AxeManiac posted:Hey, I maxed out the Dragon Quest Builders demo on the switch. If I buy the full game, do I keep my save? I'd totally not buy if it I can't do that cause I spent a stupid amount of time working on my starter base and I'll just keep playing the demo if that's the case. No, it doesn't transfer. There's also no real point because you wind up moving onto a new area anyway. If you do get the game, just do the bare minimum required for the demo area again and move on with the game. Shouldn't take more than 20 minutes.

Also I think theres more block types in the free mode. Fundamentally though, its the exact same game.

There you must fly through and destroy huge multi-screen enemy craft, whilst rescuing imprisoned kittens. Bayonetta - $29.99 / £24.99 / €29.99 (Feb 16) Digital - [NA] [EU] Bayonetta is a butt-kicking, havoc-wreaking witch, and she'll shoot, whip, slice, and burn angels as she uncovers the truth about her own past. Her weapons and moves are all stylishly over-the-top, but she can also dodge attacks to slow down time, and inflict Torture Attacks on her enemies. This is the prequel to the Bayonetta™ 2 game, and it's every bit as sassy, destructive, and epic as you'd expect. Bayonetta is the fashionable and foxy unholy offspring of an Umbra Witch and a Lumen Sage, and she's lost her memory after being asleep at the bottom of a lake for 500 years. Use Wicked Weaves to summon Infernal Demons, dodge enemies' dangerous attacks to slow down time, and punish angels with deadly devices.

Bayonetta is a butt-kicking, havoc-wreaking witch who wields sweet weapons like pistols, whips, hammers, flamethrowers, and poison bows. But it's not just about brawn—it's also about style. Bayonetta is deadly but sleek, with moves like Witch Time that slows down time itself, and the all-new Umbran Climax—a special magic attack that summons Infernal Demons to devastate enemies. The Bayonetta 2 game also features an online and local wireless 2-player cooperative mode where players bet halos on their performance and work together to amplify their sass, cause destruction, and score some riches.

Some Chambers have multiple goals, and depending on which goals you reach, the game diverges into seven different paths.

So if you buy 1 first, 2 will only cost $30, while if you buy 2 first, 1 will only cost $10. They did the same system with the Wii U version.

I ordered Bayonetta 2 off amazon and it came with a code for part one. The code was bad, so I hit up Nintendo support live chat and they got me fixed up in minutes with a working code. That was quicker than I expected and very cool of them. Nintendo is good. Also I never played Bayonetta before and holy cow, it's so stupidly fun and over the top and I'm dressed up like Princess Peach and it owns. The music is really fun too
