Game looks interesting. will wait for reviews. I miss Ace Combat and this looks like a slower version of that. Not sure if it's the video or not but the games frame rate doesn't look good.
I would actually watch that. It looks entertaining and well done. Would be cool if they could continue this at a real studio and do a 13 or 26 episode run.
@Zyph The difference with this is it's a known problem and proven that the graphite chips away over time. In some cases this happens in a month or 2 and others perhaps more then a year. I've replaced no less then 9 sticks since the Switch came out. Most were over longer periods of time for me but why should I just accept it and not hold Nintendo responsible? I understand normal wear and tear but this is anything but normal.
I have now opened my pro controller twice to clean that out and so far that works with compressed air so I have no complaints there but I hear that's an issue for many too.
@BeautyandtheBeer @nessisonett When it was first announced to go multiplatform Nintendo did tweet out that news so if anything perhaps they have to make it work. I even said I wouldn't care if it was a direct port from the PS3 version. It would still be the best Baseball games on the system.
Who knows where the industry would be now if Nintendo and Sony never had a fall out?! I like to think things are better now for it as Nintendo could've continued their dominance if not for the fall out.
I picked it up but not till about 3 months later on sale. Besides I wasn't playing it till they patched some of the issues out. I really did enjoy it once I started. Only the clock tower stage for the most part ran awful.
Why is there not a review yet? I know this site can't review every single game since there so many but I figured you would do the slightly higher quality games?!
The last golf game I played was Mario Golf on the 3ds. That's not counting Golf Story mind you. The last sim golf game I played was Tiger Woods on the Wii. It feels far too long since I've played a real golf game. If only Nintendo would bring Mario Golf to the Switch I would be there day one. Some of my favorite gaming moments were on the N64 and Cube version. I really wish they would go back to that for a future game......
@TheFox You're entitled to your opinion even in this day and age. I happen to agree with you. $70 is a fair price for a big budget AAA game that doesn't end in less then 10 hours. If it does end in less then 10 hours it better have a lot of replay value. I also agree that Link's Awakening is not worth $60. $50 at best. It's a fine game but it's over way too fast.
Or they could do what Playtonic did and design the game with the Switch in mind first (ie getting it to run at 60 fps) then upscale it to the other consoles. Worked great for the Impossible Lair!
This style of business is garbage and shouldn't be tolerated but at the end of the day it gives the Switch more games and that's what the system needs. When it eventually comes it will be a deep sale for me. Not that big on the Crash games anyways but that doesnt take away from the fact it should be there day one!
@Dualmask It is now but wasn't there when the article went live. If you look up about 10 to 15 comments you will see it got added along with Grid being updated.
@dartmonkey Yeah, you totally forgot the Witcher 3. Not sure if you noticed yet from some comments.
I have 17 of these games and one of them I don't have is a free to play game. Add in the Witcher 3 and that makes 18. Shows I support the game if it gets ported to the Switch.
@OorWullie I played enough to know it feels a bit like Monster Hunter. I got too many games at once and it sat. I'm just now playing Diablo 3 and I bought that day one lol.
I trust the company porting it more then anything after playing through The Witcher 3. I also trust they will continue working on it and improve it down the road if need be.

Re: Random: Check Out This Amazing "Skyview Temple" Custom Dungeon For Zelda: Breath Of The Wild
This is definitely a gray area they may want to avoid especially with Nintendo coming down hard on sites in the last few years.

Re: CIRCLE Entertainment Kicks Off Autumn Switch Sale, Get Up To 85% Off Select Games
Anything worth getting there? I owned a good deal of their games on the 3ds and enjoyed most but dont have a single game of theirs on the Switch.
Re: Poll: How Do You Feel About 'Limited-Time' Games From Nintendo?
I think it's pointless and stupid to be honest. It's like saying we only want to sell between 10 to 20 million copies but no more. We hate more money.

Re: Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Calamity Is Getting A Deluxe 'Treasure Box' Edition In Japan
I jumped on the Master Edition for BotW. Only Zelda can make me spend more money in that way.

Re: Video: Genshin Impact Gets A New Story Trailer Ahead On September Multiformat Debut
At first I did think it was a BotW RIP off but then realized so what if it is. This game does look really good and I'm interested in reviews for this.
Re: Koji Igarashi Explains How Zelda Influenced His Work On Castlevania And Bloodstained
@nessisonett Zelda 2 remake needs to happen! It needs it the most even though I still really like the game.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel #57 - Shadow Of The Ninja / Blue Shadow
That was the hardest choice for me out of all of these. While none are great they all are good enough.

Re: Review: PGA Tour 2K21 - A Good Starting Point For Golf Fans On Switch
Saw Gamexplain playing this and it just feels too lifeless to me. Not sure if crowds would even help.
Re: Review: Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition - A Weak RPG Enlivened By Nostalgia
Huge FF fan but this has never interested me. I like my single player games far more and not being able to play locally is a big no no!
Re: Award-Winning Puzzler Manifold Garden Gets A Surprise Launch On Switch
This game looks too much like Ori to me and that game was just alright in my book. Too many trial and error segments that I just assume forget.
Re: Ring Fit Adventure Is Getting Its Own Direct In China Tomorrow
Sure why not, sell it to a billion people!😝
Re: Bloodstained: Ritual Of The Night On Switch Had Biggest Response, Sales Were "Well Above" Expectations

Re: Upcoming Fantasy Battle Royale Spellbreak Gets Another Set Of New Screenshots
@Cevil They dont look all that different then BotW to me. Nearly the same art style. No reason why it shouldn't look good to me.

Re: Zelda: Breath Of The Wild Transformed Into Stunning Studio Ghibli-Inspired Poster
Zelda looks fine but Link looks all kinds of wrong there!

Hasn't anyone noticed that the Playstation art style hasn't aged well?? Those were some ugly 3d graphics!
Re: Poll: So, What Was Nintendo's Best Year Ever?
Nothing beats BotW, Odyssey, and Splatoon 2 for me. So many good games that year!
Re: Animal Crossing: New Horizons: Fireworks Show - Event Date, Start Time, Redd's Raffle Items List And Custom Fireworks Explained

Re: Earthlock 2 Might Not Make It To Nintendo Switch, It Seems
Bought the first a while back probably on the last sale. Still haven't started it yet but the second one looks promising.
Re: Poll: No, Really, What Was Nintendo's Worst Year?
The last year of the Wii was pretty bad. The transition between consoles seemed like it took forever.

Re: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Players Discover '4th Level' Glitch Workaround
If you're standing on the fourth level when the patch hits do you also get patched out?!?!😏
Re: Talking Point: Does Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Rollout Of Event Updates Make It Feel 'Incomplete'?
It gives us something to come back to after we get bored with it. You can only do the same things every day for so long.
Re: Review: Paper Mario: The Origami King - A Puzzling Battle System Can't Kill This Funny Adventure

Re: Netflix's Dragon's Dogma Anime Will Arrive This September
Haven't played the game yet (even though I own it since day one) but I can see how an anime might turn out well. I will definitely give this a try.
