My only problem with this is that it came out in a very, very busy time. Can't afford the time or money to buy/play Mario Rabbids, Bayonetta, Tactics Ogre, Pokemon, Harvestella, and possibly Sonic Frontiers (depending on how that reviews... looking at you Sonic Cycle). Might have to wait until xmas, and see if it catches a price drop by then, which I doubt.
It's looking amazing tbh, and I keep wondering what happened to the DQ 3 HD-2D remaster. I love the style and I hope it can benefit from all these improvements aswell. An update on that would be nice though...
Should have revealed these spelling OCTOPATH! If you're insisting on the weird title then build on it hahah
Anyways, its looking great. Loved the first one, and I'd throw myself into the awesome special edition of this game if it werent so darn expensive. Can't wait.
Same here. I ordered Xenoblade Chronicles 3 from the dedicated Irish Nintendo Store (which I couldn't do before, I could only order from the UK using a Parcel service, it was messy) and the shipping was free because it was over 24.99. I ordered from the Nintendo Store because it comes with a notebook and I'm a nerd for extras.
Parcel is on the way right now, estimated delivery in 3 days. It's like a dream come true and I look forward to be able to preorder the XC3 Collector's goodies on September.
Xenoblade Chronicles 2, just started third chapter. Lol.
Last week I finished XC and Future Connected and the story left me so engaged I just had to continue and find out more about it all! All this hype with XC3 got to me
Yeah definitely need this on Switch, HD 2D or not, I don't mind.
A better candidate for the HD 2D treatment would be Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth though. Such a great game. Now that a new Valkyrie game has been announced it'd be a pretty cool thing to have...
I've only played Dread (newcomer to the series, didn't have a SNES, 3DS or Wii ) but if Prime is really better than Dread actually is then goddamn I can't wait to play them.
I've spent longer than I expected on the MH Stories 2 demo tbh! Loving it and can't wait until it releases. It kinda made me want to go back to Rise XD
Other than that, Ni no Kuni and SMT 3, switching between them as I see fit. Usually Ni no Kuni on TV and SMT 3 on portable. I have kids and I rather have them see some magic from Studio Ghibli rather than the creepy atmosphere from an apocaliptic Tokyo. I must say I'm loving both of them.
The games, not the kids. Wait, no! I meant the kids! (...and the games! XD)
The World Ends With You and the Dragon Quest Builders 2 demo. all the DQ news got me hyped so might actually pick up DQXI S on Switch soonish aswell (played and finished it on PS4 once before) and give it another playthrough. Such an awesome game.
I'm really tempted to get Bravely Default 2, but I want to do all there is to do in Persona 5 Strikers first. I'm on the second Jail and having a real blast with the game.
I was actually shocked to find out that loads of people hate Skyward Sword. In my opinion, seeing how the Master Sword grows to the form we find in the rest of the games was awesome, the gameplay was fun and engaging and it was overall a great experience. :/
2017: Nintendo wants every member of each household to have their own switch. Me: yeah, right! 2021: 2 Switches and 1 Lite. And I'd never go back. Damn you, Nintendo.
Rune Factory 4 with the game trials program. And right now I wish it lasted longer or that they would come together with a discounted price for the game on trial, really enjoying it!

Re: Tactics Ogre: Reborn Switch Impressions Are Out, And It's Looking Really Good
Checking the screenshots in the shop page in an Oled you can see this in person. And it looks amazing

Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Triangle Strategy
I set an alarm to go pick up my physical copy. This is likely GOTY material for me.
Re: Nintendo Direct To Air Tomorrow, Wednesday 9th February 2022
"Persona 4 Releases after this presentation ends" would be mind blowing. Maybe a bit too hopeful though!
Most likely Kirby news, and an Advance Wars release date for sure.
Hopeful for BOTW 2!
Re: Lots Of Resident Evil And Devil May Cry Games Are Discounted On Switch Right Now
I got all excited for Onimusha but apparently they left it out for EU. Ah well. Dekudeals says it's been at 7.99 Eur before so I'll wait anyways.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (October 16th)
I finished Dread in Normal and Hard modes and now my life feels empty.
I'm replaying the Voice of Cards demo on my OLED Switch before the release, and then I'll jump in Luigi's Mansion 3. Still have that one pending.
