Supposedly 7, 9, x, and x2 are coming to switch. I might have to buy alll of em. Never quite beat 7 and I was on disc 3 for 9. I loved all of them.

FFIX is my favorite final fantasy of all time. Love Vivi!

I have 1 set of joy cons that came with the switch but I wanted to get another becuase my gf and I love mario party. It's just jesus louises 75 for those tiny little things. That's more than a game! I'll have to look into mario and rabbids.

Ah ok I assumed you didn’t have it since you didn’t mention it. Yes it’s a pain this game chose to go that route but it’s because some of the mini games are mobile.

The gamepro is a much better investment but if you know you’ll play Party with 3 plus people a lot the joy cons are a must buy unfortunately.

Since my 6 year old fell in love I had to bite the bullet and get extra so my whole family can play.

Yeah as of right now I'm good with just playing with the joy cons attached to the sides of the switch but I just ordered the gamecube controller adapter so I could play smash bros with a gamecube controller

You should still be fine. The joy cons should be able to work as 2 controllers. Sucks because they are so tiny but it's a nice work around until get other controllers or whatever. We currently have 3 games (smash, Mario aces, and 1 2 switch) and using the joy cons separately works on all 3 games. I'm guessing Mario party would be the same.

They work on every game as an individual controller. I’m just not a fan of how tiny they are.

That's good to hear. My hands arent gigantic but these joy cons make my hands feel like it.

Agreed. I dont get why they did

My guess is for kids. My 4 and 6 year old have no issues with them at all. Of course they don’t really know any better. Although my 6 year old gets upset that I won’t let him use my gamepro controller for other games.

They also work just fine connected to the switch as a mobile console. I have no issues with them then. Which is actually probably why they did it. But I like to play docked in a lot and so when the joy cons are not connected i hate them. Imagine Mario kart with them.

Makes sense but did they really think their demographic was small children? I dont think a 4 year old would know how to use the thing. Also, I have played mario kart using 1 joy con...it was awful.

I actually think it was more the convenience of sliding off and on to switch between docked in and mobile. Which they couldn’t do with something like the old wii controllers.

And no they probably weren’t marketing to 4 year olds at all. But probably did expect a lot of kids who wouldn’t mind the size.

My 4 year old is actually pretty decent with it though. He can play Mario Kart as well as Mario Party if we instruct him on the mini game before starting it. And the 6 year old really knows what he is doing with it.

True I do enjoy laying in bed playing smash bros on the switch. It is a lot of fun.

Warhorse studios acquired by THQ Nordic. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or bad thing.... I don't know much about Nordic but I hope the allow warhorse to keep doing what they've been doing.

Final Fantasy IX demo is available on switch.

And Final Fantasy VII will release on switch on March 26th.

Nordic had been a big buyer of studios and IPs lately. Even more than Microsoft

Started the Batman Telltale series. Pretty fun.
