Nintendo SWITCH (OLED Model) Information II - Fastest Second Console Thread of All Time

[Serra]

I've been craving to play Crystalis for a few months now. Hoorah!

[Roranora]

I want a second OEM dock and AC adapter.
I want two NSO SNES controllers.
/wishlist

[Ratatapa]

All I want is button remap

[Corrderio]

I know one of y'all got an uncle that works at Nintendo. Somebody tell that uncle they need to make a new Kirby's Dream Course. That game was crack.

This.

Also on that note I wish 2D collect-a-thons like Great Cave Offense in KSS were more of a thing. That was easily the best game mode.

[6souls]

Star Fox 2? That takes away the selling point of SNES Classic.

[Tyrath]

Anyone who wanted SNES Classic pretty much has it by now.

[Corrderio]

I could never find them when I had the money

[Deathbringer]

BoF 2, Kirby All Stars and Crystalis?? Fuck those are strong nostalgias....

TIME TO GET A SWITCH(long overdue)

In a new Indie World video, Nintendo, accompanied by independent developers from around the world, previewed an extensive variety of indie games coming to the Nintendo Switch system in 2020. They also surprised fans with a pair of games that will be launching later today. The diverse lineup of games highlighted in the video includes Axiom Verge 2, the sequel to the critically acclaimed Axiom Verge; Sports Story, from the creators of the popular Nintendo Switch exclusive Golf Story; and retro-inspired beat-’em-up Streets of Rage 4. Launching today, The Talos Principle: Deluxe Edition and Dauntless round out 2019’s strong lineup of indie content for Nintendo Switch.

“As we close out another year full of amazing indie game releases for Nintendo Switch, this new Indie World video offers a glimpse of what’s to come as we kick off 2020,” said Kirk Scott, Nintendo of America’s Indie Partner Manager of Publisher and Developer Relations. “We continue to be humbled by the innovative games our indie partners are creating around the world. You can bet our support for them will continue going strong into next year and beyond.”

There will be plenty of braised chicken lying around on plates and bad guys to beat down when Streets of Rage 4 comes to Nintendo Switch in the first half of 2020.

• Gleamlight from D3Publisher: Using a stained-glass motif, this unique game puts players in the role of a sword (that’s right: a sword) in a terrifying, sad, but warm story drawn in a beautiful glassy world. From the developers of Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night comes Gleamlight, launching for Nintendo Switch in early 2020.

• SkateBIRD from Glass Bottom Games: Look at these cute little birds shred! Whether they’re grinding on bendy straws, kickflipping over staplers or carving lines through a park held together by sticky tape, skate birds always try their best – and look adorable doing it.

SuperMash will shake things up on Nintendo Switch in May 2020.

• Sail Forth from David Evans: There’s nothing quite like a high-seas adventure combining classic naval action with exploration.

Sail Forth docks on Nintendo Switch in 2020.

• Murder by Numbers from Mediatonic: From TV studios to glitzy award shows, players must uncover a tangled web of conspiracy, deception and, of course, murder, as they piece together the truth one pixel at a time. Featuring music from Masakazu Sugimori, the composer behind Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney and Viewtiful Joe, Murder by Numbers launches first as a timed exclusive on Nintendo Switch in early 2020.

• Liberated from Atomic Wolf: Liberated blends the art of cyberpunk, hand-drawn graphic novels with interactivity and action to create a seamless experience.

Liberated launches first as a timed exclusive on Nintendo Switch in 2020.

• Boyfriend Dungeon from Kitfox Games: In this dating sim-dungeon crawler mashup, players forge precious memories with many different loves, and then use their individual combat styles to clear out monsters and uncover the dungeon’s secrets. Boyfriend Dungeon wants to be more than friends with Nintendo Switch in 2020.

• Dreamscaper from Afterburner Studios: Sometimes the only way to face a tough subject is head on... even if that means battling a nightmarish depression living inside a young woman’s subconscious.

• Oddworld: Stranger’s Wrath from Oddworld Inhabitants: In this classic action-adventure game, players will wield Stranger’s unusual crossbow that fires off rounds of literally live ammo – from rodents to bugs.

Not gonna lie, the genre-smashup game and Sports Story have me excited

[Tokitoki]

Need some help from the Switch bros.

Brother bought a Switch on Black Friday, the Mario Kart 8 bundle, and I was thinking of getting him a game for Christmas. He's got BOTW, Smash, Mario Kart. He's a fan of action/adventure games, platformers, RPGs; not so much shooters, puzzle games, sims/builders, etc. He'd probably get some use out of multiplayer games as well, but I wouldn't go with Mario Party.

I was thinking maybe DQXI, Link's Awakening, or Octopath. Anyone have any recommendations that maybe I wouldn't have heard of if I don't follow switch news?

[Ratatapa]

Octo easily for xenoblsde 2

[Kaslo]

If he hasn't played DQ11, its one of--if not the--best DQ games.

[Corrderio]

Ys VIII is a good ARPG/Adventure game if they haven't played the PS4 version. And yeah stay the hell away from Super Mario Party.

Other than that I'll side with Rata on Octopath Traveler. I'm a bit mixed about Xenoblade Chronicles 2 though.

[Guitarman]

DQ11 was incredibly fun. Get that.

[Tyrath]

DQ11 and Xeno 2 definitely.
