@NintendoPete How long do you think it took to complete? The music is great and I'm really tempted by it but don't want anything too lengthy before all these new releases drop
I can't be excited for this. It just looks bad. It's not No More Heroes and I won't be made to feel guilty about not buying this to fund a proper entry.
Honestly cheaper than I was expecting. Sold. I just hope it arrives on launch day otherwise I might just be pathetic enough to buy it digitally as well.
I don't see how these have a use anyway, the joycons have buttons for a reason to maintain equal footing when using them as individual controllers. Anyone that wants a d-pad surely will just buy a pro controller?
I really like the look of it, but yeah they probably could have timed it better launching just before Octopath. I'll probably pick it up at some point but Banner Saga 3 launches about when I'll be done with Octopath so...

Please do yourselves a favour and play this if you haven't
Re: Rumour: Netflix's Castlevania Executive Producer Is Apparently "Working" On A Legend Of Zelda Series
Castlevania wasn't good. Please don't.
Re: A Zelda-Like Open World Pokémon Game Is "Still On The Cards", Says Junichi Masuda
@TheFanatic what innovation? The core gameplay hasn't changed, if anything it's regressed for let's go
Re: A Zelda-Like Open World Pokémon Game Is "Still On The Cards", Says Junichi Masuda
That all sounds like a load of bull, they haven't done anything new with Pokémon for years
Re: Video: See Yo-Kai Watch 4 Running On Switch With This 10-Minute Gameplay Video And Trailer
It's like the Pokémon game we'll never get because Gamefreak are too lazy
Re: Video: Here's A Look At The Latest NES Releases Now Playable On Switch
Thanks for the scraps Nintendo
Re: Feature: What Do You Want From A New Nintendo Switch?
I really hope they don't do this, but of course they will. I guess better battery life would be nice.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Has Exceeded Expectations Following Strong Sales Outside Of Japan
Arguably the best current JRPG series (except maybe Persona but those don't come often). Hoping for an X port, or better a sequel.
Re: Arena of Valor - China's Megahit MOBA Shines On Nintendo Switch
I don't really like Tencent but the game is decent enough.
Re: Sony Will Step Away From The Handheld Games Business In 2019, Leaving It All To Nintendo
@Medic_alert I am absolutely desperate for them to port Persona 4, to anything current really but Switch would be perfect.
Re: Reminder: The Dark Souls: Remastered Switch Network Test Is Starting Today
The controls do not feel good, the button mapping is horrible
Re: Anniversary: Pokémon Yellow Turns 20 Years Old Today
20 years and they still haven't made a better one
Re: Gone Home - A Peerless Masterclass In Interactive Storytelling Comes To Switch
This game is a 4 on a good day, with about 1 hour of content, stop putting it on some weird pedestal
Re: Bastion - A Captivating Indie Gem That Hasn't Been Dulled By The Passage Of Time
I own it already but I'll buy it again, Supergiant are great devs who deserve support.
Re: Bastion - A Captivating Indie Gem That Hasn't Been Dulled By The Passage Of Time
@Pineapple_Mohawk They're both superb honestly, among the best indie games you can play.
If you can only play one I'd wait for Transistor.
Re: Two Limited Edition Pokémon Let's Go Switch Consoles Arrive This November
Looks pretty nice to me, don't plan on getting it or the game either though
Re: All Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Players Will Receive In-Game Freebies To Celebrate The New DLC
but will I finally get KOS-MOS after 200 hours?
Re: SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy - A Sexy Street Fighter That's Perfect For Beginners
I'm not going to scroll up but I'm going to assume people are 'outraged' because tiddies. I'd buy this if I wasn't awful at fighting games.
Re: Zelda, Pikmin, Mario And More Feature In The Latest European My Nintendo Rewards
When are the Switch rewards, seriously
Re: Feature: Nintendo Life eShop Selects - August 2018
I gave in and bought the messenger, so far so good. The music is brilliant
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 1st)
@NintendoPete How long do you think it took to complete? The music is great and I'm really tempted by it but don't want anything too lengthy before all these new releases drop
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 1st)
@Razer I'd play them in order but honestly it doesn't matter too much. They're both really great so enjoy.
Re: Video: 13 Nintendo Switch Games You Should Look Out For In September
I'm so ready for more Xenoblade
Re: Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes Launches Exclusively On Nintendo Switch In January 2019
I can't be excited for this. It just looks bad. It's not No More Heroes and I won't be made to feel guilty about not buying this to fund a proper entry.
Re: Review: Little Dragons Café (Switch)
Okay, but what is it? What do you do? This review didn't really tell me anything about the game other than the issues
Re: Super Mario Party On Switch Won't Include Pro Controller Support
You can't possibly be trying to spin this as a good thing... It's completely stupid to limit your options in any capacity.
Re: The Critically Acclaimed Gone Home Is Headed To Nintendo Switch Next Week
Disgustingly overrated game. It belongs in a category with The Witness for most pointless experiences.
Re: Necrobarista Combines Death And Coffee To Make A Unique Visual Novel Headed To Switch
So Valhalla but ugly?
Re: Video: Digital Foundry Compares Okami On Switch To Past Versions
I already own this game 3 times, don't make me buy it a fourth
Re: The Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Limited Edition Is Now Up For Pre-Order In Europe
Honestly cheaper than I was expecting. Sold. I just hope it arrives on launch day otherwise I might just be pathetic enough to buy it digitally as well.
Re: Random: Purple And Yellow Chairs In Smash Bros. Direct Fuel Speculation Waluigi Will Be Playable Fighter
Why are Waluigi fans the absolute worst?
Re: Hori's D-Pad Joy-Con Controllers Are Eating Up That Precious Switch Battery Life
I don't see how these have a use anyway, the joycons have buttons for a reason to maintain equal footing when using them as individual controllers. Anyone that wants a d-pad surely will just buy a pro controller?
Re: Brutal 2D Hand-Drawn Platformer Salt And Sanctuary Hits Switch Next Week
Played it, it's okay I guess, ugly as sin though
Re: Epic Games Could Soon Be Worth A Staggering $8 Billion Thanks To Fortnite's Success
Why did Paragon have to die though?
Re: Critically Acclaimed The Witness Probably Won't Make It To Switch Despite Recent Mobile Ports
This game was legitimately terrible
Re: Bomb Chicken Developer Nitrome Open To DLC If eShop version “Sells Well Enough”
I really like the look of it, but yeah they probably could have timed it better launching just before Octopath. I'll probably pick it up at some point but Banner Saga 3 launches about when I'll be done with Octopath so...
Re: Tomorrow's Mario Tennis Aces Update Aims To Fix Bowser Jr.'s Unfair Advantage
this took them WAY too long but at least it might be fun again now
Re: Side-Scrolling Hack And Slash Dead or School Is Making Its Way To The Switch
Is she always just in the left corner? Cause that's kind of annoying to look at
Re: Hands On: Going Into Battle With Arena Of Valor, Switch's New MOBA Sensation
The esport part of the trailer is a joke right? There's not a competitive scene for a mobile game surely?
Re: Review: Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy (Switch)
Already bought it on PS4 so I'll pass. They're great games, though the original has some wonky physics compared to the other two.
Re: Video: Get To Know The Cast Of Octopath Traveler Ahead Of Its Switch Launch
I could not be more excited for this game
Re: Epic Is Suing Former Employee For Leaking Major Fortnite Details Before Release
Well, they have every right. Though I'm not sure they need the money...
Re: NIS America Outlines The Patch Plans For Ys VIII
This localisation is an abomination

Re: Soapbox: The Best Changes For Smash Bros. Ultimate Are The Ones We Didn’t Ask For
The most important change is that they buffed Zelda
Re: Poll: As "Gaming Disorder" Becomes A Thing, Is It Time To Assess How Much You Play?
When will they add watching TV to the list of mental health disorders
Re: Octopath Traveler Won't Receive DLC According To The Game's Producer
Both demos have been so great. Pre-ordered the compendium edition, one of the first games for a while that I trust will be worth it.
Re: Masahiro Sakurai Notes That Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Could Be The Last In The Series
As long as they nail the mechanics and balance of the game there doesn't really need to be another, graphically it can't really go much further.
Re: Fortnite On Nintendo Switch Doesn't Have Save The World Mode
The draw distance is really quite terrible, trying to snipe people who fade in and out of existence is so much fun
Re: New Screenshots Show Fan-Favourite Locations In Pokémon Let’s Go Pikachu And Eevee
I still don't like that there are no wild battles
