I got Splatoon on a whim and I am so glad I did and Splatoon 2 all I can say is what a phenomenal surprise such a great game. I have not tried out Paladins yet and I don't think I will it just don't grab my attention, Fortnite on the other hand I have tried and I tried to like it but I don't I deleted it from my system it just feels like a mobile game that is mediocre at best .
This Switch console was created for Japan the fact it is also selling good around the world is just another plus. The mobile gaming I dont get at all, I have all but quit playing and downloading games on my phone I hate touch screen game controls and pay to win and pay to play .
I would love these if they would have added the normal functions as they are a D-Pad is not worth handicapping the controller that much, that is sacrificing to much for a built in D-Pad .
As much as I do like the simplicity of the Switch UI and eshop it definitely needs updated at this point themes, folders, user reviews on games etc., something would be great.
@Whalehome you should give Wizard of Legend a try I found it to be much better than Enter the Gungeon. Its a personal preference they are both great but I like Wizard of Legend more, its great if you have someone to play with the multiplayer is really fun you can easily lose a few hours playing.
Where I live you just hope you can get a poster or keychain before the Gamestop employee's take them all, Nintendo's promotional stuff is like finding a unicorn in the wild here .
@Garo, I completely agree the 3DS is my preferred way to play these types of games the stereoscopic 3D effect looks fantastic on the 8bit 16bit style platformers. I think its a shame and missed opportunity we never got any Nintendo classics past Kirby and Kid Icarus as well those two titles look amazing in 3D. I wanted to play Treasurenauts but only if it comes to my 3DS so its a pass for me there are way to many titles like this on Switch now atleast ten new ones a week there are games on Switch that I've been taking a pass on just because there are so many now its become crowded itself quickly and a person only has so much time to play games unfortunately. The Chicken Wiggle title looks fun but I've always thought the name hurt that title more than anything else thats not a good title for the game,it sounds like a game for a small child .
I've been waiting for this to come to Switch cannot wait to dive in, I love the fact that Dragon Ball Z is gonna be on a portable system, man Switch is just a fantastic system.
I think its an awesome idea, Link could be mute I think his silence is a must, it would also add to the overall suspense if Link was deaf but in whatever way I agree Link should be mute .
I think the art design and graphic style is fantastic I'm hoping the gameplay and controls deliver. I've been keeping track of this since E3 hoping for the best .
I might have to get this I really liked the first game and I skipped this on the Wii U because of price and it had no online play to my knowledge on the Wii U .
I gotta quit reading articles on these titles cause it's making waiting for them to release stressful I've been playing Pokemon Go more lately and after all the newer updates Pokemon Go is a much much better game my friend code is 0265 4611 1539 if anyone wants to add me , I'm needing to add some more friends to trade gifts with so feel free to add me .
The target is me as a collector of anything Nintendo and a huge Star Fox fan., I had no interest in this game till they announced the Star Fox set which will be the only ship I will buy I'm am glad you can just buy the content and that you dont have to buy the toys.
@SmaggTheSmug, I agree with you on the Star Wars. People like to throw the term fanboys up but honestly who are these and other anthology films like Potter and the Marvel movies made for and aimed at ?, Well lets see my guess would be the fans or fanboys, the fans are the ones that are gonna go stand in line and pay to see it atleast I think thats how it works ., LoL
Is this the comment section for Star Wars or VSR ? The reviewer of this should know you can't mention Star Wars anymore, not after what Disney has done to the iconic legend characters like Han, Admiral Ackbar, and Luke and then had the nerve to do a young Han Solo movie, you can't replace Harrison Ford's iconic role with a new actor and expect it to go over well with the fan base . We had a young Han Solo in 4, 5, and 6. A big part of Star Wars appeal is and was the original cast continually returning to play the part., had to add my two cents. LoL..
I really glad to read this review this game kept pulling my attention to it and I continued to tell myself this game looks fantastic but it is to cheap to be any good for the type of game it is so I just browsed on by. I can say after reading this review I'm sold, I'm going to download it now . I should've known there was a reason it kept pulling in my attention it really is great to hear it is as fun as it looks .
I hope they added a story mode like SE from Brawl and I would love to see the boss character from Brawl return I thought the Wii U Smash was lacking for not having the story mode which was a blast to play with a second player and the hand was boring as the final boss compared to the final boss from Brawl. If the final boss from Brawl is a playable character in Ultimate that would be amazing, I can't remember his name but I remember he was awesome to fight .
This game is better than a 5 come on I mean this site gave Just Shapes and Beats a 9 and I wish I would have not paid 20 bucks for that title its not fun at all and its definitely not a 9 out of 10 . This game is 5 bucks and is atleast fun to play .
@Charmander987, I recommend both titles on the 3DS if you like the stereoscopic 3D, as the preferred way to play, they make great use of the 3D effect.
@Charmander987, If you had have a 3DS or Wii U it is hard to think that you would not have heard of Mutant Mudds, especially if you had or have a 3DS. In any case they are a couple of great titles and if you like platformers and retro 8bit or 16bit graphics you'll find a lot to like , and to answer the question who still says lol? , I think you meant who still types or texts lol this is the comment section for the article above it, anyways I still type, text and say it at times ., LoL..
@Pichuka97, You should watch the show there are some really great episodes not every episode is a winner but the good ones are really good and definitely worth a watch . I was hoping this game would turn out better than the last game which I thought was horrible, so a pass for me there are way to many excellent games to play on Switch to waste time on this . It is a shame though I really like the show it deserves a great game, maybe someday.?
I think Metroid if done right would be an amazing movie but the catch is the done right part which I don't think it would be and fan expectations would be sky high and they should be, this is a beloved gaming series countless gamers have grown up with.
I've played it on my phone , it's a fun game but I hated the touch screen controls so this could be a much better option to play the game if the controls are solid and there are no microtransactions if thats the case I'd dive back in for ten bucks it is a fun pick up and play .
I tend to buy more and more indies these days, personally I've grown bored of the photo realistic games that all look and play the same the Switch has become my go to for gaming and it is because of all the indie titles Nintendo has embraced with their newest system and the great thing is the Switch is the perfect platform for them it's a match made in heaven.
I would love to get one just to display in our gaming room , I love the gold which is signature Nintendo and the box is simply beautiful , such a great collector piece. I love that Nintendo does this. I am looking forward to the N64 mini classic so many great memories with that system.
@Lord ,True about the early haters most of it I don't get. I can understand wanting the proper next entry but these look fantastic to me and I like the connectivity with Pokemon Go which it seems to me these are aimed at that millions of people whose first Pokemon game experience was and is with playing Pokemon Go, in that retrospect these seem like a brilliant idea to me and I'm sure Nintendo has a surprise or two they have not announced yet concerning Lets Go . With what I've seen so far I'm excited for November can't wait to finally get some more and better use of my Pokemon Go Mons.
I really like the animations, graphics, art style and overall design theme I hope this turned out as good as it looks to be. I was hoping for a longer campaign though, 15 hours really .
I liked this game on Wii U, but for me the Nintendo Switch version is the superior version the controls are much better implemented and the graphics are sharper.
Looking forward to adding these to my amiibo collection I can't wait to see the Pokemon Trainer and Snake amiibo I also wonder if we will get the new Zelda and Link versions? I certainly hope so..
I like the game but it has some issues, not game breaking but it could be a much much better game. The color palette is off putting after awhile and you can adjust it thankfully but it only helps a little the controls are another problem they need to be tuned, again not horrible but not tight either my biggest complaint is the game is not balanced well at all, some levels are overly easy and some are brutally hard in no specific order. I would recommend this game but cautiously its not for everyone I would definitely try the demo first.
Well I'd say a BROWSER, NETFLIX AND YOUTUBE would be a fantastic surprise as well as some themes , my guess is they are adding Spotpass to Switch though I have to admit at first I was upset that Switch did not have a browser at launch and to my surprise I really don't think my Switch needs a browser it has a fantastic lineup of games with more and more on the way I have fallen for the minimalist interface it just functions so amazing I now love the fact that Switch is a gaming console first and foremost with all that said I will gladly pay 20 bucks for the Big Ns service I mean for me its worth that for the classic games alone .
I agree with him and I am very glad to hear this is Nintendo and his outlook on what a game should be. I play games cause I want to relax and get pulled in by the game to have fun .
My is fine and I've even dropped it a couple of times though I do have a protective case on it when it's not in the dock. I do play my Switch in dock mode more than I play in handheld mode.
What Nintendo no love at all for the 3DS XL ?, Nintendo keeps pushing these 2DS models with some nice variations but I would like a new 3DS XL variation as someone who still enjoys playing games in 3D . I really hope Nintendo is not done with the stereoscopic 3D but all signs point to the exit for the 3DS and stereoscopic 3D.
I would love to see the 3DS get a proper successor as one who love the stereoscopic 3D effect it would stink if Nintendo just let it go, there are so many games I play on my Switch that I think man this would be amazing in 3D. I definitely hope we get another dedicated handheld 3D machine from Nintendo.. Bring it on Nintendo .
Depending on how they handle it I think it could be very successful , look at the endless amount of games, movies and books on the Google store now. Personally I like them on my smart phone but I wouldn't rule them out .
Looks like it will either be really good or not good at all I can't tell yet, I am hoping its great I love these types of games. Some of the models in the clip looked spot on and some look less than spectacular to me and some of the voice work sounds good some not so much, it is still a work in progress so I am hoping for the best I am one of the ones that loved the 3DS Castlevania title Mirror of Fate and the new pre game Blood Moon seemed to be very well received so that gives me hope.
