I can't afford the DLC, but it's always nice seeing new content coming to the game. Hope they introduce more than The Hero (new modes, minigames, or something), for people who doesn't have the DLC to enjoy.
@commentlife Came to say this. People sometimes can't even wait for some days to see if the memo is made official or if it was real in the first place.
@Jeronan Guys, I never said it wasn't a real problem. My own left Joy-Con is drifting. I just said that in the past some people had problems with their consoles, and that never stop them from buying. This is the same case, we have this drifting problem, IS REAL, but that won't stop people from buying if they have a way to fix it (sending to Nintendo or fixing themselves).
@Ralizah I know that, believe me, our left Joy-Con started Tokyo Drift(ing) a few months ago, and we can't even send it to Nintendo or try to fix it ourselves as we don't have the money or the tools to do it, but that doesn't mean other people can't do it, and those people are the ones who will be buying on launch day surely. As for the rest, they can always wait a few months or keep playing their OG Switch till Nintendo decides to address the situation.
And this wasn't a problem with all the other handheld consoles? People always have problems with their sticks, triggers and the likes, even the screens, and that hasn't stopped them from buying a new handheld, so I don't think this is any different. I guess you can always wait a few months to see if they solved the problems anyway.
That's a lot of money for a card. Now we just sit and wait for the card to reappear online in couple of days (yeah, some people are just that dumb to try and resell what they stole the next day).
Yeah it'll keep selling, but without new games those numbers won't be too high. And in the future with the Switch Lite on the market there will be more people gravitating towards it than to the 3DS family.
I really like the design. And is perfect for homes with more than 1 person, as each one can have their own Switch (100$ less), and just use the dock that came with the original one to play on TV together. I don't need a kid to have an excuse to get one, I'll get it for me.
I could see myself playing a lot with this version. I really loved playing with my 2DS, so maybe I'll try to get one in the future for myself for the reduced price and weight and leave the original Switch on the TV for the family game nights and for those times I want to play on the big screen with the Pro Controller.
I've never liked that rewinding thing in games (unless is a mechanic like in Life is Strange). I feel like I'm cheating myself doing that just to "fix" a mistake I made. But I know that's just me, so I'm happy for the people who want to use it, more options are always welcome.
Now to wait for the Super Nintendo games in 2020 and N64 in 2024/s
I still have the Transfer Pak that came with my Pokemon Stadium game. It's been used just a couple of times as I never owned the GB Pokemon games, I played them thanks to a friend who had RBY and later GSC (their parents imported them from US).
Even then I couldn't use my Pokemon because I always had to return the games before I could really train them to win the cups. Completing that game (and Stadium 2) with just the rental Pokemon was one of my greatest childhood achievements.
I've been playing these games since Red/Blue and I admit that last gen was somewhat weak but the way they're handling these new games are rather alarming. It seems like they're taking these controversial decisions on purpose to see how far they can get before they have to put real effort like other developers have done in recent years to truly evolve their games.
The worst thing about all of this is that the games will still sell. A lot. And they will never learn from their mistakes because money talks.
I love when companies release this kind of demos as I can't get games regularly, and this let me try and play some games for awhile. I'll be downloading this demo, KlK was great and this game looks awesome so this is a no-brainer for me.
I love Digimon. Never had the chance to play these games because I don't own a Vita or PS4, but I've seen some gameplay over the years and I always wanted to try them, and both of them in the same package? Yes please.
Even though I love Pokemon more than any other monster collecting game, I think maybe this is the perfect time for me to skip another Pokemon entry with all that bad decisions and negativity surrounding the games this generation (I didn't play the Let's Go games for almost the same reasons), Digimon, Yokai-Watch, and SMTV (where are my demons Atlus?) will keep me entertained well enough to try and forget about that.
A must for people who enjoyed the ones on 3DS, don't like other monster collecting games, or just want to give the series another chance because they didn't like the others. Let's hope they don't take too much time localizing this one. Really love that new battle system, reminds me of Blaster, and I loved that game.
@Vectorman perverts? I guess we'll leave it like that then. Not gonna start a discussion with a person that can't even get the point I'm trying to make.
@Vectorman maybe because each person is and think different, so you don't have to like the same things that I like, and I don't have to like the same things that you like. That's the beauty of the world we live in.
Some people would like to have her in Smash and don't see or have any problem with Shantae's design or clothes. If Shantae is a problem for Smash because her clothes are to revealing, then I have problems with Female Pokemon Trainer's design because I see too much legs with that short skirt (no, I don't have any problem with that btw).
I love almost anything Trigger so this one is another hit for me. I'm more interested about some people pointing out that window in the beginning that looks like the Smash logo, maybe a coincidence but if not it'll be awesome to have Shantae as a DLC character.
I don't really like mobile games too much (f2p, gacha), but I hope my phone can run this. To have a lot of my favorite trainers in one place to battle with and against is awesome, and 3D models and custom animations for each and everyone? Sign me in please.
Localization please. This game looks gorgeous and fun. This is how you get a game from 3DS to Switch, keeping the essence and charm of the ones before but evolving everything else. Hope it sells more in the coming weeks, this game really deserves it.
@sixrings Hahaha, I always hear good things about Canada, beautiful country in my eyes. It's the first place I think when someone ask me where I'll like to live.
@sixrings nah, I like my things right and perfect. But when you live in a country where everything is upside down and you can barely live, you learn to appreciate and enjoy the little things that life throws to you.
People saying how racing games are unplayable for them at 30fps and here I am, playing Sonic and All Stars Racing Transformed on my laptop at 20fps and enjoying the heck out of it. I know that not everyone is the same in this regard so I respect that.
This game was (and still is) a blast on the PS1/PSP. I love Mario Kart more than any other racer, don't get me wrong, but I like expanding my games horizons and trying different games of the same genre, so this one is a must for me. The long loading times aren't a problem for me, I usually use that time on other games to do other things, like the 20-20-20 rule or get some water to drink.
Thanks for the review, I'll be buying this one someday for sure.
They had the chance to reboot this franchise with the Switch game. But no, let's keep adding more new Pokemon but don't let the trainers play with their old Pokemon because reasons.
I'm not even mad at the graphics (that could've been better), but they decided to hide all their questionable decisions behind that lame excuse, and the graphics are not so far from the 3DS games. Yeah, they're more pretty, but don't tell me GameFreak/TPC don't have the money to really make their games shine.
Personally, I'm really disappointed with the direction this games are taking so I don't think I'll play them for the time being. There will be better options in the future to satisfy my monster collecting needs, like Yo-kai Watch (I hope) and SMTV. And if everything goes wrong, then I still can play the older Pokemon games.
I've been waiting for a Castlevania game that takes place in 1999 since Aria of Sorrow. Always wanted to see the battle when they finally sealed Dracula's Castle. Lost all hope when Iga left Konami.
I'll try to get this game someday in the future. Love Sonic and friends. Hopefully they add some (free) DLC with more tracks and characters like Jet, Cream, or the rest of Team Chaotix.
One of my favorite N64 games, I still have the cartridge and play it once in a while when bored. I remember it was a nightmare trying to get gold on each mission, but that was one of the greatest achievement I got when I was a kid (that and learning english by myself just to be able to understand Ocarina of Time).
Oh man, I love NIS. They make some of my favorite games, it's really sad to read about this. Hope they survive this so they can keep supporting the Switch in the future.
More info is always good. Sadly I'm not as excited about Pokemon as before (still a big fan of everything Pokemon though). I feel like Yo-kai Watch do some things better than Pokemon, and that's what bothers me. With all the money that Pokemon generates I expect the games to be a lot better than those of the competition.
I didn't even liked YW battle system the first time I tried it, but after some months I decided to give it a second try, just to fall in love with the games. Finished 1, 2, Blasters (awesome game), and couldn't finish 3 because my battery died. Lots of things to do in these games while you complete the story, and the post game is awesome too, with lots of quest and bosses to find and defeat. Pokemon has just been disappointing me in that regard for a long time now. The only thing that you can do after finishing the games is training for online battles, and those become repetitive as almost everyone uses the same team and strategy.
Obviously this is just my personal opinion. I've been a Pokemon fan since Red/Blue and that won't change anytime soon, so I hope for this games to be successful when they come out, but I guess it's better if I don't get my expectation too high.
I was hoping for some free DLC in the future. New characters (come on, you have a LOT of characters from the Sonic universe to choose), new tracks, more custom parts. Things to add more fun in the future, like Mario Kart with Link and his bike (I'm still hoping for Kirby, Samus, Captain Falcon, etc, DLC).
I don't think I'll be getting this game anytime soon (broke as F), but I'll be waiting for some free DLC anyway for when I have the chance to enjoy this one and for the people who got it.
Wish I had the money to buy this game. It looks and sounds amazing, 30fps is not a problem for me (I'm not bothered by that on MK8DX with multiplayer).
I'm used to play games under 20fps on my laptop with crap specs. As long as I can play a game I may not play otherwise I'm more than happy.
