Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

@Magician
Yup, it’s a classic. I got introduced with Lumines on Vita, but I know many started on PSP. Switch is a natural fit. The only thing missing was the physical release, which has now been rectified.

Super Robot Wars T, btw, is very well done on Switch. Full 1080p docked / 720p handheld and very smooth animations in menus and what not. Just feels very high-quality. For any who are curious.

Anyone else notice that the patch for Saints Row also fixed the issue with blank faces? Now if characters say something outside cutscenes, their mouths finally move again.

But there’s a weird overlay problem I’ve noticed on docked. Hopefully they actually check the feedback about errors.

Oh no... NIS is one of the most avid localizer and porter (no matter how bad it was, and it was still decently good...). Hope they'll be fine

Switch version of TSR seems to have a more consistent FPS than the PS4 PRO version:

Sounds like Capcom phoned in those overpriced RE ports

I mean, I personally didn't care about gyro controls for it, but I know alot people did so that stinks for them. I never really played 4 so it's not like I'll know what I'm missing out on when I eventually play it without gyro

I kinda regret buying RE4 on PC. Should have just bought it on the Wii U.

@darkfenrir Damn,that isant good! I for one have always enjoyed their games and sometimes pre order from their site.But this looks like their future could be in doubt..

Welp, guess I won't be buying RE4 on the switch then.

Maybe on Xbox next time it goes on sale.

I knew RE4 wasn’t gonna have them because they would’ve been advertising that fact beforehand.

Lame. At least it’s console/handheld, so it’s still better than any other version. But it would’ve been so much better. It’s like they have a different studio doing these games who doesn’t understand what Switch gamers want.

Sonic Transformed at rock solid 30 doesn’t suprise me. What kills me though is all the comments the other day saying how bad the Switch framerate “drops” were, lo and behold they didn’t have a freaking clue what they were talking about. In the future, anytime somebody tries to say some game is going to have horrible frame rate because of PS4 blah blah blah blah I’m gonna bring up this game.

Well some games come with surprise motion controls, and Capcom usually just adds them to their over the shoulder RE games in Nintendo consoles. There were good chances for them.

But well, I guess modifying these roms wasn't worth the trouble to them.

Not that i used them but they had motion controls in revelations on switch from my I remember

@JaxonH What's funny to me on the framerate issue is how you only really hear concern trolling about it if the Switch version runs at a lower framerate than the base PS4 version.

If a game just happens to run at a lower but very playable framerate on the Switch? It's "inferior and unplayable."

Point out occasions where a game only runs at a higher framerate on PC, like The Witcher 3? Suddenly it's: "Oh, I don't care, PC is irrelevant anyways."

CTR is probably going to run at 30fps on the base PS4 and Xbone, but you likely won't hear a bunch of comments about how inferior and terrible it is.

Getting sony and nintendo on Azure would be a big get.

That’s about as revealing as saying Nintendo uses Office 365. Azure is the web infrastructure service, not gaming division.

This just in, Nintendo uses Macs. Does this mean they'll make games for Apple Arcade?

Or does the fact they can use middleware like UE4 mean Epic owns them?

Find out in this hot new YouTube video brought to you by the fine folks at Eurogamer, who also brought you such hits as "Pokemon Stars exists we swear" and "StarFox Racing game".

@Knuckles-Fajita For real. It’s all about the Benjaclicks, baby.

@HobbitGamer Just remember to be vague so you can backpeddle.

Pokemon Stars was just internal engine testing guys...we swear...that way you cant verify. ;p

@Knuckles-Fajita ah gamers -rolles eyes-

@WebHead Hardly much of a gamer these days sadly Jobs
