9/17/2020 Nintendo Direct Partner Mini!! [roundtable]
 
Yeah! Pretty sweet presentation, overall.

Capcom finally showed up! FINALLY, a dedicated MH on Switch!! It looks pretty fun, man. A bit fast, but let's see how they balance it all. All the platforming BotW stuff and the canine mounts seem really cool, if a bit out of place. We'll see how the seamless environments. At least there's no stupid scoutflies! Hoping that they iron out the framerate a bit. Excited!

Stories 2 is promising, too. Much prettier than rise. But it's probably going to have mindless turn-based combat. Bleahhh...

Super-pumped for Hades. It's supposed to AWESOME. I'll grab that today, if it runs well.

And Ori 2 came out of nowhere! It's so soon after the Xbox release! Pumped for that, as well, but I'll grab it on sale, since I haven't started the first. Microsoft is seriously one of the Switch's best third-parties, haha.

Rune Factory 5 looks sweet, and exclusive Disgaea 6 is a good sign of the shifting Japanese third-party tides heading into next generation.

Balan Wonderland looks kind of fun, in the jankiest of ways. And I might actually get Sniper Elite 4. That series cracks me up, because it rewards you for sniping a testicle. With, like, a bullet cam and an X-ray of the impact.

Oh, and Fitness Boxing 2, baby!! Haha, the first one was actually decent, but is there room for a sequel in a post-Ring Fit world...?

Some really good stuff in there today. Monster Hunter looked great! I had completely forgotten about The Long Dark. I've always wanted to check it out. I think 3 or so years ago it got a PS4 port, but I guess it was really buggy, and I never got around to playing it. Will definitely get it on Switch. And PGA 2K21! I haven't played a golf sim since Tiger...2009, maybe? Looking forward to giving it a spin, as I've heard pretty solid things about it.

Haha, I didn't even remember those. I also thought the golf game was already out...

Tiger Woods was amazing on the Gamecube. 2003, maybe? It was like a party golf game. Speaking of which, Party Golf is awesome. Speaking of which, Camelot is probably working on Mario Golf World Tour DX.

Might grab that golf game when it’s on sale. Or just finally buy Golf Story.

If there is a Negative World Monster Hunter Guild, I may dive back into the series.

We had that version as well, and yeah, it was a lot of fun. Tap that Z-button for spin and maximum holes in one!

Finally played Golf Story earlier in the year, and I can't recommend it enough. The humor was very on-point. Very rarely does a video game get me to genuinely laugh at its jokes, but I found myself chuckling consistently through most of the game. The actual golfing is surprisingly fun as well, despite being relatively simple.

Yeah! Remember that target shot mini-game, with simultaneous multiplayer (I think)?

@GameDadGrant
Let's guild it up! The last MH that I played seriously was 3U on... Wii U.
