I bought my Switch at our local Shopko and their game selection was meager at best so I grabbed MK8 since I already had played the crap out of BOTW on my Wii U.
Starting with Yoshi today it would seem the proverbial floodgates have been opened, holy crap that's a lot of fantastic games coming in a short amount of time
I loved every single announcement, this year is going to be huge for Switch owners, throw in the fact that they didn't even show games like AC, Bayonnetta 3 and Luigis Mansion 3 but they're still coming this year is amazing, what a freaking lineup
@Kriven Did you really just justify your use of autism as derogatory based on the medical community?!! they are two entirely different things and neither should be used to demean others
Although I'm not exactly thrilled about the wait I'm actually happy with this development, I'd been wondering since day why the decided to shaft Retro on their own series, glad to see they came to their senses
@IHateTombs I came here to say pretty much the same thing, I'll never understand the love for this series as it is so repetitive and boring, it's only saving grace are the visuals but you'll soon be bored of that too once you realize how boring the gameplay is.
Crazy, there's another promotion released just yesterday in the news channel on the Switch, I don't own the game but it would be crazy if this event is not included in the Switch version after all of the advertising
I plan on grabbing one for Christmas, I'm a huge Nintendo fan who's never really cared for PS products but this little device looks pretty cool imo, plus most of the games will be new to me since I rode with the N64 during that era
Good looking out NL, I for one don't want anything spoiled, regardless if it's "story driven" or not i want to go in as fresh as possible. Plus, there is a whole new big ass mode dedicated to story that yeah, I really don't want spoiled
@Dang3rdomo22 How do you figure? Literally everything has been built from the ground up, insane amount of new characters and modes, of course it's going to have the same base gameplay or else it wouldn't be Smash anymore, I really can't see where you're coming from- honestly at this point 60 seems like we're robbing the developers
This direct floored me honestly, Smash has become this absolutely massive love letter to not just Nintendo fans but the industry as a whole, there is literally nothing else like it in the market, it's quite impressive the amount of polish and content this game has crammed in there, I'm hyped
Honestly I'm loving all the retro releases on Switch, so far I actually like them beyter than the old virtual console and that includes the new Nes app
Looks like exactly what I was hoping for, the amount of polished modes looks insane, that hub world looks sick and playing classic style MP with my 4 person family is going to be great!
@Crono1973 Its actually very special when you can play Doom Eternal and Smash Ultimate on the go, without some crappy streaming tactic, just full console experiences, why dies this not impress you? It's NEVER been done...
