I shared an uncommonly great Switch game deal in a recent thread about purchasing Switch games. What's to "save"? Stop being a Scrooge. I already had to clarify that your gif didn't mean the deal was gone. It's brand new.

Deal isn't expired. Anyone who doesn't have Odyssey yet is already late.

Hades on Switch, Sunset Overdrive and ReCore on Steam, HoMM3 on GoG

Doesn’t sound too long for an open world game either. 30 hours, 60 for completionist.

Reviews seem to suggest it hasn't captured what made BoTW special. Mainly that the world is much more 'designed' feeling than organic. I'm not against if it's done well (ie: Link's Awakening, Skyward Sword). But in a modern open world context... I'm curious. Some reviewers also love the puzzles, others hate them. I'd like to pick it up still, but on sale. Hearing that it's somewhat demanding on PC and bad on Switch is also kind of a bummer.

Hades has become my new addiction.

I beat Pyre recently. Great game, though not everyone will love it. (I did) Slay the Spire is amazing. Super addictive.

More Switch indies should have demos, IMO. With those prices it’s still more of a barrier just to jump in. Then again, the giveaways and promotional libraries on other platforms kind of serve that function anyways.

Indies cost too much on Switch though. I mainly buy them on PC unless it’s an addictive run game that plays well on the analog stick (Slay the Spire, Hades).

You can find Mario & Rabbids super cheap these days, especially on Black Friday. Get that.

Another reminder to get/play Supraland. On Games Pass too atm.

It was also in the itch.io BLM bundle from earlier this year, for those who picked it up.

For extreme cheapskates like me, it’s hard to even know what to spend Steam credit on anymore with EGS and Twitch Prime giveaways being a thing. Not to mention bundles and Humble Choice. I figure MS’ (and EA’s) games have less of a chance ending up in those avenues due to Games Pass. It’s a much better gamble than indies. Seeing them in GP/Gold/PS+ is usually a sign they’ll be free on EGS before long.

As I said in the other thread, I’ll probably go with Sunset Overdrive, ReCore and Mirrors Edge 2. Historical lows at $5. Doubt they’ll get cheaper in the winter sale, but if they do, that’s what Steam refunds are for.

All are free with my marketplace Steam credit. I’d rather own them outright anyways with them being so cheap.

You’re thinking too much like Nintendo there, lol It would hurt Sakurai’s soul too much to do a remaster with online play.

I think the post makes it clear they do want competitive scenes for their games, but mainly put effort into those where it wouldn’t grow as organically.

Picked up Hades on Switch, might get it on EGS as well. Anyone have any thoughts about Sunset Overdrive, ReCore and Mirrors Edge Catalyst? They’re all $5 on Steam today.

Wargroove is on my play list. Definitely missing my AW fix.

In fairness, Nintendo’s been terrible about this before there was ever a (known) problem. They’ve also resorted to shutting down online tournaments now. They didn’t appreciate fans hacking in good netcode during Covid.

Even PS2 emulation isn’t in the best place right now. Too much input lag that hasn’t been resolved.

Captain Toad (Wii U) and Age of Calmity (Switch) Just so much fun, on both accounts, even though the latter is a little frame-y. I should have played Captain Toad a long time ago.
