@ilikeike From what i watched on the stream, it seems to be local wireless with up to 4 players (they play together during the stream but each one on their own Switch).
@Bigmuc Well, Monster Hunter (on the Switch) is a 3DS port while God Eater 3 is a PS4/PC port.
You might actually like God Eater if you want a game with more story compared to MH. You should check the demo (once it's released) if you get the chance, it might be up your alley.
I still think MH does hunting better but God Eater is pretty good on it's own.
Not sure if it's actually exploitable but it seems to use some outdated version of mruby with known public vulnerabilities. Unless he backported the fixes himself.
Nice new features (some kinda of late), the zoom is particularly pretty good for people with bad eyesight (not me but nice to see accessibility options being added).
Now if they could include folders and themes it would be nice, it's pretty much all i want as far UI design is concerned.
As much trash talk people give to the 2DS, it was actually pretty popular among kids and people with tight budget. As a gamer from a third world country i can relate with this.
I'm just hoping there is no "exclusives" and the current model can still play all future games.
As for the cheaper model, it could sell pretty well if the price is right. Consoles costs an arm and leg where i live so cheap models like the 2DS are pretty popular around here.
I found to the game to be very hard. Not soul crushing but still hard and fun.
Not sure why people expected an easier version, Xbox players didn't have a problem playing it so i don't see why Switch players should be treated different.
@Smash_kirby Yup, i already know that. I don't particularly mind so i'll be playing at launch
@GloryQuestor Hopefully they'll find a way to bring the series to the Switch. I love the Etrian games so much that i hope it we don't see the last of the series on the 3DS.
I know it'll be hard to adapt to a single screen but it would be nice if they manage to do it.
My next purchase is Persona Q2, it'll probably be the final game i'll be buying for my 3DS unless they announce something good for the system.
I think i pretty much got everything i wanted for my 3DS but i still only halfway through my backlog. It'll probably take me a few years to play everything...
Alliance Alive is a good game but i don't think i will be double dipping since i just recently played it on my 3DS.
@Zach777 Danganronpa Trilogy as well, both series are from the same developer (Spike Chunsoft). They should really release Danganronpa and the Nonary games for the Switch.
400GB sd cards are costing the same as a 2DS in my country, i might get one for me. 1TB will probably cost an arm and a leg with all the import taxes we have here.
I wish the dock supported external HDD, it would be way cheaper for me since i play mostly at home.
Best financial results in history, still lay off people - Activision
Well, what i can expect from the company that killed Heroes of the Storm development and was sad that "only made $500 million" during BO4 first week (which was more than Avengers Infinity War).
I recently gifted my niece and nephew a 2DS for each of them. They are loving it.
Being cheap and having a huge library of games helps a lot. They never had one so now they have plenty of games to play. It'll be a few years before they get tired of it.
Depending on the price it could take the place of the 3DS as a "good birthday/christmas" gift for kids as well.
I personally wouldn't mind buying one for my nephew and niece if the price is right. I gave them a 2DS last year and they're loving it. A cheap Switch mini would be next in the list for them in the future.

Re: Review: Lapis x Labyrinth - A Cavalcade Of Colour And Complex Systems
Yup, looks a bit too repetitive for my taste. But i'm still sightly interested so i might pick it up at some point.
Not this month of course, i'm already saving money for a lot of games:
Persona Q2, Mario Maker 2, Crash Team Racing and Bloodstained.
This one will have to wait.
Re: Site News: So, Where’s Our Team Sonic Racing Review?
@Paraka Yeah i was wondering the same, it's not like there is any other good alternatives.
For other platforms is even worse since they don't have Mario Kart, they only have this one and Crash to look forward.

Re: Bandai Namco Announces God Eater 3 Switch Demo, Will Support Local Multiplayer
@Bigmuc God Eater feels more fast paced so you might enjoy it more than MH.
@Morrow The anime only covers like 1/3 of the first game story, let alone the Burst arc.

Re: 3D Dungeon-Crawling RPG Mary Skelter 2 Is Heading To Switch In The West
Already played the first game, it's a fun dungeon crawler. Definitely looking forward to play the sequel.
Re: Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth Will Have A Whopping 27 Pieces Of DLC At Launch
@Anri02 Yeah i know, i actually wanted the navi voices
I know Q1 had the same type DLC but i was still hoping wouldn't be the case for the twins in Q2.
Re: Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth Will Have A Whopping 27 Pieces Of DLC At Launch
"Navi: Justine & Caroline - $2.99"
Well that's too bad, i was hoping at least this one would be included in the game since Q2 is more centered around P5.
Since i'm in a tight budget will just settle with the base game.
Re: Indie Game Removed From Switch eShop After Dev Reveals It Contains A Hidden Code Editor
Not sure if it's actually exploitable but it seems to use some outdated version of mruby with known public vulnerabilities. Unless he backported the fixes himself.
Re: Pokémon Sword & Shield Are Being Developed With A Focus On Switch's Handheld Mode
As long it supports the Pro Controller this time around i'm happy. I play mostly docked these days.
Re: Atelier Lulua: The Scion of Arland Will Have Key New Battle Features
@NinjaWaddleDee They release a new game every year since the PS2. This year we had 2 which is Nelke and Lulua.
Re: Nintendo Switch System Update 8.0.0 Is Now Live
Nice new features (some kinda of late), the zoom is particularly pretty good for people with bad eyesight (not me but nice to see accessibility options being added).
Now if they could include folders and themes it would be nice, it's pretty much all i want as far UI design is concerned.
Re: RPG Sephirothic Stories Brings Its Turn-Based Battles To Switch Next Week
They are charging double the price compared to the mobile version.
Avoid.
Re: EA Laying Off Around 350 Employees Across Multiple Divisions
I'm guessing the CEOs are getting a cut in their millionaire salaries as well, right? Right?
Re: Rumour: This Year's 'Budget' Switch Could Take The 2DS Route And Ditch A Killer Feature
If the price is right it could sell pretty well.
As much trash talk people give to the 2DS, it was actually pretty popular among kids and people with tight budget. As a gamer from a third world country i can relate with this.
Re: Anniversary: Nintendo 3DS Launched 8 Years Ago Today In Europe
I'm a late adopter (2017) so i still have a lot of 3DS games to play and that's not even counting the DS games.
Totally worth it.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Is Releasing Two New Versions Of Switch This Year
I'm just hoping there is no "exclusives" and the current model can still play all future games.
As for the cheaper model, it could sell pretty well if the price is right. Consoles costs an arm and leg where i live so cheap models like the 2DS are pretty popular around here.
Re: Cuphead Won't Be Any Easier On Nintendo Switch
I found to the game to be very hard. Not soul crushing but still hard and fun.

Re: Random: Is State Of Play PlayStation's Take On Nintendo Direct?
I know you guys need clicks for revenue but damn, at least try to make an effort.
Re: Review: Azure Saga: Pathfinder Deluxe Edition - A Largely Forgettable JRPG Romp
Looks ok for the price, i might pick it up in the future. At least it does look better than most Kemco games.
Re: Did Gearbox Software Just Share An Image Of Borderlands 2 For Nintendo Switch?
Borderlands 2 is a really good game. But it's published by 2K so it'll probably cost $60...
Re: Video: Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth Gets Brand New Story Trailer

I'm just happy this is getting localized, can't wait to play this!
Re: Yo-Kai Watch 4 Finally Gets A Solid Release Date, In Japan At Least
Hopefully we'll be able to play this in english soon.
Re: Reminder: Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn Launches Today - Nintendo's Final Major 3DS Release?
Waiting for my copy to arrive.
My next purchase is Persona Q2, it'll probably be the final game i'll be buying for my 3DS unless they announce something good for the system.
I think i pretty much got everything i wanted for my 3DS but i still only halfway through my backlog. It'll probably take me a few years to play everything...
Re: Deals: Boost Your Switch Storage With A 400GB Micro SD Card For Just £56
@sikthvash Same here, i play mostly docked so having the dock to support external HDD would be nice for me.
1TB or 2TB USB HDD are pretty cheap where i live.
Re: Talking Point: Could Nintendo Ditch Physical Media With A 'Switch Lite?'
Not really, if they want a cheaper Switch lite then it's better to drop the dock and the detachable joy con.
Leave the game card slot alone.
Re: Fantasy RPG Bonds Of The Skies Is Flying Onto Nintendo Switch
This game is free on Android by the way. If you reeeally want to play this then just download for your phone.
But honestly there is better alternatives out there, like Octopath and Romancing Saga 2.
Re: Atlus Releasing HD Remaster Of The Alliance Alive On Nintendo Switch
Alliance Alive is a good game but i don't think i will be double dipping since i just recently played it on my 3DS.
@Zach777 Danganronpa Trilogy as well, both series are from the same developer (Spike Chunsoft). They should really release Danganronpa and the Nonary games for the Switch.
Re: Review: Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn - A Timeless Classic That Feels Right At Home On 3DS
Looks good. Since i never owned a Wii i'll be picking this up at launch.
Re: Random: Multiple Nintendo Characters Appear In Mixer Banner On Xbox One Dashboard
Sigh...
I thought NL learned how Mixer works by now after the last article but i guess not.
Re: Video: 13 Fantastic New Games Coming To The Nintendo Switch In March
Yoshi is guaranteed, maybe Unravel Two as well. Looks like a fun game to play with my family.
Re: Guide: Where To Pre-Order Pokémon Sword and Shield On Nintendo Switch
Too early to decide on which version i'll pick it up, let alone pre-order. Not enough info for me to decide this now.
Re: 1TB Micro SD Cards Are About To Hit Stores, Perfect For Your Switch Storage Woes

Re: Turns Out Many Characters Shared One Body In Zelda: The Wind Waker
Slow day, huh? This is pretty common in game development by the way.
Re: Wargroove Dev Says Sony Refused Cross-Platform Play Despite Chairman's Comments
Sounds like they are playing favorites if this is true.

Well, what i can expect from the company that killed Heroes of the Storm development and was sad that "only made $500 million" during BO4 first week (which was more than Avengers Infinity War).
Re: Square Enix Producer Retweets Nintendo Direct Announcement, Sends Speculation Into Overdrive
Dreaming about being Seiken Densetsu Collection in the west but most likely just the release date for FF7.
Unlikely to be KH related, you guys are waaay too optimistic.
Re: Square Enix Trademarks Final Fantasy Adventure And Secret Of Mana In The US
I prefer the Collection over the 3D remake, i hope they finally bring it to the west.
Re: More Than 1,800 Games Have Now Been Released On The Nintendo Switch
Since i own a gaming PC i'm only buying exclusives and local co-op games (to play with my family). But even so there is a lot of games for the Switch.
I'm pretty happy with it so far.
Re: Nintendo Will Continue To Sell The 3DS, As Long As There Is Consumer Demand For It
I recently gifted my niece and nephew a 2DS for each of them. They are loving it.
Being cheap and having a huge library of games helps a lot. They never had one so now they have plenty of games to play. It'll be a few years before they get tired of it.
Re: Monster Hunter Generations Hits 3 Million Sales Across Switch And 3DS
You mean "Generations Ultimate", which is called Monster Hunter XX (Double Cross) in Japan.
Monster Hunter "Generations" was only released for the 3DS and sold 4.3 million units.
Re: Store Your Switch Cartridges In Style With These Game Card Pods, Pre-Orders Now Open
Pretty design but not worth when you can buy the Hori case which can hold 24 games.
Also my Switch case already holds 8 games alongside my Switch.
Re: Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth On 3DS Won’t Include English Voice Work
Doesn't matter to me, i'm still getting it. I actually like japanese VO in most JRPGs.
But i understand the frustration of some people here, not everyone likes playing with japanase dub after all. For me it's fine though.
Re: Talking Point: What Do You Want From A Switch Mini?
Depending on the price it could take the place of the 3DS as a "good birthday/christmas" gift for kids as well.
I personally wouldn't mind buying one for my nephew and niece if the price is right. I gave them a 2DS last year and they're loving it. A cheap Switch mini would be next in the list for them in the future.
Re: Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth Officially Confirmed For The West, Premium Edition Detailed
The premium edition looks tempting, i'll probably get that one...
Re: Capcom Has No Plans "At This Time" To Release The Resident Evil 2 Remake On Switch
GPD Win 2 also costs $649. You can't really compare...
Re: Capcom Has No Plans "At This Time" To Release The Resident Evil 2 Remake On Switch
If you want to play every popular game you'll need to invest in more than one platform, like PS4 or PC.
I have a gaming PC alongside my Switch so i'm won't be missing games like this.
However i wouldn't be surprised if they make a "Cloud version" like RE7, not that i'm interested in cloud gaming...
Also this is a very old comment:

Re: Game-Breaking Bug Found In Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story On 3DS
@Alpha008 And Etrian Nexus, maybe Persona Q2 too. As an Etrian fan i can't wait for them!
Re: Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth Rated By The Australian Classification Board
Nice! This is the last game i wanted on my 3DS and as a Persona AND Etrian fan i didn't want to miss this one.
Hopefully it'll be localized this year...
