Shovel knight. Some of you probably know it because it's close to a 10/10 game out of all user review on steam. I am not a massive retro action game fan but this game is super fun. Challenging but not cheap tricks to artificial boost the difficulty. Each map feels very refreshing and the story is actually not bad. Highly recommend for switch even over steam version The only downside I can think of is the small buttons on switch. And if you have rage issue, I don't recommend you playing on handheld mode :p | ||

If the Switch ends up being solely a Steam-indies + Nintendo exclusives box, that would already be great :D. | ||

If the Switch ends up being solely a Steam-indies + Nintendo exclusives box, that would already be great :D. It does run at 60 FPS in handheld mode, and it's a glorious experience. I loved the based game, but the Spectre Knight campaign is on a whole other level. It's absolutely incredible. Honestly, it's difficult to describe, but I think you could finish the game in 25 minutes in a speed run without major skips just because the game is so skill based. I finished the campaign three times, and I think it's a better game than Zelda. | ||

(I'm not usually a FPS freak, but I loved playing MK on my Wii U mainly because it was such a smooth experience). | ||

I've read about every number being reported. (I'm not usually a FPS freak, but I loved playing MK on my Wii U mainly because it was such a smooth experience). They said 60fps for MK8, 720 on handheld, 1080 on docked. | ||

I expected it to be a bit of a rough launch but it's a bit worse than I thought at this point. | ||

A month to re supply a product when pre-orders went immediately is dropping the ball in my book. | ||

There is a maximum amount of products they can ship a day without building more plants/lines at both suppliers and final assembly. So they have a few choices: Build up massive stock (binding capital) to handle release and a quick re-stock regardless of volume sold, then sit on them for half a year if release sells badly. Build extra of whatever is the problem with the least capacity and the next and the next and the next until they can build them fast. (Extremely expensive for a short peak in numbers.) Build a stock they think will be enough according to projections, binding the least capital while still having a solid launch. If they sell out it is good publicity and the risk of stock sitting is less. So doing a bit under projections might even be good. | ||
