I have a love/hate relationship with these. It's always so interesting to see the games i played over the year but conversely i always feel so guilty when I see just how much time I spent not doing anything productive lol
@TDRsuperstar2 I'm about 20 or so hours into SMT 5 and so far it's great but honestly Xenoblade 2 is my all time favorite rpg on the switch, Xenoblade definitive is not far behind it.
I think I might pick up Lost in Random, reviewed decent enough and I'm a sucker for that art style. If not I'll probably pick up Kena on the PS5 and give that a go.
@Jedge396 I've put about 50 hours in so far and I'm really enjoying it. I would definitely recommend it but I think it's been on sale at some random outlet since like week two so if you have a backlog probably no rush in getting it.
It keeps telling me the digital/download version for Immortals: Fenyx Rising is sold out at checkout... didn't know you could run out of digital copies!
Update: I chatted with an ubisoft agent and it's not available digitally for switch due to licensing, just in case anyone else wanted to buy digital and take advantage of the extra discount
This is the one time I hope Grubb is wrong and we see it release side by side with the other consoles... but dang he has a good track record on this stuff... so disappointing.
@Tyranexx, @the_beaver don't let it keep you from getting these games... I'm not a fan of fps games either but these (especially 1 and infinite) are some of my favorite games of all time.
I'm more excited for them to patch it... not a graphics snob by any stretch and normally don't see graphics issues when others do but when I started the game the pop-in etc was even noticeable to me so I'm holding off on playing it.. crazy excited to play this game on the go when it is released!
After some time away from it, decided to dive back into Dragon Quest XI S for the post game storyline and it reminded me how good that game is! Also going to play a bit of Borderlands Pre-Sequel as I never got to play it when it originally released
I really hope the rumors are true and they are going to be doing a proper Nintendo Direct in September because I haven't seen anything spark my interest in a direct since they announced Bioshock and Borderlands
@Dromosus Right?!? At this point Baldo is my most anticipated game and it's like they just forgot about it. Last I heard it was releasing summer as a timed exclusive but they're running out of time for that release window
Although I can't argue about the convenience of playing a game digitally and not having to switch a cartridge out I go physical whenever possible. I still love the feeling of holding that game in my hand and knowing I'll have that copy years down the road.
I think XC2 is one of the best RPGs available for the switch and never got this game so I can't wait for this release... If it's even half as good as XC2, day one for me
This is the one switch game I'm truly excited to get my hands on and now that they decided to release an actual physical copy, day one for me! By the by, when IS day one fellas??
My wife ended up buying me the switch on a birthday for Zelda and other exclusives. It turns out that the reason I had stopped playing video games as much wasn't because I was losing interest like I thought but rather my limited free time as I got older and the switch alleviated that issue. I for one will play any game on the switch first before my other systems for the simple fact that I will actually find time to play it thanks to its portability.
@The_Pixel_King In my honest opinion it's really good in handheld! Big screen takes a slight hit but at the end of the day, does it detract from how great a game it is? Not at all. And if you're like me with limited time and rely on handheld to get your gaming time in (got it on PS4 but just never had the time) it's a must buy. Sounds like from your list you can't go wrong though!
I'm nearing the end of Witcher 3 so now comes the tough decision of choosing which game in my backlog to play next: Ni No Kuni, Dragon Quest XI, or Fire Emblem: The Houses... decisions, decisions, decisions.
One of the 3 games I listed in the 'Nintendo ports we'd love to see' article! Already played it on my ps4 but I'll gladly fork out more money to play it portable. Please please say it's true!
MASS EFFECT TRILOGY PLEEEAASE! ... But while I'm wishing upon a star let's add Bioshock Trilogy, Borderlands: Handsome Jack and Parasite Eve to my personal switch port wishlist.

Re: UK Charts: Zelda: Skyward Sword HD Soars Straight To Number One
@eatdogs is really unfortunate it's not getting more attention, i know it stutters a bit on the switch but ultimately it's a really fun game

Re: Rumour: New Switch Model Launching Early 2021, According To Taiwanese Newspaper

Re: New Nintendo Infographic Shows Exciting Indies Coming To Switch In 2020 And Beyond

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 1st)
