Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

@Dogorilla Thanks for pointing that out.

Embarrassingly, for a massive Star Wars fan, I don't know much about this series so have looked it up. Outcast follows on from Mysteries of the Sith, which was an expansion pack for Dark Forces II.

Academy (coming to Switch in 2020) is the follow up to Outcast.

I think I have all these nowadays on Steam (bought the entire set for about £5 I suspect), but the only one I've played was the original Dark Forces back in the day on Windows, pre-Steam.

Would be great if that entire set sold on Steam came to Switch so that I could play them in order. Can't remember much at all of Dark Forces but I know I liked it and think I finished it, so perhaps I'll just try and play Dark Forces II and the expansion on Steam before playing the Switch games.

Star Wars includes gyro on Switch, I hear. That's awesome. Even if its waggle, I wanna swing some lightsabers 😁

@JaxonH Divinity: Original Sin 2 has been on my wishlist for a Switch port as I've heard how good it's meant to be, but I've not heard anything about a physical release, in which case I may have to ignore it for now.

I've just checked my Steam account - I bought all 5 of the above mentioned Jedi Knight games in 2011 and not touched them since. Time to address that.

What are the chances of new stuff for Switch being shown at TGS?

@gcunit SuperRareGames has sent me an email to fill what game I want to be made into Physical next and I filled Divinity: Original Sin 2.
I got the email probably because I bought from them Machinarium.

So if anyone has been customer of their lately and like Divinity we could unite and sent multiple mails

@-Green-
Capcom has a 1 hour long Switch remasters presentation at TGS. But aside from that I imagine it'll just be showcasing what's already announced, given how jam packed the lineup is.

We're all still waiting for the Switch-exclusive version of Monster Hunter.

I still believe it'll be a sequel to Monster Hunter Stories but we'll see.

On second thoughts, f-that for a plan. Just tried Dark Forces, Dark Forces II, and Mysteries of the Sith in Steam and, rather predictably, the graphical glitching and controller configuration issues are there immediately, and I have too many other games to play to spend time trying to see if I can improve the situation. **** PC gaming.

@Zuljaras Nice one - certainly better than nothing.

@Heavyarms55 From what I remember after checking out the Japanese trailer, the boss was censored in the Japanese version of the trailer too. But hopefully its just in the trailer and the game itself will be uncensored. And that it gets a retail release.

Um...
Konami will do their DDR, Beatmania IIDX, Sound Voltex Ultimate Mobile event during TGS 2019 on 12 Sep 2019.

@Magician I really hope so. I’ve been hoping for a sequel to that game ever since I played it

@Knighty_IX Saw it earlier today and god gracious me, this is simply fabolous! Easily the Nintendo franchise I wanted the moste to get a remake! Even without an English version, a retail version would easily be GOTY for me

Mostly looking for some Ace Attorney news from TGS.

Anyways, I'm happy that Banjo is out, but man is it distracting me from Astral Chain! I want to finish that game before Zelda releases

Always wanted to play Famicom Detective Club! If buy those in a heartbeat if they came to the west, or if they have English in the JP version even. No VA needed even, just give us English subtitles. Or y'know, I'd even take Spanish, just so long as I can manage to read it.

@JaxonH Is Divinity: Original Sin 2 that much better than 1? I say this as a huuuuge Black Isle/Infinity Engine junkie/super-fan, I found the first one bland, uninspired, and hollow and just abandoned it early on. It wasn't what I was hoping it would be. It was like the Western version of Tokyo RPG Factory games.

Woo finally snagged my Dragon Quest Switch. Had to do the usual song and dance with the bank. Can't wait for those cool joycons!

"Miss, if there's anyone trying to force to spend these huge amounts of money, or you think your life might be in danger, please respond by saying you are interested in life insurance"

"Sir, this is a Wendy's."

@StableInvadeel LOL! Yeah I do appreciate the sentiment behind it but at this point I should be that person they just wave though. "That Niiyama lady is buying stuff from Japan again!"
