Shocking, Crash 4 coming to Switch soon .... Only everybody here predicted it would do so

I still think Monster Hunter is coming to Smash.

I agree it doesn't always have to tie in. But Monster Hunter fits for multiple reasons. The franchise's pedigree and cultural impact notwithstanding, MH Rise is an exception to the rule and a game Nintendo will want to promote to sell Switches and define the Switch experience. For MH, assuming Sakurai didn't already want to include it on his own, I'm pretty sure Nintendo will have asked him, "can we add MH as one of the characters?"

And if it doesn't happen, Nintendo's just downright foolish.

@Magician XV is definitely coming to everything. XIV was only a PS4 console exclusive because SNK was just in a rough place and needed the funding for development much like what happened with Capcom and Street Fighter V

SamSho 2019 is a fully multiplatform game and Switch even has its own exclusive fighting game that uses the KoF XIV engine with SNK Heroines. It'll likely be cross gen but will also be on Switch and PC

@JaxonH what Monster Hunter character you think can join the Super Smash Bros Ultimate roster?Palico?the Monster Hunter Hunter?

@link3710 Microsoft/Sony and Nintendo still have not confirmed it participation on E3 2021.

@Giancarlothomaz
A hunter decked out in iconic Rathalos gear or Magnamalo gear. They're not gonna use the Palico. Yes they're representative of MH, but that would be like using Toad instead of Mario. The hunter is the character that represents the series, and the wirefall recovery is too perfect for an Up+B recovery.

@JaxonH I'd assume it would be a team character anyways, with the Palico (or Palico / Palimute), following you around and assisting. The Palico would probably be front and center in whatever crazy mechanics they'd give the character.

I'd be totally OK with a palico, just for the record. I just know it's incredibly unlikely.

Look at the adorable kitty customization

@JaxonH nice i pay homage to my dear late Nina on the game.

Just got the Samurai Showdown Collection Collector Edition from Limited Run, the Neo Geo case version...

I popped in the game and tried it out, and I’m really impressed with this collection. Included artwork for every game in the entire series including SNK Heroines, they have like a dozen high quality videos of developer interviews, walking tours of where they used to develop back in the day, etc. And while I was never a Neo Geo owner or a particular fan of Neo Geo in general, I really appreciate the legacy of SNK, and I love how this collection really caters to the retro arcade fans. So few games go to such a length to include so many extras. It’s nice.

Hey people, I've just beaten all 4 divine beasts in BotW (Yeah I know I got the game late but I'm absolutely loving it) and I'm not what to do now. What should I do to prepare for the final fight? Is there any specific weapons or armor I should have? (I already have the master sword) Stuff like that. Thanks!

@pilot stock up on food and head in. I went in with the master sword and no real special armor last play through. Fyi im sure tons of people will give you awesome feedback in the botw thread. Not that they won't here, but you'll get tons of advice in that thread.

I'm back with another question... My little brother has a switch, and wants some of the games that I have, so I was wondering if it's possible for me to put my account onto his switch and for him to download the games. Is that possible? They'res gotta be some catches to it because I'm sure nintendo wouldn't want people to put their accounts on different switches so anyone could play those games. They wouldn't make that much money that way... Also any links to videos and articles about this would be great

You can make his Switch a 'secondary' console, @pilot .... Then, he can play any of your games that you aren't playing at the same time on yours!

@pilot You actually can share your digital games AND have him still play the games on his account. It's super simple. Make sure both of your Nintendo accounts are on both of your Switches. Go into the eshop on your Switch and de-register it as your primary console, and then log into your account on his Switch, and it should automatically make his Switch your "primary." What this does it allow him to play your digital games with his account. Make sure he does the same process so that your Switch becomes his "primary" console.

Seems too good to be true, but it totally works. You guys can even play the same game at the same time on different accounts. The only 'catch' is that, when you want to play your digital games, it'll do an online check for a second or two before launching the software. That's it.

I tried to find an instructive video per your request, and this lady seems like she's on the right track:

So SMTII is coming to NSO in Japan, honestly with so much of the SMT franchise coming to Switch I could see a SMTIV double pack be announced for Switch (IV and Apocalypse). Though it's a missed opportunity that 1 and 2 aren't being localized like FE1 was last year (of course not being limited time would be far preferable).

check out the NES e SNES games that will come to Switch Online on february 17th.

check out 7 aspect that could ruin Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild 2.

Publisher for Pillars of Eternity, Versus Evil, is giving up on the Switch port of the game.

This certainly doesn't bode well for the Switch port of Pillars of Eternity II, announced back in 2018.

I've mentioned before in this thread about how Mario 64 hasn't aged well. I'm coming to the end of my 3D All Stars playthrough of it (just got Rainbow Ride and final Bowser battle left) and I can for sure say that 64 has dropped positions in my 3D Mario rankings.

Before:
1. Sunshine/3D World
3. Odyssey
4. 64
5. Galaxy
6. Galaxy 2
7. 3D Land

Now:
1. Sunshine/3D World
3. Odyssey
4. Galaxy
5. Galaxy 2
6. 3D Land
7. 64

Controls are fine with most of the early levels (courses 1-5), Dire Dire Docks and at least the first 2 Bowser battles but the camera and problems like running around in circles when pushing a specific direction is a nuisance for everything else especially courses like Shifting Sand Land and Tick Tock Clock.

While 3D Land is rather uninspired compared to all the other 3D Mario games, at least it controls well.
