Re: The Easiest Nintendo Switch Games

Notsoavid

Um, no, sorry guys. This list should be called most accessible switch games if accessibility didn't already have another definition in gaming. The last boss in Kirby was nothing to sneeze at, and MarioKart lives online - where the competition is HARD. Just because a game has a set of options that make the game less daunting, doesn’t mean it’s necessarily “easy”…

Re: Review: Sonic Superstars - A Fine, Authentic-Feeling Return That Runs Great On Switch

@GooseLoose1

That’s fair. Sounds like the forced effort didn’t pan out the way they hoped. I won’t disagree with you on that, and it seems like you’ve played more recent sonic games than I have. I just think the balance is in how much weight one puts on features of a game. It deserved to be called out on an unsuccessful multiplayer mode. However, from my perspective, if someone were reviewing Splatoon 3 and putting too much weight on its single player campaign (which thankfully is good), I would raise an eyebrow at that as well because the game was multiplayer from its ideological inception.

Oh and sorry for deleting my previous comment, I was worried it had become a little too trolly and self-indulgent - not my intended online presence.

Re: Talking Point: What Do You Want From A 'Splatoon 4'?

Ive been playing Splatoon since the first one on WiiU. I honestly dont feel like much needs to be changed in the fundamentals except for possibly smarter match making. The wonderful thing about these games is that I can put in 100 hours and then come back for splatfests (and now big runs) but still play OTHER GAMES (gasp) in between. It always stays fresh to me. Splatoon is one of my favorite franchises as is.

Re: Super Mario Bros. Wonder Online Multiplayer Revealed, No Online Co-op

I’m not really disappointed. Being able to see and interact with other players online is a nice reminder that I’m a part of a community. I don’t think that most platformer games are really designed around more than one player anyway. While it’s fun to play certain platformers with my son in couch co-op mode, if I’m playing with someone old enough to appreciate online play we should probably be playing Splatoon 3 or Mariokart 8 together anyway

Re: Best Switch Ports - The Most Impressive Ports On Nintendo Switch

Notsoavid

Some of these are great. I thought Persona 5 was an awesome port (seriously, look at the install size difference between the ps4 version and the switch version) but I thought that the switch version of the witcher wasn't worth the effort. Also, wasnt Bayonetta 2 a WiiU exclusive!? Not really achieving much in that port there….
