The courses are cool, but when I am sat playing with friends and predicting what weapons will come up, where they will hit etc... it just ruins it. Crash Team Racing has me quite excited. Loved that on PS1, played for hours to perfect drift racing. That's what makes mario kart great-the controversy it causes. Me and my friends have had hours of fun on it.

Keyblade Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 The new Mario Party looks great, but only being able to play with the joycons sucks. Means the game will cost a minimum of 300 bucks just to have a decent experience with family/friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait, I thought you only get 1 joycon with the system? If it's 2 then that's not so bad even though the price of 1 joycon is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Anyone see Nintendo direct t last night? Was probably the best one yet. Some really good games coming out. 2019 is going to be a huge year for switch. Mario maker 2 looks awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted February 14, 2019 Author VT Supporter Share Posted February 14, 2019 It was a decent showing. The Links Awakening remake was a welcome surprise. That's genuinely one of the best Zelda games ever made, and should be played by anyone that likes the series. A shame the art style is a bit shite. I was hoping there would be a Metroid Prime trilogy announcement, but it wasn't to be. I'm convinced that will happen though. I also think they will release a Mario Galaxy port at some point. Otherwise there was decent stuff on the Direct. The new Platinum game looks interesting, Mario Maker 2 will excite a lot of people, Yoshi's Crafted World still looks good, Daemon x Machina still looks intriguing, Tetris 99 is a ridiculous idea but also maybe the best idea ever, port of FFIX is always appreciated... Looks like a solid year ahead for the Switch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mario maker 2 looks great and the one that really excites me is marvel alliance. It looks terrific. What makes you think Mario galaxy wilm be ported over? I think 3d world is mor r elikely Edited February 14, 2019 by Demitri_C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marvel Ultimate Alliance looked fun. Mario Galaxy was ported to the NVIDIA Shield in China, which isn't far removed from the Switch hardware wise. It would be a fairly easy job to port. I could also see 3D World coming to Switch as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't played number three so that's a shame. Ah really so that's a good shout then. I would love them to do a HD version of Mario 64. With Mario maker I am not sure how they are going to get this to work. The hardware is so different to the wii u where it worked really well. One things for sure my pockets are going to feel very light come the summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCU Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 After reading through this thread, doing extensive research online/YT I'm gonna be picking one of these up this week! Just not sure where to buy. Ideally, I want to pick one up with Pokemon but can't find any deals anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very unusual for discounts on any of their consoles until they are right at the very end of their lifespan and even then is is usually just retaillers dumping stock rather than anything nintendo led. If you specifially wanted the pokemon bundle/console it might be worth trying smytys toys if you have one nearby as they were doing them for £320 for a while. Shows as out of stock onlike but might be a few left on a shelf somewhere Edited February 19, 2019 by LakotaDakota Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But definitely pick one up 2019 is going to be huge for switch. The pokemon game is bloody brilliant, still playing it as we speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted February 26, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted February 26, 2019 Love this console. A shame there aren't more big NIntendo titles for it though. I've got Mario Kart, Zelda and Mario Odyssey and kind of feel like I've got all the big games I'm interested in. Pokemon is the only other one but I've never been a big fan of pokemon games. I find turn based combat really really boring. It even turned me off FF7. And I've never been a Smash Bros fan either. Are there any other big games I'm missing?
