really want a pro controller but I already preordered the badass xenoblade one, and at 70 bucks idk if I'd buy another just to have it now

Why not get the Splatoon 2 version? :pseudo:

For what it's worth, the Pro Controller's very nice and quite comfortable if you have big hands.

It's more that it's gonna be Gamefreak's first HD game, and that takes a lot of effort and training to work on from the ground-up. Even if Nintendo steps in to do some of the heavy coding.

The 3d models they've been using since XY are actually pretty overbuilt, which is part of why the recent games have had framerate issues. I don't think the transition will be all that bad.

I still haven't picked a Switch up yet (soooon hopefully) but I had a question. Is that Switch warping thing still happening? I've seen a few pictures of the tablet warped slightly.


I've seen as many "warped switch" stories as I have "the switch blew out my SD card" stories, which is to say one. Try not to put it in your pocket and sit on it.

I like that everything about the Switch is immediately playable without having to bring a bunch of poo poo. You can bring a better cellphone stand or pro controllers to make it better, but it has its own screen, controllers and kickstand and it's so easy to crank out a 2p game whenever

Yeah it actually feels like a toy, and I say that as a very high compliment

In this era of sterile rectangle devices the switch really has a digital multiplayer toy vibe to it when taking it out in group settings, kinda like a board game does

In contrast, playing phone games just doesn't feel as good even if you don't account for inferior touch screen controls

but also I bought an ereader like a big dumb idiot so I'm extra cynical about useless 50 dollar accessories only usable in 2-3 titles that the gaming industry seems to love so much, and from what i recall that gba to gcn cable wasn't too expensive

Everybody's Golf is insanely good. So much customization, so many holes, all these VS challengers, the gear, the balls, and all the side-content like golf karts and fishing. Kinda wish Nintendo still gave a poo poo about Mario Golf so maybe Switch could have something like it.

Both. DQB2 was announced for both Switch and PS4, and then on the last Direct, Nintendo confirmed the original.

Man I hope the volume slider on DQB goes to zero this time. The lowest point on the slider was 1 on PS4 and the (third?) town's music broke me.

This caused me to check out the roster and now I'm sad. I thought that the main characters would be overrepresented but it's a bit much. I don't think we even get an axe user? I figured at least Hector was a shoe-in? And nobody from the Wii games?

It's also a travesty that Owain is in but as an NPC.

I'm kind of pissed off that Koei Tecmo brought back the idea of unique NPC officers for Warriors games, even if the intent is to use them later down the line as DLC. They haven't done that for years! Then again the Hyrule Warriors season passes showed them how much Nintendo fans are willing to pay for their favorites. I'm just glad that mentality hasn't come over to the actual Warriors games.
