Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

@Joeynator3000 Oh that's mean. Now I want XCHD on Switch...badly. But hey...why not both?

I'd sell a kidney for X.

I wouldn't buy X again it was released for a special MyNintendo price of 100 gold coins plus 20 quid cash. Straight swap for gold coins and I may consider it. Xenoblade Chronicles HD however, that's a different story.

XCX port meanwhile XC comes via Nintendo's VC replacement for Switch.

I'd probably double dip on XCX just to choose another class/faction and use different party members. I feel like too many people skipped out on such a fantastic game(maybe the weakest in the Xenoblade series, but still).

@Grumblevolcano Xenoblade needs a proper HD remaster. That game is too good to have such bad graphics lol.

Anyone waiting for Hollow Knight? I'm trying out more Metroidvanias soon to get ready for it.

X is still my favourite in the series solely because the gameplay focus suits me more than the story focus of 1 and 2.

Plus I think the way combat works is far more rewarding than the stand still and chain button presses together while neutering the basis of arts of XC2.

I still haven't touched much of that game and I doubt I ever will.

@Caldorosso-E Me! Can't wait for it even though I know I'll suck in the fight lol xD

Xenoblade was boring, X looked empty, dull and had ugly faces, didn't even buy the game. 2 looked better, then it had weird furry swords in bikinis. I ran and I never looked back...

Fine by me, lol. I feel like X will happen anyways with all these Wii U port announcements happening. xD

@DarthNocturnal
Anyone who's hacked systems knows it's not as simple as packaging a new ROM, even if an emulator is being used.

Games will usually run 90% good enough without any work but it's getting that last 10% that tends to be the issue, and we all know when you buy a virtual console game it's 100%

@Joeynator3000 I'd also pay $100 for a Xenoblade 1 remaster/port. Though, it's my least favorite one because the side content was absolutely trash and not fun. Xenoblade X and 2 have those moments too, but Xenoblade 1 was the worst of it. Nearly every single piece of side content in Xenoblade 1 was terrible.

This is untrue, if 90% because of Xenoblade's great world design and combat. (I might agree if they were in a game without those two things tbh)

Aside from one mission, they weren't that bad...a lot of the missions in X were just annoying, especially the material ones. Only one I had issues with in the original game was getting this one boss to spawn, apparently it only shows up...in the morning/day during sunny weather or something. (even though you fought him inside a cave or something, lol)

I felt the only bad side quest in Xenoblade 2 was Ursula's as getting the vocals/looks/soul stamps were just downright annoying. Maybe it wouldn't have been so bad if I still had main story content left but all I had left for stuff to do at that point was grinding trust with pouch items, Blade side quests and superbosses.

@Grumblevolcano I agree that one is soooo bad, but I tend to leave merc by letting them running on the background anyway, so I don't mind it as much (and luckily got her very, very early in the game too)

Mystery solved

cant wait to play NES games with online support!
