No support for pro controller = Instant fuk off, for me.

Yeah doesnt really make sense. Super Mario Party also has no pro controller support, but it actually makes sense since most of the mini games utilize the joy cons motion control.

I had this game pre ordered but with smash coming out next month I decided to pass on this game until the true Pokemon game comes out next year.

this

I already wasn't planning on getting it at launch but now I'm sure I'm not gonna get it ever lol

Youtube app seems to be coming to the Switch on the 8th of November

Is anybody getting Pokemon Let's Go Pikachu or Eevee? If so, which one and why?

[TokenV]

no Pro Controller support so not getting it

but hypothetically speaking I would have gone for Pikachu because it's just a far more important character in the series than Eevee imo

also I like yellow lol

[TokenV]

bought Tricky Towers in the eShop



it's more fun than it seems like lol

especially in local multiplayer it's a blast

not many matches online though

[KevC]

Finished the main story of hollow knight, playing the DLC bosses now. I have to say playing a precision based metroidvania game is **** on undocked / regular controls on the switch. If you are a fan of tehse type of metroidvania games make sure you play on docked with a controller lol

[TokenV]

for all the Streets of Rage (and side-scrolling beat 'em ups in general) fans: Mother Russia Bleeds arrived on the Switch (€ 15)



as you can see at the top of the screen local co-op is possible, 1 hour in so far and really like it

just for reference a trowback to the classic mentioned before (that soundtrack hngggg)



all 3 Streets of Rage games are also coming to the Switch in 2 weeks as part of the Sega Mega Drive/Genesis Classics collection, this is a must-buy for me especially at that price (€ 30)



also for those not aware: Streets of Rage 4 is in the making, hoping it well get a release on Switch as well (otherwise I will get it on my Xbone but would prefer Switch)



strong transformation on Blaze

from this:



to this:



hngggg lol

streets of rage HNGNNGGG

What do you guys think of 1-2 Switch?
I just got a switch and was thinking about getting that game for my kids. (8 & 10 yrs old)

A couple of the mini games seem ok, but others seem iffy/lame.
And I just skimmed though some reviews and they're kind of hit and miss. Some saying not to bother as is it's not worth it.
We have a Wii, so i thought this game would have some parallels to that experience.

got pikachu just cuz it's pikachu

but damn, the game is boring af. i dont think pokemon games are for me anymore. actually, i'm just not really fond of turn based JRPGs nowadays i guess

shovelware

This game wasnt really targeted towards the hardcore pokemon fans. Was more for probably todays youth that got into Pokemon GO and can now play it through the switch. Next years pokemon is going to be the real deal.

Anyone else luck out on the pricing error at Walmart for Diablo 3 and Doom?

[TimeTravelerBro]

No one is talking about Smash Bros Ultimate coming out in 2 weeks.

Well im buying day 1

i plan on buying it on the eshop tomorrow. EZ PZ purchase

I have it on pre-order (physical) but I will probably also buy it from the eShop for playing convenience lol - read it's around 16 GB?

for Switch I started buying Nintendo titles (and some 3th party exclusives like Bayonetta SE) physical to add to my collection and the rest digital

but for Smash I might just double-buy it since this is a game that is gonna be played often for the entire lifespan of the Switch so I don't want to switch cartridges constantly lol (I did the same for Mario Kart)

(I'm aware it may sound dumb but I have all Mario Kart, Smash Bros and Zelda titles physical (CIB) so I would like to keep it complete - that's why I also bought Breath of the Wild both for Switch and WiiU lmfao)

[ThunderStorm1]

Did you say NINTENDO

Duuuude I'm there
(hops in time machine/flying saucer and takes flight)

Pressing A&B buttons really fast and manuevering the direction pad as fast as possible.

Ive had it on pre order for months. Way before Amazon took away their discounts on prime pre orders. Was gonna cancel and get digital but im off that day anyays and usually dont have any issues with Amazon delivering games the day of and I dont want to miss out on that pre order discount

What are you guys doing for Smash Bros controller setup?

I bought a wired GC controller for $24 at Target, but then realized I need an adapter and the controller doesn’t work for many games. I havn’t opened it yet. Not sure if I should just use my Pro controller or return it and get a wireless GC controller instead.

I remember getting my ass worked online in Smash for Wii U and guys told me that playing on a GC controller is a big advantage. Me thinks I probably just really sucked at the game.

I haven't decided yet, I already have the adapter from the WiiU Smash and both regular GC controllers as Wavebirds that I can use so I can easily play with these

but I think I will start out with the Pro Controller and give it a chance, I really like the Pro

Disappointed with the switch games that have come out this year. Last year, Zelda, Mario Odyssey, and Mario kart made me feel like the system was worth buying into. This year, the only games I was interested enough to buy so far we've Mario tennis and Mario party, and they're both kinda lame. I also have hollow knight but I could have played that on other systems. I really hope they start coming out with some more good single player games. In the meantime, thank god for PS4 and its exclusives.

Have you tried Dragon Quest 11?

I've been plowing through it on the PC while thinking about how much better it would be on the Switch. It's a very good game and probably up your alley if you enjoy games like Zelda

Ive read many ppl who have played in retail stores and other showings that the pro controller feels really well. Im gonna stick with that for now

that's my plan as well. It's a good controller, time to move on

Just picked up my switch last week. Super excited to play BotW.

Best Buy had 128gb SD cards for 21 bucks for BF, so I feel like I did pretty good.

[euro7muscle]

Just bought myself one as an early birthday gift. Only got BotW, gonna work my way through this and then pick up Odyssey. As a PC/PS4 gamer this is definitely a different experience but I really enjoy it so far, mainly got it because I travel a ton for work so the mobility was what sold me!

Worth getting a switch to (but not limited) the Pokemon games? Was a huge fan of Gameboy/GBA pokemon, from blue/red all the way to heartgold and soulsilver.

But i've seen a few people say the new game is a bit dumbed down and only has good graphics.

Anyone play Civ 6 for Switch?

I played Civ on PC and when i played on the largest map with the most AI for a campaign that lasts weeks/months it would take 2 minutes for all the AI's turn to be computed. Did they remove the large map size or does it take 10 minutes for the AI to do their turn?

This has been the case with every Civ game aside from maybe Revolution. I doubt it would be any different on the Switch version of 6

I have a Titan Two adapter which I got to be able to play my 360/PS4 controllers on Switch. I think I'm just gonna use the dual shock 4 PS4 controller for smash. Everyone is hyping up the GC controller but none of them are perfect (the Nintendo official one lacks new switch features, the wireless one has weird triggers that don't activate until you press them all the way down and click). I figure I already have this adapter and the PS4 controller is at least as quality as the pro controller (the adapter even lets you use motion controls from the PS4) so I'll just use that.
