind experience? Well, it has a unique twist, but other than that it's a cinematic puzzle platformer like its predecessor Limbo, and other games in that vein that sparked from Another World, Flashback, Heart of Darkness, Oddworld: New'n'Tasty, etc.

One of the modern games that is easily comparable and also available on Switch is Little Nightmares (1&2).

@TMNHertl

I'd agree with both your comments to some extent. I don't think it's a top 5 game in general but it's certainly a very good game, one that is rare in that it's made to an incredibly high standard. It was so unsettling and disturbing when I played it at first five years ago, and it got creepier and creepier until it came to a head near the end. The puzzles are quite intelligent and the storytelling is extremely subtle but effective, depending on your attentiveness.

It's also a natural successor to Limbo. Both share amazing sound design, puzzles and a unique style.

Okay, I'm thinking of getting the XC2 Torna expansion that's on sale now. I haven't finished the base game yet (I did put 80+ hours into it), only because I've been too busy with ACNH and other stuff. Should I still get it, then finish XC2 so I can move on to it without spoilers? Thanks for your help, guys.

Sounds like a great plan, @MarioLover92 ....

So, nobody recommends Taxi Chaos. That's funny. Not shocked.😁

@SKTTR We clearly won't see eye to eye here. Cheers and have a good one!

Can anyone explain to me what it is you actually do in Minecraft?

@BruceCM Thanks! I went ahead and got the Torna expansion on sale. It's already motivating me to finish XC2, hopefully I can do it soon.

Let us know how those go, then, please, @MarioLover92 .....

@BruceCM It's going pretty all right. I think I have to raise trust to get to the next part of the game, though.

@CactusMan Yes it does! When I got Torna, it gave me a download code for extra stuff for the base game, which I redeemed.

@ophone if you like metroidvanias then youll love it (tales of iron) i played it nonstop and 100% completed it and i loved every second of it it had a few difficult parts but it was overall a really really good game

@YusseiWarrior3000 They are all great. I wouldn't take Piranha Plant out of these only because the others give better music.
Personally i think Joker would be my favorite, since he is probably easiest to use? It depends on your playstyle though

@AegisPrime It is. No need to get snarky.

I have been trying to find a good carrying case that will let me bring not just the Switch, but the dock and all of it's accessories too.

I have narrowed it down to two:

https://www.amazon.com/Nintendo-Professional-Waterproof-Contr...

https://www.amazon.com/Zadii-Carrying-Compatible-Pokeball-Con...

I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations or opinions between these two. The first one I like that it appears to be a very sturdy case, supposedly crush-resistant and waterproof. I do wish that it didn't look so much like a toy though in appearance. Also the JoyCon Grip and Pro Controller holders are not interchangeable, you can only hold one of each, not use those slots for two of the same. Also wish it had a way for me to bring my games in their cases, not take the cards out.

The second one, I like that you can hold either JoyCons or Pro Controllers in the controller slots, and it also has a holder for my Pokeball controller, looks a lot nicer too. It also just has slots for game cards instead of having the whole case, but that zipper area on the top looks like I might be able to fit a few games with their cases in there. But I am worried how sturdy it is. It claims it's a hard case, but it doesn't seem as sturdy and definitely not waterproof like the first one is.

Anyone have any opinions between these two?

@Cyber_Akuma Looks like amazon may be blocking those thinks. They open amazon, "cant find the page".

I've never seen a case that can hold switch, dock, 2 pro controllers, joycon grip. (or is it 3 procons? I cant remember what I take when I visit family. We always play mario kart 8 multiplayer) Anyway, I end up using a shoebox, because I dont want a crazy giant case or crazy expensive case - when a shoebox does the job quite well. ...as dumb as that may sound.

@WoomyNNYes
Sorry about that, seems the links had gotten malformed somehow, I just fixed them.

And I really would not want my stuff just banging against each other in a shoebox.
