Re: Nintendo Indie World Showcase Announced For Tuesday 18th August

@CupidStunt

You need to give up on that. Get a PS5 (or a 3080) to play the big games coming (skipping a few $40/$60 ports on Switch pays for it)

Whenever something big (or Indie you want) finally makes it to Switch you play it. But you have a plan B. Make a "balance" of Indies and AAA by owning 2 hardware.

Or hope GeforceNOW, Shadow or Xcloud make it to Switch.

Re: Review: Faeria - A Superb Mix Of Board Game And Card-Battling Action

"it would have been cool if the DLC factor could have maybe waited at least a little while"

The game is from 2017, and the last DLC came out 16 months ago. Not sure why they would be ported in stages at this point. Not a secret it has tons of DLC.

Also, you need to be online to play. Doubt it is any different on Switch. I would check on that if an issue.

It was one of the Free games on the Epic store (and could include the full DLC pack for $24). Entertaining game.

@JimmySpades If someone is raving about something like GOT it would be logical they hoping for a big new experience on their handheld "2nd device" also. Not sure why you think their "preference in games" changes when they leave their homes. They are not playing rehashed old ports on their PS4/PC either!

If you been playing Animal crossing at home, you are set - great, good for you - write 200 comments on how great everything is. When that group is stuck in a Hotel in Boston for work (where everything is closed) they can play AC also. For the rest who been playing F12020, Nioh 2, TLOU2, GOT, Control at Home we are just sitting around wishing we were home (and now with another rehash on the horizon). And obvious Nintendo cant do 12 new AAA games a year, so then 3rd party cant release 7 months of rehash also.

Re: Random: Some Of Microsoft's New 'Designed For Xbox' Controllers Look Pretty Familiar

@OorWullie I bought it right after Christmas 2015 for my new iPhone

Looks like they copy the Xbox trapezoid layout for the buttons (The Switch makes a rectangle - thumbs are directly under the buttons). They also got rid of the iPhone home button cut out.

To me It looks more like what they been making for the past 5 years than a Switch controller.

Re: Review: Fairy Tail - A Disappointing RPG That's For Fans Of The Series Only

@JaxonH That is the battle screen. It is what looks best by far, because character models looks like where they spent most of their time on.

It takes two sec in town to notice all the cuts. And my point was not if it looked "good enough" for a handheld game - but that even with all the low settings looking stuff, it still does not run well. Not sure if resolution would even fix it, this is not pushing the Switch to the limits. Something is just broken.

Re: Nintendo Download: 30th July (Europe)

Fairy Tail had to have solid reviews to make it in July on my list. They are a bit all over the place (still get it on Switch, but as a rental later on) So nothing for me.

I have Origami king still. Probably break down and get Othercide on PC
