Well I'll probably get it around the holidays, so my first game will be Mario, as is tradition for me.

Followed by Splatoon 2 and Zelda



The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of the Wild
Super Mario Odyssey
Xenoblade Chronicles 2
The Binding Of Isaac: Afterbirth+
Yooka-Laylee
Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove
Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers



- Zelda BOTW
- Mario Odysee
- Bomberman (probably)
- Disgaea 5
- Splatoon 2
- Xenoblade 2 (HELL YEAH)
- Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
- I am Setsuna
- Rime (Maybe)
- Skyrim (Only if they add motion controls to the weapons and Stuff I grab. I want one Joy-con for each hand. Otherwise I won't bother with it)
- Minecraft (If they do something exclusive for the Switch)

- Open for more games.



Intel Core i7 8700K | 32 GB DDR 4 PC 3200 | ROG STRIX Z370-F Gaming | RTX 3090 FE| Crappy Monitor| HTC Vive Pro :3

Zelda for me. Other than that, I guess we'll have to wait and see what's released. Would love to play Xenoblade this year, but who knows?



Around the Network

Well, if all come out in 2017 as said, I plan on getting:
Zelda Breath of the Wild
Mario Lost Odyssey
Xenoblade 2

Games I'll probably get as more time killing fun short mini/portable style games.
Bomberman R
Sonic Mania

Keeping an eye on:
Fire Emblem Warriors (loved Hyrule Warriors, though want mainline FE game)
Octopussy (whatever that Square RPG in style of Bravely Default was called)
Shin Megami Tensei (whatever 25th anniversary thing they got going on)

Games I would like to try, but living alone and not being a huge online player I'll probably hold off on getting.
Arms
Mario Kart 8 (own on Wii U)
Slatoon 2



Firstly, welcome back o/

Disgaea 5
Dragonball Xenoverse 2
Dragon Quest 11
Fast RMX
Fire Emblem Warriors
Zelda BotW
Mario Kart 8
Splatoon 2
Super Bomberman R
Super Mario Odyssey
Xenoblade Chronicles 2
Yooka Laylee

Of course not all of those may make 2017 in the west and then theres the chance of unannounced 2017 games... also I may have just forgot some exist

Since I am getting Zelda on Wii U, probably skyrim and Mario.

Ignore the higher resolution and the smoother fps and stuttering and all that.

One should get the Switch version for the sole fact of loading times. Don't know how much loading will be needed. Guessing later in game when you get the inevitable teleporting method you will start having loads when doing that.

But saw video comparing the two and it was like a 13 second load time for Switch, compared to 29 seconds for Wii U.

If it has anywhere near the load instances as FF15 had, it's worth upgrading early for load times. FF15, I could go an dmake a sandwitch each time I loaded it felt like.



I'll go with the obvious Mario and Zelda!

Also:
Ultra SF2
(for some very strange reason, i also want ) DQWarriors 1+2
Yooka Laylee
Shovel Kinght
Arcade Archives (both versions, if possible)
Rime



I'm getting Zelda and Bomberman R at launch. Snipperclips later.

It doesn't really make sense talking about anything else. I'm getting pretty much every major release, unless Splatoon 2 pulls the same anemic launch content and scheduled map cycle BS as the original.
