Compared to other games in series this one is especially slow and clumsy by todays standards. Weird choice to put this on Switch. Also the 35 euro price tag is travesty.
Having played first one on Xbox 360, more important is that Blighttown framerate is now stable and playable. Region was total nightmare with constant fps drops below 20.
I`m still interested of buying Switch (because Nintendo exclusives - you cannot deny quality) but all those prices (games as well as accessories) are just too much for me. Even if I can afford the console everything else seems like a huge sinkhole for my hard earned money. More bang for your buck somewhere else, cheaper somewhere else, also already out earlier somewhere else.
One serious problem for 3rd party developers is that poor 32GB of storage. Modern day patches are often huge and lots of games recieve big updates right on launch day. And then there is of course DLC. Do we even know how much of that 32GB is available for use and how much goes to operating system?
Im on board of hype train of course, but im cautiously optimistic. What I think Nintendo should do with NX three minutes is info, info, info. No filler, only details on system and launch games. If they only show logo or delay console again (and probably Zelda with it) fan dissapointment will be mountain high.
There lies important question. NX is coming out in march 2017 as we know, after 6 months now. So why NX is still mystery for many developers? Is it just secret well kept or should we be little bit worried. I absolutely want to NX to succeed, i`m just worried, it might suffer without proper third party support.
Even if that Zelda presentation will be kick-ass and great to the maximum, this is still not enough. Also, how big exactly is this game, when they plan to show it all day long? My guess is they will dissect every little bit and mechanic. 12 hours of continuous gameplay of a game that is still 10 months or maybe even more away might also be hype killer.
I'm interested and for 10 euros/pounds its almost instabuy for me. And yes, Wii U with its touch screen controller seems like the perfect platform for point and click adventures.
Yes, Nintendo has right to protect their IPs, cannot argue with that. But this kind of protection is just unwise in the modern world, in online media, in modern gaming. If youtubers backed with millions subscribers point middle finger to Nintendo, then lots of those subrscribers reflect this. This kind of negative image of public opinion goes viral as fast as any advertising. Rules are changing, gamers are changing, Nintendo still wants to play by the old rules and at the same point they hit the wall. Hopefully it happens before its too late for this wonderful company.
I feel like I must be only one, who does not have any amiibos. None! Zero. Still, cannot argue how darn good they look, especially these Yoshis. Anyone knows are they standard size or bigger?
Bravely Default was fantastic until chapter 5 destroyed it for me totally. I dont mind little bit grinding and difficulty spikes here and there, but recycling of content and story is just dissapointing.
Usually i support quantity when talking about digital games (more choice makes happier gamer) but in cases like this i tend to shut up. If game is broken or cheap cashgrab (like this seems to be) then it does not deserve its place in market.

Re: Sharpen Your Blades Because Titan Quest Is Coming To Switch Soon
Huge ARPG with tons of replay value - whats not to like. One more reason to own Switch. Its encouraging to see all that third party support.

Good news! Finally reason to spend some of those dusty gold points.
Re: Talking Point: What Approach Should Nintendo Take With Its NX Reveal?
Revealing new console is highly important step for Nintendo so I guess it`s either press event or Direct. It goes viral in one way or another.

Re: Captain Toad And Super Mario 3D World Are Joining The Nintendo Selects Range In Europe Soon
