its a good one also keep an eye out for crosscode if it comes to switch at some point

details of the leaked direct sound unseemly
― twitter is bad not good (||||||||), Monday, 7 January 2019 23:41 (five years ago) link
they're probably fake i dont think one has ever leaked in full but theres a zillion fakes every time

If I were to play Binding of Isaac would you guys recommend the Switch version over the $5 version on Steam?
― Screamin' Jay Gould (The Yellow Kid), Tuesday, 8 January 2019 01:47 (five years ago) link
i've only ever played it on a laptop so i can't say how controller stacks up vs keyboard but i think either you're likely to get an amazing gaming experience so probably pick whichever one you'd prefer to play on (or the cheaper one if all else is equal)

I have it on Switch- it's great on there! But I can't really say it beats it for $5 on PC...
My current set up makes it really easy to play in the living room and it's definitely fun as a portable option. So points there.
But $5 is a steal and currently it's taking a weirdly long time for the Switch version to update to the latest version. Should be any day now really but currently it's a version behind and is missing some items types, enemy types etc.

i've got the card game mcmillen made i haven't played it yet but it looks fun tho not as inspired as the original

Oh! Report back when you do.

some more release dates starting to trickle out
Yoshi's Crafted World - March 29Dragon's Dogma port - April 23

Bought both Guacamelles today, because they seemed to be on sale and look like cool games. Played a bit of the first, it's silly fun.

There's a Switch version of Out Run out today! A handheld version of the arcade, life would be fucking sweet if I was 8-year-old me now.
― Chuck_Tatum, Thursday, 10 January 2019 15:59 (five years ago) link
Which Out Run? the 2d one from the 80s? or one of the early 2k's 3d ones?
― suggest boban (Will M.), Thursday, 10 January 2019 16:18 (five years ago) link
should I buy NSMBUDS
what is the ILG consensus
― twitter is bad not good (||||||||), Thursday, 10 January 2019 16:23 (five years ago) link
xp original arcade Outrun, only major change I think is more songs to choose on the stereo
new release datesFFX/X2 14th AprilDragon's Dogma 23rd AprilFFXII 30th April

Also need consensus on NDMBUDS
Loved Odyssey, Loved Marios 3 & World, was kinda blah on DK Tropical Freeze
― Chuck_Tatum, Thursday, 10 January 2019 16:41 (five years ago) link
aw nuts, i woulda bought one of the 3d ones on the spot re: outrun, i just played plenty of the 2d one in Yakuza 0 anyway haha
man there are few games i like as much as outrun 3d/2/2003/whatever it was called, that shit cancelled some panic attacks for me on darker days
― suggest boban (Will M.), Thursday, 10 January 2019 16:52 (five years ago) link
OutRun 2006: Coast2Coast
that's the one
― suggest boban (Will M.), Thursday, 10 January 2019 16:53 (five years ago) link
i don't like the NSMB games, they're Nintendo at their most conservative. if you like super mario world they're basically just more of that with a clinical modern take on the presentation. ive only played the wii one but nothing I've seen of this one suggests its any more than a hd iteration on that. they do have co-op though
― ciderpress, Thursday, 10 January 2019 16:59 (five years ago) link
Interesting development on the Smash Bros. front: my 14-year old daughter is hopeless, but my 11-year old often wins!
― Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 10 January 2019 17:06 (five years ago) link
I think it exposes players that get by on button mashing. It doesn’t work to your advantage in that game the way it does in something like street fighter
― Evan, Thursday, 10 January 2019 17:12 (five years ago) link
Anyway apropos of nothing here’s my most anticipated right now
Untitled Goose GameSayonara Wild HeartsWargrooveMineko’s Night MarketAnimal CrossingPokémon 2019Luigi’s Mansion 3???Daemon X Machina?????

Oh right fire emblem, I’m into that
I’m dropping Amazon prime finally so I’m not sure if I’ll be doing physical preorders this year, we’ll see what happens.

I'm sceptical re wargroove. not sure I really want an non-intelligent systems AW rip. similarly I'd like UGG to be good but colour me hmmmm for now
most anticipated:

― twitter is bad not good (||||||||), Thursday, 10 January 2019 18:39 (five years ago) link
the yoshi game looks great presentation-wise but those games don't always get the gameplay into a satisfying place where it's not just too easy or too slow all the time
― ciderpress, Thursday, 10 January 2019 18:40 (five years ago) link
Sadly there is nothing I've seen coming out on Switch that I'm excited about at all, but I'm generally a Nintendo 1st-party AAA title kinda guy. I've got my Mario, Kart, Smash and Zelda.
― DJI, Thursday, 10 January 2019 18:54 (five years ago) link
XXP I don't mind if they reuse the BotW engine, but I really hope the next Zelda is as different from BotW as BotW was from previous Zeldas. I had no idea Dusk was headed to Switch, I found out about that game only recently and it looks like a blast.
― days of being riled (zchyrs), Thursday, 10 January 2019 18:56 (five years ago) link
last thing I saw on dusk said that the developers were working hard on the console releases, with switch prioritised over PS4/xbone
― twitter is bad not good (||||||||), Thursday, 10 January 2019 18:57 (five years ago) link
theres been rumblings that the 2d zelda team may have a game coming
― ciderpress, Thursday, 10 January 2019 18:57 (five years ago) link
yoshi games seem like the place where mediocre nintendo ideas go to die. (i don't count SMW:Yoshi's Island as a Yoshi game).
― Karl Malone, Thursday, 10 January 2019 19:00 (five years ago) link
i havent played woolly world but it got a lot of 'this one's actually good' when it came out
― ciderpress, Thursday, 10 January 2019 19:02 (five years ago) link
i'll play frostpunk on whatever system it comes out on (that i own) first. any word on whether it's coming out for switch? i kept hearing about a mac port but no news in a while.
― Mordy, Thursday, 10 January 2019 19:09 (five years ago) link
no clue, those sorts of pc strategy games dont always bother with consoles because of how kb+m dependent the gameplay is. don't know if thats the case for that one in particular
― ciderpress, Thursday, 10 January 2019 19:11 (five years ago) link
as a counterpart to anticipated, what IPs do people wish would get new life on switch
advance wars and F-zero for me
― twitter is bad not good (||||||||), Thursday, 10 January 2019 21:37 (five years ago) link
f-zero sure. i think all the other Nintendo owned franchises i like are active
― ciderpress, Thursday, 10 January 2019 21:45 (five years ago) link
def want a switch warioware or rhythm heaven

jsut want them to freaking let me make a 3ds a controller and give me the zelda four swords/crystal chronicles/et al gaggle of games i crave. THE WII U WAS SO CLOSE TO GETTING IT RIGHT i'm still salty about this
i mean i guess if i don't get to change the rules of reality, fuckin, idk, uniracers i guess
― suggest boban (Will M.), Thursday, 10 January 2019 21:50 (five years ago) link
they're rereleasing crystal chronicles on here idk if it'll have local co-op though or just online
― ciderpress, Thursday, 10 January 2019 22:10 (five years ago) link
bubble bobble
also plz remake galaxy I & II for switch
― Mordy, Thursday, 10 January 2019 22:37 (five years ago) link
those games don't need a remake they look fine blown up to hd res bc it's all color and shape no fancy textures
― ciderpress, Thursday, 10 January 2019 22:45 (five years ago) link
they should put them on switch though i agree
they'd have to rebind galaxy bc wii controls but should be easy im-totallyuninformed-o
― Mordy, Thursday, 10 January 2019 22:50 (five years ago) link
why can't they just convert it to the two pads/two hands setup?
― Nhex, Thursday, 10 January 2019 22:52 (five years ago) link
yeah! exactly!
― Mordy, Thursday, 10 January 2019 22:52 (five years ago) link
yeah i dunno how they'd do the pointer to collect the gem things but that's not really core to the gameplay anyway iirc and the spin move can just be a button and not a waggle
― ciderpress, Thursday, 10 January 2019 22:53 (five years ago) link
Would love Galaxy on Switch. As for what I'm looking forward to ... who knows. My kid wants Animal Crossing, I suppose Metroid could be good. Um, what else? Doom sequel? I loved Luigi's Mansion on Gamecube. Did Mark of the Ninja ever come out? My Friend Pedro? I assume we'll get a WarioWare. Those games are so simple and dumb I'm surprised we haven't gotten it yet.
― Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 10 January 2019 22:55 (five years ago) link
mark of the ninja happened but the port was apparently bad dunno if they've patched it up since
