if theyre taking the Wii U games they might as well make the Mario Galaxy games available for the Switch as well.

And they should work on a follow up for Odyssey

A new, full-fledged Star Fox is long overdue, IMO

The should do a "Mario All-Stars" similar to what they did back on SNES. Have it include Super Mario 64, both Galaxy games, and 3D World

Same here, well over 100 hours I think. The Switch doesn't track that, does it? I'd be curious to know because I binged that game hard last spring. I had a few 10-hour-straight gaming sessions playing that I think.

[kelchlsm]

It does track.

Not to the very minute I don't think but itll tell you you played for 40, 50, 80 etc hours

[BotheLaneFan]

New Pokémon to be announced tomorrow. Yay!

I got a Switch on Friday and played Odyssey all weekend. Game is awesome.

[Beefsteak1138]

Odyssey is so good.

Just got to 250 power moons and unlocked the dark side of the moon.

I'm over 200 hours into BoTW and only have a few more quests to complete before I hit Ganon.

I'll be starting Odyssey next.

Such an impressive game. I really enjoyed it and will start it back up after summer. Looking forward to Yoshi's Crafted World.

Anyone have Skyrim on the Switch. How is the playability?

Ive had it on PS3 and XB1, but would like it on a portable platform if it handles it welll

I started this two weeks ago and really enjoy it.

I never played it beforehand.

How are the graphics when un-docked? Any lag issues?

It's an absolutely great game, and you can sink hundreds of hours into it. I'm looking for a game that I can play for a long while without "beating" for the switch. I loved Mario Odyssey, and Mario Bros. Deluxe was a nice/fun side scroller, but I beat both fairly quickly and feel like I haven't used my switch in a while. If I had a longer-play game, like Skyrim (or as many have suggested, BotW), I feel like I'd be getting more use out of the system.

I put well over 100 hours on BOTW. If you have a switch that is a game you need to get.

No issues with lag or really anything. I've only played un-docked for three hours or so and it was great (I probably have 40 hours in total).

My only complaint about the game is the darkness levels constantly forcing me to cast a spell to brighten things up, this isn't a switch issue as it's always been like this (even back to Morrowind). Adjusting the brightness on the monitor when it's docked helps a little.

I would recommend Skyrim before BoTW. Basically every game since BoTW has left me wanting more BoTW based controls. I have over 220 hours into BoTW and can see Skyrim being double that based on the immense content and loads of free play between quests working to master the variety of skills.

[jmc419]

I'm still logging time in Skyrim. It's a great game on the switch.

The Mario Maker 2 direct was fucking sweet. Can't wait to pick that up.

[scrock25]

So my wife is leaving the company she's worked at for the past 17 years on Thursday. Today the director, assistant director, and HR lady took her out to lunch at an area restaurant connected to a mall. He bought her (read: my 8 year old) Team Sonic Racing as her parting gift

So reviews on Mario Maker 2?

I'm trying to decide between maker 2 and Breath of the Wild

I've been wanting to jump into Breath of the Wild, but having never played any Zelda games after NES, I'm just slightly hesitant.

Weather is supposed to be shit this weekend, maybe I'll dive into it tomorrow

Ive never played a Zelda game ever until BotW

Be patient with it, at times it can get to be overwhelming when you first start, but then youll reach an epiphany that it quite possibly is the greatest game ever

Perfect time to start playing it too with the sequel in the works

Mario Maker 2 good if you have zero desire to create levels?

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 arriving today.....waiting on reviews for Fire Emblem next week. Love Fire Emblem but new one seems to abandon the formula that I love about it.

Mario Maker 2 is definitely worth it -- I haven't made any levels yet and I don't know when I will, if ever. It includes over 100 levels in the "Story Mode" -- good enough to be its own game -- on top of endless Mario levels online. I would say, however, if you don't have an online subscription, it's not worth it. There's an option to get it bundled with a 12 Month online subscription.

So when I get divorced because I'm balls deep into BotW, I'm going to blame y'all



This game is wonderful

Glad you're enjoying it! It really has become my favorite game of all time.

What's the online subscription have to do with the 100 levels in story mode? Trying to decide if worth it and currently do not have online and not certain I plan on it. Can you elaborate a bit more?
