I'm selling my good Switch now so I can buy a bad Switch later.

That's right, little buddy. It's alive and well on a big farm upstate where it can run and play virtual console games all day.

I'm doing the same thing, friend. Except I've already bought Minecraft twice.

the true versatility of the switch is that it can *click* switch between a good and bad console at all times, truly making it four consoles in one

I'm still playing Zelda, 110+ hours in, and it's still amazing. I want to buy MK8 but I know as soon as I do, Zelda is over until DLC. So I am going to achieve the goals I want in Zelda first and then buy MK8. Switch rules.

What? Just give her your amiibos to play with sing Epona's song to her and look up from the switch every 20 minutes or so, she'll be fine and most likely wont break off Mario's hand and choke on it while you play.

I might do the same. I've never played Minecraft, but I've seen enough of it to get it, and Dragon Quest Builders was fun enough in the scavenge-build-fight loop. I'm not pooping on any of my electronics, though. I really need a chill game on the Switch, and everything I own so far (MK8D, Isaac, Zelda, Metal Slug, Puyo Puyo Tetris) is the polar opposite of relaxing.

Man, last night I decided to finally pop into Rito village after initially passing it by... then, within an hour, I had cleared the Divine Beast. To be honest though it was pretty nice to have a really straightforward one after the camel and the elephant.

Wandering around the outside of the beasts as they roam around the world is both disorienting and seriously incredible.

EDIT: Oops, wrong thread. Zelda chat is ok though I guess!

I'm visiting Europe in August and holy gently caress is this infuriating. I've been saving my last 15 shrines in BotW just for those flights. I might try storying the joycons separately from the Switch itself in my carry-on and hope security mistakes it for a large phone.

Sonys games for the rest of the year are going to be

Crash trilogy
Wipeout collection
Yakuza kiwami
Uncharted 4 standalone expansion
Days gone
Maybe knack 2 but probably see it after new year

Their fall is really all about activision marketing deals though with destiny and codww2 so expect a lot about both in their e3. They are gearing up to sell a lot of games and consoles on that alone.

Gow is a spring 2018 game
Death stranding and tlou2 are going to stretch past next e3

They've had an incredible 6 months and some big stuff still coming at a less frantic pace, i laughed at the post you quoted acting like they failed 2017

That was my post he quoted. I wasn't trying to argue a poor 2017 for Sony. This spring was one of the best stretches of awesome video games that I can remember in my lifetime and holiday season seems weak in comparison.

tbh asking what games a system has coming out later in the year a month before E3 happens is really dumb regardless of the system.

It's true that there's often awesome titles that sneak up, but most Huge AAA releases are shown off more than 6 months in advance unless they are an annual series.
