Code of Princess EX Announced for Switch (Retail + eShop)
- Thread starter Dandy Crocodile
- Start date
PC ver. ran fine for me as I don't recall having any performance issues.
huh?
I don't remember any kind of bad performance when I played it.
in fact I found it to be one of the better beat'em ups. I loved the goofy voice acting

On 3ds, there would be massive slowdown if you used fire/explosion attacks on big groups of enemies
Yeah? I was playin on the beefed up 3DS.maybe thats the reason
Wait the game has 50+ playable characters? Maybe i will buy it on PC.
The tree looks 2d in the 3ds version but 3d in the Switch version, it's probably the same for other elements, but yeah the new graphics look too clean and simple.Not to gripe about little stuff, but is this a port of a cellphone version? The revised graphics look...well, in the example they chose to highlight improvements, it's not all that flattering.

Just based on this at least, the surfaces in the original game evoke the actual style of the artist (albeit in low res), and the new art seems to be more flat-shaded surfaces (the ground, for example). The tone is really different. That was what made me think of a cellphone port.
Ah damn that's a shame. Well hopefully as the release draws closer we'll get more info on any improvements they may have made outside of just graphical/performance.
Oh, cool -- it's confirmed now. I never actually got around to the 3DS game, despite having bought it... what, 5 years ago now? Oh well. Seemed like the technical issues were a huge drag. Curious to see how the game is now that it's relieved of those issues.
Also, I am all about 3DS games coming to Switch.

I hope they go into what exactly they changed for AI and gameplay balance before the game releases. Those details will determine if I pick this one up.
Yeah, apart from the main characters and bosses, every single character model becomes playable after finishing the game.
Not even a huge roster of playable characters could save this one for me when it came out 100 years ago on the 3DS. Incredibly repetitive combat with very little depth.
It was actually worse on PC, so keep your expectations in check
Was the queen also unlockable? I seem to remember being disappointed she wasn't playable, since it was the one I was most interested in.
I can't find much chatter about this and it releases this week. Anyone managed to get their hands on a copy? The price tag puts me off since I own this on 3DS and PC and bounced off it because I didn't like how it felt to play it. Would love some hands on impressions if anyone was sent a copy, etc.
The review actually sounds pretty good. Original 3DS version was hampered by frame rate issues and PC port was pretty terrible from the reviews.
This isn't too bad at all.

I think I only really had fun after unlocking one of the barmaidens who only had one attack- a kick that caused super knockback/crumple and was super satisfying to use.
Picked this up last week and kind of wish I had done some research on it beforehand. I expected it to play a bit differently. The characters walk very slowly unless you're dashing, which kind of turns me off. Other than that, the game seems decent but I've only put about 30 minutes into it.
Just ordered the physical copy. Never played the 3DS version, but I'm always ready for some side scroll beat em up action. Especially with the new local coop mode!

NL say it doesn't look great on the TV
I was confused too, but the eshop page for the game says it supports 2 - 4 online, I think it's just the 2 player local play is new so they're advertising that.
Played this on 3DS when it released only due to the similarities to Guardian Heroes.
Really wish we could just get a new Guardian Heroes. I really enjoy "lane-based" beat-em-ups (is there a better term for this? lol).

This. The local mulitplayer is indeed new from what I remember. Looking forward to getting my copy in the mail today. I really enjoyed this on the 3DS. It's very grindy when it comes to leveling up characters but I like that with this game. The character designs are really nice as well.
You can play online with others. The modes are:
- Co-op
- Co-op (Quest set)
- Versus (Ranked play)
- Versus (Free play)
- Versus (Ultimate)

Thank you :) Hated this game so much on 3DS. Tried to sell it to Gamestop and even they wouldn't take it lol. Willing to give it another shot running on more capable hardware
For anyone interested, here's my review over on ComicBook.
This game is pretty much exactly what it looks like, but shit, I've actually been having a lot of fun with it.

I started the game today and I'm pretty satisfied so far :)
Never played the 3DS version, but I'm always hyped for some side scroll beat em up action. I jumped straight into local coop with my girlfriend and it's a lot of fun. Is there a tutorial when you play alone? Because there was nothing when we started. We quickly figured out the basic mechanics and controls and it reminded me of Guardian Heroes, which I only played on the Xbox 360 for a while. Especially that you can do special attacks with street fighter commands, like hadouken etc.
Also the second level was a graveyard. Wasn't it the same in Guardian Heroes? Felt like a tribute to it.
