Keep in mind P5 Strikers is already on Switch….

@oconnoclast finally someone with info. I guess they got an ultimatum relocate or well I figure they’ll have quiet goodbyes.

Thank you now this makes a lot more sense.

Well that dulls the shine a bit? I’m still pretty excited though.

@Anti-Matter not the entire game. .02 is actually the prequel to 3 literally. It’s built off that engine. And .02 is part of the 2.8 collection. If KH 3 can’t run on Switch .02 wouldn’t be able to either.

If I wanted a portable cloud version; remote play is a much better option. Switch is kind of dead in the water for cloud games outside the house.

A consoles without a walled garden…. Kinda of excited.

@nessisonett that’s a nice idea but with Tencent on a buying spree, and maybe others- it’s hard to make the industry stay “separate” .

I’m so excited :3

And the trailer has some Unova love

This is a translation error that’s been blown out of proportion. He’s not saying the Switch is for kids, but that the Switch has a larger audience of younger players.

Big difference.

@Heavyarms55 @JJtheTexan not only that they’ve changed to where the parade will be for the floats and took some out. Its a surprise that Pikachu made the cut.

Okay look I took a few days to comprise my thoughts after playing for about a week.

The game is a fine entry into KH, but lacks a lot basics that you'd expect out of a Rhythm game. I'm not necessarily the best at Rhythm games, but I've play a number of them. For one thing there are three different modes, Field Battle, Boss Battle, and Memory Dive. Field Battle and Boss Battle are fine, but Memory dives? Basically Memory Dives is a music video that plays in the background while you try and see the notes. In some cases, I couldn't see at all. At least with Boss Battles which are similar there is a line and you can see where you are suppose to look for the notes. This actually makes “Boss Battles” the best of the three modes. And Memory Dives are forced on you towards the end for of course "Frozen" -________________-

Then there is the arbitrary levels of the teams and “items”. Like I'm not sure why you need Exp Boost items. I don't think the “Collection” idea is a bad for a secondary level. I mean Miku has VP. But with Miku you get to dress your characters up. You are lock into some of the most boring outfits for the characters. And Aqua has a bunch of outfit items from her solo game. o.O You can't mix the teams, which why? Mickey is a super summons, which is fine but it's weird playing Riku without Mickey. Also, it's linear, so for fans who have played previous entries; you have to slog through a decade worth of information that you probably are already aware of just to get to the new information. This game was clearly meant to be played on the Switch in Handheld mode. If you opt to use a controller, depending on the one you choose, it could be painful. I ending up swapping my hand position, and it made a world of difference.

Do I hate it? No, it's a fun little game. But I'm not sure you want to spend the money on it. Obviously, this is the entry that they gave to everyone but put on the Switch to “Catch” Switch players up.

@Thaliard I don’t know about that. I’ve heard Omega Labyrinth series is a good dungeon crawler rogue like game. I think the acceptance is still based on Western de-sensitivity toward cartoon violence.

@Thaliard Your argument makes no sense. Most “violence”’ in video games are things plenty of people encounter on a daily basis though and not limited to just “guns”. GTA, for instance, has plenty deviant acts that go beyond just guns. Part of the appeal GTA, Saints Row, etc is being able to live out your deviant fantasies. And literally everyone has been presented with an opportunity to steal, lie, or hit someone.

It’s literally only 234 left, like at this point why not add those back in? Not that I’m going to rage about it, but I hardly see how these 234 are making any sort of difference either way.

Anyway, I’m annoyed most of the starters are benched :/

@westman98 okay that makes more sense and less sense at the same time. I don’t see Nintendo using Ubitus exclusively as they would have said as much. And I still think Sega plans on bringing PSO2 to Switch via cloud using Azure as that’s who powers their global servers.

@westman98 xCloud is vastly different than what Ubitus is though. One is a rental service one is an out right purchase. You act like it’s same thing, but I seriously wouldn’t be surprised if other steaming companies try to get on Switch.

Also it’s not Nintendo teaming up to this but the publisher. It’s in the article.o.O

Handheld mostly. There are a few Nintendo Only games that I’ll play docked; but I prefer to use it as my handheld device. Otherwise it doesn’t make much sense for me.

I just want the Joycon o.o

@SwitchVogel except Nomura has this thing with Sora. Look at his speech about his “sky children”.

Well the port devs are located in China thus hit big with Covid, but it also runs kind bad on my X so.. good game though.

Anyway, I kinda of wish they had delayed it and just released it when the DLC. But hopefully this fixes a lot.

@TheFrenchiestFry most likely this. Which is fine it’s getting anime; it makes sense.

@RazumikhinPG hmm interesting... well apparently where I exist they are referred to as “Yoga Massages” not that I’ve ever tried one either though

@RazumikhinPG :/ Sure but just remember games like Gears tactics and Wasteland feature Turn Based Combat and games like KH and FF don’t. Maybe try and come up with some characteristics that actually define your new genre term that someone can’t counter.

And also a Brazilian was isn’t called that because it’s done by Brazilians it was called just because it was popularized by Brazil. Like French Toast was popularized in France.

I have never in my life heard the term “Thai massage” and I’m 41 and frequently go to spas. o.O

@RazumikhinPG no I asked you to “define” that. Define the commonality between FF and DQ with Tales or Xeno. Having a problem? Figured you might. A game like The Last Remnant isn’t actually close those at all. Or better yet how one of your “defining” doesn’t even qualify anymore.

Gameplay genres are not the “rabbit hole” you are claiming them to be. If I said something was turned based RPG; I’ve instantly given them idea of what the game is. Tactical rpg, platformer etc don’t confuse the gameplay genre, as most games are defined by first, for a category genre which games are generally only secondary defined by if at all.

I assure you if you said oh Cris Tales is JRPG most people would say it’s Japanese. In fact, at the start of this thread you had “explain” to someone oh it’s genre. That’s a Rabbit Hole that only exists because people think they can change terminology to fit their needs when the bulk of people are still going to default to the historically definition.

@RazumikhinPG that’s a problem because it’s a personal choice meaning that you personally use but most still use a term you deem as “outdated”. And again, if “turn-base” is your only characteristic that seems a bit vague and also why not just say turned based rpg; why bother with JRPG.

Then you have people who say “old school” JRPG.

It’s a rabbit hole. That would be better if you just didn’t go down at all.

@RazumikhinPG considering the US is actually more East and than west of Japan. yes it would be a “western” rpg.

BTW I’m not saying this is how Japan sees things; I can’t speak to that.

@RazumikhinPG We do actually use the term Western RPG as a location term, so that argument is null.

The problem with saying JRPG as a genre is defining that actual gameplay. Is it “Turn-base”? Because there are a ton of games like Xenoblade, Tales, etc that don’t have that characteristic that most people consider JRPGS. If you say it’s “menu heavy“, well the Witcher 3 is menu heavy and FF XV isn’t. If you say it’s anime based; The Last Remanent and Lost Odyssey are not.

To go another route, if one considers Disgaea and Fire Emblem JRPGs based on “genre” characteristics than how does one differentia a game like Gears Tactics? Quite literally a turn based tactical game with character classes and a heavy story.

The term JRPG as genre has no defining characteristic to define that genre. And trying to fit it into a “genre” term is like trying to fit a round peg into a square hole. It temporarily works true but when you actually examine it; the argument fall apart.

However it will always be able to identify with being “Japanese” it’s in the name.

Edit: I had to go back and get my glasses.

@twztid13 @RazumikhinPG JRPG is a term than somehow, as as late, has changed how it as defined, and confuses those that use it’s historical definition.

Historically it was “origin”’ term and thus to a good chunk of people any Japanese RPG is a JRPG. However, as of late it’s defined by “genre” but yet games like FF XV and “Tales” are still considered JRPGs by most.

I personally think people should stop using it as a “genre” term because it creates confusion with those who have historically used it as an “origin” term.

But it is what it is.

@Richnj the first Resident Evil movie was decent though.

However, like you I love bad movies. Some of my favorites are B movie rolls trash like Ultra Violet, Daybreakers, and Vampyre Nation.

This, on other hand, can’t even be bothered to at least make it look like fantasy. :/

@backup368 it would if Nintendo owned Ubisoft. Look, I’ll give you an easy one, how is Steve any different than Bayonetta?

Oh wait don’t bother because you’ll alter your position again as you’ve been doing every time someone else has pointed out the flaws in your argument.

Let me make this clear because this is last time I’m responding to you, MS owns Mojang; you should probably accept this instead of quibbling about it.

I would want Doom Slayer and Isabelle to be in his reveal trailer.

@backup368 fun fact Minecraft is actually published by MS in Japan not Mojang.

Enjoy

@HammerKirby I don’t think it was an “accident”. I think they took flak for censoring a “grown woman” in a “R rated” game and had to “fix” it. Because someone would have had to intentional alter the code to get that there in their first place. Unless they built the the Xbox version first, which is highly doubtful.

@Valhalla91 it’s the censorship issues nothing to do with MS. Im sure they only put it on the Xbox, as statement to Sony.

Great news! Love listening to Jon. Look forward to the content.

The yellow border draws your eyes too much and keeps it away from Sonic and Tails.

Tails looks weird in Japanese art, and it’s too busy.

Ergo NA, and I generally hate the NA covers.

@Rafie I’m not saying I know for a fact or anything. But shortly after their release on Xbox in Feb, they went to Gamepass in June. And I know Gamepass does involve money, so they had to have the Gamepass money before port was even a thing. Ergo, MS basically paid for the port.

@Rafie SE didn’t put the games on Xbox randomly or for the “fans”. MS paid to have them on Gamepass. In other words, MS paid to have them ported over. I mean they could move them over but SE probably wants a chunk of change from Nintendo.

@Ulysses so Disney execs still don’t get video games and never will. Disney infinity 1.0 (and 2.0) barely had any Classic Disney characters. Avalanche’s explained that Disney execs feel video games should be tie-ins like toys(minus what EA does). Basically video games are toys to Disney so why wouldn’t they be their to advertise the movies?

@TheFrenchiestFry Yeah, It’s just I think thy there is an internal numbering sequence; they just don’t make it public like .2 Fragmentary Passage.

@TheFrenchiestFry I wouldn’t consider DDD a “side game” because if you don’t know what happens in that game you really don’t know anything about what’s going on in KH3.

@NintendoPok How am I running on the Internet? It’s called a phone. They do that now.

First, it’s not about me. But unlike you, I recognize there are people not as fortunate as me. Second, Persona 4 Golden is a PS Vita game but Fall Guys is a PS4 game. As a result the min requirements for P4G are far less than Fall Guys, the memory alone is 2g vs 8g. That is provided you know what requirements for a game are. And also, 600 is still far more money that the 200 dollar Switch Lite that many have.

Please get off your rage fuel fest and actually take a moment to examine the current world climate and maybe just maybe have some empathy for those around you?

@NintendoPok Everybody does not have a computer.

@Trippersigs22 a lot timed exclusivity deals have it in the contract they can’t really acknowledge it. Or at least not the length of time. Look at Cuphead, it’s everywhere now. But they stated it would never go to PS4. Yes, they have their reasons for not admitting things.

@SmaggTheSmug Whilst I agree that in most games competitive play keeps people “playing” over anything else. Its not necessarily true with Pokemon. 1) the obvious not all competitive being played in game, and 2) a lot of people “shiny hunt” and those people also continue playing long after the based game is done as well. If anything due to some mechanics being overused in game but not sim at certain times past, it was the shiny hunters that carried that engagement for the base game.

@Incarna I miss the PSS system.

Mineko’s Night Market has been MIA for too long :/

I’ve read the reviews and most of them have good things to say about Marenian Tavern Story. I was just waiting for a sale o.o

Look the online format is better and the demos actually being playable from home is much more useful.

However

What’s not better, is not having a single entity organize it. If E3 had been the online organizer, and it was still setup for one or two weeks, it would have been fine. This bizarre round of companies each doing their own thing over months was and is really tedious.

The only company’s whose plan was never really alter was Sony’s because they were not going to do E3 anyway.

@Allspice yeah I was thinking the same thing. 500,000 seems like just to port it over from PC to the other platforms.

@Ralizah oh yeah the soundtrack is beautiful; I can’t imagine a midi soundtrack.

@Anti-Matter My head hurts and my patience is low. I’m talking about a service that is not exclusive to its platform holder. And you keep talking hardware. This conversation is going nowhere so I think it’s a good time to stop
