Well I had a switch since day one, but no i have not purchased a game that features online play yet. I want to try and get into the idea of playing with other people even if it means online. You probably know I'm socially inept, though I am not trying to seem harsh about it but well things don't always work out well. Bottom line is that I was thinking about trying to play with some people here, people I know and trust rather than complete strangers. So if you all can share some experiences with how well the functionality of the games are online, that be nice.
Below is a list of games I want to get but don't have yet.
I know, I made a few post about it before, one which was a blog post just sharing experiences with it. Honestly, is a kind of LOVE/HATE game for me. I like it cause is probably the only kind of puzzle game I had interest in but is not easy game to learn, but I have been trying to as you can see here. https://gbatemp.net/entry/learning-puyo-puyo.12757/
Still, even though I don't consider myself good enough for the people dedicated to playing it, is a fun party game to pick up and play every so often even for casual, and my brother also likes tetris, so it would be two games in one for both of us to enjoy.
What can i say, I like me some classic street fighter, is one of the games i had playing on SNES/Famicom and Genesis/Megadrive. It has what made capcom spawn a number of different sequels and spinoffs and also playable in the palm of my hand. While I probably won't buy it for most of the extra content like that JOY CON ONLY MOTION CONTROL MODE, is nice to have even if is probably a over 20 year old game once again given attention for some reason.
This is one I wasn't sure of at first, I didn't know about the game until after the switch was released and I didn't hear very good things about it, but is bomberman right? How can a party game like that ruin the multiplayer mode right? Unless Konami somehow did. Not sure if this is worth adding only during a bargain of some kind. But if anyone wish to enlighten me then please do.
Okay I didn't have the wii u game despite owning a wii u, so I guess I really had no excuse not to own this game. But you know, again wasn't sure about the way it would play online until I heard feedback. I was definitely gonna get it to play with my family but just wanted to be sure what I was buying it for, was it gonna be just me, me and my fam or me and the online community?
I dunno much to say about this game. I said it before but I'll say it again. "It looks like someone ruined punch out!!"
But all kidding aside, this probably is a debating game. Some people don't like it and some do, once the game launched I saw people play it, broadcast it, live stream it and even upload videos, now is like all dead all of a sudden. Not sure if nintendo shot themself with this game or is it just taking awhile to deliver more content for the price of $60. Still during my time on the "Global testpunch" i find it function very well and some updates like controller modification could be a step in the better direction along with hopefully more characters and game modes. Another party game for casuals or fun with friends online? Not sure but I kinda want this, I'll either wait for more news or just a bargain.
Another game with similar story like ARMS. I didn't play the one on wii u. I tried the global test thing before and while I was playing, it wasn't the mind boggling thing I saw in trailers. I'm not gonna say is bad, I guess I wasn't really good at the team based 3rd person shooting game, it played something similar to Team fortress 2 (Without the unique abilities) and more like Uncharted (Without the hiding behind walls) I don't really know how to explain it but I wish I had more time to give it more of a chance, the 1 hour limit wasn't much compared to a full weekend, the updates seem interesting but like any team based game requires a good communication with teammates and also a fun community, so any info would be nice.
Well so far those are the games that I wanted with multiplayer modes. I only have 5 games for my switch and none of them have online. So if anyone here who owns them and played them online, can you share some insight. Also if you was wondering why I didn't mention pokken tournament, well I just didn't find it my thing even for liking fighting games or from the demo I played. I see there was improvements like 2 player local play (That probably should have been on wii u in the first place if it wasn't cause I never heard that it was) More characters and some other things. I don't want people sounding upset about my thoughts of how i view the games, I want to give them a chance, just what I currently know hasn't pushed me enough to actually buy them. I appreciate any help.
