TMS#FE is really the only thing I was keeping my Wii U for, bout to yeet it into the garbage where it belongs

[Great Rumbler]

Are there any other major Wii U exclusives other than XCX and Wonderful 101 that haven't been ported to Switch?

The GOAT

[james]

2nd place

[EchoRin]

Super Mario 3D World. And say pack it in with 3D Land to have a surefire hit release on Switch.

[Chooky]

also fatal frame 5. those are the only well known exclusives as far as I know.

[Himu]

I still can't believe they're remaking Famicom detective club

[bork]

also fatal frame 5. those are the only well known exclusives as far as I know.

Twilight Princess HD
Wind Waker HD
The NES Remix Packs
Game & Wario
Yoshi's Woolly World

Devil's Third
 

[Nintex]

VGA's are still coming. I can see Nintendo drop a new Zelda BOTW2 teaser there and maybe Oddessey 2 / 3D World port announcements. With Animal Crossing in March they might slide a Mario port in January / February because NSMBU did great for them.

The only mistake I can see happening is that they wait too long to ship a Switch Pro for dedicated gamers and early adaptors. Because with all the Dynamic Resolutions a whole bunch of games could instantly benefit from a spec bump.

[Himu]

I doubt they'll port Woolly World. They already put it on 3ds. Then again, they did the same with Xenoblade and that's now on Switch.

Also Switch has a LOT to do to be able top the Super Nintendo or the Nintendo DS as Nintendo's crowning jewel. It could easily be third place, though. But right now it has keep this up for 4-5 more years. Then we can see if it's better than SNES or DS.

Oh yeah. Can definitely vouch for Woolly World. Much better than Crafty World. Sure I may be a few flowers away from 100% CW, but it's an average game allin all peppered with some greatness. Woolly World is a much more enjoyable experience.

Edit: sorry Bork. I know you already gave me a like, but I have one more thing to add. The main theme in CW drives me up the wall. I HATE It. And then there is the standard tune that often plays in the first level of each world which is awful too. I can't fully remember anymore as I'm dabbling in other parts of the game, but yes. WW much better music than CW.

Personally I’d put it over DS at this point

Different strokes but



Not yet.

[bork]

Personally I’d put it over DS at this point

Same.  And 3DS- but I wasn't really that into either one of those, so easy pick for me.

I would like to see some 3DS port-ups, too- Mario 3D Land as mentioned and A Link Between Worlds especially.

3D Land is mediocre besides the post-game. Not worth it.

Link Between Worlds is fantastic and deserves it. It made me believe in Zelda again after skipping on Skyward Sword entirely.

[CatsCatsCats]

I bought DS at launch, never really lived up to what it could have been imo

Plenty of games took advantage of the touch screen and dual screen.

Top 5 system imo. The ps2 of handhelds.

[Himu]

I think Odyssey eclipsed Galaxy as my all time favorite Mario last night when I was trying to make the "impossible jump", played Balloon World for a few hours, and got some crazy ass moons in Sand Kingdom.

Game is gdlk

[EchoRin]

Shit that often plays in the first level of each world:



Shit that boots up the damn game:



Jesus Christ. You can understand why this game pisses you off right from the start and is essentially climbing uphill to my heart right off the bat.

Meanwhile. We get this stupendous track in Woolly World:



Damn. Daaaaaaaamn. When that 40 second mark kicks in

[Himu]

I'm a yoshi stan but can't play those games these days. Too kiddy and neutered. Is Woolly World deep in any sense?

[Cerveza mas fina]

How much will overwatch cost on switch?

[EchoRin]

Well, I never played Yoshi's Island (please don't beat me over the head) so I can't say. I mean I guess like any DK game if your only goal is to clear the levels then it's pretty easy. But if your goal is to to get K O N G in every level then there is your challenge? Same applies to to these last two Yoshi platformers.
These post game boss time runs have been tough with the challenges you have to complete in them. That's pretty typical for Nintendo though, eh.

[nachobro]

$40, also comes with one year nintendo online

[Nintex]

DS > 3DS

but 3DS had some very awesome highlights like Fire Emblem Echoes/Awakening, Samus Returns and many more.

The DS had more sleeper hits and surprises even in first party releases. Like Mario Kart DS was the best Mario Kart in a long time or Kirby's Canvas Curse. Plus a whole bunch of a weird third party games.

Switch is on track to beat both. But it needs METROID, F-Zero and some out of the left field stuff that isn't a port or remaster. I expect it destroys DS and 3DS by the end of 2020.

[james]

How can a system without Advance Wars be ranked better than a system with Advance Wars?

I'm sort of at peace that Waifu Emblem has taken over.
Maybe reboot AW with Panzer Waifu

Jesus Christ now that YI will be on snes app it's time to FIX THIS. TODAY. Because that's the day the app comes out of course.

No it‘s a way too easy cutesy platformer, in fact there was never a good game starring Yoshi.

I can see why people who look at first party output might go for 3DS. NSMB DS and the Zelda's were mediocre.

Also suck fat Plush Yoshi hog

Three months of online.  Tetris comes with one year.  And has a cartridge included if you buy it at retail!  And costs less! 

[BIONIC]

Devil’s Third was good fun.

Haters can suck a dick.

[Joe Molotov]

Tetris is F2P though and Overwatch isn't.

[team filler]

skyward sword rules

[EchoRin]

skyward sword rules

Isn't this also the heavily rumored HD port that will be landing on the Switch? Seems like it has to be.

[curly]

how many people really want to replay skyward sword? especially post-botw, it's going to feel so claustrophobic.

[Human Snorenado]

I mean zero probably but the real question is "how many manbabies will give nintendo money to put the game on their shelf/sd card for a 5 second dopamine rush?" and the answer is "many, many manbabies"

[bork]

Some sort of Switch Fit like device coming:

[EchoRin]

I mean I didn't play Twilight Princess until after BotW. Wii version too lol cause I bought a batch of Wii games I wanted to play when I got a Wii U and didn't get around to TP until after they released the HD version. C'est la vie.

My point being is that I'd take a Switch SS HD.

[Himu]

snes is up brehs

[Great Rumbler]

I would, depending on the price, because I missed out on it the first time around.

Switch all about that clean digital collection ungghhhu

Awwww yeah, gonna hit this up after dinner

[james]

IMO the Switch is shaping up to be Nintendo’s best system. They may shit the bed Wii Music style but fortunately we haven’t seen that yet.

1-2 Switch not garnering much attention while BOTW became the best selling Zelda game ever saved us from any possible blue ocean Nintendo gaffes

The Switch audience became pretty obvious to them early on, and thank fucking christ cause overall the Wii era was dire.

This post aged like raw fish

 

Long live blue ocean

Long live waggle

Also SNES soccer dude 

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

I don't fault Nintendo for doing Wii U ports. With the Wii U being a bomb and many of their first round of ports on Switch selling millions of copies, it’s inevitable. Surprised 3D World wasn’t announced but with NSMBU out this year, maybe they want to give it some space?

[Svejk]

Immediately the first thing I thought of too.

Skyward sword has some damn impressive dungeon designs.  Great OST too...  Better than the BOTW by far.

[CatsCatsCats]

This Demons Crest game is sick why have I never heard of it

[bork]

Weird that Puyo Puyo 2 is included with the SNES rom batch instead of Kirby's Avalanche.

Reminded me to go download the Super Famicom app from the J-eShop.  Not sure if anything is different on the games offered apart from the tennis and soccer games. 

Joe & Mac 2 is the third in a game series in Japan?  What was the original game then? 

EDIT: Congo's Caper is considered the sequel to the original game.

Guessing they didn't do it because of both NSMBU and Mario Maker 2. 

[bluemax]

Tetris is F2P though and Overwatch isn't.

Which is a shame because Overwatch should've always been F2P. Or not had fucking loot boxes.

[Himu]

Demon’s Crest is fucking sick.

[Himu]

Played more BOTW. Now I know I dropped Zelda for Mario. Mario has so many means of traversal and movement. Meanwhile in Zelda I just go on foot and travel takes forever. Getting a horse asap.

[HardcoreRetro]

Because they forgot to name it Gargoyle's Quest 3.

Are you even off the plateau yet?

[Himu]

Yeah. Days ago. I went to hyrule. Took a long way to kakariko apparently. Fought horseback’s bokoblins on foot and stole a horse. Arrived in kakariko and thought that would allow me to fast travel to it on my map. On the way back died without horse, horse didn’t come back. Later found a stable and learned you have to register the horse first. Last night caught another horse - wild this time - and registered it, and now back in kakariko. Hyrule Area is kind of slow and sucks so I’ll explore the rest of the world first. Want to learn how to fast travel to kakariko first tho.
