Im getting Origami King, but its pretty much just Color Splash 2. The circle part of the battles with a timer does not look very fun. Shame, but its ok I guess.

Wasting WayForwards talent on that Bakugan game is just insulting. What a disappointment.



Around the Network

3rd Parties: For Sony and Microsoft, we give big budget AAA game with big advertising budget.
Nintendo: What do we get?
3rd Parties: BAKUGAN BRAWL, IT'S A BIG BRAWL



The world of The Origami King looks really good and the humor and writing seem to be on point, but the fact that the only reward for battles are coins and the confetti (which is used to get more coins...) and that all the party members (excepting Olivia) are temporary and don't take part in battle really turn me off from the game  (also, the battles look way too drawn out).



In a bizarre twist on the usual scenario, Crysis Remastered will launch first on Switch, on the 23rd, while being delayed to a later date on other platforms.

Third parties don't give a fuck about Nintendo even with the Switch's success. -_-

Well, they MOSTLY don't give a fuck about Nintendo, I guess.

Yeah it is a shame that even with Switch's success third parties are mostly failing to take advantage of its fast-growing audience, but at least there are a few that treat it semi-decently.

It's gotten better as well; third party support this year and in 2019 are notably better than back in Switch's first year.

*When you don't pay for timed exclusivity but get it anyway 😎

Who would've thought it; Crysis Remastered, play it first on Nintendo Switch haha

Still could be improved. A lot. I mean actual third party games people would want on the Switch, not some cheap toy tie in game.

Yeah it could definitely be a lot better. There's still been some worthwhile ones though, like Doom 2016, Witcher 3, Wolfenstein II, Hellblade, etc.

I vote with my wallet and support the good ones.



Finished the Star Wolf missions in StarLink aaaand.. archived. I didn't have the patience for it anymore, the planet objectives are way too repetitive. Moved onto Catherine: Full Body. Loved the original, though the addition of Rin feels like it's messed up the pacing of the Catherine route, she just feels kind of.. there lol.

Apparently Samurai Shodown is another great conversion. It also has amazing box art on the Switch version. Hopefully picking it up soon myself.

I have sticks for Xbone, PS4 and PC, so I usually wouldn't think about fighting games on Switch, but I really wanna try it. See if it's worth buying a d-pad joycon to play it portably.

I still wish Killer Instinct was on Switch.

It's not beyond the realm of possibility that the series might eventually make its way over. We've seen Microsoft release Cuphead and Ori on the Switch after all.

It's like Microsoft doesn't really care where it's IPs go. That must be why Banjo and Kazooie got into Smash.

More I think that they recognize Switch isn't a direct competitor to Xbox and see it as an opportunity to broaden the reach of their IPs and make some extra dough.
