Hi everyone I just bought a nintendo switch, it's my first BRAND NEW gaming console since the Atari 2600 and my first console since the PS2 I found in an op shop

What good 2 player couch games are there? I have MARIO KART which is ace and BOMBERMAN which sucks.

Cheers, Toump Ass.

Damn Nintendo are really giving the Switch a massive chance to be successful, very refreshing after the clusterfcuk which was the Wii U.

Got some travel time coming up so looking for a couple of games for my switch. I have finished BOTW and odyssey and picked up Rabbids today. Any suggestions?

Xenoblade 2 is great, depends on what type of games you prefer

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (offline still has cups, time trials, battle and vs mode where you can change rules)

Bayonetta 2 (retail comes with a code for 1) is another. Around 10-15 hours on each depending.

Fire Emblem warriors has a LOT of content but you must like the type of game, its grindy.

You have pretty much nailed the main group. Splatoon doesn't have much for travel and I doubt arms does either.

 

[hornetswce]

Yeah i have MK8 aswell, thinking i might just play odyssey again as i rushed through it the first time

Oddworld also have an announcement that day, could be seeing their last game ported to the switch.

 

[kangle4]

I just want a Hollow Knight release date.

THis! and Ritual of the Night!

 

[mighty_sainters]

How long before we get the metroid prime trilogy on Switch. Surely will be ported before Metroid Prime 4.

Last night cleaning out my theatre I had a look at the Wii U games and realised all that I have will be ported to switch bar Mario 3D world probably. Really thinking about trading all the games + console in. I just don’t know if i’ll ever need to run it again.

 

[kangle4]

THis! and Ritual of the Night!

Yeah Ritual looks good as well.

Hopefully the Virtual Console will also feature Wii games, that is wishful thinking, but then hopefully they'd release the best of the best from the Wii era.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Considering a few major Wii titles are streamed on the Nivida shield I'm sure it's quite possible to be considered.

 

[MakeshiftMartyr]

Really hoping we hear about Wargroove tonight.

Apparently Hollow Knight won't be featured, but there'll be some news on it later this week.

 

[bixente]

Played Mario kart 8 for the first time. Finished 6th in my first online race, was just glad not to be last.

 

[Mootsy]

Nindy showcase was really disappointing, but this was the best of the lot for me.

My copy of Gear Club Unlimited arrived from Oz gameshop

Only played for about an hour but I'm loving this game reminds me of Test Drive Unlimted which I loved.
