There always seems to be a caveat with these games. There's no cross play and the physical version doesn't come with a cartridge, just a download code. It could fit on a 16GB cartridge but no, they want more profit for themselves.

Looks like a new Wii Fit like product is coming, looks a mixture of fitness and party type. Very similar to a Pilates ring.

It's interesting they purposely show the physical movements without the actual 'game' knowing how weird they will look. Weird Nintendo is best Nintendo.

Sure everyone knew Nintendo were making a plastic circle thingy.

I hear it'll be called "Mii Hole" here in Ireland, which is bound to cause confusion.

Banjo

I've been trying to figure out how to spin Switch + hoop/hole/ring into comedy gold, but came up empty. that is class, sir!

Bit odd they didn't feel like showing whatever it is off at the Direct they had literally two days ago.

Mr E

Clever marketing. What Nintendo does best.

Actually pretty smart not too. How many Xbox or EA presentations have people groaned at when the segment on TV channels or Sims or such comes on? Keep the directs for games, leave the other outside stuff on their own, such as this and Labo.

Apparently, it did on portable, not on docked. I picked it up in the sale with coins I had but haven’t played it yet.

Got a chance to give the new Wolfenstein game a go on the Switch. What an absolute waste of development time. The gameplay seems as fun as it did in the previous two, but it just looks and runs appallingly. Looks like a PS2 game and runs at early PS1 frame rates.

Yeah it's nice that they're porting games like this to the Switch for people with no other system to play them on but I think pretty much everybody recognises that these games aren't made to be played on a Switch, same goes for The Witcher and recently announced Divinity: OS 2 I'd imagine.

Mr E

Puzzle Quest: The Legend Returns is coming out on September 19th.
Seems like a ton of new content has been added since I played on the DS, so I'm looking forward to diving in.
This could be a real time sink and is perfect for the Switch. The HD upgrade looks good.

Hopefully it's a premium title with no IAPs.

Think the second one was the iap-riddled one. That and Marvel Puzzle Quest.

Mr E

The Celeste free update is out now. I watched the first 10 minutes on YouTube over the weekend. Looks like it's B-Side/C-Side difficulty.

Xenji

Blasphemous is out today.

Mr E

Love the look of that game. €25 is a bit steep (this month in particular!), but I've added it to my watch list.

I wonder if they had pushed it to the end of the month, would they get more day 1 sales?

It's a good 18-20 hour game too, which is great for a game like this.

It's about €9 on the US shop at the moment if you haven't got it already (and might go on sale in EU on Thursday)

That's it alright, loved every moment of all the Souls games and Dead Cells so this is right up my street.

Only on 56% downloaded over 30 minutes later though..even have it on sleep mode. I always forget how horrific the download speeds are with this, was fully expected to be knee deep in death and mayhem at this point :eek:

Not something I expected would get a Switch release but it's listed in the platforms (albeit at a later date than XB1 and PS4).

Xenji

I assume they are ports of the mobile versions.
