I hate to say this, but....

This game is not full in one cartridge, download required.
Sorry, guys. Get the PS4 / PS5 version for the best result.
Don't support the partial download practice.

Rhythm gonna hit your head.

So far my day 1 purchases for the rest of the year is seeming to be:

  • The DioField Chronicle
  • Tunic
  • Nier Automata
  • Persona 5 Royal
  • Bayonetta 3
  • Sonic Frontiers
  • Pokemon Scarlet/Violet

These are definite though there's others I'm considering like Crisis Core (is it best to play Crisis Core before FF7 as it's a prequel or the other way around?).

As for my Day 1 purchases.....probably just Pokemon Scarlet and a renewed NSO EP subscription honestly. I grabbed Splatoon 3 Day 1 (well, technically 2 but still) about a week ago so that'll more than last me until SV comes out (in addition to whatever comes out on NSO).

For me the question is should I get Mario + Rabbids day one. After Zelda it's probably the game I most want to play, however it's also the game that will get the heaviest discount as it's Ubisoft plus Persona, Splatoon, Mario Strikers, Pokemon, Neir, AEW Fight Forever, Fire Emblem, Mario Kart DLC, Bayonetta and a backlog of indies means I probably wont even notice I've not got it yet for awhile.

@jump If you're not worried about supporting them at launch, then just buy it when you're ready to spend the time to actually play it.

Their pricing strategy really is unfortunate. I fully believe people would have no issues paying full price for a game like this otherwise.

@Grumblevolcano Crisis Core was released years after FF7, with the expectation that you'd already played the full game. Best to play the original game first.

@Ryu_Niiyama It's nice to see a game that was exclusive to the Atomiswave come out of the woodwork.

Now we just need a port of Dolphin Blue and I'll be content.

@Magician Oooh, never heard of Dolphin Blue. Looks nice though. Given the year it came out I'm not surprised. I was graduating HS and heading to Undergrad....no free time at all. I didn't even play video games from 03 to 05.

I checked the coming soon section but I feel like it's not showing all the major stuff. Post direct, what are we looking at for releases through the rest of 2022?

@Kermit1 that’s why I find it funny when folks say there are no games on switch. You may not like all of them but there is plenty to play.

Also why I wait until Black Friday to buy most of my games. Would have to sell a kidney otherwise.

There's so many amazing games on the way it's mind boggling. Switch truly is the greatest platform of all time. Not just due to its dizzying catalog of top shelf games, but the fact all of them are console versions, handheld versions, portable console tabletop versions, and many offer local splitscreen and/or local wireless.

@JaxonH lol I am still updating because I am trying to make sure i didn’t miss any japan only games. Since I know others import as well. But the roofer was working on my ceiling so I needed to be in the area and not working.
