Take Hunting Or Fishing On The Go With Cabela's The Hunt And Bass Pro Shops: The Strike On Switch

I mean if they actually looked good? There's a ton of games that look amazing in which hunting is an option. Like the Witcher 3, Far Cry, Breath of the Wild. Just to name some.

....and fishing, well I do that in Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley.

No and no.

Well.

It's better than that "Cabela's Dangerous Hunts" wildlife murdering simulator.

I'm no outdoorsman, but I feel like I could actually really get into a hunting simulator. I may keep my eye on this one.

Now you can enjoy the thrill of stalking, luring, hurting, and murdering innocent lives for the fun of it. Anytime, anywhere. What "sportsmanship", with unwilling participants that can't actually win, only temporarily escape with their lives (somewhat) intact.

Next up: slaughterhouse simulator and grilling adventure. Systematic "humane" mass murder and preparing and chewing on animal corpses "with love" was never such fun! With VR headsets it's so real you can almost taste the blood!

What's wrong with humans?

The fishing could be fun, I like the fishing in the Labo kit.

If you’ll excuse me, I have to go get my child army hopped up on brown brown and commit mass atrocities. Because apparently that’s the moral equivalence. /s

Wow more fishing games I count 3 already this week?

These look like ps2 graphics and the fishing rod looks so crappy.
Never beat the Sega bass fishing rod....best ever!

Nope. I can't get past the terrible graphics.

I'm sure somebody's uncle is going to love playing this, after they've had a 12 of keystone light and an uncomfortable heart to heart with their niece, who is still in high school.

@Shambo So true. And not even HD.

@aznable Ha haaaaaaaaaaaa

Awesome. I like th cabela’s games.

Admittedly, I mostly got them because they got price dropped to being a point I’d be willing to pay for the gun peripheral. The Wii/wii u top shot gun was awesome.

@Zuljaras I heard that in Farming Simulator, it's so realistic that you can see tears in the corn stalks' eyes as you drive the thresher towards them.

@Shambo Lol, I bet you are fun at social gatherings.

at least gun ho crazy Americans can now virtually kill animals instead of actually killing them for no reason.
personally I am waiting for another murder simulator in the vain of manhunt so that i can practice virtually killing humans before i go out and actually kill them..... I hear the ivory trade is dead now and we have moved into black market human organs...come to me oh sweet money...

I still wonder if the fishing game might end up also supporting the Labo fishing rod.

I love the smell of Virtue in the morning !!!

hunting is not about killing for most people, mostly about knowing your quarry, stalking it, and practicing good marksmanship. If you eat your kills I do not see an issue.

I really wish this thread was a conversation about the peripheral and not the subject of the game.

Without the sensor bar, how does light gun gaming work on the switch? Probably through gyros, so is recalibrating going to be fairly constant?

Could this peripheral be used with a port of say... the Luigi’s mansion arcade?

For a system that’s as easy to make plastic peripherals for as the Wii, I’d like something a little sturdier than Labo cardboard sometimes.

Also, would be neat to get a sequel to link’s crossbow training, but then Nintendo would have to make its own peripheral.

@WhoaManWtF When I'm having a gathering, everyone present is sitting AT the table, no one is being served ON it. Maybe reconsider your idea of "fun for ALL".

@Shambo My gatherings generally consist of friends, maybe some drinks, some sort of entertainment, and most of all no one preaching about their beliefs somewhere where there is absolutely zero reason to be doing so.

@Shambo Nothing, we just like meat and from scavenging to hunting and gathering and later to agriculture made us create civilizations. That's a consequence of being a smarter than usual omnivore (I've read some anthropologists suggest that eating fish is what helped develop our brains, but I've never seen the specific study myself).

As for butcher simulator: you already have a Surgeon Simulator in the eShop. Sure, it's silly, but there actually would be a market for a game in which you have to open and gut a pig or a cow, blood included.

Hunting video games are definitely better than actual hunting, are they not? And it's not like many popular games don't feature violence, hunting included (see: Monster Hunter or the ever popular Breath of the Wild)...

@BMO_Advanced I was a bit disappointed that Breath of the Wild doesn't include a proper "fishing mechanic", but I guess it wouldn't feel to be organic gameplay flow to break out the rod and wait for an icon as bow-fishing or grabbing them alive while swimming.

@SmaggTheSmug There's plenty of violence, true. And I avoid games that force you to hunt. BotW had the decency of providing the tools required, but never forcing it in the slightest.
These games are all about harming and killing defenseless creatures for the fun of it, for "sports". If it were humans, it'd be worse than say Postal 2, Manhunt,... Postal 2 even claims to, as I said, just give you the tools in a consequence-free environment (which we all know is just PR bs in Postal 2's case).
If it were racist, or referring to times when humans were "smarter workers" and just whipped other human races into doing their labour, the world would've been deeply offended by it - rightfully so. Now it's "just animals" which are being denied any basic right to live and be free. And humans obviously VERY popularly consider themselves some superior race on this planet, and no one else speaks human language to deny it or voice their suffering...
