As someone who's played this on PS4 a year ago, I highly recommend it! The only problem is that I can barely reveal what makes it so good without spoiling it. You really have to go into it blind.
Now if they could only free Muramasa Rebirth from Vita hell, for God's sake...
I wouldn't mind if they packaged all their Wii-era titles like Wii Sports, Sports Resort, Play, Play Motion, Party, Fit, Fit Plus etc and put them into one Switch cart. 51 Clubhouse Games was a step in the right direction.
Actually, now that I think about it, this decision will result in MORE toxic comments, not less.
Before if you didn't like a video, most would simply dislike and be on their way while the more passionate people would comment.
Now, if you want to express that you did not like the video, you will HAVE to comment whether you like it or not. And there WILL be more hate. And there WILL be more flame wars and trolls. Look forward to it. 😑
@Oddball83 Zelda games are anime as hell, especially the newer instalments. You gotta be foolish to deny it. Just look at Zelda's new appearance in SSBU. She went from a medieval elf warrior princess to Sailor Moon
Godawful. Absolutely godawful. It looks like something for a bar or app. Not a game company.
Also, when I think of Bandai Namco, the last ***** thing I think of is purple. Their old logos were red. Their mascot is yellow. Orange makes perfect sense. WTF is this?
8/10. Kirby, Splatoon and Bayo were all great announcements. Wish I could have gotten more new stuff, Dread and SMTV is basically carrying Switch in 2021 for me.
Jesus Christ, talk about a glorified popularity contest.
What do GTA:SA, GTAV, BOTW, Witcher 3, Arkham City, GoW2018 and COD4 have in common? They're all AAA games that sold more than 10 million copies each. They're not bad games, but it's clear that actual game quality is not a priority here.
As someone who's eagerly waiting for the new Melty Blood, this is great news. Thanks to rollback netcode, playing with Japanese players is actually possible now!
@jowe_gw The Switch is an excellent system, I'm not debating that! But the OLED model is a huge disappointment and denying that is just failing to read the room.
As for the OS, Steam uses Proton to run Windows games on Linux from which I heard is essentially flawless. Linux gaming has come a long way since the dark ages of Wine. And the risk of a Linux machine getting infected is practically negligible. Hell, the risk of a Windows machine getting infected is negligible too if you install a handy piece of software called Common Sense 2021...
Day. One. Buy. The fact that this costs only £40 more than the Switch OLED is an absolute EMBARRASSMENT to Nintendo.
And to those saying "it'll just be another Steam Link/Box"... I bought the Steam Link full price back in 2015, and I still use it to this day. I trust Valve to deliver.

Re: The "Live-Action" Mega Man Movie Could Be On The Way To Netflix
Netflix animated adaption → could be really good!
Netflix live-action adaptation → it's gonna suck 100% guaranteed.
Re: Shin Megami Tensei V Updated To Version 1.02, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
FOV options? In a Switch third person game??? Thank god! Way more games need to have FOV options.
Re: Talking Point: Great Game, Poor Performance - When Does A Bad Frame Rate Not Really Matter?
60fps is the reason why PC has been my main platform of choice since 2009.
Re: Atlus Brings 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim To Nintendo Switch On 12th April 2022
@KBuckley27 500k for a PS4 exclusive that is half-adventure, half-RTS (two dead genres) made by a small company (Vanillaware) is decent.

Re: Music From Kirby Super Star Has Just Been Nominated For A Grammy
Last song I thought I'd ever see nominated for a Grammy, but I'm not complaining
Re: Looks Like Street Fighter VI Will Be Revealed Next Year, But Will It Come To Switch?
Imagine playing a fighting game at 30fps 🤣
Re: Soapbox: Wii Sports Wasn't Just Waggle, It Was An Important Gateway To Gaming

Re: Feature: "The eShop Is Just Way Too Slow" - Deku Deals Creator On Nintendo's Switch Storefront
DekuDeals for Switch, IsThereAnyDeal for PC. If it weren't for these two sites I'd be bankrupt. 😄
Re: Japanese Charts: Mario Party Superstars Fends Off Call Of Duty And Fortnite To Stay Top
Can't wait to see how well SMT5 will do there. Thoughts?

If you want to curb online harassment, target YT comments not the dislikes. What a stupid decision

Re: Sakurai Says He's Not Thinking About A New Smash Bros. Game, But Won't Rule It Out
@Oddball83 Anime-style characters don't have a place in the game? Link has been there since Smash 64!
Re: Random: Metroid Dread's Zero Suit Samus Model Is Rather Detailed Up Close
@Arkay You sure demolished that strawman!
Re: Review: Shin Megami Tensei V - The Best Entry Yet In This Dark, Engrossing RPG Series
@Mauzuri So in other words the only reason you want to play Persona instead is because Joker is in Smash, pathetic

Re: Happy Halloween! Nintendo Has Released A Free Metroid Dread Demo
Betting £2 that the demo ends after defeating the broken EMMI.
Re: Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy Gets A Meaty File Size, By Switch Standards
A Kingston 32GB SD card is £5. If they can't put it on cartridge then I'll be very disappointed.
Re: Shin Megami Tensei V Gets Day One Paid DLC And Digital Deluxe Edition
Anyone who is familiar with Atlus knows they've been bonkers with DLC for a while now.
Re: Sakurai Reveals How A Chance Encounter Led To Sora In Smash Bros. Ultimate
I like Tekken but have no interest in Kingdom Hearts whatsoever I wouldn't have minded Kazuya as the final fighter
Re: Anniversary: We've Almost Been Watching Nintendo Direct Presentations For 10 Years Now
Another innovation pioneered by Iwata-san.
Re: Feature: 8 Games That Missed Nintendo Hardware
There was no need to put Joker in Smash. They should have added an SMT character/demon instead.
Re: Poll: As Sora Joins Smash Bros. Ultimate, How Much Of The DLC Roster Do You Own?
Bought every character. You bet I want the complete roster for the biggest fighting game of all time.
Re: Uh-Oh, Nintendo's Switch Online 'Expansion Pack - Overview Trailer' Is Generating A Lot Of Dislikes
Well deserved. But as we all know, internet points don't matter.
Re: Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's Final Fighter Is... Kingdom Hearts' Sora!
@Bluerangervegeta I didn't want him, in fact I dislike Kingdom Hearts, but he was definitely requested. Ever since the Smash 4 era
Re: Random: Sakurai Seems To Be Finally Taking A Break From Smash Bros. Development, With The PS5
Not gonna lie, a Sony rep would be cool, I would love Ratchet & Clank.
Re: Bandai Namco Is Changing Its Logo In 2022

Re: Review: Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania - Feature-Packed, But Far From Top Banana
"Physics are not up to the standard set by the originals."
Thankfully I did not preorder. WTF.
Re: 'Dandy Ace' Looks Like Hades X Persona, And It's Out On Switch Today
As we all know, Hades invented isometric roguelikes, and Persona invented the gentleman thief archetype.
Re: Poll: What Did You Think Of Yesterday's Nintendo Direct?
8/10. Kirby, Splatoon and Bayo were all great announcements. Wish I could have gotten more new stuff, Dread and SMTV is basically carrying Switch in 2021 for me.
Re: Uh-Oh, Nintendo Switch Online's N64 Games Might Be 50Hz In Europe
Holy *****. Paying extra just for N64 games that aren't even at full speed? Way to ***** over your European customers.
Re: Bayonetta 3 Finally Gets A New Trailer, Out In 2022
@CupidStunt This your first Direct? Directs always cut the mature content from the trailers for M-rated games.
Anyway, thank God for 60fps. Astral Chain on 30fps was a terrible decision
Re: Japan's Switch Online Service Gets The Six-Button Sega Mega Drive Controller
Japan also gets Custom Robo on N64. Dunno why the article doesn't mention it
Re: The Super Mario Movie's Release Date And Cast Are Revealed
This is the most ridiculous and dumbest casting I've ever seen.
I'm watching it day one.
Re: Banjo-Kazooie Is 'Coming Home' To A Nintendo Console Via Switch Online
I'll stick to the HD version on Game Pass thank you.
Re: A New Kirby Game Just Leaked On Nintendo Japan's Website
Ugh. Why spoil it hours before the Direct? Very disappointed in you NintendoLife.

Re: Random: Don't Worry About Masahiro Sakurai's Health, He's "Okay" Right Now
@UglyCasanova I don't get how saying his health is fine is "whining", but ok.
Re: Persona 5's Morgana Is Joining Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania
I would've taken Teddie or Jack Frost over this goddamn incel cat.
Re: Reminder: Space Invaders Invincible Collection Launches Today On Switch eShop In The West
This would be worth the price if it had Extreme 2.
Re: Japanese Charts: Despite Launching In 2018, Minecraft Beats Zelda To Number One
@Anti-Matter The only reason why Dragon Quest Builders is a thing is because they wanted to capitalise on the Japanese popularity of Minecraft
Re: Rumour: Persona 4 Arena Ultimax To Be Remastered For "Modern Platforms"
If there's no rollback I'll just stick to the PS3 version. I would gladly pay $60 just for added rollback, otherwise forget it.
Re: Dragon Quest XII Could Shape The Next "10 To 20 Years" Of The Series
I don't mind what artistic direction the series takes. But if they get rid of turn-based combat, the series is dead to me.
Re: Valve's Steam Deck Might Be The Closest We'll Get To A Switch Pro In 2021
@Dirty0814 Steam has Offline Mode... have you even used Steam? And the Deck has expandable microSD storage just like the Switch.

Re: Valve's Steam Deck Might Be The Closest We'll Get To A Switch Pro In 2021
@Dirty0814 No, games run natively on the system, just like the Switch. You don't have to stream at all, although you can if you want.
Re: Valve's Steam Deck Might Be The Closest We'll Get To A Switch Pro In 2021
@Ghost_of_Hasashi This runs on Linux though. No hacks or viruses of any kind.
