I read the scoring article. As if I am going to waste my precious time on a garbage 7/10, what do you think this is? All copies should obviously be buried like ET was.
Getting it simply for save backup. The NES games are unlikely to appeal, I think Nintendo has squeezed enough out of the 8bit library, time to move forward a little.
@JoeDiddley 2 would be enough for me. 3 is too complex a fighter for my small brain. However Capcom vs SNK 2 EO would be good, save me replacing my GCN version.
Cloud saves were integral to working with the Vita's expensive memory from my experience, so I am more than excited to have them in operation here.
I love the safety net provided by it and it may result in me buying an additional Switch once I am able to transfer all my progress, leaving the kids with their own.
Aside from the space taken up on storage, 15gb can be quite a significant chunk of your monthly download here in Australia. Especially if you are rural and only have access to limited GB satellite internet.
Sometimes an argument is multifaceted and not just somebody being too lazy to change SD cards.
@Heavyarms55 Agree, the Switch covers my gaming needs enough. However, I am likely to purchase an XB1X exclusively for Cyberpunk if it is as brilliant as it is hyped to be.
@Heavyarms55 I think for somebody like myself who is time-poor, a small quantity of high quality titles is preferable to being flooded with mediocre titles.
Definitely looking forward to this Grandia, though OctoTrav and Dead Cells are taking up most of my time...plus my son has just discovered FIFA, so that is a huge time sink for us.
@brandonbwii visual novels typically have nearly zero environmental interaction (or even the ability to move around), whereas this experience is told entirely through environmental interaction and exploration.
@C3Mush Axiom was brilliant, but it stumped me in a couple of spots but saw it to the end. I redownloaded it for another playthrough the day before Dead Cells came out...needless to say I haven't touched it yet.
Unfortunately I have moved on to what is IMO the far superior Dead Cells. Loving every minute of it, whereas Hollow Knight was a slog. Disappointing considering how long I waited for release. Anywho, most others seemed to love it.
@MH4 I am looking forward to cloud saves, so it will be a day one purchase for me.....their NES games can suck a big one though. Bump it up to SNES and then I will be excited...unless it is Excite Bike, or Double Dragon 2 or maybe....

Re: Valkyria Chronicles 4 - A Sublime Strategy Experience On Switch
Can't wait for the first game to arrive so I can play them in order.

Re: Talking Point: Do We Still Need Review Scores?
I feel as though high scores are given out like candy from a white van on this site though.
They are definitely a tough thing to regulate and be consistent with.
Re: First-Person Survival Horror Agony Will Torment Switch Later This Year
Looks like turd. Give me proper RE7 please.

Re: Victor Vran: Overkill Edition Is The Perfect Diablo III Appetiser On Switch
I hope D3 doesn't kill the sales too much for this title.
Re: Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate Hunts Down A Ninth Place Spot In The UK Charts

Re: Video: Upcoming Switch Racer V-Rally 4's Drifting Mode Will Test Your Skills To The Max
@bilboa It still bugs me that there are no analog triggers. Just doesn't make sense, especially when the Gamecube had such great triggers in 2001.
Re: Shovel Knight Is Getting Two DLC Packs, A Physical Edition And amiibo All On The Same Day
Seems like I am in the minority of people who played and loved this but have moved on to arguably better things.
Good on Yacht Club for the support, but I feel they have milked it a bit much for me.
I am ready to be flamed over this.

Is Dust already on the eshop? I am surprised I missed it.
Re: Saints Row: The Third Will Include All DLC On Switch
An hour of extra content each? I get that it's free, but hardly worth the effort.
Re: Switch-Exclusive Senran Kagura Reflexions Will "Deliver Exciting Sensations" This September
I hope this story has a happy ending
Re: Hollow Knight Godmaster DLC Is Now Available For Free, Game Also On Sale For The First Time
@MajorasLapdog not obvious. They are just part of the game. You stumble upon them like any other event really
Re: Hollow Knight Godmaster DLC Is Now Available For Free, Game Also On Sale For The First Time
@Alber-san Have to disagree. I was glued to Dead Cells but struggled to slog through the borefest of Hollow Knight.

These videos...are mech-ing me thirsty!
Re: Random: Nintendo Streams PS4 Pro Ads During FIFA 19 Gamescom Demo

Re: Rumour: Dark Souls II Now In Development For Nintendo Switch
@justin233 Twin Snakes would do me. A port of MGSV collection would be nice.
Re: Random: Nintendo Streams PS4 Pro Ads During FIFA 19 Gamescom Demo
Disclaimer: I own and love FIFA18 on Switch, so was hoping for something prettier this year.
Re: Random: Nintendo Streams PS4 Pro Ads During FIFA 19 Gamescom Demo
Is that screenshot from the eagerly awaited GameBoy Colour port?
Re: Switch Physical Game Sales Increase As Octopath Traveler Crowned July's Best-Selling Game
I was one of these Octo sales. 6hrs in, loving every second.
Re: Gone Home Release For Switch Delayed Until Next Month
@wazlon go in as blind and open minded as possible. The game is deeper than most realise or give it credit for imho.
Re: Gone Home Release For Switch Delayed Until Next Month
They had to tweak the combat apparently
Re: Video: DAEMON X MACHINA's Gamescom Teaser Will Mech Your Dreams Come True
@ThanosReXXX Absolutely. If I am to be honest though, the game would have to be pretty broken for me not to buy. Super stoked for this one.
Re: Video: DAEMON X MACHINA's Gamescom Teaser Will Mech Your Dreams Come True
@ThanosReXXX Thank you so much. Really appreciated.
Re: Football Manager 2019 Scores A Release On Nintendo Switch
Wow, these comments feel like a Kotaku thread.
Re: Kickstarter Campaign For RPG Action-Adventure Sikanda Goes Live
Burner by KS too many times. All the best for the Devs, but I wouldn't hold out hope.
Re: Diablo III Producer Explains Why Blizzard Wanted The Game On Switch
Excited about this, but would love the Torchlight series.
Re: Video: DAEMON X MACHINA's Gamescom Teaser Will Mech Your Dreams Come True
Love the aesthetic, the concept and the soundtrack. I am concerned about the gameplay, but this is my most anticipated Switch title currently.
Re: HD Remaster Of Grandia And Dreamcast Sequel Revealed For Nintendo Switch
@NinjaWaddleDee Great like Beetlejuice or great like Last Starfighter?

Re: Publishers Are Refusing To Sign Velocity 2X Sequel, Dev Asks For Switch Players' Support
Not a fan of the begging, but how do so many trash titles hit the eshop with no worries but these guys are struggling with a supposedly great title?
I am clearly missing something.
Re: The Critically Acclaimed Gone Home Is Headed To Nintendo Switch Next Week
@brandonbwii visual novels typically have nearly zero environmental interaction (or even the ability to move around), whereas this experience is told entirely through environmental interaction and exploration.
Re: The Critically Acclaimed Gone Home Is Headed To Nintendo Switch Next Week
@Pineapple_Mohawk this isn't a visual novel. You physically walk around and interact with a home.
Re: The Critically Acclaimed Gone Home Is Headed To Nintendo Switch Next Week
I feel like I am one of the few people who loved this heartbreaking experience. When you delve into exactly what happened, it is a gut punch.

Re: Team Cherry Changes Title Of Final Hollow Knight Content Pack Due To Name Clash
@C3Mush Axiom was brilliant, but it stumped me in a couple of spots but saw it to the end. I redownloaded it for another playthrough the day before Dead Cells came out...needless to say I haven't touched it yet.
Re: Team Cherry Changes Title Of Final Hollow Knight Content Pack Due To Name Clash
@Fake-E-Lee Completely agree. Nothing has gripped me like Dead Cells in years.
Re: Team Cherry Changes Title Of Final Hollow Knight Content Pack Due To Name Clash
@sandman89 got bad ending of Hollow Knight at 27hrs, have since deleted it from SD card with no intention of playing again.
My 6hrs or so in Dead Cells have been thrillingly addictive so far.
Re: Team Cherry Changes Title Of Final Hollow Knight Content Pack Due To Name Clash
Unfortunately I have moved on to what is IMO the far superior Dead Cells. Loving every minute of it, whereas Hollow Knight was a slog. Disappointing considering how long I waited for release. Anywho, most others seemed to love it.
Re: Nintendo Has Sold Over 700 Million Video Game Consoles To Date
@wazlon I am currently hunting for a reasonably priced micro. If you still have it, hold on to it.
Re: Nintendo Has Sold Over 700 Million Video Game Consoles To Date
NES, SNES, N64, Wii, Switch, GBA SP, DS, New 3DS, New 2DS...I helped by a couple. Thought it was more though.
We will never know how history would have favoured Ninty had they chosen cd over cartridge back on the N64 though.
Re: Nintendo Confirms Switch Online Service Will Launch In Second Half Of September

Re: SEGA's Latest Financial Report Reveals Slump In Sales
@Dezzy I think all of their titles (aside from Mania) are literally selling hundreds of copies. Hence the problem.
