Panzer Dragoon Remake for me, already on Chapter 4 and having a great time
Been waiting for One Step From Eden since seeing a YouTube indie game channel discussing 2020 releases. Right up my street.
Me must get Panzer Dragoon. Was not expecting that to hit today.
Still playing doom64 doom doom2 and doom 16 😁
I want to try Panza Dragoon but having never played the original, not sure if it’s a game I’d enjoy or if it’s one for those with nostalgia? Also the prize is a little steep.
I've already played a couple of runs of One Step From Eden. I don't really know what I'm doing yet but I'm having a good time regardless.
Unsure on Panzer Dragoon at this point. I haven't heard anything about gyro aiming so I'm assuming that they weren't added. Can anyone confirm that for me?
Can't wait to read the reviews for the Panzer Dragoon remake.
There’s a demo for Bravely Default II incoming?!
My goodness that is great news, can’t wait to hear if the soundtrack is like the first and not like the aural atrocity in Bravely Second.
I liked the look of good job but does anyone know if it’s coop only?
Wow! Really surprised about the shadow drop of Panzer Dragoon. They said "Winter 2020". Only a couple of days late
I was excited for Panzer Dragoon Remake, then I saw the dev/publisher behind it - literally some of the worst games on eShop were published by them; the development studio was responsible for “Agony”, an abysmal game.
Now I’m really worried and gave up on spending $25 on it.
Been looking forward to Panzer Dragon, it's release came out of nowhere. Will have to pick it up.....
Panzer Dragoon was by far the big announcement for me. It's fantasy Star Fox! (ish). Secondly we are getting a good Burnout game!
Plus how many on-rails flying shooters do we have on Switch? Answer: Not Many, so it gets extra points.
Do we really have to click through 23 pages of discounts on the nintendo site now rather than just get the latest ones here? There can't just be two new discounts surely.
@Kitchener It's been confirmed that the music for Bravely Default II is composed by Revo, who did the score for the first game!
Panzer Dragoon:

@TheRealKyleHyde
Well thank you for putting a smile on my face.
Well, not ON my face but you know, in my mind.
Got Panzer Dragoon, and it's good fun.
However, i hope they'll add an option of changing the controls without going back to the title screen. I had to do this twice, once to invert the controls so it plays like StarFox, and a second time to tone down the sensitivity down because the default aiming sensitivity is way too high.
