Good modern beat 'em ups?

Yeah the slowness is pretty annoying. Cherry is weak, but that speed being the only character that can dash is so nice.

Granted the older beat em ups have that as well, the whole you can't do what your enemies can do, but SoR4 definitely takes that disparity to new heights and it frustrated me a lot especially on Hard. There are some bosses, like Max (the wrestler), that just turn into a non-stop hyper armor fest while you move at like 3mph and they zip across your screen like their asses are on fire. 

 

It really just sticks out a lot to me because the rest of the game is great.

Yeah Max is easily the most annoying boss for that reason. It takes so long to get up to him just to have him start his next invincible move.

Everybody was Kung-Fu fighting - Beat-em-up fans are like addicts cluttering up the mean streets of an '80s New York, will...

 

 

Nice! This looks another instant buy for the summer!

I'll disappoint him by getting it on steam for my Deck/Neo.

 

Is the neo oled? Because I am on a big kick of pixel art on the Switch oled screen, looks so damn good, so that’s where I’m playing this one.

Yeah I'll definitely be buying on Steam. The Deck is so good that I'll only be buying Switch exclusives on Switch at this point. The Switch will always have a special place in my heart for starting this kind of handheld/console hybrid experience though.

I've turned into a scanlines guy for old games (like playing Playstation games on the Deck) so I think in these kinds of instances (for myself) the OLED would probably not be as good.

The Neo Next doesn't. It does have a really nice IPS display but no OLED. The Neo Mini will have a 5.5in 1080p OLED. 

 

According to the CEO no one makes 7in OLEDs beyond the ones made for Nintendo.

 

I'm presently playing SRW30 since the DLC is all out now and it looks great. An OLED would be better but I rather support the official western release and if I' desperate for OLED quality I have my TV.

Thats why the oled is great it looks so good you don’t need scanlines!

Hopefully Valve can change that with 7” oled, I just think it’s the perfect size for pixel art to be large, untouched, and still look good.

Valve would be our only hope in this case barring the Aya Neo Mini.

 

Lol I just realized I have been screwed by Nintendo. I can't play SRW T. I got it digitally before Nintendo had an actual eshop in Hong Kong and it doesn't give me an option to redownload my copy. I am okay in that I did rip my copy so I can play it on my Neo. 

 

I was gonna boot it up since I'd have to go find my carts for the others to compare SRW 30 on an IPS vs handheld OLED.

I gotta respect that you actually rip your own switch games rather than just download them!
