Seems like that January Direct might be coming sooner rather than later, fits with my theory that they want to show people who just got a Switch a bunch of stuff coming out as soon as possible.

Starting the New Year off right would be a smart move.

Especially in this, the Year of Waluigi.

If Rayman Legends is really that good maybe I’ll get it. I loved the original Rayman for DOS back in the ‘90s but it was insanely hard, especially for a kid who wasn’t that good at video games.

Legends is nowhere near as hard as the original Rayman game. None of the Rayman games are.

I’m interested in Payday 2 but I remember people complaining about poor support for their past console versions. Did they ever get their act together, i.e. give any indication that the Switch version will be handled better?

It really does. I enjoyed it on the PS4 but put it down after a while. It’s the perfect game for bite size gaming on the switch and it has recaptured my interest.

Also I can’t not make cute little RC cars so the customization grind has me hooked.

There have been some games published by Microsoft and released on Switch: Sina Mora EX, Max: Curse of the Brotherhood, and most notably, Minecraft. I still think it's highly unlikely though.

Sine Mora EX is THQ Nordic, I think Microsoft only published the original XBLA version.

I've actually been playing a lot of Smash WiiU recently since when it was released I was burned out playing Smash 3DS and couldn't be arsed to play it all again. Still think it's bull all the trophies/items you collected on 3DS didn't transfer over, just your Mii characters.

But yeah game is still loving fun and has a ton of characters. Even if they just ported Smash 4 will all the DLC, and maybe replaced Smash Tour with something more engaging like Smash Run, I would buy it again.
