I admire your moxy in trying to convert the guy but I think after the revelation he's been playing mario kart with all the autocontrols turned on and that his idea of a good game is 'story driven single player with pretty visuals and absolutely no open world/rpg' you're definitely preaching to the wrong crowd

Like the whole spirit and joy of BotW is the antithesis of that kind of game

I sold MGS4 and bought FFXIII with the money in the worst trade deal in history

I traded them back after a few days, more than willing to take the hit because FFXIII was probably the worst game I'd ever played

Back when the Wii U was fresh I traded in Pikmin 3 for Splinter Cell: Blacklist :doh:. It shot up in price after that, so I didn't get another copy until a year ago...

Isn't Warriors Multiplayer? That poo poo's pretty mindless and fun and pretty and done bit by bit. Could be something for Melon Cat to look into, and not being Nintendo it can get cheap. Still they should just BotW, I, and I'm sure many others, would all love to be able to play that game again for a first time.
Nah, Warriors is single-player. I got it because one of the people I follow on Twitch loves it and says it's one of the best Warriors games of any series. It's fun as hell but I can only play it for one or two missions at a time, because so much goes on at once.

It's not bad. Extremely out of touch for what a Metroid Prime fan would want, but for the two or three weeks you could actually organize a mission with randos, it was quite sophisticated for the 3DS. It's hypothetically a good co-op game

Anyone can recommend some good local co-op games? I'm in a weird place emotionally and want to play games with friends but can't handle competetive stuff as I uh, get really mad (just got off SSRI's and my brain juices are hosed up)
I already have snipperclips, kirby, neurovoider and overcooked, but if there's something cheap and good I'm missing let me know.

Lovers in a dangerous space time. Seriously, just get it, it's the evolution of affordable space adventures with a ton of depth, difficulty and replay value. It's even fun in single player.

Glad to hear you did lots of research on he switch before buying one, which led you to realize it would have lots of Nintendo games, which you would enjoy.

This weekend, I finally found some time to play stuff I picked up during some sales over the last few months.
Conclusion:

The Iconoclasts soundtrack still is one of the best soundtracks ever, and I enjoy playing the game for the third time (it's cool, and good, has cool visuals, great music and I don't care if people say it's not a proper "Metroidvania"....game is good)

Into the Breach. It's....sorry, I have to play another round, it's so....sorry, must play more....

Most likely. Didn't Wolfenstein come out on the Switch? Maybe then can get that.

On the plus side I've convinced myself to double-dip on Stardew Valley. If I've got nothing going on this summer, it's what I'll be playing.

Yeah, one of the best things about the Switch is that games that would otherwise be relegated to the handheld line should (hopefully will) be developed on a decent console instead.

Nintendo hasn't done nearly enough of this yet but Pokémon is a good start. I'd love to see a 2D Zelda and Metroid at some point.

I bought the special Samus edition New 3DS when it was released and I've hardly played it. I think it got more use as a Wario Land 2/3 machine than as a device that plays 3DS games.

I figure another 2D Zelda is inevitable. Link Between Worlds was really good and sold well as far as I know.

A Zelda 1 remake/sequel seems like a good choice. I'd love to explore a remade Zelda 1 overworld.

I love the hardiness of my 3DS. I have the Majora's Mask Special Edition and it's great for travel. I still don't trust taking out my Switch so the 3DS is perfect. Plus, the game's are cheap and I get to play some great platformers on it like all the OG DKC. Before it closes shop I'm going to stock up on the Virtual Console offerings there alongside some games I never got like Wooly World, Cpt Toad, and Epic Yarn, alongside the Metroid and Zelda games.
