So how is your country reviewing the new Nintendo fighting game ? Not a great start in France for the moment.

Google translate Version:
+: Surprisingly entertaining multiplayer, the simple combination of boxing with jumping and jumping arms makes you think of new and different, lovely characters and designs, fun mini-games, challenging even at medium difficulty.

-: Some beginners problems with the movement controls, few characters , a little boring alone, lack a bit more depth to really reach the top of the spring's great fighting game.

Gameblog liked it better. It's 7/10 there.

>shitty bing bing wahoo shovelware gets mediocre scores

Wow how surprising. This shit would be bargain bin tier on any other console, it's just that the Switch is so starved for games that it's like giving a bottle of water to a man dying of thirst in the desert: it may be putrid and smell like rotten eggs, but he's gonna drink it anyway and love it.

Do not forget, this game will get free updates like Splatoon with new stages and characters. That's why the content and reviews might seem poor at first sight.

That doesn't matter. If nintendo expects people to pay money for this game as it is right now, then it absolutely deserves to be judged for what it offers right now.

It's because the main problem of Splatoon was just the content. Every reviewer was saying that the gameplay was good.
Here it's different, because even though Nintendo will give us free updates, the gameplay is not flawless. Content is poor but it's not the only issue with the game.

That has to do with it running at the same resolution and framerate as each other, but the Switch version having faster load times and all of the dlc.

Disgaea Switch is sold with all DLC included. Not sure what the comparison is supposed to mean since it factually has more content.

>>379386296
It had nothing to do with the review.

>>379384082

>expecting any game that isn't COD, ME or a cinematic experience to get good scores

That's like expecting an Atelier game to do well. Reviewers trash them because the crafting is "too hard" and because cute girls scare them.
>>
>>379387229
>>379386645

Or, and follow me there, it's also because there are only 27 reviews for the Switch version instead of 43 like the PS4. Oh and because the reviewers aren't the same...

BOTW got a 97 because most people thought it was a fantastic game and one of the best open world games ever made. Even most game devs agree it's a 'game changer'.

>>379386936
Unfortunately, it's one of the most defensive and campy fighting game I've ever played. So not sure your joke is very pertinent.
>>
>>379387346
I only have one grip but plan on getting more joy-cons
>>
>>379387782
I played it, I agree that it was very good. My point is that it got a mysterious pass on some issues that would have racked up harsher penalties on other franchises or consoles. That disgusting dust/desaturation filter being one of them. It was bad to the point of being intrusive.

Games don't start at 100 and you knock them down a few points for each issue they have.
They start at like 80 and get knocked down for issues, and go up for things that evoke emotion / intrigue

What the hell are you on about. I own a switch and I agree with him.
>>
>>379387939
This is my legit biggest complaint of nintendo

Why don't they sell additional joycons with the grip. The grip is just a piece of plastic.
>>
>>379388283
So your implying they aren't?
Retarded.
>>
>>379387869
>person find multiplayer game boring in single player but finds it fun when playing multiplayer
Still got me hyped
>>
>>379388438
That's fair enough, but I stand by my point. I don't believe those problems would have been seen as made up for had this not been Zelda/Nintendo. And it's not like it was a perfect game aside from it, either. People tended to look past the plentiful repetitive elements of the game when scoring highly.
>>
>>379387993
Hum, I see your point here.

I think BotW had a free pass on some issues because the reviewers saw the game as "how the next open world games should be made".

Of course some things were not perfect, shrines should have been a "real part" of the overworld, we could have use at least one more Beast, the breakable weapons system could have been tweaked, and rewards for quests are very poor... But as I see it, it's like finding a spelling mistake or some strangely written sentences in a very good essay. We all know these mistakes are there and that it's unfortunate, but it won't change the fact that the core of the essay is great.
>>
>>379388516
Because it's very important for Nintendo that you ALSO have to buy the grip separately
>>
>>379389502
But they don't even have the grips for sale

its fucking insane
>>
>>379386645
Oh you mean a complete version of a game got a better score than the base game? I call shill.
>>
>>379389554
You mean they are sold out ? I can assure you Nintendo is selling them

>gameblog
>>
>>379389809
I think Nintendo only sells charging ones, I can't find the regular one
>>
>>379389947
Ah yes. That is the case. Though with two sets of joycons, a charging one would be better no ? You wouldn't have to swap them on your Switch to charge them.
>>
>>379390124
I guess, but it really doesnt matter, the battery they use in the joycons is the same nintendium the Wii U pro controller uses

Seriously, what is up with Nintendo's controller battery life? I use my pro controller on my pc and I need to charge it once a week.
>>
>>379390246
>Seriously, what is up with Nintendo's controller battery life? I use my pro controller on my pc and I need to charge it once a week.

Yes they have insane battery life. Definitely not the same battery they used for the Switch ahah
>>
>>379384082
I seriously hope the lower scores are because of content and not "I suck at this game and I refuse to learn it".

That and I'm willing to bet ARMS takes some getting used to and learning to git gud.

Which, as we all know, game journalists are fucking garbage at. That doesn't mean everything said in a review is invalidated of course but I generally disregard anything that involved player skill mentioned in reviews, such as difficulty or "Depth of the game mechanics".
>>
>>379392134
It does. I've been playing fightan since I was a kid and even I had to get used to the gameplay but saw the potential in it. I saw plenty of clueless people online who just spammed grab cluelessly. I can imagine plenty of journalists who were probably those shitters.
>>
>>379389947
Nintendo sells the non-charging ones.
https://store.nintendo.com/ng3/us/po/browse/productDetailColorSizePicker.jsp?&productId=prod840605

>>379390808
That's not how battery life works. The Switch itself uses a much bigger battery than the controllers, but its battery life is lower because its power consumption is much higher.

Can you filter between controller types for online matches? No way in fuck do I want to play against a pro controller when I'm fucking around with motions controls and vice versa.
>>
>>379395802
You're not getting any advantage/disadvantage on different controller match-ups.
>>
>>379396149
Was just going through a couple reviews and two of them mentioned how grabbing can be inconsistent with motion controls and you'll end up just throwing a punch instead. Not facts or anything but I'd rather have the peace of mind knowing my inputs won't have that issue if playing competitively.
>>
>>379395802
Stop caring about your loss rate in a casual party game
>>
>>379396654
Did you not play the testpunch? I used both motion controls and standard controls, its easy to fuck up a grab on either if you're not being precise about it. Otherwise it's purely up to preference.
