Did anyone here buy Soccer Slammers? I was playing some two-player matches yesterday and was having a problem in that when a goal was scored, the scoring team would sometimes be placed in the wrong half at the kick-off. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Only thing I'm buying for the Switch this year is Smash. Might get something like Golf Story, but I doubt it. Too much I want to play on PS4.

@OorWullie As of 3 days ago i was certain that Metroid Prime 4 was a late 2019 title with a small chance of it being 2020(never thought for a second it would be 2018 and never understood why some ppl believed so). Now after this year's E3 i'm leaning more towards the 2020 scenario.

I plan to get Super Smash Bros Ultimate and Okami HD.

I haven't played Okami before, so that'll be my first experience.

I'm hoping next year is more exciting. SSBU is the only actual Switch exclusive that has interested me all year.

@Ralizah I have to agree about Captain Toad it just oozes laid back charm. Not sure I'll pick it up again as I did finish it and don't think the little extra content justifies a second purchase, however, I do think it is much better suited to the Switch as its bite sized diorama levels are prefect for pick up and play for twenty minutes on daily commutes so hope it finds a good audience on Switch.

@AlternateButtons With portable batteries, the cord you use is the important thing. Read this: https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/04/nintendo_has_detaile...

Basically, just be sure to buy a good quality cord for use with your Switch. Anker puts out good accessories, for example.

@bluemage1989 Yeah, I agree, Captain Toad is a PERFECT Switch game. But I don't think there will be enough extra content to justify repurchasing it.

I've got too many 2018 Switch games preordered to list, so I'll stick to the ones I'm most excited about.

Mario Tennis Aces (game is going to be a classic)
Octopath Traveller (most unique throwback JRPG in a decade)
Valkyria Chronicles 4 (one of the best SRPG series ever, and on a hybrid system too? Deal me in)
Shining Resonance (demo is excellent, somehow looks almost as good visually as Tales on PS4)
Tales of Vesperia (one of the all time JRPG greats, yet another top tier JRPG joining the hybrid lineup)
Monster Hunter Gen Ultimate (HD portable Monster Hunter, nuff said)
Okami HD (held off other versions waiting for Switch, and that decision is now paying dividends)
Dark Souls Remastered (it's freaking Dark Souls, in HD on a portable, with game suspend... hype)
The World Ends With You (one of the all time greats, yet again added to the hybrid RPG library)
Dragonball Fighter Z (I knew it was coming- and not a single ounce of compromise either)
Captain Toad (I'm a simple man- give me this over Mario 3D World any day)
Super Smash Bros (truly the ultimate Smash, and now we can play against anyone, anywhere, anytime)
Wolfenstein 2 (one of my fave FPS games I've ever played, now with motion and playable anywhere!)
Mega Man 11 (thank God for Switch- this game is never leaving my side for the rest of my natural life)
Mega Man X Collection _(its Mega Man X... in HD... on a handheld... Exactly. Let's move on)
Y's VIII (did I mention the all star hybrid RPG lineup?)
Starlink (the Starfox game I've been waiting on for years- this game really does look amazing)
SNK Heroines (definitely my style of fighting game- all women, not overly complex, still lots of depth)
Trials Rising (because, well... I love Trials)
Pokémon Let's Go (the first Pokémon game to ever truly excite me)
Team Sonic Racing (along with Mario Kart 8, the two best cart racers playable anywhere with anyone)

Of course, I'm also getting V-Rally, Pillars of Eternity 2, Crash Bandicoot Trilogy, SNK Collection, My Hero One's Justice, Ark Survival Evolved, PixArk, Victor Vran, De Blob, Titan Quest, Little Dragons Cafe, Code of Princess, etc.

And there's 2 or 3 PS4 games I'll grab this year, and 2 or 3 X1 games.

Like @JaxonH, I have way too many games to list. But I'm going to list my top 5:

Smash Ultimate
Ys VIII
Mega Man 11
Starlink
Pokemon Let's Go

Yeah, when people say 2018 looks weak for Switch games, I couldn't disagree more. I probably won't catch up to the remaining 2018 games until 2020.

@JaxonH
Just curious.
With so many games you want to buy, it will cost approximate more than $ 600.
Where did you get a lot of money to buy those games ?
My salary every month just enough to buy 3 - 4 games.

Rhythm gonna hit your head.

Anti-Matter

Anyway...
My Switch purchases.

1. Yonder the Cloud Catcher Chronicles
2. Mario Tennis Aces
3. Penguin Wars
4. Go Vacation
5. Overcooked 2

Rhythm gonna hit your head.

OK, so here's my list. There should be more games in the first category, but alas I have a combination of financial limits and an unbearably huge backlog to thank. Oh well, at the end of the day I really can't see how people can claim that the Switch isn't getting notable games this year.

Oh yeah, I'm definitely getting...
1. Mario Tennis Aces
2. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

I've already pre-ordered these two, so for sure I'm getting them on their respective release dates.

Maybe not day one, but I have my eyes on...
1. Octopath Traveller
2. Team Sonic Racing (I'm really hyped for this one, actually)
3. Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy
4. Mega Man 11
5. Okami HD
6. Dragon Ball FighterZ (if it's an easy to play but hard to master kind of thing, then yes. I'm very interested)
7. Pokemon Let's Go Eevee
8. Starlink: Battle For Atlas
9. Super Mario Party

Yep, I'm definitely putting a couple of games in the second category on my Christmas list, alongside Spiderman, God of War, and maybe Detroit: Become Human.

Despite the ho-hum E3 conferences, I'm actually very happy with the lineup for the rest of the year across multiple platforms.

God first.

Hey everyone, I just started using my Switch and I have a question I'd appreciate if you all could answer. How is the WiFi connection range for your Switch? Is it similar to another game console's (such as a Wii U) or your smartphone's? In other words, if there are 3 bars on the smartphone/game console, is the Switch also showing 3 bars or does it show less than 3? My iPhone X and my Wii U show 3 bars while my Switch (in the same area as the other two) fluctuates from 0 to 2 bars, which has gotten me kicked out of the majority of Splatoon 2 online matches I played so far.

Is my Switch defective, or is this something that is a problem with all Switches?

EvilLucario

@shadow-wolf The Wi-Fi chip in the Switch is notoriously weak. Don't worry about it.

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.

@EvilLucario So this is a common problem? The strange thing is that I got my Switch in April 2018. You'd think after a year they'd fix any issues with the WiFi chip.

Oh wow, I totally forgot about Team Sonic
Racing. Either that game or Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu will have to go on my Xmas list most likely.
