Tender Bender posted:I was concerned about the lack of replayability but to be honest I finish few enough games as it is that replayability is basically a vestigial concern nowadays. Yeah this is also why I don't care about collecting like I used to. I never really go back to anything anymore and frankly there's so much coming out that I would like to keep up with but just can't. On that note, I decided to fully wrap up persona 5 before I sell my PS4 and get a switch, I don't need to spend money on more games until I clear out a little more backlog! I'll def be gunning to get one before Mario hits though as I can't imagine that will do any favors to the whole not in stock situation.

How weird there's a ton of second hand switches on eBay selling for imo very reasonable prices, implying that the demand has stabilized (as well as a truckload of new ones selling for at most $50 over msrp lol) yet every store in a 40 mile radius around me in austin is sold out "lowly times these are"

hmm so the pooch arrangement for the joycons isn't bad, but I'm gonna want a pro controller aren't I? also the portable to console gimmick is way loving cooler in person than I ever imagined, I mostly wanted it for portable but this is pretty fuckin' neat too

i myself am picking up Zelda this weekend, pretty god damned hyped as well as one "smaller" title to fill out my Starter Pack of Botw, Mario Kart, and downloadable game thinking of going with mighty gunvolt burst or shovel knight, though I already played SK in other platforms and it is notably pricier than MG

Fun Times! posted:I don't think the Switch's battery life will do well with Netflix. Am I wrong? Itll be passable like another poster mentioned. Just as important is the fact that you can use it docked and toss random tv whenever without having to switch device or input on the TV, move to another room etc Always a solid option to have when you have company over or whatever

wow so i bought this to be my vita 2.0 but i find myself playing zelda docked it's such a gorgeous game despite not having the best textures or highest resolution and I would rather eat it up on my big rear end screen vs tiny handheld mode actually handheld mode is awesome too, but docked is glorious especially when roaming arond in a new area this game is literally about climbing poo poo in the wilderness and referencing a map, god drat nintendo you shook up the formula in the best possible way

plus it sets the precedent for more apps there's something elegant about the super minimalist UI sure but it feels weird given that predecessing portables were more versatile as the mini computers that they are

That's a complete non issue for anyone posting on video game forums more than likely Rabbids looks cool but Mario Kart is chock full of content and a gold standard Nintendo title I got Zelda plus Mario Kart as my inagural titles and it's such a fantastic package, I'm curious about rabbids and will eventually play it because it looks great but I doubt it comes close to these new nintendo classics

Nephzinho posted:If you have people to play locally with, Kart is a game that will never get old. It is a game that makes the portability worth it alone and tempts me constantly to get a second dock. Hell yeah, that plus the switch being bundled with two "controllers" made Mario kart a no brainier for me Also why I chose digital for MK. I might sell Zelda once I get my fill but sheeeit I'm gonna have MK perma installed on my switch forever and ever because multiplayer and online Where's smash Bros dx??

Yeah I didn't wanna be mean but it really sounds like a personal problem. It's not really a tall order for any half coordinated human over the age of 8, let alone someone who has played these games for over 100 hours as we ARE talking about a Nintendo car game here...

hmm phsyical BoI used isnt a bad idea but also I feel like it's the type of game I should always have installed that makes the price tag a bit less daunting also i know its prob years away but I can't wait for SMT on Switch, currently playing SMTIVA and it is good i'm loving the emphasis on specialized monsters rather than jack of all trades cuz yeah first game i always had everyone fully loaded

The Kins posted:The game engine Nuclear Throne uses (Game Maker Studio) does not currently have a Switch exporter, and it was the first game where Vlambeer did all the ports themselves instead of paying someone to completely rebuild the game in another engine. uuuugh that loving sucks, i love me some nuclear throne also, from soft needs to get on a Dark Souls I and II pack or release or something I wonder if it could handle DS3? Lowering specs on that still leaves an impressive looking game so maybe

It would probably be slightly less aggravating if you could rearrange icons The 3ds could do this since launch what's up with the lack of basic fundamental and super easy to integrate features? Not a big deal but I'd love to tuck my lamer looking games into a folder when using the switch socially etc

Just saying, the dude elaborated on specifics don't freak out on him in some weird defensive backlash I personally am going to love RL on switch and won't be bothered by lowered specs but it's still interesting to me to see what compromises were made cuz I don't tie my self esteem to the video game consoles I own 👌👉👍 I hope I can match with steam players then it would truly be the ultimate version of RL!!

yep, don't buy games right when they drop, especially if there are no reviews or actual gameplay footage yet! granted its an e-shop game so the risk is minimal but still a good principle to live by i think me after having not made a single disappointing gaming purchase in years:  also zelda loving owns god drat
