Borderlands without the banter would be a different (worse) game. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) Not for me, personally. The Mass Effect trilogy though.... The least EA can do after killing the franchise. Edited October 31, 2017 by Ronnie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it tickle your fancy bones? It would depend on who else picks it up. Borderlands is very much a co-op game. I played though all of the first one in a group of 4 and it was amazing. I then played most of the second game on my own and, despite it being a better game, I had far less fun. I think there are far more other games that I would like to see ported to the Switch over the Borderlands series. Tropical Freeze and Tokyo Mirage Sessions are both my most wanted ports. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helmsly Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 A The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Explorer’s Edition will also be made available complete with a 100-page explorer’s guide and a two-sided map for $59.99. It’s worth noting the expansion pass is not included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 That looks like new artwork in the Explorers' Guide, wonder if the guide itself has more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedShell Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 15 minutes ago, Hero-of-Time said: They need to justify why I'm going to be paying for the service. Would monthly VC titles with added online play do it? If I remember correctly, that’s what they were planning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly, that’s what they were planning. It depends on the games. Actually, thinking about it...probably not. If the N64 games were on the cards then that would be a different story but from what they've said in the past it looks to only be NES/SNES games. Also, if they don't sort out how you can interact with people online and set up games more easily then making these games online is pretty pointless in the first place. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 (edited) Last we heard their online service was reported to cost $20, much lower than what Sony and Microsoft are charging, so should keep that in mind when comparing to what the others are doing.

I'd still rather pay the same as what the others are charging to have the same kind of setup on the Switch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t take this stance anymore. I’d love to, but after repeated generations of Nintendo letting us down in this space, I can’t help but be pessimistic.
