As long as 8bitdo controllers can't power on the system I probably am not going to buy anymore. Bad for PC cause the button layout, annoying to sync to the switch every time

I love the wireless hori pro controllers. They can turn on the console and are actually cheaper than the 8bitdo controllers. The d pads aren't as good but doesn't matter for most games.

Heavy Sigh posted:

I call it barely functional because the combat system is stupidly unbalanced, and it gets worse the second you get the ability to delay turns. Every single enemy in the game gets completely shut down after that point, and rather than fix it in any way the game just throws more ways to do it at you. I've quite literally stunlocked most bosses from zero to death because of how poorly thought out the combat system is.

You don't have to stunlock the bosses in the same way that you don't have to use any of the relics.

Puns are fine, but the puns they use are lame.

"Bewarewolf"?

"Ratscal"?

"Batatouille"?

I have Kart and dislike Zelda. Played the Pikmin 4 demo and it's not for me - I don't like dealing with the timer element of it. ("daytime") Not in a rush to spend it, but excited to have it. Last years game was a total bust, turns out I misunderstood what Luigi's Mansion is and it's awful. Kirby return to dreamland and yoshi's crafted world are the most recent hits.

Well what do you like?

I like Mario kart, super mario u, smm2, yoshi's crafted world, kirby return to dreamland, untitled goose game. I might like pikmin if I have it more of a chance. I'll give it another try on the demo.

I dislike Zelda (just never could get into it) and anything "turn based". I like easy low stakes games that let you just keep going along without a bunch of cut scenes and such.

I simply don't have a lot of games either. I dislike not having playable demos of basically every major title. (anything at the $60 price point should have a basic demo in my opinion, Nintendo can afford to, and obviously afford not to.)

As for luigis mansion I didn't really look at it all before impulse asking for it for Christmas last year.

maybe try some farm sim games like Stardew Valley, or the old Harvest Moon games on the old virtual consoles

I think all games should have the joycon iconography of clearly denoting the position of the intended button on a small icon.

In other words, showing the player they need to press the bottom button for <this>, and then the right-side button for <that>.

Nintendo can eat a fat dick with their Switch controller button remapping feature. It's bad enough that the system nags you every time you turn on the system asking if you want to switch back to the defaults, but I just discovered today that they intentionally crippled the feature in that it doesn't support 3rd party controllers.

I'm glad they brought the feature to the system at all because I need B and A swapped to be able to play pretty much any game, but they added such unnecessary hostility.

Why do you need B and A swapped to be able to play pretty much any game? Can't you just get used to them being different and achieve motion fluency through patience and time, or are you too obstinate to adapt?

I learned to play inverted because of plane games on the n64, but I'm not a stubborn old engineer and can adapt and learn regular controls. Also some older jrpgs had the x axis inverted and while annoying, it was doable after learning and adapting. It really does sound like a skill issue.

so with all of these switch 2 leaks, it sure seems like something’s coming soon. but i have no idea what its launch titles could be.

we just got a new mario, a new zelda, and, i think, a new pokémon. i don’t feel like metroid is popular enough to carry the launch.

is it just going to be mario kart 9 and some random other stuff? metroid prime 4 and the other mp remastered? not really sure what nintendo can do here.

It's going to be remappable controls
