Topic: The Nintendo Switch Thread

But there are quite a lot Sonic Colours Wii version from Ebay or Amazon that you can always consider them.

I actually just canceled my sonic colors pre-order since I grabbed bravely default 2. I won't even have time for anything else until dread anyway.

Too many games, not enough time, that's for sure.

I can't express how glad I am seeing Metroid Dread still in the Amazon Top 100 Best Sellers list, where it's remained ever since it was announced. And I'm happy to hear so many ppl are interested.

But I will be doing my best to advocate for three other games in the meantime which many will overlook in the onslaught. The first is WarioWare: Get It Together. The demo is crazy good for single player, and it's got a smashing 2 player mode- everyone should download the demo and give it a go. The second is Cruis'n Blast. This arcade exclusive Nintendo IP has been a long time coming. And for all we know, may be the last true Cruis'n game we ever see from the original creator. The third is, of course, Super Monkey Ball: Banana Mania. This collection is legendary. The top 3 games of the series which is an insane amount of content, with optional jumping and optional Gyro. All the classic mini games are included as well, which are some of the best fun I've ever had in multi-player. Monkey Bowling, Monkey Golf, Monkey Billiards, Monkey Target... it's all there.

I can't wait for Metroid. But I won't say the wait will be excruciating. Not with those 3 games on deck in the interim. Of course there are others. But games like No More Heroes 3 and Sonic Colors... they have highly dedicated fanbases already.

edit
A game called Dark Diety, a current PC exclusive, is coming to Switch next year. Apparently it reviewed well and looks like old school Fire Emblem

@JaxonH no problem. I bought 2 myself but will get one more. Cleaned those out getting games on sale. I’ll wait on reviews on dark diety. Last time i splashed out on a FE clone sight unseen, buyer’s remorse moved in.

I’m holding off on King’s bounty 2 for that reason.

@JaxonH They're both SEGA products so it may be that what's causing the Sonic Colours Ultimate delay in Europe also affects Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania.

check out the analysis of the Metroid Dread amazing trailer.

lol Bravely Default 2 has been on top of the Amazon charts since the price cut.

Not surprised: it's a great price point for the game. Especially on a system where a lot of Nintendo-published games rarely get big price cuts.

@Ralizah
It released at a crowded time, too.

We had Super Mario 3D World, Persona 5 Strikers and Monster Hunter Rise all within a month of Bravely Default 2. With a pretty steady onslaught ever since.

I see Persona 5 Strikers is also doing very well with a price cut. I imagine Neo: TWEWY will too with an eventually price drop.

I was worried it hadn’t sold well, but apparently it’s around 1 million. Which is pretty good considering it hadn’t yet been sharply discounted. MH Rise is around 7.3 million now. That one should easily reach 8 or even 8.5 by the end of the generation after discounts. Switch software all around seems to be doing exceptionally well.

@JaxonH Dang, 1 mil for NEO:TWEWY? That's more than 3 times the total sales of the original DS game. It's also probably more than all the versions combined, but we don't have sales numbers for most of those versions.

@link3710
??

No, 1 mil for Bravely Default 2. I have no idea where Neo TWEWY is at. I just said I think it'll do extremely well after a price cut

@JaxonH I completely misread your comment then.

Um, hasn't Neo TWEWY only been out like a month .....? I'm sure I saw something about it being top of the Japanese sales charts for it's launch week, at least!

Impressions of Tormented Souls on PS5 seem to be pretty good. Looking forward to the eventual Switch port. Glad at least one indie developer gets the appeal of classic RE/Silent Hill.

Apparently Suda wants to work with Marvel on a Deadpool game

PLEASE make this happen Marvel. This is too perfect of a pairing like Insomniac was with Spider-Man.

I need some Monkey Ball and WarioWare to play on Switch Lite at work. I'm bored.

Looks like we are getting physical releases of both Star Wars Jedi Knight games, Pod Racer and Republic Commando

@FragRed You have my interest...

@gcunit Yep, I’m looking to buy these games physically. Have them digitally on PS4 but want the Switch version too and this is perfect for me.

@Wavey84 The difference is Capcom own all the games in those collections so they’re not having to get licenses. Hamster need to go through all the legal problems that come with licensing each and every game they want to sell. Then they have to pay royalties on top which eats into any revenue they get, so individually they have to sell it at higher price.

Anyone have any thoughts on what GB(C) titles might be coming to NSO? Or are we all scared of the fun police raining down on any rumour/speculation talk on this forum..... or we just don't care about Gameboy titles.....

Assuming this happens, which is probable, I would hope we see the Wario Land games. Purely because it's a pretty much entirely forgotten franchise that started on and has 3 releases on GB(C). Would be pretty happy if they lead with that. For the history I wouldn't mind seeing X, just for the novelty of it. Also Pokemon Pinball & Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble would be nice to see given they leant on rumble/accelerometers.... and purely for my own nostalgia Mario Tennis

And honestly, I wouldn't mind if they didn't roll out Tetris/Link's Awakening given there are other/better options on the Switch alread. And for Pokemon I doubt they'd want to do that given they could probably charge $100 for a piece of hardware that only plays Pokemon Red and people would buy it
