Also, Super Bomberman R is definitely not displayed in 1080p and runs at 30fps. It's not a taxing game visually, so what's its excuse for mediocre performance? Isn't this a port of an older Bomberman game? I can't get over that price though, it's as bad as Nintendo with 1,2 Switch.

any source for those?

Digital Foundry seem to be pretty stoked about Mario Kart and Splatoon 2

As he says, this is all based on video capture, no hands on have been possible.
So keep it in mind with the Bomberman judgement.

Well, here's the Pocket Lint opinion on Super Bomberman R, which is based on a hands-on demo.

Missed a couple of things, added farming simulator and syberia 3. Cos thats what we're buying the switch for.

I think I might import Binding of Isaac, it's a launch title in the US.

I assumed it was digital here at launch

I think it might be, I'd still like a physical copy though.

MilesMorales1 · 22-01-2017 11:06am

I can just imagine it not being a launch title here, even digitally.

sligeach · 22-01-2017 12:41pm

If you want a physical copy of The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ on Switch then let them know.

Already have!

MilesMorales1 · 22-01-2017 9:44pm

Not that bad then.

CiDeRmAn · 22-01-2017 10:32pm

And there's Pokémon!

Yeah I noticed that! Is this official or another "leak" which were sooo reliable prior to Switch's unveiling? Hope it's true!

Hopefully! That image looks photoshopped-the "Pokémon" logo is off centre, looks like its super-imposed!
I'll keep my fingers crossed though!

Well its not official, its made by someone on reddit I think. But you know, Pokemon will obviously be coming to Switch, thats why they've put it in the undated section.

MilesMorales1 · 22-01-2017 10:59pm

Specifically, in a listing on GameStop’s site, which has since been taken down, the company had this to say about the Nintendo Switch’s initial game library:

Nintendo Switch games will include new title offerings from Mario, Splatoon, Zelda, the NBA and more! You will even be able to play Skyrim on the go, or Pokémon at home with the Nintendo Switch. The unit will also include a number of handy, interchangeable Nintendo Switch accessories.

So in addition to Zelda: Breath of the Wild it sounds like you will be able to play Splatoon, Mario and Pokémon on the Nintendo Switch, not to mention Skyrim and NBA as well.

angryIreGamer · 23-01-2017 12:17pm

im looking forward to skyrim then nba, theyre the 2 pinned on games ill be getting second half of the year. Gives me loads of time with Bomberman, BotW and Mario Kart between now and then.

Who knows, this might even be the time i beat skyrim.

CiDeRmAn · 23-01-2017 12:37pm

I have Skyrim but never got around to playing it, my son has and assures me it's fantastic.
Unfortunately, I can't find the time to invest, while he can sit on his behind all weekend and play it.
But, an on the go version will suit me fine, so can't wait.
It was the same with Ocarina of Time, it took the 3DS version to give me the time to finish it, while the N64, GC and VC versions all sat, in various states of unfinished-ness.

Star Lord · 23-01-2017 4:00pm

To be honest, never had any interest in Skyrim, so it holds no draw for me. Binding of Isaac, Bomberman, BOTW and possibly Snipperclips are the games I'll be going for first.

Star Lord · 23-01-2017 4:26pm

I am Setsuna is now a release game:

Pokémon Co. CEO confirmed the then NX would get a Pokémon game.

This means Pokémon snap, ranger, battle arena, pokken. Who knows?

People confuse Pokémon game with Pokémon red, diamond etc.

Then there's the rumour. Pokémon sun and moon gets a third version as Pokémon stars on the switch by Christmas. That part is only a rumour.

Also, GameStop went with it. They never said "a Pokémon RPG" they said "play Pokémon at home". You could do that with an N64 if you owned Pokémon Stadium.

MilesMorales1 · 23-01-2017 7:46pm

6 launch games? Since shovel knight seems to be April rather than March here.

MilesMorales1 · 23-01-2017 10:09pm

Lego Worlds confirmed for Switch.

Think I'll be getting this.

Ah nuts, it's a digital release. I've a massive aversion to digital titles. Why couldn't they release a cardboard edition?

Xenji · 24-01-2017 1:19am

It was the same with the PS4 release last year outside of Japan, to be honest it is a game with good ideas but with poor execution and well regarded aesthetics , the price will be interesting as it is around E40 on the PS4 and Steam.

Banjo · 24-01-2017 11:03am

Bomberman's price is headed in the right direction :
http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/super-bomberman-r-nintendo-switch-shopto-42-84-2605673
(Shopto have it on PreOrder for £42.84)

MilesMorales1 · 24-01-2017 11:14am

That'd still too high for me. Not that there isn't £42's worth of content in there, I have no idea, just that it wouldn't be worth it for me.
