SuperCharlie78

are the Switch sales slowing down?

At least we must wait for the end of october's investors meeting to see if they low the HW sales predictions. They're still sitting with the 20 millions mark by the end of march 2019

I loved this game like crazy!

Still too much stuff for a "easily overwhelmed" Nintendo fan's little brain like mine.

@Kiz3000 I'd pick Steredenn too, but it's anywhere to be seen. Have you found it in the special offers section?
Meanwhile I picked Yoku's Island Express in the last 40% off day

the app is Nintendo being Nintendo.
They deliver some of the best games in the industry, but when it comes to online funcionalities, they're absolutely inadequate.

Please let's remember the year 2005, when the Xbox 360 was bundled with a headset and you could start a voice chat CROSS GAMES, with no issues regarding the audio of the game you were playing. You called a friend, started to chat, while the two were playing totally different games, just to prepare for some coop or anithing to do together.
And what if you wanted to invite some other friends to the battle? Naturally, you did this with the INVITE A FRIEND feature. Your friend would see a pop up message from you, "Charlie wants you to play Halo", just click, accept and the system itself, after saying he must change the game disc, would THROW HIM DIRECTLY INTO THE LOBBY.

Now let's consider the Nintendo Switch Online whole system, where you can't even send a private text message to your friends...

Oh Nintendo, I love you so much, but sometimes I think you really deserve to fail hard

@Balta666
Actually, Splatoon 2 is currently the (way more) complicated of them all. You have to follow several steps in order to reach your friends (and only them) via voice chat. With the other games, you start the smartphone app, say you want to voice chat and you can do it with everyone in the current lobby.
It's likely they'll simplify Splatoon 2 voice chat system with the upcoming October update

Octopath Traveler
I'm into chapters 4, it's getting pretty serious.
Love this game so much

Carcassonne - December 2018 (Featuring solo play, four-player local multiplayer, and future expansions as DLC)

No online play???

I remember playing Carcassonne online to death on the Xbox 360, something like 10 years ago. This is so baffling

this game is great!
But I've already got a platinum trophy out of it. Lets' see the price but I don't expect anything less than 15€, which I will not spend.

Have it already on Steam, I'll suggest my son to "play" it

No collector's edition for these ones?

I might get Golf Story. I've already played it for about 30 hours, but loved it so much I may double dip

Same was with Slime-san, they should ship mi collector's edition this month

Axiom Verge at 50% off tempts me...

@JamesR did you put 90 hours into it, multiplied by 9? Or just 90?

They'll likely give a free 1 month subscription so people could try for themselves.
No need to worry about the time running out, it's not that they will charge money all of a sudden

@Tops Yeah. This site, which I've followed dayly for an awful lot of years, used to review every game with great respect, even the RCMADIAX ones.
Today we read in the very title that we should avoid a game.
@Damo please, please reconsider this one. Or just tell us the real reason why you're doing something so questionable.

@Damo I thought the tagline was enough for this purpose.
Please rethink this move

That title tough

Is this a first on the site?

@retro_player_22
I think those games were the Labo Vehicle kit and... Er... Stuff like that

I will win

Victors Hollow, the best

@Stu13 yes, maybe the pre-order discount came later. I remember not finding the trailer, though. This is a shame, actually

But again, I doubt they "bombed" because of that.

And yeah, there are 20 releases per week, but things are even worse on other platforms. Probably they should have promoted the game themselves and with some exclusive content, especially this being a 2 years old port

It's not that with an updated and better eShop UI you'd get Cosmic Star Heroine in your face every time you get there.

This is when you go on sale or post in your news channel (did Nintendo refuse to give them a channel in the news section?)

I just read this on Gonintendo, they also say the Switch version sold 2/3rds of the PS4 one, which is fine I think, considering there are 80 millions PS4 and 20 millions Switch in the world currently. So this should've been 25% of PS4 sales, 66% is good.

As for me, I was on the fence and almost bought this game when it released, but the review from this very site kept me away from it. I'm enjoying Octopath so I should be fine with CSH? Mhhh I highly doubt

Oh Slime-san, you're not done yet, are you?

Waiting for the Collector's edition from LRG here

Oddly enough, they haven't inverted the colors from the green/pink set available in stores

So if you already own those joycon you get another left green and right pink

The game is wonderful, love it. But I've already played it a lot and got a platinum on PS, don't plan to double dip on this. Sorry

This game is a blast.

The only relevant (and annoying) performance issue I've noticed is in the second level, the moment those bat-like monsters appear. The frame rate goes down to 30 fps I'd say.
Apart from this and some other minor hiccups the game is perfectly enjoyable

This will be the third time I purchase this game.
I love It to the point I also bought the official artbook and the gorgeous OST. Oh and I bought Okamiden collector's edition directly from the Japanese Capcom store, too.

Just downloaded it.

I'm in Italy, so next friday I will have to wake up soon

the amount of good games is embarassing, frankly

I'm involved with Aces and Octopath at the moment, let alone other games waiting. I'm forced to pass on this, Salt&Sanctuary and Dead Cells, unfortunately. There's simply not enough time to play all the good Switch games, and this is going to get even worse with the insane amount of games releasing weekly. Oh...

10) [NSW] The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Limited Edition Included) (Nintendo, 03/03/17) – 7,1173 (1,050,891)

That's insane lol

best eShop game!

the most played after Xenoblade 2 (100 hrs)

can't believe they're charging 20 cents for a mobile wallpaper

anyway, My Nintendo keeps being useless

Octopath, enough said

@Moroboshi876
You can believe me. Just play in advance.
If you're righthand the slice will go outwards if you serve from the right, inwards if you serve from the left. If your character plays with the left hand then it's in reverse. There's no escape from this lol

@Moroboshi876
Wah he using Boo or Rosalinda?
The slice serve with the blue trail?
Just stay close to the service line, no more aces!

@NinjaAceTrainer
Oh good for you then. I found her very weak, maybe I should've kept on her to discover her strengths? Fact is, in almost 150 online matches I've never met her.

@denis09

Yeah, I agree.
We also must say the gameplay here is stellar, no less. It's easy to pick, (very) hard to master.
This is not enough for some players, I can't blame them and it's the reason why I give it a 7 at best.

Not that I like this trend, far from it, but there's room for improvement here, they must balance some characters and add options that are lacking atm. Better than nothing I think. Question is: will they support the game this way? I think they won't, but let's see

@Moroboshi876

I understand. But this is up to you. Play matches, lose a lot and learn something every time.

This is because the gameplay mechanics are almost too deep and it takes time to master them all. Focus on one character at a time and learn how to manage their strenghts and weaknesses, then try to study your opponent during the very first points

Both Kirby and Mario Tennis are very cheap games. The adventure mode is disappointing and not for the lack of gem models...

That said I'm enjoying the online multiplayer a lot, the tournament system is brilliant and you get a sense of progressive difficulty like in a real tournament, more or less.

You just have to skip Bowser Jr. which is OP, and well completely ignore Toad and Toadette, you're not going far with them.

I'm quite good with Peach lately, 3 tournaments and a 76% win rate in july.

I don't expect Camelot to read these complaints and patch the game by nerfing and buffing characters. I'd like to be proved wrong though

@Anti-Matter
or the Kid Icarus stand, or the Hori Switch stand...

@Zuljaras I think it's there because of the Playstation sales. Speaking of that, amazing not to see Uncharted 4.
If Nintendo puts its games at 20€ each we would see different charts results maybe

Yeah, folders and themes.

Why would I turn on the Switch to watch Netflix?

I simply cannot hold all these games, despite the fact I'm a 10+ gaming hours per week player.
Now Hollow Knight, next week Just Shapes and Mario Tennis, oh and the Octo expansion available now... And the new Octopath demo, and all the games waiting on my micro SD. Then there is my eShop wishlist, which is embarassing to say the least

They could have given the cross buy option at that price, or sold it at half price, but Nintendo is quite presumptuous lately. Face the consequences, Nintendo

@Fabraz
Yeah, I just checked and was about to report it.
Oh Fabraz, why are you so awesome?!
Is your next game (SpiritSphere DX which will launch on July 2nd) as good as SlimeGod-san?

@holygeez03 More like a pun, I think...

Actually the Collector's Edition is long gone, it was limited to only 2500 pieces.
But I logged in at 4PM CEST and grabbed one for myself!
It took me 65 euro... But I love this game to the point I absolutely had to own one.
Anyway, this game is a masterpiece, no less.

I own the actual board game (with various expansions) and it's beautiful.
I also played it a lot on the Xbox 360. To say I love this game is an understatement

Oh Goncalo, my wallet is blaming you, again

@JJ286
Please consider this is a shoot em up, and it's hard, I mean really hard.
That said I think this is a real masterpiece and even if you aren't that good at shmups, as you can read in this excellent review, you can still enjoy the game by playing it on easy difficulty and with infinite continues. Even this way you should enjoy it visually. Not to mention the ridiculously good OST, which I'd say is worth the asking price alone.
If you are keen to master this game by improving your skills, then you're in for a treat.
