I love turn-based strategy (Fire Emblem, XCOM, Final Fantasy Tactics, etc). Same. I have it pre ordered. I didn't discover Fire Emblem until a few years ago, but I really enjoy the Strategy game with RPG elements style. I'm really looking forward to it. I really like what I've seen on it so far, as far as people who have played the game. I see myself dumping hundreds of hours into it, as well.

JBURGE Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 New Switch model just announced, the base model with improved battery life by ~2 hours. Likely new chip inside, so this will likely have slightly improved performance. Hopefully this drops the price of the current base model!

Unlikely, this is nintendo's new handheld to replace the 3DS and is likely going to be their reason to keep the switch at it's current pricepoint. (mostly because this is the cheapest console available now) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything else seems to be the same, unless I'm mistaken. Also, the Switch Lite is going to be $200 and the base model Switch is $300. I suppose they could drop the base model to maybe $250. But I think eventually they might just discontinue to base model and replace it with this newer model for $300. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, what I mean is how can they justify selling the original with 2.5-6.5 hours battery life for the same price as the new one that has 4.5-9.5 or whatever the numbers were. You would think they would drop the price until they were sold out I would hope we see something like the 3 models selling like this..... 1. New, Handheld mode only, $200 2. Original base, $250 (reduced $50 until out of stock) 3. Upgraded Original, $300 Edited July 17, 2019 by JBURGE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Dan Salvato made a brutal Mario maker level that I can’t beat. He did “P is for pain.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not a fan of the one I posted because the more I watch, the more I realize nobody can do it unless you’re aware of how to abuse mechanics in Mario maker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It comes out tonight/tomorrow. The community is weird as hell, so I just avoid it, but the games are great. This looks like a huge step up for them even. It's been garnering GOTY hype.

MikeT14 Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 911 Emergency was on sale for like $3 so I have been playing that recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayRaider Posted July 25, 2019 Share Posted July 25, 2019 The new Switch Lite is perfect for kids and also people who will never play on the TV. Also they are releasing the original Switch with triple the battery life. Triple!! Same price. I think both are due out in September.

I’m gonna get my nephew the Switch Lite and then debating either getting the Switch with extra battery for 300 or saving 50 bucks. Probably will opt for the extra battery version.

showtime Posted July 26, 2019 Share Posted July 26, 2019 @jyod21 How's the game? Does it actually have a true tutorial part for someone who is brand new to the game or does it assume you already know how to play since this is like the 20th installment of the game?

I’ve really enjoyed it, so far. It’s really deep. I think it’s a good jumping in point for someone who hasn’t played the games. There will be a little learning curve, but it’s not too much to handle. It feels a little intimidating, at first, but it pretty much walks you through it, and once it starts to click, you’re good to go. Fire Emblem games are almost all standalone games, so you don’t need to have played any of the others to understand the lore or anything. It’s kind of like Persona meets Fire Emblem. If you’re on the fence about it, I would go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
