Looking closely at this video it seems to be running the Torna engine. I really like the improvements, but I think some colors, such as Shulks hair are over saturated.
I look forward to giving my least favorite Xeno game another shot.
@mesome713 No I don't think FF7 would look that great on switch, especially when you consider how compressed it would have to be. All the special console gimmicks are pretty dumb in RPGs though. I did think the hd rumble in Octopath was neat.
@sixrings lmao. Only people I see using handhelds are generally children, so I guess anyone over 24.
@Wexter PSN gives is free games that switch owners beg to pay $60 for. How much are you guys going to pay for borderlands handsome collection? $30? We got it for free last year on PSN.
Every time Nintendo does this I just download everything. When they went after ROM site I downloaded every NES, SNES, N64, GB/GBC/GNA, and GameCube game.
Bonus is this is less than 7mb. 277 seeders on pirate bay currently.
@Heavyarms55 look at the top selling games and then also observe the power gap between its contemporaries.
There isnt even a first party controller with a decent D pad, and the internet is at mid 90s level. They might sell some fighting games, but that market is largely elsewhere.
@Heavyarms55 Nintendo is a different beast. Most people buy it for exclusives rather than as a primary system. Add to it the switch is the only handheld now.
It might just not be worth porting too. Although they could charge $60 for it.
@BenAV a bunch of games are free on PS and Xbox that people in here gladly drop $20 or even $60 on. Last year we got Borderlands 2 for free... And that Edith Fitch game...
Silly reasoning. You limit yourself to one console and this is what happens.
@Indielink my problem is there isn't anything to do with those powers. You build a town and then what? The NPCs may have more to say (except apparently during a fishing competition where they all say the same thing?) but none of it is reallying meaningful. It's like 90s PBS kids statements. Just talk to Nopons in Frontier village.
@mesome713 Agreed. It's a travesty that New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe wasn't GOTY last year.
@Indielink I've only played the GameCube one and new leaf, but the game is just so boring. Its basically the worst part of RPGs (grinding for gear and money) with no plot and the NPCs just say random things like "I love being out in the sun". The fishing isn't even a fun mini game like Link's Awakening had in 1993.
I understand some people like to stand around and talk non-sense to their villagers, but if you just exclusively hung out in any town in any RPG the experiance would be the same.
I understand some very bizzaro stuff becomes popular (just look at what's in the top 40), but it amazes me people have fun playing this game assuming they have played any other game.
@mesome713 yep. Thank God Atlus is sparing Switch owners. If only they could do the same with SMT right?
@Zenszulu No. SNES used the B and Y buttons as defacto. Hence why on N64 they moved the A button to where the B would be on a N64, and the B button is where the Y button was.
@RootsGenoa if B is select in Dark Souls, why is it a problem in the menu?
@Thaliard it probably could come to Switch if they downgraded it enough. The question is, is it worth porting to different architecture? MHW could be downgraded for Switch too, but apparently it wasn't worth it.

>I was going to pick it up but it is just a bit too cringe worthy for me.
Re: Japanese Charts: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Surpasses 4 Million Boxed Sales In Japan Alone
@Phostachio Without spoiling anything, it's going in a Xenogears like fashion, which is cool as hell.
Re: Japanese Charts: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Surpasses 4 Million Boxed Sales In Japan Alone
@TheFullAndy what's cringe worthy?
So you only buy games that sell over how many million? Lmao

Re: Video: Getting A Real Feel For Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition
The game has the red Xenogears logo in it. Maybe the Future Connected has a tie in for Xenogears?

To say that NSO is anywhere close is laughable.

Re: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Had The Third-Biggest US Launch Of Any Nintendo Game In History
@Indielink Other games have a goal and a conclusion though. AC is play it until you're bored with it.
Re: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Had The Third-Biggest US Launch Of Any Nintendo Game In History
@mesome713 But Nintendo made it the best hence the deluxe.

Re: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Had The Third-Biggest US Launch Of Any Nintendo Game In History
@mesome713 Yeah. Niche games like Xenoblade should also be multiplat. Of course that's really the only "Nintendo" game with a good story so idk.

Re: Nintendo Should Create An Apple Arcade-Style Subscription Service, Claims Analyst
I can see apple absorbing nintendo. Hardware would at least be nice. Apple and Nintendo fans are also similar.

Re: Bravely Default II Producer Has An Idea For A Third Entry, And It "Could Even Be A Smartphone Game"
@Blizzia Story was generic, combat was terrible, and yes it was repetitive.
I did like the prerendered backgrounds.
Re: Bravely Default II Producer Has An Idea For A Third Entry, And It "Could Even Be A Smartphone Game"
@MuhBael Yeah...its not.
The Bravely games were bad. Octopath was mediocre.
Re: Random: Finally, You Can Play Dark Souls On Switch The Way Nature Intended

Re: Soapbox: This Little Plastic Disc Has Enriched My Animal Crossing: New Horizons Experience
@mesome713 that's not true at all.
You should donate all of your money to Nintendo like it's scientology. Gotta make sure Nintendo makes a profit.
