    I'm excited for both but more so for DOOM.  The sad part is I may need to wait for a Black Friday discount to purchase

    Black Friday isn't too far out! I'm sure you'll get a fantastic deal too!

    Im excited for em! Will be sweet to have on Switch! Just more excited for Xenoblade 2!  



    I had Xenoblade 2 on the 3DS, but I didn't like it much. I might give it another go around, maybe I didn't give it a fair shake.

    Ok, just purchased Death Square in store. The first three pics are the ones on the shelf which i didnt buy. Note the number on the rear of the case. It implies more then 500 were made, but is my assumption only so use at your own risk. https://imgur.com/gallery/CKdGQ https://imgur.com/gallery/XfdzE https://imgur.com/gallery/JFt0z https://imgur.com/gallery/jHUE7



    It's my understanding that they didn't number them 1-500. They start at #872...



    Edit: Here is proof and more info. Read the "Thank you for your support" page inside the case. Here's a picture of the page I took from someone on reddit:

    In case you can't see it: 120 were exclusively made for pax west. 750 covers of the US version were "accidentally" printed....  Rather than throw them out, they decided to "keep them for a later time"... Then to keep number integrity they claim they started at 872 for EB games. So it's quite possible we see 750 for sale in the U.S. at some point.




    Interesting....sounds kinda like a lame marketing "excuse" to later sell a US version. Reminds me of the WonderBoy Asian release being announced, and then soon after, the announcement for a US version. As a collector, I wish region exclusivity was more clear.
  • Voez is getting a physical edition being released in Japan in January!   The publisher confirmed the physical release has English support as well.

    Ok, thanks for clarifying. Haven't had a chance to look at that insert yet, but the posted photo was clear enough to read.
  • Sonic forces updated on OP. Anyone know if there is a difference between the "bonus edition" and if there even is a standard edition?

    The bonus edition comes with joycon skins and costume DLC for your avatar in the game. I saw separate listings for the regular and bonus editions.
  • Received Retro Rampage Collector's Edition yesterday. Everything is packed into the case sealed with the exception of the extra four sided cover.



    Getting Sonic Forces today, but seems like it will be a bad Sonic game once again according to people who already played it. Hope it will be decent enough. =/
  • So damn excited for Doom, Skyrim and Xenoblade 2!!
  • I got Sonic Forces last night and it's painfully mediocre. It's not bad enough that I'd call it a bad game but it's really not that good either. I'll play through it and keep it but it just pains me to say that Sonic Team has made yet another subpar 3D Sonic game.



    I've been looking for Poi: Explorer Edition since it came out and it was almost impossible to find at retail price, online or in store, everywhere I looked it was sold out. But anyway I finally found it at Target last night and I actually really like it. It is VERY Super Mario 64-like, which I mean if you're going to copy any 3D platformer, let it be that. Of course it's no Mario Odyssey but playing it for a bit after Sonic Forces got rid of the bad taste in my mouth. I'd honestly recommend it to any 3D platforming fan though. It plays well and it's fun. My only gripe honestly is the overly simplistic visuals but even so if a game is fun I can overlook that. For $30 you can do a lot worse.



    And I also am excited for Doom. I never played it on PS4 or any other platform but I wanted to, it was perfect when they announced it for Switch. I can't wait for Skyrim either this month. I'm also looking forward to Rime and Axiom Verge.
  • Kraken I am calling it now, Poi will be the first hidden gem on the console!   
  • Hhmmm, the graphics on that game look interesting and if it's a fun platformer I'm on board. I'll look around and see if I can find a copy of it.
  • I think Poi is going to be a hidden gem too! I've been really excited for it's release but I haven't bought it yet. I'm hoping I will be able to get it soon since it looks really fun, and I do love my 3D platformers.

    Nice! Ive had my eye on that Link statue. There is one at my local BB. At least there was earlier. It says Sold Out online but I just saw it there.

    I certainly wouldn't doubt it. I don't buy games just in hopes that they will increase in value but I think Poi could become one of the more expensive titles down the line given that it had a small print run. Regardless, it is a fun game. Definitely a good quality 3D indie game.

    Oh I agree people shouldn't buy hoping the games will increase in value, I can just see it being one of those random games that does.  We've all seen worse

  • Looks like we may be getting the first streaming media app on the Switch today. I've been looking forward to this and the Netflix app so I can get get rid of the v1 apple tv I've been using for these services.

    I've been waiting so long! Only took almost a year! LOL. Netflix is gonna be huge when it makes its way, no doubt about it!

     
  • Oh and I forgot to add this: Xenoblade Chronicles 2 meets Breath of the Wild for special crossover

    Well it's live! First look and there doesn't seem to be an option to download shows to watch on the go. That's disappointing.

    Oh no! That's a bummer! Maybe they'll update it? *Fingers crossed*
  • First DOOM reviews are rolling in. Mostly positive reviews which is good to see. I am definitely picking this up, pretty pumped
  • Definitely excited for Doom tomorrow. Will also have to get that streaming app, woo! Switch is getting there.  



    Edit:  Read the article.  It's Hulu, that's awesome.  My wife and I use Hulu a lot.  I had been using my tablet but now it doesn't matter.
  • Anyone know how the multiplayer is gonna be implemented into the switch? I heard it's a completely different download.
