COGconnected writes - We've fired up the ARMS global test-punch, and so far it's a spring-loaded uppercut's worth of fun that flexes the motion control muscles of the Switch.
VGChartz's Mark Nielsen: "The Nintendo Switch has been one Nintendo’s most successful systems ever, both measured by the number of units sold and the quality of its titles, but if there’s one thing this generation has been missing it would have to be the Nintendo Selects line, bringing existing titles that had paid their dues back at bargain prices. With the Switch now entering its twilight years, and there being few new titles in store for the foreseeable future, what better time could there be to bring back this tried-and-true tradition? While the actual realization of it may be doubtful given how rigid both hardware and software prices have become in recent years, that only gives us all the more reason to dream up a hypothetical lineup of our own.
For this article the specific focus will not be on those massive multi-million evergreens that the lineup would no doubt contain a few of to cement its value, but instead on games that for one reason or another fell short of their full potential the first time around and deserve a second chance to reach more players at an affordable price. Let’s get started."
I really want Xenoblade Chronicles X on the Switch, can't believe that hasen't been ported. I'm playing Skyward Sword at the moment and I'm almost finished, but it's so long and the controls are so bad, even without motion. Astral Chain is fantastic though, they should make a sequel.
Nintendo has prepared a new version 5.4.1 update for ARMS, and the official patch notes are now available.
ARMS has received its first update in five years, but we'd prefer if it got a sequel
I got the same for Splatoon 2. Nintendo's release notes should be more detailed. Interesting.
I won't lie my first match I got beat up pretty quickly due to being timid. I learned the controls quickly and went on a 5 match winning streak until I played the round where it's a every man for yourself battle royal.
At first I didnt enjoy but it grew on me A LOT. Its got a huge learning curve but it will be very rewarding and addictive!
