Does the continued conspicuous absence of EarthBound suggest that Nintendo is working on a remaster/remake or some such and doesn't want to make the SNES version available on the online service?
Looks spectacular, so glad this is being given pride of place on Switch. Speaking for myself, this is one I'll play with Japanese audio and English subs. It would just be more immersive given the setting of the story.
Still grabbing it, but would do so with more haste if there were a confirmed processing power upgrade. I'm also not crazy about the white color scheme and would prefer the standard black one.
It would be cooler to have playable board games or mini-games inside ACNH to play online with friends. Nobody's coming over for in-person Monopoly any time soon.
@Silly_G That's a good point. Hopefully, they'll follow through with a physical release once the game is fully complete, and I don't see why they wouldn't.
ACNH definitely needs additional content to enliven the multiplayer experience. There are many features from past entries that can be brought back. I'm clamoring for mini-games and the return of The Roost. Cmon Nintendo, make it happen.
Almost all of these games look like variations of existing titles we've all played. That said, Trash Sailors could be fun, and Death Trash has a cool atmosphere and art style. One man's trash is another man's treasure.
I would totally buy Doom Eternal + DLC on a physical cartridge. I hope such a package comes out eventually. Making an 18GB+ game digital only just doesn't make the grade.
Clubhouse Games is superb. I recently snapped it up when the digital version went on sale and my expectations were exceeded. It's brimming with content and the games are just beautifully presented. An essential, for sure.
I dig this game's aesthetic but was absolutely terrible at it when I played on it PS4. The controls are cumbersome and could be made to be more intuitive. Or maybe I just suck.

Yeah, I'm a Yoko Taro fan and will be buying this on day one.
Re: Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel Will Include More Than 10,000 Cards
I might give this a spin. I wish Magic The Gathering would get its act together and put a game on consoles.

Re: DOOM Eternal: The Ancient Gods - Part Two Expected To Arrive On Switch "Later This Year"
I long for a copy of Doom Eternal on my shelf. Really hoping that happens after the next DLC.

Cmon Nintendo, make Fusion and Zero Mission playable on Switch.

Put the damn thing on a physical cartridge and I'm in.

Re: Mario Kart Tour Starts The Bells For Its Wedding Tour
Given how well the MK8 has sold, it's frankly surprising that more isn't done to keep things fresh for players on console.

Re: "Wide Variety" Of Third-Party Titles Planned For Switch Going Forward, Says Nintendo President
@floxi I'm up on the technical side of things, I merely meant that its desirability on the Switch is a no-brainer.
Re: "Wide Variety" Of Third-Party Titles Planned For Switch Going Forward, Says Nintendo President
Nier Automata/Replicant are no brainer ports we need.
