Re: 2D Fighter Pocket Rumble Is Finally Launching On Switch Next Month

BradC40

This has to be the most overrated game in Switch's short history. Why does everyone care about this ridiculous game??? It doesn't even look 8 bit, more like 4. There are far better fighting games out already or coming soon like Smash, Dragon Ball & Street Fighter.

Looks terrible. Was it on Game Boy? Ridiculous.

Re: WWE 2K19 Might Be Skipping Nintendo Switch

BradC40

I saw some YouTubers play this on the Switch when it came out, they even covered the patches that came out after. 2K never could get it right. A wise decision to skip the Switch this year. I doubt they're even devoting any resources to getting it right. We may not see WWE again. With so many games available, I won't miss it.

Re: E3 2018: What Do You Want To See From Nintendo At E3?

BradC40

Wishful thinking but I'd like a Metroid Prime trilogy to drop soon, heard they did this years back so I doubt they'll do it again. I missed them all, and if its a given that 4 comes out 2019, I think a rerelease of the trilogy this year would be a good thing, at least for me.

Re: Nintendo Download: 31st May (North America)

BradC40

A free Pokémon game? Sure I'll take it. Honestly, it doesn't look like I'll be all that interested but who knows, might be better than I think.

I'm glad all Pokémon fans get something. A free game for sure, but the casual fans have the two upcoming games in November and your more hard core fans get a Gen 8 game (hopefully) in 2019.

Re: The Virtual Console Isn't Coming To Switch, Nintendo Confirms

BradC40

I get it. Indies are doing so well why stifle a good thing? If people decide to buy a bunch of Nintendo's retro games they'll be less likely to buy a bunch of indies. Indies are selling well. If the quality of the top indies goes down then maybe Nintendo will pull the trigger and offer virtual counsel in the future. But it doesn't look well for that scenario.

Jotun: Valhalla Edition is right up my alley, Norse mythology, usually am into games dealing with the subject. I will be downloading this.

I've been both a lover & hater of the Switch E shop. Lots of subpar games to sift through but there are gems that make it worth it!

Re: Gallery: Japan Goes Absolutely Potty About Nintendo Labo

BradC40

Glad Labo is having success, even though at this point its just perceived success since its too early for sales numbers. I'm in my 40's and this just doesn't appeal to me at all, but its not meant to. Labo is something my little nephews will like & I think its cool Nintendo is marketing something to this audience. Kudos!

Re: Rumour: Pokémon Switch's Release Date Could Be As Early As November This Year

BradC40

We already know Nintendo would like to get this out for the holiday 2018. This really doesn't add new information. But would be a great year for N if they did. To have Smash & Pokémon in back to back months to finish the year...both system sellers. Switch could hit 30 million units sold in first 2 years if Pokémon does come out this year. Would be nice.

Re: Talking Point: Does Sega's AGES Announcement Mean The Virtual Console Is Dead?

BradC40

Virtual counsel is dead, at least as we know it. As Youtuber BeatEmUps recently explained, indies have flourished on the Switch. Nintendo wants them to continue to do well since it still remains to be seen if we'll get a lot of third party support and Nintendo can't just keep coming out with AAA games month after month (as we're seeing in the first half of this year).

There will be some classic games made available but by and large Nintendo doesn't want their classics to compete with the indies. They'll just continue to put out mini's every holiday season and cash in with that.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend?

BradC40

Switch Eshop sales for me this weekend. Oxenfree was only $5 & I'm already an hour in. Good story so far. Noticed Robonauts is only $3 so will download that later today & will also get Graceful Explosion Machine for $6-something. 3 games for less than $15, a steal!

Re: Sega Teases "Huge Announcement" To Be Revealed Tomorrow

BradC40

I think they're overselling it, whatever it is. The only HUGE thing I can think of is them getting in the home counsel market again and that ain't happening. Sega's retro games showing up on a system would be welcome news for many, but hardly huge. Same for a brand new game.

Re: Review: Gal*Gun 2 (Switch)

BradC40

I think I'll give this a try. Looks like a lot of fun, though I do agree I would think it'd get repetitive unless there's more to the game. If this were released last year I don't think I'd get it. There was a great game released every month. Now, there doesn't seem to be too much coming out that I'm interested in so I'll give it a try.

Re: Nintendo Download: 12th April (North America)

BradC40

I chose nothing for me this week but have a couple of YouTube reviews to go through for Burly Men at Sea and Don't Starve. These two are maybe's for me, though the reviews will have to really impress me if there's any chance of me buying. Heard Oxenfree is $5. If so may get that instead.

Re: Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1 And 2 Confirmed For Switch

BradC40

I'll pick up at least the first of the X series since I haven't played any of them. If I get around to beating all of them then maybe the next set of games. I picked up the original legacy collection on 3ds when I owned one. Though I loved those games growing up I got bored of them pretty quickly second time around. I won't be getting those again. Nostalgia is nice but not necessary.

Re: Video: Here's What Wolfenstein II Looks Like Running On Nintendo Switch

BradC40

@OorWullie Your logic sounds right for Wolfenstein 2. I'm still a little miffed that Spyro isn't coming to Switch yet and even if it does it'll be much later. That's where I decided that I had so many games to still beat plus all the upcoming ones this year, that I'd skip games that aren't day and date releases. Unfair to some, like Wolfenstein, but the Switch is over a year old now and I'm hoping to see more day & date releases soon. Hope the day comes soon where we don't get games later than everyone else.

Re: Spyro: Reignited Trilogy Is Finally Officially, But Switch Is Left Out In The Cold

BradC40

Looks like I'd be interested in this. I'm still into platformers. But...I'm going to start boycotting games that aren't day & date releases. Ports of games that came out long ago are fine but if today a company releases a game for Xbox & Playstation & releases the Switch version months later I'm not going to reward that behavior by buying that game. I'm going to avoid it at all costs. That goes for you too Wolfenstein 2.

No soup for you!!!
