Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

I still think the issue regarding Dark Souls Remastered is the paid online service. Look at Monster Hunter's release date for example, it's only a few days before the earliest possible release date of the paid online service.

South Park: The Fractured But Whole
Ys VIII - June 29th
Mario + Rabbids DLC
Shining Resonance - July 10
Octopath Traveler - July 13
Monster Hunter - August 28
South Park: The Stick of Truth - September
Valkyria Chronicles 4
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 DLC
Tales of Vesperia
Pokemon

If you dont like RPGs this year is kinda dry XD

Not that there isn't other things to play but man, RPGs just descended on this system

Amazon has 400gb micro SD cards for $140 and 256gb cards for $74

400gb micro SD $139.99

256gb micro SD $73.56

@Knuckles-Fajita Why do people keep thinking Monster Hunter is an rpg? I would never classify it in such a way.

@Grumblevolcano
FighterZ releases September 28. TWEWY, however, still doesn't have a set date.

@PLATINUM7 Well the Japanese version is at September 27... Can kinda safe to assume should be near that date for the English, but who knows.

You do quests, equip and buy gear, craft things, level up, have RPG ranks and stats....last I checked that's also most of what made Ys Ys, or Xenoblade...an ARPG.

You have almost all of that in modern Call of Duty games, though. And the last Zelda game, for that matter.

Monster Hunter doesn't have a leveling system (well, not in the sense that it affects your stats, anyhow). Progression is tied to equipment upgrades and good, old-fashioned player skill. Which is what keeps it from being an RPG, imo.

I've only seen Monster Hunter in action, never played it myself.

inb4 "You cant judge or comment unless you've played it"

Well I need to make a guess as to what genre it is and its mechanics before I buy it dont I? One has to make a judgement before buying.

Guess Zelda's an RPG then.

Tbh the term "role-playing game" needs a redefinition for today's world. It's like, you can't be an RPG because you don't have levels in stats or whatever. You don't have experience points, so you're not an RPG. But you're still... role-playing as a major character in the story, so... what does that even mean?

We've strayed too far from the original definition of table-top games at this point where "RPG" means little.

I retract my earlier statement.

There are many products of an interactive media used for the purpose of mental stimulation that involves inputs from a human via a controlling device, being released in the Calendar Year 2018 AD for a hybrid device powered by a lithium ion battery that can be connected to your audio-visual output device, or be used as it's own audio-visual output device, that exist as primarily longer experiences over a longer period of time than their contemporaries in this field of interactive entertainment, by way of difficulty, mechanics, content, some of which indeed feature crossover in some respects in what humans classify as a "genre", but not all are limited to this genre nor are they wholly representative of the genre, nor are they all identical.

Apparently Action RPGs aren't RPGs? This is one of the more silly arguments that have spawned from here

Sorry I brought it up......

Dragon Ball FighterZ is getting a beta in August for Switch, also Normal Goku and Normal Vegeta will be DLC.

@Spoony_Tech To be fair I started it so...all the flak gets fired at me and rightfully so.

Like most situations...

I'm tired of being a fire-starter. :/

@Knuckles-Fajita are you a fire/fighter starter?

Because that would be tiring.

@Yosheel I'm a flaming cock(erel) alright

Oh so Blaziken then.

Back then it was cool and new being a fire/fighter.
