Steam games are cheap as poo poo. On Switch, not so much.

Kawabata posted:I wonder how streamlined XC2 is and whether Monolith has learned from their past mistakes or not. I'm currently playing XCX and while it's an amazing game it does its best to annoy the gently caress out of you every step of the way, much like most Monolith releases including XC1. This thing you bring up is specifically something that was bugging the crap out of me in parts of FF XV when looking for hunts and such, and part of why I enjoyed Breath of the Wild so much, because you can climb and therefore you can just make your own path.

empathe posted:I feel like I'm missing something with Xenoblade. I tried the last 3DS one and I just couldn't get into it. The battle system seemed to suffer by being real-time / MMO style. I agree, I didn't get very far in the 3DS game due to the battle system/controls. I really want to check out 2 when it comes out, but I'm worried I'll run into the same snag.

God dammit. Playing Skyrim, somehow I ended up with a 1000 gold bounty in Riften. I go to jail, look for the secret switch to open the back panel, and it turns out it's bugged. Like, in all versions of the game. And the Switch version obviously can't get the unofficial patch that fixes it. How has Bethesda not addressed this in six years?

Nine Parchments demo was fun, I want it. Closest thing to a Diablo game I've seen on Switch so far.

Is Super Bomberman R worth getting with the new update and $10 price drop? How’s the online multiplayer?

The port of Stick it to the Man is supposedly good acording to some guy at Destructoid who seems to really love it. So do I so it's currently downloading despite me telling myself I was done buying games for the month. It's pretty much a point and click platformer with Psychonauts visuals and humour. https://www.destructoid.com/stick-it-to-the-man-on-switch-still-makes-me-giggle-474173.phtml https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gu0dUMYyJdQ

I got ordered it myself after hearing over the year that the game has been patched up and things work fine now though the way they did that was lowering the resolution, but the input lag is supposed to be fixed.

empathe posted:Anyone grab Worms WMD yet? How's the port? Solid. Framerate is great, the network code is kind of wobbly but functional like it apparently is in the PC version and it scales graphically pretty well either on your TV or out of it. From the couple of hours I've been playing, I can't say anything that really bums me about it. A few nibbles here and there, but overall it works and plays like a game of Worms.

Does any USB charging cable work for the Pro controller? The one it comes with is too long, I'd prefer to use a shorter one. EDIT: Looks like it uses a unique plug. Fantastic. RatHat fucked around with this message at 22:56 on Nov 23, 2017 |

It's a USB-C port, which is a relatively new standard, but not proprietary.

For any Aus folks, JB has the Switch for $399 for Friday (24/11) only. Finally picked one up for myself as that's the cheapest I've seen it here

strange feelings re Daisy posted:Nine Parchments demo was fun, I want it. Closest thing to a Diablo game I've seen on Switch so far. This is fantastic to hear, and I'm looking forward to reading a review of the full game. If it's got the mindless replayability and loot system of D3, then

The success of Bomberman is what has spurred Konami to have talks about Castlevania games returning to a Nintendo exclusive according to rumors. Remember classic Castlevania games were exclusive to the Nintendo handhelds before they were outsourced to western devs

I had a 4 person Friendsgiving party yesterday, so on the way over I grabbed a Nintendo point card from 7/11 and downloaded Overcooked. After cooking and feasting I set up the dock, passed out the joycons and we went on a cooking journey through time. No performance issues, lots of yelling and laughing; 10/10 Switch and Overcooked are perfect for Thanksgiving.

I know Xenoverse 2 had already exceeded expectations with their like ~400k in the first monthish, I wonder what their sales total will look like after these crazy deep sales. Hopefully Black Friday numbers convince even more third party devs to port everything ever to the Switch.
