Diablo 1 was the first game I ever played on the internet. For whatever reason I haven't tried the series since. I might have to pick this one up.

With a controller something is lost in this game, ot kind of feels like it plays itself and you are just refreshing CD's. Don't get me wrong, it's still fantastic for some reason and is a carbon copy of the PC version with great porting decisions and mapping for the controller but whatever agency K&M brings to the table is lost. Didn't stop me from dropping 40 or 50 hours into it on ps4 but expect more of a laid back diablo regardless of the system however way more laid back with a controller. Probably as fantastic a game I can think of for Switch, I just don't know if it"ll have staying power with those who play in fifteen minute chunks, it'll grab them but I'd reckon the drop off will be massive, very doubtful many switch on the go users will make it past act 1.

Hmmm.  Wonder if it will have touch screen enabled?  Touch screen and mouse are fairly equivalent.  I agree that often games that work well with a mouse don't really translate that well to a console controller.
