Will the release of ARMS for the Nintendo Switch give the console the edge it needs to win over consumers?
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "The Nintendo Switch has been one Nintendo’s most successful systems ever, both measured by the number of units sold and the quality of its titles, but if there’s one thing this generation has been missing it would have to be the Nintendo Selects line, bringing existing titles that had paid their dues back at bargain prices. With the Switch now entering its twilight years, and there being few new titles in store for the foreseeable future, what better time could there be to bring back this tried-and-true tradition? While the actual realization of it may be doubtful given how rigid both hardware and software prices have become in recent years, that only gives us all the more reason to dream up a hypothetical lineup of our own.
For this article the specific focus will not be on those massive multi-million evergreens that the lineup would no doubt contain a few of to cement its value, but instead on games that for one reason or another fell short of their full potential the first time around and deserve a second chance to reach more players at an affordable price. Let’s get started."
I really want Xenoblade Chronicles X on the Switch, can't believe that hasen't been ported. I'm playing Skyward Sword at the moment and I'm almost finished, but it's so long and the controls are so bad, even without motion. Astral Chain is fantastic though, they should make a sequel.
Nintendo has prepared a new version 5.4.1 update for ARMS, and the official patch notes are now available.
ARMS has received its first update in five years, but we'd prefer if it got a sequel
I got the same for Splatoon 2. Nintendo's release notes should be more detailed. Interesting.
I enjoyed the demo when I was able to try it out at a private Switch event before the console released. Motion controls are pretty accurate; however, I still would like to try the game out with a standard controller to see how well it handles.
Also hope the final boss is Little Mac or have guest characters from Punch-Out. Even little Easter Eggs referencing that series would be neat.
That game is already out. It's called Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
as a wii survivor i will certainly not go back to wiggle-about game controls. thanks for nothing.
Bahahahahahahaaaaa
I said I wasn't going to comment on Switch articles anymore because I just don't care anymore. But this popped up in the PS4 feed (because N4G have changed their shit, you click on PS4 articles and this crap pops up) and I just burst out laughing.
There is no way in hell this game will win over consumers, not by any number thats significant. It's a game from a bygone era.
A fighting game? Yea because that's not niche...
