Switch emulator Eden is surviving life after Nintendo kicked it off GitHub - Reddthat

I keep wanting to check things like this out, and then I remember there’s not even any Switch games I want to play. I tried the open world Pokémon game when that came out years ago, purely just to see what they did (it was boring as fuck, as pretty much everyone agree). The only other thing is maybe TotK, but there’s better things (in my opinion) that I still need to play. Shadow of the Erdtree, for example, is something I still need to get around to.

If anyone actually does think there are Switch games worth playing, in your opinion, what are they? I’m curious. I have to admit I avoid most advertising and don’t follow Nintendo stuff, so there could be things I’m not aware of.

Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom have an atmosphere like a Studio Ghibli movie. If that doesn’t appeal to you than I guess you won’t like those games.
I don’t understand how Nintendo is charging over $100/game and can’t bother to hire voice actors for this shit. I tried ToTK and it felt like a shitty asset flip to me that was way overpriced. Sold my switch and went back to just PC and emulation

Sounds like you’re unfamiliar with Japanese games. It’s not typical for them to have full voice acting.

Calling anything from The Legend of Zelda a cheap asset flip is quite something, though.

I mean are they not using essentially the same assets since ever? Every game they put out just feels like regurgitated IP to maximise profits at this point

… No? Most Legend of Zelda games use the same style maybe twice or thrice… if that. New style means new assets, new models and textures. So they’re not simply reusing assets.

And I strongly disagree. For a game to be priced lower it needs to actually have less value. Not simply be absent of something you’re used to in Western games.
