With that camera angle and Story Mode, this game seems mis-named?

@RadioHedgeFund I never said NES was the first console... you said the list of revolutionary consoles starts with Dreamcast. I was alive when the NES hit the market, and I assure you it was revolutionary.

I agree that everything after was fairly iterative until the Saturn/PS1 & N64 era. And nothing since has been much more than a more powerful box, except for the gimmicky Wii and VR stuff, until the Switch (with WiiU being fairly revolutionary, but misunderstood and mis-marketed).

@RadioHedgeFund Revolutionary consoles... pretty sure it starts with the NES?

I love the idea... but the price still seems too high.

And these games certainly don't need to be on a physical cartridge.

All they need to do is fix joycon drift and the false inputs on the Pro Controller d-pad... then everything would be fine.

A more powerful bluetooth connection between joycon and console would also be nice.

Unless the OLED supports Low Latency codec, along with this potential new controller, a headphone jack won't be useful.

This is all somewhat pointless in my opinion without support for Low Latency codec.

It appears that the Switch does not support Low Latency and very few wireless earbuds support LL anyway... for true Low Latency, you would likely need full-sized wireless headphones, the type more designed for TV/movie watching.

I have a Low Latency bluetooth setup in my home gym for watching movies during workouts, and it works great. Anything that is not true low latency is very annoying for tv/movies and would be even worse for gaming.

I believe bluetooth audio lag is the reason that Nintendo never allowed it... but they have caved to customer demand. It's fine for people who don't mind the lag, but I will be plugging in headphones to my Switch.

I was worried about the performance on Switch since it really matters for racers... concerned about the performance issues mentioned in the review, but encouraged by the comments saying it is not that bad... I suppose I will find out for myself.

Take your time... make it good.

Reads like a 1

Golf Club Wasteland does look like simple fun... and the price is right.

If the graphical performance is good... including 60 FPS split-screen... I probably won't be able to pass this up for some arcade racing fun.

Waiting until it's an 8?

It doesn't seem journalistic to postpone a review until a game is patched. Just review it as released. If it does successfully get patched, you can decide to update the review or re-review.

I guess I don't understand why someone would want a headphone port cover that large?

The Highlights section makes it look like Spelunky and Spelunky 2 are $9.99... Spelunky 2 is $19.99.

Inked: A Tale of Love may deserve some attention... hopefully it gets a review. Apparently the original PC release had some technical issues, but surely those are fixed now?

Looks bonkers... not a bad thing.

@OorWullie Why in the world would it offer 120 FPS on Switch? Will the Switch output that rate?

@Tandy255 I have almost bought the Afternoon Collection on Steam a couple times... but I am holding out for Switch... just makes way more sense.

That's great to hear... now listen up: DISNEY AFTERNOON COLLECTION!

I always hoped Venus would continue to be the better player... she is an absolute class act from what I can tell.

Serena... not so much.

Turning the N64 into a Switch Dock would make way more sense to me.

@Jeronan The Switch OLED is slightly physically bigger with regard to exterior dimensions (3mm wider)... shouldn't affect the case in this article... but could affect tight fitting accessories.

.cat Milk... does Nintendo have any quality standards for eShop games?

I had no idea she said that... Never bogeyed with Daisy.

Super Mario Party is decent, just incomplete... Some of the boards are very uninspired and there simply needs to be more of them.

Still worth it if you know people who are into it, especially at the sale price, but still disappointing.

Not sure how I feel about the Donk course being all Par 3 holes... but I will check it out tonight.

If the updates keep coming, this will be a great game... as much as I love Mario Golf, I don't play it that often and still the courses are getting old quick.

There needs to be way more Mushroom Kingdom style courses (like the 3DS game)... hopefully they are forthcoming.

This could be great... I wonder if it will run at steady 60 FPS? If so, might need to have it around.

Always interested in this type of game... hopefully it's good and the price is right.

I have no interest in this game, but I will never forget being on vacation at the beach when it released in 2016... I didn't know about it and I was so confused why everyone was walking around with their phones out and talking about Pokemons.

Still going after 5 years is impressive...

@Ear_wiG I think I saw that the game received another update recently, but I have no idea if it addresses any performance issues... probably not.

@Bret Haven't seen Black Widow yet?

@VoidofLight It says Game Trials... so it sure sounds more like a demo.

I checked the Steam link and the game can not be purchased there... it appears that the devs removed it and plan to re-release it, with improvements... This probably coincides with the Switch release?

It seems like there is more to this story which would make for an interesting article.

Here is an excerpt from a post made by the developer:

"In the last dev story, we covered the initial development and release of Inked. Today we will take a look at how the feedback and reviews after the game’s release prompted the team to deeply analyze the game, and come up with ways to improve it. This postmortem of the game was supposed to be a guideline on how to do better at any future projects, but eventually became the foundation for the new and improved Inked which you are patiently waiting for today."

I'm not exactly sure why, but that actually looks fun.

Awesome history lesson.

I honestly could not read the game title.

That Shaolin vs Wutang game looks so bad... but I'm glad people are enjoying it! I do love how each fighter is style-based...

I would love a Bushido Blade style, "one-hit kill" no life-meter weapon fighting game to come to Switch. Even a port of the pretty good Deadliest Warrior games would be fine.

For now, Nidhogg and One Strike is as close as we get?

I just bought this yesterday on sale... The occasional performance issues are worse than expected at this point... they aren't frequent, but it's really unfortunate in a game that is about "flow".

@nhSnork If the cut off is days away from payday, use a credit card to get all of the super discounts, and pay it off immediately when your paycheck arrives. I am not advising that you rack up credit card debt, but use it to your advantage.

March 2022... Question is, will the Switch Pro be November 2021 or also March 2022?

What will come first... F-Zero or Wave Race?

I never got to Golf Story... I love indie games, but despite all of the hype, I just couldn't convince myself that I would be into it.

How odd... tennis is next?

What about Alpaca Ball?

We need Starwhal 2... and on Switch.

I submitted Down in Bermuda

Quality/reliability is way more important than read/write speed... unless you are recording extremely high resolution and bit-rate video, then you need both.

Wonder Boy didn't make it in to the Highlights section?

@OorWullie Mine's on the 45!

This would actually be handy when traveling... especially in conjunction with a Genki covert dock.

This would be a fun official remake... original Zelda in the Link's Awakening engine.
