@Saego Dragon Quest XI is not coming until much later than the PS4 port, and read my comment to the KOOPA dude if everyone seems to be questioning my comment so much.
They have released a few games as Japan only (Dragon Quest heroes 1+2, Mana collection) along with not giving much care for porting some of their multi platform titles such as the Secret of Mana remake (although admittedly its not a great game). They also spent time releasing some of their biggest titles to ios instead of the Switch (Life is strange, Final Fantasy XV).
I've always said the Switch can handle a lot of good looking games. It's only a matter of whether a developer wants to give us those good looking games. Capcom and Square are the biggest culprits sadly.
@ricklongo keywords are back then. Now they add difficulty as if its cool. I guess some people like that I guess, and it's fine, but making every game that way just because Dark Souls did it seems lame.
@TheBraveFencer I've been using hori controllers since the ps2 Era, and they have always made good dpads. Even their hori pad for the switch, as monstrous as it looks, is actually great to use. I do agree that the location of the camera button seems a bit off
This looks sweet, but I hope it isn't as dull as other Indie games I've been burned by on the Switch. Kamiko is one of my biggest regrets this generation
What was anyone expecting when this game looked just as bad as its iPhone equivalent? And even on there they had years to improve and patch the issues but didn't
@OorWullie there was that wiiu exclusive Fatal Frame game, and there have been rumors that the Steam indie title Project Scissors was supposed to come to the switch... But no word on if that is ever coming.
Looks alright, but I wish we'd get a AAA horror title soon... Heck I'd settle for a remaster of the WiiU Fatal Frame game.
I kinda wish Climax Studios (the guys behind the awesome, Wii timed exclusive, Silent Hill shattered memories) would make another horror title for the Switch!
Agreed with the top two, though I'd lean more towards fusion than Zero mission regarding Metroid. Final Fantasy Tactics advance would be higher up on my list tho - criminally under rated game on the Gba & greatest of all time lists
Ok so this was a pretty decent Direct. Obviously wasn't as amazing as say they had announced a Metroid Prime Trilogy Remaster, Virtual Console, or even Resident Evil 7/ Final Fantasy 15 ports, but Hyrule warriors (which I missed out on and will buy day one!), Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, and Dark Souls are pretty good announcements, plus we get a Mario Tennis (yay!) and finally a release date for Kirby.
World ends with you final mix was the most unexpected (and appreciated) port ever lol.
And here we are with anamazing port of Doom 2016 for the switch. I actually loved the gba port of doom as well. Wonder why no one talks about that game
@DEZn00ts I agree, Resident Evil would be SWEET on the Switch. After playing Doom (which was amazing on the Switch) and Resident Evil Revelations 1+2 I have no doubts Resident Evil 7 would look amazing. Sure they may have to cut down on the graphics a bit but I am sure it could run smoothly. I mean Skyrim looks friggin amazing too!
You know what would be cool? Resident evil 7 because you made Nintendo add that delicious 4gb of ram for the game... Might as well finally port it amirite?

Re: Rumour: Did Bethesda Just Tease DOOM 2 For This Year's E3?
At the very least, if not a sequel to Doom, give us a collection with all Three (yes even the third one) classics and port of Doom 64.
Re: Dragon Quest XI Switch Port Development "Still Unclear At This Moment In Time"
Wasn't Outlast 1 made an older Unreal Engine? And didn't those devs port their game within months?
Re: Rumour: Konami Is Bringing Its WiiWare ReBirth Series To Switch
Loved them all on wiiware. Would buy them again in a heartbeat
Re: Enjoy Bethesda Classics Such As DOOM And Skyrim In Pinball Form
Good... Now someone convince id software to port the Doom trilogy to switch, and if we are lucky, doom 64

Re: Infernium Will Scare Its Way Onto The NA eShop Next Week
@CarlosCoronado can I get a free game code and give it a try?
Re: Infernium Will Scare Its Way Onto The NA eShop Next Week
This looks so lame, dunno why
Re: Review: Outlast 2 (Switch eShop)
@PC_Screen Agreed. Red barrels did a damn good job and I wanna see anyone claim the Switch isn't a viable platform for horror games

@Branovices I've been gaming since before the nes dude.
Re: Review: Castle of Heart (Switch eShop)
I hate this modern approach to making games longer. Harder doesn't always mean fun.

Re: Your Prayers Have Been Answered, Hori Is Making A Joy-Con With A Proper D-Pad
Omg this is exactly what I need. Thank you hori
Re: Review: Shantae And The Pirate's Curse (Switch eShop)
After all the re-releases, you'd think they would price them cheaper. Oh well. I'll get it when it's on sale
Re: Review: Kona (Switch eShop)
Are we ever gonna get some pure horror games and not just PT/Outlast rip offs on the Switch?
Re: Feature: SNES-Style RPG Hazelnut Bastille Coming To Switch With Secret of Mana Composer In Tow

Re: Hackers Are On A Mission To Port More Doom To Switch
Why dont they just officially give us a trilogy port? And/or Doom 64?
Re: Nintendo Download: 22nd February (North America)
Been waiting long enough for Hollow. Now we just need all the other rumored horror games!
Re: Cult Super Famicom Title Majyuuou Is Making A Comeback
Feels like a waste for them not to release this on modern platforms.

@Balladeer don't give Kickstarter-tards any ideas
Re: YouTubers Bring The Pain In The Wacky World Of Subscribe & Punch!
Yay I guess?
Re: Review: AeternoBlade (Switch eShop)
@Joker13z Even $5 is asking too much for this game. Sadly there are f2p mobile titles with more life in them than this game.

Re: Feature: The Biggest Nintendo Switch Retail Games of 2018
Lol at the most votes being given to Labo.
Re: Zombie Horror Returns To Japanese Arcades With House Of The Dead: Scarlet Dawn
Ok so if this won't come to switch any time Soon, why not a port of overkill for the Switch? Seems it would be fun with joy con motion controls
Re: Nintendo's French Boss Says We Should Expect More Switch Announcements From EA
@retro_player_22 Leave him be, he's one of the gloomiest people on the site - bordering on Trolling.
Re: Nintendo's French Boss Says We Should Expect More Switch Announcements From EA
@KryptoKrunch How about Extraction, Dead space Trilogy & The mobile game (which wasn't bad at all) remasters for the Switch? We can always dream...
Re: Feature: Here's What Was Announced During The January 2018 Nintendo Direct Mini
Ok so this was a pretty decent Direct. Obviously wasn't as amazing as say they had announced a Metroid Prime Trilogy Remaster, Virtual Console, or even Resident Evil 7/ Final Fantasy 15 ports,
but Hyrule warriors (which I missed out on and will buy day one!), Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, and Dark Souls are pretty good announcements, plus we get a Mario Tennis (yay!) and finally a release date for Kirby.

Love these guys and their controllers but I absolutely love how much they listen to their customers and release updates frequently.
Re: How DOOM On The SNES Pushed The Hardware To Its Technical Limits
And here we are with anamazing port of Doom 2016 for the switch. I actually loved the gba port of doom as well. Wonder why no one talks about that game
Re: Feature: Memorable Games of 2017 - Thumper
Off-Topic:
8bitdo just updated the SF and SN 30 pro controllers to v1.22 with fixes for connectivity.
End of year gift I guess?

Project Octopath sounds fine for the game's title now anyways, we are all used to it. Let's get the game out asap tho
Re: SoulCalibur VI Isn't In Development For Switch, But That Might Change In The Future
I'd rather they focus on a Tekken for Switch or a new Ridge Racer (how long has it been since we saw a new entry?)
Re: Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 Plus Is Heading To Switch, Includes Exclusive Co-Op Mode
@KIRO 8 bucks would be amazing but let's face it, they're gonna charge 20 bucks or so
Re: Site News: A Fond Farewell from Nintendo Life Editor, Thomas Whitehead
