Hope you guys support this. I honestly still can't believe it made its way to the Switch.

I would definitely get FighterZ and Valkyria Chronicles 4 if I could. Those two would leave me set for the month.

@RupeeClock It doesn't include DLC because as you can see, they're not even done with it and it also came out this year. It's not years old.

Not like I would have expected them to, but I'm enjoying all the artwork regardless.

Unless you have Splatoon 2 or one of the few voice chat compatibile games, it is straight useless.

The headline of this article reminds of the "this would be perfect for Switch" memes.

Ohh, I wish I could jump on this. I definitely need to make my Switch games digital.

There's... still more? Sakurai and his team are gods among men.

@NEStalgia We did get information about its modes. They kept one of them in particular a secret though. Probably a story mode which I hope to God it is.

It was a stupid decision in the first place.

I love every single thing about this.

@Vriess What you got against Linkle? She's awesome.

The best thing about this is it spawned even more Super Crown designs like Booette and SHE'S TOP TIER GOD BLESS

What we love about the smartphone app: nothing.

Thanks, Nintendo.

That sucks, but I suppose it was for the best. I doubt they'd go the portable console route like Nintendo either. But I wouldn't mind if they did.

@Switchcraft Yes it is news. Everyone needs to know about our new queen.

Bowsette is a fiesty mama. What a time to be alive.

JET SET RADIOOOOOO

@Cobalt The portable aspect of the Switch is literally it's main selling point. How is it that hard to understand? As for actually playing it in public, let me put it this way.

When I used to have a 3DS, I mostly played that at home. Yeah, I did take it with me, but usually when I'm out, I only get on it if it's taking too long to get to my destination. And to preserve battery life. Didn't really come across many people actually playing, but got plenty of streetpasses, so obviously other people were taking it out and about as well.

Same goes for my Switch. I play it at home for the most part, but it's convenient to never be tied to the TV. I have taken it with me before on trips in the car. I've paced around the house going in different rooms playing. If I choose so, I could take it anywhere I want to because I can.

@Crono1973 It sounds like you're missing the point then. When a game comes to the console, it has the advantage of portability for everything you play. This makes even older games appealing and not to mention, it breathes new life into them as well.

As for playing on the TV, it just gets the job done. It can't compete in the graphics or performance department, but it does what it needs to and gives you a bigger screen to enjoy the games. It's that simple.

I legit cannot remember the last time I used my Switch in tabletop mode and as good as this might be, I'm really not going to play it enough like that to focus on this game right now.

@HobbitGamer Same. I played around on it earlier. Messed with some enemies and I got invaded. Fought against them, died, and then turned it off.

Not too sure I have the patience for this game.

Nah I'm good chief.

A Gameboy DS? How hard is it to just look at the name on the device?

Not really into Minecraft, but it's got my favorite color. I kinda want it.

@Valdney But why?

Splatoon 2 not having cloud saves while Mario Kart 8 and ARMS do makes zero sense to me. Out of all the games they could have excluded that feature, it just had to be my favorite one.

Nice.

What kind of sorcery is this?!

Sounds like you're getting something special until you realize you have to pay to play this anyway and most people will likely get the yearly regardless.

Mario Party: Ruining friendships
Fortnite: Ruining marriages

Ah, now that's something I can't complain about. Kinda neat.

I feel like I would get this at some point, but it's low on my list. Felt like more of the same from NSMB Wii.

I really like that they're adding content to these Wii U ports even though they don't have to.

As some others have said, you'd be better off with 8bitdo. They have a wide variety including NES themed controllers, but they also work across multiple devices.

I figured this would be the case. Good for those still on the fence about this service.

@Mars I'd be cool with the Ezio Collection on the Switch. Seems like a good place to start.

@Scirocco7 Hah, I don't think it's just the file size. Switch really can't run it without massive downgrades. Also, 64GB would be pretty expensive to use even though it would help. Seriously, almost nobody is using the 32GB carts available now..

@Magician Hahaha. Burnt out, I suppose.

@Heavyarms55 What kind of games do you use your PC for? I'd be playing third party games that don't make their way to the Switch.

Well deserved. It's definitely one of the best games I've played. Honestly, I really would prefer the next Zelda to have more focus on story though as that's kinda lacking in Breath of the Wild.

I wouldn't exactly say it was for the purpose of fending off Spider-Man. There's really no big Nintendo exclusive that comes to mind releasing this month. Imo, it doesn't pick up until Fighterz late September and then Dark Souls in October. Which are also not exclusives, but great regardless.

The next hitter from Nintendo is Mario Party and I don't think that's turning anyone away from Spider-Man, lmao.

@Seacliff Really? It looks nothing like that to me. It reminds me of the Batman Arkham games.

@falconpunch We're at this point precisely because Nintendo didn't try to get into it. They wrote it off all this time and people accepted it because it was free.

Now that you have to actually pay for this lackluster service, people realize how far behind it is.

@Haywired Street Fighter IV isn't very accessible at all to my knowledge. I heard V is though.

@Captain_Gonru Haha. We got the same point across though.

@Nehalem Breath of the Wild really is a port on the Switch though. It was a Wii U game to begin with.

Can you... can you actually play on this?

@EightBitMan The Wii U did start out with better third party support imo. And, it was actually supported by a number of apps still not available on Switch.

Other than that though, I think it's pretty bad. Especially with first party where it stands no chance compared to Switch.

I agree that this is ultimately the result of Nintendo not really catering to third parties. Ubisoft really tried last generation and it didn't work. So they gave up on it and I don't blame them.

@electrolite77 I'm pretty sure Paladins and Fortnite are online only games.

Most people should expect this type of stuff to never show up on the Switch by now. But, I would never say it's a good thing. Especially not of a game this big. More FPS options for people would be neat even though they aren't my kind of thing.

If some of you are gonna do the price difference, keep in mind that free PSN back on the PS3 still had way more to offer. That's no excuse.

@RainbowGazelle Same problem for me. Every time I try to get into these games, it does not click. MHW seems to have gotten a lot of new people into the series and improve on a lot of things, so I think I'll take the jump. Tried the MHGU demo and it's more of the same thing that didn't work for me.

Yeah, this is more of a mini-game collection with the NMH name than an actual game. I'm already aware of that though. If it's priced decent, I might give it a try. Technically, this is like getting a bunch of indie games in one.

All I have to say is that Nintendo had better use the money they make from this to gradually improve the service. And not just look at this barebones offering and think "What we're doing is working." Because this doesn't even come close to PSN/XBL.
