It'll be Donkey Kong Odyssey. That'll be the formula for everything for a while now. Started with BotW and will move on through their franchises for a while.

@Kayfios He was making a joke that in a day and age where companies want to sell you a digital copy of a game for the 17th time, that someone would put out a product that allows you to play things you have already paid for and already own.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE It always confused me that they didn't even include the home button on the WiiU version. They already changed the button amount for the WiiU version from the arcade original anyways, so why leave that off?
Console gamers usually swallow everything they're handed, unlike PC gamers. I'm legitimately surprised they fought back against this to the point where it actually got changed.
Just got a call from my local Gamestop about SNES Mini tomorrow. They have 12 units, 47 preorders. Orders 1-3 are all 1 guy, 5 & 6 are another guy, 10 and 11 are 3rd guy. I still get mine so I'm happy.
@SLIGEACH_EIRE Just so you know, if you got it in Gamestop and your local shop is doing a midnight launch for FIFA, you can actually pick it up at midnight.
MvC:I has been panned since they first ever showed it. It's supposedly extremely basic as a fighting game too. Not to mention DLC/season pass shenanigans. Oh and original MvC had about 4 times as many characters, 17 years ago...
@koekiemonster He needs to be at a better company. He's the head of the US branch of a Japanese company. His words and suggestions and everything carry weight, but he can't actually do anything about things. Everything has to be approved by Japan.
Well, if the 540p 30fps lowest settings is true, this proves you can write off most Switch 3rd party ports. If the most optimized engine there is looks like this on Switch, no one else will both outside sports games.

Re: Reggie on Backing Up Your Saves with the Switch
Reggie full of it as usual.
Sync when connected to any internet source. Allow it to be transferred to the microSD card.
Even the 360, a 2005 console got them down the line. But we've already established that Nintendo is already pre-2002 with the Switch.
Reggie is so full of it.

This is going to be an absolute mess.

Re: Shin Megami Tensei V is Coming to the Nintendo Switch
@retro_player_22 Considering that almost all Persona games are better than main series SMT, no, it won't be.

It won't come close to Persona 5, but I'll be looking forward to this.

@PanurgeJr Just like the rest of the 99% of trash this console has been getting, right.
Re: Metal Gear Solid Parody Never Stop Sneakin' Is, Erm, Sneakin' To Switch Soon
Closest thing Switch will get to a Metal Gear Solid game probably.

@DJ_Siniestro Just buy the WiiU version instead. It works on Switch exactly the same and it's cheaper.

Of course they won't have a competent replacement ready.
