Nope, different devs. Also a difficult 2D platformer though.

Celeste is good and similar to meat boy but its better. It even has modifiers if you cant be fucked to actually try and learn the game.

The chapter 9 dlc is pretty much a big fuck you to casual players and encourages you to use the modifiers to discover Celeste's dark secret

Sounds sick

[CatsCatsCats]

I enjoyed a played through of Celeste, solid platformer, really liked how quickly it let’s try again when you fuck up

[Cindi Mayweather]

I need a bigger SD card. Thinking 200 gb.

Got a spare 64 gb card I had for 3ds here to start out with.

Go for 400.  Price has dropped a lot- they're like $53 on Amazon right now.  Only about $20 more than a good 200 GB card!

[Cindi Mayweather]

Anyone have NSMBU Deluxe and DKC Tropical freeze switch they wanna get rid of

HORRENDOUS backtracking in the original LA hopefully fixed.

It's clickbait.  He hasn't played it and is just regurgitating information from other sites/announcements.

[Cindi Mayweather]

I watched it and it was still pretty informative.

You have more warp in it which is my main concern.

[Sho Nuff]

Screen protector installed, looks lovely and can't even tell it's there.

Still hitting Dragon's Dogma hard. Respeced to Magic Archer and having a blast. Still not sure how big the map is, jamming on the big city at the moment. Not sure when any other of my Switch games are gonna get any playtime

[Cindi Mayweather]

Castlevania II is much better than anyone gives it credit for. Much better than Zelda II and its shitty combat.

[CatsCatsCats]

Firmware update is up- actually adds features, including invites to people on your friends list to play games online HOLY SHIT YOU CAN ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING WITH YOUR FRIENDS LIST NOW 

How do you actually invite ppl tho? I couldn’t find the option anywhere last night

[Cindi Mayweather]

Demi I gave Celeste a test run and did the first chapter. Solid stuff.

[Cindi Mayweather]

Need a controller with a good d-pad?  Take your pick!

[Cindi Mayweather]

Snes pad looks like it doesn’t have an indention on x/y.

I prefer Saturn pad to Genesis because of 8 way dpad. That genesis pad is close enough. Get.

They have both SNES and SFC style buttons with the designs! 

I like the Saturn pad better, too, and perhaps one day 8Bitdo will make one- I got the Retrobit Saturn pad that came out (don't think it works with Switch) and returned it immediately.  The quality was just shit. 

8Bitdo makes really solid controllers nowadays and they work perfectly with the Switch, plus you can use them with your PC, Android, etc.

[Cindi Mayweather]

Pics of SFC controller with the button indents on X/Y?

[Chooky]

sfc controller didnt have intents noob

[BisMarckie]

Also watch and learn Sony. Nintendo allows you to go to eshop without closing the game you’re playing.

edit: is detention good?

You don‘t close the game when you open the PS Store though.

[Cindi Mayweather]

sfc controller didnt have intents noob

Sorry I’m thinking of SNES. Really like those.

[bork]

You can see it in this video.

[Tasty]

Yup that's the reason the American SNES controller is the best.

Vita 2 has arrived.

[Rahxephon91]

I mean this actually has games people want to play so no.

[Occam]

As did Vita, so yes.

[Rahxephon91]

The PlayStation Vita has one of the worst library of games of any PlayStation console. Especially compared to the PSP. I don’t even like the Switch, but at least if I started a thread asking for JRPG recommendations it wouldn’t be filled with shit Idea Factory games and have to be prettied up by PS1 classics. 

Oh boy it has Persona 4 Golden and an Uncharted game no one would give two shits about otherwise. It’s big marque title a PS2 port(FFXHD) is also on the Switch and better along with better versions of every PS1 FF and XII.

Great hardware. Terrible library of games that can probably all be played elsewhere.

[Occam]

Vita had a great library for people who like good games, and it allowed you to play those games on the go, which is the point you missed so very badly.

[Cindi Mayweather]

PSP da gawd

[Cindi Mayweather]

Yup that's the reason the American SNES controller is the best.

snes controller with sfc colors. Give me NOW.

[Rahxephon91]

Such as....Usually when people make a point in these kind of things they point to some sort of games.

And no I did'nt miss it. I played a kind of shitty,but perfectly playable version of MGS2/3 on the Vita. I played Dead or Alive 5 on the train. I was able to play FFVI on car rides just like on the PSP.

But when I looked for good games beyond games I could already play better/comfy couch versions of, what was there. Senran Kagura? Boob games? Visual novels? Shitty jrpgs.

The Switch is'nt Vita 2 because there's actual exclusives for people that aren't looking to bottom feed.

Edit-Oh yeah Gravity Rush was great.....I'll just play the PS4 version now though.

About the only game I own thats best on the Vita is what....Muramasa.

Edit 2-Oreshika is kind of neat I guess.

Edit-3 Oh yeah Ys Memories was pretty fun and probably my favorite of the party member Ys games. I bought that when I got a Vita and had very little after that..

[Cindi Mayweather]

Ys and Gravity Rush were the ONLY games that enticed me to ever getting a vita.

There's plenty of good games on the Vita.  It didn't fail because of its game library.

Are you talking about the Vita or the Switch?  I can't tell!

I want to make emoticons out of the people in the YT preview pic.

[demi]

Vita battery also lasts longer than 2 hours haha XD portable btw XD

[kingv]

I guess it looks better than Wii fit?

[Svejk]

I want to make emoticons out of the people in the YT preview pic.

Way too many sexual references to be made...  ring tensions, squatting, inserting, strap-ons...  too easy.

They should make a Sonic game with that... running and grabbing rings and whatnot   

[james]

Blue ocean baby ride that wave

[james]

The game has a “quiet” mode, so that if you live in an apartment or want to play at night without waking anyone, you can do a series of squats instead of jogging to move through the levels.

My butt is going to be so fucking hard

DQ 1-3 Collection is available for pre-order.

[mormapope]

Vita has some of the best PS1/all-time JRPGs, along with PSP bangers as well. I'm a proud PSTV owner. Best micro console ever. 

[CatsCatsCats]

Imagine thinking a dual shock is the best anything

[team filler]

dual shocks 

dual cocks 

[BisMarckie]

The DS4 is legit good. Good d-pad and the triggers are decent as well. Certainly better than the abomination that was the DS3.


That battery life though

[Cerveza mas fina]

I got a 256GB card today, so nice I will be able to have Diablo, Overwatch and much more at my fingertips now.

Got Overwatch yesterday for 23 quid too from some UK site.

Fuck there is so many games. Ill be playing on the switch for ages to come.

I can tell. I’m thinking of the Vita. I actually have options for non bottom of the barrel games on the Switch.

And of course it was the library that was part of the Vita’s failure. It’s crap. Unappealing to anyone not hovering over the new release section of Playasia.com. So yeah you Bork may find Valkyrie Burst Drive Girls or something a worthwhile release. Anyone not looking for just otaku level shit is screwed.

It’s so bad I’m taking a Nintendo console over it.

Great hardware though.

[Occam]

Vita has some of the best games ever, like Binding of Isaac and Spelunky. You not appreciating good games is not a problem of the console, it's yours.

weeb alert weeb alert

[Cindi Mayweather]

I’m a weeb and even I didn’t touch vita

[Cerveza mas fina]

Vita was cool af.

[Spieler1]

tbf switch is getting all the vita pedo weeb shit now. and non-weeb vita fanboys also only ever hyped up old ports like switch fanboys.

[Occam]

The ignorance of the usual suspects is showing.
There were many great games you could only play portably on Vita at the time.

Wow 2 games that can be played anywhere. No, those aren’t my kind of games but I also wouldn’t need a Vita for those at all. I guess your point is the Vita as a portable made them better or something. But I don’t buy consoles to play games I can play everywhere else. I buy consoles to play games you need the console for(at the time anyway). And honestly it’s just the Vita that has this problem. Gameboy, DS, 3DS, and even PSP all had and/or still do have a library of games exclusives to them. Who’s buying a Switch for ports? Ports are neat after the fact. Yeah having FFXII a game I’ve played many times on the Switch is cool. But I sure didn’t buy the Switch to just play games I can play a multitude of other places.

I mean I own a Vita. I didn’t just want to use it to play ports of indie games, PS1 games, and visual novels. That’s what the system became.
