they sent out deadlines for backer surveys for Bloodstained recently. i am getting it on Switch. wouldn't surprise me to see it at E3 w a 2018 release.

BBxTAG demo with 20 characters out for this weekend

im garbage at this style of fighting game but can still tell this is a fun one
― ciderpress, Friday, 11 May 2018 23:29 (six years ago) link
I gave it a shot for a while and yeah serious fighters are probably just not going to happen for me
― valorous wokelord (silby), Saturday, 12 May 2018 03:40 (six years ago) link
was enjoying beating up other newbies with linne for a bit even though i have no familiarity with the game she's from but all the persona kids and sol badguy-alikes are boring to me. feel like i only have room on my switch for one non-smash fighting game and i doubt this is the one, my puny brain can't deal with the tag team mechanics.
― ciderpress, Saturday, 12 May 2018 04:06 (six years ago) link
"Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[st]" is an unimpeachable game name though
― ciderpress, Saturday, 12 May 2018 04:12 (six years ago) link
other wacky fighters heading Switch-ward this year - see Blade Strangers (crossover game of... random indie characters) and SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy
Under Night is pretty great! problem is it took three years for the last version to make it over here, and it released the week after Dragonball FighterZ

Backed Bloodstained belatedly (that make me a so-called "slacker backer"?) because now they're sending out that 8-bit retro game for free with it as well. Seems fun!

i bought a microSDXC memory card for my Switch and now i can't find a converter. i have several microSD to SD converters but they are too big to fit in the Switch! please tell me there is a microSD to whatever Switch compatible SD i can get (and what it's called)...
― Hazy Maze Cave (Adam Bruneau), Saturday, 12 May 2018 15:00 (six years ago) link
switch uses microSD
― ciderpress, Saturday, 12 May 2018 15:03 (six years ago) link
the port is behind the kickstand
― ciderpress, Saturday, 12 May 2018 15:05 (six years ago) link
hah omg there is! i thought i was going to have to fit it into where the games go

yeah it took me a minute but i figured out what you were doing wrong
― ciderpress, Saturday, 12 May 2018 15:23 (six years ago) link
also, woah at the Bloodstained 8-bit game coming out in like 2 weeks!

Wow that actually looks pretty 8-bitty

played a bit more blazblue crosstag this morning, still awful at it but i'm enjoying it more now
― ciderpress, Saturday, 12 May 2018 15:35 (six years ago) link
xp inti creates does good work generally on these retro style games
― ciderpress, Saturday, 12 May 2018 15:38 (six years ago) link
yeah i'm actually becoming tempted to get blazblue xtag now that i understand what it's doing, auto-combos + the super-condensed control scheme are exactly what i want in a fighting game. still not convinced i need a trad fighting game though with smash on the way

― diamonddave85 (diamonddave85), Monday, 14 May 2018 15:46 (six years ago) link
i guess? It's the rumoured new Retro studio game. Could be awesome if done well? They did Mario Kart 7... generally make amazing games...

Keeping tabs on nearly-baseless-rumor threads on ResetEra just makes me feel insane but I’ve stopped using Twitter so I don’t know what else to refresh all day.

i wonder if the Switch is powerful enough to eventually support a VR peripheral. the Switch has gyros, it has motion tracking, in both the screen and the joycons. it would surprise me if Nintendo does not eventually do something like that. or if not them, then it seems like someone might be able to fabricate a Gear VR-style holder for the Switch, Labo-style.
― Hazy Maze Cave (Adam Bruneau), Monday, 14 May 2018 20:34 (six years ago) link
it is not powerful enough for VR
― ciderpress, Monday, 14 May 2018 20:40 (six years ago) link
Also other companies are doing VR, so Nintendo won’t be interested since it wouldn’t be a point of differentiation for the hardware
― valorous wokelord (silby), Monday, 14 May 2018 20:57 (six years ago) link
Why would you want to add chunky peripherals to a system whose main selling point is being portable AND a console
― El Tomboto, Monday, 14 May 2018 20:57 (six years ago) link
good point. i would advise against using it while driving your car or taking the bus or being on an airplane.

Today it’s Pokemon rumors, something about this year’s games being a revisit/reimagining of the Kanto region featuring Pikachu and Eevee versions.Also the story mode for Mario Tennis has gotten more details in a trailer. Luigi gets kidnapped! Experience points and equipment upgrades!Also fresh trailer for Octopath. The big thing there is as you collect the protagonists into your party you can switch whose story you are playing through at any time within your one save file.

Mario tennis looking less and less skippable... too many games to play this summer
― ciderpress, Tuesday, 15 May 2018 18:58 (six years ago) link
Online test tournament June 1-3 for Tennis; I like these network stress tests disguised as free previews.

yeah they're good except sometimes they cause me to suddenly have another game i want to buy that i could have remained blissfully unaware of like the blazblue one
― ciderpress, Tuesday, 15 May 2018 19:03 (six years ago) link
hah!
― Nhex, Tuesday, 15 May 2018 19:07 (six years ago) link
that's your fault for posting about in here I'll have you know. turned out to be my favorite fighting game I've played in ages, mechanically
― ciderpress, Tuesday, 15 May 2018 19:09 (six years ago) link
also wizard of legend is out today, it's now the good roguelite

xp not on Switch, but if you haven't, take a look at the fighting systems for Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite (very similar w/2v2 and fluid change outs) and Dragonball FighterZ especially being pretty accessible. Even last year's KOF has single button autocombos as well(I'm kinda sorta looking forward to Blade Strangers and SNK Heroines as well)
― Nhex, Tuesday, 15 May 2018 20:14 (six years ago) link
i'll probably give blade strangers a try, it looks kinda trashy but the roster is hilarious. did they ever make more umehara kawase games or is her inclusion just an extremely deep cut?
― ciderpress, Tuesday, 15 May 2018 20:18 (six years ago) link
not really looking for non switch fighters atm and it's sacrilegious to say it but ive never really liked dbz's character designs in general so that's less appealing to me even if it does come to switch
