Put the Samurai Shodown rpg on the Switch.

Fixed.

I would also buy Dishonored. I played maybe the first hour and lost interest a few years ago, but I'm willing to give it another, legally-purchased, shot.

the first hour is a bit slow, but there are some levels later on that really have a mood to them, and an odd mood too. it's a game that i felt nonchalant about at the start, had quite enjoyed when i finished it, remembered extremely fondly and then absolutely adored when i replayed it. it lingers

other switch wishlist games are Mount Your Friends, re-release of Vagrant Story or Chrono Trigger, literally any good four-player wrasslin' game

I would describe the combat as very slow and boring, yeah. I guess I should be changing Blades based on elemental weaknesses, but I can only have two Blades equipped at once. Does remembering the weaknesses of every monster and switching out Blades before battles really make that big of a difference?

You do elemental combos. It really gets going and easier to do once you have three blades.

Put that Lost Planet spinoff that never came out in America because it was set in a anime high school on the Switch and release it in America

It never came out in America because every bit of text in the game isn't actually text but a fully drawn, hard coded Japanese language image and they would have to completely localize and re-draw all of them.

My problem with Xenoblade's combat is that my party members don't like to continue driver combos and if I do it myself there are some blades/movesets where I literally can't, say, launch, switch blades, and smash, before the launch duration runs out.

There�s an accessory you can equip which shortens blade resets by a huge chunk. Can�t remember what it�s called, but you def can do them all before timers go out.

Yep. I forget the exact story, but IIRC Nintendo built assets for Yoshi but didn't have the time or resources to make him playable or rideable so they stuck him on the roof as a easter egg.

In other news, Kamiya posted a lengthy thing about hair witches on Twitter. Since it's not a proper "thread", here's the whole thing together:

Kamiya posted:

I've got something I want to tell you all. It's about Bayonetta 3. We are a developer that creates games by signing contracts with publishers and receiving funds from them in order to cover development costs. For Bayonetta 1, we signed a contract with Sega and received funds from them, then we proposed a design for the game and entered production. All of the rights belong to Sega. At the time, our company had only just been established, and we weren't properly equipped for multiplatform development, so after discussing with Sega, we decided to develop the game exclusively for Xbox 360. However, after that, one of Sega's trading partners ended up making a port for PS3, at Sega's behest. More recently, they also decided that a Steam version should be developed, which was released last year. Sega owns the rights to all of these versions.

When we started making Bayonetta 2, we initially received funds from Sega to develop the game for multiple platforms, but the project was halted due to circumstances at Sega. Nintendo then stepped in to continue funding the game, allowing us to finish it. As such, the rights belong to Sega and Nintendo. The rights owners decided the game should be made for Wii U. Nintendo was also kind enough to fund a port of Bayo 1 for Wii U, and they even allowed us to use the Japanese voice track we created for the Wii U version in the PC version of Bayo 1 as well. I am extremely thankful to Nintendo for funding the game, and to Sega for allowing them to use the Bayonetta IP.

As for Bayonetta 3, it was decided from the start that the game was going to be developed using Nintendo's funding. Without their help, we would not have been able to kick off this project. All of the rights still belong to Sega and Nintendo. The rights owners decided that the game should be made for Switch. Game development is a business. Each company has its own circumstances and strategies. Sometimes this means games get made, sometimes it means they get cancelled. But I believe that every single person involved is dedicated to delivering the best possible experience. I know that, to me at least, that's one of the biggest goals when I set to work. I cannot express how happy I am that we get to make Bayonetta 3, and we intend to do everything within our power to make it as good as it can be. That's all we can do, and we consider it our greatest mission. It took a while for production of Bayonetta 3 to be okayed, but now that it has kicked off, I hope it will turn into a wonderful encounter for all of you.

Basically, yeah. The demo ends at the first teleportal, which warps you somewhere else in that world. Build things, complete objectives, smash stuff up, fight a boss, then start from scratch in a new world with a new story.

According to this, Switch has some internal speed cap, and you won't see any benefit by going above UHS-1 speed.

Don't worry about the read/write speeds. Digital Foundry did a test loading Breath of the Wild from the game cartridge, from system storage, from an faster read/write SD card, and from a regular SD card and there was virtually no difference between the two SD cards.

Just buy it from a reputable retailer. If a deal sounds too good to be true, it's probably a fake SD card. The Samsung EVO Select 128GB is a pretty good deal and sometimes goes on sale even further.

This was back when SEGA was downsizing their console development segment. They focused on PC strategy/sim games and mobile games which worked out very well for them in the long run.

The original Bayonetta 2 they were developing might have been different than the one we actually got. At the time, SEGA was consulting design companies to make the sequel more of a mainstream action game.

The AI gives a high priority to driver combos. If they aren't finishing combos it's because their relevant blade is on cooldown or they need to do something more vital, like keep the party alive/revive someone.

Sounds like it's just whatever same division between them was in place while funding the WiiU version of Bayonetta 2.

Yeah, it seems like Sega owns the Bayonetta IP, and Bayonetta 1, and part of Bayonetta 2. Whereas Nintendo owns the Bayonetta 1 vocal track made specifically for the Wii U version, part of Bayonetta 2, and all of Bayonetta 3

SEGA owns the Bayonetta IP and Nintendo has the publishing rights/game code for Bayonetta 3.

Bayonetta 2's copyright was co-owned by Nintendo and SEGA so we should expect something similar for 3.

Just the results is all you have to look at for the Digital Foundry tests.

As you can see, the loading times for the faster SD card is actually a tick slower than the regular one.
