Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

August's NES games are Vice: Project Doom and Kung-Fu Heroes.

I'm starting to have doubts SNES is September or rather at the least that August isn't the last month of NES games.

@Grumblevolcano Geez, they're really scraping the bottom of the barrel now.

@Grumblevolcano Ughhh, I’ve gotta scratch my head on that those August titles. It would be a nice surprise if they have something planned for the one-year next month.

Is this also the first month without a Nintendo first party title?

sigh Nintendo, please, please, please, improve this. This slow trickle of NES titles is just so underwhelming. Game Boy, GBC, SNES. Come on, even if you stopped there it would be so much better.

And I would pay more if they started offering GBA N64 and Gamecube. I'd pay as much as PS4's service for that!

Your monthly reminder from me that NSO and all mainstream console-wide online play should be free and that this entire NES service is a lazy way to try to justify it not being free when it could've been its own separate paid service.

I should probably literally just copy+paste that sentence and just post it every month. It was true before it came out, it was true 11 months ago when it changed to paid, it will be true even when they add better and more compelling games to the service.

So, this makes the 12th release, right? I wagered way back when we'd see 12 releases of NES games before SNES came out in this year's Nintendo Direct, let's see if I was right.

It seems Story of Seasons Friends of Mineral Town will feature same-sex relationships in the form of the "best friends" system.

It would be the first time in the history of the series it is an option for a male playable character.

Fresh off of my 300th rational argument against someone who refused to doubt that Persona 5 is coming to Switch

I hate Thursdays

That seems like 299 discussions too many 😂

Just remember that 24 SNES games for NSO were found the in Switch's code six months ago. Nintendo is waiting for those annual subs to run out in September/November before dropping those SNES games on us and...well if fish were NSO subs...

Here's a new interview with Kotaro Uchikoshi about AI: The Somnium Files which comes out next month: How AI: The Somnium Files Blends Absurdism, Love, And Dreams ...

Yes @BlueBlur101 but isn't it Persona 5 S which is totally different from Persona 5.

They better because as it stands now i'm letting my yearly NSO subscription elapse. As i've never played my Switch online and haven't played any of the NES games since Super Mario Bro's The Lost Levels.

The only reason I have NSO right now is that it's free with Twitch Prime. We'll see if I ever decide it's worth paying for.

It's a shame too. I got the yearly online sub for the nes games being a big reason for it. That lasted like 6 months and i haven't opened the app in a while. It's such a poor effort as of late. But I was still playing splatoon regularly and I knew i was getting smash so I bought in. Now I play mm2 online almost every day so I'm really on the fence if i should renew it for that fact. Next month or if we have a direct with new information, I'll have to make my decision

@BlueBlur101 Persona 5 is going to be announced in an October Direct along with the Switch Pro.
