It was made by techbros that cannot comprehend internet speeds below a Google campus.

It's going to be unusable for a lot of the country because our infrastructure is hot, stinky garbage.

Plus it hurts game preservation but that's a different story.

On a very cool note, I just showed my dad Turok on the Switch, it blew his mind. He used to play it on our PC like 20 years ago so seeing it on a handheld console really impressed him :unsmith:

So I ordered Dark Souls for Switch from Amazon and I got a European copy. All of the text on the back is in French and Spanish, and Google isn't helping me find out if this version has English. I don't want to open it and try it out in case I need to return it.

I know the Switch isn't region locked, but uh...I want to play this in English.

I have the digital version and I think it will just play in whatever language your switch is set to, with the following options:

So if I never played OG Turok how accessible is the remaster? I love N64 graphics I’m just wondering if there are quicksaves and stuff.

Blaster Master 0 2 sounds cool, should I play 0 first?

No quicksaves but the checkpoints are generous enough.
The game is centered around a hub where you go into levels to collects keys for other levels.

Lots of little hidden secrets and you can go back to an open level at any time if you think you missed something.

The enemies respawn and there is no actual point to killing them if you can run past. But you should kill them because it's fun.

I jumped on Chocbo's MD Everybuddy once it became clear that it was a HD remaster of FF Fables: Chocobo's Dungeon.

Easily one of the wii's best hidden gems with a soundtrack that is to die for (and certainly was in the wallet department IIRC)

So its worth the $40? I know one person said they weren’t incredibly happy with it.

It’s pretty generous. I think you’ll enjoy it.

0 is great so yeah, play it first.

They still show up on your main street every now and then to go shopping/clubbing. And if they stop showing up there, then they're at the point you can get them to move in again, wowser bowser

So apparently Nintendo released a current list of the top 10 indie games on Switch at GDC today.

What's interesting about that is that Shovel Knight Treasure Trove has fallen off it, but on the list at this point last year it had sold over 370,000 copies.

Surely it's sold more in the year since then. So the point being, selling ~400,000 copies of an indie game is no longer enough to even get you in the top 10 anymore. Holy poo poo! No wonder everybody who can slap together a copy of Unity is trying to get their games on this thing. The original Shovel Knight was made for ~$300,000 by a team of 7 people.

If you've played mystery dungeon games before you'll probably be fine. I remember playing that game on normal and not finding it particularly difficult.

edit: This is a remake/remaster right? If it's a new game entirely then ignore my answer.
