I stopped playing after generation 3 so this was my first time playing DP and it is far better than sword and shield imo.

I'm excited! This will be my first play of DP so I can't wait for Nov.

I feel like this game has been pending for so long it felt like it was never going to be released. However, now it has been, it seems a little too much like Stardew Valley for me.

@huntbearpig same! Quite a few graphics issues but they appeared to have fixed themselves as I progressed. Didn't know it was such a good game, looking forward to the sequel next year now.

Warioware, Mario Party, Brilliant Diamond, Legends Arceus and Mario and Rabbids 2 (providing they code it properly this time!)

I have a Switch and a Lite and I play the Lite every day whilst the OG gathers dust. Like others say, it's nicer to have a lighter handheld whilst in bed, for example. I have no qualms with the Lite and would still pay $200.

@PoliticallyIncorrect but this is about Netflix venturing into gaming and not your interest in anti-woke TV shows and films. Whatever that even means.

Miitopia 😢 ya did good!

Miitopia in 4th, I love to see it. Evidence we need Tomodachi Life.

Love Pokemon but this ain't it

Happy with Warioware and I guess I'll pick up Mario Party for games night but meh overall. Let me just manifest Tomodachi Life, The Sims Switch and an ACNH update at the next Direct.

This and Miitopia - best games are £39.99

Mario Party and WarioWare but not at all interested in the rest. Haven't returned to ACNH in 2021 and looks like I won't be doing. I also had a completely unfounded desire that we would see something like Tomodachi Life but with the success of Miitopia I still hope. So many RPGs but I want more life simulation (not farming/harvesting ones!)

@Mgene15 Miitopia did

@zapswitch yes. Everybody is interested in this game except from you.

@Paraka I really hope so. I didn't own a 3DS but I am seriously enjoying Miitopia on Switch and I have heard great things about Tomodachi Life. Plus, the speculation around Warioware is getting me really excited about casual gaming prospects coming to Switch. Up to now I've only really engaged with ACNH and Pokemon.

People arguing over Miitopia 😂 More controversial to me is that Animal Crossing is still up there! I think I over estimated Animal Crossing based on previous games but going into Miitopia having never played before, I'm really enjoying it, far more than I did AC and it was cheaper.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon DX. I completed the game a while back but finding the post game missions really difficult but I like that it isn't super easy like the mainline games.

@Itachi2099 'too many RPGs and not enough variety' so the nintendo switch then?

Nothing will ever beat Rita Ora's Carry On from the Detective Pikachu soundtrack. Nothing.

I know EA are money grabbing monsters who focus primarily on the bottom line but I still have a delusional fantasy that one day a form of The Sims will come to Switch.

@The-Chosen-one smash bros was my first thought, the game intro is amazing and would make a great movie I think, it also means characters who don't speak in the games don't necessarily have to have dialogue in the film

Agreed. The only update that I returned to the game for was deep sea diving.

@LXP8 mystery dungeon hands down for me

Never got to play this the first time around so downloaded the demo yesterday and absolutely loved it. As a more casual player who still enjoys RPGs like Pokemon I really enjoyed the game. There seems to be a lot of more serious RPGs out there so I thought this was a really welcome palate cleanser. I will definitely be buying on Day 1.

The game was over for me after I bought Stardew Valley for one fifth of the price but experienced so much more gameplay and storylines.

@Migoshuro imo NH is characterised more as a farming/harvest sim than a life sim e.g. there is greater emphasis on constructing items than fellow islander personalities. People who like to design things seemed to have responded really well to the game but I don't enjoy terraforming as much as I would enjoy different relationship challenges and a greater variety of 'life' aspects beyond catching thousands of sea bass.

@King-K-Rool and the 1,000 other ones

How many more farming sims must we endure before we can get a switch version of The Sims?

I want to like this game so badly but I don't see how people aren't bored after paying off the final loan. Doing the same tedious tasks over and over again, I heard everything residents have to say a few days in meaning their personalities are so superficial, I cannot believe Stardew Valley cost me 1/5th of the price when the gameplay, storylines and characters are so much more developed.

This is why I love the remakes, they allow you an opportunity to relive missed opportunities. I was too young to experience Blue and Red but I was at my Pokemon peak around aged 10 during Fire Red and Leaf Green (and that's why Leaf Green is my all time favourite). My brother also had Fire Red but wasn't as invested as me but I was able to use his GameBoy and game to get my hands on Arcanine and Scyther! I also loved Ruby and Sapphire but by the time Diamond and Pearl was released I thought I was a cool teenager too cool for Pokemon but now as an adult I will get to overcome my naivety and experience Sinnoh for the first time, Chibi or not I can't wait!

On one hand, I really do not appreciate the chibi style (sorry to keep going on about it) but another part of me really likes that they have a variation of art styles to differentiate all the different games, generations and regions. I still think Let's Go has the best art style - I was gutted it was one of the easiest games in the franchise because it was over before I could even truly enjoy the art.

@ChaoticIgnorance calm down. I didn't bring whitewashing up and the commentator I was replying to didn't contest my comment because they knew the paraphrasing was accurate and not taken out of context. But yes, please chill.

@Tipehtfomottob I think you might be right. I still hope one day EA will commission a new The Sims game for Switch but the new Pokemon announcements will have me sticking around for now.

@Scollurio essentially, simulation games that aren't farming/crafting sims e.g. Tomadachi Life, The Sims, etc. I play Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley but I find the farming, catching and crafting elements fairly repetitive. My favourite thing about Stardew Valley is the relationships you build with townsfolk but Animal Crossing is really quite basic in that respect (e.g. animals who just tend to repeat the same things). I appreciate any suggestions.

@Markiemania95 "and this may be a different period"

@samuraicop 'no they haven't whitewashed him they've just made his skin lighter' 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

One year on from buying a Switch I'm feeling pretty disillusioned. Games like this aren't my bag and whilst I appreciate they are popular, I envisaged many more casual/simulation games coming to Switch as per the 3DS and Wii. Nintendo regularly mention how they are focused on catering to a diverse range of players but it really doesn't feel that way.

I can't believe they're charging such a high price for one port. Like others, I think Nintendo ought to be discounting the price or releasing an 'all stars'-esque bundle for this price. I guess people really love Zelda.

Cole Young looks like the most boring character of the lot 😴

@timp29 in MK11 the voice actor appeared to continously shift between aussie and cockney, I never knew if that was intentional.
