The weird thing is, NSMBU uses the D-pad prominently. (You can use the sticks, but there's no point unless you're playing with a single Joy-Con.) So... how's the guy even supposed to do this totally infallible test?

Minecraft: the game that may yet achieve world peace.

... Among gamers, at least.

Latin American translation?

Ahora si estamos hablando! Que sea Marzo ya!

@mrmememan Why not? As a seasoned gamer, I say we should respect and appreciate our friends from other platforms. Of course, without losing the plot of this being a Nintendo-centric website.

@psoneboi There will still be an overlap period where games will still be released on PS4 and Xbox One. They won't just dump such a large userbase overnight. Switch could benefit from that overlap.

This stands as yet another proof that with the proper smart nips and tucks, any current game can be ported to Switch, and quite well at that.

Meanwhile I'll keep enjoying DQ11 as I go to and from work. It really helps melt those hours away.

Oh, where do I begin?

NES: Couldn't get those darn carts to read properly. My brother battled to make the thing work!

SNES: For some reason, EVERY SNES controller we bought had shoulder button issues. We played a lot of fighting games, so that might be a contributing factor.

N64: Analog stick. Do I need to say more?

GameCube: The fan died on me after 3+ years of faithful service. The overheat basically killed my console and I had to get another one.

Game Boy: Dead pixels are so annoying in a screen like that, let me tell you.

GBA: The shoulder buttons strike again! I also feel the GBA shoulder buttons were quite flimsy in general.

DS: Both my Phat and Lite DS suffered from a flimsy hinge.

3DS: My (A) and (L) buttons malfunctioned. Curiously, this is the reason I learned to play Smash with the custom configuration I use today.

New 3DS: The (ZR) button decided to malfunction. and that was a doozy because it was constantly pressing down, with meant the menu constantly scrolled to the right, and ANY game that used the ZR button was unplayable. Had to get another N3DS after that.

Switch: I think you all know.

Well, guys, I'll see you all in Splatoon 3: Fury Road!

So HBO is now the new "gandpa who doesn't know what gaming is"? You know, the one who gets you an old sports game for the PS3 and an Xbox controller when you clearly told them you have a Switch.

A 1 minute, 50 second video... could not fit in 1.4 GB.

Hell, even if we're being generous with SEGA and the 8GB card only really fits 7.4 GB, We're still talking about 800 MB of free space.

But wait, we can be even MORE generous! What if Nintendo is forcing all current Switch games to have some space reserved for system updates over the card or some other stuff? Honestly, I wouldn't see them hogging more than 200 MB for that. That still leaves SEGA with 600 MB.

less than 2 minutes of 1080p video can cetainly fit within 600 MB. And considering that TSR is probably not 1080p, they could shrink it down further to match the game resolution, making the video file smaller.

In short, no excuse from SEGA here. The only viable explanation would be that they ran out of time and could not put the video in on time, or had to choose between working the video in or doing some bug testing or polish or something like that.

@Heavyarms55 One could treat it like a demo. Play it, see if it interests them, and if so, buy the full version. If not, not much is lost.

I'd like to point out how stable and awesome the online experience is, even at relatively low internet speeds. I've used some crappy internet and have yet to experience a disconnect or an instance of lag.

I trust Id to make a kick-ass game. And I trust Panic Button to make a superlative port.

But can I trust Bethesda? After seeing how poorly they're handling Fallout 76, I don't know if I want to support them anymore. But the conundrum is that if I don't support Bethesda, then by proxy I'm not supporting Id and I'm not supporting Panic Button's port.

Oh, bother. What to do?

Let me grab my grains of salt from the pile...

But If it is Erdrick, then it's a good retro choice IMO. Not the most recognizable Dragon Quest character (I'd presume the protagonist of DQ8 is more well known), but still a good choice.

@MushHill_Act1-1 It is bad that I read that in Ryan Reynolds' voice?

So let me get this straight: Oracle of Seasons is discounted... but not Oracle of Ages?

Seriously, Nintendo?

It truly does stink that Sony couldn't be bothered to make a higher quality product. I would've been more than happy to drop $100 on a PS Classic that had quality emulations of many high profile games. Also, what was the deal with not including DualShock controllers? Games like MGS and RR4 would've gotten much use from them.

If (IF!) Sony releases a second PS Classic with DualShock controllers, a better emulator and more games that people actually want (Rainbow Six? Really, guys?), I would consider buying that. This one? Hard pass.

Yes! Yes! All of my yes! I loved Celeste and I'm seriously considering buying Towerfall (if it had online it would be perfect). I'd buy a Celeste Maker, but if it turns out to be a full-on sequel, I might just froth at the mouth in excitement.

@edgedino Yeah. But I'm not exactly a collector. Also, I ended up buying a Switch game that was heavily, HEAVILY discounted, so I don't regret my decision.

Cool. I was eyeing a Wii U copy during Toys R Us's final days, but I never pulled the trigger. (Not having a Wii U didn't help.) With this and Freedom Planet, I'm going to have a blast.

I think at this point we can safely assume the handheld versions are cancelled. The game ran poorly on Wii U, they've been silent about these handheld versions for a year, the Vita is all but dead and the 3DS isn't exactly making waves... All that's left is to admit that it's cancelled. I mean, is anyone REALLY waiting anxiously for these releases?

Dammit! I literally just bought Child of Light on the Steam Summer Sale!

Oh, well. It was at a good price, so I shouldn't be complaining.

I got "I Am Setsuna" instead. It's 50% off ($20 USD), and I wasn't sure about Lost Sphear from the demo. Perhaps during another sale.

I loved this game on 3DS. I would love to play this on the big screen, though, and if the price is right, I might just double dip.

$20 USD? WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU, WAYFORWARD?!?

Region free is a wonderful, wonderful thing.

Noice.

Also, I'm glad to see Nier Automata and Cuphead get some love.

Finally! The AAA third party support the Switch deserves!
