They should've just added the Return to Arkham set, then take more time to tune Knight and sell it separately. I have the Ezio Trilogy for Switch, and Revelations looks REALLY bad.

Well it's not like the second game was a bastion of good writing anyway. The structure of events was so disjointed and felt very rushed. Ultimately a bittersweet experience. The first game is superior despite some of its more basic features. In fact, I would call it a masterpiece of sorts.

I don't think it's too much of a strain to bring some of the classics to the handheld device. WaW and Blops 1 for instance would be very nice in a pack, especially since their stories are connected. Just saying.

I just remember playing Nightfire with my friends. That thing was.. well, lit.

@FishyS I'd recommend the Ezio Collection, it has the most connected story and the most charisma in the series. I'm pretty sure you will enjoy it.

So what is canon? The anime or the game?

I don't have anything against it. Only, I still haven't finished Three Hopes, so this will be a long time in coming for purchase.

Definitely looks different, and the fact that it has multiple endings means replayability. It's new concepts like these that push the envelope in the industry, making unique and fresh experiences. Since this is inspired by Yoko Taro's work, I'd expect to see a great mix of the morbid and the humorous. It seems there is also this component again of godhood and servitude..

I kinda miss the old days when all the fighters were unlockable in the game, no extra cost.

I want to start Three Hopes, but I'm still playing Three Houses, trying to finish up another playthrough. I'm also playing Samurai Warriors 5 and.. we'll see where things go from there.

Not particularly. Although I can see why people would want Yakuza games on Switch. Basically, I can respect the man's vision for the franchise, but I can't say I agree with his logic. But he can definitely do what he wants to do. Plenty of other great games on Switch. I wouldn't shed tears over missed opportunities here.

It actually looks fun; I'll keep it in mind.

@Jamessmooth After having played LiS 2 I can say that the first season is definitely much better, and with BtS the story of Max, Chloe, and Rachel is fleshed out even more and brought full circle to a satisfying but bitter/sweet conclusion. If you're looking for a quality narrative that has weight and lasting meaning, I'd stick with those. Not that LiS 2 is incomplete necessarily or doesn't have weight to its story, it's just that it's not done near as well, and the characters are not as iconic. As for True Colors, I have not played it, so I can't give too much comment on it, but from what I've heard from players, it's a mixed bag of good and bad.

Ironic that this minority demographic discourages developers from providing for their target market by shaming them into capitulation, when these same Twitter folk (who don't represent everyone), no doubt influenced by and products of woke western culture, seem to be completely unfazed by all the other types of graphic violent content currently on the market. I don't see much campaigning against that.. but for some reason it's their mission to quash these already niche indie titles.

Hypocrisy aside, to me, it's the same as forcing your beliefs onto someone else. Why can't we have games for people of all persuasions and just live and let live? There's no reason to shut down expression of art just because you personally have a problem with it. But for the sake of argument, if we were going to re-evaluate our morals in entertainment, we might want to start looking at depictions of graphic violence first. You know, like dismembering people with garden tools in 4K. Seems more precedential somehow.

That said, I think we all deserve to game the way we want to game. Delaying/cancelling the title just gives these people more clout, while alienating and disappointing those who are actually looking forward to it. The illustration above perfectly shows the problem.

A port of Red Dead Redemption would've been nice.

Can't tell if this is good or bad for Lara Croft, but at least it will provide the series a chance for a fresh start. Hopefully one that returns to the roots.

Had my eye on it, but unfortunately, I haven't played any Neptunia games, and there are only four SK girls from what I understand. Would rather see a full SK release on Switch.

Gamepass on Switch? With Call of Duty? That's like putting Skittles on salad..

Haven't played since Gold. Need to see more of it first before passing judgment. Not really sold on the starter Pokemon.

@RasandeRose I think that's the crux of the matter - purchasing a new platform that provides little more than oversaturation of content, especially for a market already carved out by Nintendo to begin with. As an invested Switch user, what is my incentive to drop $400 dollars minimum when I could use that money for future Switch titles and merch? Makes little sense.

Looks like something I'd be interested in. Still need to grind through Samurai Warriors 5 first and finish another run on Three Houses, but..

@Arawn93 I think the combat in the older AC games is more contextual. You could dodge enemies, parry, circle-around, grab them, disarm them, etc. And enemies aren't spongie either.

@Gwynbleidd Well, this is handheld, that's one of the main draws. You can take this anywhere too. I don't really like how only one of the games are on the cart, but I don't think they could fit them all anyway. It is what it is. As a diehard fan of AC who has walked away from Sony and basically Microsoft now, this is an easy buy for me.

WaW and Black Ops 1 to Switch would be nice.

I'd rather have Asylum, City, and Origins than Knight, but I can't imagine they could get all this on cartridge.

The only thing I'm disappointed with is that there aren't more SK girls. Seems very bare-boned.

Hmm. I would say Return to Arkham with Origins as a bonus, or Lara Croft Legend series. I'd rather see that than the Survivor series.

@Donutman Honestly, I don't think there is much value in the series after the Rebel Collection. They stopped any semblance of long-term narrative with characters after the Kenway games. All that will soon be on the Switch is pretty much all there should be, sad to say. Maybe they could eventually port AC1 digitally though..

@Yomerodes Thank you for explaining that.

I don't understand. Why not a full physical release?

@TheFrenchiestFry Don't strain yourself, I'm just poking fun.

Lies from the pit of hell.

Nintendo to Sony and Microsoft: BOW BEFORE ME..!!

They declined Kanye but worked with Brie Larson, lol? Sometimes Nintendo is just plain weird.

Well, if you're adding Super Baby Vegeta and SSjin 4 Gogeta then you might as well include Super 17 and Omega. I could also see Nova and Eis being good additions.

@RandomAfricanGamer

"Just looking up the name of the movie, here’s the synopsis: “Ip Man and his son encounter racial discrimination after traveling to the United States to seek a better life."

Did you actually see the movie yourself, or did you just read the synopsis to form an opinion?

"Yeah. It seems like that was the premise of the movie.
When I look at the Wikipedia page, it says that it takes place in 1964. It was set during the civil rights era. Having white men be hateful in that movie is historically accurate, so your criticism is a little strange."

True, it is around a time where racism was more prevalent than today, and it is one of the sources of Ip Man's grievance, but what the movie failed to recognize was that not every white person was a racist then either. Ever heard of the hippie movement? The Jesus movement? What about the fact that military men, even for that time, were generally less racist because they routinely work with and train foreigners?

The movie utterly fails to address these exceptions and paints all whites as unhinged, blood curdling racists. It was obviously a political hit-piece against America, no doubt incited by the Sino-US trade wars of late.

Hey, remember when Ip Man 4 released in America and it wasn't censored despite portraying nearly every white male as a hateful racist? Yeah, me too.

@status-204 That's not quite true. They left Holland because the libertarian society was having an adverse effect on their christian puritan morals, and they feared the children were growing into licentiousness rather than holiness. This prompted a decision to charter course for the Americas. But history lesson's over.

It's good to see that Nintendo devs are remaining true to their work. The simple fact is, when you cater to a vocal woke minority (who do not represent the West by any conceivable stretch) instead of the mass of your target player base, you will undoubtedly suffer loss of sales. And here in the West outrage culture is never satisfied with what you "accomplish" for their sake. There is always more char to be had.

So I commend Mr. Hosoi for his fortitude and vision for free artistic expression. May it be met with increased success.

Hopefully they focus on the ideologies of all the factions and their inner workings. I'd love to see them get into the Instruments as well, if they choose to go that route. Parkour also must play a central role in the action and cinematography, but that kinda goes without saying. I hope this ends up being a decent addition to the AC universe, but I have serious doubts after the Assassin's Creed movie. We'll just have to wait and see.

Horrific news if true. I really was looking forward to playing this on Switch. Arrggh!! 😣

Dishonored series, Mass Effect Trilogy Remastered, and Cyberpunk 2077.

Good, because I'm still waiting for those Senran Kagura games to be ported over.

Would love to have Mass Effect for the Switch, but, it kinda sounds too good to be true. Let's just wait and see.
