Finally a decent racing sim, too bad that Nintendo itself ignores this genre. I wish to see a competitor to Forza and Gran Tourismo series made by Big N.
@manu0, they don't, only quite big adapters for different plugs, but it loses all the idea of a tiny charger/dock. That's the reason why I didn't buy a Skull & Co. charger before.
I keep my Wii Fit board near the TV as Wii Fit U have some fun party games and offers an excellent workout. There's still no Switch title to beat it in the latter.
@Sakura7 Since firmware version 1.25 it supports Wii Remotes + Classic controllers. Just update your stick, sync with a WiiMote, and attach your TvC to the latter one.
After the end of the free online, I returned to the first Splatoon and still play it from time to time. Callie and Marie are the best as they let you play for free.
I welcome this title as I played to death MK8 on my Wii U and have no intention to re-buy this rehashed but still old game again. Will play this while waiting for MK9 to out.
You can build levels on the same Switch in co-op but should buy additional consoles to play 'em locally? That's so gimmicky stupid. Why you just can't share the screen in the same vein as it was on Wii / Wii U New Super Mario Bros.?
I needed a tiny dock so I could put it into my bag and carried everywhere. The official one is too huge for this, so I ended up buying the Skull & Co. one. It also has a detachable core to make it even smaller.
That's what I call milking, developers paint 100 "new" simplistic images, or even have an automated converter for it, and here we go - the new game is ready. Even on DS we had the built-in editor, now it should have an online sharing like in Mario Maker to interest me.
@Alexkidd1985, yes I can. You have to untick the 'Don't use GamePad as controller' option from the 'Advanced' tab in TeconMoon's WiiVC Injector before injecting Nintendont. For more details on a building process google the aforementioned tool's name.
Have four Hori Mini pads for my N64, and they're a godsend gift for all games, excluding a small list of compatible with d-pad only. I use the original gamepad in those rare cases.
It's not fun when the game is too easy, to play it from the beginning to the end. Most previous titles in this series put in challenge players of all ages. And this one was designed with only toddlers in mind, skipping more adult gamers. It misses the second part of Nintendo's 'Easy to pick up, hard to master' platformers formula, which makes this game relaxing and boring for anyone older than 3.
It's really sad to see that even in the 2D platformers genre Switch lacks so much. If we don't count ports which are available for years on another consoles, there's not so much to list. But everything will change in June when Super Mario Maker 2 will out.
The co-op mode just garbage, you battle for a camera or blindly follow the leader. A pointer instead of a touch screen is the awful substitution. The only good side of this port is a DLC, but from my point of view, it doesn't justify rebuying this game. Wii U version, despite lack of the additional content, is still a top notch.
Without fog, those foes lost their surprise effect and look silly by stood so close to the protagonist without triggering. No doubt, it was due to N64 limitations, but common, the game is just designed with it in mind. This and the lazy work on remastering itself - this port doesn't deserve anything higher than 5.
One of my favorite Switch titles, a framerate isn't matter that much in a simulation game as it blamed in the review. Wish there'll be an announcement for DLCs.
This genre is so lacking on Switch, two best titles are updated ports from Wii U & still no decent autosim to compete with Forza or Gran Turismo. I hope we'll get at least Mario Kart 9 in a Switch' lifespan.
Co-op on Wii was a huge part of fun in this title for me, not so great in a solo. This port is inferior & mini-games don't justify the loss. I just play again on Wii or Wii U (both are still under my TV along N64 & Switch).
Sad to see that two of three Nintendo titles here are Wii U ports. Isn't it symptomatic that games from the dead & failed console are more popular than all other Switch titles?
