      I’d be 100% fine if they would at least give us a cod Black ops 1/2 or to really fill in the gap for the shooter genre with a big name game that could easily be run, and zombies would be pretty nice to have on the go. I wouldn’t mind handing over 40$ for them

      It's not about how it looks, but how it runs. Me and my brother have both the Switch. He bought The Witcher, me not. It runs like shit, not all the time tough. For example, you can take a run with the horse and do some fight and 28-30 fps will be achieved, then you could talk to someone and fps drops at 23-25. You can lower the already low settings to achieve some fps but then you'll need to spend a lot of money in various ophtalmic visits

    For me it's The Swicther.
    Look Witcher 3 is my all time hands down favorite game.
    Everyone has that favorite game they always go back to and hold in high regards. The one they try and sell to their friends so they can experience what you've experienced. Witcher 3 is mine. And when it was announced for Switch I was both extremely excited and scared.
    Sure the quality is nothing like it is on my PC. But they managed to fit the entirety of Witcher 3 on a game cartridge.
    Bottom line is I have my favorite game of all time on the go.
    That's a win for me right there

Used that as a chance to main a new weapon and still 500+ hours in I still haven't even touched HALF the weapos in the game.

    Alien Isolation definitely did the best in making that atmosphere work - the smoke effects are beautiful, but for me Dark Souls Remastered has to be the best port simply because it still blows my mind that I can play a souls game in bed or travelling - there is literally nothing to stop me from making people play this game now!

    Great video guys. My favourite port is definitely the Ezio trilogy. I’m a fan of Assassin’s creed games and being able to go through the whole Ezio’s life on my Switch was very entertaining and kinda emotional. The emotional connection I had with the game and with the time when I played it for first time is probably making me be biased but, at the end of the day, gaming is about how one feels when doing it. Also, they look great and the duration is pretty decent

    I have been debating getting it on Switch since it is on sale for $24.99 in the US. So my vote is Dark Souls because I love love love the game and your comments about loving the original graphics just cost me $25.

      Just bought it today, and I'm having a blast! Mega Man 2 and 3 were the games of my childhood :)

    Bioshock collection might be my favorite. It’s a must own imo.
