    It's very possible that they may release in Ireland and other regions in the near future. They're priced at €250 for the Lite and €350 for the original Switch.

    It's the mobile version too so pretty bad. Doesn't feel like you have any input. No matter who i picked or what tactics/formation it made no difference.
    It's the touch version. Far more comprehensive than the mobile version though still way short of the full version.

    64GB NINTENDO SWITCH GAME CARDS COULD BE COMING IN 2020

    https://nintendosoup.com/64gb-nintendo-switch-game-cards-could-be-coming-in-2020/

    I'll believe it when I see it. As far as I'm aware, only 2 games have used the 32GB cartridge, one in Japan only at launch, Dragon Quest Heroes 1&2. And The Witcher 3, which I feel was a goodwill publicity stunt on Nintendo's part, I wouldn't be surprised if they gave a good deal to CD PROJEKT for the 32GB cartridges, the first Western game to use it after nearly 2 and a half years of the Switch being on the market.

    Edit: I'm not sure if an Asia only release of a Final Fantasy also used a 32GB cartridge, it's ringing a bell, I'll have to check.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,015 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    Ya, Final Fantasy X/X-2 in Asia was on a 32GB cartridge. Europe and America got a 16GB cartridge, one game on it and a download code for the other.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,529 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    A bunch of new SKUs have just been added to Gamestop's internal database. The last time this happened, there was a Nintendo Direct a few weeks later.

    Emily Rogers Claims There Are At Least Two More Unannounced WiiU Ports Coming To Switch

    https://nintendosoup.com/emily-rogers-claims-there-are-at-least-two-unannounced-wiiu-ports-coming-to-switch/amp/?__twitter_impression=true

    Windwaker and Super Mario World please.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,015 ✭✭✭✭sligeach


    In other news, it was revealed that the sky is blue and Miley Errors says there's at least 3 more unannounced Wii U ports coming to Switch. :P

    There's still plenty of candidates left, Twilight Princess, Pikmin 3, Yoshi's Woolly World, Paper Mario: Colour Splash, and more besides.

    I cannot understand how there is not a Wind Waker and Twilight Princess release already.

    It surely wouldn’t be a big ask to upscale the 3DS games either. They should aim to make the Switch the ultimate Nintendo console. All versions of all major franchises.

    I am very confident Xenoblade Chronicles X is coming sooner or later. Super Mario World may be a good guess as they've released Mario Maker 2, Odyssey & SMBU already.
    The 2 HD Zelda remakes should be no brainers if Breath of the Wild 2 is not coming this year, I'm kinda surprised they arent out already.

    I think monolith ruled out porting xenoblade x bc it was too big iirc, scratch that. Its because it will be too much resources to redo

    I would need substantial improvements on the Wii U games before I bite, mainly as I still need to justify that Wii u purchase, I have some of these games and also I can just get them cheaper right now on Wii u.

    Also, I'd like to see some 3ds ports/upgrades since the 3ds screen and controller is just too small for me. :) And there is fantastic software on that system.

    And wasn't there some talk of Mario Sunshine getting ported ...

    What about Breath of the Wild... Oh wait....

    Star Fox Zero would need a loooot of work to make sense on the Switch. Would like to see it happen though, with a more traditional control scheme.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,626 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    I imagine the control system might have had a better traditional option but was yanked before release.
    They'd have to do a spot of rejigging, but it would be worth it.
    The game, controls aside, is pretty sound and a great return to the anthropomorphic sci-fi universe.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 51,782 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    The one I want to see is Pikmin 3 and it's the only one I care about other than Mario 3D World. Pikmin 3 is criminally underrated and it would be great for it to get the recognition it deserves.

    Star Fox Zero was kind of garbage so don't mind if that stays put.

    Mario 3D World did make use of the touch screen and second screen so I can see that one maybe being an issue.

    They can use an on screen cursor a la Captain toad ..
    Hopefully it's hidden when not needed and can be hidden by the user when they are sick of looking at it.
