Re: Blizzard Is Indeed Bringing Overwatch 2 To The Nintendo Switch

StarSurfer

@nessisonett You can play the game and keep everything from the first version, while playing the game with friends on OW1 and on top of that, Switch is actually going to be a launch platform this time! <3. $40 for Switch copy was a really good price point for a 3 year old game. OW2, we’re not going to see that one for at least 1-2 years. So game on!

Re: Random: Unofficial Fortnite Event Underwhelms Crowds In UK City

StarSurfer

So many F2P video games lack substance and reason to invest these days. The return on investment for anything other than you might have something someone else doesn’t, and playing the game makes you happy. Shucks, happy hour can do that after work, that’s why it’s called happy hour!! TBH Apex Legends launching on Switch would be good for 4-5 months. Only to have something else come along. Tetris 99 on the other hand... That game definitely has staying power! I don’t see Fortnite crashing anytime soon. It’s core fan base will keep it going. It’s just not the hot title anymore...

Re: Spawn Creator Hints That The Character Might Appear In Mortal Kombat 11

StarSurfer

Um great! I wasn’t planning on getting the game until now. The comics and HBO series are a must if you want to check out Spawn. The only thing good that came out of the 90s movie was it’s soundtrack. KORN, Incubus, Silver Chair (their track to this day still gives me chills) Kirk Hammett. All I have to say is, death becomes clear through bloodshot eyes... 👿

Re: Random: Police Respond To Noise Complaint And End Up Playing Smash Bros. Ultimate

StarSurfer

@NIN10DOXD In response to the Kendal Jenner comment. Saint Paul has seen its share of gun violence. Philando Castile was shot and killed by Saint Anthony police out here. That news story exploded and painted the picture this kind of stuff can happen anywhere, even in Minnesota. Seeing the police officers joining in ‘Smash with these gamers shows me Minnesota Nice still exists. I hope it continues and shows everyone we can have peace and friendship with law enforcement.

Re: Rumour: Dataminers Uncover Evidence Of Diablo Themed amiibo

StarSurfer

@2legit2quit I was a bronze league player, had the game on PS4, I'm what you call a port beggar as far as that game is concerned, I want it on Switch... Overwatch was the successful result of the aftermath of project Titan. I'm very familiar with both games. For a good chunk of time before that. World of Warcraft was a dominating force long before Overwatch dropped. Whole BlizzCons were built around that. Everything else was kept aside. Only in the last 5 years, other games have started to be part of the Blizzard family. It's good to see them branch out again.

Re: Rumour: Dataminers Uncover Evidence Of Diablo Themed amiibo

StarSurfer

Good on Nintendo for extending the Amiibo line to third party devs. I’m happy to see this working out. Blizzard isn’t just a PC game company, it’s a video game company with the goal to make amazing games. They lost sight of that focusing primarily on one cash cow MMO for the last 14-15 years. Sure they’ve had expansions for other titles, and World of Warcraft was a monster success... But they need to keep growing, they have the capital. They’re not some little indie developer a good number of their fans make them out to be. They’re one of the last surviving brands from the 90s not picked up and eaten by EA. That foundation is built. Let’s focus on other areas of the house. I want to see them grow, the Amiibo is a step in that direction. Game on!

Re: Diablo III On Switch Will Include amiibo Support, According To Blizzard Developer

StarSurfer

Blizzard Amiibo: Diablo, Female Barbarian, Decard Cain, Witch Doctor, annnnd (wishful thinking) TRACER. Because Overwatch will be on Switch sometime next year. Think of how elusive D3 devs were about that title coming to Switch. Concerning they never flat out said Overwatch isn’t going to happen. Just that it’s challenging. Meaning they’re probably adjusting the specs right now.

Re: Video: Get A First Look At Diablo III: Eternal Collection Running On Nintendo Switch

StarSurfer

I go to bed earlier now so fall gets here faster, and to bank the sleep now I'll lose playing this game! Seriously, anyone interested in OW on Nintendo Switch, it's up to us to convince Blizzard it needs to happen. Their devs say it will work. We need to show them we want it! Facebook posts often as you can. I plan to send a letter at least once a month, that's how bad I want to play the game on Switch. Who's with me?!

Re: Poll: As "Gaming Disorder" Becomes A Thing, Is It Time To Assess How Much You Play?

StarSurfer

Misspent youth video gaming. No regrets. did I miss out on somethings? probably... Did I stay up too late playing video games? Yep, but I've pulled more all-nighters when my boys were babies. Did I spend more time on video games compared to homework? Yeah, but I also spent more time working than on homework and gaming combined. If anything, wish I spent more time on Nintendo games and less on PC ones, and had spent more time in school, to make more money, to buy more video games!!

Re: Rumour: Datamined Images Provide More Evidence That Overwatch-Clone Paladins Will Come To Switch

StarSurfer

Calling Paladins a clone, is this a news post, a review or an editorial? Stick to the facts with some color. Calling a similar game a clone. That’s like calling Doom a Wolfenstein clone! I grew up on Spear of Destiny... Leave it to the comment board to call it a clone.

As for the games. I played Overwatch first, so playing this game may make me miss Overwatch. Even if Paladins comes to Switch, It won’t convince Blizzard to bring OW. They even called out Sony at one of their Blizzcon’s for launching PS4 not long after D3 was released on PS3. Probably left a bad taste for dev’ing for console.

Side note, check out the bench test for Overwatch on the Smach Z portable PC. They play it on low settings. I plan to watch a few times to get an idea of how it would work on Nintendo Switch.

Re: Rumour: Pokémon Switch's Release Date Could Be As Early As November This Year

StarSurfer

I will buy Pokémon before Smash, keep in mind they’re two entirely different style games. People who are crazy about Smash, EVO, and fighting games will end up buying both anyway.

I plan to get both eventually. But a Pokémon title released in November, I’m okay with this.

Let’s be honest, how many people only get one video game as a Christmas present these days?

Can’t wait to play Pokémon on Nintendo Switch!

Re: Nintendo Has Filed A Mysterious Patent For Amiibo-Style NFC Cards

StarSurfer

This would be an interesting turn in the Pokémon TCG community. I’d rather see TCGO on Nintendo Switch over Hearthstone. Didn’t think that way before, but now my boys and I collect Pokémon cards. I see way more potential behind a Pokémon game like that on Nintendo Switch. The physical cards hold way more value, and the player base seems friendlier compared to Hearthstone.

Re: The Games Industry Reacts To The White House's Violent Games Showreel

StarSurfer

Dear Dumpf, your Nazi propagandist videos aren’t fooling anyone, Millennials are bulletproof to BS...

As for the Games for Change folks, nice counter! The Emperor knows nothing of our world, the world you depict is the side I love. I do have a soft spot for Overwatch, Doom, and soon maybe Fortnite, but that doesn’t make me a killer...

Re: Video: Digital Foundry Considers "Nintendo Switch Pro" With NVIDIA Tegra 2 Processor

StarSurfer

Hold your horses Digital Foundry!

The Nintendo Switch has barely been out a year, now there’s talk of upgrades? If this is going the way of the 3DS, we’d better see some backwards compatibility here for the oodles of games people all purchasing! This puts a sour taste in my mouth after having picked up two systems for the family... Give this ground breaking system a chance to grow and give it some time before we move to yet another system. This is the big N were talking here, not Xbox...

Re: White House Meeting With Industry Execs Focuses On Violence In Video Games

StarSurfer

As opposed to PG13 movies which are violent but acceptable?

If the emperor wants to bolster his army, having desensitized, trigger happy kids would be a good thing right?

WHERE’s THE NRA TO BACK THESE GUYS UP? They’re using firearms based on real life ones. I hate how Drumpf double speaks. They can take away our virtual guns, but the people who have real firearms are allowed to keep their tactical military style guns? Ridiculous!

Re: The Studio That Ported Skyrim To Switch Wants To Tackle Monster Hunter World Next

StarSurfer

Capcom is going to be proven wrong that Monster Hunter World will work on Nintendo Switch, and I can’t wait to hear how the success will shoot past the other 2 consoles. Serves them right!

Most gaming companies have terrible marketing teams... Such a waste! They keep saying it won’t sell it won’t sell, as the community is sitting here DROOLING over the thought. Guaranteed the Internet will be set ablaze when Iron Galaxy is awarded the port, and I will thank them, and NOT Capcom, as it WASN’T their idea...

Re: Rumour: Is Blizzard Teasing A Nintendo Switch Port Of Diablo 3?

StarSurfer

Why else would they be playing with a Switch on Diablo? Or they put Diablo on a Switch because the light comes on by itself??? This is also showing up shortly after the other rumor went out. Anyone else noticing the Diablo Facebook page seems to be broken? I can’t see post history from Feb 14 on. It’s like they don’t want Nintendo gamers flooding their site or something. So I make my comments right on the Blizzard page!
