Definitely gonna order. I will buy any Star Wars game that comes to Switch, and I will buy it physically if that is an option. I don’t really even care about physical games, I just like owning Star Wars things.
Anyway, as far as this game goes, I have it on my XB1, but I’ve barely played it. Really enjoyed what I did play though! Looking forward to really getting into it on Switch.
Hoping for more SW game announcements soon! I would absolutely love Shadows of the Empire.
Probably my favorite multiplayer experience of all time. I’d love to see them bring this to Switch with local and online play. It’d be great to revisit and more people need to experience it!
These guys make great pinball games and I wish them nothing but the best, but Star Wars Pinball is all I need. I just don’t see buying or playing any other pinball games. But man, yeah, SW Pinball is amazing.
I’m all for cloud gaming, as long as it’s only used for games that really cannot run on Switch. I wouldn’t want to live in a world where they’d take the easy way out instead of actually porting Doom/Doom Eternal, Witcher 3, etc...but for the even more demanding games, which we’re gonna see more and more of as we get deeper into the PS5/XBox Series S/X generation, man, sign me up. I know they’re streaming and I’ll lose access to them eventually and all that, but man, I could buy like 8-10 cloud games with the amount of money it’d take just to buy one of the new consoles.
Doesn’t sound like I should expect much of that right now, though. Oh well. I tend to not like most games like that anyway. I’m more of a Nintendo/Nintendo-style/indie guy.
Stardew is a top 3 Switch game for me, and my most played by far. Haven’t touched it in a while, though. Maybe I’ll check out this 1.5 stuff soon. Man, what a fantastic game.
I will try any Star Wars game, and if it’s free, yeah, no reason not to check it out. But I don’t have high hopes.
Also, @dojmin-I don’t know man...SW Pinball is pretty great. On top of being a great pinball game, the presentation is fantastic. I’d recommend it to anyone who wants something Star Warsy. I’ve had more fun with it/it has done a better job of scratching that Star Wars itch than any of the SW games I have for XB1.
I will buy any Star Wars game that comes to Switch. I have this one on my XB1. I’ve only played a little, but it seems cool. I’d be down for playing more Switch. What I really want is some more of the old Nintendo Star Wars games, though. Super Star Wars trilogy, Shadows of the Empire, Rogue Squadron trilogy (and Battle for Naboo)...those are the games I REALLY care about. Oh, and unrelated to Nintendo, bring KOTOR over already. But yeah, this would be a welcome addition too.
@Sourcecode Hey, just speaking up for the sequel lovers! I have no intention of getting into it beyond that. I stopped having fun talking about Star Wars with strangers on the internet a long time ago.
Man...I don’t get this genre at all. Not one game on that list that is even remotely appealing to me. Still, I always appreciate a good “best of” list from Nintendo Life!
Yeah, I’m one of the 3.2 million. This game is...fine? I guess. Not too fun, really, but a decent enough thing to play with other people who aren’t really big gamers during the pandemic. Personally I’d rather just stick to Jackbox for that, though.
I am not anti-cloud gaming at all, but once again, I couldn’t be less interested in the game being offered. Maybe something appealing will be put up one day.
I’m glad it’s doing well and I’m glad so many people who wanted it are getting it, but man, I’m missing something with this game. I bought it for PS3 as a gamer who loves the movie and the comics, and I just thought it was boring. I wish I liked it, it’d be fun to get in on this excitement. Oh well.
@Elvie The way Lucas was supposedly treated/misled does seem kinda questionable...but eh, who knows what really happened/was said. All I know is, there has been a ridiculous amount of what is in my opinion very solid content ever since Disney bought Star Wars, and it’s only gonna get better. I’ll take Rebels, Mandalorian, 5 films, a bunch of great books/comics, Fallen Order, Squadrons, and I guess Galaxy’s Edge even though it isn’t really my thing, not to mention all the other announced stuff over whatever the heck we got between Revenge of the Sith and the Disney purchase. Clone Wars (which is great) and what, Angry Birds Star Wars? I know it was a bit more than that...but man, nothing like this. I couldn’t be happier with the Disney era so far.
@Retro_Player_77 What about all the people who complain that all the NSMB games are the same, though? You run into that problem too. At least Run is different.
Origami King and Hades are both excellent. Hard for me to choose between the two. I had fun with other stuff, but nothing else is really in contention for me.
As a big fan of Doom 2016 (which surprised me-I’m not much of a shooter guy), I was pretty pumped to play this, and I was planning on getting it on Switch...but then I tried it on Gamepass. I stopped playing before I even beat the first level. I could already tell I wouldn’t like it. Oh well. Hope it’s a good port and that everybody who gets it has fun with it!
@Yrreiht As I said above, Crayola Scoot is pretty decent. Which is not necessarily me saying you absolutely should buy it, but you could do much worse for a few bucks.
@0blivion Dalton is my favorite. Brosnan is fun. I hate Craig’s films. Not crazy about him in the role, but it’s more just that the films are boring and no fun.

Re: Star Wars: Republic Commando Is Getting A Limited Run Switch Release
@ivory_soul I think they usually say on the listing on their site if a game will get a Best Buy release or not.

RBI Baseball. Really liking this year’s game!
Re: Feature: Zelda: Four Swords Was Probably Great, But Finding Pals To Play With? Talk About A Master Quest
Probably my favorite multiplayer experience of all time. I’d love to see them bring this to Switch with local and online play. It’d be great to revisit and more people need to experience it!
Re: Poll: Monster Hunter Rise Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?
I’m glad people are excited, and it looks like it is going to do extremely well, but I personally have no interest.
Re: Zen Studios Announces "Next-Gen" Pinball FX Game For Switch, Introduces New Battle Royale Mode

Re: Jackbox Party Pack 8 Gets Formally Confirmed, Arriving On Switch This Fall
@nickeddowes Even with Blather Round being in there?? One of the all-time greats if you ask me.
Re: An Ace Attorney Orchestral Concert Will Be Streamed Worldwide Next Month
@TryToBeHopeful Yeah, same. I love Ace Attorney and I love that they’re doing this, but that’s too expensive.
Re: Rustler Is A Medieval GTA Coming To Switch This Year
@Low_ink Have you played LEGO City Undercover? If not, check it out!
Re: Nintendo Download: 11th March (North America)
I’m a fan of the RBI games. I’ll be getting the new one for sure.
Re: Where To Buy Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros.
@Electric-Dreams I bought a stand off Etsy and just keep it plugged in all day. I absolutely love using it as a clock.
Re: Hate Zips? Then This Magnet-Powered Nintendo Switch Carry Bag Could Be For You
@ZeldaFanboy78 That’s what I was thinking too. I’d be way too nervous to use this.
Re: Plants Vs. Zombies Could Pave The Way For Bigger And Better EA Frostbite Titles On Switch
I will buy any Star Wars game that comes to Switch.

Re: Zynga And Lucasfilm Games Announce Star Wars: Hunters, A New Free-To-Play Title For Switch And Mobile

Re: Talking Point: What We're Hoping To See In Today's Nintendo Direct
The more Ace Attorney and Star Wars games they show, the happier I’ll be.
Re: Star Wars: Republic Commando Appears To Be On The Way To Switch

Re: Feature: 6 Huge Video Game Franchises Missing From Nintendo Switch
I don’t care about any of these myself, but the fact that Sims isn’t on Switch is one of the stupidest things in gaming today.
Re: LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Will Feature Around 300 Playable Characters
@Sourcecode Man...I love the sequels. Especially Last Jedi.
Re: LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga Will Feature Around 300 Playable Characters
I can’t wait for this game. Sounds great! And, I mean, I’ll play anything Star Wars.
Re: Feature: Best Nintendo Switch Stealth Games
Man...I don’t get this genre at all. Not one game on that list that is even remotely appealing to me. Still, I always appreciate a good “best of” list from Nintendo Life!
Re: Among Us Estimated To Have Sold 3.2 Million Copies On Switch In Launch Month
Yeah, I’m one of the 3.2 million. This game is...fine? I guess. Not too fun, really, but a decent enough thing to play with other people who aren’t really big gamers during the pandemic. Personally I’d rather just stick to Jackbox for that, though.
Re: There Are No Plans Right Now For A Cyber Shadow Physical Release
I’m not the kind of guy who cares, I’m totally fine with digital...but this is obviously going to get a physical release someday.

Re: Scott Pilgrim For Switch Becomes Limited Run's "Biggest" Physical Release Ever

Re: Konami's Anniversary Collections On The Switch eShop Are Currently 75% Off (US)
Well, I guess I’ll finally get the Contra collection.
Re: Nintendo Download: 14th January (North America)
@Capt_N Star Wars Pinball is so great. Maybe I’ll play a few rounds later now that the idea is in my head. Have fun!
Re: Star Wars Video Games Join Forces Under Lucasfilm Games
@brunojenso Right there with you.
Re: Star Wars Video Games Join Forces Under Lucasfilm Games
@brunojenso I’m hoping that the announcement of the Rogue Squadron movie means these games will come back.

Re: Star Wars Video Games Join Forces Under Lucasfilm Games
Hey, if it means more Star Wars games on Switch, they can call themselves whatever they want.
Re: Feature: Remembering Super Mario 3D Land, 3D World’s Oft-Forgotten Predecessor
I loved this game. Prefer it to 3DW. The smaller levels are great for this style.
Re: Mini Review: Florence - The Very Definition Of 'Short But Sweet'
Glad you’re finally reviewing this. Hope it gets more people to play the game. The developer deserves it and gamers will love it. Win win!
Re: Feature: Nintendo Switch Ports We'd Love To See In 2021
All the remaining Ace Attorney games, a bunch of old Star Wars games and the Metroid Prime trilogy and I’ll be happy!
Re: Review: Super Meat Boy Forever - A New Formula That Takes Away More Than It Adds
@Retro_Player_77 What about all the people who complain that all the NSMB games are the same, though? You run into that problem too. At least Run is different.
Re: Review: Super Meat Boy Forever - A New Formula That Takes Away More Than It Adds
Actually sounds a bit better than I expected. May be more of a “pick it up on sale” game than a “skip it” game, like I assumed it would be.
Re: Super Meat Boy Forever Finally Slices Up A Nintendo Switch Release Date
I really want this game to be good, but I have a feeling it won’t be. Man, I hope I’m wrong.
Re: Poll: What's The Best Switch Game Of 2020? It's Time To Rate Your Favourites
Origami King and Hades are both excellent. Hard for me to choose between the two. I had fun with other stuff, but nothing else is really in contention for me.
If I have to choose one, I’m going OK.
Re: Poll: DOOM Eternal Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?
As a big fan of Doom 2016 (which surprised me-I’m not much of a shooter guy), I was pretty pumped to play this, and I was planning on getting it on Switch...but then I tried it on Gamepass.

Re: Feature: What's The Best Way To Play Super Mario Bros. In 2020?
@Munchlax Extension cords for the NES Classic are pretty cheap and work really well.
Make for a much nicer experience.
Re: Feature: Ace Attorney's Hidden Legacy: The Evidence Capcom Didn't Present To The West
Well, this sure looks like an article I’ll enjoy reading when I have time later.
Re: Feature: Best Super Nintendo (SNES) Games
Maybe I missed something...but did I just go through a top 50 list that didn’t include one game from the Super Star Wars trilogy?
Re: Black Friday Switch Sale Discounts Ice Age, Jumanji And More Family-Friendly Games (US)
@Yrreiht As I said above, Crayola Scoot is pretty decent. Which is not necessarily me saying you absolutely should buy it, but you could do much worse for a few bucks.
Re: Black Friday Switch Sale Discounts Ice Age, Jumanji And More Family-Friendly Games (US)
Crayola Scoot is pretty decent, actually. I’d recommend it to anybody looking to scratch that Tony Hawk itch on Switch, especially at that price.
I haven’t played the others, nor do I care to.
Re: Watch Out, GoldenEye 007 – Hitman Studio IOI Is Working On A James Bond Game
@0blivion Dalton is my favorite. Brosnan is fun. I hate Craig’s films. Not crazy about him in the role, but it’s more just that the films are boring and no fun.
Re: Watch Out, GoldenEye 007 – Hitman Studio IOI Is Working On A James Bond Game
@0blivion I am aware, but man...those aren’t Bond films as far as I’m concerned. They stopped being enjoyable and special for me after DAD.
Re: Watch Out, GoldenEye 007 – Hitman Studio IOI Is Working On A James Bond Game
@TheFrenchiestFry Man...I’ll never understand that.
Re: Watch Out, GoldenEye 007 – Hitman Studio IOI Is Working On A James Bond Game
@WhiteTrashGuy Makes sense, there hasn’t been a real Bond film in 18 years.
