The Nintendo Switch Thread! - Deadly Premonition 2: Blessing in Disguise 7/10 - Paper Mario: The Origami King 7/17

Took me a second to realize OT = Octopath Traveler.

Naw. I haven’t tried it. I should probably do the prologue demo since I plan on buying the game on release (have it preordered already on amazon).

I’m super excited. I haven’t played a real traditional rpg since Bravely Second Layer

I’m playing Octopath Traveller demo. Is one file saves a Nintendo thing because I fucking hate it. Otherwise I’m enjoying it. I started with the Hunter.

Ok, I’m starting to think at least some people that claim to have finished Wizard of Legend are outright lying. There’s some shit here that is just plain unreasonable, man… and I think I mentioned before…since it is a action “roguelike” and not like a regular RPG where your character evolves and becomes more powerful…you’re just fucked over all the damn time. I’m not even sure how the bosses are beatable, really… maybe there’s 1 combo of powers that works but most shit just doesn’t mean anything…you’ll rarely get a chance to try anything against them. It’s like you’re Jimmy Olsen fighting against a tag-team of Pre-Crisis Superman and Ultra Instinct Goku every time… attacks taking up nearly the entire screen, homing projectiles, etc. etc…in a game with barely any healing methods at all…if you get hurt slightly earlier in a level and that may as well be a Game Over right then and there.

Not a Nintendo thing since Squeenix is deving the game plus BotW had more than one save file.

I need to pry myself a way from Xenoblade. Just when I put it away, they go and add Shulk and Fiona. This game, I probably could have saved myself a lot money just played nothing but Xenoblade. I still haven’t finished all the base content. They keep adding more.

I finally started playing it. It’s only for the demo. They even say “select your save slot” when you go to save the game. I think they did this to keep people from playing through all the prologues and having a save file for each.

There is this mission in the splatoon dlc thats pretty fuckin frustrating right now. You have to defend the orb from a bunch of octarians and it seems managable at first until they closer to then when they start using supers and they are coming drom all sides. Feels like you can’t kill them fast enough and you are always out of ink.

IIRC they played this mission on stream and nobody passes it.


Koopa troopa And blooper will be available through online tournaments in July and August but will be free DLC in August and September.

Did anyone preorder Mario Aces from Amazon? I’m just curious if it has release day shipping for you and if it does, if it’s already been shipped to you.

I preordered today and there is no release day shipping option available, and when I chatted with them they told me the retailer did not authorize release day shipping, so just curious.

Just played the Toad Tracker demo. Just preordered it on Amazon after since it’s only $32 with prime. The game is pretty fun I just hope you can change the damn invert of the Y axis on the camera. That was fucking me up quite a bit.

I preordered on amazon the day it was announced on the direct and was guaranteed release day shipping. It shipped on Yesterday and is on track to delivered to me Friday.

Thanks, I guess I was just a day late. Sucks cause I’m going to my buddies on Saturday for a “game day” and it would be fun to have it there. Oh well I’ll have to wait till Monday.

Someone is working on making a vertical stand/handheld adapter for the Switch.

For now is there any portable stand options that allow horizontal and vertical play that also can allow you to charge?

Being able to keep my case on my Switch would be a nice bonus too.

Yeah Amazon fucks up the release dates. Sometimes everything is perfect but more then Half of my own orders usually arrive a day or two late.

I’ve never had an issue with release day shipping if it had it when I ordered the item. It’s always arrived on release day. I just ordered it too late to get release day shipping.

Got Mario Tennis, hope to play against you guys!

looking to pick up a switch…does anyone know of any good deals online?

You can check this site for any deals that comes up

I wouldn’t count on any deals happening for the foreseeable future. The console is still new and selling a ton of units at it’s current price point.
