I only indicated that TW3 is not the only game with that cartridge in a worldwide release
In addition, apparently, Bayonetta 3 seems to use 32GB cartridges.
There is nothing to indicate that the physical editions will have mandatory downloads.Oh no... I can't see them using a 32GB one for the USA.
This is going to stress me out a bit until release lol.Strange as the game shows 16GB on Nintendo's site? Might be a hair too large for a 16GB cart (since the actual cart size is a bit smaller than advertised as is with any storage):
Bayonetta™ 3 for Nintendo Switch - Nintendo Official Site
Bayonetta struts through multiple locations in an all-new, over-the-top climax action game. Sporting a wicked new ensemble and somehow familiar pigtails, the titular Umbra Witch must face a mysterious evil using her signature guns and time-slowing Witch …www.nintendo.com
Dunno why they didn't just trim the fat ever slightly to fit on a 16GB cart then.

Nintendo would splurge on the larger cart for their own gamesOh no... I can't see them using a 32GB one for the USA.
should be illegal to make games that are like a 100GBbecause most platforms have plenty of storage space for games, so it is not a priority to optimize the size of these in their development
You have it already?
If not Ni No Kuni then definitely Archaic Sealed HeatNi no Nuni on DS was 2GB IIRC?
So what is the combat and gameplay loop like in this game? Looks interesting but always hard for me with action rpgs to nail down if I think I'll like the game or not.
Isn't Pokemon black 2 on a 512 megabyte 2 gigabit card?If not Ni No Kuni then definitely Archaic Sealed Heat
Sweet, think I'll try it. Bayonetta is another series I want to get in to. Which would you say is better, nier or bayo?The core combat is similar to that of Bayonetta, with plenty of dodging/parries and simple light/heavy combos, but much more forgiving. Movement is fast, with a speedy run, double jumps, gliding, and additional traversal options. Nier Automata also changes camera angles and gameplay modes every so often so there are side-scrolling and shmup segments.
I find it very enjoyable to play. My main gameplay criticism is that the RPG/stat elements don't add to the game and in fact make the easy and hard difficulties ridiculous (easy makes it virtually impossible to lose whereas on hard you can be doing fine only to get killed in one or two hits in some situations). Normal is really the only way to play.
Depends on what you're looking for. Even though they are both action games developed by PG, they're completely opposite in terms of their main focus.Sweet, think I'll try it. Bayonetta is another series I want to get in to. Which would you say is better, nier or bayo?
wtf is wrong with peopleTho the amount of people mad about it being a good port is frustrating to see. Kinda wish people would accept some like to certain games on a certain console. Let people be happy
Nah. It’s not that Serious. Just a few amount of folks, small noise.wtf is wrong with people
I like this description, it pretty much divides most of the games I love into two campsTo put it another way: Automata is the kind of game people write essays and lore bibles about, while Bayonetta is the kind of game that makes people want to share that one sick combo they did.
Isn’t the Steam version also infamously really bad?Good reviews scores. Too bad it runs better on a $500 impossible to buy portable but not portable system. Useless port.
Which is odd as wasn't that (or the XBO version) by QLOC? They're some of the best port teams in town (or is it around?).Isn’t the Steam version also infamously really bad?
QLOC did the PC Gamepass / Windows Store version iirc. They reported it basically and that one's supposed to be great.Which is odd as wasn't that (or the XBO version) by QLOC? They're some of the best port teams in town (or is it around?).
The new (updated) one is muuuch better than what was on Steam between 2017-2021. It's the updated GamePass/Windows Store version. The OG Automata Steam release was a clusterfuck though, yeah.Isn’t the Steam version also infamously really bad?
PG never do PC ports to my knowledge, they must've really fumbled the ball on their first attempt if that's the case.Maybe SE should've given KH to Virtuos.

I think Platinum did the Steam port inhouse?
apparently the global illumination setting is overtuned. turning it down helps performance a lotIsn’t the Steam version also infamously really bad?
Well. Nice to see a highly wanted game get a really good port.

steam deck owners when they discover that switch owners exist (they didn't think they existed)Good reviews scores. Too bad it runs better on a $500 impossible to buy portable but not portable system. Useless port.
It's just amazing we are doing this song and dance again with a Nintendo handheld vs a more powerful competitor. People keep showing their ass in regards to underestimating the appeal of a Nintendo handheld despite more powerful alternatives existing.steam deck owners when they discover that switch owners exist (they didn't think they existed)
We’ve seen this song and dance since the Gameboy. There’s a reason nintendo is the only one standing and still a household nameIt's just amazing we are doing this song and dance again with a Nintendo handheld vs a more powerful competitor. People keep showing their ass in regards to underestimating the appeal of a Nintendo handheld despite more powerful alternatives existing.
what does it even mean? I can at least get not wanting a game get a port on the switch as some sick console war propaganda against the switch, but being mad that a port is good is just insane. Why would they even care?Well. Nice to see a highly wanted game get a really good port.

Guys I just need a confirmation that we can access the dlc costumes right from the start (Always hated 2B silly outfit)
Is there any info on that?
You couldn't in the other version and it was so stupid. No idea why Japanese devs still thinks unlocking cool outfits after you 90% completed the game is great idea. Worse, Inti creates sold me a DLC character which I could only access after beating the game on the hardest challenge/difficulty. (Dragon Marked 4 Death)
So awesome to hear (and see) that's a quality port!
As someone who doesn't have a PS4/5 or an Xbox One/Series, and isn't into PC gaming, ports like are a wonderful thing. I was able to experience the likes of Doom 2016/Eternal, Witcher 3, Hellblade, and many more this way, and Nier looks to be yet another great addition.
Yeah, they may not look or perform on par with stronger hardware, but they don't need to, just like PS4 games never needed to look as good as the maxed out PC version. So long as the core game is still fun to play, that's what matters.
Bring on Thursday!
Whoa, didn't think I'd meet a fellow DM4D player over hereBased on the description in the eshop it seems it's only gated by the story, which makes sense in the context of the game as there is one point where you can start to access item shops, so you won't have to wait that much to use them. (Also which character from DM4D?? IIRC you get the oracle after getting any ending, not tied to difficulty and the bandit needed to finish the quests in the dlc, but again is not locked to any difficulty)
Totally this, it's still a good way to experience this game and if you keep your expectations, as long as you have fun it's what matters.
The Switch is lowkey one of the best PlatinumGames machines around. Bayo 1 & 2 (& 3), Astral Chain, W101, Sol Cresta and now Nier. A big chunk of ‘good’ Platinum; arguably just missing Vanquish, Metal Gear Rising, and coughStarFoxZerocough.After you all experience the glory of Nier you’ll all have to experience the glory of Astral Chain.
Weirdest thing is that Rising was ported to the Shield TV by NvidiaThe Switch is lowkey one of the best PlatinumGames machines around. Bayo 1 & 2 (& 3), Astral Chain, W101, Sol Cresta and now Nier.

Maybe after their Valve ports dry up Lightspeed will strike a deal with Konami?Weirdest thing is that Rising was ported to the Shield TV by Nvidia
Metal Gear Solid RTX is a money printerMaybe after their Valve ports dry up Lightspeed will strike a deal with Konami?
I'm actually also wondering if Lightspeed can/will use their experience from the Portal Switch ports to port Titanfall 2 over (which runs on the same Source engine), but Panic Button might be more fitting as they did Apex Legends and supposedly content from those games are also coming to it? But I'm at a toss up on whether Lightspeed or Panic Button could do the better port as the Portal ports are seemingly THAT good.Maybe after their Valve ports dry up Lightspeed will strike a deal with Konami?
How the fuck we don't have Vanquish on Switch yet is beyond me. I'm sure Armature (who did it on PS4 and such) could do it perfectly fine, but honestly I'd rather get the Bayo 1 and 2 Switch team to do it. They did after all just add new subtitles to said ports the other day, so they seemingly can be brought back if needed? However, those were clearly based on their Wii U versions (including Bayo 1), and since Vanquish didn't get a Wii U port, then it wouldn't be as simple maybe.The Switch is lowkey one of the best PlatinumGames machines around.
