I wish I could just buy the first Hotline Miami, instead of having to buy the whole collection. Don't really care to spend the money on both games, because I doubt I will ever play the sequel again. The first one is amazing though.
@retro_player_22 What did you think of Onimusha? I love the original RE games, and that type of game in general. I also played the hell out of the first Dino Crisis and Silent Hill. I never played Onimusha though and I've been thinking about trying it out. Haven't been able to decide though.
I have not subscribed, and really see not reason to at this point. Cloud saves (which should not be behind a pay wall to begin with) and two 35 year old games a month is not enough for me to pay for another monthly/yearly service.
I have never finished a FF game, but I really want to try either X or XII on switch. I have really only gotten into JRPG's in the last couple of years though. I've tried playing FFVII, but just could not get into it. I'm hoping one of these will hold my attention.
The artwork alone is worth the price for me. I spend almost as much money for a movie ticket, so I don't mind the price at all. Especially if it delivers an emotional experience that sticks with me.
And unlike a movie ticket I will be able to go back and play this any time I want. Instead of having to buy it again, to have that privilege.
Reminds me of playing through Silent Hill for the first time. That game scared the hell out of me, and I loved every second of it. I may have to check this out, if only for the nostalgia hit.
@jhewitt3476 Yeah the boxart is not great, but reminds me of playing the game as a kid. Mega Man 2 was one of my first video games. Brings back good memories.
I am so ready for more games like this to start showing up on switch. I love turn based action like this. I'm still holding out hope Firaxis will port XCOM one of these days.
I've played the demo, but can't decide if I want to buy the game. Can anyone who played the first game, give an indication of how hard the battles get? I'm hoping for a challenge strategy wise, but the early missions are really just tutorials and don't give a good idea of how challenging the meat of the game will be.
I'm having a hard time getting behind procedurally generated games like this. I've given some a shot, and I do plan on checking out Dead Cells when it comes to Switch, but I think I would rather just buy one of the Mega Man collections than play this.
@Action51 For me it isn't about them getting it 100% right. As an early adopter, I expect issues. Every system has them. It is just the way Nintendo has handled it. It took them way too long to come out and admit there could be an issue and say they are looking into it. Instead they issued some guidelines that basically told me that in order for my left joycon to work properly I had to cut the power to my home.
Obviously I'm being hyperbolic, but those troubleshooting guidelines were pretty ridiculous.

Re: Hands On: Overland Is A Game Where You Can't Always Save The Dog
This just got my attention. Into the Breach is one of my favorite games of the last few years. Can't wait to give this a shot.

Re: Review: Super Robot Wars T - Enjoyable Tactical Mecha Goodness For Returning Fans And Newcomers Alike
Can I buy this digitally with a Japanese account?
Re: Here's The Full Lineup For Castlevania Anniversary Collection On Switch
I will definitely pick this up. I'm disappointed that Rondo isn't on there, but Super Castlevania IV and Bloodlines will be worth the purchase alone.

This looks really cool. I will definitely keep an eye on this one.
Re: N64 Classics Turok And Turok 2 Are Headed To Nintendo Switch

Re: Want Resident Evil On Your Switch? You'd Better Have Deep Pockets
Looks like I'll just play RE4 and REmake on PS4 if I want to play them. I'm not paying double the price just because it is on Switch.
Re: Skybound And Beamdog Bring Six Classic Dungeons & Dragons Games To Switch In 2019
I will probably buy BGII and Planescape Torment as long as they don't try to charge $30 a piece.

I have never finished a FF game, but I really want to try either X or XII on switch. I have really only gotten into JRPG's in the last couple of years though. I've tried playing FFVII, but just could not get into it. I'm hoping one of these will hold my attention.
Re: Oniken: Unstoppable Edition And Odallus: The Dark Call Are Both Coming To Switch In One Retro Package
I will definitely play Odallus. I love the dark tone and atmosphere of the trailer. Looks like of like a Castelvania game.
Oniken I'm not as interested in but, it I love Odallus, I might check it out too.
Re: Review: Gris - A Deeply Affecting Piece Of Interactive Art That Is Utterly Essential, Despite Its Brevity

Re: The Dream's Over Folks, Nintendo Confirms There Are "No Plans" For Zelda: Skyward Sword On Switch
I would settle for Wind Waker. In fact I would prefer it. That or the Metroid Prime Trilogy. Or Super Mario Galaxy 2.

Re: Soapbox: Why I'm Not Excited About Playing NES Games On The Nintendo Switch
Speak with your money. The service is weak, and giving me games that I've played a million times is not going to cover up that fact.

Re: Nintendo Talks Maintaining Momentum And More Announcements Coming This Year
@westman98 I would love for the Metroid Prime Trilogy to be announced along with Wind Waker HD for Switch. I would definitely buy both of those.
Re: Nintendo Talks Maintaining Momentum And More Announcements Coming This Year
As someone who isn't into Smash or Pokemon, I was really disappointed in they E3 presentation. Just wasn't really much for me there.
Re: Review: 20XX (Switch eShop)
@TheGameTutor I hope so. I have almost grabbed it on Steam a few times, but I've been able to hold out for Switch.

This looks cool. I really like the art style and more modern setting. Will definitely be keeping my eye on this one.
