One of the few games I regret buying. After the initial wow factor of the visuals fades away, everything looks the same. Gameplay relies too much on trial and error so after brute forcing my way through the first 3 worlds I never touched it again.
Well if Nintendo abandoned the game so soon, I don't feel that bad for losing interest so soon.
My biggest gripe is they never made endings for Grand Prix, nor I am able to play 1 round fights if I want. It feels too long and not really rewarding.
I am in the other end too. I have spent 100 hours between both games and Arms only has 5 of those hours. But admittedly both games have had their fair share of updates.
Didnt enjoy the first one so not sure I will join. I feel mostly like @nab1 so maybe ranked matches may do the trick like @OorWullie suggests. Splatoon 2 keeps getting all my online gaming time.
I will get the SIime San demo as that one seems divisive. Still not sure about Revelations. In any case I would get 2, but as The Evil Within 2 is newer and just $10 more on PS4 for a limited time, I will get that instead.

Re: SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy Brings Two-On-Two Fighting Action To Switch
@JayJ
Exactly. Comments sections are meant to write opinions about the game in question and of course some people won't like some opinions.
Re: Feature: Here's What Was Announced During The January 2018 Nintendo Direct Mini
I didnt have any hype and still came up disappointed. Mostly ports and I never double dip.
Re: SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy Brings Two-On-Two Fighting Action To Switch
@Shiryu
You mean XIV lol. This one seems too shallow.
Re: Punch-Out!! Meets MadWorld In Pato Box For Nintendo Switch
@ThanosReXXX
Mexicans call boxing as box so the name makes sense. Duck Boxing would be closer to the meaning. Boxeo would be the actual word.
Re: Review: OPUS: The Day We Found Earth (Switch eShop)
Interesting and the price is right.
Re: A Nindies New Year Sale Has Begun on Switch Today
Severed and GEM for me.
Re: Review: Pic-A-Pix Deluxe (Switch eShop)
Played the demo. Using colours in Picross is new to me so that was interesting but it looks very basic and even ugly. Gotta try Piczle Lines.
Re: Nintendo Download: 4th January (North America)
@JayJ
Thanks I will try it then.
Re: Nintendo Download: 4th January (North America)
Pic a Pix is a picross game? King of the Monsters could be fun and I still need to get Floor Kids anyway.
Re: Art OF Fighting 2 And Crazy Climber To Punch Their Way Onto The Switch EShop
I wonder if the arcade "cheat" for AoF2 still works. Run towards enemy, throw, use fireball, dizzy enemy, rinse, repeat.
Re: Review: Hiragana Pixel Party (Switch eShop)
Thanks for the review, I will be picking it up.
Re: Feature: Memorable Games of 2017 - Thumper
@SonOfVon
I got it when it was $15 as I also read reviews and some player's opinions. Not sure why it gets so much praise.

Re: The Original Double Dragon Brings Street Justice To The Switch Next Week
Already have this little gem on PS4 so I will pass.
Re: ARMS Version 5.0 is Launching Tomorrow
Splatoon 2's Squeezer has priority for me but I will get to this later this week.
Re: Review: Pinball FX3 (Switch eShop)
I gotta try this one. I know Zen is famous for their pinball games.
Re: Nintendo Download: 21st December (North America)
Next Penelope, maybe Bloody Zombies and the Dark Witch demo.
Re: Splatoon 2's Next New Weapon is The Squeezer
Great timing. Needed to go back to Clam Blitz.
@Bengals76

Re: Nintendo Switch Picks Up Incredible Sales in Japan to Continue Its Strong Run
@Ernest_The_Crab
This week's sales numbers of those evergreen put other new releases to shame. I hope Zelda keeps increasing.
Re: The Latest Zelda: Breath of the Wild Free Gift is a Bit Mean to Kass
I love how the game lets you go vegan if you want and still get all bonuses that meat provides.
Re: Nintendo Switch Picks Up Incredible Sales in Japan to Continue Its Strong Run
As expected, Mario hit the million and Splatoon 2 the million and half before the end of the year.
Re: Sega Dreamcast, Saturn And Mega Drive Hardware Coming From Retro-Bit in 2018
I am sick of buying faulty DCs so I would love this.
Or I could also take Shenmue remasters, Sega.
Re: Feature: Throwing Shapes With Floor Kids' JonJon And Kid Koala
Yes, please review it. Still not taking the plunge.
Re: The Next Batch Of ACA Neo Geo Titles For Switch Has Been Revealed
Nice list. Loved AoF2 and SS2 in the arcades.
Re: Splatoon 2 Is Getting a New Map Tomorrow
Some bad memories of losing in Tower Control here. I still welcome all maps so I will try this new version.
Re: Splatoon 2’s Clam Blitz Update Is Now Live
Just bought The End is Nigh but I will definitely try this new mode tonight!
Re: Punching Robots (In 3D!) With The Virtual Boy's Teleroboxer
@rjejr
I just read both threads and I can definitely get how you feel. Sometimes it is hard to say which of the two sites has the more hostile people.
I had no idea that happened until you just told me. I have you on Twitter in any case you feel like leaving here too. Take care!
Re: Out Today: Pinball Galore and Edmund McMillen's Latest Arrive on the Switch eShop
Getting the Endmund is Nigh.
Re: Review: Mutant Mudds Collection (Switch eShop)
Getting this and The End is Nigh tomorrow.
Re: The Legend of Dark Witch 3 Gets Closer to a Full Reveal, With Switch Ports Possible
I only played the first one. Pull a Gunvolt and rerelease them on Switch before 3 hits, like Bayonetta.
Re: Feature: Five Reasons You Should Play Zelda: Breath of the Wild's DLC Pack 2
I finally have a reason to get it IF you play as the Champions as that was my wish since they announced it.
If not I will probably pass. I could buy Hellblade with that money just adding a couple bucks.
Re: Bayonetta 1 And 2 Are Getting A Special Edition Bundle With All The Trimmings
Hoping it is reasonably priced.
Re: The Legendary N-Zap '89 Is Coming To Splatoon 2 Tomorrow
@Alikan
Nope, but a lil cat will make fun of you when you lose
Re: The Legendary N-Zap '89 Is Coming To Splatoon 2 Tomorrow
I have been using the existing Zapper a lot lately so I will try this one.
Re: Review: Caveman Warriors (Switch eShop)
Getting it then.
Re: Bayonetta 3 is In Development and is a Switch Exclusive
Not a fan of rehashes but Bayo is Bayo. Bayo 3 is awesome news in any case.
Re: Floor Kids Dances Onto Switch Very Soon
Will wait for reviews.
Re: Pokémon, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and Nintendo Switch Lead the Way in Japanese Charts
Keep it up and Odyssey will hit a million and Splatoon 2 a million and a half before the year ends.
Re: Ninjara and Min Min Go Head-to-Head in the Next ARMS Party Clash
Didnt enjoy the first one so not sure I will join. I feel mostly like @nab1 so maybe ranked matches may do the trick like @OorWullie suggests. Splatoon 2 keeps getting all my online gaming time.
Re: Mega Man 11 Confirmed For Switch In 2018
@StuTwo
Thanks for mentioning Okami. A portable Okami would have been awesome.
Regarding this, I am excited. Of course giving us so many games will put pressure on 11 being great.
Thanks for doing something smart for once, Capcom. Keep it up.
Re: Talking Point: What Games Are You Playing This Weekend - Countdown to the Holidays
The usual: Splatoon 2 and Binding of Isaac Rebirth. Maybe a bit of Arms.
Re: Top Hunter Is Your Next Neo Geo ACA Release On Switch
Very fun couch co op game. Will get it.
Re: It's Going To Be Hard To Resist These Super Mario 3 Pin Badges
@Bunkerneath
Bowser is missing so that's one.
Re: Video: Meet the Crew in the Latest Floor Kids Gameplay Trailer
@Ryu_Niiyama
Your comparison seems spot on. I hope it delivers.
Re: Review: Koi DX (Switch eShop)
Review makes it sound like a poor man's Flower. Haven't tried it, though.
Re: Nintendo Download: 23rd November (North America)
I will get the SIime San demo as that one seems divisive. Still not sure about Revelations. In any case I would get 2, but as The Evil Within 2 is newer and just $10 more on PS4 for a limited time, I will get that instead.
Re: Caveman Warriors Will Take Us Back in Time on 5th December
Seems like a nice couch co op game. I am interested.
Re: ARMS Gets a Switch News Post Gift to Promote First 'Party Crash'
I saw this when I tried Misango. Always a RG fan so I may play for a while and then jump on Splatoon 2 on Friday.
Re: Review: RIVE: Ultimate Edition (Switch eShop)
Nice to have an early bird discount. This review seals the deal. Never finished a TT game but I bought them all.
