Bloodstained: CotM is a modern day oldschool classic. It's like if the NES Castlevanias were...more approachable.
Easy rec, and I haven't even played RotN yet.
Does the Switch version of Blaster Master Zero come with all the extra characters like Shovel Knight, etc?
Quite happy with this sale! Grabbed:
Sega 3D Classics (3DS)
Corpse Party (3DS)
Fairun Collection (Switch)
Oniken+Odallus Collection (Switch)
Super Bomberman R (Switch)
This sale has also pretty much convinced me that I just need to look at the website from now on instead of trying to look through it on the Switch, which is a laggy mess. They really need to do an overhaul on the eShop and add features to the OS in general, but I digress...

I can't compare it to the PC version, but it runs excellently on the Switch.
You missed one ;)

Yeah I haven't played RotN either (debating picking it up this sale but I have a lot of other sidescroller action games to get through so still unsure), but CotM is just so good it's hard to not recommend it.
Damn. I just realized we're far along the Switch's life to get pretty great sales like this now. Rip wallet
I don't have pc version but I have no problems with it on switch
Yep! I've been waiting for a sale to pounce on that one.
Along with River City Girls, I decided to snag Devil May Cry as well.
$12 on Best Buy, if that helps.
Thinking of grabbing Katana Zero.
Is Mortal Kombat 11 any good on Switch?
edit: Shit, I'm curious about Risk of Rain 2 also...

Heard Wandersong is super charming and enjoyable. Ori is one of my favorite games of all time so if you like your Cutetroidvanias with a heaping dose of platforming I think you will love it.
I ended up getting Risk of Rain 2 since I heard good things about it. Haven't launched it yet.
See above.
I think its a perfect port with no issues.
Wandersong is lovely and fantastically original, though it's much closer to bring a "narrative adventure" or whatever you want to call it than the other two.
Nice, I went ahead and picked it up. Looking forward to finally giving this one a try!
Wandersong is one of my all time favorite indies. It has a fun gameplay mechanic of using the power of song to help people solve their small problems and the characters and narrative are some of the best I've seen in a video game. I was really enamored with my time with Wandersong.
I may be wrong, but i think theres a demo of Wandersong on the eShop
After the last patch it's better. I found it very playable, the only thing that bother me is the load time.
Tempted to pick up This War of Mine for 60% off, I don't think I've seen it as heavily discounted as that before. I heard it's great minus some minor issues with the buttons sometimes causing the wrong interactions when your characters are standing near multiple interactable objects.
This was a good sale. Finally binged on things I have been holding out on.
Okami HD, Unravel Two, Mario + Rabbids DLC, and Uglydolls (for the 5 year old who has asked for it)

No Return of the Obra Dinn? Waiting for it to go on sale, have too much of a backlog to pay full price
Dead Cells is on sale right now on Nintendo e-shop, but I haven't quite decided if I want to play it on PS4 or Switch. I hear the performance isn't as good on the switch. Can anyone confirm this?
Grab Mortal Kombat elsewhere. And get Katana Zero immediately.
I play it in handheld and it normally runs good, but, if you do runs with fire+oil, that can turn into a PowerPoint. Theres the option of cap it at 30 but nah.
Snagged Steamworld Dig 2 and Jamestown+, I think that's gonna be it for me for a while. Maybe I can actually play some games now.
It is as any other AAA game on Switch: a huge technical achievement for a portable system and you will enjoy it a lot if that will be how you play it, but with noticeable sacrifices if you looked at it like a console game mainly. I enjoy it very much, it looks very good and it is smooth overall, but the difference compared to PS4 is very clear.
Picked up Shantae 1/2 Genie Hero Ultimate Edition, been waiting for it to go on sale. Next is probably River City Girls.
I bought VC4 last year and still haven't played it
I really gotta chill with buying vs. playing lol
By the time I get around to playing it, its going to be even cheaper.
Definitely Valkyria Chronicles 1
A GOAT SRPG
Yup Yup.
lol its the same price as last years new years sale iirc.
