It should be 60fps from the start, if it was given the proper attention and some fair compromises were made. This would be the preferred platform for such a game, it's a shame really!
I quite agree with the score. It's not the deepest fps, but it is fun, written with loads of humor and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg. It runs great, sure 30 fps but solid and no input lag, they added HD Rumble and motion controls and the resolution is the native in both handheld and docked. Plus, its arcadey nature fits perfectly on the system. If someone does not like fps games I get it, but I find much of the complaints non valid.
Call of Juarez is fantastic on Switch, with comic style graphics, arcadey gameplay and cheesy (the good kind) storytelling! Also, great port, plays like a charm on handheld!
Bought Call of Juarez after playing it on Steam, cause it's really fun and decently priced. Would do the same for Talos Principle if it was cheaper. For anyone that hasn't played it, it is totally worth it!
@Hordak I own the Hori switch arcade pro v hayabusa and it is the best in terms of quality parts and built.There are alternatives,but I wouldn't bother cause they are in the other side of the spectrum. If you want a cheaper alternative,you can get a six button gamepad like the 8bitdo m30 or the retrobit saturn controller.Or any fightpad for another console with an adapter for Switch.
I would love for Shovel Knight or even another knight from the series to become playable. A Microsoft game character though is likely to see representation.
I've become a fighting fan late in my gaming life. Not good at all, but having a good time playing and discovering new games! Out of curiosity, I was introduced to the Neo Geo lately and got Garou, KoF 98,Blazing Star and The Last Blade 2. Garou is amazing and The Last Blade is great too!
Very, very disappointed by them in Europe. 4 out of 4 joycons had to be repaired (2 pairs), for something that should have lasted a lifetime really, like every other Nintendo gamepad I owned on the past.
Recently got Dragon Quest XI and haven't yet finished Fire Emblem, Link's Awakening and Astral Chain. I also plan to get Red Dead Redemption 2 for PC this month!

Not to say this or the other Sega Ages games are bad or anything. It's just that Sega has such a lineup that, with the exception of Virtua Racing, the others were underwhelming.
Double dipped without a second thought. The game is amazing and Switch is my preferred platform to play such games and I felt the need to support the Nintendo-Microsoft collaboration and the wonderful job they did with the port !
That lawsuit did nothing for us in Europe. I've sent for repair both right joycons of my 2 sets, being forced to pay for something that should just work in such a small time!

Re: Feature: Game Of The Decade Staff Picks - The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt
Probably my top game ever as well. This sounds like an exaggeration to anyone who hasn't played it, but most who did, would agree!

Master Chief, with simultaneous release of Master Chief Collection on Switch!
Re: Gallery: Unboxing Samurai Shodown's Japanese Limited Edition
Will there be a physical release in Europe? Pre ordering the digital version is the only way to get the Neo Geo Pocket game?
Re: Looks Like Henry Cavill Was The Perfect Person To Play The Witcher's Geralt After All
He really nailed the part in my eyes,having played all Witcher games.I wanted Viggo Mortensen ,but Henry,well done!
Re: Random: Henry Cavill Got To Keep His Witcher Costume, But Had Issues With The Pants
After the Star Wars fiasco, I'm glad that at least The Witcher may bring balance to the force!
Re: Huge Nintendo Switch Festive Sale Sees More Than 700 Games Discounted By Up To 80% (Europe)

Re: Review: The Talos Principle: Deluxe Edition - Still A Fine First-Person Puzzler Five Years On
The game is fantastic, but since I played it on Steam, but not finished it, I'll wait for a sale.

Re: Convert Your Switch Into A Portable Arcade Unit With Gametech's Mini Arcade Stick
Cool concept,badly executed.Looks cheap,in contrast with the Switch itself.

Then go for it. It is wonderful!
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th December (Europe)
@DockEllisD
Same here. Would definitely grab the second otherwise.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (November 30th)
Fantasy Strike, Starlink and Red Dead Redemption 2.
Re: Deals: These Are The eShop Games You Should Download This Black Friday
Got Contra Collection and Fantasy Strike and loving them both!
Re: Horizon Chase Turbo Pulls Out The L Plates With Free 'Rookie Series' DLC
The Shovel Knight of racing games!
Re: 8BitDo's Zero 2 Is A Switch Controller That's Small Enough To Fit On Your Keychain
I have a soft spot for controllers and this looks cute! But they should make a Saturn controller with extra analog sticks.
Re: Just Shapes & Beats Digs Up Exclusive Shovel Knight Remixes For Free DLC
I just love it when games get over the top in such creative ways! But man, Shovel Knight, what a game!
Re: Masahiro Sakurai Reminds Us He's Still Working Hard On DLC Fighters For Smash Bros. Ultimate
I would love for Shovel Knight or even another knight from the series to become playable. A Microsoft game character though is likely to see representation.
Re: Grab A Bargain In The Switch eShop Cyber Deals Sale Starting This Friday (Europe)
Dragon Ball FighterZ is highly recommended, at this price it's a no brainer!

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (November 16th)
Picked up Garou Mark of the Wolves and having a great time with it! But having Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC leaves little time for anything else!
Re: Go Retro With The 8BitDo N30, A Wireless Mouse Inspired By The NES Controller
There are other ways to go retro, outside of Nintendo. A wireless Amiga mouse, for example, would be cool!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (November 9th)
Red Dead Redemption 2 has stolen my life. When I'm away from home, I play Dragon Quest XI on Switch!

Re: Video: Persona 5 Scramble Gets A New Trailer Introducing Joker
Stylistically,it looks great.Had a lot of fun with the Zelda/Musou spin off.If it keeps a steady framerate,I'm in!

Re: Skullgirls 2nd Encore Smashes Its Way To Switch Today With A Launch Day Trailer
@JamesJose7
Didn't notice anything weird also. You could try the M30 though, cause its only 25-30€ and they say it's great.
Re: Skullgirls 2nd Encore Smashes Its Way To Switch Today With A Launch Day Trailer
@JamesJose7
The 8bitdo SN30 pro (and other variants) has a great dpad and works well with fighters. It's also great for pretty much anything on Switch. The M30 with the 6 button layout is probably the best for fighting games though.
Re: Hardware Review: The PowerA Fusion FightPad Is Great For Retro, But Ironically Not So Good For Fighters
I recently got a Hori Hayabusa and I love it. I also have a SN30 pro but I love me a good 6 button fight pad. This unfortunately hasn't sold me, although I love the Saturn feel. M30 seems a better overall proposal.
Re: The Switch Has Now Sold More Than 15 Million Units In North America
Console quality portable gaming, this recipe is golden!
Re: Shinobi Expected To Be The Next Sega Ages Game Released In Japan
Not to say this or the other Sega Ages games are bad or anything. It's just that Sega has such a lineup that, with the exception of Virtua Racing, the others were underwhelming.
Re: Nintendo Switch Is Getting A The Witcher 3-Themed Controller
This I like! How's the Dpad? I have no need for a third controller, but I may be tempted if it's better than the official one.
Re: Castlevania's Harder Arcade Version Is Coming To Nintendo Switch Tomorrow
@LeatherCorpse
As great the first collection is, it's missing the really good games in the series. It is coming, it would be madness if it isn't!
Re: Castlevania's Harder Arcade Version Is Coming To Nintendo Switch Tomorrow
What we need are the PC Engine, PS, Gameboy Advance and DS Castlevanias in a new collection!
Re: Nintendo Reveals The Switch eShop's Most Popular Games For September 2019 (Europe)
What a lovely place the Nintendo eshop has become! I got Ori, Transistor digital and Link's Awakening physical!
Re: Review: Fight'N Rage - Who Said The Side-Scrolling Brawler Is Dead?
Those good old fashioned arcade games won't leave my wallet alone and I just got an arcade stick for the Switch!
Re: Review: Ori And The Blind Forest: Definitive Edition - An Unmissable Experience

Re: Review: Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age - Definitive Edition - A Gift That Keeps On Giving
Fell in love with the demo! Unfortunately, this will have to wait a bit, until I finish Link's Awakening and Astral Chain.
Re: Uh-Oh, We've Got Our First Reported Case Of Drift On The Switch Lite
@ElioTheWerewolf
How did you come to this conclusion?I own two sets and both right joycons had to be repaired.

Re: Bloodstained Team Shares Update On Incoming Switch Fix, But There's Still No Set Date
@suikoden
It's good that you're here to remind me what to buy. Thank you for that.
Re: Bloodstained Team Shares Update On Incoming Switch Fix, But There's Still No Set Date
Would it be possible for the game to reach 60 fps? That would tempt me for a second purchase on Switch.
Re: Restore Order When Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast Strikes Back On Switch This Month
Probably the best Star Wars game,along with Republic Commando!
