    Downloaded and played Disco Elysium for about an hour yesterday, but refunded it. There is so much text to read, I feel like the experience will be much better on a handheld console. I can tell it's a very good game, just going to wait for the Switch port.

    I got it on my MacBook so I can play it in bed. I can't recommend it highly enough but I would also advise everyone to get it on a platform that is not hooked up to a television set. It's a friggin book.

    Such an amazing game. Loving it on my PS5, and yeah it could be a lot more easy to read on the Switch.

    Really underwhelmed by that monster hunter update but maybe the story ending is bigger than I assume. It’s not as bad when you consider they’re doing more updates with more monsters for the next two months, though. Really think I’ll love stories, the more I find out about it the better it seems. It definitely seems like it has some elements from dragonquest monsters in it.

    Mother and Punch-Out!! and it's not even close.

    Unfortunately, I can't see them ever making a Punch-Out game again because of the cultural stereotypes involved. People are way too sensitive now to find this game charming and hilarious.

    I think you can easily do a modern Punch out without being racist.

    They were terrible on my One X. I can't imagine the horror they must be on Switch.

    Just to be clear, are you saying that cultural stereotypes are charming and hilarious?

    Stereotypes aside, I don’t think you can make a better Punch-Out than the games that exist in the age of input lag and all that.

    Yes. The past two Punch-Out games did it extremely well.

    Aw man....I remember spending a loooot of time playing F-Zero.

    Me and my friends STILL play Super Strikers once in a while when we're all together (so obviously it's been over a year)....on one hand I want that, on the other I don't know if it'd be the same with updated graphics and all that.

    He's doing this on purpose now. There's no way he could be serious.

    Gotcha. Personally I think stereotypes are unhelpful at best and actively harmful at worst. Seems it should be easy enough to make a cartoon boxing game that avoids them.

    I couldn’t get into the mechanics and gameplay of Arms as much as I would have liked. I prob pay $30 for this game, but Nintendo never puts it on sale.

    In school I definitely felt bad sometimes because certain people kept confronting me with comparatively harmless stereotypes about where I am from (though they always made it clear that they are trying to hurt me). Things add up. I agree that Punch-Out doesn’t seem malicious, but yeah, it’s time to move on regardless.
