Re: Feature: Best Point And Click Adventure Games For Nintendo Switch

Wow I’ve played quite a few of these already and really enjoyed them. Thimble weed Park is on my ‘must get it’ list.

One that’s been missed that I recommend is Tuberbrook, it’s not perfect in terms of story but it’s worth a play throughout the physical version comes with a lovely little booklet 😉

@DaniPooo early in movie yes but they are already on the world (notice the great big Diablo)

I fear they have fallen for the age old mistake of thinking that to make it palatable for a wider audience and not just monster Hunter fans, they need to add in the big guns. What a pity. There are plenty people who will willingly watch movies set within a well developed fantasy world but this looks like they have taken fright and tried to ‘modernise’ it.

Re: New Nintendo Patent Suggests A Standalone Switch Joy-Con Could Be On The Way

If we get a tv only ‘upgrade’ I’ll be very disappointed to be honest, I simply can’t get the dedicated tv time to play like that anymore and the whole reason I adore the switch so much is it’s versatile nature. To be able to play on the tv when I can but to just lift out and continue handheld has to be one of the best innovations for some time, one that I’m more than willing to sacrifice some souped up power/performance for...

@Clyde_Radcliffe agreed, honestly all the moaning is actually really starting to get me down... where’s the joy for a total nostalgia trip? That era gave us some of the most fun and immersive games I’ve had the pleasure to play and inspired many more in the same vein, let’s celebrate it people!

It helps perhaps that I really pick and choose which games I spend my money on, I have a fairly meaty Switch game collection but I only spend on the ones I’m certain about, including the indies so the price point doesn’t bother me if I know I’m going to get value for money (which I measure in play time, entertainment value, difficulty etc not how old the game is)

WHY are people so desperate to hold these old games to modern game standards? I’m pumped to get play 64 and galaxy again and sunshine for the first time. For me this is 100% a collectible piece of nostalgia, I’m sure it will play fine, and would far rather Nintendo was using its time to work on those new games we are all desperate for Metroid and BOTW2 for example, than upgrading these massively. Happy to play and remember them as they were.

For YEARS people have clamoured for third party support for Nintendo, now we have it, they aren’t releasing enough of their own stuff 🙃 damned if you do, damned if you don’t me thinks.

I mean, the market is flooded with games, not all of them are anything like worth your time but still...

Star Wars is on my must have list, the original games were fantastic, those and the Indiana ones helped me get pretty hooked on the lego games overall. Little Nighmares 2 is a day one; must get the first out again and have another go. Need to have a proper look through some of the others on here too.

@KryptoniteKrunch not to mention it’s only games they aren’t interested in that people scream about, there seems to be plenty clamouring for the likes of older Mario and Zelda games, some of the Zelda ones would be on at least their third spin too...

For the record, I have no problem with any of the ports, I’m more than happy to see games I’ve missed or particularly loved come back. I tend to sell the my old hardware and software to pay for the new stuff.
