Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

That's a fun little surprise. Maybe we'll get some more substantial content later on after all

@Tasuki, thanks for the input!

I decided to add the Striker Pack & Mighty Gunvolt Burst to my physical & digital lotteries respectively (since there are so many Switch games out that I'm interested in, I put my purchases in the hands of a random draw, so I don't constantly get sucked up into release hype and perpetually ignore older releases).

Since I just completed YS VIII I just held my first draw and drew Gal Gun 2, so it looks like that'll be my next retail purchase.

Wish I could get back to YS VIII.

But Octopath Traveller has all 8 suckered tentacles firmly wrapped around my took-as and doesn't seem to be letting go.

@JaxonH Same here, I only wish I had more time to play it.

@Aozz101x Makes sense, Mario Kart 8 having the Master Cycle is the reason the Master Cycle Zero exists in BotW.

Rollercoaster Tycoon Adventures is coming at the end of this year on the Switch. The game is a new game en developed by NVizzio. Don't know what to think about it. They also developed Touch and that was not a game I liked.
I really hope that the game is based on the first two games of the Rollercoaster Tycoon series.

@Snadertjuh Anything after 3 was either crap or a simple cash grab. Atari has no intention of making a proper game it seems, and the only reason they're trying it on Switch is because most Switch games seem to sell regardless of quality, especially those with a big name behind it. Get the classics on GOG or Steam, they're still good games.

Yeah, Chris Sawyer was the mind behind RCT. Once he left it, it really wasn't RCT anymore at all....you can't keep a series made by the master of sims going once the master leaves.

@Octane Atari released poor quality cash grabs? Say it an't so! I can't believe the company who I trusted for solid classics like E.T. so many years ago has turned to such a sad state. How the mighty have fallen.

Funny we're talking about RollerCoaster Tycoon when I just loaded up the first game again last night. Ah man, I love/d RollerCoaster Tycoon. Back in middle school, I had this huge park that had intracate sky-walkways, rollercoasters that started above ground and could go all the way down underground... that was so cool.

After re-reading some reviews I decided that I didn't really want Gal Gun 2 (it was the only game on the list I was somewhat hesitant to include in the first place), so I drew again and got Captain Toad, so I just ordered it.

At least I saved myself a few bucks.

Why is Atari even making a new RCT for the Switch? I imagine RCT 1-3 would be way more profitable.

Finally got around to reviewing Ys VIII.

Whew.

@Mrtoad RCT 1-3 don't have micro-transactions.

@Knuckles-Fajita I've got the game but since I am focusing on Octopath Traveler right now, won't be playing Ys VIII for a good long while. But I do want to play it.

@Knuckles-Fajita Wow, you're so positive in your review!

@Mrtoad a better question is, why not on their new console "Atari VCS"?

@Ralizah I do have moments of positivity you know

ooo, im liking what im seeing for the new digimon. this might be the first time you have (what i've assumed from the screenshot) is choices in digimon.

also, a live stream will begin on July 28, 2018 3am PT / 6am ET. but from the small screenshots. im quite interested in this.

Has Legendary Eleven been patched yet?? Very interested in purchasing but heard a lot of complaints from buyers.

My weekend in Switch playtime:

• Cleared the post game dungeon in Ys VIII.
• Cleared 14 of the 15 DLC missions in Assault Gunners HD Edition.
• Tried out BotW Link in MK8D for the first time since the update.
• Played an unhealthy amount of the Taiko no Tatsujin demo (I think I'm addicted, lol).
