Bethesda have done a great job with this port. I've put a few hours into this version & i've not come across any bugs yet. Runs great & looks great & playable on the go. I love the Fallout games & 4 has got a stupidly large amount of content in their games. A huge world with secrets, stories & quests everywhere. People can put hundreds of hours into this game & still find something new. That's why these games take decades to make.
Fallout 4 & a new resi. My 2 favourite franchises that aren't Mario or Zelda, releasing in the same week on Switch 2. Unbelievable! The only thing that can top this is a new Mario or Zelda game.
I'm glad i tried the demo. I wasn't sure i'd like the hacking element while dodging & shooting but it works really well. I will get it but not day one due to Resi 9 & Fallout 4 taking up many hours of my playtime this year.
At least in the UK you can ignore RRP (if you want to, or don't want an excuse to constantly complain about prices) Smyths have the game at £49, the same price as MP4 switch 2 edition. Switch 1 edition is £42.99. Meanwhile Amazon have also ignored RRP, going the opposite way and priced them at £70
I pre-ordered Switch 2 with Mariokart in store at Smyths this morning. Also pre-ordered the pro controller & Petey Piranna camera.
I got my OG from Smyths on Midnight launch Day. Wow is it 8 years ago !!!!
Loved this game on gamecube & beyond. I've still got the Gamecube Resi 4 Chainsaw controller.
I loved the earlier games & unlike some i loved Resi 4 when it came out on the Gamecube. I've got this game on Gamecube, Wii, Xbox 360, Series X, Ps3, Ps4 Switch & the recent remaster.
@Breeze23 Breeze2310:56am 90% of my switch games are physical so I'm really hoping that there's backwards compatibility for the next-gen Switch. NSO being carried over would be great too.
Me too. Might be the first time i don't get a Nintendo console on launch day since getting the Gamecube on launch if your digital library of games don't carry over or you can't play your physical Switch games on the thing.
Thanks for the heads up. Just ordered both amiibo from My Nintendo. Pre ordered Super Mario Wonder while i was on there. Don't know why i'll still be playing Starfield and TOTK when it releases !!
Took a chance on this before the review and despite my backlog. Thought i'd give it a quick go yesterday, just to see !! then add it to my backlog. Couldn't put it down. Loving it!
Bitmap Brothers Collection please for Switch. ( or any console ) Either original with a bit of polish or remakes. @ Shiryu Yes !!! a Speedball 3. I went through so many joysticks playing Speedball 2. I was always amazed how much control you had curling the ball, passing, power, shooting etc you had with just a joystick and one button.
@Anti-Matter @SLIGEACH_EIRE ''In my country Indonesia, Finder keeper. Buy early, get early. Who buy late, will almost never get a chance to buy old games. It ever happened to me when I try to order some old games. Indonesia is not USA / Japan / Europe / Australia.''
@MariOnline @Anti-Matter just a tip. The games your buying now will be cheaper December 2017
I would have thought so too. No way could I buy games at launch price, months in advance while I wait to buy the console. Unless it's a limited Collectors Edition I really really want.
@GoldenGamer88 '' Also got a helmet with Last-Ditch Effort but I don't like anything that completely covers my beautiful hair so I'm still looking for one. ''
I've got sunglasses with last ditch effort as the main so look out for them in the shop or on an inkling and order them through Murch. If you see me in the plaza order them from me.
Thanks Nintendolife. Got it and the 2 Amiibo after missing out on the Game pre-order.
Not gonna bother even trying with Game for preorders like this anymore. Wouldn't be so bad if they said out of stock but they keep showing products as available until you go through the process of paying. Seems Game's way of telling you preorders have been fulfilled is by saying your payment failed while still letting you add it to the basket. Game still still show the Metroid Amiibo available until you try to pay for them !!!! ( at £14.99 each !!! )
At least I got this and the 2 Amiibo from Nintendo UK and the SNES Mini from Smyth's preordered.
@Stubi Good idea and could they not utilise data from My Nintendo or do pre-orders through My Nintendo? 1 per household again so it goes to the real fans with play and purchase history and not just for scalpable items.
@Yas Yep, hope Nintendo learnt from NES mini and their Amiibo's. There's more demand and profit out there for them than they think and provide enough stock for the fans and casual shoppers who see these on a store shelf. Perfect Xmas present.
Would love to see the scalpers sitting on a mountain of stock that they even struggle to offload at retail.
@Malcrash Personally no! I always give story mode a go but quickly give up and never touch it again. Multiplayer and Ultimate Team is where It's at for me.
Looks like Fifa on Switch will be getting my money this year.
@Shiryu Went through a few joysticks playing speedball 2 back in the day. Couldn't get the same control when I tried playing it on the 360 with the 360 controller. It seemed to suit a joystick and one button.

Re: FIFA 18 On Switch Runs At 60fps In Both Docked And Handheld Modes
Can't wait for this on Switch. I like what I've seen so far and it looks like EA have put some real effort into the Switch version.
