Hoping that Xenoblade Chronicles and another game or two can intrigue me enough to make the leap. Metroid Prime 4 will for sure justify that $300 purchase, but it won't be coming out anytime soon, I'm thinking about picking up Fire Emblem Warriors next week, Sonic Forces looks great plus the luxury of playing it on the go, Mario Odyssee is just around the corner, and Bloodstained (new game from the maker of Castlevania) will be another fun game to play on the go. The Switch has plenty of quality games to look forward to in the coming months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buno67 Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I think tomorrow, I might pull the trigger and get one. I have been posting my xbox on a couple buy/sell/trade sites but have only got bites by spammers. There is a zelda bundle that I like that after tax would be like $385. Did some math with Gamestop, I would get the switch and Zelda for $386 after tax but could trade in my xbox. I wont get the best value, I think it would be around $90-95 with a system and an extra controller. At least I dont have to worry about haggling price and meeting up and exchanging item/money, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Switch has plenty of quality games to look forward to in the coming months. Well, everyone has their own opinions of what is "worth it". None of those games personally excite me. Not saying they wont be good....but outside of Zelda, nothing about the console "sells" it for me. The inferior specs and continued lack of 3rd party support really prevents me from buying this. The only thing that can win me over are quality exclusives, and while Im sure many will love Mario, Metroid and some others, the only 2 right now that Im interested in are Zelda and Xenoblade. So, Ill either wait for more titles that intrigue me, or Ill wait for a price drop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After trading in my xbox and etc towards it, I got a switch, Zelda, and a screen protector for $287.87. When I was at walmart I get a small nice like folding case for it that protects the screen for it. I have only had 45mins to play zelda so far but I like it.

Really is night and day, though the Joycons on the controller are fine too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now all my gaming with it will most likely be as undocked which I don’t have an issue with at the moment. I really enjoy it as a handheld. What are some games you guys recommend? I want to get Mario kart, mario Odyssey, at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Splatoon 2 is legit fun. MK8. Maybe elder scrolls if you never played it. Edited September 27, 2017 by titansNvolsR#1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbie_Hancock Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 I bought it a couple days ago and have Mario Kart. Will get Odyssey when it comes out. Up in the air about other games. Never played Zelda much but figure it's a must have? I hope they come out with super smash sometime soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right up there with Fallout 3. I'm not sure anything will top the landscape when you leave the vault in FO3 for me as far as a moment. That was my first fallout game Edited September 29, 2017 by JBURGE25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickButera Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I know outside of FourThreeMafia and myself this may not be a widely held belief.....but the Xenoblade Chronicles franchise is slowly becoming a fantastic franchise. Xenoblade Chronicles for the Wii was one of the best JRPG's I've played. Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (and the port of Xenoblade Chronicles) is one of the two primary reasons I got a Switch.

And to those who mentioned Mario + Rabbids, it is WAY more fun that it has any reason being. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
