Yes you're right : it's too quick, like I've said in my last post :) I've played Morrowind many years ago and that was great too ! I understand why you don't like it and I can't really give any counter arguments as I haven't played much of the game ! :)
Maybe when I will play more, this degradation system will bother me but during my 2 hours of play it was not a problem at all ! :)

So, are there any new reviews on the Nintendo Switch from anyone? Did you buy one? Do you like it? Are the games for it good, especially the Zelda game?

I have never gotten a Switch yet, mainly due to price, but tax refund season is coming up soon and I am thinking on things I might like to have. That's a lot of money though. And it doesn't look like the price is going to drop anytime soon. :cry:

Any opinions to help me make up my mind?

It'll be a while before price drops.

As for the Switch, it had a killer 2017. Great lineup of games...Zelda, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Mario Odyssey, Kingdom Battle, Pokken Tournament, Xenoblade, and a lot of great ports like Doom, Wolfenstein and Skyrim. Now I haven't played most of those titles, but they're all well-reviewed, so as far as quality goes, you're not at a lack, just decide what you're into. As far as I'm concerned, the best game on it is Super Mario Odyssey. An absolute masterpiece, and for me was one of my favorite games of 2017, behind Horizon Zero Dawn, Slime Rancher and probably Pokemon Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon. Zelda, unfortunately, turned me off because the weapon durability system was simply not fun. Horizon Zero Dawn did everything Zelda did for me but without that massive, massive fun-killer. I understand if people don't mind it, but honestly, I wonder if it would've flown if it didn't have the Zelda name on it.
Next Pokemon game(s): Pearl
Last finished Pokémon game: Shield
Other games: Skyrim Special Edition (Switch), Spyro Reignited Trilogy (Switch & PS4), Okami (Switch & PS4)
Other gaming goals: completing a Living Pokedex (minus some event Pokes) and going through at least 1 game per generation

Just read a news story where Nintendo has said that Super Smash Brothers is coming to the Nintendo Switch in 2018!

http://www.msn.com/en-us/entertainment/ ... cid=AARDHP

The article says something about this possibly being a whole new game. Guess we will have to wait and see what happens.

And a lot of other things to boot! I’m wondering for the next mainline Pokémon game (or Gen IV remake).

Could we be seeing a new Nintendo Switch sometime in the next year or so?

A friend has had some problems with a special control he got for the Nintendo Switch. It is a control with Link from Zelda's picture on it. Has anyone else had one of these controls and if so have you had any problems with the control? I think they also made some special controls like this with Mario's picture on them.
