@Latinomex01 i asume from your handle that you might be Mexican. Well I am too, and I should say that our stupid people are certainly worse than American stupid people. The proof is simple, they are a first world country and we are not. So that pretty much shows that their baseline is definitely higher

It is that lack of humility that doesn't let us accept our own problems and work to correct them. Please don't be this ignorant.

Got this fame two days ago. And I'm obsessed.

This is good, competition breeds excellence.

Dark Souls is such a PS4 over Switch for me.

I've always wondered how Breath of the Wild would've looked on the PS4... I really do. I love my Switch and all, but those PS4 games are looking mighty fine these days.

The only logic answer to your question is "yes", if only because they do have a shot. However its is a very long shot.

I actually do hope it is good. Because it is about time that phones start becoming better at being game consoles.

I think the chance of Nintendo making a brand new Stafox game is riding on the potential success of this game on the Switch.

By the way, in this version instead of a pick axe Captain Toad uses his own penis to break blocks.

I enjoyed that game more than any adult person with a demanding job should. (Because I played a lot of it in the office)

My problem with ports is that they feel like padding of the library. I get the excuse that since the Wii U failed, a lot of people haven't played them. But still, why no try to make new games first. You a have the game engine, bring a sequel to Switch or st least announce it like when we got Bayonetta 2 on Wii U and they released it alongside a port of the original.

BTW, Sony is a lot more business driven than Nintendo. They might have a timed exclusive on their hands a may eventually let the IP be ported to other consoles, and maybe make a profit out of it. They will be gaging interest.

Bad omen for Smash online?

Can I call this shovelware without being judge like a heathen?

I am going to sell my Switch now that I am not using and get the updated version in a bundle when it comes out. That way the price won't drop as much and I'll get a better deal in the end.

I hope it is Affordable Space Adventures. By far the best game on the Wii U, and the only one that would be imposible to port to any other platform ever.

What a disposable line-up. I know some people don't like it when someone criticizes the Switch's line-up, but really i you have any other console, the Switch becomes a bit redundant.

I was having the time of my life patiently going through God of War, and then Spiderman came out and I started to obsess with getting it. And suddenly I realized I didn't need to. And Red Dead Redemption 2 is right around the corner.

However, this very line of thinking has me wondering if I should sell both my Switch and my Wii U. I have backlog on both, and I don't know if I'll ever get around to it.

I don't take the Switch out much, I like gaming at home. And when I do game outside is usually with my 3DS. But is tough to think that I will miss Fire Emblem 3 Houses and Metroid Prime 4. Which are the only 2 Nintendo games I'm looking forward to.

I don't know, mam, but you make a good point. I'll try to go through my entire backlog before I move forward and that's rhat.

@sauce if Geno comes announced like Isabelle, attached to a sequel to Super Mario R.P.G. then I don't need anything more from life.

Now that Nintendo and Square Enix are all cuddly again, it would be great if a Super Mario R.P.G. was brewing somewhere.

I love my 3DS, it is my office console. I will buy any new game they release: Luigi's Mansion, Kirby's extra Epic Yarn and this seem like perfect choices for the veteran console. Nintendo surely knows how to give love to a successful console.

And for al those this-should-be-on-switch people, bear in mind that the Switch will probably receive this much love in its twilight years as well.

@yuwarite what about "padding" which is a different spin on shovelware.

However, Like I've told the many hardcore defenders of this game that have appeared I will try it when it comes out, and hopefully put my foot in my mouth. I didn't know this was so well liked.

@Ryu_Niiyama "do you feel that any non modern/natively made for the system games fall into the shovelware category?"

Sure thing. Mostly indie titles are starting to feel shovelwary (some). The download-only landscape is full of them... However, I think the PS4 has more shovelware than the Switch right now.

Senran Kagura Reflex comes to mind as recent shovelware.

Maybe the shovelware has evolved since the Wii days, when it was more obvious, but I'm talking about games than feel like padding for an arguably poor line-up. Like those tabletop card games, which some people may love, but they look cheap and dull to me and not very "Direct Worthy" if that means anything. Or even this one to be honest, although from all the comments I'm getting, I'm already inclined to try it when it comes out. I was in college during the PS2 and Gamecube gen so I missed out on a lot of games from that era.

"I would assume that means that you don't play games that are primarily skill based (racers, fighting games etc)"

You assume correctly with the exception of Mario Kart, F-Zero, Mortal Kombat and Smash.

"Although to be honest most of the games that are lauded for their story can often be stripped down to a basic a to b underlying mechanic"

Agreed. I need balance and high stakes decision making in a game of that sort. I can bare two button mechanics for a mind blowing interactive stories.

This will be my first Animal Crossing game... I surrender, Nintendo. So many folks saying how great the franchise is... I'm in.

This looks... interesting. The art style might be a bit uninspired, but for a game that's called still called just "town"... well, it clearly is unfinished.

Love you Blue Bomber... come to papa.

@Ryu_Niiyama I don't mind being misunderstood. A PS2 port seems like shovelware to me. Ports are very high quantity and arguably low quality on the Switch.

Adult means many things, not just sex and violence. It is also themes. Like The Last of Us or Read Dead Redemption or the Latest God of War... they do have sex and violence, but they are not about that, they touch on many layered themes in a very adult fashion.

This kiddiy games, to me, are not just about pastel colors, but are also very "rescue the princess". And that gets old fast. So everything feels too simple all the time. The better ones have great gameplay and I'm down for that, but all in all, I need games to appeal to more adult aspects of my mind.

I want this game so bad. I just got Dark Moon, never played it before... loving it. Loved this game back in the day.

Tickles my fancy. BIG TIME!!!

@rjejr like the DC Universe hahahahaha... awesome.

I own a PS4, i do like more mature looking games. I love me some Mario, Luigi's Masion, Kirby games and tons of other kiddy stuff.. It just sometimes is too much.

Some people do get very sensitive about their game taste around here though, which is fine.

@embison maybe some time down the line... I hope... The concept is a good idea, we fans always want the whole enchilada, but sometimes things need to be tested.

@faint thanks.

I'd rather hit my pinky toe in adamantium furniture than play this game.

I took my wallet out when I saw it. Please Nintendo feed my N3DS with every Wii/Gamecube port you can conceive.

I'm getting everything from Final Fantasy except the Pocket Edition.

I just never got Animal Crossing... can't find the appeal. Which is weird, since it has become one of the biggest brands for Nintendo.

A lot of complaints... understandable, but this game deserves to be played by more people than us Wii U believers.

I will double dip for sure.

@GrailUK but why? I'm a nice person that hates one thing you love.

@justin233 I have clues. Not many, but some.

@TJWorks I'll give it a go... I'm just tired of pastel looking kiddy stuff... I dreamt of Fire Emblem showing up on the direct, maybe a glimpse of Samus shooting something.

I'm a bitter old man.

Hello shovelware my old friend.

Lovely... will buy.

Best part of the direct... and it was the first.

I've spent a dime this year on games, and most of them are just backlog. And after Red Dead Redemption 2 comes out, everything else will be backlog.

I'm kind of grateful that most Switch releases this year are not my thing. The PS4 is having a hell a of a 2018 and my wallet won't stand two consoles having stellar years. (For my taste, no disrespect)

I had this growing up. And I find it Amazing that Luigi is only a couple of months older than I am. I never knew this was his first appearance, I probably ended throwing the device in the garbage.

The moment I no longer care that Sony didn't let me transfer my content.

It's so great that he always talks about going back to the drawing board in a sense for this next Zelda. Maybe he finally freed himself from the structure created by A Link to The Past. What a game and what a historic inertia it had on the series, but it's time to change even further.

I'm leaning on my PS4 the upcoming months with Spiderman and Red Dead Redemption.

I just got The Messenger on Switch and it is great.

@Megal0maniac will do! Thanks.

I was trying to get The Messenger, but for some weird reason I can't find it in the eShop.

I live in Mexico and we usually get everything at the same time as the US but it seems this game is an exception.

How about "Feel free to let loosie goosie in the comments below'?
