@Scarko agree agree agree

On the way to the Nintendo store right now! Will be real tough not to play while I’m working…

No. Freakin. Way. Wait, it’s almost April 1st. Is this an early joke?!?

@Quarth wow I had no idea there were 4 endings. I’m about 25 hours in and loving it.

Love his art style too. The cover art is so great. I hope he continues with the team! Wish his style was integrated into the actual character models for BD2. I really don’t like their proportions (and I love me some big head classic rpg style)

Thanks for the write up! I was wondering how we acquired promotion medals…. Gotta save up that kudos!

I’m about 9 hours in and really loving it so far~ thanks for the v basic tips Nintendo haha at this point all things I should know but good for brand new players for sure.

@the_beaver ah I love Switch Up reviews. Like you said they loved this game which really was encouraging along w this NL review

@Troll_Decimator haha so true. It’s funny because I think since it’s such an established franchise, and most of us first heard the name when we were so young, the generic naming doesn’t feel so basic. It has the impact of the series behind it.

That said, I’m not bothered by Triangle Strategy. If you ignore the obvious, literal meaning it can take on it’s own energy just like FF did.

@getyourak I heard it’s a bit more heavy on cutscenes in the beginning , but yea will still be a big part of the quest

@BenAV Dag that does suck! Though not trying to be a jerk, it’s funny how a one day delay can really bum one out (myself included). Ya gotta admit tho, not too harsh of a “trouble”

Just got my copy, can’t wait to delve in but must work first haha

Just got my copy! A little weary of the heavy focus on dialogue, but feeling ready to dive into an epic tale and am happy it’s voice acted so I don’t have to read everything!

Feeling the same as many here, with the whole not enough time for rpgs these days kind of life. But, that said, I’m so looking forward to this one. I loved the Messenger (tho it did become a bit of a slog towards the end for my liking), and this one looks to be just as special. Perhaps one of the rare rpgs I’ll make time for!

Wonder if there’s going to be online multiplayer!? Looks to be a super fun way to experience all 9 episodes in a row!

Welcome Felix! Looking forward to hearing ya~

I was stoked for more Kate presence but I’m sure she has her reasons for not wanting to put up with Alex and Zions tomfoolery!

@DBTheHumbleSavage haha what a great break down. You’re definitely not alone. I only played the one on wii back in the day that was multiplayer focuses, can’t remember the name but it was a decent time. But I agree! Really not into the Rabbids. Tho I must say in Kingdom Battle they weren’t tooooo annoying. Really came close, but I had a good enough time!

Finally beat Mario + Rabbids so now to complete Dread, Shovel Knight (finally picked it up) and continue my trials in Hades (finally picked it up!). Also some Brain Age, Animal Crossing, Ring Fit and Fitness Boxing. And always some Tetris!

Very strange update indeed…..

Been waiting to dive into this one~~ seems how’s the time!

I’ll be challenging myself with this! I just wonder how much longevity the games have~ how do they evolve as you play/when does it begin to repeat?

Love the review Alex

Interested to know what these unlockables are… prolly art galleries I’m guessing.?

Yessss I’m so stoked the soundtrack is one of the Pros. My good friend made it! So proud of his work getting praise. Go Amos!

@nkarafo I remember reading graphical elements took a hit on Switch so maybe this upgrade will bring it more inline. I love this game and do like that it’s on Switch (my main console), but agree @jayj that it’s not quite a perfect fit and does align w PS more, while 99 feels so concise and focused for the handheld experience especially.

@quigtendo yea! I sold mine (2nd edition) on Craigslist for $250. So $100 for the upgrade was totally worth it for me. Looks great and I love all the little additions. also the joy con connection is not wobbly like my old one. Plus you get a joy con refresh , which new ones cost $80 so considering that it’s a good deal.

As a 37 year old who works on a computer all day I can Definitely relate ! Thanks for all the tips. Gotta keep moving!

Tho , yea kinda annoying to see all the Amazon links. Especially the bs expensive ones. We don’t need to see 4 different pro controllers ha.

Ok I’m interested, especially since it’s only $30 and 12 hours.

@Spiders I allllmost completely agree. I really wanted to love it. And it’s so close to being loveable for me. Just wanted a bit more, substance as you said. And as the review quote mentions, it’s a bit tooo vague. Still a cool piece of art. But not enough to keep my interest sadly.

I jussst started playing again last night but didn’t delve into any of the new stuff. It felt like not much had changed, but then again I didn’t unlock Brewster, cruise w Kapp’n or design any homes yet.

I did see my girlfriends house, who I’m parting ways with and it made me so sad. I just got the OLED, and thankfully I realized just before selling my ol switch, that I’d need to transfer her account to the oled just so I could delete her character and house. Which meant I needed to make a Nintendo account for her too. Laborious process for a tragic real life event. Do not recommend. But such is life.

Looking forward to revisiting Happy Club with new eyes, I’m sure it’ll help heal my heart.

@GoldenGamer88 oh man I just started it last night and I got stuck at the same part, and I read the signs, and I’m 37…

@luke88 I was wondering about these questions too. Also wondering how easy it is to set up games with your friends and how it works to then pause and quit the game to return later?

Bring on the dread drops!

Are people actually complaining that this is $30? Seems fair to me! Still unsure whether I’m going to give it a whirl but I love the simplicity concept. And yes! As some have mentioned- the imagination it will require!

Not my pick, but real happy for all the fans who voted. And I just love Sakurai. His humor is so good. Such a good spirit! Gonna miss his presentations.

Love how these keep coming. Also love that Tetris Effect is coming to Switch this month!

Wow so there will be 7 chapters or 5!? Either way, hmm I was going to wait but given how long between 1 and 2, I might as well play as they release. How are they making money tho, I’m perplexed!?

Yeaaa I’ll be getting it. Tho I do still feel a little burned by super Mario party.

@Clyde_Radcliffe exactly, a weird choice tbh.... especially since its...sega!? I got the Genesis collection for half off at one point so I'm good!

I am down w 64 for the most part tho, wouldn't we rather play the hd versions;) Will be great to play online, and I'm def getting the controllers! (tho $50 when it was like 2 for $50 for NES and SNES seems steep)

@Octane agree 100%

@GrailUK my thoughts exactly … it’s like the direct is in mere hours.. I can imagine this was going to be one of the few, and maybe only 2?, 1st party games announced this direct. Why spoil what little we got ha

Would be all in if it was closer to a 15 hour experience hehe
Still will prolly play at some point. Just don’t have the tiiiiime

4 years later! Wow there’s hope for folders after all

Stoked to cruise!

@Nontendo_4DS I’m about the same! Played around 40 hours and never have gotten better than 3rd! It gets crazy in that top ten.

I could instantly tell this game was going to be bad when I saw the gameplay trailers. It looked so clunky and dull to me. A shame then

@AlexOlney the monkeys out of the ball !

@Chibi_Manny now that would actually make some sort of sense! Except that DK would barely fit in his ball haha imagine him all curled up in it

@WreckitRyan only if Jon’s included too! He’s the biggest Monkey of the bunch

Wonderful updates it seems. I’ve been waiting to dive into this one, and almost did, then I saw they were doing so many patches that I decided to wait until done. Also, not sure how I’ll find the time with all the upcoming 1st party games I want, but this one seems to special to miss

@Octane this!

@Res462 yessss I’m glad you liked the music! My old friend, Amos Roddy was the composer! So cool seeing him work on more and more projects. He also did In Other Waters, Kingdom Two Crowns, and others

What a touching tribute. I wish he and his team the best and look forward to watching these one day.
