I'm guessing the developers didn't want to spoil the experience by putting some of the jump scares in the trailer, and while horror games are not my thing, that was still a very boring trailer.
I pre-loaded this when pre-purchase became available. I've had it on my radar since whenever it was first revealed to be coming to Switch. But I still haven't tried it out, yet.
I enjoyed Midnight on Wii U. It quickly got tough, but I managef to beat it in about 4-5 hours or so. Not sure if I'll get it on Switch or not. I never picked up Midnight 2 either, so if I do end up double dipping, then I'll be tempted to get the sequel, as well. I'm a sucker for having all games in a series be on the same system.
I check the news channel every time the blue indicator appears (which is several times a day). A lot of the content is useless to me, as well, but I still enjoy it.
Just a suggestion, though: For all those with ideas that could make the service better, why don't you send those ideas to Nintendo? Then maybe some of them will eventually get implemented.
Started this on Wii U, but didn't get too far into it before moving on to other games. I'll probably pick it up on Switch when it's cheap enough, since my goal is to transfer all my Wii U games over to Switch as they become available.
@crackafreeze You & me both (about the Motocross review). I kept waiting for a NL review of the previous Motocross game that released back in November, I believe, but haven't seen one, yet.
I kept wondering if Dandara could actually walk & run because of the trailers never showing her doing so. Admittedly, that kind of turns me off of this game, but if it ever gets a decent discount, I may try it out.
I just don't see the appeal of this game (although admittedly, I've never tried playing it). It looks mediocre at best from the trailer I've watched. However, I'm not too into sports or sports games (except for martial arts & extreme sports).
I pre-loaded XC2 a while back, but seeing as I'm not very far into Skyrim, it might be quite a while before I begin playing XC2. I'll also be downloading Syberia 2 & Nine Parchments. I have Star Ghost on Wii U, but may at somepoint get it on Switch. I sure wish both Trine games, Splintercell: Blacklist, the Batman Arkham games & NFS Most Wanted, would all come to Switch, too, because I'd like the option to be able to play them on the go. Not to mention DKC Tropical Freeze, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, Yoshi's Wooly World, Guacamelee, The Fall (part 1), The Swapper, Stealth Inc 2, Smash 4, Toki Tori 1 & 2, Steam World Dig, Steam World Heist, The Swindle, Child of Light, LoZ: WW HD, LoZ TP HD, & more.
I believe this was the first third party game that was available to pre-purchace. When I saw that on the eshop I wondered why the developers even bothered, because I can't imagine anyone actually would've taken advantage of that.
I feel the opposite of the reviewer. I prefer to play video game board games over real board games BECAUSE of the (usually) minor additions like animations. I would much rather play video games over board games any day. I just no longer have any desire to play real board games — I think their pretty boring now — unless they are made into a video game. I played one game of Monopoly on Switch so far, & I enjoyed it (even though the AI won). I would probably rate it a 6 or 7.
I love this game & will be buying it tomorrow for my Switch. I have it on Wii U but got stuck due to the game breaking bug, but after the patch I was still unable to progress, so I never beat it. (I guess I was supposed to delete my save file & start over, but I didn't want to have to repeat all of the progress I had made.)
@joey302 For whatever it's worth, I downloaded Earth Atlantis, & I think it's pretty fun. I like the overall atmosphere, the sketchy look, & the music is nice, too. Sure, it could use some improvements (such as the mini-map, the strange turning mechanic, & maybe make the areas that are passable stand out as compared to areas that you can't pass through) but overall, as far as fun factor goes, I'd rate it a 7 or 8.
And while I do enjoy the occasional shooter, they're not one of my favorite genres, So I rarely play them, let alone beat them. But for some reason, I intend (& have the desire) to play this game through to completion.
@fullyilly I've had my eye on this game since it was revealed. I live in the US, so don't know too much about British history other than as it pertains to America, so Wulverblade has my curiosity piqued, as I like history. It also looks like a great game to play, with some awesome sound effects & music (judging by the trailer).
Not interested. The co-op description reminds me of Affordable Space Adventures, though (which I thought was fun in solo play — the opposite of what this one sounds like).

@MisterMan It was inevitable. Whatever goes up must come down at some point.
Re: Review: Ace Of Seafood (Switch eShop)
I haven't read the review yet, but I had this game on my wishlist until I saw the trailer almost 2 weeks ago. It looked awful.

Skyrim & Sky Force Reloaded

@TNLGUY I haven't heard about that. What content are you talking about?

Re: World Conqueror X Will Forcibly Annex Your Nintendo Switch This March
Sounds fun.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Version 1.3.0 Will Go Live Next Week
I prepurchased & downloaded this game, but still have yet to play it. I think Skyrim will keep me busy 'till summer, at least.

Re: Video: Get An Official Glimpse Of Castle Of Heart's Gameplay In Action
Needs a lot of improvement before I'd consider purchasing.

Re: The Fall Part 2: Unbound Is Set To Take Over The Switch This February
@beazlen1 The Swapper is an excellent game. I'd like to see that & a sequel come to Switch.

Re: Review: SteamWorld Heist: Ultimate Edition (Switch eShop)
I love this game!
Re: Review: Pinball FX3 (Switch eShop)
@rjejr I believe that free offer was only for one week.
Re: Nintendo Download: 21st December (North America)
Tiny Metal & Max for me.
Re: Review: Brawlout (Switch eShop)
@kepsux You & me both.
Re: Nintendo Download: 7th December (North America)
Teslagrad & both demos for me.
Re: Review: Teslagrad (Switch eShop)
I loved this game (& completed it 100%) on Wii U & I'll definitely be adding it to my Switch! Very fun game!

Re: Video: Meet the Crew in the Latest Floor Kids Gameplay Trailer
Hard pass on this one.
Re: Feature: Yooka-Laylee Jumps Onto Switch in December - We Learn All About It
I never have been, & still am not, interested in this game.
Re: Review: Green Game: TimeSwapper (Switch eShop)
Not interested in this game, or the Red Game, in the slightest.
Re: Review: Ittle Dew 2+ (Switch)
I have the first one on Wii U, & while entertaining, I quickly got bored with it & never finished it. I'm not too keen on the art style.
Re: Review: Maria The Witch (Switch eShop)
I believe this was the first third party game that was available to pre-purchace. When I saw that on the eshop I wondered why the developers even bothered, because I can't imagine anyone actually would've taken advantage of that.
Re: Review: Sparkle 2 EVO (Switch eShop)
I disagree with the reviewer about this game not being relaxing. I find it quite relaxing. I think it's fun in short bursts.
Re: Review: Sparkle 2 EVO (Switch eShop)
@MeloMan I used to have that game. It was rather enjoyable.
Re: Transcripted Is Coming to the Switch eShop Soon
Looks good, but it's not my type of game.

Re: Stick It to The Man Will Bring Its Zany Humour to Switch This Month
I have this on Wii U, but I'll download it on Switch, as well.
Re: Chess Ultra Arrives on the Switch eShop, With Cross-Platform Play, This Week
I've been waiting for this!
Re: Nintendo Download: 19th October (North America)
Elliot Quest & Syberia for me. Also interested in The Count Lucanor & Revenant Saga, but may wait on reviews for those.
Re: Elliot Quest Begins Its Switch Adventure This Week
I love this game & will be buying it tomorrow for my Switch. I have it on Wii U but got stuck due to the game breaking bug, but after the patch I was still unable to progress, so I never beat it. (I guess I was supposed to delete my save file & start over, but I didn't want to have to repeat all of the progress I had made.)
Re: Heroes Of The Monkey Tavern Is Bringing Dungeon Crawling Action To Switch
This is right up my alley. I'll download it on day 1.

Axiom Verge, Earth Atlantis, & Oxenfree for me.
Re: Feature: Zoink Games on Flipping Death, Fe, and Making the Move to Nintendo Switch
@Randomlight Agreed.
Re: Review: Axiom Verge (Switch eShop)
This game was great on Wii U. I'll definitely double dip on this one.
Re: Atooi Confirms Mutant Mudds Collection for the Nintendo Switch
Bought the first one on Wii U. It was ok, but nothing memorable. Never finished it, either. So I'll pass on the collection.
Re: Review: Astro Bears Party (Switch eShop)
That score seems a little generous.
Re: Over The Moon Gives a Gameplay and Project Update on The Fall Part 2: Unbound
@Bunkerneath Agreed. Regardless, I'll be downloading this on day 1.
Re: Review: Physical Contact: Picture Place (Switch eShop)
It's starting to sound like this developer is the RC MADIAX of Switch.
Re: Reminder: Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime is Out Today on the Switch eShop

Re: Projection: First Light Will Bring Shadow Puppetry to the Nintendo Switch
Looks interesting.
Re: My Nintendo in North America Adds Free Games to its Gold Rewards
I'm not into runners, but since it's free I guess I'll pick up Runner 2.
