Glad it got a good review happy for everyone who is picking it up. Might be a me problem but I can't justify the price and the Nintendo Switch 2 game pricing makes me be more selective were as on the Nintendo Switch I'd buy all first party games.
I picked up Hades II physical at £37.99 just shipped and got Metorid Prime 4 pre-ordered at £49.99. So sadly I can't get Kirby as well.
Too expensive and with how much gaming costs on the Nintendo Switch 2. I have to be a lot more selective than I was before with buying games on the original Nintendo Switch.
I have these as a cheap replacement for the two pairs of joy cons I've had gone wrong one with drift the other left side stopped charging. Didn't want to spend another £60+ so these have been fine for £17. You made me think with that headline AI was spying on me 😅
Still have them all on GameCube and was planning on getting the Nintendo Switch version but now it's just a download cart and poor versions being sold at full price it's not worth it.
With game sizes getting bigger and the Switch 2 being cartridges based and the system being the next step up meaning bigger file sizes. I doubt that the game will even be on the cartridges if a physical release just be an activation cartridge to download the 100gb Mario Kart 9. Even the current Nintendo Switch a lot of the games aren't fully on the cart meaning you have to download part of the game meaning in 10/20 years time when you can no longer update it's just part of the game on a cartridge.
@Ryu_Niiyama Don't play that at the start terrible game loop you'll get stuck in you trolling?
Side note the review says "Bugs and infrequent crashes" after 5 hours of playing I have no problems to report.
It has difficult combat to learn and the life sim side of the game make it tougher to jump right into from the get go. The story is great though and it's perfectly playable on Switch.
@Dan420 I made the same stupid mistake went from a September 2023 release to Q1 2024 to Spring 2024 to now TBC 2024. Eschatos is also in limbo never again, fed up with limited Nintendo Switch physical companies.
Played over 30 hours on the Switch version it doesn't have as bad performance issues as this review is making out. The gameplay battle parts are smooth and not noticed anything. If being picky it has popin/out draw distance I think is the technical term in the city settings. You can notice slight frame rate dips but nothing in the important battle gameplay. The cut scenes look great and nice artwork and voice acting. If a fan of Fate series its a must play!
Is this a good game to jump back into Final Fantasy on the Nintendo Switch?
Last time I played Final Fantasy was 7 on the PS1. Seen the Nintendo Switch has pretty much every Final Fantasy game but lack the time to invest replaying all the games. This game a good to get me back into the world?
Played the Japanese version the other month as it had English. If you liked the first game you'll like this. Is it a AAA title no it's a indie game which is a bit overambitious but it has it's charm. 5/10 seems a bit harsh if you know what to expect and enjoy hack & slash games with RPG elements it's a 7/10. Think Senran Kagura without the lewdness.
www.thegamecollection.net has it for pre-order physically in the UK.
I have brought other THQ games on the Nintendo Switch and regretted it so awaiting reviews. It's a oldish game so sucks it's not a definitive edition with all the DLC. Does the base game even have much content?
Cotton Reboot has been the best game on Nintendo Switch so far from the Cotton series. I found Rock N' Roll Japanese title or Fantasy rest of the world a real step back in the series.
Will be code in a box for physical release and release full of bugs and then get patched to a level just about playable then ditched by the developer. It's been like that since they started to get released on the Switch in 2018, I found 2019 the most playable but worst graphics. 2020 and 2021 the graphics are much better but gameplay can be terrible and lots of bugs. Maybe 2022 will be the motorbike game for Switch we finally need and deserve.
This been confirmed to be coming to Europe or America? Only noticed the Japanese version available for pre-order. Hopefully some remakes or re-releases of other Senran Kagura games come to Nintendo Switch.
@Stocksy You can buy a Xbox 360 console and the Crysis games on eBay for less. Also Xbox and PlayStation got all three physical games on one disc for £38.00 or you can buy just the first Crysis on Nintendo Switch for £29.99 then wait for limited run to release the others currently list price for Crysis 2 is $39.99. I understand all the Switch TAX BS but come on this is clearly a rip off. And if anyone says its because the Switch is portable or cartridges cost more it's still not justified.
I want to play these games but the fact I can buy a Xbox 360 console and the Crysis games on eBay for less than it would cost me to play on Nintendo Switch just doesn't sit right with me.
I never managed to progress the story enough to hit the 40+ hour mark. I got two bad endings one which ended the game at 10 hours then the next at 15+ hours and couldn't be bothered to replay a load of the game to work out how to progress the story for it not to end.
I pre-ordered Game Paradise when it first went up was lucky enough to get a refund earlier this year. After making comments on Facebook page and contacting them by email a few times. I still get the emails regarding the games and if they want to send me the game digitally I welcome that.
Oddly enough the version by Dispatch Games of Game Paradise is up for pre-order on Play-Asia =
@Savino Maybe it's just me but apart from my phone I use the Switch as my main place to watch YouTube. So I'd welcome any apps added to the Nintendo Switch.
I did a quick Google for more information and even the drop down questions on Google are full of spoilers so be warned. It's aimed at adults and has adult themes with many good reviews. I'm still ordering and gonna play but frustrating I know some big spoilers by mistake.

Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Delivered An Excellent E3 Direct For Fans Old And New
My takeaway from the direct =
Cruis’n Blast = TBC
Danganronpa: Decadence = TBC
No news on Outer Wilds announced in February direct and said for release Summer 2021.
Nothing on =
Bayonetta 3
No More Heroes 3
I had too high hopes
Mario Odyssey 2
Mario Galaxy 2
StarFox
Donkey Kong
Mario Kart 9
F-Zero
Looking forward to these games in 2040. Sucks to not be a fan of Zelda.
