The good thing is that I haven’t finished P5 on my PS5, so that helps me not buy this yet. I bought too many other games this holiday season that I need to finish first.
Glad to see almost everyone else in the comments are against this. I’ve tried to avoid seeing Tencent films at the theater and games funded by Tencent.
@Smug43 I played this on Steam on my 27” monitor. How tiny does the protagonist get in it? It zoomed out way far a few times and made her super small, so I’m curious how big she was on the switch size screen in those sections.
Doom and Skyrim both came out in Switch’s first year, so how are they not discounted further? They should both be $30 normally, and down to $10 on sale.
I’m fine with the graphics of both but I’d still have to see the frame rate of the switch version when fighting many enemies for me to ever consider it on that Switch. For now, I think I’m gonna go with my Xbox Series X to play it
I think there’s a reasonable argument to be made that Microsoft will or won’t keep these Bethesda games exclusive. If they make them exclusive, they might see more Xbox console sales. If they don’t, they can always charge a premium $70+ on PlayStation consoles to make some money. I could see them taking the AAA games and making those multi platform and keep the smaller ones exclusive. I’m cool with however this shakes out tbh
@HotGoomba___Rebrand they can’t really say much — whether things will be exclusive, etc— as the deal hasn’t gone through yet. It remains in their best interest to say things that sound very neutral still
I can’t believe people play docked that much. When I first got my switch I tried it out on a tv screen for about 1 hr out of my 110 in Zelda and occasionally docked it. I still rarely dock it, but more than I did in the beginning
I wouldn’t mind if they moved away from the switch eventually, but however long we can keep things running Switch software — like how the DS still allowed you to play GBA games, or the 3DS played DS games would make me happiest.
Love this game. I’m not one to pick up random indies on day 1, but I’ve been pleasantly surprised myself. I love the different combinations of weapons and boons I’ve picked up in my dozen or so runs and expect I’ll be playing a lot more in the next few weeks
Obviously didn’t read all 120+ comments, but the ones I did were just shameless ragging on TOK— it was a great game. My favorite on switch from this year for sure!! It’s hard to know where the games are going each iteration, but if they make more as fun as TOK then I’m in
I share the family price with friends, so I think it’s worth the $5 a year. I’m happy with the content we get with NSO. I don’t often hop in there, but I’ve become accustomed to Nintendo adding new consoles each year, so I hope that we see some N64 titles. I would love to play Mario 64 or Mario Party 2.
Another disappointing direct. I can see why others might be excited, but looks like I’m waiting longer for games that will excite me. It’s okay, all the great pc games come out soon
I fear for 3rd party support, but we’ve seen a lot of indies come to the switch, so I’m anticipating that Switch will still be my place to play Nintendo exclusives and indies, but then I’ll play my big AAA games on PS5 and PC
I purchased this from the Kickstarter and love this product. I use it for my switch and my iPad and it works perfectly. One recommendation is that you check you have a long enough hdmi cable cuz some people might not have their tv/monitor close enough to their electrical socket. I bought a portable monitor and use the usb-a on the dock to power it, so I’m running both switch and monitor all from one plug
Restrictions often leave room for creativity to solve problems — just look at horror movies (usually the problem is that they have low budgets) — but this seem nonsensically restrictive.

Re: Sinnoh Confirmed: Pokémon Brilliant Diamond And Shining Pearl Officially Announced For Switch
I choose you, Cyberpunk Potato Graphics! Oof! Anyone else feel extremely underwhelmed by the visuals of this Pokémon game?
Re: Reminder: Persona 5 Strikers Launches Today On Nintendo Switch
The good thing is that I haven’t finished P5 on my PS5, so that helps me not buy this yet. I bought too many other games this holiday season that I need to finish first.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (January 30th)
Battlefront 2 and Overwatch on pc with friends. Maybe some Resident Evil 3 on PS4 in preparation for RE8

Re: Nintendo Shares New Info About Bowser's Fury Mode In Super Mario 3D World
Looking forward to this. I skipped the WiiU, so every game from it is new to me.
Re: Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury File Size Revealed
Any guesses how long Bowser’s Fury will add to the game? I’m hoping it’s more than just a 2-3 hours.
Re: Switch eShop Game Prices Can No Longer Be Below $1.99, Says Death Squared Dev
How will I know which titles are shovelware and which are discounted indies when they’re all $1.99 during sales?
Re: Random: Edge Magazine Is Teasing A "World Exclusive"
This is among my most anticipated titles of the year, up next to titles like Horizon Forbidden West, GoW Ragnarok and more.
Re: Introducing Genki: ShadowCast, The "Simplest Way" To Connect Your Switch To A Laptop
Great deal for people looking to start streaming. I have loved my Genki Dock for switch and would get this if I didn’t already have an elgato.
Re: Random: KFC Made A Console, For Some Reason
I know this will likely be a gimmicky pc, but I still want it.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (December 5th)
I finished Demon’s Souls, but I’m likely to play through it again, just quicker.
Re: Devolver Digital Cyber Sale Discounts Lots Of Switch Indie Favourites (North America)
@Smug43 I played this on Steam on my 27” monitor. How tiny does the protagonist get in it? It zoomed out way far a few times and made her super small, so I’m curious how big she was on the switch size screen in those sections.
Re: Devolver Digital Cyber Sale Discounts Lots Of Switch Indie Favourites (North America)
I’d recommend Broforce, Gato Roboto and Enter the Gungeon at those prices, but probably nothing else.
Re: Video: 11 Exciting New Games Coming To Nintendo Switch In December
I might get Wildfire as a quick metroidvania to play just before Cyberpunk 2077
Re: Review: Immortals Fenyx Rising - An Off-Brand Breath Of The Wild That's Still Worth A Look
@Chalkfire Thanks for mentioning that SwitchUp review. That makes the game seem much better than all these 7s.

Re: Video: Immortals Fenyx Rising - Switch VS PlayStation 5 Graphical Comparison
@Ryu_Niiyama it’s Ubisoft, so it won’t even take a full year for it to drop to $20
Re: Cuphead's 'Delicious Last Course' DLC Has Been Delayed Until 2021
The fact they are just stating the year 2021 and nothing more specific like “first half of 2021” makes me nervous that it’ll be late 2021 if at all.
Re: Doom Eternal For Switch Will No Longer Receive A Physical Release
My guess is that they’ll drop info soon during a Nintendo Direct with them also saying “and it’s available now!”
Re: Ubisoft Reveals Its Post-Launch DLC For Immortals Fenyx Rising
Ubisoft often charges $40 for a season pass. This one looks pretty exciting. 3 adventures for $14-ish each?

Hoping to buy one tomorrow when they go on sale in the US
Re: Rumour: Has Nintendo Accidentally Leaked Metroid: Samus Returns For Switch?
They’d need to pack in Fusion and Zero Mission to make this worth it for me
Re: Video: 11 Exciting New Games Coming To Nintendo Switch In November
I think I’m gonna be too busy with AC Valhalla and Demon’s Souls. Sure hope everyone else who wanted a new console got a preorder as well!
Re: Video: 11 Exciting New Games Coming To Nintendo Switch In November
@Heavyarms55 nothing for you at all? Or just on switch? Cuz November for Xbox, PC and especially PS4/5 will be beyond amazing
Re: Mother Is Getting Its Own Pop-Up Shops In Japan
Nintendo should absolutely remake this game with one of their fun little craft art styles.
Re: Immortals Fenyx Rising Switch eShop File Size Revealed
@zombi3wolf I thought I read that Epic was discontinuing their free games after this year.
Re: Poll: Do You Play Your Switch More In Docked Or Handheld Mode?
I can’t believe people play docked that much. When I first got my switch I tried it out on a tv screen for about 1 hr out of my 110 in Zelda and occasionally docked it. I still rarely dock it, but more than I did in the beginning

Re: Paper Mario Producer Says He's "Not Opposed To The Fans' Opinions"

Re: Reminder: You Can Now Download The Free Lite Version Of Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition
After seeing the awful reviews, I’ll pass on this game indefinitely

Re: Image & Form's New Game Required Power The Switch Didn't Have, So It Did A Deal With Xbox
I saw this one (without knowing it was an Image and Form title) during the Xbox conference and it was one of the titles that interested me most.
Re: Talking Point: So, Where Does Switch Fit Into Sony And Microsoft's Next Gen Landscape?
I fear for 3rd party support, but we’ve seen a lot of indies come to the switch, so I’m anticipating that Switch will still be my place to play Nintendo exclusives and indies, but then I’ll play my big AAA games on PS5 and PC
Re: Feature: Best Nintendo Switch 'Walking Simulators' And Narrative Games
Death Stranding is my favorite walking sim. Play it on pc or PS4
