Hahaha, that's about the consensus on that game. I bought it on the recommendations like the one you quoted, didn't like. I'm a huge fan of the SNES-PSX era Final Fantasy games. World didn't do it for me, but it did for a lot people!

Nintendo eShop - June 2019 | Where a friendly banana, a cursed demon huntress, a brave salaryman and a Zelda musical adventure come together

I kinda regret buying World Of FF. I thought the Pokemon-style gameplay would be interesting but I just found it annoying in the end.
Flex Seal Guy: "Now THAT'S a lotta
Man, if this wasn't a 30+ GB download I'd be all over this. I'm wondering if this is a price error since the game hasn't even been out for a year yet and the 20th Anniversary Edition is also on sale for $33. [EDIT: Also on sale for $3 on PS4/XONE, so I'm ruling out a price error. lol] You know what? Screw it. I'll probably just grab it now just to have a cheap basketball game in the future when I upgrade my SD card. Why not.
Also am flabbergasted yet again at the no-show for Sushi Striker. Like, c'mon, Ninty. I don't even want the damn game. I'm just perplexed why they continue to ignore it time and time again after it barely made a blip when it released. So weird...

It's no price error, nba 2k19 is that price across all platforms.
I am a little surprised they didn't put some kid of switch tax on it. It is by far the worst version of the game, especially if you want to play MyPlayer because you pretty much always have to be connected online anyway, so it's not like you can play it remote.

That has to be a pricing error. Bought.
Edit: Huh, it's not. PlayStation themselves tweeted saying it is indeed $2.99. Wow.
What's interesting is that I seem to also have the anniversary edition available to download and i definitely only bought the standard edition.
This is a great point, if you don't like these systems yea...maybe pass.
Ooh, nice. Just got an email as well. Only three games and "view your wish list to find out more," but it's a start.
Oh man, I'm so getting it!
No, I'm not getting it.
Yeah, I think it just might be the largest Switch download on the entire eShop (until Witcher 3, heh). Also requires 5 GB of system memory. Going physical isn't much better since it still needs over 25 GB of download space. Ridiculous.
I beat World of Final Fantasy yesterday and mostly enjoyed it, though some fights were very very long and annoying towards the end, and I thought a couple of dungeons dragged a bit longer than I would've liked. Still enjoyed my time with the game though, and it was 100% worth the price (I also got it half off on sale a while ago)
Also, crossing my fingers we see CrossCode on treehouse D3. I'd really like to play that sooner rather than later. Please don't tell me it's coming in September or I may have to take out a loan that month.
I'm thinking on getting it but I also want to get Cadence and Hollow Knight and Celeste as the last two are on sale 😭😭😭
Which one (or two) should I choose? 🤔
lol, I haven't pulled the trigger on Cadence yet. Still on the fence. But I have MUA3 downloaded.
I sense some unhappiness looming for our icon loving friends.
Just going strictly from a cash-saving perspective to maybe help you prioritize a bit:
Cuphead: First sale, and small. There'll be other bigger ones for it in the future.
Cadence of Hyrule: Brand new game featuring a popular Nintendo franchise. Don't expect a sale until the holidays, at the earliest.
Hollow Knight: Third time it's been on sale (US eShop) since it released a year ago, and the cheapest it's been.
Celeste: Fourth time it's been on sale (US eShop) in the past 7 months. Same sale price as it was a few months ago.
Hollow Knight is arguably the safest pick-up of the lot since it's the cheapest, goes on sale infrequently, and can take many dozens of hours to finish, so it's probably the best bang-for-your-buck from a play-time standpoint.
Looking for your thoughts on the best games to pick up from the current Switch Eshop sale. Let's say 5 games?
I already own,
Mario Odyssey
Dark Souls
Mario Kart
Undertale
I don't care for Rouge-lites/likes(not sure which it is).
Otherwise, I'm looking to buy all the good games. I'm going live on the Switch this Summer. I'd like to hear some pros & cons or reason why the games are good too. If you have the time of course.

Can someone tell me why Geki Yaba is the top selling game on the eshop? What is this game and how did it get there?
From the list of E3 sales, my favorites... Hollow Knight is a no brainer if you like 2D Metroidvania's crossed with Dark Souls. Mario & Rabbids is one of my favorite Switch games if you like the idea of a XCom-lite. It is easier than XCom, but that's not a bad thing and the focus on moment makes the game its own thing. Celeste is a great tough-as-nails platformer. I'm not a huge fan of this genre, but I still really enjoyed the game. I don't see BotW on your list, but if you are a Zelda fan and never played Okami, now's the best reason ever to do so.
I don't have Starlink Deluxe so it's hard to say other than it's unneeded. But do you plan to mainly play as Starfox in the Arwing (as I do)? Then it's not.
Why would I do that when Cadence is just a more visually attractive version of the same game.
It was free if you already had purchased a QubicGames game.
Also, Qubic gave away Robonauts for free if you subscribe to their newsletter. And, as long as you own a Qubic game, including the free Robonauts, you get Geki Yaba for free.
Eh I picked it up, it has a really nice sale right now. I'm glad I resisted back when Cadence of Hyrule was first revealed.
Because they don't really play exactly the same, it has like 6 fantastic soundtracks in a single package, two great games are better than one AND it's only 4 bucks!
Hollow Knight and Cuphead.
It's the most wholesome game ever made, now in co-op. It's very accessible too.
The Liar Princess and the Blind Prince would like to speak with you.
They want their "Most Wholesome Game Ever" title back.

Not on sale :/
Sometimes wholesomeness can't be bought at a discount.
That's why there's Walmart.
During my first few runs of Slay the Spire I thought it was pretty good. Then something clicked during another run and I realized just how much control you actually have over what's going on and also how much you can actually predict and plan for by keeping track of your deck and discard pile, knowing when to trigger reshuffling, etc. Now I'm completely hooked. I've stuck with Ironclad so far so I'm really excited to dig into the other two characters.
I liked the visuals and the story quite a bit, but man the gameplay was spectacularly mediocre.The Liar Princess and the Blind Prince would like to speak with you.

It's a great co-op game. It runs fine on Switch and even lets you choose between a graphics and performance mode.
And should things get too difficult for either you or your partner it lets one character cling to the other so that only one player needs to finish a hard part.
Think I'm in for:
Final Fantasy 7 - the remake stuff and patched version of this make me wanna go in again. Maybe a long burn play through
Ace Attorney Collection - never finished them, and played a few minutes of the first. only hear good things.
Not an amazing discount on these but enough to be interested. Backlog is huge atm though still. Might pass on 7 for now and catch it next sale. How long are the Ace Attorney titles generally?

So torn on FF7.
Still only 20 hours into Octopath...I know I'll drop Octopath so fast if I get it...but I mean I can always go back to Octopath.
Ahhhh

FYI, Best Buy and Amazon price matched a lot of the sales on digital codes.
3rd party seller codes always redeem as full price, so you get more coins back.
NecroDancer doesn't seem to be in any of the stores unfortunately

Finished Timespinner in a little over 10 hours and got one of the couple of endings available. I wasn't really feeling it at first but it quickly grew on me as time went on.
I have a few gripes with the game like the game being much too easy (there's an unlockable hard mode once you finish it, though), the time stopping mechanic being an afterthought and the story kind of just petering out (the side quests are great, however) but when it's all said and done, it wound up being one of the better Metroidvania's on the Switch. Definitely worth a playthrough if you're in the market for a good Metroidvania, especially for those who also love SOTN.
