@KingdomHeartsFan you're absolutely right, I could always choose to play on tv mode, that's what I do with Fifa, but in that case I also cherish the possibility of taking it on the go.

But for Monsters Hunter, I am really looking forward to playing it on the most powerful console, since I know for a fact that game, for me, is better suited for a tv and couch experience.

I'm going full on with third-party games. The Bethesda 3 are already pre-ordered and I've been dying yo play LA Noire with my wife. She loves detective shows.

Even if it did come to Switch I would still get it for the PS4. I loved MH3 on the Wii and MH3U on the Wii U. Then I tried going portable with 4, but couldn't get into it. I don't know, but I didn't like it on the small screen.

More than anything I would love if Capcom gave Nintendo the license to release a 2D Mega Man. Only Nintendo could make a game like that work in this day and age.

Now that I've finished the main story and an extra I will compare this game with Super Mario World which I think is the real contender here. Even if it seems unfair pitting 2D against 3D.

Abilities: Capture is fine, but it makes the enemies you capture harmless. It is fun, but it detracts from the difficulty. Whereas all abilities in World are flawless, including Yoshi variations.

Worlds: Odyssey takes this one. The different Kingdoms are beautiful and diverse. Worlds in SMW are mostly color variations.

Bosses: also Odyssey. The Koopa family in SMW is pretty repetitive. Bosses in Odyssey are very diverse.

Final showdown: no Mario game has touched the epicness of the final fight in SMW. The introduction of the clown flying vehicle, a staple of the franchise. Odyssey is the closest, maybe tied with Galaxy. I don't want to spoil anything but that one capture near he end is insane.

Those are my four parameters so far and this leaves both games tied in my book.

Terrible poll results. It's all about hype. Super Mario World is the real king of this list. And Odyssey is an amazing game, but it is not the best of them all. I could give it the best 3D Mario vote, but 2D Marios are were the real magic of the series happened.

SMW>SMB3>NSMBW>SMB>Odyssey>SM64

That's my ranking. Maybe I'm just older than most around here.

I had to check the Galaxy box, although is not completely fair. I haven't finished Odyssey and I am falling in love with it.

A lot of people don't seem to get it. Doom is not CoD. Doom is a very Arcade-style FPS. It's fast and fun, and great to pick up and play for a little while. Of course there are slower missions to pace the experience.

I own Doom on PS4, I play online multiplayer. I will get it on Switch. It is expensive for an older game, but It seems they really did their job porting it. It is a pretty big game on PS4. 60 gb at least.

I fell in love with Super Mario Odyssey yesterday. The game is brilliant and crazy fun.

It should sell a ton of consoles more.

This reminded me of Alien Syndrome which was a bit underrated in my opinion on the Wii. At least I had a blast playing it with a friend back in the days.

I haven't played through the whole thing, but I wouldn't give it a 10. I think you can compare it to other Mario titles, both 3D and 2D, and it is just not up there with Super Mario World, Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Galaxy. Which, to me, are the absolute best. I would say those three get 10s this one gets a 9.

I want to be optimistic, so I'll say it will eventually catch up to the Wii. Maybe not surpass it, but the race will be close.

I am seeing a bit of a fashion trend with the Switch. I'm guessing it won't be long before a couple of celebrities and social media influencers show up with some Switches decorated with some hip skins and what not and then all the wannabe cool kids will buy one.

In this age of deeper digital interaction, it could potentially blow up. Even if it is just for superficial reasons.

I'm jumping between Mario and Wolfenstein: The New Order. Maybe Old Blood, since I'm about to finish the latter.

In Mexico the situation is fine with the Switch but dreadful with the Classics.

They should bring Dead Nation to Switch. That's one of the best twin stick shooters out there.

Best 3D effects I remember were: Ocarina of Time, A Link Between Worlds, Kid Icarus: Uprising, Super Mario 3D Land and Samus Returns.

I almost always play with the 3D off.

I don't like communist-colored controllers.

I don't know, but I still prefer the regular grey joy cons. I just buy vynil skins for them.

I stopped using motion controls and my game improved tenfold. I guess I'm just old school.

Fun game. Love playing Salmon Run. And i didn't care for the one player story campaign.

My new rule is to buy DLC only after I finish the main story. I have bought season passes before, and by the time they arrive, I'm done with that game.

That's why I didn't get the BotW DLC, and I'm thankful. Great game, I played like 180 hours in a two months period, and right now I just want to do something else.

I think Rabbids got a bad rep because of the minions. But they do slapstick comedy quite well. I like them.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE yeah... and I have like 16 games or so, I got my Switch in june. And I am fine...

84 games! That's a lot. I really stopped buying games after realizing that I just won't be able to play them...

I'm currently playing Wolfenstein: The new order on PS4 in anticipation for Doom on the Switch. If Doom lives up to the task, I will wait to get the Switch version of this game. If not, well PS4 will do just fine.

I hope the next Zelda is even further from the old. They should even make a Survival Horror mainline Zelda. I believe they should go nuts.

Breath of the wild is brilliant. Maybe just do HD remasters of the ENTIRE Zelda catalog to satisfy the purists. But I can't go back to: find Bow, find Hammer, find Hookshot, find Bomb bag. It was a tired formula.

I also thought of a Tactical espionage Zelda. BOTW kind of has it, but I mean a real duck-for-cover, place-traps, use-gadgets espionage game, all done with the Zelda aesthetic and lore. Where the gadgets, such as the beetle from Skyward Sword could be used to infiltrate a dungeon and going in and out without being spotted.

I agree with the enemy variety and dungeons point. Shrines were fine, but not memorable. They didn't have distinct personalities like dungeons. The same with the Divine Beasts, they were all beige and dull and repetitive.

Most of my inner circle jumped ship between the PS and PS2 era and never came back. Most of my friends know nothing of Nintendo games anymore. I think it is a trend in Latin America. No one at my office has a Switch, no one in my family or my immediate circle. They all have consoles, though. X Boxes and PS4s.

It's weird. I love my PS4. I think something like the Last of Us is probably the greatest game ever developed, but still, I do have that feeling that Nintendo has a certain magic that I can't let go. I wish more people around here felt it too.

This site is the only place I can come to share that.

I am playing Wolfenstein: The new order, on PS4.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE your "old port" argument may work with first party Nintendo titles, but it doesn't have much traction with a game like Doom. Because it came out before the Switch existed, and it is the latest Doom game. It is not a port of last gen console game, it is a current product. And if the Switch had been out when it came out, we could assume that it would have gotten it at the same time as the other consoles

On the other hand, if I may be so bold, I have seen some of your comments on the site and I think i have a solution to your beef with Nintendo: You should bail until the next gen. Forget about Nintendo for while, don't buy a Switch. And I don't mean just in terms of your gaming, but also on the sites you visit. It is clear that your general opinion is based on you not owning a Switch, because if you did, you would love it like the rest of us.

I don't mean to be pedantic, but I don't see the point on the endless criticism of a product you don't really know first hand, when you can actually make your opinion matter with your money.

Unless you like arguing online, which is fine, too.

I like Fire Emblem. It's not my favorite franchise, but I enjoy it. The only Warriors game I've ever played was Hyrule Warriors, which I enjoyed enough to buy both for the Wii U and the 3DS. But for some reason I'm not interested in this. Maybe it is because of the cool upcoming lineup of the Switch. I'd rather spend my money on Doom, LA Noire, Super Mario, etc.

I can't get any of these, I got Wolfenstein: The New order AND Old Blood for the PS4 in preparation for my Switch version of Doom.

Of course I'm getting the on-the-go version. If it goes down good I met get the original full-blown PS4 version at a Cyber-Monday price.

I have been playing the hell out of it. I'm a regular with FIFA. I don't buy them every year, but I do enjoy them a lot.

This one is great. I get people that go after the best version, but I've been taking this to the office and I wouldn't have it any other way. It plays great.

I own the 3DS version of this game. I love it. I would double dip if they released a physical version with all the DLC included.

This is the first time in many weeks that I've checked the "nothing for me this week" box.

I have way too many games to play, and very little time to do so.

Nintendo should make a new 2D Metroid for the Switch inspired by Metroid: Samus Return. I know it is probably imposible, because of Prime 4, but still, it would be a great thing to play.

Killer Instinct was the last fighting game I was ever good at. Both this one and the N64 version. I still have both with their boxes and booklets and everything.

Great list. Still missing Secret of Evermore which I love.

I think this game is great. Fifa on the go, I love it. I'm thinking about getting the PS4 version for when I am at the house, but either way this looks really good on my TV.

I'm having a blast. I bring it to the office and play with separate Joy-cons and it is the first time that I feel like I am in one of those Switch commercials.

@AcesHigh thanks, man. I'm actually enjoying my FIFA 18 Switch so much, I'm happy anyway.

My story is rather bleak. I had a pre-order for like two months or so. Suddenly I get an email telling me that the deadline had pass on my payment and the pre-order was cancelled. I saw the email but I couldn't go to any store and try to work out my situation until ten days after I got that email. Why? Well... The email arrived on September the 19th, and I live in Mexico City. So, if you read the news, you'll know we had a pretty massive earthquake that day. So at a time like that you can't get pissed of about a trivial thing like a game console.

But after the literal dust had settled I got angry. I know I shouldn't be mad, and maybe I should value more that I didn't lose as much as other people. But still... So what I did yesterday was donate the full cost of SNES mini to the Red Cross as symbolic gesture.

It didn't help, I'm still pissed. But hey, at least I get to live and complain with you bunch of nerds. Love.

I own a PS4, but I should be getting the Switch version on the mail. I think it looks good enough for a fun portable game.

I'm no too big on FIFA, since I'm more of a American Football fan, although I would never call this game soccer, since I am an educated person.

Joking aside, I'm glad to have a proper FIFA on the go.

I wish Nintendo did something like the PS+ free games with the VC. It would be cool to have a rotating catalog of games you could play as long as you pay for the online subscription.

This is great news. I definitely could double dip on GTA V.

This is the first time in forever that I'm more excited about third party games than Nintendo games. Seriously my top goes like this:

1) Doom
2) Skyrim
3) LA Noire
4) Super Mario Odissey
5) FE Warriors.

I know I'm in the minority here, but still. The Switch rocks.

I loved what I saw in Fifa 18 for the Switch. I ordered a physical copy. I hope enough people get it so the online servers are active for long sessions.

My pre-order was pushed to November. I am so pissed.

A Sega Kid???? Really???? You should be embarrassed...

Just kidding. The SNES is my favorite console of all-time. Loved those old school JRPGS and one of my favs was the american made Secret of Evermore, that was sadly eclipsed by the more successful Chrono Trigger. Still, one of my favorite games of all time.

I think I could make a great hidden gem and some not so hidden gems version of the SNES mini. With games like Act Raiser, Illusion of Gaia, Aero the Acrobat and some more that I can't remember off the top of my head.

Took them long enough that I no longer care.

The fondest memory I have is playing The Legend of Zelda a Link to the Past with my mom translating for me, because I didn't speak english at the time (I am from Venezuela).

My first Nintendo memory was my NES bundled with Super Mario 2, which I thought was the standard for Mario games... Little did I know.

Nintendo is a huge part of my life. I made a lot of great friends sharing Nintendo games back when it was almost impossible to buy new ones in my home country.

I'm lucky enough to own both a Switch and a PS4, so I don't have too much problems. I will get both Doom and Wolfenstein 2 on my Switch for the portability. I don't mind playing Monster Hunter World on PS4 since I don't like that franchise on portable. The same with bigger more graphically driven franchises like Uncharted, GTA, etc.

However, the Switch has become the main console since last month. The portable aspect is brilliant. Fifa 18 Switch, here I come.

This game is crazy fun. I started doubting it, I though it was slow to pick up, but once you start switching weapons and party members and messing around with the skill tree, the game becomes adictive. I hope they support it with DLC in the future, and I can't begin to fathom how cool an online multiplayer both competitive and co-op could be.

I just want to say that I got Samus Returns day one and I don't want it to ever end. Awesome game. Makes me wish they did the same with every 2D Metroid game plus an original entry.

I don't care if they're all made for the 3DS, I just want more.

I went full Bethesda: Doom, Wolfenstein 2 and Skyrim were my favorite.

My most wanted list is now mainly a third-party part list: LA Noire, Fifa 18, Skyrim and now DOOM and Wolfenstein 2.

I sincerely think those games are gonna be big sellers on the system as well.

I still don't know why, but I'm less hyped about Xenoblade Chronicles 2 now. Somehow I felt it was just more of the same.

I really believe the N3DS is my most solid console right now in terms of lineup. I own around 50 games between mayor releases and small indie and VC titles.

It annoys me when I see people asking developers to abandon the 3DS in favor of the Switch. I get it, I own a Switch, but the 3DS is still my airport/bus/travel console and it will continue to be for many years. So the more games and support it gets, the happier I'll be.

The only game I would like to see ported to the Switch with proper dual analog stick controls is Kid Icarus Uprising. That game is a blast and should look amazing on a big HD screen.
