Getting Mario Kart and Odyssey. /blogfaqs

Get me one too.

I plan to do this as well. I want Sonic Mania and a few other games in addition to those.

Mario + Rabbids is supposed to be on sale for $30 starting tomorrow at Best Buy. I've just been renting and borrowing games since I bought my Switch, but that will probably be the first one I buy.

Recommend Xenoblade 2 if you like RPGs and the art style doesn't turn you off.

Nice! I wanna play this as well. This is a big deal because I've felt ripped off by Nintendo a lot in the past, so this is like the last chance.

Is the option to buy digitally available yet? Like, can I buy Odyssey through the Switch? Or do I need to get it at the store? Leaving soon.

Yes you can buy digitally

Yeah, you can buy digitally. I'd recommend getting a microSD card for storage though if you go that route, as the Switch's internal memory is still tiny.

Will do. Thanks guys.

Ok, I got MK8 and Odyssey and have been playing them both since 4pm. I'm loving it so far. Even got to introduce my 9 year old niece to Mario Kart for the first time. She picked it up pretty fast. Dang kids.

I'm wondering if you guys have any game suggestions for me. I'm already fine with BotW and I'll likely be getting Mario + Rabbids on sale. Any good RPGs you'd recommend? I saw two in the e-shop that sounded good, but that was hours ago and I forget their names. I appreciate any and all suggestions. I haven't been this excited about a Nintendo product since the Wii.

Pick up Disgaea 5, best game on the Switch

for RPGs I would personally reccomend Romancing SaGa 2, though I hear the Switch version has input lag problems

Darkest Dungeon if you're ok with difficulty permanent death and eldritch monsters

I guess I'm too late, but I was going to say you can get Super Mario Odyssey at a discount if you were to order it through Google Express. It's discounted to $48.66 and there is a 30% off coupon code.

I ordered it yesterday for a total of $39.51

Dang. Well, it was worth the extra I paid to be able to play it as soon as I got home.

Was thinking about this. Those games always looked fun to me.

I am ok with all of those things.

This is one of the two I was interested in earlier. Thank you.

Xenoblade 2 is a pretty stacked game. I got my Switch in January and I haven't even started Breath of the Wild or Odyssey yet.

I'm on the fence about this one, but leaning towards a yes.

There's tons of shit to do and tons of ways to become overpowered. I'm about 200 hours in and still have a shitload I haven't gotten around to doing yet

Funny thing is the thing that attracts me to it might end up killing it for me. I love games with so much depth, but I'm also trying to be more active for health reasons. So a game I'd enjoy for a few hundred hours might hurt me in the long run. I'll prolly still get it though. Lol.

How big are your hands? Some adults, with large hands, have said they get hand cramps with the joycons. Might need to look at the Pro controller as well.

That's why I got the Switch version instead of getting a PS4. Can play it while walking the dog or being on the treadmill :)

Yeah, I'm definitely getting the pro controller, but it wasn't too bad with the wrist connecter things playing MK.

Fire Emblem Warriors and Puyo Puyo Tetris are my most played Switch games.

FEW is a great Musou game and an even greater Warriors games thanks to all the extra tactics you can do
