@COVIDberry i know you didnt at me, but Dangerous Driving is Burnout 3 without crash mode or multiplayer. A lot of fun. Picked it up for a fiver a few weeks ago, and was blown away. Then found out it was the original Burnout team behind it. Now I'm really hyped for DD2.
@TG16_IS_BAE hey. Preaching to the choir. I fully agree and endorse backing up your own software. Been doing it since the 80s. But selling a commercial application for such? Just asking for trouble and piracy. I'm very much anti-piracy, but pro consumer, and homebrew/backups. It's a tricky area, that I havent seen a good answer to.
@Issac1070 eh. Quite a few eula have been thrown out due to being deemed illegal, or infringing on an individuals property rights, once they reach a court. They arent blanket protection for corporations. Now if you're if obviously doing something like pirating software, then yeah. You're in violation, and I'd be shocked if a court didnt uphold that. But as for just homebrew on a system you bought and own? Most likely not.
I agree with them 100%, right up until you start letting folks make backups and boot them. That's where you know the abuse will come in. Otherwise, homebrew away.
@Dr_Corndog When Infinite hit, it really disappointed my friends and I. It was way overhyped, and we personally expected more as huge 'Shock fans. That said, checking my expectations and hype a couple years later, and playing it with the dlc, it was a fun, far more actiony romp. It has a decent story, but didn't reach the heights of the first game, or Minervas Den. Playing it for the third time now, and I'm having a blast. It's a good thinking mans shooter on higher difficulties, and gorgeous on switch. Not as good as the first two, but the setting and smoothness of everything more than makes up for the lesser story.
@Kalmaro If you liked Gauntlet a lot, yes. It's a surprisingly fun gauntlet like game, that yes, has loot. However diablo like, or a full arpg it is not. Just gauntlet with more depths, and builds you can change on the fly. My son and I have been having a lot of fun with it, and I've even booted up by myself a few times now.
Harsh, but kind of fair. Opinions and all. Havent played in docked, but my son and I have sunk about 5 hours or so into handheld. It's been a blast. I dont look at it like a diablo style arpg. I get more of a gauntlet vibe, with some nice options for customization/class making. The systems arent that deep, but are quite nice in letting you switch up your whole playstyle on the fly. All around really fun game, with decent replayability. Most importantly, it's fun for kids and parents together. I'd personally give it a 7.5.
@Bearzilla823 Saw that on sale, and almost bought it, as it looked very hot shots to me. Then I read a bunch of reviews trashing it. Most complained about there only being one course, and bad controls.
@ the article. Man, we really need a good Hot Shots rip off, and some Mario Golf.
@Shinra This is just an addon for the second game, bundled with it and all other dlc. If you're interested, the base game is on sale until the 10th here in NA at least.
@patbacknitro18 Thanks for the info! Yeah, 5 games and a happy (and occasionally quiet one during chill time, screams aside) kid, are well worth $30 to me.
@patbacknitro18 wait, this really has the first 4 games included? Might grab this for my son if so. Hes a huge fan of the series and wants them on switch.
While I have zero doubt the games done and ready to print (leaks and behind the scenes talk for the last year, all point to it being ready to go gold), I doubt we will see it next month. I'd love to be wrong tho. My best guess would be that we will see it release about 4-6 months before 4 is done, and itll be released along with a trailer and vague date for 4. Which I really hope happens this holiday season, with a spring release for 4.

Re: DICE's Cancelled '90s Run-And-Gun Ultracore Gets New Lease Of Life On Switch
This looks good. Will definitely watch for reviews at that price tho. Especially as I've yet to put down Huntdown.
Re: Review: Invisible, Inc. Nintendo Switch Edition - Beautifully Accessible Turn-Based Tactics
A proper review for one of my all time favorites. Nice.
Re: EA Wants To Bring More Games To More Platforms - Including Nintendo Switch
Mass Effect Trilogy. All DLC included.
Crysis is already coming, but I'd also like the second one too.
Dragon Age series
Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2. Love that one.
Battlefield Bad Company 1 & 2
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 20th)
Definitely some Colt Canyon and Ruiner myself. A little Bioshock and Outer Worlds too.
Re: Two Point Hospital Gets A Free Sandbox Mode Update On Console
Nice! I've been waiting for this. One of my favorite games to just dip in and out of.

Re: Offside Legends Hopes To Bring Mario Strikers-Inspired Party Soccer To Switch
I'm intruiged
Re: Community: Found A Real Gem On Switch eShop? We Want To Hear From You
Just released: Colt Canyon. It's a wild west take on nuclear throne, but far more forgiving, and imo: fun. Great aesthetic too.
Re: Rumour: Pokémon Fans Speculate That Next Week's 'Big' Announcement Is Let's Go Johto
Probably not a game at all.
Re: Hail To The King, Baby - Duke Nukem 3D Is Coming To Switch This Month
It's not the Megaton version, and the redone lines are... well, sad. But it's still Duke and it's only $5. Sold!
Re: Developer Of Turn-Based Monochrome Mech Mash-Up Wolfstride Wants To Bring It To Switch

Re: Looks Like We're Finally Getting A New Zoids Game In The West
Heck yeah. Hope its last years, with all the dlc. Looked awesome.
Re: Sneaky Stealth Title Invisible, Inc. Just Surprise-Launched On Nintendo Switch
Only port left for me (from my port wishlist) now, is Spelunky.
Re: Mini Review: Super Toy Cars 2 - A Cute Racer Saddled With Technical And Balancing Problems
How does it still get a 5 (average), with a very negative review like that?

Re: Nintendo Download: 11th June (North America)
@justin233 Dang it. Now I want that.
Re: Nintendo Download: 11th June (North America)
Grabbing Project Warlock asap. Will wait on reviews for House Flipper. Oddly addictive game, but had performance issues on pc.
Re: Review: Project Warlock - A Fantastic Tribute To The Very Best '90s FPS Classics
Such a great game. Cant wait to double dip, as I've been meaning to give it another play.

Re: Random: Nintendo Switch Fans React To The PC Port Of Persona 4 Golden
Tbf, us PC folks have been begging for it, for far longer. Still, hope it comes to switch as well.

Re: Super Toy Cars 2 Brings New Handling, Cars And Tracks To Switch Next Week
@ArtiomNLS besides both having vehicles, I fail to see the comparison. Ones a racer, and ones a sport.
@article Sure hope this one is good. Never ceases to amaze me, how few decent MM style games there are these days. If there even is a few good ones.
Re: Feature: Best Nintendo Switch Golf Games
@Bearzilla823 Seeing as it's only $4 and I can cover most of that in gold coins, I'm gonna take the plunge. Thanks!

Re: Don't Worry eShop Users, You'll Still Receive "All 3 Titles" If You Buy The Borderlands Legendary Collection

Re: Feature: XCOM 2's Creative Director On The Challenge Of Bringing The Series To Switch
@nessisonett I came to it a year after release (after they patched in all dlc), but man, Vita version ran great then. Became my go to version.
Re: Feature: XCOM 2's Creative Director On The Challenge Of Bringing The Series To Switch
@Zuljaras Devs dont make those decisions. You want to look at the publisher to blame for that.
Re: Nintendo Download: 28th May (North America)
Bug Fables and Bioshock 2 for me.
Re: Random: In Japan, You Can Buy A Nintendo Wii For 50 Cents
I'd buy 3 ds for sure. 1 for nodding, one for legit use, and one as backup. Same for the Wii.
