@ItsOKToBeOK sorry, I guess it was only my mind that went into the gutter with that definition. Lol.

@ItsOKToBeOK from Webster : "a physical activity engaged in for pleasure"

Hmmmmmmmmm.
🤔

@Prizm "So instead, here's a 5th port of our 30 year old game."

1080 snowboarding was cool and all, but Snowboard kids was the real GOAT.

If the battle pass is $10, I'll purchase it (once), just because I love me some bomberman, even if I suck at it.

@GamingFan4Lyf I wish this were true. There are so many games (even on the Wii/Wii U) that still aren't available on the Switch be it the NSO or the eshop.

@Erock I would have preferred Super Batter up.

@ralphdibny yeah I bought most of the BC sonic games on 360. Didn't get sonic fighters or the original sonic adventure, but I have the rest of those.

@Inc I actually recently payed full price ($20?) for sonic generations on 360 so I could play it on my series s.

I bought my Switch back in 2017 and actually bought 2 last year. Got a lite for my wife because she likes Animal Crossing. And got my son one for Christmas.

Not enough gameplay for me to formulate an opinion. Art style seems decent. And the concept is ambitious.

@stevep You do know that it's also on PS4 right? If Microsoft paid to keep it off a platform, would it be Nintendo or PS4...?

@Ghost_of_Hasashi Isn't there an actual remastered version coming out a month later?

Probably getting this for my kids.

Been saying this for awhile. My bet is that Microsoft is planning on releasing the Edge browser on the Switch, and it will be through that browser that Xcloud streaming can be possible.

Wait wait wait. The name of this game is actually "New Pokémon Snap"? Oh, Nintendo... Smh

@DomGC
"How much did World do on just ps4?"

Take this with several grains of salt.

Tweet from Nov 2020:

"Capcom MHW sales numbers were leaked.
PC USA: 1.616mil
PC EU: 1.570 mil
PC Asia: 2.531 mil
PC NonJP Total: 5.717 mil

Sony USA: 2.392 mil
Sony EU: 1.702 mil
Sony Asia: 1.414 mil
Sony NonJP Total: 5.509 mil

PC Japan: 236k
Sony Japan: 3.184mil"

That would put the PS4 version at 8.7(ish) mil.

@HamatoYoshi "Hopefully now Capcom will develop Switch exclusive Resident Evil and Street Fighter games."

I don't need them to be exclusive. I just need them to exist on the Switch. Street Fighter 6 across all platforms with cross play.

That's the dream right there.

This looks almost nothing like Sea of Thieves. The setting is about it. Gameplay looks way different.

This is a good discussion to have but typically goes nowhere on online forums. I would suggest ending it now.

If you really want to learn about race issues, there are professionals who have been researching and studying it for quite a while and have data to back up their assertions. They do zoom calls / other presentations periodically.

@X68000 Oh, I thought this was guardian heroes as well. The beat em up. Oh well.

Are any of these in English?

Honestly might get this for my 5 year old. Looks way easier than the actual Donkey Kong.

No one is asking the most important question. Can it turn on the Switch?

Sincerely,
A lazy bum

This is great. I don't plan to jump on these games right now, but I will pick it up as soon as it goes on sale.

@Grahamthecracker

"I don’t have HIGH hopes for this because it’s several years old now but Rare Replay would be my biggest hope. Yes xCloud would be great but Rare Replay almost made me buy an Xbox One"

Real talk. I pre-ordered the batman arkham knight ps4 and weeks later Rare Replay was announced for Xbox one and I canceled my pre order and bought an Xbox one.

I don't think a head count is needed to know that it is definitely a minority that is interested in the pro. That said, even 10% interest means 7 million in sales for launch. Others will fall in line eventually especially with the whole fear of missing out driving some purchases.

@Crono1973 You're not wrong. I'm a simple man with simple tastes. And it doesn't get much simpler than Pac Man.

@ViewtifulJotun this is my first monster hunter and I've been playing charge blade too. First weapon that clicked for me.

@HexagonSun I knew monster hunter rise would be a hard game for me to get into because I didn't even like the demos (due to the complexity).

What did work was setting aside 3 hours to just go through single player and learn the ropes. The game actually does a great job of slowly introducing you to its mechanics and slowly boosting the difficulty. If I tried to play for 30 minutes and then move on, it wouldn't have clicked and I probably would've been frustrated. Now I can play in 30 minute spurts with no problem and I find the game very enjoyable.

This game was great. I've been waiting for a sequel (or even a Switch port).

Seriously guys, what do you actually expect a handheld console to look like? No one's suing Nintendo for their pro controller looking like an Xbox controller. No one is suing Dell because their laptop looks like an HP laptop. No one's suing Honda because the Honda fit looks like a Chevy spark. Relax, guys. Besides their hardware is probably going to suck anyway. 😎

Something about the in battle characters / animations seem off...

Solid list. It's probably accurate that the SNES / GBA libraries consist of most of my favorite games.

Spent a lot of time on the Shining Soul series (which was great fun with a friend).

Well this doesn't bode well for Valheim on Switch. Hopefully, it comes to one of the other consoles.

@ILikeStake this is so true. Once you start referring to people as left or right, the likelihood of a civil discussion goes out the window.

On April 1st, watch them surprise drop Mario is Missing.

@Toy_Link no, actually the sky is falling on March 31st.

@dannym2091 No clue, been too long. If I had to guess, just a status effect (probably sleep) + ultra balls until he stayed put.

Tyranitar remains my favorite Pokémon to this day. Partially because of how hard it was just to level him up. And once he finally evolved, he instantly became OP. Almost as satisfying as getting Gyarados for the first time.

I hope you all realize that when the "Switch pro" finally releases, the Switch would have been out for almost 5 years.

Floss to go with your toothbrushes, let's go!

@PapaPedro @Wazeddie22 @Bunkerneath

I also didn't do any grinding since I had a team A and team B. I did everyone's chapter 1. Then I did the rest of team A's chapters. After team A was finished, I switched to team B and did all of their chapters.

@Thaliard Rage wars, yes! Also, I never passed the 1st level of Turok 2, lol. I may give it another try at some point. I never properly beat the 1st one (only beat it with cheat codes), though I have such fond memories of playing through it.

I spend more time with indies than anything else. Working through Hades and Cross code now.

Loved Rock n roll racing and lost viking. Take my money.

I legit use my Switch to mostly play old games lol

And indies.

I was happy with it. But I'm a simple man that likes simple things :
Project Triangle
Legend of Mana
Mario Golf
No more heroes 3
Ninja Gaiden
Skyward Sword
Fall Guys
Saga Frontier

@Ganner Minecraft Steve while eating his meat.

I sold my Wii U and all its games a couple years ago. So I'm happy to re buy Mario 3D world for the Switch. Plus the whole local multiplayer / online with everyone having their own screen is great.

@GC-161 I hate your avatar.
