Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

It’s preordered and comes with a 12 months subscription. I just hope it has a long time limit on redeeming the sub as mine has over half a year left running.

Got it from game uk as they give you all the goodies from Nintendo uk but cheaper

Looking at the list, it seems every retail Nintendo published game is eligible (that includes 3rd party stuff like TWEWY and DQ Builders).

@subpopz thanks for the quick reply. At the moment I have a family subscription which covers me and my family so this is not really good to me but a good bonus to gift someone

@OldMan64 Hmm, before you take it apart, check out the “Discovery” part of the software. There’s little books that tell you how stuff works, and I know the other kits had a part about repairing or troubleshooting. Could be as simple as a rubber band attached weird 😁
If you’re trying to turn on a docked Switch with the Pro controller, just hold the “Home” button on the controller. Hope that’s what you needed.

Hm. The vouchers are 120 dollars in Mexico.

On a less positive note, Castlevania Anniversary Collection doesn't seem to be a midnight launch.

@Grumblevolcano yea that blows. I wouldve loved to have it ready before work tomorrow morning

Um, any reason why the Super Famicom logo faded in and faded out within 2 seconds in the MM2 Direct?

@AlohaPizzaJack My guess is the music would change to Super Mario Kart's Mario Circuit whenever you get in the car.

@Grumblevolcano Ah. I was leaning towards it involving Mario Kart, yeah.

Overall it looks pretty neat. I’m happy for y’all that are looking forward to it. It doesn’t really interest me though, and I’m still slowly picking at NSMBUDx

Doesn’t Assassins Creed 3 Remastered + Assassin’s Creed 3 Liberation release like... Tuesday?

Still no eShop listing. Zero news or updates coming from Ubisoft. It’s like they want to keep it a secret or something. Release a game and try to keep as many people as possible from knowing about it!

Same for Resident Evils. They all release on Tuesday and we still have no update on motion controls or other news regarding the releases. Wth is going on

@JaxonH

Thats odd. AC3 has been on the Aus store for months now. But, we still cant preorder.

Im suprised capcom isn't offering a discount off one game if you buy the other re game

I really hope Astral Chain and Daemon X Machina are included in those vouchers. Since Octopath Traveler is part of it, I'm definitely thinking they will be a part of it.

Definitely will be picking up Super Mario Maker 2, Fire Emblem, Daemon X Machina, and Astral Chain with those vouchers. I'm loving EVERYTHING I see about Mario Maker, but damn I also can't afford to play it and overtake the rest of my backlog. I still got games to play... ugh.

Edit: Just checked the eShop. Astral Chain, Fire Emblem, and Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 will all be supported! Good deal. Now to hope Daemon X Machina will be included.

@EvilLucario
Mario Maker 2
Astral Chain
Fire Emblem
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3

All included, with more future eligible titles on the way (and all 4 now listed on US eShop, btw)

Fire Emblem is so hype. Favorite game series of all time right next to Monster Hunter and Final Fantasy (and I suppose Metroid and Zelda). Words cannot express the emotional rollercoaster I experienced when playing Fire Emblem Awakening and being introduced to the franchise for my first time. I became obsessed with the series ever since.

Fire Emblem. That series is so gosh dang good. July 27th can’t come quick enough!

New Astral Chain art on the Japanese eShop!

Bro, this is ****ing awesome. I cannot wait.

@EvilLucario I'm all in on astral chain

Yeah, Super Mario Maker, Fire Emblem Three Houses, and Astral Chain all have pages on the NA & JP eShops (Astral Chain has a different set of screenshots on each shop, to boot). The NA shop also has a page for Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 as well.

So, AI: The Somnium Files was delayed until September, which means it's no longer directly competing with Fire Emblem.

Now it's going to compete with many big triple a titles releasing in the fall. Yikes.
