Would have loved a super mario galaxy 1 and 2 port but actually plugged in my old wii again to tv and planning to take a trip to cex to swap swbf2 and Titanfall 2 (plus 2 quid) to pick them up. We keep talking about wii u ports but why there is not a version of Wii sports for switch blows my mind. The first thing I did when I put the Wii back on was to put on Wii fit plus and get some batteries back in the board. My daughter and mrs loved it straight away. Other than Mario kart, no other gaming series appeals to non-gamers and a whole new demographic like Wii sports/sports resort/fit plus.
@Platinumhobo Just an option, I actually find gyro aiming to be one of the best features on the switch. I love it in splatoon and might be reason why I buy wolfenstein 2 on switch rather than dirt cheap on ps4
I was disappointed to be honest, was the game I was looking forward to most this year from Nintendo but demo killed the buzz. No gyro aiming and hd rumble from an exclusive is really poor effort. Shooting and movement had no feel to it, seems to be a loot based game without a fun loop. I hope they delay this and make some changes
Haven't played in a while and went back to this, online isn't dead but it's so noticeable the impact paid online and maybe smash has had!! Could do with special tournament weekends like splatfest to get the community online at same time. Looking for a doubles partner to unlock shy guy and can't find one 🙄
@Lizuka fair play, you want that but really I couldn't be bothered!! Why would you really want to play for well over an hour for one match in a competitive multiplayer game?! There are lots of things wrong with aces (despite it being a guilty pleasure of mine), this really isn't one for me
Personally think the ending gets a lot of unnecessary grief. Play this game as genuinely how you would approach human relationships/interactions, not how you would to get the best outcome in a game. Investigate everything and enjoy the aesthetic. If you like experiences that are light on gameplay mechanics but challenge how people think/feel, then give this a bash. The Eta James track at the end is the best piece of music in a game, ever!!
On preorder, can't wait till I can get to the shop on Saturday to pick up! Never played smash before but can't wait to play this with mates after a couple of beers!! Looks bloody magic
This game is still my guilty pleasure! Yes it isnt blessed with tons of single player content, online matchmaking isn't always the best but when you do have a close game, it's the best sports multiplayer out there for me!
Based on how many hours I played the original phone version of civ 1 (for more hours than I care to admit, on deity every civilisation), I'm actually scared to buy this!! Still got LA Noir and hollow knight to finish and Pre ordered smash but after those, this is my next switch purchase!!
Great read, I'm pretty good at not buying shed loads of games brand new but I struggle to resist a real bargain. Actually, im going back to old games ive never played like red dead. I waited till this year to pick up a switch and even if it was my only console, I would have struggled to play all the games I want to. Christ I played Zelda for 3 months lol!! There are some folks in a community who will smash through all the content you can give them and want more. Look at destiny 1/2, folk moan that there's not enough after playing the same game for 100s of hours.
@BanjoPickles I genuinely thought the writing and humour were better. Great game as well as feeling like an episode of South park. Worth checking which region your buying in and whether there are different versions of censorship (eu one on my ps4 copy with fbw had scenes cut). I might get the switch version in a sale from a non eu region one day just to check them out!!
I've just shown my 4 yr old daughter this and her mind is blown!!!!! I can see this getting added to her Xmas wish list. Any idea whether you can coop in this game?
If you've never played it and are a fan of the show, it really is a must (though maybe not day one at that price). I got it free with FBW ON ps4 and for me, it truly outshines the later game. Can tell the shows writers are gamers.
Only ever played one Zelda, BOTW and it was magnificent. Just finished this week, it's structure and nearly all design choices were great. Would love to give an older Zelda a go to see the difference (okami is on my radar). Would love to see another Zelda game in a couple of years using the same engine.
I quite enjoyed the demo but in the absence of a tutorial, I'm struggling with medium difficulty monster. Any recommendations for a good info resource so I can see if I can get better? Thinking on buying this despite a ridiculous number of games I've got to play on ps4 and switch but want to make sure it clicks for me in the demo before I buy.
£3.50 with gold coins, Its got to be bought! Everyone here probs knows but I just found this week that you can register your physical sales for gold coins!! Think this is a nice touch.
I bought this on ps as I was annoyed at delay but I still want a solaire amiibo!!! Praise and enjoy for those who have never played, I had not played the original, played bloodborne and DS3 before the remaster. I've just rung the second bell and am loving it. I like it more than DS3 but bloodborne is my fave, maybe as it was my first souls game.
@Agramonte hey, can I be dumb and ask which app you use for that set up? It looks brilliant by the way!! I've got persona 5 to play and can't see the mrs being happy to give up the tv for 100 hrs!
Sorry, I've just seen you've posted that to someone else, cheers for the info 👍
Any clues yet if the network test will be an open beta yet? For me portability >resolution but fps in challenging areas might make me pick ps4 rather than switch. Waiting for a beta to help me decide.

Re: Praise The Sun! Dark Souls: Remastered On Switch Has A Confirmed Release Date
I bought this on ps as I was annoyed at delay but I still want a solaire amiibo!!! Praise and enjoy for those who have never played, I had not played the original, played bloodborne and DS3 before the remaster. I've just rung the second bell and am loving it. I like it more than DS3 but bloodborne is my fave, maybe as it was my first souls game.
