If you wanna trully enjoy the open world you have to remap controls so you can use the camera (right stick) while you accelerate (or you can use the hori wheel + joycon hack)

Nahhh!! This is the best control scheme (hori wheel + joycon)

Those of you who enjoy this game should also try Eternal Radiance on the Switch. It's cheaper, with the dialog more in a VN style and gameplay is very similar, though the game may be shorter (also pantsu). If any of you know any other game similar to these 2 please let me know.

There is a trick to make the textures look better. Play at 200cc with a wheel xD.

And if you can use a wheel that comes with a shift stick (so you can drive with only one hand on the wheel) then they "look" even better.

Anyway.... MK Home Circuit still plays better than MK 8. It has more realistic graphics, infinite courses, FPV, and the driving mechanics feel better (if you are drifting and stop accelerating, you can still mantain the drift, which feels better than having to brake during the drift, specially if you are playing using pedals).

Did I see it right?? Can you choose "team ranked" even if you are playing solo?? Does it mean you can choose between 2 competitive modes to play when playing solo??

Ah.... gonna pass. This os not the way to go. Instead of tunning down the resolution (which is horrible when it is constantly changing) design the game with less graphical details so it can run at 60fps 720p on handheld (even if it ends up looking like a gamecube game). I'd rather it be sharp and smoth with less details than low resultion high details with bad fps.

Sakurai as a character please!!

Maje a definition that includes handhelds but exclude Smartphones. If under your definition a Smartphone is a console, then tour definition is wrong. Same goes for PC.

@AndreaF96 that would be a counterfit copy. It doesnt use the original materials but it imitates the product to the point where it can be confused with the original. Still ilegal.

It would be easier if those passionate develepors had to give take-two 90% of whatever they earn because of the game. Or if take-two foeced them to charge X dollars for the game, with take 2 earning 90%.

My point is that if that there were laws that allowed these games to exist as long as they paid a "tax" for copyright per download it would make things much easier. And it qould be an ofdicial great way for artists/developers to show their talent to companies.

What a message for the day the game releases. Thanks for your dedication to this final entry. Travis strikes again wasn't that great for me, but NMH 1 and 2 are 2 of my all time favorite games, even more since the switch HD releases.

Travis doesnt fit in our modern day era where everything might sound offensive, so I am really looking forward to playing it. I do hope it's as good or even better than 1 and 2. It would be great to have a trilogy of such quality.

@nukatha I dont think it works that way, cause it will also mean that those fewer investor will also have more decision making power (which is contrary to what was expressed in the article).

When it comes to solo "campaign" games, I always thought it was first Mario, Then Zelda and then Pokemon.

It would be cool if qe had those figures for solo franchises:
Sales for
1) Breath + Aeakening + Skyward
2) lets go + shiel/sword
3) odissey + new deluxe + 3d world

Who do you think would win then??

@BreathingMiit exactly, it will turn into a brick that will allow you to build a stable house xD

Playing it now. The first 10 minutes already show a much more cool Zelda and Link than any other game.

Did RE4 end up getting motion controls (RE 5 and 6 received the update, and Rev. also has it... but what about 4?)

Question: does it have resolution drops?? I love Lacrimosa, but the resolution drops were terrible, sometimes goig down to 480p or below.

Wanna a know the truth?? This revision was set to launch last year in october, before next gen consoles.
However since the pandemic and the animal crossing effect sold ton of switches, nintendo was in no hurry to release it (specially taking into account that for most part of the year there were shortages on electronics).

So yeah,it might feel weird because we are getting this "tiny" revision a year late and because videogame news sites were so bored that they had to constantly insist on a new switx coming.
I mean, come on, websites like this one have "told" us since summer 2017 that an improved switch was around the corner.

Good journalist would apoligise for creating more than 20 articles based on rumors that they assumed would become truth eventually in some form. But they have not. This new revision has nothing to do with anything switch pro related (as the switch pro communicated by videogame news websites)

In addition, there will be no switch pro. A next gen switch?? Maybe, but not a switch pro (in the sense of a New 3ds).

Programing for switch is already hard because it's underpowered and you have to optimize for tv and for handheld. Imagine having a pro switch, it would mean that developers would have to program for 4 different kinds of display (4k tv, and 1080p handheld for switch pro, and 1080p tv and 720p for handheld, and yeah, 1080p tv and 1080p handheld would need different optimizations).

So having to optimize for 4 displays just to release the game on one console could be the death of switch.

Switch pro makes no sense, next gen switch does, and we are still far away from it (we will get it when prime 4 comes, which will be a launch game for next gen switch, like breath for wii u and switch.

Source... who cares, it's valid as any other switch pro source, aka, wishful thingking+imagination.

People have mental budgets associates to different needs. The fun/entertainment is one of them, and in deppendence on how passionate you are about fun/entertainment products, you choose what percentage of your wealth you assign that budget.

As an easy market rule, that gives a somehow "objective value" of that entertaiment/fun, we have movie theaters. For about 10 euros you can enjoy 1 hour and a half of entertainment (not replayable). So if a game lasts about 2 h and it offers you an equal level of fentertainment/fun as a "good movie" (that is, one you dont regret paying for after you have watched it) then the game "can" cost at least 10 euros. Lowering that price will make it more competitive, but that choice will depend on the sellers. If the game offers you a lot more fun than a good movie then it "could" charge you more.

All of this oviously deppends on the willingness of people to pay for it, and most of the time the problem is that instead of taking into account how much the hour and quality of fun will cost you, they take into account how much the alternatives/competitors charge you for it.

That said, if 2d game are not your thing, then the game will not offer you that fun and it wont make sense to paid that much for it.

But there is no rule that says that 3d games are more fun than 2d games, or that big budget games (or movies) are more fun and entertaining than the low budget ones. That oviously will deppend on what you like.

So for 2d platformer exploration lovers, if the game last 20 hours, you could pay up to 100 euros or more.

BoW is long and entertainig, but I had tons of more fun with ocarina, majorask and Skyward. So i qould still pay more for those games than for BoW.

Concluding: for me a good game (good fun for me) can cost about 5 euros per hour, a very good game can cost 10, and an exelent game maybe 15 or 20. (And i am basically talking about campaign games here, multiplayers can never end, so the logic is a bit different).

In any case, is it worth 50 bucks?? Well, the answer is simple... Nobody can know yet. Until we play the game or see reviews and more videos it is impossible to say.

Once qe have that info, if enough people pay the 60 euros to cover game cost and expected return for Nintendo, then yeah, the game is worth 60 because the market to which it is caterdd is willing to pay it.

If only 10 people in the world are willing to pay 60, then it is not worth it, because it qont achieve nintendo sells expectations, even if for you it is worth 300 euros.

Super Sayan Cat Mario.... Ok, I'm sold to the expansion... However, I already played alot the Wii U version, so unless the expansion offers at least 5 additional hours of game, I am not paying the full price.

Only 6 Nintendo games and 4 of them are Ports....

Animal Crossing and Clubhouse are the only new ones...

This is a big reason to complain... However, my backlog of games is so big that I don't really care.... I prefer it this way than how it was for the wii u

I'm starting to get tired of all the comments of supposed Nintendo suporters who keep on blaming Nintendo fanboys who deffend Nintendo.

Do you even know what a limited run means?? Since always, limited edition games have been you know, LIMITED. Being limited makes them feel more like treasures. You've got the Zelda collection for GC, Mario All-stars for wii, kirby anyversary for wii....
And you know what?? If you did not get a copy you could never play that "collection". It's how it has always been. If they weren't limited they wouldn't feel so special.

So then, regarding 3D All-Stars as another limited collection, Nintendo could have just done as always and only launch it phisically. But Nintendo wanted to be more "pro-consumer" and also decided to launch it digitally. However, if the digital version is forever in the eshop, then the "limited collection" wouldn't really feel like a "treasure". Therefore it only makes sense that it's on the eshop for a limited time.

People instead of thinking
"Wow, this collection, as others annyversary collections, could have been only physical, but Nintendo is being cool enough to also sell it for a period of time in the eshop",
think
"what?? Nintendo is so anti consumer for pulling this game out of the eshop after a limited time period, they are super greedy because they only care about you spending your money on their games, and they are super stupid because they could make more money if they did not pull it out of the eshop"

For this limited collection, anyone who wants it right know can buy it. If you want it you can get it, but people here seem to complain and fight for the right of some "supposed majority gamers" who dont want the game now and will want it after March and will get pissed because after march the game wont be available (as it has happened in the past with all limited esitions for those who come late)

@Mr_Humpf thanks a lot man. I'll try it out.

Sounds nice... But does it still run at 30 fps??

So did Famitsu have anything to say about the frame rate?? Is the final product the same as the demo??

Can someone remind me how to get this in Europe??

Nah... Will wait for a discount on Need for Spped or AoC. No More Heroes 1 and 2 will last me all month.

Hell yeah!! I played both on a moded Wii so I could play the uncensored versions. I love both of them, althogh I remember 2 being bettet than one (basically because you don't loose time walking in Santa Destroy) so I just bought the second one for the Switch to get a bit ready for 3. However, after 30 minutes of playing it, I was amazed by how good it played, so I went back to the eshop and purchased the first one so I can relive both of them with this new quality.

These games are unique, and it's amazing that a game with the tone of No More Heroes is so tied to Nintendo. We gotta thank the wiimote and the joycon for that luxury. And sorry switch mini owners.... The game is playable in handheld, but it lacks the satisfaction of motion blows, which in my opinion is one of the mechanics that makes the gameplay of this game so addicting.

I will just say that I am glad we were able to get No More Heroes 1 and 2 for the Switch without having to go through all this censorship battle.

I played the game a lot during summer (handheld mode). But every 3 matches all bullets would become invisible for me.
My brother played in TV mode and every 3 matches he would get kicked out mid match.

The buggy beta (with no fixes in those issues) ended up being to painful for our patience. Does anyone know if those bugs are fixed??

30 fps for a Racing game?? I'd rather not have the high res textures and have 60 fps.

Or at least they could have added the option to choose performance or visuals.

Speed at 30 fps seems slow. Sonic Racing is the great example.

I was really looking forward to this game, but until there isnt an option for 60 fps I wont buy it.

If Mario and Miyamoyo had a kid, it would look like the magazine dude.

His expression is very Mario. I call Cannon.

Sounds like the Pachinko side of the company is the only one that makes real money. If the investement they can make on panxiko machines by selling their videogames divisions is worthy, then they will sell it

Come on guysss!! This is the closest to mario kart maker that we have gotten.
Can you simply imagine using your creativity to build a track with domino effect parts?? For expample, on passing the first curve you know down a toy that then knocks down several other toys in succession until the last part falls making a bridge that you have to pass over in order to reach the goal. Im super hipped, even if controls arent great. Being able to use your imagination to build circuits which you can drive on TV with a mario kart layer is simply amazing.

Open world Mario games take away part of the fun I find in Mario Games.

Here is my order:

Galaxy 2 (best 3d mario ever, fun fun fun)

3d land (fell in love with the 3d effect and how it was used)

Galaxy 1 (close to galaxy 2, but the world for selecting worlds killed its pace)

3d world (close to 3d land, although I dont like the cat powerup. Great for co-op)

Odissey (very fun to beat, but too boring to wanna complete)

Sunshine (a lot more fun than expected)

64/ds (poorly aged... An Ocarina remake style for the 3ds could have changed my mind)

Correct if I am wrong, but they way I understood the announcement was that the collection/bundle is limited to march, meaning that the games will be available to purchase separately in the eshop after march.

The cool Carrera RC Mario Kart cost 70€, so taking into account the camera it is not a bad price.

You cab check out the Carrera RC licenses version here (which has been out for a while): https://www.carrera-toys.com/es/product/370162107-24ghz-mario-karttm-mario-race-kart-con-sonido

my guess is that they will pull it out and bundle it exclusively with the new switch, which is rumored to launch or be announced at the time they are pulling the games out. Just guessing.

Galaxy 2 will be trully remastered (updated textures) and launch aside the new switch to demonstrate its upgraded power. Just dreaming.

The trylogy has a limited purchase time because afterwards they will be included exclusively with the upgraded switch.

I mean... They are pulling them out when the new switch is suposed to come out. Also, the pro realease will be accopanied by the remaster of Galaxy 2 (with updated textures) that will demo the better quality of the new switch.

I would be funny if Ash evolved his pikachu into raichu, and then another one of those pikachus became his new companion (leaving raichu behind with the group of pikachus), so nothing would really change aside from the internet hate.

Just release Mario Allstars on the snes app and ad Allstars style to mario maker. That is a good enough annyversary for me. I can wait for the 3d mario collection if it means better visuals and other improvements and polishings.

I tried to buy Raji but the eshop keeps giving me an error. I won't even let me change the credit card. Is it just me??

Please keep motion controls (even if optional)!

I totally dislike Apple, but correct me if I am wrong:

• If Epic wins this battle, then doesn't it mean that all app developers could choose to make their apps free to download and then charge once you open the app so you could use it (meaning that apple would never see a cent)?

@wjcarl Though the same thing, even Iniesta is on the pic.

@Ventilator I love when Ivan lights up his cigarrets in Devils Third. I do miss smoking in games. Killing in games is OK, ***** up stories are ok, but smoking is a crime, and when it appears in games people feel the need to protest. So incoherent!!

@WhiteTrashGuy it has CS feel to it, with some Slatoon flavor also. I am having lots of fun with it. And at the same time it has its own identity. Feels very fresh and addictive.

@WhiteTrashGuy great to know, thanks. I'll give it a try next time Rogue Company servers are down.

I don' t really care if it looks inferior to other versions. I just wanna know if on handeld mode the game is blurry (like witcher, oninaki or YS when resolution drops).

Have they preserved graphic details at the price of more blurryness or does the game look sharp like Bullestorm??

If it looks as good as Bullestorm and has no blurryness then I'll purchaee it. If they have decided to prioritize details instead of non blurryness then its a no no.

Can anyone confirm if it looks sharp and crisp on handheld?? Or does it look blurry like witcher 3 (even with the sharp option enabled)??

I trully would love it to run like Bulletstorm (if it does I am purchasing it right away), but the specified resolutions did not seem to make it possible.

@beazlen1 I get your point, and yeah, as I said, as long as there no gameplay lag anything can be played / enjoyed if you are willing to deal with. However I disagree on your las point. For me a propper port would have meant cutting down details in order to avoid the blurryness. I bought the witcher full price, and after a while playing on handeld I had to stop because the blurryness was bothering my eyes and giving me a headache. Later they released the patch with the sharpness fix but it still didnt fix enogh the issue. Which means that for me the game is unplayable on handheld. And regarding SI port, I can not applaude them because they prioritized details over non blurryness, which is a bad aproach as I explained before. You enjoyed the game because it is a good game, but without blurryness you would have probably enjoyed it more, which means that SI made a bad decision when prioritizing details. What is the point of keeping details if they are blurry??

The problem is that many games are doing the same, and is not something we should support. Or at least that is how I feel about it (taking into account my own experience).

NL could make a poll to see if we users prefer detail o non blurryness and that would be the best conclusion (I guess)
