We gotta get those Tropical Freeze numbers up, folks.

Less than a million on Switch? That ain't right.

Gordonson pointed it out to me but keep in mind those numbers are only reflecting games that moved at least a mil between last April through December not complete lifetime sales

 

[Ricky D]

If I recall correctly, Tropical Freeze somewhere between 2-3 million on Switch.

edit: looks like at 2M at the end of Dec 2018. Outsold the Wii U version in JP in just 2 weeks.

I wanna get Tropical Freeze after I put a decent amount of hours into Odyssey.

The way you guys have been taking about it I fell like I need to do it for the culture.

has anyone in here actually played and enjoyed Three Houses? And what are your thoughts on the Monster Hunter demo?

That's better, but still too low.

Agreed. It’s one of the better platformers. I really wish they’d port DKC: Returns to Switch.

Feel like media outlets been copy pasting this headline word for word for the past 3 years

 

[Master Zik]

I'm cool with that.

Was not looking forward on copping a new switch any time soon after getting the ps5. Still got a grip of games to play on the switch and more to cop this year.

Tropical Freeze is good?

Tryna breathe new life into my Switch, havent picked it up in months. What games are you guys playing these days? I only have Super Smash, Lets Go Eevee, and the Super Mario N64/GC etc anniversary game

I’m looking more-so for an adventure game like Horizon (PS4), what do you suggest?

 

[blastercombo]

The switch could live for 10 + years with what they’re selling as is

freaking Mario kart 8 is a year old game counting the Wii U version and it’s still killing it.

One of the best 2D platformers ever if we being real

pickup Xenoblade Chronicles or Astral Chain for sure

On it, then... I've decided to just keep pushing into Switch for awhile and hold off on PS5 until there's more stuff to really dive into.

If I were to pick one of the Pokemon titles, what's the move? Sword/Shield or Eevee/Pikachu?

Gameplay wise they’re pretty distinct from each other so you can’t really go wrong with either

If you want a shorter, more nostalgic experience then go with Let’s Go

S&S being the new Gen has way more to offer in terms of new stuff though and you’ll easily get 100 hours out of it with the dlc

 

[Ricky D]

I finished Shield and it I can say for sure that Pokémon just ain’t for me anymore

I feel like a grumpy old man but a lot of stuff they changed/added, I hated i.e. dynamax, raids,Pokémon designs etc. I’m glad I played through it though, now I know it just isn’t for me and I can be done with it for good.

I didn’t wanna say anything but it seemed like you weren’t enjoying it man

Why did my wife make us go out and both buy switches today wasn’t even on my radar.
