Theres a website someone probably has the link to with a bunch of games with co op but 90% of them are indie so you might not care.

Aonuma: Yes, we worked very closely with the 1 2 Switch team, and what we can say is: there is a lot of content in Breath of the Wild that will evoke feelings and memories of 1 2 Switch. For example, Link must milk goats for recipes, and when played with the Joy-Con, you will have to replicate the motions of actually milking a goat. Further, Link encounters a King Bokoblin and accepts a challenge to duel. In this section, you'll be using skills from Quick Draw to time your shot at the King. Basically, the heart of Breath of the Wild is Zelda, but the core is 1 2 Switch.

Serious question, how are you people carrying around these giant USB battery packs? Is this a normal thing people do now to power their phones? I'd never heard of them before this thread and it seems like it would be a lot easier to just carry the charger than haul a sack of batteries around.

I have a Nexus 5 that I refuse to replace and I'm too scared to change the battery so I keep a 11200mah matter around in the bag I bring to work. It doesn't take up that much space and it was $10 on amazon so it isn't that big of a deal.

I'll be looking forward to buying the Switch for couch multiplayer stuff used in a year or two, the PS4 has some fun games I like but couch multiplayer is fantastically dead
Couch multiplayer is mostly dead on consoles (well cept for Nintendo I guess) but it's incredibly alive and well on PC. Like, almost absurdly so. There are far too many decent to great couch games now on Steam.

Can Confirm.
I bought a Steam link and two controllers for less than $100 and it's boss. I have to use mine over wifi, though, so the more intense games get a bit choppy.

I figured as much since the same plate spinning mini game was in 1-2-Switch and BOTW.

If Konami really cared about Bomberman they would have had the devs use fox engine and called it Bowieman but instead we get this GARBAGE that requires 8 controllers for 8 players??????

If Konami really cared about Bomberman they would have given the team a bigger budget than a $500 gift code for the Unity asset store.

If Konami really cared about Bomberman, they'd make the anime girl version a Switch launch title.

On a more serious note, if Bomberman R's multiplayer is even half as good as Live's or Blast's multiplayer was, it will be my favorite game on the system until Mario Odyssey and Xenoblade pop up.

If Konami really cared about Bomberman, they'd make a VR game where I could be friends with Bomberman and we could hang out together and drink a few beers and blow up bricks randomly laid out in a grid until we get the greatest prize of all, love and/or the remote detonation powerup.

Fire emblem is bad and dumb and the math is bad and each new release has been progressively worse. Also haha those graphics are worse than bomberman R. Also haha lets incest bang our lolicon sister and get a baby in her haha
