At this point one system or another should just say screw it and port over someone porn games, give the ao tag a reason to exist

Either platform holders or stores refuse to carry AO games, so it's effectively a ban on console.

Friend got caught with a DS in high school midmatch during Mario Kart with me. When the teacher opened the DS to find out what the gently caress she'd confiscated, I was able to square off with her in-game (by repeatedly smacking her with shells and driving up in front of her with my real name)

I never got caught for this

This reminds me of when I graduated high school. We had three days of graduation practice that were technically after classes had concluded but were mandatory to attend if you wanted to walk in the ceremony. So my friend and I just played Mario Kart on our DSes the whole time. We were 13th and 15th in a class of 450 so they were long, boring days of just sitting there. Even though we were in the front row (and I was dead center) and not trying to hide it at all we never got caught. He also introduced me to WarioWare. Those were good times!

In study hall me and some buddies would play 4-player Advance Wars by passing around a GBA. The only rule was no talking so we didn't have to hide it, it ruled.

Bayonetta 2 at least will never be on a non-Nintendo console since they funded it. It's a shame, but at least the game actually exists.

No joke, Monster Hunter Stories is a really cute and fun game!

I just wish we could also get XX. From what I understand, there's not much chance of World getting to the Switch. I hear the PS4 can only barely run it as it is.

All the more reason to localize XX, I say! I mean the Switch is region free and there is a menu translation patch, but I want my puns, drat it!

I wanted XX last year, but at this point I'd rather have an actual HD game with a lot of the QOL improvements they showed on World. It's ok if they have to do segmented areas but the Switch should at least be able to run something substantially better than an upressed 3ds game.

Considering the success xenoblade and bayonetta are having being exclusively funded by nintendo, I bet several years later they will just be considered a nintendo brand, like pokemon or kirby.

Monolith helped with development on Zelda BOTW. They are 1st party.

On a side-note, Pokemon is its own thing. Nintendo has to constantly ask permission to get their games and IP.

Eh, Nintendo owns a 3rd of Pokemon Inc. Game Freak and Creatures own the other 2/3rds. They just have to agree on new stuff to be made.

Nintendo does outright own the IP though, or at the very least all the Trademarks are all owned by Nintendo.

Bandai Namco's Katsuhiro Harada (TEKKEN) tried to get support online to show the company that a Xenosaga HD Remaster trilogy might be viable, but only got 10,000 signatures (with far fewer unique users) and posted a long thing about how the feedback wasn't good and gave up that avenue.

Sounds like 3 will be the same. Bayonetta is basically a Nintendo character now and that owns.

Well, I'm going to get World anyway when it comes out for PC. Mostly I want XX because it greatly improved and expanded the Prowler mode, and I am one of those weird people who mains the cat. World, as of yet, doesn't have Prowler mode, so give me that XX, please.

drat that was hard. I beat chapter 2 in celeste earlier and found the b side, and I jumped straight in. I finally got the collectible at the end, and all it took me was 336 deaths.

Probably a good dozen of those are trying to adjust the timing, since I thought the bird's advice was just a joke

If the other thing is in the b side, I was too busy dying to notice it this time around

I'm no authority, but I wouldn't rule it out. FIFA showed up along with NBA 2k18 last year. I don't know how well they sold though.


In more games lineup news, it looks like Playism is going to begin publishing games on Switch.
https://twitter.com/playismEN/status/959268797860294661
Confirmed games so far:
-Kero Blaster
-TorqueL
-Croixleur Sigma

TorqueL is coming out first and will release on February 15.
