I heard that the Switch version is much worse than Xbox/PS4. While I usually prefer to play in portable mode on Switch, this may be one I end up playing on PS5 ( when I am able to finally get hopefully at some point in the next couple of months).
Thinking it did not do well on Switch with the cloud edition. A good portion of people accept digital downloads , but thinking that cloud gaming is not that popular.
@Anti-Matter Ty3 was published by Activision, but Krome actually owns it. And Krome released Ty1 without Activision, and is re-releasing Ty2 shorty (again without Activision)
I love how the diehard fans are giving Nintendo a pass on not having Directs anymore. I, for one, loved them and miss them. There was something for everyone in each presentation and would get me excited about Switch’s future and give something to look forward to.
There should be another poll, which one is the easiest and which one is the hardest. I had struggled with the second half of Mario U Deluxe. I had to play a bunch of levels as Nabbit. Maybe it is my age as my reflex is not what it used to be.
I don't mind digital download games but I try not to support cloud games. I am trying to get a PS5, and will most likely pick it up for PS5 at some point.
The majority of these made their way to Switch. Outside of the Zelda games (which could at some point also come to Switch), there is no reason to own Wii-U. I would like to see a Batman Arkham Collection on Switch.
I would instead prefer the original Plants vs Zombies that was on the phone. I had it on Vita and it was a blast. Would revisit again on Switch (I don't play games on the phone).
Scott Pilgrim is awesome, rest is trash. In the last 3 weeks, there have been over 40 games released but only 2 or 3 were good games. Must be this time of the year to dump the garbage games.
Wow, there's people here who actually bought a Wii-U. Jokes aside, I think this more meant for the Switch folks that did not own the Wii-U. And maybe for some Wii-U owners to revisit on Switch with new content.
@Christofu Last of Us 2 was made by Naughty Dog and Ghosts of Tsushima was made by Sucker Punch Productions. Sony owns Naughty Dog and Sucker Punch, so it was in-house development for both games. Not like a 3rd party like Capcom that made these games.
I know that Covid impacted game development, but Nintendo seemed to have gotten lazy this year after New horizons came out. I am not counting the Mario remasters. Sony managed to release two AAA games during COVID: Last of Us 2 and Ghosts of Tsushima. Might be hard to believe but not everyone loves new Horizons. Nintendo is at the top right now, I hope that they don’t get too complacent. I miss Nintendo Directs; I hope that Nintendo has some killer announcements this year.
I play . I now find collecting odd, we all have short life spans, just enjoy the games. When you are gone someday, your loved ones will sell off your collections or they will end up in trash. I used to collect when I was younger, but as I am getting older, I no longer collect and just enjoy the games.
Is this a good acquisition? I mean Next Level doesn’t own any original IP. They are awesome at making Nintendo games but employees come and go. I guess that they have an established environment to make games.
@NTELLIGENTMAN I did say one or two games are actually worth playing. By the way, Gradius 3 was a great game for it's time and I could never get far with the insane difficulty, not sure I want to play it again, now that my reflexes have slowed more with age.
This was a sad Switch year if you don’t care for Animal Crossing. Super Mario 3D All Stars was my highlight. Borderlands games and Hades were runners up for me.
How about rival console owners most likely to own Switch as second console? PS4 and soon PS5 are main consoles. I play Switch for on the go experience. It replaced my Vita.
I had this on PS3, but never got a chance to play it and got rid of my PS3. Might pick this up on Switch. I wonder if this will make its way to PS4/PS5.
@w00dm4n Skyrim is currently on sale for $15.99 on PSN for PS4. It has been on a sale on PSN for under $20 several times in the past. There is no excuse for Doom 2016, Wolfenstein 2, and Skyrim to still be $60 regular price on Switch, especially on the eshop. They should be $30 regular price before a sale.
With the exception of the newer games, this is pretty much a repeat from Black Friday digital sale from last year. Doom, Diablo 3, Dark Souls, Skyrim , etc. had the exact same sale prices last year. Shouldn’t those games have a bigger discount this year?
I bought Switch to play games on the go. Not interested in Cloud games on Switch. I play One and PS4 on my tv. I will play this game on PS5, which is replacing my PS4.

Re: Nintendo Direct To Air Tomorrow, Wednesday 17th February
I hope that there are not too many announcements of cloud based games.

Re: Star Wars: Republic Commando Appears To Be On The Way To Switch
SW Bounty Hunter was fun on PS2. Bring that over next.

Re: Get Ready For More Remasters From Activision Blizzard In 2021
How about these Activision remasters:
Singularity
Interstate 76
Blur
Ultimate Alliance 1&2
True Crime
X-men Origins: Wolverine
Re: Apex Legends Launches On Nintendo Switch This March
What I really want from EA is NHL, Madden and Mass Effect trilogy on Switch.
Re: EA Sports Is Bringing Back College Football Games After 8 Year Hiatus
I would rather see Madden on Switch. Not a cloud edition, even if it is a downgrade.
Re: Nintendo Of America Job Listing Offers Hope That Nintendo Directs Aren't Dead After All

Re: Poll: What's The Best 2D Mario Game?
There should be another poll, which one is the easiest and which one is the hardest. I had struggled with the second half of Mario U Deluxe. I had to play a bunch of levels as Nabbit. Maybe it is my age as my reflex is not what it used to be.
Re: The Lord Of The Rings: Gollum Has Been Delayed, Will Now Arrive In 2022
It will probably be cancelled on Switch or it will get another cloud version.
Re: Poll: Will You Be Buying The Cloud Version Of Hitman 3 On Nintendo Switch?
I don't mind digital download games but I try not to support cloud games. I am trying to get a PS5, and will most likely pick it up for PS5 at some point.
Re: Feature: Best Wii U Games
@stinky_t Zombi is not that great. I played it on Xbox One and found rather boring and average looking graphics wise.
Re: Feature: Best Wii U Games
The majority of these made their way to Switch. Outside of the Zelda games (which could at some point also come to Switch), there is no reason to own Wii-U. I would like to see a Batman Arkham Collection on Switch.
Re: Kingdoms Of Amalur: Re-Reckoning Is Coming To Switch With DLC Included
Glad I did not pick it up on PS4. Feels like this will get more time spent playing on the go.
Re: Switch Listing For Plants Vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville Surfaces Online
I would instead prefer the original Plants vs Zombies that was on the phone. I had it on Vita and it was a blast. Would revisit again on Switch (I don't play games on the phone).
Re: Hideki Kamiya Hopes To Share An Update About Bayonetta 3 At Some Point In 2021
This game was announced in 2017. The way it is going, maybe we will see it on Switch 3.
Re: Capcom Broadcasting Resident Evil Showcase Next Week, Will Feature RE: Village And "More"
I don't mind digital games, but I really don't like this trend towards cloud games if rumors about RE3 are true.

Re: Soapbox: When Is The Next 'Big' Nintendo Direct? Oh, Does It Really Matter Anymore?

Re: Select Neo Geo Games On The Switch eShop Are Currently 50% Off
$3.99 should be the regular price, not the sale price.
Re: Nintendo Download: 8th January (North America)
Wow, 18 games that are average or below average. Last week was the same.
Re: Nintendo Switch Sold More Than Every Other Console Combined Last Year In The UK
PS5 would have more sales if more units were available. I have been unsuccessfully trying to get one since it was released.
Re: Feature: Ten Arcade Games We'd Love To See On Switch
Simpsons and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles should be on this list
Re: Nintendo "Laughed Their Asses Off" At Microsoft's Buyout Offer
I wouldn't mind if Sony or Microsoft merged with Nintendo. It would mean less consoles to buy.
Re: Talking Point: Are You A Player Or Collector?
I play . I now find collecting odd, we all have short life spans, just enjoy the games. When you are gone someday, your loved ones will sell off your collections or they will end up in trash. I used to collect when I was younger, but as I am getting older, I no longer collect and just enjoy the games.
Re: Nintendo Is Buying Luigi's Mansion Studio Next Level Games
Is this a good acquisition? I mean Next Level doesn’t own any original IP. They are awesome at making Nintendo games but employees come and go. I guess that they have an established environment to make games.
Re: Nintendo Download: 31st December (North America)

Re: Nintendo Download: 31st December (North America)
Wow, that's a lot of garbage games. Switch gets tons of new games each week, but usually one or two are actually worth playing.
Re: Feature: Nintendo Switch Ports We'd Love To See In 2021
These sound great but I don't want cloud or stream versions.
Re: Feature: Best Nintendo Switch Ports Of 2020
Control has no place on this list. It is not a port, it is streamed. And I can’t bring it on the go.
Re: Feature: Nintendo Life's Switch Game Of The Year 2020
This was a sad Switch year if you don’t care for Animal Crossing. Super Mario 3D All Stars was my highlight. Borderlands games and Hades were runners up for me.
Re: Switch Owners "Most Likely" To Own A Rival Console, 2020 Study Shows
How about rival console owners most likely to own Switch as second console? PS4 and soon PS5 are main consoles. I play Switch for on the go experience. It replaced my Vita.
Re: Konami Announces Yu-Gi-Oh! Rush Duel Is In Development For Switch
The only games I want to hear announced from Konami are Silent Hills and Metal Gear Solid, even if it is just the remastered games of past entries.
Re: Double Dragon Neon Elbows Its Way Onto Switch This Month
I had this on PS3, but never got a chance to play it and got rid of my PS3. Might pick this up on Switch. I wonder if this will make its way to PS4/PS5.
Re: Quantic Dream Is Bringing Sea Of Solitude: The Director's Cut To Switch In March
@Razer Maybe you saw a different trailer than I did, but the trailer really makes the game look good on Switch.
Re: The Next Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Fighter Will Be Revealed During The Game Awards
Great to see Smash support but maybe it is time for Nintendo to redirect their Smash support staff to work on another non Smash game.
Re: Dragon Quest XI S And Dragon Quest Builders 2 Receive Permanent Price Reductions
Any yet , other 3rd party games like Diablo 3, Doom 2016, Skyrim , etc are still $60
Re: Nintendo Reveals The Top 15 Most-Downloaded Switch Games In November 2020 (Europe)
Good to see something other than 1st party and Minecraft here. I want to see 3rd parties succeed more here.
Re: Bethesda Cyber Sale Discounts All DOOM Games, Skyrim And Wolfenstein On Switch (North America)
@Retro_Player_77 It is a shorter campaign, costed less to make, and did not get good reviews like Wolfenstein 2 did.
Re: Bethesda Cyber Sale Discounts All DOOM Games, Skyrim And Wolfenstein On Switch (North America)
@w00dm4n Skyrim is currently on sale for $15.99 on PSN for PS4. It has been on a sale on PSN for under $20 several times in the past.

Re: All Abylight Studios Switch Games Are Now 50% Off For Black Friday
Only 50%? Was hoping for a deeper discount.
Re: Sam & Max Save The World Is Being Remastered For Nintendo Switch
@backup368 it was on sale for $2 at one point on digital store .
Re: Poll: Which Will Be Your Second Console - PS5 Or Xbox Series X?
PS5 will be my primary console. Switch is and will continue to be my secondary console/handheld to play on the go.
Re: Talking Point: Cloud Gaming On Switch – The Pros And Cons Of The Cloud

Re: New Discovery Suggests Crash Bandicoot 4 Might Be Coming To Nintendo Switch
I hope that it is not another cloud game.
Re: Hitman 3 Is Coming To Switch, Just Don't Try To Play This One Offline
@ianl579 This is a no go for me. I play on the 1 hour commuter train ride. Wifi or hotspot is not an option.
