Keep your Snake. I'll Pass.

More POWA

Whatever it is, how about optimizing for handheld this time around?

I hope this is true! If it's going to happen, it'll be announced at Blizzcon.

@neyoung8 "Bit of clickbaity article"

Ha ha, yeah.

NL: "Actually you pay $35 but when you THINK about it, it's like $5 a person!"

Somehow I don't think that's what most of us had in mind coming here.

Let me know once he's done it

Played the first and really enjoyed it, but there was a corrupt save or something that prevented me from viewing the summary breakdown at the end. I assume choices from the first game are supposed to carry over, so I'll probably have to play it again. TellTale, why so buggy?

A little more than an hour in, and it's my favorite game of the year. This kind of game just speaks to me.

I have no idea how this will convert to console, but HECK YES...this is an awesome announcement

I will rebuy both. Some of my earliest requests were getting these to Switch. And get Pyre over here too!

The Android experience for Galaxy phones is pretty garbage too. I get the impression there was a charter to get this game on as many platforms as possible, but corners were obviously cut to achieve this.

With God, all things are feasible

Let it be so

I'm hoping strong sales performance will convince Blizz to port Overwatch to Switch.

Blizzard, meet Panic Button. Panic Button, meet Blizzard...

Will probably throw my $$$ at it. It's Blizzard, it's Diablo, it's the Switch. For me, nothing more needs to said.

What is it with the UK and their Bandicoot?

@16bitdave "maybe it means you have to have an internet connection to play it?"

If that's the case, there is no way I'm signing up for that. Have to believe you can download these like games on the eshop.

@River3636 nope, and they never will

Very cool. I'll be honest, I stopped playing because I suck so much. However, I'll have to check this out.

I can maybe understand fewer big-name releases, given the fact we got Mario and Zelda in the same year. However, fewer releases in general? Nope. That actually makes zero sense to me.

Stardew Valley and Xenoblade Chronicles 2

It's not about choosing one or the other. The most successful games balance between a smart esports platform while remaining approachable to casuals. Discount the competitive scene all you want, but there's no question it injects your game with increased exposure, relevance, and money.

Game is alright. 5 chapters in, it's about a 6 out of 10 for me. Interesting world and combat are what mainly carry it for me. Cut-and-paste side-quests, merely ok story, and poor portable optimization really bring things down though.

Played this a bit on my phone before, and it's well done, but I feel like I'm already too invested in League to deep-dive into another moba.

Other than Smash and the online service. I don't think I'll be getting anything else on Switch this year. Maybe Octopath. Other than that, I think I'm good.

@R4z0rGr1nd3r "That's funny considering it was released 3 years before Destiny... Moron."

Google "shadowgun legends release date" and then get back to me.

And seriously..."Moron"? LOL. At least get educated before reverting to name calling. I guess the two don't go hand-in-hand though, am I right?

Gamers can be dirtbags

It's a quality Destiny clone, but I don't think I would prioritize this over Doom or Wolfenstein. Works fine for what it is on my phone.

Broken promises

Excited to revisit this.

God bless Panic Button

@Saego "Ehh, I rather play Hyrule or Fire Emblem Warriors."

As someone who's been holding out, I might actually dip into this one since it appears to be the real thing. Definitely a wait-and-see though.

@Heavyarms55 If you're not satisfied with the quintessential first-person shooters (Doom and Wolfenstein) it's tough to still say there isn't enough representation. That's kind of like saying there aren't enough platformers because you don't want to play as a plumber or gorilla. Sure, maybe that's an unfair comparison, but it sounds like the theme is more important to you than the genre.

Change the format however you want. If you have cool games to announce and meaningful footage to share, most of us should be happy. Key word being "should."

I'll plant a flag on my Rocket League car and call it good

Doesn't bother me. It's essentially the same model for our music (Spotify) and TV shows (Netflix), why not our video games too?

Won't be perfect out of the gate, but neither were the aforementioned services. As long as they continue to expand the catalog and justify the asking price, I have zero problems with this.

And while we are comparing to other platforms. Show me a movie that you've purchased outright and seamlessly transfered to multiple platforms. I mean, how many times have we all bought Star Wars? When Disney starts its streaming service that'll likely be the end of it.

My takeaway: more time to work on the backlog. Not a great takeaway from Nintendo's point of view I'm sure.

@Dang69 "Expected. Not 'will be.' That's a huge difference."

This. NL jumping the gun a bit.

Reggie being Reggie

Reggie painting a rosy picture, as he's paid to do.

From promised feature to "ongoing conversations"

I love Panic Button and all, but c'mon "no compromises" is overstating things quite a bit. Happy to hear we're getting the full game though.

This actually crossed my mind after the complete absence of major 3rd party support from Nintendo's E3. But seriously? Everyone is just going to go to the same shop?

It's stuff like this that makes me wish Nintendo would have released a powerhouse console for twice the current retail price. Heck, I'm pretty sure a lot of us would have still bought it. Or why not both?

So does Fire Emblem Warriors run better in handhold than Hyrule Warriors then? If so, that's pretty much all need to know to finalize my purchasing decision.

The biggest disappointment for me was the lack of a third party presence. I figured Switch sales were strong enough to merit more support. Where was Blizzard? What happened to Bethesda? Did Doom and Skyrim perform so poorly all we could get was a mobile game this time around?

@Dualmask Time to buy her own

This'll put a fork in Paladins for me.

I'm happy with the Doom we have on Switch. Will likely save this one for PC.

Yay, more games I didn't bother to download to my Android device

It'll be interesting if the Switch can provide a shot in the arm for these games (Paladins, Arena of Valor, etc.).

I would still prefer to see heavy-hitters like Overwatch make the jump, but if Blizzard decides it can't I suppose there's always Fortnite, which hasn't had issues moving to basically every available platform.

I'd be happy with a Fallout 3 remaster
