Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

@Therad especially expect that to continue after publically announcing that MP4 is rebooted from scratch.

Cannot wait for this game. The roster is pretty big at this point, much bigger than the previous games.

^my summer is so ruined. This is why I am on a gaming restriction until July. I'll never pass my certs otherwise.

Some of the designs are interesting though. Did Beast revert back and I missed it? Otherwise he looks weird. (by weird I mean not his second mutation design which last I checked is still current.)

I kinda get the feeling we might see a repeat of last year's E3 Direct, and no I don't mean another 20 minute segment talking about miniscule changes like they did with Smash.

Last year they gave Hollow Knight and Killer Queen Black their own segments while bigger third party titles - DB FighterZ in particular - were barely a passing mention in a sizzle reel. A lot of people complained about that.

I can see that happening again with Cadence of Hyrule getting its own segment while the likes of Wolfenstein Youngblood and Doom Eternal get tossed into a sizzle reel with a bunch of ports of older titles.

That's generally the best way to hold things, so I'm glad Nintendo has mastered this

Well, they could have kept them face up on the table...

@IceClimbers - Speaking of more E3 stuffs, now that Dauntless is live on PS4 and Xbone I wonder how much longer we'll have to wait for the Switch port? E3 seems like a prime opportunity to build some hype.

Hey guys,

Thanks heaps for your input

I don't expect Nintendo to announce any hardware at E3. It's the time between now, and just after they could announce something on their own platforms.

However they're still getting good sales numbers on current hardware so there's certainly no rush for them to push anything out.

@IceClimbers Jeez, those are some good additions. Surprised and pleased at Psylocke's inclusion over Jean Grey or Emma Frost (I mean I'd have loved all three but if I had to choose). Hopefully, Juggernaut is playable too. Still, with them casually dropping another 9(?) characters in a trailer on Twitter, I'm hoping we've got even more on the way. There are some deep cuts I'd really like to make it in, plus we're still missing some major players (I could see the next trailer focusing on Fantastic Four members, the core 4 + She-Hulk, Scott Lang, and possibly Franklin or Valeria)

@Ryu_Niiyama
I thought that was Nightcrawler, not Beast.

edit
Wait, I see Beast at the end. It’s too far away and quick to tell for me though. Just looks like Beast

Nightcrawler early on ans beast at the end

@JaxonH you can see Beast during the sentinel lock on and Wolverine tackling him to safety. Totally old school design. Not the current version or the feline version. I’m not complaining just hoping for skins.

In a fantasy world the copyright holders would be awesome and release a collection with the whole franchise (including xmen legends...which I prefer)

Seems another Sword Art Online game has been announced- Fatal Bullet.

@JaxonH Wasn't that already announced?

@JaxonH @NEStalgia

Yeah, Fatal Bullet coming to Switch was reported by gematsu in December last year.

@NEStalgia
I thought just Hollow Realization was announced, but apparently they mentioned both.

Thinking about getting the Castlevania Collection.... Anyone recommend that?

@BruceCM do it

Finally got the Switch version of Team Sonic Racing (got XB1 digital at launch and Switch physical today). Played a few online matches and while XB1 has better frame rate, Switch seems to be more stable.
