Puyo Puyo Tetris is really fun and now that I'm starting to understand how to set up in Puyo Puyo I can actually play the AI at medium difficult and stand a chance.

PuyoPuyo was known as Dr Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine in the 90s if you need to compare it to an earlier game.

I don't really get puyo puyo. I'm not really sure how I'm supposed to get a tetris equivalent that messes up the other person in the same way that getting a tetris clutters up my board with blocks.

There's a bunch of random strategies to it, when I started playing different AI I noticed they played Puyo Puyo differently, then when I suddenly got 4 or 5 chains going, it was loving great.

Cheap Japanese anime games have a small pool of talent willing to come in to do uncredited voices. As soon as they get a good SAG gig they stop returning calls.

Maybe fun's just not your thing. You always seem so angry.

I'm gonna get me some Puyo Puyo, some Mario Kart, some of that Arms, Splatoon, maybe Minecraft and see what the draw is with that game...

I'm happy.

The Puyo Puyo Tetris demo is out~

Also there is a super neat looking game that just released in the Japanese eShop called Kamiko

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MIJ65Itxlo

It's only 500 yen (~$5) and I'm seriously considering grabbing a 1000 yen eShop card to grab it as it has English language options.

Out of that entire direct the only games I am going to buy are Mario Kart 8 and Street Fighter 2 and I've already played both of these games on other platforms in the past.

Arms looks really bad. Splatoon is a no go because I'm not really in the market for a team based shooter. If I were to play Minecraft or Payday 2, Switch is certainly not the platform I would do it on.

Other than that, get hype for Monopoly and Rayman Legends again I guess.

Arms and Splatoon are not for me but there was a bunch of other stuff that I'm looking forward to like Mario Kart, Disgaea 5, Sonic, Puyo Puyo, Sine Mora, Rayman and Battlechasers. Your troll game is seriously weak and you should sell your switch to someone more deserving.

I've cracked the code. You never leave your house and as such, are continually discounting the #1 thing that makes Switch versions of games extremely desirable; portability.

So what? I don't think the line up is impressive, and I think Zelda, while cool and fun, has some serious issues that cause it to not be great. Its also not a Switch exclusive so it still begs the question of what exactly is there for games on Switch.

I don't understand why Nintendo threads on these forums always have to be hug boxes. It's like any kind of negative viewpoint is strictly prohibited for a constant stream of "how good is this? So good" posts.

I would be more excited about portability if the battery life was worth a drat, but as it is, it's not very effective as a portable system. Besides which, when I'm out and about, it's not usually to play video games. That's something I do when I'm at home.

I'm glad there's people that are excited to play 2 hours of minecraft outside of their house, but I can understand people being pretty underwhelmed by what was shown today.

I don't get why people talk about battery life so much when it's as good or better than 3ds in every metric. Also battery packs are everywhere.
