Ahhh man I had no idea about this!! I'm 30 minutes from DC and definitely would've taken the kids for at least a day. Oh well, sounds like it was a great event!
Anyways this seems to be reviewing very well across the board. From what I've seen it's definitely not a game for me but happy the Switch keeps getting hit after hit. Hope lots of people enjoy it and it becomes a franchise!
@derty Looks neat but like I said doesnt jump out as a must purchase to me. Too many games to play ya know, if it came to PS plus/Epic Store etc I would give it a shot probably though.
Outside of Torchlight 2 nothing really was a must buy for me personally. Was jampacked though which is nice, I do enjoy the format of the Indie showcases even if most of the games dont appeal to me.
Ehh I don't agree that the appeal has grown. To be honest cloud saves are really the main benefit to me personally. Really hope SNES games come soon as I'm seriously considering not even renewing our membership when it runs out in October.
Seems strange to bring it at this point. Its super cheap elsewhere and wasnt one of the better Lego games if I remember correctly. Wonder what they plan on charging for this
Oh geez, this is an article that's going to bring out the worst. I enjoy many EA games. Have probably bought over 20 of theirs just the Gen and will buy at least 3 more of their games for the rest of the year. They have definitely done some things I'm not a fan of but the EA hate train is so tiresome
It's essentially a $50 upgrade if you sell your old switch. New warranty, hopefully fixed joycons, and all the other improvements. Yes it's definitely worth it imo.
Ehh the WRC games have been consistently mediocre for years so hard to get to jazzed about this. Really is a genre that's there for the taking. Wish a studio would build an exclusive switch Sim from the ground up but I understand why that may not be feasible. Hope Grid turns out good.
Yeah it being wired kinda negates some of its usefulness. Still have to have a wire going across your living room so doesn't really solve that problem. Though I'm sure in a few months they will have a new one that's wireless with a headphone jack.
Almost pulled the trigger on the Power A controller today, happy I didn't. This sound like a beast, glad it has symmetrical sticks too. Just preordered the black one!!
Sigh, we have spent a stupid amount of money today. Really was a perfect storm. Definitely got some good deals but always stings a little seeing a 4 figure amazon cart. Thanks for the links! 😭😭
So many experts in here lol, the Lite will work out extremely well for me and my kids based on how they play. They're are super excited to each have their own switches as am I. Really wish people could wrap their heads around the fact that not everything has to appeal to them... And that's OK!
They would make an absolute fortune by letting you go online, make your own design/color scheme like Microsoft does with their controllers. I'd pay a bit extra to have a custom one just how I wanted and I'm sure others would too. This Gameboy one looks ace!
@Edu23XWiiU no point going back and forth man. I see it as a great option, you don't and that's cool. Based on how my kids play I think they'll work out terrific. Glaf we have options
@Nintendofan83 I'm the same lol, I love my kids but sometimes I don't want to share either! I think this approach is perfect for people like us who are gamers themselves but also have kids who are.
This is so perfect. I'm glad it's finally been confirmed. Going to sell one of our current switches and get 2 of these once my kids decide on what colors they want lol. Going to have to buy a couple more copies of a few games but it'll be worth it since we will all have out own systems. Looking forward to these little things!
Noooooo! Was hoping this would be much better. Seems to be getting consistent "meh" reviews. Daggum shame, guess it's back to Actraiser for the 100th time. Hope we get the original on Switch in some capacity soon.
Ultimate Alliance is day one, will check out that Actraiser style game as well if it reviews well enough. Going to pick up DQB 2 when it's on sale during the holidays since will have to buy 2 copies. Lots of variety this month!
Man I thought my buying gameplan was set in stone until October but I met have to get this. Actraiser was one of my absolute favorites as a kid and this looks pretty good and at a decent price point. Really hope it turns out well!

Re: Guide: Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games And Accessories For August And September
Links Awakening is the only game that I will be getting on Switch but August and September will be very expensive on the hardware side

Re: Review: Skulls of the Shogun: Bone-A-Fide Edition - A Fine Port, But Online Play Is Dead On Arrival
My kids have adored this game for years! Got it free with PS Plus, probably wont double dip but I def recommend it!
Re: Video: WRC 8's Redesigned Career Mode Detailed In Brand New Trailer
Ehh the WRC games have been consistently mediocre for years so hard to get to jazzed about this. Really is a genre that's there for the taking. Wish a studio would build an exclusive switch Sim from the ground up but I understand why that may not be feasible. Hope Grid turns out good.

Re: Use Fortnite Chat In Docked Mode With This Officially Licensed Switch Pad
@nintendork64 lol, yeah WE are the ones making it more complicated, not nintendo right
Re: Use Fortnite Chat In Docked Mode With This Officially Licensed Switch Pad
@YANDMAN with 2 kids and 3 dogs, anything wired is an instant no go for me. But at least we all have options.
Re: Use Fortnite Chat In Docked Mode With This Officially Licensed Switch Pad

Re: The DLC Packs For Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 Won't Be Sold Individually
If the game if good I will happily buy the pass. Just seems like another frivolous thing for people to get upset about honestly.

Re: Guide: Nintendo Switch vs Nintendo Switch Lite: What Are The Differences?
@Drussa I already have 2 switches and know how it works. Thanks for your suggestion though
Re: Guide: Nintendo Switch vs Nintendo Switch Lite: What Are The Differences?
@Edu23XWiiU well, we will enjoy our revisions I'm sure of it, thanks
Re: Guide: Nintendo Switch vs Nintendo Switch Lite: What Are The Differences?
@Edu23XWiiU no point going back and forth man. I see it as a great option, you don't and that's cool. Based on how my kids play I think they'll work out terrific. Glaf we have options
Re: Guide: Nintendo Switch vs Nintendo Switch Lite: What Are The Differences?
@Edu23XWiiU in some aspects its a superior console imo. My kids play 90% of the time handheld anyways so for us makes more sense.
Re: Guide: Nintendo Switch vs Nintendo Switch Lite: What Are The Differences?
@Drussa thanks, doesn't solve the issue of not being able to play the same game online, simultaneously, on 2 systems though.
