Chicago White Sox 9,365 Posted October 20, 2016 Not sure if there are a ton of Nintendo fans on this board, but there are some serious rumors that NX will be unveiled tomorrow. Very interested to see if the hybrid rumors turn out to be true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chicago White Sox 9,365 Posted October 20, 2016 (edited) And there's the official confirmation from Nintendo: Nintendo of America @NintendoAmerica Be among the first to discover #NX. Watch the Preview Trailer at 7am PT/10am ET! Edited October 20, 2016 by Chicago White Sox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shysocks 0 Posted October 20, 2016 https://twitter.com/NintendoAmerica/status/...103913328709632 Nintendo NX officially revealed as Nintendo Switch. The flexibility looks cool, there are a bunch of different ways you can take it on the road and play but it looks like it would be pretty awkward using those tiny, chintzy-looking controllers. I haven't purchased any Nintendo hardware since the Gamecube and I doubt this is gonna reel me in. I'm not into the gimmicks. I just wanna sit on my couch with a controller. Seems like a good idea for them to unite their (very successful) mobile and their (not-so-successful) home console sides, though. I'm sure it appeals to plenty of people out there. The trailer did show a new Mario game for a second there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chicago White Sox 9,365 Posted October 20, 2016 I'll be honest, I think the Switch looks incredible. While most rumors were spot on, it blew away my expectations. As long as they deliver on the games, I think this system can bring them back after the Wii U fiasco. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My only concern is how long each turn will take to laod when you get to the later stages. But Ill get it cause I think Ive owned every CIV since the SNES version.

It's not clicking "Next Turn" endlessly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's just the nature of the beast and they know it. When you end up with 30 different units and you gotta do something with them each turn, the game moves along at a snails pace. I'll get this, like i've gotten every other one. The only Civ game I didn't buy was the console/phone version and the most recent space version of civ 5.

I'm not talking about heavy unit/city maintenance, but when you're not going Domination, and the midgame consists solely of hitting "Next Turn" over and over and over while you wait for Research to complete or Culture to accumulate. Supposedly the game encourages you to be more active. I guess we'll have to see. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iWiN4PreP 845 Posted October 20, 2016 Hi guys, I have a question relating to Fallout 4 on xbox one. I *might* be interested in buying Fallout 4 for Xbox One now that I have an xbox. I hear that it may/has come with a download to Fallout 3. I am wondering if all new games of Fallout 4 for Xbox one come with this download or if I have to order it a special way (on Microsoft store??) or if the promotion no longer applies. My guess, from the internet, is that the promotion no longer applies, but I'm seeing mixed answers. Anyone have knowledge about this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChiliIrishHammock24 819 Posted October 20, 2016 No one talking about RDR2? Graphics were awesome, timeperiod looks AFTER RDR1, f*** I can't wait to jump back in to that world.

I get it's five years old, but it's still a large open-world game people are familiar with. That's an experience doesn't really exist today on a mobile platform and is a huge selling point for Switch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iWiN4PreP 845 Posted October 21, 2016 Must say -- The halo experience on MCC has been AWESOME. The Xbox one has been great the first couple of days Ive had it. The whole Gold games for free is amazing too. Downloaded the baseball game from there, not bad. (Also saw that they had WWE 2k16 for free a while back, amazing!) Rocket league was only $15.00 for me due to gold membership as well. This s*** is awesome! But more specifically, on the Halo MCC collection, I have not played multiplayer with a group, but as an individual this has been an amazingly nostalgic performance! I'm able to get games pretty quickly in Big Team Battle and Halo 3 set ups. I played a Halo 1 CTF game and man that was different! Greatness. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
