Imagine buying a WiiU and not a Switch because of the library :snicker

Switch really gives me “playin with my old brick gameboy in a tree” vibes when I play it in my hammock, can’t wait to really stroke that nostalgia boner when the LA remake comes out, I used to beat it like once a day in the summer eating plums in a plum tree.

It's fan-made.

If it were real I'd have to consider buying it, so maybe that's a good thing.

By the way, the d-pad placement is wrong. It should be above the left stick, on the same level as the face buttons on the right. Basically like PS Vita or Wii U Pro Controller.

Since preorders are up I grabbed one for the Pokemon version on Amazon. Dunno if I'll keep it but it's usually good to grab one in case it's looking to be rare. They sold out in like a minute so that's a good sign.

Cant decide whether to get this or a regular switch

nachobro · « **Reply #134 on:** July 30, 2019, 12:29:47 PM »

Unless you plan to never play on a TV, I'd wait for the regular one with the better battery. Or if you have really small hands cause the Lite looks to be a good bit smaller of a device all around.

nachobro · « **Reply #135 on:** July 30, 2019, 12:35:16 PM »

Here's hoping it's extra rare so I can flip it to some Pokemon mark for a dumb markup

costs me nothing to preorder, if it's not looking like it'll flip well i just cancel it

Bloodstained isn't that bad and it also gets some pretty great ports.

There's tons of games... if you're 12 y/o or the kind of fekkit that didn't have any of the other 20 platforms that played Resident Evil 5 in the last decade (and long realized it's shit anyway). And which probably offer it at a fraction of the Switch port's price right now

There's a few things I thought I'd rather play on a handheld, like Capcom Beat'Em'Up Bundle, but the exclusives still can't justify the thing and everything else is just too expensive considering it's almost all retro. Rather get Megadrive Mini for a little more than the price of whatever single full priced 10 y/o Switch port.

e: also gotta wait on what deficits the new hardware is showing down the line.

I've done that with other Nintendo consoles, but this one has a really good amount of multiplat/indie/ports that have made me go more PC/Switch than PC/PS4. I play my PS4 way, way less than I used to now.

The dark, dark secret of the Switch is that people gushing about "all these games" just want to play them on a handheld, because they are bad people with bad taste that should feel bad. The Switch's library is like 3 great exclusives (Fire Emblem, Mario Odyssey, and Breath of the Wild but I mean I guess you could count the weeeeooo version whatever) and a bunch of ports and indie jank, it's just that people like playing shit on handhelds for some ungodly reason.

The dark, dark secret of video games in general this gen is that each platform only has a couple* of great exclusives. IDK I guess if you're into soulsborne games, Bloodborne is a great game you can only play on PS4. I am not, so ymmv. Other people really liked HZD, I thought it was ok. Dad of War? I bought it for $20 and haven't opened it yet. With the HD consoles you're really just paying for a box that will play multiplat stuff in higher resolutions on your teevee. I mostly game on my pc.

*not counting the Xbone, which has none lol

Very much agree with pretty much everything that you said, but I think Nintendo has just knocked it out of the park with their fist-party games and exclusives. YMMV and all that. Sony went really downhill this gen IMO. Their Japan Studio feels like its barely there and then all their western games are "AAA" cinematic third-person action games and

. I like me some Uncharted but that's all I was able to get into.

And then Microsoft...uh- I appreciate not having to bother with an Xbone since just about everything is on PC, but...where are their games not called "Forza?" Not even sure I want to bother with Woke-Gears anyway.

I think the true dark secret is that all of these games could have been done on the 360 with worse graphics but otherwise minimal changes.

I stopped playing Gears 4 really fast. Just got bored.

Gears 5 is the woke one though.

Is it? I just saw Kate was the main character. As long as it's fun I can deal. Never much cared about the Gears story. The technical beta or whatever they did recently felt good on PC and Xbone so I'm in.

Plus it's free with Gamepass on both systems anyway

Microsoft first party is like most Netflix originals.
Fun for a short time but nothing memorable and talent goes to waste.

Just look at Control vs. the Microsoft produced Quantum Break. Which by the way was named "Control" because Remedy themselves are in Control of the direction.
Hell, not even a god tier developer like Hideki Kamiya could finish a game with Microsoft looking over his shoulder.

But they got Sea of Thieves. Hey, did you guys play Sea of Thieves yet? There's some real Thieving in the Seas!

kingv · « **Reply #168 on:** July 31, 2019, 07:15:50 PM »

All the Microsoft chine first party games feel sort of “off” like they decided to try to cheap out on the production values or something.

I can put my finger on exactly what elements make them feel cheaply done, but they always have this sort of shovelware quality to things that aren’t central to the game play.

Like the voice acting is bad, the menus are ugly, the interface kind of sucks, etc.

Sony 1st party stuff is just very safe and sort of uninteresting. Lots of graphical spectacle over so-so games. In truth I could do without the first party contributions of either console this gen. Nintendo is the only one making good first Party games anymore.
