@ThatNyteDaez Considering you can access the game offline, that won't be an issue. But I would assume after not supporting the game by themselves anymore, they either unlock the online or set an automatic timer.
“Nintendo Switch Online subscribers will have ongoing access to a library of classic games with added online play. Users can play as many of the games as they want, as often as they like, as long as they have an active subscription.”
The real kicker is that the hoax was realized literally more than a day or two earlier than he wanted. Serves the bootyhole right. And I call him that because BitBlock is an awful person in general.
@Dakt development isn't just about the graphics, it's also about the backend. Namely the fact that you can transfer saves and crossplay between different systems locally and now through online, which 3U 3DS and Wii U didn't do.
@Dakt At the last minute meaning a year in advance? If a proper MH5 were to happen and it's not a Switch exclusive, I would bet that Capcom is willing enough to do a PS4/Switch release solely because they can have an excuse to limit the graphical workload on it by using the Switch version as the baseline.
@AlbertXi It's a game that's getting free character, stage, and weapon content. It'll turn into a game worth the money they ask. Just like Splatoon did.
It's not a big deal breaker, but what's Tantalus' excuse for this. They had to deal with the hurdles that was simultaneous streaming between two resolutions for twilight princess, what makes this harder.
I'm beginning to thing it's just a manufacturing hiccup regarding the first wave Switches. A lot of people claim that a new Switch is actually very slightly angled out of the box. Nothing about heat warping.
It's framerate stability. Stability is much improved in areas like the Great Plataeu and the Korok Forest, two of the most hit areas. While docked slowdown still exists, its much less severe than it used to be. Almost not there in handheld mode.
@neufel The core mechanics for every metal slug game is the same, though the first game obviously has less weapon upgrades and vehicles. The main differences between them are the settings that are always different in every game.
I will wonder if they up the tickrate by the release, considering how these tests are literal tests. Even as a HIGH LEVEL SPLOOT PLAYER, I had trouble noticing anything off about it.
One has to realize that the difference in manufacturing cost between 8GB and 16GB is negligible to a company as big as Warner Brothers. They weren't forced to take the 8GB carts as their only viable option. Even at 16 GB, having a relatively small install download of 3 or 4GB is preferable to THIS.
You always come up with different, creative ways to piss me off, WB.
It's strange how none of this stuff happened during every switch preview event. And that event had as much interference as an event can. With people playing 1, 2 Switch while in lines to OTHER GAMES.

Re: Former Project M Devs Unveil Icons: Combat Arena; It Sure Looks Like Smash Bros.
My main gripe is the designs. None of them are good. From the characters to the stages. They aren't good. If they were good I would be more into it.

From their example, it seems like it's available for most of the week, with some days skipped.

@rjejr They can put free on the title because the online service being paid does not inhibit you from downloading the free characters they release.

@nhSnork It's about companies playing catch up after rushing out for the launch month.

Re: The Nintendo Switch Downloads Faster in Sleep Mode
Sounds about right. Luckily the default download speed isn't too shabby either, unlike PS4.
