Nintendo eShop - May 2019
- Thread starter tolkir
- Start date
One of the most expensive months for me since the system was launched. Buying lots of games and many of them are double even triple dips. And then there are games I'm hoping them to get May release dates. That Yugioh game for example. Or Castle Crashers. Grid Autosport is till without a date too.
I had an amazing time as well.
People here got caught up in the "IT'S 30 FPS AND THEREFORE LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE" state of mind before release. It plays fine, though.
I was so mad they went for a Sonic-only racing game instead of Sega All Stars that I ignored the game until today. I watched the mini series and it got me hyped, then I saw the footage and the game looks awesome.
I'm super tempted to get it on Switch but I'd like to see how it performs first.

Can't say for sure, but probably not. I'd bet on 3AM or 12PM ET.
Yeah, I need to know if it's 60 fps on Switch. If it's less then I can only imagine how horrible it is in split screen multiplayer.
And yeah again, I really miss Vyse and Gillius Thunderhead and the rest of the SEGA all-stars. Really bad cut.
This is true. The game's still a day one purchase for me, but it'll either be on the Switch or the PS4 for me, depending on the former performs on a technical level.
I played it on the Switch and it became one of my favorite RPGs of all time, just love the setting.
And here I thought I had a quiet week where I could hold off on buying anything.
Day one pick-ups:
• Puyo Puyo Champions
• Castlevania Anniversary Collection
• Team Sonic Racing
And any SEGA AGES games that come over. Also still debating on Giga Wrecker Alt. (tolkir, you have this listed as "Giga Wreck Alt." in the OP.)
I'm sure I won't be the first to say this, but buy Katana Zero, it's damn fucking good.
Already pre-orders The Sword of Ditto for this month, looking forward to Shakedown Hawaii as well.
The translation at launch was abysmal but they eventually patched in a better one. It was also a real technical mess on PC which dominated a lot of the conversation at the time. It got there eventually though.
Saint's Row the Third for me. I've had a really rough month and need some nostalgia, and I'm willing to pay slightly unreasonable prices to get it. Plus I know it's a game that will last me.
The false advertisement of "couch co op" (they're actually referring to wireless LAN) is scummy though.

Both my left and right joycons have severe drifting issue and I'm waiting for the replacement sticks (from China so it'll take a while...). So in the meantime, I'll just buy games playable with the d-pad, which I hope will be the case for Shakedown Hawaii.
Also, fuck Nintendo for selling such expensive controllers of such poor quality.

You should use Electric contact cleaner spray. It works really well.
Do you just lift that cap and shoot it in a few sides, then move the stick around and then let it dry???
I look forward to what I end up buying in May. I've still got a ton of backlog to get through though! I'm only up to World 2 on Cuphead, which is one of the most impressive ports I've seen recently, still blows my mind it plays perfectly on the handheld. I'll definitely be getting the Castlevania collection this month (especially if the M2 rumour is true) and I'm in for Capcom's RE ports as I've been buying absolutely everything they've ported onto the Switch so far. Portable RE4 + Mercs mode is just impossible to say no to.
I got WD40 brand stuff, and it seems to be great. I was surprised to see that they did more than JUST standard WD40!
I work in a lab doing research in semiconductors, trust me mate I've tried with all the resources available; I reached the point where changing the sticks with a 4$ one is actually the easiest way...
Agreed 100% and I'm also waiting for my replacement analog sticks, a replacement kit and a 8bitdo m30 because I don't want to touch the pro controllers dpad ever again, I hate it, it's almost xbox360 levels of bad.
I like Nintendo but their silence on these issues is really unacceptable, we should promote a hashtag or something to raise awareness and provoke at least some kind of reaction from them.
Dragon's Dogma, especially if price is a factor. It's a great port.
Heavily recommend getting Ys VIII on another platform if you can; the Switch port is not very good at all. It's certainly playable, and a very good game... but super low IQ, ugly textures, sections where the frame rate tanks, dynamic resolution that glitches when you talk to NPCs.
Why would it be? Capcom's Switch ports have been pretty good so far.
