MY DOODOO IS SPRAYING OUT

Takoluka posted:

What in the world are people expecting from a Splatoon sequel that would be so fundamentally different from the original? Like, when Doom 2 came out, did everyone complain that it should have just been a $5 WAD file?

sequels are ports now. there hasn't been a new game in decades. also games on pc and console are console exclusive

They sent me a brand new Switch cause they couldn't fix the issue with the wifi and now I have much better wifi signal reception. Super fast turn around too

What was wrong with your wifi? The short leash on the wifi receptor in my Switch annoys me almost every day.

I can't wait for Stardew, a game I've been wanting for a long time and will probably play for 12 hours over one weekend and then never touch again.
Actually you'll play it for 400 hours over the course of 2 weeks and then randomly stop playing it and never play it ever again.

Yooka Laylee good or bad? I liked Banjo Kazooie (20?) years ago, but I'm not sure I'd like it now...I feel like I may have grown out of the genre. I am excited about the new mario, but that's because it looks insanely awesome.

It's not good as Banjo 1 but it's pretty equal to the rest of Rare's 3D platformers for better and for worse. Mario will definitely be leagues better.

Without a doubt, but luckily it's not an either-or (plus I backed Y-L like 100 years ago so I don't have to buy that again)

Has there been any indication of a Hollow Knight release date? The game looks cool and I've resisted steam sales for it because I'd like it on Switch but it still seems nebulous from what I can find.

Flip Wars' characters make me think that the game was originally going to be another Metroid spinoff like Federation Force. Looks like it could scratch the same itch as Bomberman.

Moonlighter posted on their Kickstarter again talking about console releases and I asked them if they were thinking about Switch and they said "It is not announced officially but we are seriously considering it :)"

So if that looks like something you'd be interested in, semi-good news for the indefinite future!

e: yeah I should probably like link to a trailer:

basically every digital indie release date for Switch is a giant glowing question mark. Stardew when, Hollow Knight when, Wargroove/Golf Story/Mother 3 when.

In fairness, we do know Stardew is at least running on Switch from those tweets posted a page or two back. So soonish. Ish. Maybe.

It might be me. I will have the purest opinion of all, because I'd never heard of this game before today and it looks kinda rad. I think I might buy it.

From a friend who loved N64 rare games, it seems like it's a old Rare game with all the good and bad it entails. Fun writing, good music, some clever gameplay ideas, bad boss battles, levels can end up feeling like a chore. As long as you don't over-idolize the genre it'll probably end up being okay.

Only a couple fringe reviews, but I think I'm backing away from my intent to buy Phantom Trigger. Sounds mediocre at best.
