@WallyWest Yeah that’s just untrue. Again, I know as I own each one. I’ve played them. Not just on Steam like many seem to. Easy Red 2 is the only rough title and it’s an indie sandbox… not a port. No Man’s Sky had a poor update. The rest are great.
@WallyWest Well I did vote “cautiously optimistic” 😂 That said you could fill a book with all the games that, at least I thought would never make it to the switch. Top of my head:
Switcher (CDPR) is still absurd for making this work Rocket League Skyrim (full) Subnautica + BZ Easy Red 2 Dying Light Wolfe 2 Doom Eternal The Outer Worlds No Man’s Sky Ghostrunner Journey to the Savage Planet
So either I’m easily impressed or this is happening. Or both.
Realized I went on a Raw Fury rampage. Atomicrops, Bad North, West of Dead, Kingdom Two crowns and all their dlc. Absolute steal. Not even half the price of a new release.
LRG with “limited digital releases?” Wait what? So you can wait two years for a month planned, digital release now too? Hard pass LRG. Now and forever lol.
As previously mentioned; Doom Eternal. Switch has the hardware it just needs the devs. Would dream of a special/deluxe remaster. 3 games, ton of goodies, steel-book maybe? Fingers crossed.
Good chunk of a list. But leaving out Ancestors Legacy? Come on. Ambition of the Slimes? Pathway? Even Warparty? Guess we do have a ton of good strategy on the Switch.
Honestly thought this game died out due to the whole “kids running across freeways catching AR-Pokémon, thing” But Pokémon doesn’t ever seem to die out. Even when it should.
@Sisilly_G Similar experience for me in reverse. Day I bought my Switch it was between Skyrim and BOTW. The more mature looking choice grabbed me. Every time I wanted to finally experience BOTW I just looked at Skyrim and it was like; really?? With what time can I not play this? Lol. Now enter ToTK and I’ve all but given up on catching up. Ah well.
@AG_Awesome Been really enjoying Axis Football 2023. Bit more on the side of stats and coaching/team building but it’s also a pickup and play if you don’t want that. Love MFL too.
Not sure how I feel about this. Huge Retro Bowl fan and it’s painfully obvious…. But….. more football?…. Just don’t want to see any asset rips a la Monster Harvest to Stardew Valley.
@Sonicka Had no idea you guys missed out on those. Total bummer. It’s actually how I started the series. Just grabbed them all during the sale. 100% on 3D+Stylus though.
Honestly I’d have cared more before Splatoon 3 dropped. But seeing how little was different from 2; a bit of that shine is gone. Why not Square? Knock yourselves out.
Been “Switch’in it up” with WH40K Boltgun and Advance Wars reboot. Find they balance each other out. Just wish both had multiplayer/better multiplayer.
Actually enjoyed the fights in that flick. Despite it being pretty.. lacking overall. I’m betting Cole shows up at some point as paid dlc. All things are possible with micro transactions.
@ParadoxFawkes Lol.. ok?.. It’s certainly not perfect.. But it’s also not broken by any means. Not for a Steam kid. Not on Switch. I know, as I’ve actually put 40+ into it.. on Switch.. If it’s your only option, by all means it’s a ton of fun. And it’s portable!
Going to have to cave on Sunbreak soon. It’s crazy there are folks still disappointed with the amount of content. I’m still enjoying the base game lol.
Awesome. Lmao. I own every port but KOTORII as I’m a huge SW fan and have been waiting for this content update to buy. Done with Aspyr that’s for sure.

Re: Best Switch Games In Nintendo's Hyper Max eShop Sale (North America)
@KainXavier Wow. A lot to take in there, but thanks for the info. Had no idea. Both titles had been on my radar for a while now, but not anymore.

The first remaster was/is absolute perfection. Take my money and let the giblets rain.

@ChromaticDracula thanks for that info
Bummer. May pass on the cart.

Re: Hands On: This Kitty Turned Out To Be Our Biggest Summer Game Fest Surprise
Cat haters are just scared of anything but unflinching loyalty. My cat rocks. She fetches and brings me kills.

I’ve never looked back. The Rim is home now. Leg of goat, anyone?

Roller Champions does not a Jet Set Radio make. What is this, Fortnite?

Re: Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy Announced For Nintendo Switch
That didn’t take long. See ya 3DS lol. Always preferred Ace Attorney by stylus. Just felt right.
Re: Round Up: All Switch Games Announced At Future Games Show Summer Showcase 2023
Steamworld Build and Punch Club 2. Fond 3ds memories of both. Sign me up!

Re: UK Charts: Diablo IV Finally Sends Zelda: TOTK To The Dark Depths Of Number Two
It’s funny, 200 fevered hours later most of my switch friends with ToTK seem done with Zelda. Like the binge is over.
Re: UK Charts: Diablo IV Finally Sends Zelda: TOTK To The Dark Depths Of Number Two
@SteamEngenius No kidding. Was shocked to already see it at $24 here in the states. (Pre-dlc drop, at GameStop no less)
Almost picked it up but went with Advance Wars. Do hope it sells well though. The first game was a hoot.
Re: Resistor Is A Racing RPG That's An Explosive Mix Of Burnout And Mad Max
@Dragnoran Heresy! Lol. Italian by any chance?
Re: Resistor Is A Racing RPG That's An Explosive Mix Of Burnout And Mad Max
Giving me Metal Max vibes for some reason. Looks interesting.

Re: Feature: Enclave HD's Producer On Bringing Starbreeze's ARPG To Switch - Frame Rate, Resolution, New Additions
Nintendo has its own definitions of remake and remaster. That said, I’ll probably buy it anyway lol.
Re: Hands On: Mortal Kombat 1's Stunning Presentation Has Us Anxious About The Switch Port
@YANDMAN Nah. I’ll buy it.
Re: Hands On: Mortal Kombat 1's Stunning Presentation Has Us Anxious About The Switch Port
In Netherrealm I trust. I’ll be picking it up day 1 as well. Can’t wait!
Re: Mortal Kombat 1 Won't Feature The New Movie Character Cole Young
@Cashews Have the confidence to speak for yourself. Your opinion isn’t shared.
Re: Mortal Kombat 1 Won't Feature The New Movie Character Cole Young
Actually enjoyed the fights in that flick. Despite it being pretty.. lacking overall. I’m betting Cole shows up at some point as paid dlc. All things are possible with micro transactions.
Re: Dragon Ball: The Breakers Season 3 Adds The Ginyu Force As Raiders
This one dropped in price fast. Isn’t it like a PG, Dead by Daylight/Friday the 13th?
Re: Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Version 16.0.0 Out Now On Switch, Here's What's Included
Great run. Think it will be a bit before I tussle with that thing though lol.

Re: Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak's Bonus Free Update Adds Final Monster Tomorrow
Going to have to cave on Sunbreak soon. It’s crazy there are folks still disappointed with the amount of content. I’m still enjoying the base game lol.
Re: Sifu's Free Arenas Expansion Update Expected To Arrive On Switch Soon
@ParadoxFawkes Bit of an exaggeration, but ok..
Re: Sifu's Free Arenas Expansion Update Expected To Arrive On Switch Soon
Great news! Sifu is one of my all time favorites. Just needs more incentive to repeat levels. Bummer about the replay editor though.
Re: Enclave HD Brings A Dual Campaign Of Fantasy Action To Switch This Month
Enjoyed that Blade of Darkness port. Sometimes less is more with these older “Souls-likes.” That and QubicGames doesn’t seem to like patching, but eh.
Ziggurat’s already patched their most recent Switch release in WCBM2, so thats a good sign.
Re: Stardew Valley Creator Seemingly Teases Next Big Update
Oh man I’m as excited for this as his new launch. Would love to jump back into Stardew. Game is truly endless.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 3rd)
One of the few Switchers not knee deep in TotK. Feels bad man. Just never had the interest. Love Skyrim? Jumping back into that and WH:Boltgun lately.
Re: Star Wars: KOTOR II 'Sith Lords' DLC Cancelled For Nintendo Switch

Re: Talking Point: From The Sublime To The Ridiculous - Is Anybody Excited For Everybody 1-2-Switch!?
To be fair, it’s hard to dislike something you didn’t know existed.
Re: Review: Warhammer 40,000: Boltgun - Bold, Bleak, And Bewildering Boomer Ballistics
Finally. Good review. Been loving this one. Noticed a slight stutter at times when the action gets hectic but nothing a patch or two can’t fix.
Re: Review: Farming Simulator 23: Nintendo Switch Edition - Freedom With Fickle Forklift Physics
How is there even a review for “farming simulator 23” and nothing for WH: Boltgun?
Re: Dillon's Rolling Western & Kirby Developer Vanpool Shuts Down
Bummer news! Love both the Dillons Rolling Western games. Team had heart. So rare in todays games.
Re: Turn-Based Wrestling RPG 'WrestleQuest' Pins Down August Release Date In New Trailer
Looks like fun. Some great sports titles lately. Just got Boxing Manager 2 and Super Mega Baseball 4 coming soon? Wallets about to get lighter.
Re: Front Mission 2: Remake Has Been Delayed On Switch
I’ll take a physical of F/S remakes. Such weird releases though.
Re: Nintendo Releases Update For Switch (Version 16.0.3), Here Are The Details
Not a fan of this. Been knee deep in MHRise for 2hrs so guess I’m updated? What?!
