@Teksetter Devs said that they’re definitely releasing it physically, my guess is it’ll show up a few months after release. I won’t be buying it digitally at launch for that reason. Patience!

Same discounts here. Not news…

Already preordered my physical copy. Blasphemous is one of my favorite modern metroidvaniasoulslikes (yup), such an amazing, weird, creepy, and challenging game. I fully expect this to be more of the same, but that is A-okay when the “the same” is an absolutely incredible experience.
Punish me, baby!! ♟️⚰️💔

Based on completing the demo, and then restarting with a new character, it’s a 10/10 for me. Such a joyful game, relaxing but also challenging in just the right way. Performance is great, new graphics look awesome, just a fantastic game all around. Special shout-out to the folks naming the treasures…
skateboard = “personal injury device” lol amazing!! 🥰

Leon with that knife parry for the win!

I just want that Breath of the Wild Guardian Amiibo!!! Hoping it makes the cut. Wouldn’t mind grabbing Samus, Olimar, and Cloud either…

Making instruction, or follow directions, “game-like” is a progressive, high-level teacher move. Major props to these intelligent and fun Japanese parents!

I don’t mind a more relaxed, slightly less challenging adventure! These days this is becoming more and more what I need. So many challenging, action-packed, gory adventures happening on my PS5 that I just burn out on because I feel stressed playing. Amazing games, but just too stressful…
Yup, relaxing sounds like what I need!

Silent Hill is great, but all I want for Christmas on my Switch is Xenogears.

@GameOtaku I’m with you, I wish Xenogears would be at the very LEAST ported in some fashion to modern consoles—I don’t care which!! One of my all time favorite RPG’s, lost to the annals of history… 😢

Japan gets amazing figures, bath bombs, and other fun stuff, and we get… stickers…

Mega Man Legends 3 using REngine!!!
DO IT CAPCOM!!!

It’s definitely time for a new Mega Man game. I’s love to see the series tackle the metroidvania genre, and produce a game where we explore a large, interconnected world, broken into the usual biomes, collecting powers that increase the arsenal, but also add additional movement abilities. It’s a genre that’s currently a bit oversaturated, but we’ve not seen it done Mega Man style before (that I’m aware of), and it could be a truly amazing experience. Hollow Knight, but MEGA MAN!!!

Pikmin was a game I just never got around too, despite how interesting it always looked to me. Played the demo for 3 and enjoyed it a lot. Just finished the demo for 4 last night, and absolutely loved it. I enjoyed the new gear and upgrade elements, and the dog adds a fun extra layer. The graphics look really nice too, and it performs well overall. I can see everyone’s complaints about the handholding and excessive dialogue, but I’m sure that will drop off once everything is introduced. I already preordered a while ago, but as a first-time Pikmin plugin I am beyond excited. I think I need to play 1 to warm up before July 21!

Haven’t finished the demo, but really enjoyed what I played. I wish the character creator was more robust, but not the end of the world. The new camera is great, and the graphics look gorgeous. Overall I was happy with what I played. Excited to finish the demo later!

PS—you can press + through literally all the dialogue and cutscenes if you so choose, and extend your demo playtime. 😉

Downloading now—excited to see how it performs! Hopefully solid… 🤞🏼

Sub-Zero would make sense bc he could use his freeze attacks; would make for a fun character to play. And no harpooning other players…
Obviously, there would be no fatalities… (unless you put the super-secret code in 🤫)

This is good news! Can’t wait for this new console to launch. I absolutely love my OLED Switch, but my body is ready for Switch 2! 🔥🔥🔥

Stop-motion is the coolest! This could be really special.

Sounds like a 99% confirmation that eshop/account services are transferring to the new system. Hopefully physical cartridges will follow. Nintendo Switch 2, baby! Fingers crossed!

@JimNorman That’s awesome news! Thank you for responding! 😁

@jimnorman Thanks for the great preview! How was performance during your playtime? I know many of us are concerned with the use of Unreal Engine this time around… Thanks!

I absolutely loved this game as a kid. I remember it being oddly dark, and a more mysterious Mario game for a different kind of gamer. Not sure if this new art style captures that same energy for me, but I’m still excited to see it happening. Kind of makes me just want to play it again on the SNES mini that I already own tbh… Still VERY exciting though!! 🔥🍄

I want that Guardian Amiibo!
The huge reprint in MyNintendo UK was hard to watch, with nothing happening in the US. I don’t get it… Hoping a US reprint of all those BotW Amiibos is imminent…

Killer7 Remaster please 🤞🏼🫨👍🏼
Capcom and Grasshopper absolutely need to put this on Switch so we can play with pointer controls!!

She would be fantastic. Plaza is a powerhouse comedic actor, and could definitely make us laugh as a villain.

@jimnorman Do you know what other retailers are pre-ordering? US customer here… Thanks!

I’ve committed myself to finally finishing BotW before TotK (and I have a WAYS to go)… Am I crazy??? Hard to see that Tears copy unopened on my shelf, beckoning me! lol
Also need to finish Resident Evil 4 (Remake) and Dead Space (Remake). And Elden Ring…
Sensing a theme here…

Nice! I’ve always wanted to play this; looks like a quality retro-inspired souls-like. Will definitely pick this up.

I hope they reissue these in the US too… I’d love to snag that Guardian, and the Archer Link!
I really don’t want to support scalpers…

Which button can you press to add a headphone jack?
I bought a PowerA Enhanced controller (wired, no-gyro/rumble) for $27 and it works beautifully. Nintendo can keep their $70 drifting headphone-jack-less monstrosity.

At least it’s a SMOOTH 20fps! lol

Kind of shocking they can’t get 60fps on Switch. This is an old game, with pretty basic graphics. I guess there’s just too much sh*t on screen lol

Waiting on game + Amiibo to arrive today!! Woo-hoo!!

Edit: The Amiibo is GORGEOUS! Already one of my favorites. 🤩

Where make bathroom? 🤔

Looks fantastic. Seems like lots of variety in the gameplay, and the environments look nice.

@RetroGames I feel so safe and cozy, like a safe cozy hug under a blanket (with farts)

Absolutely 1000% YES

@RetroGames Thanks for your really super-respectful opinion on one of my favorite movies… 🤮 Sorry you don’t like the movies, but no need to insult peoples’ taste

This game was a huge disappointment. I’ve tried several times to get into it with the physical copy I bought, but I just don’t like playing it. Besides all the performance issues, the combat just isn’t fun. It’s a shame, because it has a lot of potential.

That 5/10 is still keeping me from getting anywhere close to buying this game, despite how good it looks in stills. Anyone have updated thoughts on this after a few patches? Were there any patches?

Are the controls for horseback riding better? Please tell me the controls for horseback riding are better. After the release of Elden Ring and its amazing double-jumping horsey-thing, Legend of Zelda needs to get its act together. 😑

Ah, ah, ah… You didn’t say the magic word! ☝🏼

Very nice! But are they going to get sued by Nintendo? Asking for a friend… 🙄

Blasphemous II looks a little too similar to the first game; was hoping they’d experiment and push the formula a bit more… I’m sure it’ll be solid fun, but still a little disappointing.

Where the Freddy Mercury is Silksong?!

Ordered this morning, and my order was cancelled 3 hours later because reasons. This company is awful and should not be supported—I need to work on my self-restraint… 😑

Close to finishing Metroid Prime, enjoying it SO MUCH. They did an amazing job remastering this game; feels like playing it for the first time. Top 5 Switch game

I will NEVER forget the 1993 live-action Mario; so weird and enjoyable despite its MANY flaws. Literally unforgettable!

I heard that if you watch the Super Mario Bros. Movie with the sound off and play Dark Side of the Moon, Candyman shows up behind you and roasts you with a fire flower. #facts

Wow, this looks amazing! Beautiful, disturbing, and intriguing!

I’ve bought several games I never would have given a second thought to bc of demos. I would love if ALL developers did it for their games!
