Splatoon 2 isn't a port. Your insistence that it is just makes you sound ridiculous. The easy way you can see it isn't a port is it's called Splatoon 2.

Utnayan posted:I am not saying it isn't going to sell. I am sure it will. I am sure it will be a fun and fantastic game just like the original. That statement was made in contrary to someone saying it was a brand new game (It isn't. It's a port with added features listed in my post) I do disagree it will be a system seller. It will sell into the base. It has new stages, new single player campaign, new weapons, new music, new items, new multiplayer features. But it's not a new game. Gotcha. Again, your posts aren't worth reading.

My favorite port of all time is probably Mario Galaxy 2. They were so lazy that they didn't even bother porting it to a different system!

I wish that they'd stop producing ports of those Call of Duty games, literally making ports that are on the same console is so lazy.

Mario Kart 8 was the best-selling Wii U game by far, don't underestimate its appeal.

Is this a new thread game where we pretend we lost the part of our brain that can comprehend iterative design? Because Assassin's Creed Brotherhood was a really lazy port of Assassin's Creed 2.

RZA Encryption posted:I went to 4 stores last night including two targets and couldn't find any. Got a nice hori hard case at Fry's, though. Motherfucker it's cold outside! And yes, I saw none in stock online for Target stores until about 10pm. Targets closed at Midnight, and so I crossed my fingers they would have them at opening. Segue: Holy poo poo. I really wanted to like Zelda, but Handheld mode doesn't work well for me (I got big hands, I need more action in my analog sticks... etc etc) and TV mode with the Joycon grip was only Marginally better. Pro Controller has solved all of that. I am so happy. Zelda is not tedious and difficult for me. I am a beast in it now! I will say, my hope now layeth in an improvement on TV docked mode's performance. Any word on that from anyone?

FireMrshlBill posted:Agreed, it definitely has more potential than the WiiU, but they need to fix the joycon and push games out to maintain interest/hype. It will do better than the WiiU either way. I actually don't know if a scaled down handheld-only switch would make much of a difference for dedicated handheld players, and would probably muddy the waters because that would essentially be a dedicated 3DS successor, and not a Switch at all really. I don't really see anybody keeping their 3DS in their pockets, it's mostly nestled away in a bookbag or a satchel or something, where people also keep their tablets. I think it's mostly about traditionally handhel IP's coming over. They do need to fix the hardware issues though. I haven't encountered any of them, including desync, but I've definitely read enough about them to know it's a thing.

It's not an expansion pack because it's got all that new stuff in the multiplayer plus has a full single player campaign. Unless we're calling Titanfall2 an expansion pack?

HyperPuma posted:do people really want to be comparing splatoon to call of duty and madden? Yes, when discussing multiplayer heavy games with smaller gameplay changes between each new game. But Splatoon2 has the bonus of not cheesing annual releases and is on an entirely new system.

Let's think of other unjustly-priced games that claim to be sequels, but are actually full price expansion packs. Super Mario World was definitely just SMB 3 with high-rez graphics and some new powerups. I think if Gamefreak weren't a bunch of INDU$TRY $HILLS, then Sun/Moon could have easily been a New Game+ for XY. Am I doing it right?

I skipped on the Wii U but I did play some MK8 and I almost bought one for it so you bet your rear end that I'm hyped for the deluxe edition on April 28th.

I think it's mostly about traditionally handhel IP's coming over. Probably true. I just think of my own scenarios when traveling and having to stuff my stuff and part of my kid's stuff into my backpack that I take on planes. My 2DS, 3DS and Vita cases all fit in the front pocket of my backpack. That Switch case takes up about 3x the room. Also, kids usually have smaller backpacks and 1/2 of it would be dedicated to a Switch vs a smaller portion for a 2DS/3DS. That may be a smaller portion of the market for handhelds than I am thinking it is and so the Switch may take over. Just something that makes me doubt it taking over the handheld market. Maybe I am also secretly hoping for that Switch mini concept to become the revived Gameboy line.

Wheany posted:, a game also available on Wii U (a console which I ALSO didn't own and would have had to buy, but used.) I totally should've bought that Fisher Price dead console to play one game instead of the brand new one that I can play wherever the gently caress I want.

I'm sure this thing is going to extraordinarily well amongst service members. When I was in the navy drat near half my boat carried around a [3]DS with Pokémon in it and there was always either an Xbox or PlayStation hooked up in the mess. If I were still in you're drat right I'd want to play Zelda in the rack.

Tbqh if you haven't owned a WiiU at all I would recommend Super Mario 3D World New Super Mario Bros U (really more New Super Luigi U which has some great rear end levels and is not a cakewalk) Captain Toad Treasure Tracker Pikmin 3 Super Mario Maker (if your not a fan of random levels without themed worlds then probably stay away) Bayonetta 2 Wonderful 101

I'm gonna buy MK8 again for the Switch, and I never did play Splatoon so even if it was a port, I'd still get it anyway. The only reason I never got it for the WiiU is because I don't have any friends who have one, and I don't really want to play exclusively with randos.
