@ManInTheChair I have a different take. Making this demo was a labor of love for Metroid. They were not trying to profit from it. I think their work is awesome
At this rate, Nintendo will never release Mario Kart 9. Stop buying 8 people! I kid because I never bought 8 on the Switch after pouring hundreds of hours into the WiiU title.
Rise is a great game but hasn't held my attention as long as previous Monster Hunters. It may be burnout from World but regardless I'm excited for the new gear and quests. Happy hunting!
My fondest Zelda memory was playing Wind Waker for the first time. For some reason, the local Blockbuster (or Hollywood) Video store was renting them a day or two before release. A buddy and coworker of mine and I both rented it to play it asap. I played 8 hours straight that night, possibly the longest play session I've ever had. The next day at work my friend and I talked about the game all day, until we went home and played some more. The easiest day 1 purchase in the history of video games right there.
I have enjoyed the Mario Golf series but this one hasn't grabbed my attention. The courses look rather bland to me. Speed Golf looks like it could be fun.
I love this game. Hunting the same monster 20 times became mundane in older Monster Hunter games. But the new mechanics give the ability to make every hunt a blast in Rise
The customization, nice variety of monsters, more unique looking weapons and armor, the Japanese inspired art direction, free updates and dlc, portability......this is a day 1 buy if there ever was.

I'd consider the new model if or when it's available in the Lite version.
Re: Best Nintendo Switch Shmups
Geometry Wars is probably series in the genre but not found on the Switch. I thing GW3 Retro evolved is fantastic and would love a handheld version
