Topic: The Switch Recommendations Thread

@FishyS oooh oki ty !!!! this is def gonna be helpful in the future when ive heard of dekudeals it always sounds sus haha 😅 i was honestly thinking about jumping on the suika game train cause im one of the only gamers not to get it :3

@OctolingKing13 Suika Game is great! I've put like 40 hours into it. 😆 I suggest getting the basic game first and only getting the online DLC if you decide you like the base game.

And yeah, the name dekudeals sounds sus, but I honestly don't even know how or if that website even makes money; I've only ever used it to list and search games and eShop sales. Edit: I just looked and it says 'This site uses affiliate links and earns a commission from certain links. This does not affect your purchases or the price you may pay.' So, yeah, zero effect if you are just going to use it to search.

How is PowerWash Simulator? It seems like something I'd like and it's kinda tempting at its current sale price, but idk. I've heard mixed things.

Can't decide if I should go with splintered fate, or NWC. I'm sure I'll get more mileage out of splintered fate, but I could also see myself sinking some time into NWC.

Not a political statement, but I unironically enjoyed Democracy 4. It’s not perfect but it’s at least unbiased.

For those who are playing NES:WC what’s the easiest game to start speedrunning?

@Overzeal i would say either bottom rung (donkey kong) or inhale without fail (kirbys adventure) :33333

Is there any reason to play the first Cattails, or would you recommend just going straight to Wildwood Story?

That new Bakeru demo is entertaining. Be sure to select the different game levels/modes. The regular brawler is entertaining, the robot fighting is great. The shooter is surprisingly difficult.

I just recently picked up a $35.00 Nintendo Eshop card any suggestions for what games I should consider getting? I was thinking about the Witcher. Because it’s on sale for 1 day yet. You can see the games I have under my profile.

@Atomic77 I would suggest looking into:
Pikmin 1 or 2: Both of them are very good for different reasons, but I would suggest getting them both for $50 instead of just getting one for $30 each. If I were to suggest just one, I would say get Pikmin 2.
Sonic Mania: This one is great sonic fun and is well worth the $19.99.
Stardew Valley: I'm sure you have already heard all about it, but it really is so fun if you're into getting super engaged with a game.
The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe: This one is a game I believe everyone should play. It is an experience like no other and is great to replay.

There are some great games on deep sales right now:

SteamWorld Dig 2 is 90% off at $2
Immortals Fenyx Rising is 80% off at $8.
Cris Tales is 90% off at $4.
Surprisingly Braid Anniversary is already 66% off at $7 (I'm going to pick that up).
New Super Lucky's Take is 70% off at $9.

The normal Edition of Witcher 3 is 60% off for $16 so you could grab that plus 3 of the above. There are other sales too of course, those were just some especially good ones I noticed.

Last night I grabbed The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt Complete Edition $23.99 that leaves me with $11.00 to get another title if I wanted.

I just nabbed Cobra Kai 2 Dojos Rising for $5.99

Goblin Sword is a fun 16 bit side scroller that's on sale for 1.99. 80 on metacritic. You unlock armor and weapons with abilities.

Also Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair is 2.99 - 82 on meta critic.

I don't recommend mythforce. I really wanted to like the game, but it's a tech demo with a cool art style. The combat feels awful, the levels are flat and boring, there's like 3 enemies just repeated. If it was free I still wouldn't play it.

Does anyone know if the wishlist feature has a cap? I know that the PS Store does, and it will tell you if you hit it and you'll need to remove games to be able to add more.

I believe the cap is 389. It used to be 200 and a lot of people hit the cap and some years back Nintendo increased it... no idea why they increased it to 389 rather than 400.

@FishyS oh good to know. Thanks. I'm getting pretty stacked, but I don't think I'm quite that high yet lol. Does it tell you if you hit the cap?

@NeonPizza I couldn't believe how laborious the Pikmin 4 demo was. I guess they felt very concerned with onboarding new players. I've heard that the game picks up though. Have you played Metroid Prime for Switch? I assume the gyro controls are basically the same coding. But I've also heard that the controls in this case are really good.

@Gryffin I forget the exact message, but it definitely tells you if you try to add a game to an already-full wishlist.

@FishyS do you know if there's a way to import my switch wishlist into Deku Deals?
