Realness

Really hoping that Jet Lancer is good. I like what I see, but a solid review will sway me into a purchase

The performance issues just took my finger off the insta-buy button. I hope they correct this. I’ve been dying for this to be on Switch. I have the other two systems, so I could easily play a better version. But the game “feels” like it belongs on the Switch. Fingers crossed for a patch to correct this.

Saw the trailer for this yesterday on the eshop. I’m about 95% sold. All I need is a couple good reviews and I’ll do it. I like what it’s going for

Wave Race and 1080 all day. With a dash of F-Zero for good measure

Really wish it were 2, Takedown or Revenge instead. Paradise was a deviation from the established formula that ruined the series for me. That formula being:
1: pick a place
2: pick a race
3: pick a car
4: GO!!
Simple direct arcade goodness. Sorry, gotta pass on this one.

Of all the games listed, Akane deserves a shot from anyone even vaguely interested. Surprisingly addictive and a good little blast of fun, that you can revisit from time to time. After seeing this article, I just gave my friend a heads up text to stop messing around and just buy the damn thing.

Well, turn off that steering assist antenna I see you’ve got there and maybe you guys aren’t as good as you think. I refuse to accept these findings as fact. I’ll take you all on!
Love, Los Angeles

So on May 12th, it seems as though I’ll be Pod Racing. Pumped! I LOVED this game back in the day. It has been sorely missed. Day 1.

Twintelle. Please Gaming Gods... Twintelle

Reminds me of Spider-Man

@Indielink That is worth noting, thank you. I’ll be picking this up then.

For the love of God, please be Twintelle!!!

Cool, put my Japanese account to use. I’ve been in the fence about this. I hope it’s good

Just went to the website to get a look and all it took was 2 seconds. Sold!!! But... I want this bad boy on Switch. Dare I make demands? I do.

As a multi console owner and a HUGE Bayonetta fan, my girl deserves 4k 60fps. Now if Bayonetta only comes to Switch, I’m ok with that. I’ll just play it there. But, if ever I was given a choice... I chose to see that along side the new DMC.

No Miis = no me. I miss using my Mii. There’s like, some weird magic lost, by not seeing my Mii on screen.

As someone who’s not a fan of soccer (I find it tedious) that was fairly exciting to watch. The Shaolin Soccer vibe is actually making me consider it

I have the Switch, a Pro and a Scorpio. For me, it depends on the game. A game like the Witcher, I would NEVER buy for Switch. That’s my Scorpio all day. Now, I originally bought FighterZ for My Pro and thought ‘If they did a good enough port for Switch, this would be a perfect game for it.’ As it turned out, they excellent job on it. So I bought the Switch port too. I bought all the dlc for the Switch version and my PS4 copy has since gotten dusty. I guess I have to feel like I’m not missing out on whatever feature the Switch can’t accommodate. The three rank like this for me: Graphics/3rd party/1st party = Scorpio. Exclusives = Pro. 1st party/portability/indie = Switch

I like everything about this game except the character itself. Not feeling it. I may look past it and give it a shot. We’ll see

Excitement level 1/10. Time to put a dent in the old backlog

Switch, Pro and Scorpio owner here. Love them all equally, for different reasons. Each one has their pluses and minuses. I treat all three as one system. So my gaming is based squarely around my mood.

Phendrana Drifts: Metroid Prime

@SwitchForce Jesus, you took that really far didn’t you. I’m not even going to pick apart your wildly presumptuous, condescending and pretentious reply. I admitted to being irrational. Did you not see that part? If I’m going to be honest, the Lite scares me. Is Nintendo slowly doing away with home consoles? That’s a sad and scary thought. I’ve been playing on Nintendo consoles since they began and I feel like the Lite is the beginning of the end. I’m scared that if it takes off, that’s a wrap for what I love most. And, I added humor at the end of my previous statement to make light of my irrational fear.

I don’t know why, but I’m hoping the Lite bombs. Actually, that’s not true. I do know why. I wanted a beefed up Switch for myself. Not a featureless, stripped down one. If they were selling a Pro version, accompanied by the Lite, I’d be thrilled and have nothing but glowing things to say. Alas, such is not the case. So... I’m irrationally miffed. Quite so in fact. Humph!

Zelda for sure. Already paid in full and picking it up physical tonight. Maybe the Goose game, depending on reviews and I REALLY want to do Grid. Something is stopping me. I don’t know what it is, but I can’t seem to pull the trigger on Grid.

Good for you sir. Deliberately helping others, when you are under no obligation to do so, speaks volumes of your character. And all of it good. Right on.

I’ll give it a go. If it stinks, the only thing I wasted, was my time.

@GrailUK That just makes it better. Wish I had known. Next time, I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt. Leave a little wiggle room for humor.

@GrailUK Fifth Elephant? Who, Dumbo?

In other/more interesting - racing news, Asphalt is coming Oct 9th.

@Ichiyama Terminator. Far more violent and Arnold was legitimately scary in that movie. When he cleared out that police station... man. Truth be told though, some of the special effects didn’t age well. Like, when he’s looking at his jacked up face in the mirror. Not very convincing

Edit: oh yeah, NA wins this one with Europe in a close 2nd

@adh56 Sure did. And it was a game changer. Such memories...

A messaging system and themes are my only concern. I understand folders. I don’t need them. I currently like to see all my games laid out alphabetically.

Nah... the isolation of vr is what makes it completely different from playing on a tv. This is basically putting a stupid looking Doc Brown rig on your head to play on a tv, without playing on a tv. Yeah, no. Pass.

@Darlinfan Read my post under you. I’m aware. There should be an option for full/wide screen. Cater to as many people as possible to help pull the vertical shooter genre out of the “niche” category. I’d take Einhander over any of what being offered these days.

To all those responding to my complaint: I’m aware of all the realities of the vertical shooter genre, that you were all kind enough to lay bare before me. Although, that doesn’t mean I have to like it. Because I don’t. BUT, you guys were really nice about it so, thanks for not destroying me. Sincerely.

Ugh... full screen please. Wasting my 75” screen real estate on useless, static art. Pass.

Will be watching the reviews for this one like a hawk. If it reviews well, I’m in.

I can’t believe it! Stunt Race FX!!!!

Star Fox
Super Metroid
Good stuff. Finally

No way. Playing Astral Chain on a 75” is the only way for me. It does play well in handheld mode, but it’s not the same thing. At all. Same goes for BotW. It’s a big screen experience

Astral Chain physical for me. Can’t believe I’ll have that tonight. It’s felt like forever for this!

Invisigun looks interesting, will wait for reviews. Otherwise, I’m just running out the clock until Astral Chain.

Looking forward to a review on this from NL. I am GREATLY interested in this one.

It’s a good thing I need my phone, otherwise I would’ve smashed it. That music is atrocious!

@Heavyarms55 in case you missed it, Forza 7 is actually an uproarious romantic comedy. Knees will be slapped.

I have the other two systems, so I’m getting this no matter where it shows up. But truthfully, I want this for my Switch. Fingers crossed

@baller98 Yes, I have it on my PS4. Asphalt looks a little bit like Burnout. Which I miss. DEARLY. I think I just need a Burnout fix to go. Good suggestion though.

So much nope on display here.

I refuse to watch the video. This media black out thing, I’m putting myself through for this game is KILLING me. Come out already!

Nothing this week. Looks like my next one is Astral Chain. I’m impatiently waiting for Asphalt. I desperately need a release date for that game. Really want a good arcade racer for my Switch.

The 30 second levels bothers me. I’m not completely turned off, but it’s not an insta-buy. I’m gonna work through a couple of games on my backlog and revisit this. On the old wishlist ya go!
