I only play switch in portable mode so the dot thing doesnt sound like a problem to me. I wasnt sure what this game was about...sounds like Mario Galaxy but with Captain Toad. Thanks for the review...I'll probably get this now!
Not the best planned presentation from a company that can get away with it because they have the Midas touch right now. Wish it would have been better balanced, but hey, I have no complaints because the switch is the greatest portable system ever made, and they are cranking out hit after hit.
Great game...I played it to the point of burn out back when it came out on pc...I might buy on sale for nostalgia. If you haven't played and you love Diablo...this is for you...it's a real treat.
"Whilst the game clearly wouldn't have turned around the fortunes of Wii U, it's another example of Ubisoft making the most of the unique dual-screen setup that the Wii U offered along with best in class examples Zombi U and and Rayman Legends."
I just bought Hearts of Iron 4 on steam. Played 90 minutes of tutorial and was unable to figure out how to properly invade 1 country with a single army. I'll be going back today to slog my way through the most complicated Ww2 sim ever.
Loved the Burger Time series back in the day. I might wait for a sale though on this one. Unless they're willing to give me an upfront discount. Because, I will gladly pay them tomorrow for a burger today.
Personally not my cup of tea. Im sure there might be a niche market though for this sort of thing. But with zero input on physically controlling a character, other than do this or do that decisions, I'll pass.
Regalia sounds verrry interesting. The steam reviews are mostly positive, but some of the negatives have me concerned. Looking forward to the Switch review on this one.
Fallout franchise is simply a no brainer for the switch. Money in the bank for Bethesda. Alot of these third parties should be gratuitously thanking Nintendo for reviving interest in these ports...any good game being portable is pretty much worth buying.
The gameplay style can best be described as a mirror of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, although it doesn't quite have the same level of depth.
The real Achilles heel of this series, as has already been mentioned, is the utter lack of an original, interesting story. Id love to see the developer's next product flesh out the depth of the rpg elements just a bit more, and also hire some actual writers.
If you ask for help with your SNES, they route you to a special department which, if you could see them, you'd realize they were still wearing 90's clothing.
Then again, I wish Microsoft would focus on stability. My laptop has been stuck on a windows update from several months ago that it tries to install and fails every time I turn it on.

Re: Hands On: Getting On The Go In Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker On Switch

Re: Talking Point: What Were The Biggest Highs And Lows From E3 2018?
They were somewhere in between, which, when you consider the winning streak that nintendo is on (with possible exception of labo), is a win.

I love that they are bringing back every single fighter...and I wonder if there will be a few more surprise new characters.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's E3 2018 Went Big On Smash Bros. But Left Us Wanting More
Not the best planned presentation from a company that can get away with it because they have the Midas touch right now. Wish it would have been better balanced, but hey, I have no complaints because the switch is the greatest portable system ever made, and they are cranking out hit after hit.

Or would it have? Or. Would. It. Have.
Re: Get Ready For The World Cup With World Soccer Pinball, Shooting Onto Switch This Week
Wouldn't download if they paid me 1.99 to download
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend?
Mistakenly thought Darks Souls was out on switch yesterday...found out at Target that it was delayed. This is a hard game.
Re: Review: The Banner Saga (Switch eShop)
Ya I wish it was a bit longer than 10 hours, so a compilation may be the way to go. Looks really cool though.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend?

Re: Soapbox: How Nintendo Switch Helped Break My Crippling Obsession With Achievements
I like achievements but I dont need them. I think it'd be cool if we had achievements and portability on the switch, but I'm good either way.
Re: Hey Dood, Disgaea 1 Complete Is Coming To Switch This Autumn

The elephant in the room: true sequel to Banjo Kazoo nuts and bolts that we all want on switch.
Id even take a nuts and bolts port.
Re: Nintendo Download: 12th April (North America)
Regalia sounds verrry interesting. The steam reviews are mostly positive, but some of the negatives have me concerned. Looking forward to the Switch review on this one.
Re: Bethesda Talks Plans For Future Support On The Switch
Fallout franchise is simply a no brainer for the switch. Money in the bank for Bethesda. Alot of these third parties should be gratuitously thanking Nintendo for reviving interest in these ports...any good game being portable is pretty much worth buying.
Re: Mercenaries Saga Chronicles Will Be Marching Onto Retail With A Boxed Edition This Summer
The gameplay style can best be described as a mirror of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, although it doesn't quite have the same level of depth.
The real Achilles heel of this series, as has already been mentioned, is the utter lack of an original, interesting story. Id love to see the developer's next product flesh out the depth of the rpg elements just a bit more, and also hire some actual writers.
Re: Mega Man X Legacy Collection 1 And 2 Confirmed For Switch

Mario Tennis Aces day one.
Alot of other cool overpriced games that I'll wait for a price drop on.

Re: Nintendo Switch Version 5.0.1 Is Now Available For Download
