have ya'll seen that forgive me father is coming to switch? EB games australia leaked it

@WaffleBoat me too waffle boat, me too

@karlhendrikse right!? that's my problem with sparks, it's like kindom battle 0.5 in a lot of ways, why does the loading screen come up for just opening the menu? why are the only skins now? why the hell can't you play as rosalina post game? why are the special ability animations all the same now and interrupt gameplay? it's all a death by a thousand cuts for me. i'm sure it's probably a fun enough time but i just couldnt get over how less it is compared to kingdom battle that i stopped playing 5 hours in and then traded it in to get tears of the kingdom for free

i loved the first one but i don't know exactly why but i can't stand sparks of hope. The music of course is not the problem, but kingdom battle felt way more focused and like mario and team waging a war to protect the mushroom kingdom. I really hate how sparks does the like pokemon thing where all battles (so far at least) take place in like this void. the immersion (never thought i'd use that phrase in a mario game) just felt weird.

@Cashews yeah fair enough, i'd agree to disagree, i also think multiverse stories are becoming a cheap gimmick and that unless there's a meaninful reason beyond shallow fan service ya shouldn't use it. I do still think the whole alternate timeline thang was terribly done, though a cool enough idea following on from the end of 2, jeanne and bayo im pretty sure were heavily implied and all im saying that if they were to pair bayo up with anyone, it should have been with someone with prior genuine mutal chemistry. also the science fiction motiff would have been better as a traditional biblical fantasy. But also while i really, really begrudge what bayo 3 turned out to be, i did actually enjoy playing it and if you love it, power to ya

@Cashews it's clear you love bayo 3 and i love that u love it, but i just can't understand why they did what they did. to me the game was just abysmally disappointing in all aspects but the combat. i want to love it, like really, but i just can't get over all the problems that the game has. eg. the left field romance between luka and bayonetta, he was always a buffoon and any affection bayo had shown him in previous games was either sarcastic or purely platonic, jeanne should have been the love interest that would have made sense. then jeanne being stabbed in the back felt just contrived seeing as she's a which who supposedly see's everything coming and is super strong and hard skinned, it felt like she only was killed by that because the plot needed her to. I just feel frustration whenever i think of the story. Aside from the story i loved the weapons and viola was a neat character, i do wish there were three times the amount of costumes you can unlock like in previous games i couldnt believe it when i realised the poultry 6 or whatever were the only ones,(where the hell's the police officer, kamino, swimsuits!?) like come on just transfer the bonus costumes from previous games if you're out of ideas. And i get the game was meant to be open world and they wanted to get 60fps but the graphics just look bad, not terrible, but way worse than even bayo 2 from 8 years ago.

i really hate that zelda just steals our house! wtf i put all the champions weapons on the wall and she chucks that stuff in the garbage and replaces them with her own photos!? also i complete botw 100% but since i replayed it all my progress is carried over from the save file that i only played for like 10 hours with, so no champions picture is in my house, and the only horse i have now is clop, a 3 star horse i used for 10 minutes. WTF

I already own every Bethesda game on switch anyway pls bethesda release dishonored fallout and elder scrolls 3&4 already! I know you want to do what you did with Quake

this makes me sad, it's a LEGO videogame. where supposedly all your dreams of building with all the parts and minifigures you could imagine can come to life, but because of capitalsim now they have to pervert the main great element of a lego videogame just for moneys. hate this

@RadioHedgeFund oh man one could dream right? Seriously why is every company trying to make or find a massive universe to make oodles of spin offs and sequels in? You already have the most richest and spinoff worthy universe there is. History!

Ugh this game really needs a content update to add more endgame rewards. The amount of costumes this game has is pitiful compared to bayo 1 and 2

Ark on switch is now one of the best ports around. It's a redemption story for both Ark and dev grove street games

My top 10 are
1. Apex Legends 93 hours
2. Skyrim 65 hours
3. Warframe 44 hours
4. Overwatch/2 44 hours
5. Ark Survival Evolved 41 hours
6 Dying Light 35 hours
7 Doom Eternal 23 hours
8 Crysis 2 15 hours
9 World War Z 14 hours
10 Nier Automata 14 Hours

Man l guess I really like triple a ports huh

I feel so embarrassed looking at mine, I straight up do not like Apex Legends but it's my most played game of the year because I every month or so I would get addicted to it.

Why do they do this every darn year but don't expand the program to other regions!? I friggin the idea and every bloody year I see this article and hope to God that I can now do it and every damn year I found out "oh sorry bumhead this isn't supported in your region sorry not sorry"

Hey you forgot about the Switch port of Kingdom Come Deliverance!
That was announced almost 18 months ago

what the heck is with you guys asserting that No Man's Sky is "one of the best ports on the system". It's just not. it looks barely less ugly than the Ark port and the frame rate tanks in the late game with base building making the endgame simply not fun. i hate to be a conspiracy theorist but is it because you guys got to interview sean murray before launch? or because you only played it for 10 hours?

it's funny because A Plague Tale and Resident Evil Village are the first cloud games that's available where i live, Sydney Australia. And i tried the RE demo and it was simply unplayable. latency was horrific. But this games' demo ran like butter. weird

@nofriendo alright fair enough, if the core gameplay loop really is just that good then yea power to the players and all that. To me all the marketing makes it out to be an experience about exploration, but if the world looks like an oil painting to me that's just not worth exploring

@Justaguest totally agree. i felt the same about The Outer Worlds switch port. it's just too muddy. it breaks immersion when pop-in occurs everytime you turn around and the graphics are just barely maintaining legibility. i don't understand how these reviewers keep saying things like "it's far from unplayable", like sure it's playable, but is it Enjoyable? i guess they're not actually playing most of these games to completion. or the fact they got to interview the devs softened their critical thinking skills

i havn't played it but these screenshots and a couple performance reviews really don't look nice at all. it looks too muddy to be immersed in the world

@locky-mavo yea i know right!? im someone who rarely will ever be able to tell the difference between 30 and 120fps but even i noticed the dip. image quality and draw distance too.

@wuntyme8 if any of these comes true I will come to your house and do you favors for the rest of my life

YESS DO IT INJECT SKYRIM WITH MODS INTO MY VEINS IM TOO RISKAVERSE TO GET A GAMING PC

It makes me wonder/really hope if there may be a Zelda inspired Costume in Bayonetta 3....that would be mad

Why do the graphics look way worse than Bayonetta 2 from 8 years ago? I am perplexed by that.

I want Vampyr 2!

@Wurstsemmel753 man I sure hope I love no mans sky as much as u do cuz minecraft and skyrim r some of my goats too!

Back in 2018. I bought Ark Survival Evolved on switch at launch from EB Games. 3 hours after that I was back at the same Eb games trading it in and getting the Bayonetta double pack.

Oh man I'd be so excited right now if I hadn't already bought every Bethesda game on switch years ago. Most for full price lol

Knack 2 babeeeee!!!

@Ninja84 awww yea I forgot about Metal Gear 5! That would be...so sick!

I just want Red Dead Redemption 1, maybe even more than I want GTA 5. Switch Ports are kind of 'my strange obsession' but if I got Red Dead Redemption AND Gta 5 I might just throw in the towel, get off the "Switch port rumors" Subreddit and finally start going to therapy

I bought and I really just did not like it very much, the gameplay was just not that compelling for me. And the checkpoints were so infuriating sometimes

I'm stuck in an infinite loading screen just after finishing the tutorial mission and creating my character. Apparently this is common game breaking bug so I simply do not reccomend an unplayable game

Bruh that was my original post from reddit! I'm so happy to see it's being reported on:)

It's actually going to be the Middle Aged man from Sonic 06

Doesn't seem to be happening for any down under switch users:/

I hate how "cosmetic only microtransactions" are now seen as a good thing, like sure it's better than microtransactions infused with the game's leveling progression.
But that's like instead of a city getting nuked, it's just getting carpet bombed.
It's not actually necessary for big games these days to have microtransactions because "the cost of making games is getting too big".
They're doing this because they'll make higher profit, and the idea that a superhero game is going to sell fan favourite costumes on top of the 60 bucks is telling me that one of the most exciting aspects of a superhero game(playing as one's favorite superhero) is going to be monetized, cosmetic or not it still negatively impacts the game's quality

Just a PSA, Warface on switch is now an almost unplayable disaster as since crossplay was added it lags like crazy no matter what region one chooses, it can't be understated how laggy the game is on switch.
The developer has all but abandoned the game only updating it to add new weapons to the shop, also the game is just straight up pay to win with God tier guns being sold for upwards of 50 bucks each.

So nintendolife I reckon you might want to remove warface from future lists

That's a great deal! Too bad I've already bought all of them individually and played them to completion!
Why can't they release a collection of games that aren't already on the switch!?
Give me Fallout Anthology, Wolfenstein quadruple pack, Dishonored collection or even morrowind/oblivion!
Alas, almost definitely wont happen at this point

The Myths of the Eastern Realm expansion for Immortals was pretty fire

.....SUPER MARIO BROTHERS 2 BABEEE GAME OF THE YEAR FOR ALL TIME!....

Oh heck yes! This game is actually so bloody badass! Amazing endgame and the main character is voiced by Mirage from Apex Legends

@Little_Squee if words could make wishes come true! Nah but seriously I will agree with you to my dying breath

@jarvismp With respect mate, you clearly havnt played ARK or Skyforge. The performance Apex on switch is definitely something to criticize and it WILL be a turn off for some. But it is league's more competant than the "worst ports" on switch. I have got the Victory Royale 20 times in my 30 hours so far and dont know how that would have changed if I was playing on my xbox but at the very worst I would say that switch players are at a not insignificant disadvantage in firefights with large numbers of players in a concentrated area. That's when the framerate really does tank
