@JaxonH Why? Do you like using the joycon grip over a pro controller?

@JaxonH Eh, I'm OK with that, as my system came with a normal L-Joycon anyway.

Also, they'll sell a lot more of these things since they're less expensive. I wish Nintendo would officially develop a line of low-tech joycon for MP purposes anyway. They'd make a killing, especially once Smash releases.

@Blathers
Sometimes, but mostly I like using separated joycon in each hand. I use Pro Controller half the time and split joycon half the time, occasionally using the grip for games like Street Fighter.

But I really, really like split joycon.

I leave my joycon attached to the system and use a separate pair, so in theory it would at least help in handheld mode, but... then I give up motion for DOOM and Resident Evil and all these other games.

So they just announced a Smash Bros Switch Invitational and the Splatoon 2 World Championship for E3. The Smash Invitational is the day before their presentation.

Wonder if that means we'll see the game before E3. Smash Direct incoming?

Or their presentation is on a Monday for a change.

Or they are doing a Super Mario Maker with a name reveal and gameplay showcase at a tournament before giving details in the presentation afterwards...

To me it feels like it's £20 just for a D-pad that I can only use in handheld mode vs £40 for a fully featured joy-con that also happens to have a d-pad.

@subpopz
Blathers posted the original post exposing it but, confirmation is nice.

Ya know what I hate though, people who troll for kicks. I remember back in the day when deceit and treachery weren't the default state of human beings on the internet. It was never perfect but, it wasn't like it is now.

It gets sugar coated as "trolling". But it's really just intentional lies and deceit. For attention or entertainment or whatever.

It sucks.

I thought the "leak" by target was also ambiguous, and probably took inspiration from the first "leak" by B4DASS.

Is this wrong? Do we now have solid evidence for the title?

@gcunit It's fun to discuss it though! Even if it is obviously fake, some of the game ideas on it were worth discussing.

Hopefully it works out well. After seeing ARK of all games get a port announced, I feel like Wolfenstein could make the jump fairly ok.

Metroid, Xenoblade, EarthBound shill

I run a YouTube/Twitch channel for fun. Check me out if you want to!

Please let me know before you send me a FC request, thanks.

Apologies if this has already been posted, but...

UNSURPRISING NEWS ALERT!

Cyberpunk 2077 ... [drumroll] ... [/drumroll] ...all but ruled out for Nintendo Switch ()

From IGN:

"When asked about the success of the Switch, and if that afected the platforms CD Projekt is targeting, Kiciński all but ruled out a version of Cyberpunk for Nintendo's console:

"When talking about our larger games, we are focusing on the strongest devices out there, the high-spec PCs and consoles... We don't plan Nintendo Switch releases for now"."

...as my Grandad used to say: "first there was slim hope, then there was Bob Hope - now there is no hope!"

Ah well, I think we all knew deep down that this one would be a long shot...

I wouldn't mind taking a Witcher 3 port, tho

@NaviAndMii I guess that rules out a 3DS port, huh? :/

I should take to twitter, and inform them that they're lazy, because if DOOM can run on the Switch, then Cyberpunk 2077 TOTALLY can as well, right?

@MisterPi
Yea - I still haven't played it. I bet they could get it running on some bare-bones settings.

I was kinda turned off on the Witcher series from the first game, though. I mean - anybody remember that game? Remember the combat system and controls? Holy cow was that unintuitive and janky as anything. I mean, yea, the story is obviously cool and the interactions and the depth and stuff, but the actual action parts of the game just left me so frustrated.

And they got the message, because Witcher 2's combat system was totally different and pretty similar to what you get in Witcher 3 and most action-RPGs these days.

@MisterPi @rallydefault Oh man, I'd be all over a Witcher 3 port if we got one! That'd be superb!

@Ralizah I'm building an effigy of that Cyberpunk lady from the announcement trailer as we speak... () ...how dare you guys dash my unrealistic dreams like this! ..shame on you CD Project Red - shame. on. you!

@rallydefault I actually tried playing through the first one to follow the story up until I could play the third, and... yeah, unfortunately I couldn't get a handle on the gameplay. I'll probably skip to the third once I have the time!

At this point I hope that Cyberpunk is a next gen game. After seeing TW3 at launch, every current console will explode trying to run Cyberpunk.

JaxonH

Finally get to see Wolfenstein 2 running...

Hope motion is in at launch. Either way I'm getting it day one.
