I have a portable version on vita and it plays a good game of footy, so I can't see why this version would be pants, it should play like footy and that's what you need for this game been portable, didn't stop the vita version been a decent game just because it didn't have all the whistle and bells shenanigans. Though motion controls could ruin the game, they don't belong on a footy game, good luck to it though
@JaxonH Like yourself, I have been reading comments many months now but I didn't care much about it but after having many great chats with you, I find this out of charachter for you or maybe this is you, afterall I remember you blowing up about MH, which was probably to be expected because of your passion for this game. Yep I didn't expect you to react to somebody's comments like this, though he isn't always right but he isn't always wrong either, i actually like the guy for many things, just like most ppl on here
@JaxonH Lol your the one keeping it going from yesterday, just go back and read your comments, and you still carry it on after your comment to me, we know who you are on about, yep give it a rest. I did used to like chatting with you, hmm did
@masterLEON Yep, i owned it on wii u. The hide mechanic is just another cover system that's expanded on. I mentioned paintball games just as a reminder that there are games out there that use paint, also games like The unfinished Swan uses splatter paint everywhere, though it's nothing like this, it's a first person shooting adventure. Hey I remember marathon and blood plus many others like shadow warrior, MSDOS, I still play original doom and love a bit of Duke Nukem, I have the megaton edition on vita that I play now and then, yeah love the old games, now that's when many games were original, just maybe I have seen it all and want something new and not just revised editions of games. Going back to sales, I didn't say Splatoon wouldn't sell because it clearly did, not sure about those numbers you said, afterall vgacharts is never right, they have the wii u at 13.9 million so far but Nintendo said themselves they only shipped 13.5 before discontinued, it's the same for vita, they have it at a 3 hundred thousand less than the very reliable mediacreate numbers, yep vgacharts can't be trusted at all but I am sure Splatoon sold many millions and number 2 will sell more than the first, also been the first shooter to hit the switch will also help it
@deucezulu22
It's a TPS no matter how you look at it, regardless if it's life looking or cartoonist. Actually it takes some inspiration from 3ds version off kid icarus, well the campaign mode is just a TPS platforms game, no different from rachet and clank in that respect, and paintball games have been around long before this game. It just borrows from other games, I guess I am trying to say it ain't special, it's just another shooter. Having played the original that's my conclusion
Hmm a shooter, going by the cod article, I wouldn't have thought anyone would want this, afterall it's just a TPS, just like the rest really with different makeup.
Judging by a lot of comments on here, if 3Rd party devs were reading them, they would and are better off giving the switch a wide berth. What a bunch of cry babies, you don't deserve 3rd party games, this article is very poisonous.. Get over yourselves and go play hide and seek with mario and friends, now there's a game for ya
Well that's what happens when you try to put something on inferior technical hardware to the ones it's already on, looks like if they do manage to bring it to switch, it will be a gimped port, good on them for trying though
@JaxonH
No need to get your knickers in a twist, chill, I said I read your comment wrong. Off course there Japan only until stated otherwise, no problem but you did imply that it was a Japan only switch game, no mention of other hardware getting it, made it sound like a exclusive, that's where the mix up happened, using the term Japan only switch title.i am sure you can see how there was a mix up. Would have sounded better saying Japan only multiplatform titles
Not sure how it plays, but it looks absolutely crap like a old Atari game from the 70s, probably plays just as bad, not for me for sure, more bloody platforming
@JaxonH
It's neither western or Japan onlyfor switch, you called it Japan only switch titles, in Japan it's also ps4 and vita, it was announced a long time ago for them.. Lol I think I read your comment wrong, man I am so tired from long shifts, need to rest I think
@JaxonH Nah bud it's not switch only, it's also coming to PS4. Also psvita in Japan with a western release date later, you know I love Japanese games but the problem with Koei is they release so many games that only 1 in 10 are probably worth playing, same with NIS, I should know i probably buy more than most ppl, usually about ten games a month give or take a few, and all Japanese games
@Equinox
Hmm probably not, the vita is constantly getting niche Japanese games almost every week, why would ppl buy a switch to get them when they can play them on their vita, most of the niche games are already on vita that switch is getting, for example umbral star and one piece unlimited world red. Don't get me wrong, many Japanese games will come to switch just like they did on 3ds but many ppl won't jump to switch just to play these games, there are many platforms that have Japanese games like ps4 and steam. There are 2 new Japanese games out tomorrow in the West on vita, valkirye revolution and Tokyo xanadu
Well that's a new low for switch hardware, lowest numbers yet. PS4 family highest selling and that says it all, especially with the Japanese preferring handhelds. Crap software sales aswell on all hardware, can't believe Minecraft vita has sold so much though and still selling after more than 2 years of almost constantly been in the charts
Not much of a list, Japanese aren't exactly huge on racing games, obviously they would choose a MK. I would like to see the poll done in USA and EUROPE, mario karts are great games but it wouldn't top the polls here
Hmm this collection of games are all on the megadrive collection you can download on vita, actually it has 20 games on it costing 30pence each for the full games, no need to bother with this mobile stuff
@Switch81tch Yep, i see where your coming from. Plenty 3rd party even if they are low budget, I feel the same way about my Vita and just like vita the switch will also get plenty 3Rd party support from Japanese publishers. So yeah I don't worry about what others think I am happy with my lot
@kobashi100
Yep one version but it's better than none. Switch probably will only get one aswell, pes might make it but Japan only I would have thought, just like the Vita versions of pes, konami released about 5 games for vita in the West but never a pes
@Ichiban Lol, that just about sums up Nintendo life for ya, one minute they hate Ubisoft and BOOM a game is announced and then they become best publishers ever, same for EA, konami, Capcom plus others but especially capcom due to mh issue, problem with switch owners they think it's their God given right to have most games on it, but when a game isn't coming they throw their toys on the floor in a tantrum, I like some Ninty games but hate more than I like, so that's why I buy multiple hardware
Well i don't think cross-play is a big deal, never stopped games from been released before, also it ain't a THING yet and probably won't be. Switch probably won't get many games that use it anyhow, maybe Ninty can release all their top games on other systems and have cross-play, yep can't see that happening. I don't buy games thinking I can play against other players on different hardware nor do I care and let's face it ps4 don't need it not with the size of its userbase and still growing
Best thing Sony could do is off-load everything apart from their gaming division, to many eggs in one basket, many have cracked. Also spending so much on pushing VR, which I personally think will do worse than Vita will cost them, difference is vita makes them money and VR won't, not this gen
Problem with indie games, most are crap, only once in a while a gem is released. Switch just like all other hardware will have a ton of crap on it eventualy
@MsgBoardGamer But you can play vita games on your TV thanks to pstv, though it's a pain to do so, but yes I know I was only joking with ya, there is no denying that ps4 can be played on the go though
@UK-Nintendo
Can't see how really when the vita does everything the psp can, oh and Vita plays all psp games, it's a great hack. Hackers are developing a DS emulator, it's still in progress, the vita screen is split in two, psp can't do that without a touch screen, but yeah psp was a great emulation machine and original God, but now vita took its crown
@rockodoodle It would normally be a slow time in March but not when new hardware is involved, that slow month don't count then. Also switch wasn't fighting other companies like they would have done at Christmas time for people's money, Ninty had it all to themselves, I have no doubt switch wouldn't have sold as much as it did in March, it was a good move by Ninty. At Christmas competing against ps4, xbox, 3ds, phones I Phone and Samsung in particular plus Tablets Ninty would have struggled for consumers attention, obviously Ninty thought the same that's why they released in March, they didn't just pluck a date out of a hat draw, it was carefully planned, they could have waited but they needed space where switch could shine best and a good thing with E3 around the corner
@Leostacks
I wouldn't say Japanese take to their home systems and certainly not of late, vita has sold 5.650 million so far and still selling I may add and Wii U is stuck at 3.3million, this isn't great but like you said vita sales are OK, it will probably reach 7 million ish. Xbox did OK with 360, it sold over 1.7 million, all the sales figures are from mediacreate, I think Microsoft would have been happy with those sales, especially compared to original xbox and Xbox one. Yep that's why I own a vita because it's niche, I love Japanese games and Vita is the best place to go to for them
@timson72
There was a article on here yesterday, can't remember it's name, but many people from different country's were saying how switch was readily available, there was Mexico, Italy, Austria, Australia, Canada plus others, so yeah it's not a global shortage. Just remembered the article was 2 days ago, it's about Ninty apologies for short supply
It's also tracking behind 3ds sales and said machine didn't even have zelda or mario kart so near launch. Switch will never get the casual market wii got and sales will drop once most Ninty fans have bought it,
Prime 4 should have been on wii u way back in its life, if it had then it would have already been ported to switch and the announcement at E3 should have been prime 5. Hmm they turned down a wii u metroid pitch but thought it was a great idea to release AC Amiibo Festival instead I can just see all wii u owners giving Ninty a golden handshake for that decision, NOT
