What are the must haves? Octopath traveler? Any good games for someone new to games completely for multiplayer?

There are tons of great games and a lot of indie surprise gems, but Mario odyssey and breath of the wild are the two big system sellers. Mario kart has steering assist for people just starting out with action games, kirby star allies is also a good pick because the second player is always able to do something but can't bring the first player down. The Jackbox games are the perfect party games, especially for people who don't play video games

Almost all of my games are rogue-likes, Steam ports, or both. Everyone should play Zelda though.

Gonna trade in arms (it was a nice idea) and hyrule warriors (not for me) and get D3. I played it like a month after it came out so I imagine it's an whole different animal now.

ExcessBLarg! posted:Another way to look at the situation is that the Switch has significant appeal among gamers that weren't around in the 80s and haven't previously owned a Nintendo system. That's a great thing for Nintendo. I'm 30 and among many of my friends Ocarina was the first and last Zelda most of them played - Some of them moved on to Windwaker but the Gamecube wasn't very popular. The person I know who sunk the most time into BOTW never owned a Nintendo console or handheld before the switch. He bought it specifically because he liked what he saw of BOTW and liked that it was a nice, hefty portable that didn't feel cheap like a DS. Some of the guys that did follow the series from Ocarina all the way up to the Wii didn't like BOTW at all (I've noticed this online too to be honest)

Diablo 3 is the sort of game my wife and I will excitedly binge on for like two weeks, then completely lose interest, then 4-5 months later one of us will say "hey, we haven't played Diablo in a while!" and binge for another two weeks. Having a couch co-op version sounds really nice, so we'll probably get it on Switch when the cycle repeats itself.

I've had people say that too, that BotW isn't a "real" Zelda. But the thing is that as someone who played the original as a kid, it feels the most similar to that in my mind, just running around trying poo poo out til you make progress.

Having a couch co-op version sounds really nice, so we'll probably get it on Switch when the cycle repeats itself. This is exactly what I do. Usually roll a new guy at the start of every two or three seasons. I just picked up the switch version because I was getting the itch and hadn't bought the necromancer pack yet, so I'm trying them out. There's a few small changes and the UI is way different but it's Diablo 3 alright. The switch sleep mode is such a great addition though, and makes the daily quests that much more bite sized.

THE AWESOME GHOST posted:Some of the guys that did follow the series from Ocarina all the way up to the Wii didn't like BOTW at all (I've noticed this online too to be honest) Other than LTTP, Zelda games don't tend to do a ton for me. As with Twilight Princess, I pretty much checked out halfway through BOTW. I'd only done two of the beasts, and when I got to the third, I realized I was just slogging through to get to the end. So I made some ridiculous +health food and just stormed Hyrule Castle and beat the game. I sincerely appreciate BOTW being designed such that you can say "gently caress it" and go cheese the final boss as soon as you get bored.

Quick question, when the Switch I ordered finally shows up in the mail, can I just go ahead and put in the larger memory card I got for it, or will I need to set everything up and then copy the card contents to the new one? Also what should I check out aside from Diablo and BotW and the other big-name titles (eg, Mario, Bayonetta, Xenoblade, Octopath)?

Mario x Rabbids is the one you didn't list that I think a lot of people would point you towards -- also a little divisive (some people didn't like its more there's-a-specific-right-answer puzzly take on XCOM) but probably more consensus liked than anything you mentioned other than Odyssey.

I've warmed up to controlling Dark Souls portable and this is definitely a thing I never knew I needed in my life but drat, portable Dark Souls. And it runs better than the PS3 XBox versions. We are living in the future. Drains my Switch battery like a MF though.

i kinda think a lot of people could make a smash game, wheras there are probably a lot of crazy original new things that only sakurai could do. like, this is the guy who made kirby. that kind of talent is rare. it's a waste, to me, but oh well

Finally got a Switch so I can get my Diablo dopamine drip feed and I am really enjoying it! One question: any specific suggestions for grip cases for the joy cons to make them more comfortable to hold? They're a little small.

If you bought a bundle with a digital game and there's no code on a card/flyer in the box, it may be installed to the SD card. Really no clue; Nintendo has been pretty bad about this in the past. If it's just a Switch with no digital game, you can just swap the cards before turning it on for the first time.

Octopath traveler? Any good games for someone new to games completely for multiplayer? Towerfall is a recent Switch version release, has the DLC of the other versions and added a 6 player mode. Simple kill each other game. I think it has a campaign mode but haven’t played much (don’t have myself yet). Super Mario Party is solid. Jackbox games as mentioned are generally solid for non gamers, although the particular games tend to depend on your crowd. Taiko just came out and vaguely recall it had 4p multiplayer (rhythm?) games but no clue how those turned out. Anyone know if the standard mode has 4p too?

And screw it, separate post, my favorite Sakurai story, with a side note from Kamiya: https://www.sourcegaming.info/2018/02/08/new-years-discussion-with-sakurai-ueda-and-kamiya/ (A bunch more there and links to more interviews within) quote:—What was the first game you ever played?
