Uhhhh.... this makes me think back to the golden times with the Screamer series. Glorious PC racing days. Seems like this could scratch that itch to have Screamer again in my life. (Bought in on GOG but it's not the same anymore - a Screamer Switch Port would be awesome)
2019 BlizzCon will begin at 5:30 pm on Friday, 1 November and ends at 06:00 am on Sunday, 3 November. All times are in Central European Time. Sometime between those dates/times id say we'll know for sure.
I double dipped as I didn't get to finish this on PC. The game is awesome in terms of story, gameplay, and atmosphere! But I have to admit that the graphics are a real bummer. I guess it's because they tried to keep as many objects in the world as possible. On the other hand, I stopped playing Fire Emblem and can't stop playing this instead. Even if it sometimes looks like a pixel mess.
What if all this boils down to XBOX having a mobile device for streaming the XBOX catalog? That would blend even more into the whole "XBOX is a service" thing.
@PolarExperience Yeah, you could go with that description but I might add, that I'll double dip because this one has amazingly good narratives and a tiny bit more interaction/gameplay then only walking through beautiful sceneries. In short: it's an outstanding experience. But that's, of course, personal taste/opinion.
To all the "its a mobile game" guys: I played the mobile version like a madman - you know: that one without Turbo innit's name. And then I dropped it to play the Turbo version on Windows. HCT is a completely different game from the mobile one. At least for me. It's not just a few new modes, it's better handling more control more true arcade racing feel. You have to play both to get my point but $19.99 for this game is a very good price.
Well, if we Germans are doing something we do it right. In this case, it means: WE WANT THE TOTAL SYNCHRONIZATION!!! Yeah, tasteless but I think it's mildly funny.
Well, for this type of game I'm totally okay with that. In fact, they could have put the toy and a download code in the box and I would be okay with that too. I just hope that the game is as good as I hope....
In handheld mode, I don't see a problem. In docked mode, I had some drops that seem more notable than others but overall this game is rock solid IMHO. So.... chill everybody, I guess.
I have more than enough games to play. For example, I’m in love with Hand of Fate 2, stoked by the sheer craziness of Pool Panic, immersed into the vast world of Octopath Traveler but this name- and mouthless little sucker is constantly getting in the way of everything since the preload unlocked....
This one took me by surprise. I mean I'm currently knee deep into Octopath but then this came out, intrigued me, forced me to buy it and fast forward three hours and I'm still playing it... this is a really nice little gem.
This was a ”Day One” purchase for me and I have to say that I’m very very very impressed how well they ported this game to the Switch. Controls are great, gameplay is what it should be (and what one expects) but the biggest surprise for me was how stunning this looks and performs on the Switch hardware! It's actually exactly like on the screenshots - and I thought they where made with the desktop version....
@Eigotaku Yes, the 'Go' series would fit too. But there has to be new content. I played all the 'Go' games on iOS. They are great but I wouldn't go all over again.
I finally bought FIFA18 for the Switch and the most important part for me is: It's not that bad. I'm having a great time with it. But I have to admit, that I'm not a big FIFA gamer and I don't know how Ultimate Team and such should really work. So if those (and other parts) are only reduced for the Switch version I'm in the nice position to not even notice.
I supported more than 110 projects on Kickstarter and the likes. The most common trouble are delays in the reach of more than six months. Other than that I had 3 foul players (pebble being the greatest, damn fitibit....) Crowdfunding is a dangerous thing but for me, it was mostly rewarding so far. Now let's talk again when Pelda Pro arrives.

Re: Random: Online Petition Asks Elon Musk To Put The Cybertruck In Rocket League
I don't care as much for a Rocket League integration. But I really want to see this in Horizon Chase!
Re: Bulletstorm Just Blew Up On The Switch eShop, And Here's What It Looks Like
I'm so simple-minded... have Three Houses and Astral Chain on hold just because this is such a great simple cool as hell shooter.

Re: Arcade Racer Rise: Race The Future Speeds Onto Switch This Month
I'd like to see the rebirth of the Screamer series. Nuff said.

Re: Nintendo's UK Store Appears To Have Confirmed Mortal Kombat 11 Switch Delay In Europe
I'd say it's because of censorship needed in certain European countries. Shiver will need to alter the final us version - after that is golden.
Re: Cross-Play Might Be Added To Mortal Kombat 11, But There Are No Immediate Plans
I dont care right now. First I want to see some screens and gameplay videos of the switch version.
Re: The Darksiders Twitter Account Might Have Teased A Switch Release
Just release a trilogy edition. That way it would be okay for me to pay a price tag similar to Nintendo original releases.
Re: The Physical Edition Of Trüberbrook On Switch Sees The Return Of A Proper Game Manual
It's a nice thing. I'm a digital buyer normally but this lets me think about getting a physical edition.
Re: Review: Firewatch - There's No Smoke Without Fire In This Essential Indie Hit
It's a game, I love it, I have it on PC and I'll buy it on Switch.
Re: Rumour: German Retailer Lists Assassin's Creed Compilation For Nintendo Switch
Well, I guess the games in this compilation will be those three side-scrolling ones: https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/game/assassins-creed-chronicles/. But that's only my guess and I'd still buy them because to some extent those are solid games.

Re: Out Run Is The Next Sega AGES Title Racing Onto The Switch eShop
Guess they have to ride the Horizon Chase hype-train.

Well, if we Germans are doing something we do it right. In this case, it means: WE WANT THE TOTAL SYNCHRONIZATION!!! Yeah, tasteless but I think it's mildly funny.
Re: Campo Santo Co-Founder Says Firewatch Is "Very Close" To Release On Switch
Shut up and take my money! Instant buy for me. No better walking simulator out there to play while walking in the woods...
Re: Starlink: Battle For Atlas Physical Release Will Require A 6GB Day One Update
Well, for this type of game I'm totally okay with that. In fact, they could have put the toy and a download code in the box and I would be okay with that too. I just hope that the game is as good as I hope....
Re: Fantasy Strategy Game Armello Arrives On Switch At The End Of The Month
I was hoping that day would come. Nice! A insta-buy for me.
Re: A Patch For Morphies Law Has Been Submitted To Nintendo To Fix Online Issues
Well, I love it and I know there is something wrong with me but I don’t even mind the early day problems as long as the dev is responsive.
Re: DOOM Eternal's Protagonist Is Faster And More Powerful Than Ever Before
Faster you say? Sounds like a 3D DeadCells to me.
Re: Motion Twin Apologises For Frame Rate Drops In Switch Version Of Dead Cells
In handheld mode, I don't see a problem. In docked mode, I had some drops that seem more notable than others but overall this game is rock solid IMHO. So.... chill everybody, I guess.
Re: Review: Okami HD (Switch eShop)
Another 9?! The more the better... I guess.

Re: Review: Manticore: Galaxy On Fire (Switch eShop)
On mobile, this thing is the worst with its in-app purchases. So I don't think you can compare those two...
Re: Horizon Chase Turbo Could Be Speeding Towards Nintendo Switch
@ThanosReXXX Thanks for that video.... you made me cry - in a goog way.
Re: Horizon Chase Turbo Could Be Speeding Towards Nintendo Switch
I was sooooooo hoping this would come to the switch. Loved it on my phone! Day one for me too...
Re: Call Of Duty: Black Ops 4 Is Officially Announced, But There's No Switch Version
If a CoD is coming to switch I think it’ll be Modern Warfare. It’s old enough, had a remaster lately and is considered one of the best CoDs around.
Re: Feature: 7Levels Has Its Finger On The Pulse With Castle Of Heart
@Eigotaku Yes, the 'Go' series would fit too. But there has to be new content. I played all the 'Go' games on iOS. They are great but I wouldn't go all over again.
Re: Feature: 7Levels Has Its Finger On The Pulse With Castle Of Heart
But seeing this let's me ask myself why not porting Assassins Creed Chronicles to the Switch?
Re: Heavy FIFA 18 Switch Discount Sends The Footie Franchise to Number One in The UK Charts

Re: Rumour: Ridge Racer 8 Could Be Exclusively Drifting Onto Nintendo Switch
It's about time for a good racer on switch. No, Rocket League is no racer!
Re: Fez For Wii U Is Highly Unlikely Unless Nintendo Pays For It
So, it's on iOS by now - how about a port for the Switch?
