i started up luigi u shortly after i beat nsmbu, and i was surprised by how much i liked luigi u more. game has a real bite to it, and the short levels are really satisfying

Has anyone played FIFA or NHL on Switch? Just wonder how they play. Haven't played either in years but feels like something it would be good to take portable.

I've been on a little bit of a turn-based strategy kick lately but I just can't get into SW Heist. partly the art style and the flat 2d perspective just really doesn't appeal to me.

you gotta do a real soft jump in the opposite direction to stall your momentum and hit your platforms

I play a ton of FIFA on mine in portable mode. It’s definitely a different feel than the console versions and obviously scaled down / doesn’t have the frostbite engine and there is less control with skill moves but it’s a lot of fun still.

Last year when I was working on a job with a ton of down time I would bring my switch and me and one of my coworkers would play a bunch with the split joycons and it doesn’t feel too horrible once you get used to it.

thanks Cone. And I guess they haven't ported an NHL game to Switch yet.

I played the Yoshi Crafted World demo and thought it was fantastic.

I recently have gone back to finish yoshi's wooly world, and man it's an incredible game. It's chill as hell, and I know everyone knocks modern yoshi for its ease, but it's a joy to play. (except for the 5th world which introduces massive amounts of crushing deaths- imo the worst sin possible in platformers)

I will definitely be getting crafted world.

are the new ones even easier than yoshi's story? I haven't played anything since but that's one of my favorite games. it's def not hard but I feel like it's just difficult enough to remain engaging; are the recent ones even easier? they footage I've seen of them always seems very on-rails, and I played thru the crafted demo and it's hella cute but basically just felt like following signs and collecting items in a very offputting way. the trailer video seems to show some proper platforming challenges and boss battles tho so maybe it's just a bad demo?

Yoshi's Wooly World has like, a self-selecting difficulty imo. If you want to get through the levels and get to the end it's easy as hell for sure, but to collect everything in every level is hard as hell (I found)
