New Frontier Days Becomes A Nintendo Switch Launch Game

Fingers crossed for killing natives
(In case it isn't clear, this is a joke).
Edit: Dysentery would also be a bonus.

You had me at town-building simulation.
You lost me at that woman's voice.

@shaneoh Needs to be a Trail game, to really appreciate dysentery.

Why do I want this -_-

I'm not exaggerating when I say this is one of my most anticipated titles for the Switch. I was really hoping this would arrive soon, launch day is way better than I expected.

Honestly, I'm guessing this'll be my most played title after Zelda in the launch window.

I'm not liking the smell of this one. The voiceover does it no favours, and the animation of the all the in-game characters is very limited.

I'll gladly wait for reviews on this one. Looks a little too basic for my taste. If it scores a 6 or more then I will look into it more.

Not my cup of tea, which is awesome because I'm already going to be broke after all the other games I'm buying in the next couple of months.

A tablet game, mobile simulator, could be fun, and should be within the Switch's ability to run. I think I'll build colonies on other worlds playing Mass Effect instead, but good for switch owners, I'm sure this will be just as fun.

I love city-building simulators, but god that is one terrible trailer.

Such as riding on them and??

Jesus christ that voiceover totally killed the commercial. That's it, I'm making my own version of that on Youtube.

it looks quite cute, I could be tempted at that price

I saw this game floating in the toilet the other day, refusing to go down. Good thing there's always other things to play on day 1.

Smells like mobile f2p trash to me. I'll have to pass on this one.

played it on 3ds, didn't like it

Free to Play rubbish charged at a premium to avoid micro transactions. Shovelware Day 1. Never change Nintendo...

@Shellcore you have just predicted the future of the Switch

I'm a huge fan of Age of Empires types of games. I'll wait for the review then maybe pick it up based on that.

@Captain_Gonru
"Fingers crossed I can find extra controllers (though the store folks I've talked to aren't exactly filling me with hope)."

Are extra controllers hard to find?
Where do you live, if I may ask?

I'm Norwegian, and I pre-ordered four Pro Controllers and three pair of Joy -Con 12 days ago in a store in Oslo. I hope I get at least some of this on launch day.

Oh no, I'm a sucker for simulators...is this touch screen only?

Must resist.....

Looks like something you could find on mobile.

Not interested at all.

This belongs on a cell phone and not a brand new console.

@shaneoh Just make sure you can ford the river.

I hadn't considered the potential for rts games on the switch but as a huge fan (Age of Mythology got me into pc gaming) of the genre I hope that it becomes heavily represented on the system.

Ew.... no, thanks.
I would rather choose Harvest Moon Magical Melody Gamecube than this game.

I think I will hold out for Constructor, this looks like one of those crappy flash games you get on facebook.

@zipmon on the review!

Can someone bring out Dune II please? Thank you.

Cute. A little TOO cute, maybe. Appears rather unoffensive and tame, the same way we're used to seeing mobile games.

But hey, the more the merrier, even if that voice over creeps me out slightly.

Think I'd rather wait for Stardew Valley, but that's a pretty long wait. Price is good though. I'll probably decide based on the review.

@Monkeyofthefunk
Well if you watch the sheep in the middle of the screen in the first nine seconds, you'll see it help cut down a tree... by headbutting it

I saw the picture of the story and was very interested. Watched the trailer and was instantly turned off.

@Agent721 Well, the vast majority of Switch launch titles look to come straight from mobile.

@Jeronan

This one looks particularly awful. Barely any animations, clearly a game that was F2P originally and of all the games I've seen, this looks by far to be the worst.

And I love this genre, but I know garbage when I see it.

Why can't we get a new Actraiser game with more town building/destruction? The first game, not the second.

That voice! I was just waiting for her to say "I can't let you do that Dave."

Wow... that looks like a throwaway mobile game... and the Siri type voiceover doesn't help that cause any.

Shame... I really enjoy city-building games as well.

Very tempting. I was really into Funky Barn on the Wii U, remember that, er, gem? It was quite good if you didn't pay full price for it. (I got it for $10.) I think in the case of this one I'll wait for your review and if it gets a 7 or higher I'll be seriously tempted but otherwise I'll probably wait for a sale. I am going to be splashing some SERIOUS cash on the eShop Friday as it is.

Well, at least this looks miles better than any of Wii U's farming sims. Coming from Arc System Works at least you can expect a polished game here. I don't mind the weak graphics, I'm all about good gameplay. The best farm game on Wii U was Funky Barn which was a 49,99€ disappointment. It got better when bugs and annoyances were fixed a year later and when it got reduced to 14,99€, so I could give it a 5/10. But this here seems like a firm 7/10 right from the start with potential to be even more fun than what initially meets the eye.

It's my most wanted launch game, next to Zelda.
