I'm still not over that lyric drop when Kirby landed after the explosion. I'm not usually an emotional person, but I actually wanted to cry tears of joy when I heard the theme start to play.
Glad they fixed that chain attack issue. It was really jarring having to pause in the heat of battle to wait for the character select to register. Made me have a mini heart attack each time cause I thought I messed something up.
All this is cool and all, but did ya'll see that air game on the Doom Slayer? Crazy! Looking forward to dive bombing the literal hell out of those demons!
@Nincompoop It's funny cause the developers at Quakcon made it sound like hitting 60 fps for the other systems was essential to feel of the gameplay experience.
But hey whatever man. I'm just happy it's really coming to Switch.
That's so cool! I always wondered what it was like to speak gibberish into a microphone and have it sound good. I wish we got to hear what their actual unfiltered voices sounded like though.
Eh, I'm sure a quick Google search will clear things up.
@Mathias_Wolfk Bro I think that's the best looking one of the bunch! I'd probably get it if I hadn't already bought the normal Splatoon 2 pro controller.
I don't think most people here recognize how much of a niche community Miiverse actually was in its heyday. Lots of people seem to know it as just a community where Nintendo owners posted game-stuff. But it wasn't JUST that.
There were artists, there were memes, there were "wars", and so many other back ally things that happened on Miiverse that made it unique, very much like any other social media platforms. Most people I guess just didn't have the time to dive into it all.
@Kalmaro Dude, trust me, IT DOES. The game is only $12 on the eShop, and honestly having played it close to completion, it feels like it should've been more worthy of a $20 price tag.
After reading these comments, I feel like I'm part of a minority of Switch owners that considers the low battery life to be the system's most glaring issue.
Mainly because it's something that's not easy to fix on the system without shelling out the extra cash to get a portable charger. But also because I've discovered recently that I'm actually terrified to use the Switch with me on long car rides (like the 3+ hour one I took to Philadelphia last week) because I don't like the idea of having my time exploring Hyrule cut short by a low battery warning.
I love love LOVE the idea of the Switch being a home console AND a mobile one. And I want to be able to use both features to their full extent. But that's difficult to do when the Switch's biggest and most taxing games only last you a little over 2 hours. :/
@Dakt People have actually tried that. Someone replied to me on reddit today with their story of how they and their friend completed the game one joycon each.
@Ryu_Niiyama I envy you. Went to the midnight release for the Switch, they had extra BotW special editions, but I decided to turn it down to save money.

Re: Nintendo Download: 2nd November (North America)
@flapjack-ashley I get that, but what about the digital download. So many other games pop up on the eShop weeks before they're even released.
Re: Nintendo Download: 2nd November (North America)
Why is Sonic Forces STILL not on the eShop?

Re: "Rental Avatar" Feature Shown Off in New Sonic Forces Footage
I'm so happy we're finally getting more stage footage from this game! I have good feelings about Forces.
Might not be as good as Sonic Mania, but it's not Sonic Mania to begin with.
Re: Sonic Forces Producer Discusses the Breadth of Content Available
I'm pretty optimistic for Forces.

Re: Video: Sonic Forces Trailer Showcases Gameplay, Along With Familiar and New Foes
@wazlon I heard from GameXplain that the Switch version currently only runs at 30fps, vs the PS4 version which is 60fps.
But the downgrade doesn't bother me, since it's Sonic and I'll take what I can get on the Switch.
Re: Video: Sonic Forces Trailer Showcases Gameplay, Along With Familiar and New Foes
Dunno about ya'll, but Forces is lookin' pretty rad.
