@TheFullAndy 3DS has 6 SMTs and 2 Persona Q games. We’ve been waiting for the Switch SMT title for soooo long with nothing shown since the initial trailer.
@TheFullAndy Persona is a spin-off of the mainline Shin Megami Tensei series. It would be great for both lines of games to be in one place. Maybe one day.
3DS had so many SMT games (mostly enhanced ports), and I wish Switch got the same kind of attention from Atlus.
@ItsOKToBeOK Sony came out with the sales numbers today. The Last of Us 2 debuted with 4 million copies sold in the first week, beating Spider-Man as the fastest selling PS4 title.
The Last of Us 2 rules and it’s good to see the smear campaigns didn’t hurt it.
My friends and coworkers are enjoying the game, and none of them even seemed to be aware that there is any negativity surrounding it online. This past week has been a nice reminder to me that the internet is very different from the real world.
@blackknight77 Is it? I have it on PS3 and Vita (it was free on Plus forever ago), and I never really gave it much play. Would I be better off just playing that than this version?
@somebread Because he’s the only YouTuber I know of who will drop everything to obsessively research a niche subject like “who does the Super Monkey Ball voiceover work?” and “where did the Hatsune Miku Dominos app go?!” He gets the weird scoops because he puts in the work.
His videos are probably my favorite thing about YouTube honestly. Except his Brick-Meiser weirdness. He can keep those, haha.
Since the Switch doesn’t have a disc drive, it doesn’t really matter to me. I ignore the card slot and I use my Switch as a 100% digital machine already.
Nearly perfect collection. It just needs Extreme 2 and Infinity Gene. And Space Invaders vs Arkanoid should just be natively included - that game rules.
@geni53yr7 A lot of us “older” gamers (I’m not that old - I’m 32 - but I’m certainly not a teenager) that grew up with physical game collections are all-in on digital now because we don’t want mountains of stuff anymore.
I’m all digital on games, mostly digital on comics, and many other things. Most of my friends are the same way. “Ownership” is a vague thing, but at least my 40+ Switch games don’t take up space.
I bought this game for like $30 back in 2008. It’s a wonderful game - it’s one of my favorite racing games ever. But I bought it for $30 literally 12 years ago.
It shouldn’t be $50.
(Also, this very same Remastered version is frequently on sale for $8 on PS4. If you want it, get it there!)
@TobiasAmaranth I’m just about done Murder By Numbers and I’m absolutely loving it.
Sure, the puzzles aren’t as hard as they could be - I definitely complete them faster than I generally do in a Picross game - but I’m still very much enjoying it.
@SkullDragr I can totally understand burning out after playing that much in 4 days. Animal Crossing games are best played in 30-60 minute sessions in my opinion.
I know some people play them longer, but I have fun just popping in for a bit every day. I’ve already played my hour today, so now I’m off to other things.

Whaaaaat? I didn’t expect this one.

19 out of 21. Nice.

Re: Nintendo Appears To Be Dropping The 3DS From Its HackerOne Bug Bounty Program
@KillerBOB Uh, no. If you found a potential hack or exploit, you would be paid for alerting Nintendo about it.
Lots of tech companies do this. Strangely, Sony just started a similar program on PS4. Kinda late in its lifespan for that, haha.
Re: Japanese Charts: Nintendo Takes Nine Of Top Ten As The Last Of Us 2 Topples Animal Crossing
@ItsOKToBeOK I’m not surprised that so many Switch games rank above it. Switch tears up the charts every week.
It’s good to see Nintendo absolutely killin’ it again.

@ItsOKToBeOK Sony came out with the sales numbers today. The Last of Us 2 debuted with 4 million copies sold in the first week, beating Spider-Man as the fastest selling PS4 title.
Pretty impressive stuff.
Re: Japanese Charts: Nintendo Takes Nine Of Top Ten As The Last Of Us 2 Topples Animal Crossing
@Paraka Showing that Sony Pictures paid for reviews 20 years ago proves that Sony’s gaming division paid for reviews today how exactly?
Re: Japanese Charts: Nintendo Takes Nine Of Top Ten As The Last Of Us 2 Topples Animal Crossing
@Paraka If ND buying review scores has been proven, do you wanna share your source with the rest of us?
“They paid for these scores” is always the rallying cry of those who don’t enjoy a critically popular thing.

Re: Bloodstained: Curse Of The Moon 2 To Bring 8-Bit Castlevania Vibes To Switch "Soon"
Yessssss. I haven’t even played the regular Bloodstained yet, but I loved Curse of the Moon.
Re: Mini Review: Pokémon Smile - You've Gotta Brush 'Em All
“Mee-outh, that’s white” is one of your best puns yet, haha.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (June 20th)
Taking a break from Xenoblade Chronicles to play The Last of Us Part II.
It’s amazing.
Re: Hail To The King, Baby - Duke Nukem 3D Is Coming To Switch This Month
@blackknight77 Cool. The version I have is Megaton Edition, and I barely played it. I think it’s time for me to actually jump in, haha.

@blackknight77 Is it? I have it on PS3 and Vita (it was free on Plus forever ago), and I never really gave it much play. Would I be better off just playing that than this version?

Aaaand they’re gone again.

Re: Feature: Every Nintendo Switch Online SNES Game Ranked
@Sandro89 Panel de Pon is only playable in Japanese, but the menus are really easy to figure out.
I’ve been playing the mode that has numbered stages, and it’s really difficult and fun.
Re: Review: Space Invaders: The Invincible Collection - 40 Years Of History In One Package
Nearly perfect collection. It just needs Extreme 2 and Infinity Gene. And Space Invaders vs Arkanoid should just be natively included - that game rules.
Re: Looks Like Bandai Namco Is Bringing Its Retro Collection To The West As Namco Museum Archives
Pac-Man Championship Edition Demastered 8-Bit Version? But we still don’t have the regular version on Switch. Very odd.
Re: Catherine: Full Body Will Get A Demo On Switch, File Size And Other Details Revealed
@KoopaTheQuick It is a bit pervy I guess, but it’s a fantastic game.
Re: Indiecalypse Shows The Crude Reality Of Indie Game Development, And It's Out On Switch This Week
Is this the first eShop game to straight up drop an uncensored s-bomb in its game description? I was surprised to see that the other day, haha.
Re: SkateBIRD Is No Longer Landing On Switch In 2020, Gets Pushed To Next Year
I’m really looking forward to this one, but I have plenty of games to keep me busy in the meantime.
Re: Nintendo Download: 21st May (North America)
What The Golf rules, but I have that on iOS already.
The NES and SNES update was great though. I’m thoroughly enjoying all 4 games.
Re: Feature: Every Nintendo Switch Online NES Game Ranked
Super Dodgeball deserves better than this.
Re: How Well Do You Know The Legend Of Zelda?
10/10. I found this one to be way easier than the recent Mario quiz.
Re: Nintendo Expands The Switch Online SNES And NES Service With Four More Titles
Sweet. I’m especially excited about Panel de Pon and Wild Guns, but I’ll play all 4 of these.
Re: Poll: Rate Your Favourite Nintendo Switch Online NES Games
I gave some easy 10’s to Super Dodge Ball, Ninja Gaiden, Zelda, and the Super Mario Bros games.
Re: Rumour: Pikmin 3 Deluxe Reportedly In The Works For Nintendo Switch
@RupeeClock I love announcements with quick turnarounds. I’m especially a fan of surprise “available now!” releases.
I was so pumped when I noticed that the new Paper Mario drops in just two months.
Re: Nintendo Download: 14th May (North America)
I hope The Eternal Castle is as cool as it looks.
Re: Gallery: See How Much Better Xenoblade Chronicles Looks On Switch
The original looks embarrassing next to the Definitive Edition. This is quite the upgrade.
Re: If Utterly Bonkers Multiplayer Games Are Your Jam, Check Out What The Golf? On Switch
What The Golf rules on iOS. It’s gonna be great on Switch too.
Re: Hooray! Race With Ryan Is Getting Paid DLC And A Physical Deluxe Edition

Re: Nintendo Earned Almost $2 Billion In Digital Sales This Year, A 72% Yearly Increase
My Switch is 100% digital, and I have a loooot of Switch games. I guess there’s a lot of people just like me with digital sales figures like that.
Re: Oddworld: Munch’s Oddysee Launches On Switch Later This Month
@duffmmann This one in particular started out as an Xbox exclusive. Oddworld has no allegiance I guess, haha.
Re: It's Been Three Years Since Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Was Released On Nintendo Switch
My friends and I have been playing this one online a LOT lately since we can’t hang out in real life. It’s still crazy fun.
Re: Review: Picross S4 - More Of The Same, But That's Fine
@SuperCharlie78 I’ve played most of the Picross games and I think they play much better with buttons than the touch screen.
I cannot imagine choosing touch screen over the buttons, but I also don’t get why the option isn’t there.
Re: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Sold More Digital Units In A Single Month Than Any Console Game In History
@geni53yr7 A lot of us “older” gamers (I’m not that old - I’m 32 - but I’m certainly not a teenager) that grew up with physical game collections are all-in on digital now because we don’t want mountains of stuff anymore.

Re: Nintendo Download: 23rd April (North America)
I’m still not sure if I should start with the remake or the original Trials of Mana. But both look great.
Re: Sega Open To Reviving Sonic's 1993 Arcade Game, But Needs Your Support
Oh man, please! They always acted like the trackball controls made this impossible to port, so it’s funny to see them change their tune.
Re: Atooi's Delayed Switch Game Chicken Wiggle Workshop Has Been Renamed To Hatch Tales
@brandonbwii As far as I can tell, it’s the full story mode plus a level creator (and sharing!).
Re: Burnout Paradise Remastered Launches On June 19th, According To US eShop Listing
I bought this game for like $30 back in 2008. It’s a wonderful game - it’s one of my favorite racing games ever. But I bought it for $30 literally 12 years ago.

Re: Nintendo Download: 16th April (North America)
I love the concept of Later Daters. And hey, if anyone hasn’t played Shovel Knight yet, DO IT.
Re: Nintendo Switch Gets Its Fourth Picross S Series Game Next Week
@datamonkey I would never use it, but I don’t understand why touch screen controls aren’t an option.
Re: Nintendo Switch Gets Its Fourth Picross S Series Game Next Week
@TobiasAmaranth I’m just about done Murder By Numbers and I’m absolutely loving it.
Sure, the puzzles aren’t as hard as they could be - I definitely complete them faster than I generally do in a Picross game - but I’m still very much enjoying it.
Anyways, cool! New Picross! 30x40!

Re: The Multi-Award-Winning Disco Elysium Is Coming To Nintendo Switch
@status-204 From the bits of this game I’ve seen, I was afraid of that. I’m still kinda interested though.
Re: It's Official: The Super Mario LEGO Sets Are Launching This August
The reveal trailer for these was really cool, and everyone seemed to hate them immediately. Glad to see the comments are more positive now.
Re: Cooking Mama's New Game Has Been Pulled From The Switch eShop And Nobody Knows Why
The Target store I work at has this on the shelf and completely sellable. Weird.
