Part 1 Pro - 0:18 to 7:36

Beautiful anime art style & music (voice acting good too)

Fun (and improved) combat

Improved side quest & Item collecting

Part 2 Cons - 7:42 to 16:04

A bit of a learning curve in gameplay

Annoying one hit kills by over powerful enemies

Resolution take a hit when in portable mode

Part 1 Pro - 0:18 to 6:02

Both games with DLC and runs at 1080p (720p when undocked)

gameplay is a mixtures of third person shooting mechanics (Resident Evil 4) with some old school Resident Evil elements

Revelations runs at a good 60fps…

Part 2 Cons & The Last Jedi - 6:08 to 17:19

…However Revelations 2 only runs at 30fps (switch version)

Story is a bit cheesy (although Revelations 2 story is better)

Revelations 2 is download only (a 26GB download. Really Capcom & Nintendo really)

Really good story

Love the detective part (not to mention it controls well)

Runs well on the Switch (for the most part)

Part 2 Cons - 5:24 to 14:04

Some slowdown here and there

Not as open world as other Rockstar games

Not as good looking as the other version (it look alright but the other version probably look better)

Part 1 Pro - 0:18 to 4:19

All the content here (like DLC & updates)

Even at 30fps/720p the game runs well

Joy-Cons work well on the Switch version of Doom…

Part 2 Cons - 4:25 to 13:05

…But pro controller is the better option

No SnapMap mode

720p/30fps is going to look like a downgrade to some (graphically you can see the Switch limitations)

Part 1 Pro - 0:18 to 6:16

Retro style graphics (has a SNES/Castlevania SOTN vibe to it)

2-D Metroidvania style gameplay

Love the music

Part 2 Cons - 6:22 to 14:40

Visual are good but not as good as say the shantae series

Difficultly spike (when you die you lose your upgrade and you start at the last checkpoint and to get your gear back you have to defeat your possessed character. This can be a turn off for some).

Super Marrio Odyssey review

My review of Super Mario Odyssey for the Nintendo Switch. For gameplay footage click here - https://youtu.be/ybm9FsFiPDE

Part 1 Pro - 0:18 to 8:40

Beautiful graphics (even when undocked at 720p. Runs at a good 60fps both dock & undocked)

Solid controls (didn’t have a huge issues with the motion controls. They don’t feel like they are force on unlike Star Fox Zero were)

Love the capture/posses system in the game

Can easily get lost in the game (in a good way)

Part 2 Cons - 8:46 to 16:05

The 2-D part (including the 8-bit part) are fun but would have like to uses the control pad instead of the control stick for that part

Motion control are fine but would have like to see some of these commands map to a button

Not a big fan of the 2 player mode

Fire Emblem Warriors Review (Switch Version)

My review of Fire Emblem Warriors for the Nintendo Switch (also on 3DS). For gameplay footage click here - https://youtu.be/jl6FhdzFlds

Fire Emblem Warriors unboxing - https://youtu.be/DKp8Vompdjw

Part 1 Pro - 0:18 to 8:53

Good Graphics (love that you can choose to run that game at 1080p/30fps or 720p/60fps when docked)

Elements from the Fire Emblem games add an interesting take on the Warriors gameplay

History mode is fun (like adventure mode was for Hyrule Warriors)

Part 2 Cons - 8:59 to 16:37

When Undocked game runs at 720p/30fps. Not terrible (doesn’t make the game unplayable) but it is unfortunate

Most of the cast of characters are from Awakening, Birthright and Echoes (Which may or may not appeal to some)

Voices acting is tolerable but might be annoying to some (story is good but not as good as Hyrule Warriors was)

My 2 cent Nintendo, EA and Activision

For this my 2 cent video for the week of Oct 15 though 20 I give my thoughts on Nintendo new update for the Switch & a change in there review policy, EA shutting down Visceral Games & the chance that Star Wars Battlefront 2 coming to the Switch (which I doubt) and Activision file a patent for micro transaction.

Knack 2 review

My review of Knack 2 for the PS4. For gameplay footage click here - https://youtu.be/DWZB66cNBdE

Part 1 Pro - 0:18 to 5:23

Improve gameplay

Better story…

Option to have the game run at 30fps (I choose not to)

Part 2 Cons - 5:29 to 11:55

Fix camera can be an issue sometimes

Visuals are good but not mind blowing

…But not the greatest story

Solid gunplay/gameplay (feels a bit open world)

Better loot system

Part 2 Cons - 5:55 to 11:22

Most enemies are rehash from the first game

Micro transactions (there for cosmetic now but worried it will turn into a pay to win situation)

Rayman Legend video review (Switch version)

My review of Rayman Legends Definitive Edition (Switch version) on the Nintendo Switch (original version release on PS3, PS4, PSVita, 360, Xbox One, PC and WIIU). For gameplay footage click here - https://youtu.be/OH88TDGnUsY

Part 1 Pro - 0:18 to 7:56

Beautiful Graphics

Hard but fun platforming

1080p 60fps (720p in handheld mode)

Best of both worlds. Touch Screen mode (for those who like the WIIU version. Note this mode is only avail in handheld mode) and the non touch screen mode (the PS/Xbox version). Plus all the skins (including the Mario and Luigi one that were only in the WIIU version).

Part 2 Cons - 8:02 to 13:14

Outside of Kung Foot the content is pretty much the same all around.

Difficulty might turn off some people

Handheld mode isn’t really that special (same level with the touch screen turn on. Also tilting the Switch console to do some of the puzzle feels awkward)

Hard to recommend when the other version (the older version that is) are cheaper

XCOM like gameplay (with a twist like the team jump and the dash move)

Love the music from Grant Kirkhops

Peach Rabbid is awesome

Part 2 Cons - 7:32 to 14:58

Some performance issues (slowdown during some animations, an odd animations with the clouds and when in portable/tablets mode I notices the game freezes for a second then it continues)

Co-op mode is nice but a miss opportunity to have an online mode

Having only 3 characters on the battle part is somewhat unfortunate

Some of the humor might not appear to some (mostly toilet humor)

My thoughts on the season pass & Mario no longer a plumber - 14:58 to 21:19

For this My 2 cent Switch/Gaming video I give my thoughts on LA Noire coming to PS4, XB1, VR (HTC Vive) and Switch (Which is both good and bad), An update on the possibly of Final Fantasy XV on the Switch (which isn’t great news but not horrible news), More info on Skyrim on the Switch (with rumors going around about the possibly of Fallout 4 GOTY edition coming to the Switch) and my thoughts on the microSD cards that has some Switch owners upset.

Side missions are a hit and miss

Frame rate issues (when things get a little bit too chaotic)
