If Bandai Namco have a game for Switch - I can only assume its Naruto to Boruto Shinobi Strikers. Since thats one of its newest games that would fit incredibly well on Switch. And with naruto and Switch being pretty popular, it seems a no-brainer. Besides, it's the only console that will enable local multiplayer easily for up to 8 players.
I LOVED this game so much back on my PS3 that I did end up grabbing Dark Arisen when it came out too. And honestly, I've missed it ever since turning off my PS3 and PS4 for the last time.
SO THIS IS GREAT NEWS! This was actually a wishlist title I always hoped would be ported over but had no expectation that they would. But now its actually coming over - I can't believe it! The amount of times I played that game over from the beginning... Wow. Now I really will have every title I've ever liked and played on Switch. Bayonetta, Pokemon, Smash, Rain World, Dragons Dogma, Disgaea... Just wow. Bravo Ninendo.
What do people even get out of doing this? A chuckle here and there but then what? Seems like an abhorrent waste of their time tbh. Moreso than anyone elses.
I think the Mii's could always use some more costumes. Let people really go in with their own "... joins SMASH" sorta thing. But what I'd REALLY like to see, is a new Mii class in Mii Spellcaster or something akin to magic-based abilities.
Now if someone would be so kind as to return my lost Pokemon X and Alpha Sapphire versions I lost last year - I'd be feeling the spirit of christmas too.
@Desa My thoughts exactly. I bet it was all the mother's doing and that she saw those other stars trying to get in on some money. Figured her son had a case and went right along with sueing, even before getting his consent on it.
@patbacknitro18 I echo the fact that Pokemon 2019 has a lot to live up to. And I'm looking forward to seeing if they can surprise us at all next to this iteration of Yokai Watch (which is looking gorgeous, by the way). I do sorta wish you could control the yokai themselves though... Ah well - if they localise the game for the west in 2019, then I'll gladly pick it up. If not... Well, there's always Smash.
Now that I think about it - it would be kinda cool to have someone from the Yokai watch series in Smash. Either Jibanyan himself or Nate/Keita. I forget, did the anime come first or was it the games? I hope it was the games, anyway. Because seeing some Yokai Watch love might encourage Level 5 to bring Yokai Watch 4 over to the west muuuuch quicker.
Still not happy about the subscription thing. We already pay for Nintendo Online - you'd think those of us already shelling out money for that wouldn't have to pay more per month for... comics...
So I'm not the only one who has issues with K.Rool? Im pretty glad about that. Something just seemed so wrong about him being able to combo me into oblivion before I can react. I use a light character, for gods sake!
I gotta admit, I dont care for retro games at all. But Reggie, you DID say to "come back to you in a year and see where we are" and look at this - still no Mother 3. So I dont know how anyone can take your word for it at face value anymore. Mother 3 or not.
@ReshiramZekrom Same. Mains are just personal preferences of characters. That said, I'm glad Ness feels as comfortable with me in Ultimate as he did in Sm4sh. Pichu as well! Now if only I could get to grips with the controls... I'm still struggling to grasp them even after beating Galeem!
But this article looks exactly the same as the last one and the video is the exact same one too. What's "new" about this? And yes, I do mean this exact video and game was shown off in one of this years Nintendo Directs. I dont recall which one though. January? Iunno.
See, this would have been a nice little surprise to have experienced in person. I get that this is news, but I really would have appreciated the attention to detail that much more had this article not been posted. There was no way for me to avoid seeing it either as it has both pokemon and smash in the title.
Gonna have to avoid this site completely now too in that case...
Makes sense. Though I do wonder if the same argument could be used to explain why Kirby couldn't outrun the blast too. Its not like every character wouldn't have access to items, right?
It could be argued that the Creators Program is what helped kill off the Wii U. So I imagine with Switch, they're just trying to make sure everyone has their eyes on Nintendo games - not just via Nintendo Directs and Nintendo Channels. Thus, getting rid of the program.
X & Y being 14th? Even though we got trainer customization, full 3D pokemon experience forthe first time, Mega Evolutions (I hate them but they still count), the PSS, the Fairy typing that balanced things out and "friends" to travel with that make you feel like you're on an actual journey?
And you put Heart Gold and Soul Silver over that just because the pokemon follow you? The bias is real palpable.
Players can simply take turns per battle and create custom Spirit sets for themselves. It might be a single player-oriented adventure but you can still find ways to play it together.
Also, this basically reinforces getting the game and playing it for yourself. Which would ultimately sell more copies in the long run, I believe. Which I would agree with.
I can wait no problem. I have the day the game comes out AND the following monday off work just to enjoy this game. As long as the game plays like you'd expect Smash to play, I'll be topping my record of playing Brawl every day for 5 years with ease. Just... Ness, please don't change that much... Please.
You honestly expect me to believe Nintendo would have intentionally restricted it's own sales potential? I doubt that. I'm leaning on poor choice made by retailers.
I've heard from my channels that people weren't happy with the Beta and that there was no substance, essentially. In short, 76 has disappointed the masses right now. I feel sorry for the fans, tbh.
I'm not even sure what to make of this. I originally wanted the game brought over here, due to the character creator and such way back when. But seeing the gameplay... I've since changed my mind. Now, I'm not interested at all. However, if they change up the gameplay some, update the graphics considerably (this has got to be the first game I'll ever say looks horrible graphically right off the bat) and make the game closer to the best DB arena game ever (Dragonball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3) then I'll be happy.
Sweeeeeeet! I loved playing this game alone and it got better when I had friends to play with! I'll definitely dive back in for more secret things to kill!

Re: Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen Will Get Lovely Collector's Edition Bundles On Switch In Japan
@Retupmocnin Dragons Dogma is a silly little game with loads of fun moments and an admittedly hollow storyline. But I think it's aged incredibly well.

Would be so great if they added local multiplayer to this version. Ah well, I'm still hype.
