@wanghosom Panzer Dragoon's remake is one of my favorite games released this year, incredibly happy experience for me. So lovingly made! I think it's a disservice to call them a shovelware publisher, that would be like saying Wayforward is known for making decent licensed games.

If it had more recognizable moe manga like Nagatoro, or lewd ecchi stuff, I'd consider it. Having a convenient way to read manga on my big TV using a controller sounds kinda cool. Will have to load up the app and look at their selection.

@VoidofLight DQ11 hit the 3DS in Japan. I give it a 90% chance it hits Switch. The 10% is if Nintendo has moved on to a new hit console by the time this game releases - not likely.

@Dirty0814 Yeah, Super Switch is perfect, I think. I do have to mention, though, that the chip supply problems that are hitting the XSX/PS5 are also partially hitting Nintendo's Switch supply, but significantly less, thankfully. They don't share the same 7nm node, but they would both require substrate and all the other physical materials that go into these chips.

Heck, we've got issues with getting computer chips for cars these days! Crazy shortages. I'm honestly stunned Nintendo has Switch consoles in stock almost all the time at my local store, they did a dang good job keeping stock during all these shenanigans. I give it an 80% there are Super Switch shortages for the first three months, and I give it a 60% chance that they resolve their shortages before Microsoft and Sony do.

It's not going to be the "Switch Pro," that name is antithetical to Nintendo's way of doing things. Also it's a Sony console thing, and Sony is Nintendo's #1 competitor. Stop pushing that name.

I sorta suspect Super Switch, "New Switch" or something totally new and weird.

Is Nintendo trying to sour me on the Switch? Seriously, this and the lack of support for old eShop purchases... I've been glued to my PC and XSX for the past like six months, Switch has been sorta neglected. It's still my favorite current console, in theory, but my Joy-Con drift ruins the portable aspect of the console, soooooooo

Ooh. I dug Tangledeep enough after getting it on Switch to repurchase it in DRM-free form on GOG, plus DLC for both platforms. I'll keep an eye on this one. Not sure I'm interested in a Tetris RPG, but Tangledeep was such a good "Mystery Dungeon" game that I'm still excited.

Interested, but only if it were $20 or less. If I've gotta wait for a sale, I'll wait for sub-$10. My backlog is already packed.

Nearly every time I come to this site, it asks me to accept all cookies. I always have to customize and manually deny all the non-essential cookies. Big nuisance.

Game looks interesting, anyways, hope it's good.

Lame response from some bozos, but honestly, wouldn't they just use some upscaled emulation just like with the Mario 3D All-Stars trio? Same thing, similar principle. I've already got the Prime Trilogy on my Wii U, and with Wii remote controls, so I'm not really interested in a Switch port of the trilogy. Maybe if they're 1080p 60FPS and it's $40, and on one cartridge, but that's not how Nintendo rolls these days.

@Ganner Genetics and metabolism, man. I was a pretty inactive kid, ate nothing but garbage and was glued to my video games. I was a little underweight as a kid, and I look great at age 29. Beefcaaaaaaake

@rushiosan I don't remember the fairy sounds when waggling, but I actually dig the lack of free camera. Not having to fiddle with a stick to use the camera felt so much more intuitive, like with Ninja Gaiden.

I've been playing PlayStation Move games lately, like House of the Dead 4 and Resident Evil 5, and I really, really miss games feeling like games. Controllers as toys FTW! Bring it back! ;~;

@rushiosan I strongly prefer the Wii version over the Gamecube or Wii U versions. The Wii remote controls were some of my favorite implementations of motion controls ever. Aiming with the bow felt great, and I was much more engaged by swinging the remote to slash than pressing a button. I also liked TP's swordplay far better than Skyward Sword's.

I would've bought the Wii U version, but the lack of Wii remote support destroyed it for me, zero interest. At this point, my favorite way to play TP is through an emulator, 4K60FPS, with a Wii remote.

@Tuffasagong Edit: Misread your comment. I'm 29, Apogee were important back then. Me being older just makes me more sane and normal in that area.

"Male, female or non-binary-"

Hard pass. Had me at Apogee, lost me at weird fringe gender politics. Gender non-binary does not exist.

Ooooh, if it's priced right I'll pre-order. I LOVE lightgun games!

@Kr96 Regarding closed platforms, duh. Regarding quality, Steam and the Switch have allowed significantly worse games, from an objective perspective.

They can choose to reject games that they dislike, I can choose to talk smack about them over it. Rules are rules, they didn't break guidelines, their game is just disliked by most people, me included. From a principled perspective, they should've been allowed a platform.

@Giancarlothomaz Duh. Name one rule he broke. "The content was offensive to our coastal elite sensibilities" isn't valid. The game's cringe garbage, but these platforms rejecting it is a huge knock against them. Have some principles.

@EarthboundBenjy Hurr durr muh soggy knees! These games are cringe pick-up artist FMVs. They're cringe, but it's nothing to get triggered over. If it's not for you, it's not for you.

No need to go labeling things, I was shocked when I showed the trailers to some chick friends of mine without context and they wanted to play it. My kneejerk reaction was "noooo, that's cringe, these are bad! Play a real game!" but instead I just rolled with it.

It's not for me, but the suppression of stuff that meets ratings board standards angers me. Freedom of speech and expression is infinitely more important than your feefees.

It totally cut the multiplayer? That sucks. The Switch could use some classic multiplayer arena shooters, especially split-screen ones. At the moment, our options are close to non-existent.

I bought my first Xbox with the Series X because of the back-compat. Did not buy a PS5, have zero plans to until they take the Japanese market seriously again AND let me play my PS1/PS2 Classics bought on my PS3. Until then, I see the PS3 as a dead-end and buying the PS4 at launch as a mistake.

PC and Nintendo systems are always a guaranteed thing for me, but the PS3 is my favorite console ever because of all the PS1/PS2 games they support. Killing PSN for the PS3/Vita convinced me to buy a second Vita and second PS3 system just for... modification and backup purposes. Kinda sucks that I'd need an OG Xbox and a 360 for full library support on their end, but it's totally understandable and I strongly commend Microsoft's efforts. My XSX has sorta surpassed my Switch and PC since getting it, it's so cool playing 360 games I missed in 4K with rock-solid framerates.

Yuri, grooooss. I like romance stuff, but hard pass on any yuri game ever.

@Bizzyb Give it time, that's what I'm doing. I recently bought the Doom 64 Limited Run Games collector's edition, would be glad to see Doom Eternal get the same treatment - especially if it gets Super Switch enhancements.

I've beaten Doom Eternal like a dozen times, regularly play it on Nightmare difficulty at 4K120FPS and 1080p240FPS with my 6800 XT. Dropping to 720p or below at 30FPS is gonna be painful, but I did the same for Doom 2016 and had a blast. I love the Switch.

@Bizzyb Sure, but it's also a 2015 game. They crunched the numbers and determined it wasn'5 llt worth releasing a physical copy. You can choose not to buy it, like me.

@Bizzyb Those are much smaller games, and they were limited collector's editions released over a decade after their original releases.

"It's time to normalize-"
No. Bruh, you just posted cringe. Who the F doesn't quit games before finishing them? It's literally the norm. No one finished all their games, not unless they have a grand total of seven games in their library.

The only thing I wanna normalize is embracing tradition, rejecting modernity! Also Minish Cap is like six hours long, I once beat it in one sitting. Felt like 2-4 hours, I didn't skip a buncha content.

@Joker13z Seems quite subpar to me. I'd still get the game, given what I expect the scale and variety of the content to be, but I don't expect it to impress in the visuals department.

@jcboyer515 I call them Soyny and Microshaft, those are also good. PC and Nintendo are where it's at this gen. I got an XSX right before Gal Gun Returns was refused a release on the platform, not my kinda game but I only got the system because I thought with GGR hitting the system it was a sign Microsoft were less prudish than Sony. Nope! Adult children, that's what they want us to all be.

@TheBigK I'm the opposite. Because of all the Smash characters, I'm not buying any more fighter passes unless they put Doom Slayer, Travis Touchdown or Ryu Hayabusa in them. Any other characters and it's a hard pass from me. Maaaaybe Master Chief, but I'm not sure that would happen.

Hm. I was a little interested when I heard about it, but the character designs and all the "hurr durr natsies" stuff is a big turnoff. I'll pass, I've got enough shooters to play through already.

@sixrings We don't need anything, but I'd love a Super Switch. 1080p 60FPS in a Wii U port is fine, but games like Witcher 3 and Doom Eternal struggle on the Switch. More power is absolutely welcome, my Switch feels like a total shrimp next to my XSX and PC with a 5800X and 6800 XT in it.

There's no way they'd call it a "Switch Pro," by the way, that's just a PlayStation branding thing that people wrongly assume will apply to the Switch revision. 70% chance it's called the Super Switch, 30% chance it's something weird as heck like "Switchii".

@AlienigenX Cringe. Cops are great.

These Melee fans are so friggin' cringe. They should be politely pushing for a back-compat version of Melee, not whining and having a temper tantrum. I'm glad Nintendo shut down these crybabies. I'm not glad that Nintendo doesn't have backwards-compatibility down like Microsoft currently does. They really need to step up their game in that arena.

Funimation is one of the reasons I pirate a lot of the anime I watch, they're terribad. Bad localizations, adding political propaganda where it didn't originally exist, not paying many of their translators, etc.

I generally buy anime on Blu-ray if it's not published by Funimation or Crunchyroll, but if they had a hand in bringing it over, they don't get my money. Wish the Switch allowed local media files like the PSP or Vita. Heck, the 3DS had a music player.

@RootsGenoa I only ever set R3 as my grenade button on Switch. A for melee/use, left bumper for jumping. I change the heck outta the controls, and thankfully Doom Eternal lets you remap the controls however you like.

On PC I've modified all the weapon keybinds so they're easily accessible in a fraction of a second, it helped me beat the game on Nightmare and shred through all the Master Levels and everything. On XB1 I'm using an Elite 2 controller, so I have jumping, dashing, flame belch and chainsaw mapped to the paddles, but I may change out chainsaw for grenade swap. I highly, highly recommend trying out the Super Gore Nest Master Level in Classic Mode, it's SUCH a thrill! Possibly the most hardcore Doom experience I've yet had.

I would've snagged a Switch copy if they released it on cartridge, but for now I'm either gonna wait for a big sale or for a limited physical release. I really dig having 2016 on the go, but I ended up regretting not having a DRM-free cartridge. Bought it for like $30 on a sale. ;{

@FantasiaWHT Same! I haven't gotten past the Three Houses prologue, I can't stand the waifu crap and the school simulation nonsense. I just want a new Advance Wars game, and a waifu dating sim with SRPG elements will not fill the void.

Guess I'll just stick with AW: Dual Strike and Days of Ruin, the series peaks. :{

@somebread Censorship is intolerable. Why are you okay with it? How's that boot taste? You want a progressive slide into an Orwellian dystopia, hm? It's clear that your support of censorious, authoritarian shenanigans means you're probably projecting when you claim I'm fragile, very interesting.

I dug the originals a bit on PC, but you should've put "censored jokes!" in the negatives of the review and docked it several points. Gross to see some commenters here defending the censorship, hand-waving it away. Product is ruined, shouldn't be played. Just play the originals on PC, these are not a valid option.

Good, original game was trash, hope it ends up being vaporware.

Procedural generation, no thank you. I was kinda expecting something like an FPS from the description, but given that it's another twin-stick shooter... hard pass.

@twztid13 Ryzen 5900X and a 6800 XT should do the trick, already got a nice B550 mobo, a 1TB 5GB/s PCIE 4.0 SSD and 32GB of 4000MHz DDR4. I expect to run many next-gen titles at 1440p 120FPS, but upscaling these days is pretty spectacular. My Ryzen 2700 paired with a Vega 64 and a 1080 Ti already do a pretty good job at 1440p 120FPS on my TV, but I need HDMI 2.1 and the extra VRAM and performance would allow me to dunk on the PS5/XSX.

5900X is actually overkill for 120FPS, I'm getting it for smoother 240FPS on my monitor; occasionally my 2700 is more of a bottleneck for 240FPS than my 1080 Ti. 6800 XT outperforms an RTX 3080 in most games, even outperforms the 3090 in a handful.

@Sensible You say that as a joke, but I'm gonna gonna get an XSX if 120FPS is common on it, and I'm dropping over $1,400 on a GPU, CPU, mobo and faster RAM/SSD this year for a 4K 120FPS gaming PC to go along with my new 4K 120FPS TV. The PC's gonna be twice as powerful as the new consoles, should be able to do upscaled 4K 120FPS in most games next gen.

My Switch will still get a bunch of my playtime, though. Switch/PC master race!

Demanding 120FPS or even 60FPS in all Switch games is unreasonable, but wanting a stable 30FPS is perfectly fine. I thought the demo ran alright, but the prior Hyrule Warriors on Switch ran better and looked a lot cleaner. Hope that Super Switch releases soon and has nice upscaling.

Coria looks like a young boy in the promo art. Wish devs would stop making girls look like boys. It's like they have to be masculine for them to be allowed to be the hero.

Modern female empowerment = make them look like dudes, so dumb.

"Travis’ horndog lust for the likes of Sylvia and the eerily young-looking anime characters he practically drools “moe!” over"

Lust and appreciation of cute things are totally separate. I like moe anime, but not in a sexual way. Always get irked when my cutesy stuff gets sexualized, but yeah, moe for the win.

@yourmom Presumably because he doesn't know what's good.

$24's a little high for me, but only because I'm only marginally into platformers. Definitely need more holiday games in my life.

I would play more in handheld mode, but my left Joy-Con stick drifts and I'm too autistic to bug Nintendo Support about it. I use the Pro Controller and an SN30 Pro Plus in docked mode about 70% of the time, undocked I play games that don't use the left stick or I use a wireless controller. Not ideal, but eh.

I'd buy these, no doubt. Publishers need to start selling manuals again, I cherish those things.

@sanguinekhajiit I'm not confused at all. They virtue-signalled to cover up their immoral degeneracy, all while pushing vile identity politics using 1984-style newspeak. Rest in pieces, Lab Zero.

Shattered Memories is one of my favorite horror games ever, just so good. Her Story and Telling Lies were trash, though, I'd hope he can reign in the cringe and keep things... I dunno, more "normal." SH:SM was just too good, though.
