Topic: Nintendo Switch --OT--

So, Fortnite is now all but confirmed for a Switch release. It also seems extremely likely that Dragon Ball Fighterz will also make the jump.

Neither of those are for me, but I know those have been on a lot of third party wishlists.

Given that list of banners for E3 for some show floor third party games seems real....20 million Switches this year is almost underselling it.

Mario Tennis Aces

Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate

FIFA 19 (Just announced!)

Starlink: Battle for Atlas

Then the stuff we didn't know about:

Overcooked 2 - Sold really well on Switch

Paladins - If it lands before Overwatch, there's your hero shooter. Already has Nintendo related imagery and code in it

Dragonball FighterZ - After how Xenoverse 2 sold...

Fortnite - If its on phones with the OS overheads there, then this will run on Switch in a more optimal state, using the full version of UE4 unlike phones. Also, it's Fortnite!

Killer Queen Black - Killer Queen is a 5v5 arcade game that is apparently incredibly fun so a console port for Switch is like printing money at this point.

So, is there a specific process to "activate" the fairies you collect in Adventure Mode (Hyrule Warriors)?

Twice now I've taken keeps where fairies were being held captive (I even ran over and collected them), but the My Fairy tab on the main page is still locked off, and the fairy icon on those stages hasn't been checked off (insinuating that I didn't collect them).

EDIT: Question answered on Nintendo Life.

I got Fifa 18 and Ultra Street Fighter 2 from the bargain bin and was pleasantly surprised by both. I haven't played Fifa since they stopped coming on Vita though so I don't know how it compares to the PS4 version though. Moreover the artwork and the gameplay is very good on USF2. If you like SF and find it ultra cheap go for it.

Those days I play Blaster Master and that I got on discount and this is a good action game for retro fans. I try to expand my game library, shout if you have any recommendation.

In Hyrule Warriors' Legend Mode I only have the final mission left! Spending a lot more time in Adventure Mode lately, as I want to buff up some characters I don't really use (looking at you Ruto & Fi...), so they don't die on me during Legend Mode's finale.

Adventure Mode is quite fun too.

@RR529 I cleared all of Legend Mode...then unlocked Cia's story and just thought "END ALREADY!" but this game just does not stop giving you gameplay.

Made good progress on the Zelda 1 Adventure map too, and two missions of Ganon's Fury.

And I finally caught on how to unlock stuff for My Fairy mode...its dumb

Konami is announcing an Action/Adventure game and a Compilation for Switch at E3.

God knows what.

Metal Gear Survive Cloud Edition and... a Frogger collection.

I'd be tickled pink by a Metal Gear, Silent Hill, or Castlevania compilation.

Watch it be Bomberman or something. lol

@Knuckles-Fajita, when I said I only have one mission left in Legend Mode, I meant the final showdown with Ganondorf. I already have all the Cia and Linkle missions cleared (though I have a feeling there'll be at least one more Linkle mission left, as the last one was inconclusive).

As for adventure mode, man that mode is packed! I'm only about 30% clear in the first map, and there's 8 or so of the things total. Still, I've managed to unlock Young Link, Skull Kid, and Tingle, as well as 3 costumes (all for Link, though). Oh, and tons of Heart Containers for a variety of characters.

Konami :')

@RR529 There is one last Linkle mission yeah. It kinda...ends.

Where is the Wind Waker story stuff? I remember people mentioning that existing.

Also Nintendo's stock is down 12% from May 31st, despite the seemingly packed late 2018 lineup.

@Knuckles-Fajita, have you done the Ganondorf story stuff? Maybe the Wind Waker story stuff opens up after that.

It must exist though, as the first mission of the Wind Waker Adventure Map requires an item I haven't yet obtained (a Hammer, which is apparently the item you need to weaken the Helmasaur King, which you need to defeat in that mission). You need to complete that mission to complete the first Adventure Map too, as I've ran into a few that require the use of Toon Link.

@RR529 I've beaten all the Legend stuff save for Cia's mode so...

@Knucles-Fajita, I just unlocked the Wind Waker story branch. It unlocked after I completed the final battle (the one where Ganondorf takes on his beast form at the end) and it's Linkle offshoot (her 5th, and I assume final, mission).

I completed the Cia storyline before taking on the Ganon stuff though, so you probably need to complete the Main, Linkle, and Cia storylines before unlocking the Wind Waker stuff.

@RR529 Alrighty. Thats a job for tonight. I need to work on some reviews though...before E3...

So Paladins kinda just...got announced....launches on Tuesday with the paid Founders pack before it goes Free to Play later. Think of it like Early Access.

@RR529 I wasn't prepared for this, but can we talk about how absolutely heavenly those Wind Waker remixes are?

@Knuckles-Fajita, they do sound good (but then again I've never played Wind Waker...).

Anyhow, the repetition is starting to set in for me (particularly in Adventure Mode). I'm still gonna' finish up Legend Mode, but I may slow down once I do. Good thing there's going to be lots of E3 footage to keep me busy soon, as Ys VIII is likely the next thing I'm likely to get (maybe I'll download A Magical High School Girl to tide me over. It has sort of an Octopath vibe going on with it's visuals, and I'm kinda a sucker for games set in a Japanese Sub/Urban setting).

@RR529 Ys VIII lands on the same day as Crash for me (RIP WALLET!)

It hasnt sunk in for me yet. Thankfully each Adventure map seems set on doing different battle conditions it seems.
