Nintendo eShop - March 2019 | Weekly Updates on Threadmarks
- Thread starter tolkir
- Start date
Yes...it's a good retro 3D platformer. Switch port is mostly good although some of the later levels had some annoying hitching.
I don't want to worry anyone but the Nintendo website now says "release date: TBD" for Baba Is You and no longer lists a price.

Hopefully this is just a glitch.

It might be because it's the 13th and since it hasn't been pushed out as "released" yet it might automatically switch to TBD but i'm just guessing honestly. Steam still has it for the 13th but it doesen't state when exactly (no timer countdown)
For Baba I think it would have to be an extremely recent decision to delay it if that's the case because the dev hasn't said anything and has been retweeting fanart for a giveaway he's doing tomorrow (or whenever it launches) up until just hours ago.
I'd be super annoyed because I literally just bought the eShop credit to buy it :/

Seconding all of this regarding Spintires. It's a very good port but the game itself is not for everyone. It is literally about slowly driving your vehicle through muddy environments and making it to your destination in one place. There is a demo available for PC (I'm not sure how similar it is to the final game) so people can try it out themselves. https://www.gamepressure.com/download.asp?ID=45132
It still says 13th on the console eshop so I'm gonna go with what smartsoap said.
Oh I assumed the Nintendo site and the eshop were synchronized so I got worried for a moment.
This seems to confirm the release is still happening!
With regard to Steam, if it says the 13th, it's going to be 19.00 CET on that date in 99.99% of cases.
Minit is by far the best one of those available now. It truly captures the spirit of Zelda. The rest pales in comparison. Next up is Ittle Dew 2+. Hyper Light Drifter is also often recommended but I personally feel like it's not quite the same thing.

Thank for the impressions. Sounds good.
I know the game is not for everyone but I have been meaning to try one these simulation-type games and this seems to be relatively well-received. I was a bit worried about the port because a lot of these more demanding 3D indie titles seem to have quite bad ports on Switch.
If anyone else from the Nordic countries (or Europe in general) is interested in the game, it is currently on sale for 25 euros at CDON.
Hyper Light Drifter is very much Dark Souls in spirit rather than Zelda. Rinse and repeat, learn to play better and manage your limited health/heal opportunities. It is great but won't scratch a Zelda itch.
First Baba is You review I've seen: 10/10 https://www.anaitgames.com/analisis/analisis-baba-is-you (Spanish!)

How is this game? PixelJunk Monsters 2 scratched that tower defence itch but was really, really dragged down by the load times.
I can't believe Vasara and Vasara 2 are coming, these two are legit good! forget about Visco's previous crapshmup, both games are the real deal and NEVER left JPN arcades afaik.
They are also adding a new endless mode with new gfx (honestly don't really care but awesome if it ends up good) and SLG is putting out a physical edition for those interested.
If Switch was blessed by Cave's output or even just M2's ST series (doubtful to say the least) it truly would became the ultimate STG console. I mean I'd pay $50 no problem to get Mushi and Mushi Futari on Switch.
I'd love to retire my Xbox 360 lol
Btw the announce trailer sucked so have some gameplay instead (no idea if this dude is decent but quality seems better than what is usually out there for these games)
I thought the big patch fixed that (and a bunch of other things)?
I was waiting on sale to grab it because after initially being super cold on it, I gave a real chance to the demo and loved it.
But awful load times can utterly ruin a game for me

It begins :)
Now let's not be like Souls fans, and let's be enthusiastic without being too pedantic ;)
Aren't Epilexia Spanish? That is a spanish site. Maybe it's Epilexia's review ;)
For real I've been onboard with Baba so not really surpriced with the acclaim.

Just what I needed to hear to justify importing like €80 worth of display only soft toys from fangamer... to a growing collection :D
I'm really surprised at the hype around Baba Is You. I wasn't hugely impressed at the trailer and it didn't seem much of a stand out title.
I'm eager to see wider impressions from the community on the game!
Oh looks like there was a patch in December? I haven't played it since then, I'll have to give it a go. It was a 90 second load time previously to get into a level.

I'm reading it more carefully and maybe you aren't wrong. Sometimes it reads like an Epilexia post, besides he had a review copy. Baba Is Conspiracy.
Thanks for this, I'll pick this up one time or another.
Have you tried the online part? Looks very interesting, but I assume that part isn't very active any more (crossplay is probably out of the question).
Not sure if it has been noted but Yume Nikki: Dream Diary has been removed for purchase from the US eShop:

Is Turok coming out worldwide this week? It's not in the coming soon section on the aussie eshop.
Dark Souls - I remember reading that the button mapping was a bit fucked on this. Is this still the case?
Dead Cells Rise of the Giant free DLC coming to PC on March 28. No date for consoles yet.

Nope, I'm not Víctor Martínez, the author of the review in Anait Games.
But for those who don't know the Spanish media, he is one of the most respected video game critics in my country, and Anait was pretty big in the past.
It's not a random review from a random guy in a random web.

Yep
But this doesn't make the game unplayable, you'll get used to this.
This will probably never get patched.
Has The Behemouth even mentioned considering porting games to Switch? I would love me some portable Castle Crashers!

Wait what, why? i was waiting on a sale for this so I'm incredibly bummed. Rights issue?
Update: It's a rating thing like Deltarune, and apparently temporary.
Yes, but only in one way. You can change the control layout for everything but confirm/cancel in menus, and the default for that is A= cancel, B= confirm.
Which is horrible.

Ratings issues. There are problems with ratings on eShop with some titles since the beginning. We have one or two titles delisted each month for this reason.
You're blind. The search bar is dead center right above those filters.
Yeah, some saw this coming with its Teen rating. Hopefully it's not gone long.
What region? Canada doesn't have a search bar for some reason, so I always use the American site. Other regions are probably the same.
Yeah, Víctor is the best game critic in Spain (at least for me)
Games not released on PS4 don't get quite the same level of hype as others around here...
As intriguing as this looks, I have similar concerns. Stephen's Sausage Roll comes to mind. Brilliant game. Too brilliant... but I'll probably give Baba a go.
