My problem with Switch friends list is that you can only add people if it's two way. If someone adds you, you don't even see the friend request. It's so dumb.

No, you get notified if someone adds your friend code; you don't need to know theirs.

I can confirm Switch is different. Adding friend codes can be a one-way process (with the other side only needing to confirm requests.)

Cadence of Hyrule is incredibly good and so was Mario vs Rabbids Nintendo should lend out their IPs more often.

Got mine setup and charging - how long before it's fully ready to roll, there's barely any instructions included!
Looks like about 3 for the console, 3.5 for the joycons.

Can't wait to play #ACNH with all you lovely people again (or for the first time.

It's dumb as shit but the reactions to Animal Crossing (35:02), Banjo (39:52) and BotW2 (42:50; especially the Nintendo Store girls on the left) really warmed my heart after an extremely shitty day.

LOL. We went there a few months ago- everybody working there was really friendly and seemed to really enjoy being there. Nobody tried to sell me shit I didn't want. It was like the anti-Gamestop.

It's confusing as fuck and doesn't make any sense. Probably just better to think of it as a hard reboot -- pretty sure it either explicitly de-canonizes most of the Kanto character progression from Gold/Silver, or comes close to it.

This is a comfort food game for me. I've run through it so many times since it's pretty short but still feels epic enough in length. Great music too.

demi · « **Reply #5121 on:** June 18, 2019, 12:56:46 PM »

honestly you're better off playing Adventures of Mana over the original. But the original is ok too.

archnemesis · « **Reply #5122 on:** June 18, 2019, 04:30:59 PM »

I've barely touched the series before and I look forward to trying all games. The Switch is the perfect platform for me since I can play 5-20 minutes at a time.

Honestly, maybe?

It wouldn't be outside the realm of possibility for one of the million Chinese case manufacturers to see a listing for a "Nentindo Swich" on Alibaba and jump into manufacturing to beat the competition. And it would behoove a business to 1. market a product ahead of time, and 2. frame themselves as the "original leakers" of an upcoming product.

Like, the Nentindo Swich I mentioned is probably a real thing you can buy for $30. And these cases will probably fit it as designed. So both are "real products," but only in a keeping it real fake kinda way.

Tasty · « **Reply #5129 on:** June 19, 2019, 10:56:32 AM »

I'm mostly going off the render in the original pic.

The product shots in the second pic are more convincing, but they have an air of fan edit to them.

The opposite. I haven't joined any hate mobs but I'm extremely disappointed in the decisions being made and I won't be buying Sword or Shield.

I will be moving my Pokemon from Bank to Home, but I won't be buying another main series game until I can I port them all into said game

Did everything that there is to do in Yoku's Island Express, yet my completion is only 94%. Oh well. I enjoyed it, now on to the next one.

I got the hang of Crypt of the Necrodancer. It's pretty addictive. I want Cadence of Hyrule even more now, but I'll wait until I finish this one and a few other Switch games.

I think it was fun enough for the few hours I played but it did get samey. I might go back one day cause there really isn't much wrong with it. Its charming and fun to play.

pilonv1 · « **Reply #5140 on:** June 22, 2019, 10:24:34 PM »

I'd definitely get it especially considering it's been on sale a few times now. The writing and music is great, but the golf is very basic. But as Lager said it's very samey and most of the later courses rely on gimmicks to make them challenging.

One single answer:

Nintex · « **Reply #5145 on:** June 25, 2019, 05:56:46 PM »

Based IGA is switching resources to fix the Switch version of Bloodstained.

Something tells me they ran out of cash and now that the game actually sells they can afford these updates.

Tasty · « **Reply #5146 on:** June 25, 2019, 06:13:58 PM »

Was hoping that'd be the case. Looking forward to the fixes.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #5147 on:** June 25, 2019, 06:49:05 PM »

Whew, almost bought it earlier today out of boredom but I'll wait until I hear the fixes land. I'm still playing through Tales of Vesperia before Fire Emblem anyway

kingv · « **Reply #5148 on:** June 25, 2019, 06:49:46 PM »

Is it completely dog shit broken?

I sort of expected that.:-/

Edit: looks like 150 ms of input lag. They must have shipped the stadia version.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #5149 on:** June 25, 2019, 06:53:09 PM »

No clue, the videos and reviews I've seen of it make it seem like the game is pretty well done, but they could have been playing pc/ps4 versions. The response in general has been so good that I decided I want to play it, but I can wait.

edit: lol Iga plz

Curse of the Moon on Switch is still A+ tho 👌🏻

Trent Dole · « **Reply #5151 on:** June 25, 2019, 07:12:29 PM »

It's an indie(ish) game releasing on every major platform at once, of course its going to be a mess at launch. There's also all of the stretch goal stuff for them to do as DLC on top of making it run well on every platform. I'd be surprised if everything releases before the years end tbh. If you're up for waiting go ahead, you'll have an actual finished stable product waiting for you. I'm a KS backer and waited for this thing for ages so I'm content to stumble through the issues which honestly aren't that major on the PC version anyway.

I posted this in the Bloodstained thread:

Tried the Switch version. It's not as bad as I've read some say it is...

...But I wouldn't play it on there over the versions, either. You can immediately feel the downgrade to 30 FPS and the lower resolution is kinda rough. That said, the game still looks pretty good on there and the framerate is consistent enough that the game play is still smooth. If I didn't have any other platforms, I'd be fine playing it on here, but you're definitely going to want to get this on PS4, Xbone, or PC over this version.

At 30 FPS, it's honestly still fine. This isn't a situation like with say, SNK Heroines, where it running at 30 FPS on Switch made it feel and play like dog shit. But this game is so good and worth playing on the other platforms for its better performance.

Worth noting that the game runs on the GPD Win 2 at like 40-50 FPS normally and around 60 FPS undervolted-- at a lower resolution. I bet they could get the game to run better on the Switch if they also dropped the resolution down. Maybe just add it as "performance mode" or something.

I feel like there is room for the Switch port to look a lot better.

Imma wait because that’s where I really want to play it, these types of games are perfect for handhelds imo.

The resolution doesn’t bother me too much, but the input lag would.

Honestly didn't feel input lag (in handheld mode) and it felt fine- this is not a fighting game or character action game, so it's not as important, IMO. It's the 30 FPS that is very noticeable, but that's also because I've been playing it at 60 FPS. Hoping they improve the port, but also not going to wait and will go back to playing this on PC.
