    We started SwitchUp as we just didn’t find what we were looking for in what was already out there. There are some brilliant creators - but we enjoyed a more retro format like the old gaming magazines. Scoring 5 sections out of 20 to give a percentage score like the good old days! Hopefully, you enjoyed our more unusual style. We’ll always try and cover any new Nintendo Switch games, Top Nintendo Switch games or Upcoming releases as best we can.
    For all things Switch all the time, keep it SwitchUp!

    Hi SwitchUp Family - if you’ve not managed to play this then I’ve tried my best to keep it as spoiler free as possible. If you have then I’ve looked at the visuals in the middle as usual. Sit back and soak up the praise! What a game! If you’ve not yet had a chance - go watch our Buy Avoid or Sale video for our free giveaway of the new Battlestar Galactica game on Switch - czcams.com/video/0BHsOAI8FHE/video.html . Seeyaaaaaa!

      @@rossonpan66 visuals took a hit big time, for me anyways since I've spent so many hours on the pc version.. frames are at 20 to 30 fps which is still in the playable area (not smooth but playable).. if you want this game on the go then no doubt the switch version delivers it for you..
      everything else is still included so the experience is still the same.. You're not missing out on anything except for the visuals and a slightly watered down audio.. still very impressive in my opinion that this game even runs on the switch.. plus it's CDPR so its a must buy for me.. gotta support the cool devs as a sign of middle finger to devs that dont give a fuck to us gamers..

    Bought Witcher 3 on PC when it came out 4 years ago and upgraded my video card at the same time just to play. I would have never thought in 4 years time I'd have it on a handheld console. Visual downgrades aside, it's an absolute dream to play on the go. On my lunchbreak at work I can be exploring those ? on the map just like I did years ago while chained to my desk. Its a technological marvel and truly mindblowing that CDPR and Saber could bring this to a mobile console. 40 hours in and I'm still in disbelief that I have this game in the palm of my hands.

      @Bruno Ribeiro I agree that MK11 should've looked way better than it does now and the Switch is more than capable of producing stunning visuals, but I doubt that it was a rushed and a cash grab port. The developers were really putting their time and effort for this port unlike Capcom's and EA's ports and plus it doesn't look that bad if I'm being honest. It only looks bad when you compare it side by side with other platforms.

    Great review as always guys.
    Your love for this game shines through and you make a very persuasive case for anyone with doubts over the game's quality to pick it up.
    I was already sold , as it is the first time playing it for me.
    Having baled from consoles half way through the ps3 era, the Switch has been a godsend with the array of top, top ports to catch up on , plus the big N's own offerings.
    As it is my first console in years , I have nothing to compare these games to and so I am still blown away that stuff like doom and wolfie run on it and in my view look great.
    I wish people would appreciate for what these games are like for Switch if you only have that as your source of playing games.
    Just gone and picked it, but it will have to wait until later. It's so warm and sunny here at the moment , that I decided to take the long walk to the only chiringuito still open locally to enjoy a large g and t or two by the seaside.
    I suspect that later I'll be playing it through one eye and the graphics will definitely look a bit fuzzy and a tad blurry!
    Keep on gaming!
    Much love - dan x

    As one of those very few who never touched this game before, at first I didn't like it, thought it was tedious and looked horrible.

      SwitchUp I actually am really enjoying it. I went first thing this morning and grabbed it at $10 off, so I’m glad I didn’t wait for a big sale (although I’ll be kicking myself if it goes on a huge discount like Diablo 3 did, when I got it at $17). Overall it looks great in handheld mode. Going to be a great experience (over the next year)!

    I was cautious as to whether or not the sacrifices would be worth it for this game - after all, it's the most ambitious port yet by some way.

    The only thing I can think of that would make me more excited to get my hands on this would be cross-save support with GOG, the way Divinity 2 does with Steam. Being able to play the same save on the go on Switch and at home on PC would be a dream.
    But that feels truly greedy given what they've accomplished here. Maybe they can patch it in someday.

    Put 32 on the Xbox one and 98 on the PS4 with my pre-order of The Outer Worlds in limbo now for Witcher on the go. This may be my new hiking through the woods and tripping on random roots game. Albeit RE Triple Pack is enticing as I’ve only beaten RE 4 about 16 years ago on the Game Cube but have never experienced RE5 or 6...
