I don't think I'm ever going to find a Switch. The day after I left Dallas Amazon Instant had it up for 3 minutes. All the in stock websites seem to be wrong when they list it as being in stock.

You could have one for 500 dollars on ebay.

The hype for the Switch and the hype for the Wii U seem to be in polar opposites.

This is heavily reminding me of the Wii, whereas the Wii U was the wettest of farts.

I mean, you could always try again later, because I'm genuinely not feeling your complaints. It seems to boil down to "I was not able to win immediately, and I am not willing to put forth the effort necessary to reach that point." Oh well.

I actually got kind of good towards the end of my hour. I was getting pretty good with the dual blasters, learning to dodge and what not.

I also knew going in that gyro was the way to go and made myself play with gyro aiming. I was horrible the first 30 minutes and it was like a lightbulb went off in my head and I got significantly better.

You've got to put the time in, goons.

I figured out my magic settings: pro controller, -2 sensitivity tilt, -1 sensitivity stick.

I dropped my sensitivity on tilt to -1 and did SIGNIFICANTLY better. This was the hour where it finally clicked for me.

I was also becoming really mobile w/ dualies, learning to stick back and stealth strike people. Combined with the hockey puck bomb that glides in a line, it was loving great. Want more of that!

Oh, that's good stuff. Splatoon is the only shooter where I ever get over 1 k/d.

That hour, I had some of my best ever matches in a shooter, and I'm usually pretty mediocre at them. This is the first time where I'm somewhat bummed to go back to Zelda (that'll pass in like 3 minutes, tops). Splatoon 2 is a tremendously fun game.

*sigh * Well that's the problem, I probably would too. I've bought all four of the Mario & Luigi/Paper Mario games that came out last gen and was dissapointed in all of them.

BUT I KEPT BUYING THEM AS THEY RELEASED ANYWAY. "This time it'll be different! Look, they put Paper Mario in with Mario & Luigi! Certainly that will fix the issues I have with both series instead of having the issues from both!" :v:

It's me and people like me. We're the problem.


I liked Super Paper Mario, but wow, both series took a nosedive after that game.

Color Splash was pretty good and even better than Super imo.

That game did not review well at all. You may be in the minority on this one.

Kirios

Color Splash may be an OK or even good game, but it came out way too late in the Wii U's cycle and has middling reviews. It's hard for me to really care about it at all.

Not to mention Sticker Star burned me hard. I despised that game, and nothing Color Splash's previews + review cycle did inspired me to give it a honest shot.

Maybe if they brought it over to Switch I'd give it a honest shot, since there's at least a couple of goons willing to defend it.

I didn't hate sticker star, I found it intensely boring though, which I feel is a far greater sin

That's the reason I despised it. I felt like I wasted my time and my life playing it.

I remember there being a Wario game on Gamecube that was kind of good? They should port that to Switch.

I wasn't sold on the Switch coming out, but seeing how BotW is apparently amazing, I guess I need one now. Though I'll wait until my birthday in July to pick it up. Supply issues should be over by then

BotW is personally my favorite game ever and is easily worth the cost of a Switch.

The Switch is still an excellent piece of hardware though.

The case that comes with the Special Edition is fantastic. I 100% recommend it.

Here is the agreed upon and decided go to list of not Zelda recommendations. Please etch this into stones (and the first post) goons:

* Shovel Knight Treasure Trove
* Blastermaster Zero
* Snipperclips
* Neo Turf Masters
* Fast Racing RMX
* Human Resource Machine
* Snake Pass

My list is 100% up to date and accurate.

Lets be real people.

If you haven't played Shovel Knight, the #1 answer is 100% Shovel Knight. Otherwise, it's Blaster Master.
