Speedo Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 I own the NES & SNES Classics though, those are great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meltdown Tracker Posted March 10, 2018 Report Share Posted March 10, 2018 Nintendo is still the only gaming company that isn't trying to blatantly rip off its customers though. What I mean is, when you buy their products or games, you're almost always getting the finished product. Microsoft, Sony, and most third party developers just want to nickel and dime you for as many different things as possible. Nintendo is the only console company that actually respects its customers.

They have by far the highest profit margins on their consoles manufactured and dominated the Wii-Xbox 360-PS3 cycle. The Switch is tracking pretty similar to Xbox One for global sales and they pretty much own the handheld market as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoulda named it something new, a lot people thought it was just an add on for the wii at first. Which is why they keep re-releasing Wii U games for the Switch, since nobody had a Wii U to buy them on. This is the reason I don't feel the desperate need to get a Switch yet, since I have a Wii U. Aside from Mario Odyssey, it feels like the best Switch games are on the Wii U as well (Zelda, Mario Kart 8, Splatoon 2 looks basically the same as Splatoon 1, etc...) I do want a Switch. But I don't feel like I need one yet. Metroid Prime 4 and Super Smash Bros (assuming it's a brand new Smash Bros and not just the Wii U version with a few extra characters/costumes) are definitely gonna be big reasons to finally get one though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkarrow Posted March 11, 2018 Report Share Posted March 11, 2018 That's exactly how I feel at this point. I bought a wii-u for my son's birthday a couple years back and I don't think we need to upgrade that just yet. He's still putting plenty of hours into Zelda and Mario Maker and a bunch of others still. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only ones that look really intriguing are Sea of Thieves, Red Dead Redemption 2, and the Dark Souls remaster. Maybe Battlefield if EA doesn't fuck it up too much with microtransactions. def RDR2. For some reason im excited for spiderman. Gameplay looks fun. And also death stranding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheerios4u98 Posted March 12, 2018 Report Share Posted March 12, 2018 I hope Spider-man is good. I get my hopes up for every Spider-man game and they've all been letdowns since Ultimate Spider-man. And even that didn't have the amazingly fun swinging mechanics that Spider-man 2 had. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russel Coight Posted March 13, 2018 Report Share Posted March 13, 2018 I’ve got a lot of hopes on Spider-Man. It’s looking promising atleast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low Value Boy Posted March 13, 2018 Report Share Posted March 13, 2018 I'm looking foward to Days Gone, is basically Sons of Anarchy crossed with the Walking Dead. It could be rubbish but I think it looks promising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fucking awful at it though. I've come top 2 twice and top 3 a handful of times, but haven't won a game (solo) yet. But I still have a blast playing it, every game is always different.

I won solo once with 13 kills and i was so god damn pumped. Sometimes i do alright and get like 5 kills and sometimes i do shit.

Speedo Posted March 14, 2018 Report Share Posted March 14, 2018 I have never played it, seen clips if people playing it ... no clue what's going on at all. As far as I can discern it's an FPS Battle Royale with carpenters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I can discern it's an FPS Battle Royale with carpenters. Pretty accurate. It's a third person shooter, Battle Royale with destructible environments and the ability to build a bunch of cool stuff with 3 different materials that differ in fortitude (wood, brick, and metal). The game runs really smoothly as they recently upped it to 60 FPS. Art style works well and the controls are really tight. The best part of the game is that they frequently update it with new weapons, modify the map, and provide plenty of aesthetics and challenges as well. Should be interesting to see how the new mobile version plays. It's one of the better free-to-play games out there, as it is not pay to win but rather just pay for aesthetics and more challenges/xp. It would be cool if they added vehicles at some point, like PUBG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
