Switch The Official Nintendo Switch Thread - Part 2

So happy that Golden Sun and Golden Sun 2 are finally here, it's been such a long time since I've played these two games, I remember being completely engrossed by these when they came out.

Only disappointed that it won't be an OLED. I'd happily pay a premium for one.

 

[Teelie]

I'd love more details like if reverse compatability with existing games and hopefully the dock are possible.

 

[KillerMcQueen]

At the very least backwards compatibility with games feels like a must have to me, especially for things like the virtual console apps, I don't want to have the next console launch with a bare bones or nonexistent classic library again, where we have to cycle through all the usual big titles for the hundredth time over the course of several years.

 

[Sithborg]

We got Direct sign. Keeping expectations loooowwww.

 

[KillerMcQueen]

I hope we get release dates for the Switch versions of Luigi's Mansion 2 and Thousand Year Door, and some more classic games announced for their Switch Online apps.

We got Direct sign. Keeping expectations loooowwww.

"Partner Showcase"
So we should expect those Xbox games like Hi-Fi Rush.

 

[Sithborg]

Probably. Essentially, nothing third party, though there may be some Nintendo stuff in there, like another Nintendo themed Warriors games. I'd be down for another Hyrule Warriors.

 

[Sithborg]

Not a whole lot there for me. Dear god, Suika game DLC. Multiplayer seems dangerous to relationships.

And not gonna lie, seeing Snake Rattle n'Roll got me unreasonbly excited. One of my enjoyed NES games back in the day.

 

[KillerMcQueen]

The highlight for me is definitely the classic Battlefront port, loved those games and am extremely happy to see them coming back. The Rareware logo got my hopes up for a moment there, was hoping for DK64, Banjo Tooie, or Perfect Dark, hopefully we get those eventually.

 

[Gee]

So Pentiment and Grounded confirmed!

That Killer Instinct SNES box art hits my nostalgia.

 

[GREEN =w= DAY]

Blast Corps is such an underrated game. Nice to see it make its way to Switch

 

[Lily Adler]

There's hopeful speculation that this new Xbox initiative will lead Banjo and Kazooie back to Nintendo.

 

[Sithborg]

God, I had forgotten how... touchy the controls for Snake Rattle n Roll were.
