Nintendo Switch, the only console today making games which are games

[forumvisitor#451]

The Switch actually follows in the footsteps of the (3)DS in having quite a few exclusives, including RPGs. Bravely Default 2, last Fire Emblem, Pokemanz, SMT (as you mentioned), Xenoblade Chronicles (including the Wii remaster of the first), to name a few. Your mileage in enjoying these games may vary but it doesn't change the fact that the exclusives are decent games and make the console worth buying.

Speaking of (3)DS, what games do you consider to being worth to play on actual hardware as opposed on emulator?

I dunno, I don't emulate those games so I don't know how different they play, sorry.

Ocarina of Time 3D and Majora's Mask 3D in particular control better on the 3DS as they take advantage of the bottom touchscreen interface for item buttons. The original games had been designed with the N64 controller's 6 face buttons in mind rather than the now standard 4.

Mario 3D Land and A Link Between Worlds supposedly make good use of the 3d gimmick, though at least some of the puzzles in the latter were changed to be doable without 3D as the 2DS became a thing.

Good info. Also your name is funny.

It is an interesting game. To boldly go where none has before... It has heart in the right place. Not sure what's up with Taylor Swift in porn suit though.

Looks like a fun game to play with the daughter.

I had no clue it was even being developed.

And in the end we all know what happened.

They were lucky they didn't end up like Sega.

Thing is Nintendrones were actually dumb enough to believe it.

 

[SumDrunkGuy]

I was thinking about playing mine today. Still kills me that I spent $300 on it over a year ago and played it for a total of a couple hours.

30 years later you have to install all physical PlayStation/Xbox games while Switch games run straight from the cartridge.

Which are so slow that you can load faster from purchasing online and installing to an SD card.

That's the exact same thing I did with a used 3DS except I modded it and installed a whole bunch of games, the damn thing gave me hand cramps and I couldn't buy any grips for it since they discontinued them years after I bought the specific model. And most of the games were either bland rehashes, ports or no fun to me, I think the game I played the longest on it was just Super Mario 3D land.

 

[SumDrunkGuy]

Yeah I never understood the appeal of handheld gaming. It's uncomfortable and awkward as fuck. Just never felt right. Also Nintendo's exclusives are mostly for kids, manchildren, and gays/pedos.

Well you bought a Switch so which one are you?

 

[SumDrunkGuy]

I bought it for Metroid Prime 4 which turned out to be a giant scam. I also like the hardware. Pity it only has one game worth playing.

Even Switch games have patches to download, although they're much smaller than the massive 80GB+ patches some PlayStation/XBox games receive. With each console gen, the advantages of owning a console vs playing on PC have fallen away.

I've played it a little bit and it's p. fun.

It was devoid of challenge though as I've won 4 times in a row with ease - probably playing against 8yo kids

Getting Kirby fat is very satisfying - this game is a huge apology for obesity, which might make it right up kwans(like Fluent ) alley.

 

[SumDrunkGuy]

I embraced my inner Nintenderp and splurged a tiny bit.

 

[jawbone]

Yeah, any money that cuts into your alcohol budget could be considered a splurge. Nice titles, think it was worth it.

 

[Carpincho Pampeano]

I got the console on release so it´s been what, 6 years? But i was playing my Ps Vita and reading the manual of oreshika and thinking to myself, how do i read game manuals on the switch?

 

[Pound Meat]

Is the Switch Lite janky or is it the software? Street Fighter Collection played fine the first couple of times but now the down button is deactivated during games even though it still works on the menu. How does that even happen!

Update: Apparently the buttons got remapped so down was now a shoulder button. That was random but whatever. Game is hard to play with the standard controls, feels like you can't really get a grip on things when the action gets intense.
