I personnaly liked it but I really miss the ''city'' styles of Adventure 2 for example. I felt like after a little while, the whole world felt a bit drab ... generic and empty. The controls were not quite tight as well expecially in the cyberspace levels. Otherwise a great game. Great sound track!
James bond from Golden eyes with remote mines, grenade launcher and the golden gun as final smash. They also announce that the n64 games will be on the n64 online service!
@Zeldafan79 Ritual of the Night is an excellent game. On my opinion, much better than Curse of the Moon 2. I understand that the switch version is a bit of a let down but the game was originally planned for WiiU, the team had to change their plan last minutes. They did well with the rescources they had.
I totally get what you mean. Personnaly, I prefered the gameplay of Forces since 06 was SO full of bugs and ... almost unplayable at moment. But it is true that the story was much more interesting in 06. Forces was empty. Just a shell of what Unleashed and Generations have been. Those two games were the best.
This could be the direct sequel to BOTW that everyones talk about. Monolith was involved in the last game, they could totally help ninty in several ways for the sequel.
I saw on a review on youtube that you can use Start+ A,B,X or Y to change from Switch to Xinput to Dinput and to Android. Does this mean that I can sync my controller with my switch, my PC and my cellphone at the same time and switch from one to the other just by using this shortcut ?
It looks perfect. Pixel sprite could have been great as well but not 8bit sprites. A job like Inticreate does with Azure Striker Gunvolt would have been nice. I liked the fact that a lots of things have eyes like past games. For example, the huge pyramid in the baground at the start of the trailer has eyes.
I'm surprise to see so many people asking for gamecube vc. Does people realise that most good GC games used analog trigger which are not available on Switch ... (Sunshine, Fzero, Metroid etc...)
@Ryu_Niiyama I understand your point but i'm pretty sure the decision to make the switch has been taken a long while ago. They just waited to announce it. They probably never really developped the WiiU since they knew a new platform was coming. WiiU was not compatible with Unreal Engine 4 after all and it was a complicated version for this reason. Now things are much more simple for them. Off course, it is sad since they had promise it but i think it make sense overall.
@carlos82 I do agree but, In the past, i worked as a video game retailer and on launch we used to have around 10 consoles 2005-2006. (about 10 wii, 7 x360 and only 1 PS3). Yesterday, i went to this old place and the guy told me they had 60 Switch at launch. It is a lot more. If Ninty was able to shift that many consoles all around the world, then i guess it is normal that it is easier to find.
I'm surprise to see so many folks still wishing for a gamecube VC. The controller has no Analog triggers. Most popular games used these. I would like to have one but seriously, I don't see it hapening. I suppose Nint could release a bunch of joycon made specifically for this, but it breaks the concept ''play everywhere, anytime''. I don't see myself bringing with me a Switch and two pair of joycon only to play GC games.... Sad!
@MysticX Well, i don't have a tablet no and I really do hope the Switch will have its web browser eventually. I often travel for work and to bring one gizmo to play and surf the web would be much conveninent.
@Bunkerneath Well, from a scientific point of view you are wrong. It is true that the Y scale means nothing concretly but it still shows the comparison between these two.
That would be really kool but let's not forget that the Switch has a 6.2in. screen with a 720P resolution. Using the switch like a cell phone on a headmount would put screen really close to our eyes meaning we would see a lot of pixel. Even the HTC Vive dost that and it has a 1080x1200 resolution at 90fps. That is my only concerns. Off course, I know Nintendo will find something as they always do but I do not think simply putting the switch on a headmount will do.
I'm surprise, for me it's a very sad news. I often travel for works and for me, the Switch is really interesting. I was totally looking to get one so that I would not have to bring anything else to browse the web and look at my emails. Seriously, that browser on the WiiU will miss me !
Can anyone confirm if we can play 4 local player on a same switch like we used to ? I know it's possible to use up to 8 switch but what about 4 player on the same machine ?
Anyone thought that the Switch could easily be used for VR like a Samsung GEAR VR. Put the switch in a mount, strap it to your face and use the two joycon as a controller. It could be really impressive to use it with a Metroid Prime title !
Anyone noticed if there is trigger or buttons on the controller ? I miss thoses good old trigger from the GC era. It was important for games like F-Zero ...
It's also important pointing out that a cartridge will probably consumes LESS ENERGY that a optical disc reader which is something very important for a portable system (if the rumor are to be believed off course).
I still think however that we don't have the full picture yet. Many times, nintendo said that the NX is not only a console but a platform (I know the difference is thin but...). Iwate himslef said that it would have many form factor. It's thus not impossible to see both, disc for a home console only, cartridge for a portable version of the same game, but that would be a very VERY bad move. My point is only that still have no ideas what is the NX beyond some rumor and that the NX might be something much bigger than we think.

Re: Wall Street Journal Reports That Nintendo NX Will Indeed Use Flash-Based Game Cards
It's also important pointing out that a cartridge will probably consumes LESS ENERGY that a optical disc reader which is something very important for a portable system (if the rumor are to be believed off course).
I still think however that we don't have the full picture yet. Many times, nintendo said that the NX is not only a console but a platform (I know the difference is thin but...).
