No joke, this is a pretty amazing release schedule for the 1st year, and I'm not even terribly interested in ARMS or Pokken. Yeah, BOTW and MK8DX were essentially also available on WiiU, but throw in Splatoon 2, Mario/Rabbids (jury's out till reviews come in, but it does look good) and Mario Odyssey, plus ARMS and Pokken if you're into fighters (or whatever you want to call ARMS), FE Warriors if you're into Musou games and Xenoblade if you're into anime (and man, who isn't?) I do hope they can keep this variety of releases up, even if it's "padded" with smaller eShop titles like Snipperclips. Some of those smaller eShop games on 3DS (like Pocket Card Jockey, BoxBoyx3, Pushmo and all the Picross-e games) were fantastic.

I personally can't wait for Sonic Mania. It's one of the reasons I bought the switch, it's the perfect platform for it.

With Nintendo's strategy of only showing off this year's games as E3, I wonder if we'll start seeing yearly big Directs in December/January to highlight what's in the pipeline for Q1/Q2. Although maybe TGS covers some of that?

Real hurthling! posted:Lol is there a single game someone has said isn't perfect for switch? Its a meme now. I mean it's basically a portable WiiU which means it can handle most if not all of your beloved stupid indie games, that alone makes people say "wow just put loving everything on it." Saying that didn't always make sense with the 3DS due to the cramped resolution and/or power. i.e. "Superhot would be perfect for Switch, because motion control. Insert Metroidvania Here would be great on Switch. I'd love for Dragonball Fighter Z on a portable system....like Switch"

The reason their output is so much higher, Reggie has said, is because of a lot of expansion in game development over the last few years centered on the completion of a giant new building for software development in Kyoto and they've hired a lot of bodies to fill that building.

Nintendo may just have the most profitable holiday period ever. Between Pokemon on DS, with Switch getting Mario and an instant 2-player Rocket League at what may be the peak of the game's popularity, they're going to be moving a lot of units. If your kids want to play Rocket League, the switch is probably the cheapest machine that can run it, and it comes with two controllers.

well why not posted:If your kids want to play Rocket League, the switch is probably the cheapest machine that can run it, and it comes with two controllers. PS4/Xbone plus a second controller is the same price. Also I'm not sure Rocket League is a system seller for anybody. It's a nice game to have if you already own a system.

Jonas Albrecht posted:The Switch is gonna have its own ecosystem. I know Nintendo wants every big title they can get, but that's not really on the horizon. We're gonna get ports, indies, and publisher side projects first. One thing to remember is despite a very strong launch year, it's still a launch year. Most third-party studios aren't really going to have anything at a stage they can show off/demo until around e3 next year at the earliest.

We might get Dragon Ball FighterZ if there is "demand" for it. While Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 might be OK, FighterZ really grabbed my attention for the over-the-top approach to the 2D fighter genre. The game runs on the Unreal Engine, and since the producer said the hardware isn't an issue... Why isn't it coming to the Switch yet? I guess some 3rd party publishers are still taking a "wait and see" approach to the Switch.

Wait and see in Japan is code for bribes Keep in mind the only reason Monster Hunter went to Nintendo in the first place is that Iwata gave Capcom millions of dollars just after the 3DS launched. So when a dickhead like Capcom or Namco or Koei say wait and see with Nintendo platforms they really mean either the consumerz buy our lovely ports or Nintendo should bribe us.

I'm jazzed for RL. I think Psyonix mentioned that it will be 720p and 60fps so that is all good news in my opinion. I don't expect it to have split screen on tabletop mode though. Don't think it will be possible and even if it was it might compromise the game having the screen split. Still absolutely going to buy that on digital. So far BotW is the only game I own on cart. Digital: Has Been Heroes (7/10) MK8D (10/10) Arms (8/10) Mr. Shifty (6/10) Turf Masters (8/10) Graceful Explosion Machine (7/10) Minecraft (7/10) Fast RMX (7/10) Binding of Isaac (8/10) Master Blaster (8/10) That is a shitload of cool games for a console that is 3 months old.

turn left hillary!! noo posted:I took a look at those and I have a question about the Surge ones (joycon grips, since this is from a couple pages ago). The FastSnail ones have big looking SR and SL buttons, but the Surge ones don't. What makes them still better, just the way they feel in your hands or something? I'm probably going to bite on the FastSnail ones because they look like God's own controller, the GameCube. The SL/SR buttons are in a pretty good spot on the Surges. I do wish they were bigger, though. The FastSnail ones are really comfortable, but have a lot of travel on the SL/SR buttons. I found that a little problematic for Mario Kart. Either's a good choice, really. The Surge ones are more portable and sit well in the hand, kind of like a modernized retro controller. The FastSnail sit more like a traditional modern controller.
