I own the XB1 port and while it's obviously made for M/KB (mouse control in some menus etc.) there's really not a problem with it.

That sucks and makes the coupon pretty worthless to me. Realistically the Switch is the only portable console I want to tote around and I really don't have a need to use my WiiU at all.

What the 3DS, Wii U and Switch digital manuals are all missing are flavor text that might clutter up a concise and straightforward manual, but without that stuff the manual feels just a slight bit lacking.

The Limited Edition of the eventual Donkey Kong Country Returns 3 that costs more than the standard edition will only have one difference in that it comes with a physical printed manual with Cranky Kong clowning on the game itself at least once on every page.

Wait, I just remembered, there's co-op right? Local?

Co-op will get patched in for the Seam version in early 2018 with other platforms to follow. There's an official announcement here.

quote:

Shortly after you begin the game, Robin will offer to build up to 3 cabins on your farm. Each cabin will house a farmhand, controlled by one of your friends.

Farmhands can do almost anything the main player can do. They can farm, mine, fight, fish, forage, marry NPCs and take part in festivals. Each player has their own inventory. When a farmhand is not connected, their inventory can be managed through a chest in their cabin.

Certain decisions can be made only by the main player: when to sleep, when to start and end festivals, and whether to side with Joja, for instance.

You won’t need to set up a server to run multiplayer. Friends can be invited onto the farm through Steam. The invite mechanism for non-Steam versions is TBD, but likely to be similar in most cases.
[...]
Local multiplayer, split-screen and PVP are not planned at this point.
[...]
We currently expect to be able to start a beta test at the end of the year for Steam users to help us test the game. Mod authors will be encouraged to update their mods during this beta period. Then, in early 2018 we will release it as the 1.3 patch on Windows, Mac and Linux.

Consoles will get the patch too, starting with Nintendo Switch. This will be a bigger patch than usual, so be aware that it will take a while to roll out to each platform.

I consider it a $15 investment to allow me to continue procrastinating my plan to buy a console just for Persona 5. Maybe by the time I'm done obsessively Star Dewing, Atlus will announce a PC version like they've kind of teased/avoided the question of at interviews.

It's more possible than ever because they got bought by Sega, dammit :argh:

That's still buying a console, friend. Anyway, I also want to play HZD, and potentially Monster Hunter World, depending on which platform most goons end up going with for that.

But the actual console seller for me is P5 :negative:

Anyway, Switch is about to keep my busy for like the rest of the foreseeable year, between Stardew, Mario Odyssey in like 3 weeks, and Xenoblade 2 in like December.

Generally both sites like it even if it's a product of a lovely Unity engine. 20 to 25 hours sounds good for a nice classic turnbased RPG. I think the Switch version comes out later this year due to loving Unity needing updates.

Oh. Dang. Didn't realize it was further off for Switch. Looks like a great portable game, but my impatience may get the best of me...

These days you can get a ps3 for less than P5 itself, but yeah I'd say the PS4 is a more than justifiable purchase at this point. There's also yakuza if you're into that.

those PS3 shoulder buttons are an atrocity compared to the PS4. It was disgusting playing PS3 games with the default controllers, which were so low quality. Actually I think the PS4 controller has been the first Sony controller I actually like.
