Poll of the Day > I think I might buy myself a switch today. What games should I get?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I already have botw on wiiu. Gonna get odessesy, obviously.

What are some good multiplayer games? I already have mario kart 8 on wiiu and I do t really wanna buy it again.

just buy it but hold off

Outside of the games you mentioned, there really isn't anything amazing yet (those 2 are amazing from what I've seen/looked at reviews for)

Maybe fire emblem warriors if you're into button mashers but it can get repetitive

What do you mean? Buy it but only but mario?

I was also considering getting bomberman, but meh

Zelda
Mario
Xenoblade 2
Mario x Rabbids
Blaster master zero
Golf Story
Stardew valley
Isaac afterbirth+
Enter the gungeon
Cave Story+
And the octopath traveler demo

Bomberman is a definite get. I am playing through Xenoblade Chronicles 2 currently, but I would only suggest it if you are a fan of complicated JRPGs.

Splatoon 2 would be fun, but I think that is online only.

Thank you for the list. I'm looking more for just exclusives though. I have most of those already on pc.

Totally forgot about splatoon. I'll actually probably get that. I heard bomberman had button input lag issues, was that fixed?

And should I just go digital for the switch? Kinda seems like the right thing to do lol. I only had one physical wii u game.

Wish I could help. Personally waiting on Smash Bros. or Animal Crossing. Already have Zelda on the Wii U, surprisingly hated Odyssey that I borrowed from a friend, and a lot of their games they have are on other platforms and have already been out for years.

This, plus Crawl and Gorogoa

I have crawl on pc, and it's freaking amazing. Love that game.

I'll probably get mario and maybe bomberman. We shall see

Bayonetta 3 when it comes out
---

Crawl is so good! Especially with friends. It has couch co-op on Switch.

Gorogoa might be on PC I think. If you like puzzle games its a no-brained.

Depends how many games you anticipate getting. I have Odyssey digital and it eats up quite a bit of space. Roughly estimating I would say you would only be able to fit 10 digital games on the switch at most without expanding the memory. And unlike the Wii U, you are only limited to a microSD card. You can't plug a hard drive into it as far as I know.

Even so, the physical games are small so they aren't as much of a problem as you might think. But considering all you get is a game box and cartridge nowadays it seems kind of pointless to go physical on a portable system.

dude, good call. i'm loving my switch!

For me, my switch would probably be used in handheld mode for most of the time. I'm thinking digital so that it is easier to switch games.

I'd suggest selling your Wii U Mario Kart and getting the Switch version used if you can. Might be able to get away only paying 10-15 bucks on the swap that way, the Switch battle mode versions are definitely worth it.
---

With what you have already, you might want to hold off. Mario isn't remotely good enough to justify it on its own.

I have the digital version that was bundled with the wiiu, otherwise I probably would.

How good of an idea that is is definitely going to depend on whether or not you play any local multiplayer with more than two people, since you'll need to get more controllers to play multiplayer on the Switch.

tc did you get the switch yet? how much was it? I hear they're not that hard to find compared to how it was when it first came out. Nintendo must be very happy with how they're selling. Now if only nintendo could bring back the nes classic
---

I mean, it's not like the list of Switch games that are out right now is extensive.

What kind of suggestions are you exactly looking for?

If you want a Warriors game with Fire Emblem characters there is Fire Emblem Warriors.

If you want a JRPG there is Xenoblade Chronicles 2.

Supposedly Nintendo will re-release the NES Classic in the summer of 2018:

I bought one. I got the red and blue neon controllers.

The switch is a lot smaller than I expected. I was thinking it was going to be larger. It's only a little bit smaller than my galaxy note lol

Why would you purchase a system with only one game you're interested in? Especially knowing Nintendo's track record of not having any games outside of Mario
---

how much was it 299?

they will have games i will like in the future. Plus, mario is my favorite video game franchise. i kinda just want to play it now while I have the next two weeks off.

yeah, 299

are you getting breath of the wild for the switch? i think that's easily the biggest game on switch. Do you have a ps4?
---

I already have botw on the wiiu, so no

And yeah, I have a ps4 along with a wii u, 3ds, and a pc

you could still get botw again if you really loved the game, i got mgsv 2 times, once on ps3 and again on ps4
---

Yeah, maybe in the future after a price drop or something. It was a great game but I'd rather buy new games than repurchase games I beat like 6 months ago

*cough*

I'm not sure how much I have left in it, but I'm definitely getting the impression that Xenoblade 2 is bigger. I'm pushing 120 hours there already, which is more than I put into BotW before drifting away from it. Part of that is definitely because I've been distracted and doing random other interesting stuff instead of advancing the story, but that describes pretty much the entirety of BotW, so...

cool, definitely enjoy it. I'll grab one once we get closer to the SMT V Release date as that alone is worth a switch for me

Idk why I didn't finish that sentence but it should've been hold off on other games. I think those two you mentioned are more than enough to keep you occupied (Well, more like Odyssey since you have Botw on wii u already)
