Manky posted:That and the two Wii U titles to already get "DX" Switch ports (Mario Kart, Pokken) That's not really meaningful evidence though. Unless you think Nintendo is going to port over every single Wii U title. All it really means is that any Wii U port isn't off the table, not evidence that they will do any specific [insert game here] port. Tender Bender posted:We were spoiled by Melee being basically a launch game and every Smash game will have that hanging over their heads for all time. That and the Wii showing off a Brawl trailer back in 2006. They also told consumers that Smash 4 was in development before the Wii U came out, though it wasn't officially announced until 2013. They at least told people that a Smash was on the way, though that doesn't seem to be the case now.

I never had a PS4 and I don't mess with Steam as much as I used to, so I have been happy with a few of the indie titles I had previously not played, like Isaac and Shovel Knight.

I'm playing through Bayonetta for the first time as it's the free game on Xbox Live this month. I normally detest these kind of games. Hell, even 15 minutes into the game I was like "what the gently caress is this pervy poo poo." Now that I'm two hours I find it loving hysterical. It's still weird pervy poo poo but it is so B-movie I love it.

This week's drop. Switch ACA NeoGeo Aero Fighters 2 | NA | PAL | $7.99 / £6.29 / €6.99 (eShop Only) Gunbarich | NA | PAL | $ ? / £5.99 / €6.99 (eShop Only) Puzzle Adventure Blockle | NA | PAL | $7.99 / £5.99 / €6.29 (eShop Only) Retro City Rampage DX | NA | PAL | $14.99 / £12.99 / €14.99 (eShop Only) Slime-san | NA | PAL | $ ? / £10.00 / €11.99 (eShop Only) Strikers 1945 | NA | PAL | $7.99 / £6.99 / €6.99 (eShop Only) Use Your Words | NA | PAL | $14.99 / £11.79 / €13.09 (eShop Only) Switch is getting some Shoot-em-ups this week with both ACA NeoGeo Aero Fighters 2 and Striker 1945. There's also Retro City Rampage DX, if you haven't played it yet (I think I got it for free on 3DS but still haven't played it). Slime-san is a retro-style twitch platfomer. Puzzle Adventure Blockle is a sort of rotating maze puzzle game, possibly with some RPG elements? I dunno. Gunbarich is another arcade game, similar to Breakout/Arkanoid, but with added Anime. Use Your Words is a party game, I think it's similar to stuff in Jackbox Party Pack, but probably not as good.

I should preface by saying I love my Switch despite the shortcomings it has. It's really awesome. Today, though, I realized that I'm essentially just re-playing games I already liked instead of getting entirely new experiences. The list of Switch games that have physical releases and are exclusive is short and inconsistent, with ARMS and Splatoon 2 being the only obvious standouts. So while I really like the thing, I essentially paid $300 to play two new games and a bunch of stuff I could have either had for the Wii U or Steam or something. Don't get me wrong, this didn't stop me from paying $30 for Cave Story+ again or choosing to play Zelda on the Switch, and ARMS and Splatoon 2 are really good, but if I didn't think the Switch would be so scarce during the holiday season I probably wouldn't have bought one yet at all. And that itself made me wonder about Nintendo's business practices in general. I could be way off base, here, so forgive me if it's ignorance, but it seems like they fuckin' love them some artificial scarcity - is there any reason why they didn't just make a bazillion Switches to meet the obvious demand? Is there a reason why some amiibos are like $150 on the secondary market? Why did they choose to release the Switch during one of the most clustered early-year release blocks in my memory?

https://twitter.com/RiMEGame/status/893130726891294721 RiME for the Switch finally has release dates. November 14th in the US and November 17th in the EU. As was mentioned some time ago, the digital version will be cheaper than the retail one, but the retail has a free code that gives you a free soundtrack off from Bandcamp. EDIT: Fixed twitter link. No. 1 Callie Fan fucked around with this message at 16:30 on Aug 3, 2017 |

I don't think anyone envisioned the year being as clustered as it is---stuff like Yakuza 0, Horizon, Nier, etc were games that might have flown under the rader or underperformed but everything for the first 3 months did really well. As for amiibos, well those are just pieces of poo poo designed to rob you

DLC Inc posted:they did not expect it to sell this much. they also did not expect it to have to fight with Apple over parts. I'd wager they expected the Switch to sell 'okay', and thought Breath of the Wild would do decent sales spread across two platforms for a few months until ARMS and Splatoon 2. Rather than everyone jumping a Switch for Breath of the Wild.

I don't think anybody expected this year to be as crazy as it was. Yakuza 0, Nier A, and Nioh were sleeper hits. HZD got massive marketing and is also a super good game. The Switch has had a neat exclusive pretty much every month since it's been out.

Considering the secondary market also just sells the chips programmed for you and any android phone can write the downloadable data for you anyway, I can't believe any adult has ever spent over $5 on one. I know some people are into figurine collecting - I suppose. I can see wanting a Guardian for your desk or whatever.

Honestly Mario Odyssey AND the Yoshi game look rad as hell. I'm super psyched. I've always had a soft spot for Kirby too, but I don't think it looks as exciting (hoping I am proved wrong).

I read some impressions of a late game area that game journalists got to play and the only thing that sounds worrying is that when the game starts to get complex and tactically interesting, it's already over. Hopefully there's an NG+ with revised encounters. Like the TL;DR of the impressions was "the early game was too simplistic but this new demo is pretty tactically interesting and Ubisoft says it's 3/4ths of the way through the game"

Oh that is disappointing. I'm not looking for "hit your dick with a hammer" difficulty but I'd prefer if the game forced me to think tactically and made me make tough decisions. But it is a Mario game so who knows.

Embarrassing gamer confession: I owned Bayonetta on PS3 and played for like half an hour. I have since seen the light of Platinum games and will buy the hell out of the switch release. MGR was so so good.
