I have my physical copy so...

There is a video offscreen with a lot of gameplay and I swear, this game is becoming one of my most anticipated game for 2019/2020.

The game is really good based on what I see.

WOW, I'm really interested by the game.
It runs really good, 60fps 1080p and the game is more nervous too.
I really like what I see but I'm sure it's not going to be better than BOTW.

Whatever, it's on my wishlist now ! Thanx NL !

PS : nobody was upset that BOTW took inspiration on Assassin's Creed, Witcher or Skyrim... so why being upset with Genshin Impact ?

@electrolite77

Need I remind you that Fifa20 is going to be available in a month ?
Let's check where FE 3 houses is going be on the chart at the same moment.

Just for info Fifa 19 was released in septembre 2018.

People are going to tell me that they're impressed FE Three Houses is at the 1st place when its release date was just a week ago ? LOL

What is really impressive is that Fifa 19 is STILL 2nd after an entire year on the market.

@cryptologous

Do you really think that Monolith Soft had another experience with the Wii U before Xenoblade Chronicles X ?
Do you really think that Monolith Soft wasn't aware about the Switch hardware from the start of the development for Xeno2 ?

Whatever, the result stays the result and I'm sorry to say it again but Deamon X Machina runs poorly and the demo ahs shown how not engaging is that game.

It's just my opinion and I understand if you think different but for my standards, the game is mediocre.

Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia is my number 1.

This game is 10 times better than Bloodstained.

@cryptologous

A WiiU has a weaker processor and 1Gb of RAM compare to the 4Gb of the Switch...
AND GUESS WHAT ?

Xenoblade Chronicles X runs 10 times better than Xenoblade Chronicles 2 with much more impressive graphics and it runs way better.
So now, explain me why something massive like X with trillion stuffs everywhere can run like that and in the same time Deamon X Machina or Xenoblade Chronicles 2 run poorly on a more powerful system ?

Don't need to say anything.

@DenDen

You're absolutely wrong.
Zelda BOTW is probably my favorite game for the last 10 years.

Excuse me to be critical about the catalogue of today...
Or we get old games, or games without ambitions, or game with technical issues and the cherry on the pie, the joycons are not reliable at all.

I know that fanboys defend blindly their almighty brand but I'm not like that.
When Nintendo brings Zelda BOTW, I'm the 1st one to applaud but when I get ports, unfinished games, hardware issues... I don't try to put the dust under the mat.

@acachewowow

I played it on XboxOne X. It was cool but to be honest, I don't like the game.
I prefer 100 times the real Castlevanias.

@cryptologous

I don't get your point.
My eyes are not burning when I play Mariokart8, the same with donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze etc...

I'm sorry but Deamon X Machina is really bad when it's about framerate, resolution and AA.

I'm really speechless about some posts here.

I don't understand how some people can be so tolerant with the developers. It's like "no problem I will play my game next year, the time that the team work on the game".

This is crazy and I'm not surprised that today, games run like crap day one for the majority of them.
With gamers that excuse everything like that, game companies can do what they want.

Let's be realistic, it's a shame to sell a product in that state.
Am I the only one who think that they deserve to have bad sells ?

Even at 60fps, I'm not going to buy this game.
I absolutely hated the demo, the design is ugly, the sensations are not there, the gameplay is not engaging, the colours are atrocious, the resolution is too low with no antialiasing...

Too much things that I don't like in this game. A huge pass for me.

If we talk about a NeoGeo 2, it's an INSTABUY for me !

I really like what I hear.

I think Igarashi liked the work of Sawano such as Gundam or Xenoblade Chronicles X soundtrack.

Their tunes match perfectly :

@JasmineDragon : "So you're just going to pretend Echoes didn't happen, or would its launch week sales of 133k just mess up your narrative?"

Are you serious ? I ask myself how it is possible to not understand the context.

Use your common sense in the right way please.

Do I have to remember you that the Nintendo Switch was released just 1 month before FE Echoes ?
I'm not going to develop, I imagine that you'll get the point by yourself...

Think long and hard before you respond...

Just to clear a little the situation :

Yokoi is not involved directly with the Gameboy.
He is only the guy who signed documents and that's it.
The fact that he was the boss of the RND1 doesn't mean that he is the creator.

Okada IS the Gameboy's father, not Yokoi.

Fates 260.000
Awakening 240.000
Three houses 140.000 ?

That's a huge drop... what happend ?
Probablably a question of low framerate coupled with the "too bland" graphics. :/
Thank you Koei Tecmo.

"The visual downgrade on the Switch version can be a little hard on the eye"

What ?

@Galarian_Lassie

Damn, could you make an effort ?

Read again what I wrote on my first message :
"PS : the trailer SEEMS to be ripped off from the video that Super Metal Dave did in June... SMD did a 60fps interpolation to show how the game would feel at a double framerate."

SEEMS... I never said IT IS.

I just tell you that when you watch the begin of the trailer from Nintendo UK ... IT SEEMS to be like on the 60fps video from SMD64.

Hope it's clear now ?

Wow 7/10 ?

@gearhound

Are you serious ?
I TALKED ABOUT 60FPS FOOTAGE !
Duhhhh, the images don't come directly from Super Metal Dave... lol

To make it short, the game runs at 30fps BUT it seems to run at 60 in the video.
My point was that it's exactly what Super Metal Dave did by interpolation to turn a 30fps video to 60 !

@Galarian_Lassie read the message just above and perhaps you'll get what message is very, very stupid.

@DaSwitcher

Sadly the game runs at 30fps and in a "low resolution".
It's the only game that interest me this year on the Switch so I'm going to buy it but I can't stop being sad that this game is not running on another systems with minimum 1080p/60fps or better 4K/60fps.

PS : the trailer seems to be ripped off from the video that Super Metal Dave did in June... SMD did a 60fps interpolation to show how the game would feel at a double framerate. I can't believe it...

@JasmineDragon

Why does it matter ?
I don't know... maybe it's more pleasant for the eye to see something FLUID rather than something jerky... lol

My inner thought is that this Fire Emblem is more a KOEI TECMO game than an Intelligent System one.
The game in itself is good but everything around is mediocre.
A Koei Tecmo symptoms in some ways. :/

@JasmineDragon : "FE is a turn-based tactical RPG. Reaction times literally don't matter at all and the animated content is totally secondary. Most of the actual game is selecting things from static menus. What does it matter what its frame rate is?"

Defend an ugly game, with nothing crazy on screen that runs even not smoothly... it's something that only a fanboy can do.

For example, could you tell me why Path Of Radiance runs at steady 60fps then ? Just for fun ? Lol

I'm sorry but a game that ugly should AT LEAST, runs at a steady butter smooth 60fps...

I would like a real Switch PRO. What I mean by that is a machine that display at least 1080p/60fps on TV.
I'm tired to play 540/720p on a 65" 4K TV and even not at 60fps for the most of the games. :/

I tried Breath of the Wild on my PC. Just that upscale to 4K with 60fps locked... it's breathtaking.

Look, I was interested in the new Fire Emblem but sorry, visually speaking it's not possible in 2019 and the worst is that the game is not reaching 30fps stable...

We need a Switch PRO !

I went back to the best visually designed console ever : The almighty Megadrive !

What a masterpiece...

@Zequio

Amiibos were supported.
My little cousin was disgusted that he couldn't use his huge collection of Amiibos as he did on the Wii U.

He could play online for FREE and WITHOUT LAGS on the Wii U but on the Switch its not the case. Sometimes it's fluid, sometimes not.

He had a level erased on the Switch, it was never the case on the Wii U.

The gameplay was better on Wii U because you didn't have to switch between two different screens, the Wii U offer the double screen with the gamepad that the Switch can't.

So, yeah it was better on the Wii U.

@templag : "already finished it on switch. achieving for 100% completion. maybe your standard is too high?"

My standard is not too high... I finished the game on XBOX One X.
4K/60pps.
So, when I tried the game on Switch I was holding my head in my two hands.

The Switch version of the game is atrocious, that's not a question of "standard".

@Totaldude911
I was sarcastic dude.

They should have played on Switch to do that, at least they would have seen that the game was an insult for the Switch owners.

Furthermore, I think the game in itself is not that good but on Switch, it's the rotten cherry on the pie.

PS : they have the time to play ? I thought they're working really hard to fix the Switch version... it was plan to get a fix for the 15th July BTW. lol

@Zequio :"how is the online service "pseudo" I play Mario Kart, Splatoon, Tertis 99, etc on line, and it works, paying much less that other online services."

Maybe because the Online Service was better on the WiiU FOR FREE... to play MArioKart 8, Splatoon, Mario Maker etc...

When I think that people are paying for that pseudo Online Service, I don't know if I have to laugh or cry...

Like it wasn't enough that the game lags online, now your levels can be deleted like that...

Where is the time of free online service ? Such a shame.

BTW , this game does not deserve 10/10 at all... 10/10 means a certain kind of perfection and SMM2 is farrrrrr from that, really far.

@humbucker : "my joycons was drifting really bad, to the point that it wouldn’t even calibrate. I got my Switch for Christmas...and I only had to pay shipping."

Customers like you are gold for big companies.
You're really a kind guy humbucker because it's absolutely insane to have to pay even 1 cent for something that you just bought (Christmas)...

In a normal world, your Switch should work perfectly and if there is a problem, Nintendo should do a change for free through a return policy with the store you got your Switch.

The first thing to fix with this game is THE NETWORK.
Damn, I try to play online at my cousin's place and I was forced to stop that bad it was.

You can play some courses and suddenly micro freezes, low framerate, choppiness... :/
My cousin has no problem when he is online on Xbox One/PS4 or PC/tablet... only on Switch.

@gamekill

Yeah BUT you play with the Joycons in your hands... Do not try this with the Lite LOL !

@thesilverbrick Out of the box ! You can't.
There is no reason to buy extra stuffs to do something (and still less) that the original Switch does... lol

@thesilverbrick
Table top is not available on the LITE ! They even removed the kickstand.

Now, how to justify playing HANDHELD if it's to play with an extra cost contoller... ? That makes no sense.
And if you're ready to pay a handheld $200 and to add $60 for a Pro Controller ehmmm, buy a standard Switch then. LOL

@60frames-please

I'm drooling...

@personauser93 100% compatible on the statement 60fps should be just normal. ^^

@Sabroni You should look better, there is a trailer.

The good price for the Lite will be $149.

No Dock
No Switch TV/HH
No Joycons
No 2 players mode
No tabletop mode
No Labo/Mario Party/1-2 Switch/Snipperclip etc...
No 6.2" screen
No HDMI cable

For the same price you get really better preowned system + games.

I can already see that the framerate is going to be low and choppy on the Switch. :/

Last time I re-watch some of the Nintendo Directs from the WiiU era and guess what... my eyes were wet.

I know that it sounds stupid but Saturo Iwata was a special man.
He carried intelligence, love, kindness and passion at so high levels that nobody is able to replace him.

@60frames-please

We are talking the same way my friend. I think 60fps should be just THE STANDARD, no need to discuss more or less... 60 fps and nothing else.

@60frames-please You see how many thumbs down you got just to have tell the truth ?
How is it possible to give your opinion in situations like these ?

The thumb up came from me btw.

@Agramonte

This is what I think too.

Astral Chain is the only game that I'm interested in for the entire year on the Switch.
My only "problem" is the framerate and the resolution. 30fps for a game like that it's almost a crime.
I don't know if Nintendo has signed the game as an exclusive title for the Switch or not but I'd like to see this game running at 60fps/4K on another system.

I'm still playing Lunar as I did last weekend. What a GEM !

Left grey joycon works like crap for me.

I can't wait the disaster with the Switch Lite because there is no replacement possible with this machine.

PS : I never had any problem with my other consoles, NES/SNES/N64/NGC/Wii/WiiU but the Switch is king when it's about problems :

Joycon drifting
Reboots
Crashes
etc...

"there’s noticeable blurring and screen-tearing at times"

I keep my PS4 version.
