Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

@Tsurii You know how it is...there are only 5 game archetypes in the world now in the minds of some people... in the minds of some devs actually.

@Ryu_Niiyama What you mean is publishers think there are only 5 genres that sell.

I'm sorry for assuming its genre. I forgot that every game is completely unique and exists in its own little bubble within its own genre

The actually correct term is clearly SoulsBourNioh. Gosh.

@Knuckles-Fajita I know that you are a dev and thus more likely to take what I said to heart, but I've read/heard enough dev reviews that I can't just blame the suits. Don't get me wrong the suits make everything worse but younger devs seem genre confused sometimes as well. IMO as always.

@Octane you are forgiven. Please remember to respect all the little bubbles in the future. I'd draw a flow chart for you but the last time I tried to do that I tore a hole in the fabric of existence. Bomberman zero fell out of that hole... I'd rather that not happen again.

So you're all saying that Hollow Knight is not a Metroidvania, but a Soulsborne game? :^]

Just cleared the Oni Island dungeon in Okami HD! Soon I should be finding out what reason (if any) I stopped playing it way back when as my next story destination is where I dropped it on my PS2 play through for whatever reason.

Gonna go back through some previous areas first, because I've got a couple new abilities I need to use to uncover some stuff/complete sidequests.

Finally decided to play Monster Hunter Stories, and now I just want it or a new on Switch. The poor 3ds could barely handle it at times.

Ya, MH Stories really, really needs to make it's way to the Switch.

Hollow Knight is a good game right?

It’s pretty good.

By the way, when do they usually reveal stuff at Gamescom?

The videos of the past days were at 3pm and 4pm UK time. 3pm has already passed and there's no video so today's clearly different.

I think almost all announcements were made either the day before or the first day of Gamescom itself? I think we have heard all there is to hear about anything Nintendo for the time being.

Don’t be a Debby downer Frag.

PSA: today I noticed some colors didn't look right in docked mode in splatoon 2. Turn on the game picture mode with full range.

I compared docked vs undocked like 8 times and this seems to be the most accurate representation.

Can't believe I didn't notice before. The green shirt originally tipped me off.

Dude, you should have known better. Such a sell-out. Psh.

Just reached a certain point in Okami, and the only thing I can say is "Great Scott!".

EDIT: Broke down and bought Sky Gamblers: Storm Raiders (used my gold coins though, so if I don't like it I'm only down a little over a buck). And no, I'm sure the fact that there's an air show in town this weekend and planes have been flying over my house for the past few days didn't affect my decision making...

Bought hollow knight on a whim since it's on sale and I've heard good things. Can't wait to try it out

I just adore the Hollow Knight art style. Really interested to see what else their art designer has done. Every time I meet a new creature or landmark I just have to stop and screenshot everything.
