Huh. A BAtman Arkham Collection...neat.

Not for Switch though. Less neat. The Arkham games would have no issue.

@Knuckles-Fajita Isn't it essentially a repeat of the Dark Souls situation where no Switch version because the collection on other platforms is just a repackaging of games already on the system?

@Grumblevolcano Only WB games on Switch are LEGO.

It's weird. Wii U got better support from EA, Activision etc early on. Switch gets less from them and more from more out there devs

@Knuckles-Fajita Timing is probably a factor:

Wii U - More powerful than the current gen (PS3/360), released a year before next gen
Switch - Less powerful than the current gen (PS4/XB1), released 3.5 years into current gen

If you look back to Wii U, apart from Ubisoft the support mostly stopped after the next gen launch window (PS4/XB1).

Looking ahead to PS5/Scarlett, the main thing to watch will be Sony's arrogance. I'd imagine their comments from last week already burned some bridges with developers.

@Grumblevolcano Japanese developers in particular. Nintendo already takes publishing costs for a lot of those guys, Square mostly, so seeing these comments must be disheartening.

Nothing screams "They'll do it because PS4 sold" like seeing that same thing happen with PS3. And Wii U.

@Galarian_Lassie I forgot that came out. Silly me.

Honestly I don't see why, with maybe the exception of Arkham Knight, the Arkham games can't be on Switch.

City managed on Wii U, and Asylum...well that can run on anything at this point.

I hope online Mario Maker 2 gets fixed, the lag is worse than Brawl.

@Grumblevolcano
Isn’t lag due to the other players? You really can’t fix someone having crap internet. Although I suppose they could have a system where players report laggy matches, and it wouldn’t take long before an automated system could use statistics to identify which players are a repeated and consistent problem, then segregate them with a message explaining they have a 72 hr “ban” from online, after which they will be given another chance. If they continually have issues they’ll never get more than half a dozen matches before they get another 72 hour, significantly reducing the number of contaminated matches in the pool at any given time.

Is there a calendar list anywhere for upcoming releases in the US for switch games both physical and digital?

I try to maintain a list of upcoming physical releases.

https://www.nintendolife.com/forums/nintendo-switch/switch_ph...

But across physical and digital? You're better off checking Wikipedia. The Switch eShop has had over thirty games added in a single week here and there. The problem now is separating the good games from the shovelware. And price isn't necessarily the best indicator of quality.

Switch Physical Collection - 1,251 games (as of April 24th, 2024)

A nice, short review of What Remains of Edith Finch, which I haven’t really heard anyone talking about despite the game winning tons of awards.

I'm going on a trip in a week and I need a powerbank that's 50 or under. Any recommendations?

I don't like Monster Hunter.

@IceClimbers
Updated (except Spongebob- I try to keep my list curated and have to draw the line somewhere, otherwise it would balloon into 1000 different games, so stuff like Just Dance usually doesn’t get mentioned).

Everything else has been updated and thank you- it’s incredibly hard to keep such a massive list up-to-date

There's not a whole lot to talk about when it comes to Edith Finch. As a gameplay experience, it's shallow at best, and actively irritating at worst. As a story, it's underdeveloped and disappointing.

It's pretentious art house rubbish, but without even the redeeming value of something like Gone Home, which was innovative in terms of how it tried to tell its story. There is no real innovation here.

There are a handful of decent sequences in the game, but I'd have been angry if I paid anywhere near full price for it. As a PS+ freebie, it's fine.

[/opinions], of course.
