@Max_the_German It hasn’t been confirmed, but since it’s a straight port (as Xbox isn’t getting it as it’s already 4K,) I doubt they’ll boost the frames just for PS.
If this still had the multiplayer with the single player + Undead Nightmares on the cartridge, I’d be so happy to buy this day 1 physically.
This is like $30 worthy - $20 for the base game and UDN for $10. It’s a port, not a remaster; reason it’s not coming to Xbox since that’s already 4K and I doubt they’ll boost the FPS to 60 on PS.
If it even comes out LOL - there’s countless Nintendo Switch supported Kickstarters that are STILL developing their games way past their expected dates, with some being from reputable developers/publishers
I remember when Starlink came out, there was more reports than ever of missing cartridges. Worker at Best Buy was kind enough to allow me to check; low and behold, it was missing - sealed!
With a title like “We have to do this now,” you’d think this is a make it or break it game for Headcannon, when it was just when the team thought a yo-yo would be a great tool for combat and movement
As someone that watched Survivor religiously with the family when I was a kid, what a weird call to make a game now and not during the Wii era when reality show games were rampant.
Microids is definitely the better of the slew of casual game developers, but they also published Fort Boyard which was a POS.
I’d love to support Ubisoft on releasing new games on the Switch (or porting something current gen instead of X360/PS3 era ports or remasters,) but The Settlers isn’t my cup of tea. Probably will try it out if it goes on a deep sale.
@Lizuka Maybe, but last November ‘Direct’ was an Indie World and years during the Switch’s lifecycle, they were exclusively for specific games (like Smash Bros. or Xenoblade.)
The September Direct is usually for the first half/Q1 of the next year, so maybe Luigi Mansion: Dark Moon or the Princess Peach game is coming out early next year.
Could also have another shadow drop of a legacy game or an addition to Nintendo Switch Online (new games on existing platforms, DS, Gamecube, or really anything as Sega Genesis games are a separate addition.)
And just because they announced the games already won’t stop them from showing more (or have a 5-10 minute game showcase during it.)
Are people forgetting Nintendo usually has a Direct in September? Usually mid-September, but I’m sure a direct is somehow connected to being behind closed doors at TGS (won’t stop the leakers though tee hee)
Please do this for more games! Big gaming websites that I know of haven’t done this. Not only interesting, but informative and up to date information is great.
Seems like most still occurring glitches are humorous with the rare occurrence of being soft locked at specific missions.
It partially makes sense as it’s a live service game similar to Overwatch when you’ll constantly be updating it; is this 2K straight up saying “Once the servers are offline, your game goes bye bye”?
Surprised with the comments about Asphalt; once you get far enough in the game, it pretty much forces your hand on buying MTX for either new cars or upgrading/buffing your maxed out cars without having to grind out the repetitive event missions.
@steventonysmith I’m the same way, enjoying Dreamlight Valley, but since it’s in early access, I’m not giving Gameloft a free pass yet on not ruining the game.
@Savage_Joe LOL I own a retail store and a good chunk of items that are on sale on Black Friday are wholesale or a little over it (how much we spent to get the item from a vendor.)
First cloud version game I’ll probably never support as it doesn’t seem too graphically intensive for the Switch as it runs on Unreal Engine; was probably a time pressed issue, but would rather either have it get canned, delayed, or maybe the cloud release with a potential native port in the future.
Most likely this was released early if Nintendo Life is reporting on it, but Nintendo Everything’s source was also ppe.pl and ppe.pl’s source was just considered one of their readers.
Shouldn’t this be marked as a rumor? Anyone that can use Photoshop well can make these advertisements.
I love the excuses of “Oh, they’re just kidding” or “It’s just a joke, we’re making fun of the app!”
It’s just so stupid people are giving this app attention - something shovel ware developers DO NOT deserve. It’s a tool that comes with most modern non-gaming devices.
RIP to the people like me that mainly play portable and want Bowser’s Fury at 60 FPS. Luckily it’s only 3 hours to get through the story according to a pre review article.
Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes and Phantom Pain both released on last gen.
Call of Duty has had Modern Warfare 1+2 Remastered and could easily just port the originals over.
Tomb Raider and Rise of the Tomb Raider released on Xbox 360; Shadow may be the troublesome one as that was only current gen.
The Sims has had GAME BOY ADVANCE ports. If they can squeeze The Sims on a GBA, they can for a Switch.
Every Grand Theft Auto has been on hardware weaker than the Switch - this is the one most surprising as the most current and supported entry ran on last gen as well.
Ridge Racer was rumored not too long ago, but also was rumored to be shelved, so there’s still hope for an exclusive or even a multi-platform.

@MS7000 With your attitude, I’m going to play nothing.
Re: The 3DS Game Miitopia Is Coming To Nintendo Switch This May
@MS7000 Your first comment: Ahh yes... Nintendo is starting to run out of Wii U games, so start porting from the other console out at the time...
The Switch is just gonna be a port machine for Nintendo's best games from last generation isn't it?
You’re part of the ‘also’ Nintendo fans.

Re: Feature: 6 Huge Video Game Franchises Missing From Nintendo Switch
@Doktor-Mandrake And where did I say it wouldn’t be hard work to port those engines to the Switch?
The games themselves are able to be ported, hence why they’re all included on this article, the engines is where the work will be done.

Re: Playism Shares Debut Trailer For Grasshopper's Upcoming Switch Release The Silver 2425
Heart stopped thinking this was a second announcement for the western release
Odd it came out worldwide on PC, US first on PS4, and comes out in Japan first on Switch.
If the PS4 EN to JP version is anything to go about, we’ll probably get a western version in late 2021/early 2022.
