Anyone know anything about the Atelier series? There's a new one coming out that looks cute.
You're probably best off asking in the RPG thread since that seems like where most of the discussion on the series is. JP release is end of September (with NA a month later), so there will probably be plenty of impressions after it launches there.

There's a bunch of footage of the Switch version here anyway: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VjKKS7mYEs
Looks pretty solid other than slightly lower resolution and some frame drops.

Probably also of note in contrast to what CYBEReris mentioned is that the combat in this one is on a real time ATB system, Semi-Auto Battler + manually use skills kind of thing.

Anti-aliasing is when you smooth out an image so details smaller than a single pixel don't stand out and look jagged or weird. It's good.

New indie for Honor just dropped exclusively for switch. Steam later in the year. Demo available now

If you're into control options like gyro, your gonna love this game, it's got gyro camera and apparently gyro weapon movement like skyward sword going by the settings. Kind of overwhelmed, wish my joycons were here to properly test this. Also the demo can play with purchased copies.

It's decent for an indie launch, easy to join a debate and the spectator mode ain't bad either.

I see Crystal Crisis is on sale too, which is a Nicalis knock-off of Puzzle Fighter that looks waaaaaaaay better than the official sequel that was released on mobile (:negative:) a year or so ago.

Really looks like my cup of tea, has anybody played it?

Crystal Crisis broke my heart. The core game is really good - just a solid Puzzle Fighter clone that plays great. The problem is that the load times are unbearable - sometimes longer than the actual matches. I've loaded it up maybe twice total because the loads are just that bad to sit through.

anti aliasing is bad because it tries to hide the beautiful sharp pixels

this is why the original DS was the best console, you could see each and every pixel clear as day

Ohhh snap. I finally got to play it last night at a local fighting game meetup and loved it, but was bummed that it wasn't on PC. This is the next best thing, although I need to find a 360 to Switch converter for my stick.

Legit hyped for Aladdin (assuming it's the SNES version), it was one of my favorite platformers back in the day. Lion King and its loving monkey puzzle bullshit can go gently caress itself tho.

Not sure it qualifies as a remake. Or even a remaster for that matter. Enhanced port?

Either way I'm in. Those were my first PC games that weren't rendered with ASCII.

The live-action remakes are trash and completely lost sight of what made the originals good in the first place.

The trailer showed 3 versions for each game, so it looks like it'll be the SNES, Mega Drive and Game Boy versions of each.

Oh poo poo can we start an argument about which version of Aladdin was better? Please? I'm feeling super nostalgic

I'll start: The Genesis version had way better gameplay and that's what matters

The trailer did not show the SNES (best) version, it showed the gameboy version twice.

Unlike the Lion King where it clearly showed the SNES, Genesis, and gameboy versions.

There was even one time where they let a young girl channel the ghost of my old boss (who was also the girl's older sister) to give testimony!

Was it related to a skin problem? Was it a whole Rash Of Man testimonial? Rash Or Man, Rashoman....is this thing on?

I never thought either version of the Lion King and Aladdin platformers were that good compared to the best platformers of the time but it’s cool to see them being rereleased.
