Nintendo Switch Chat thread

Just read today that MotoGP 18 will be heading to the Switch shortly after the other platforms launch on June 7th. Not going to lie if it looks half decent I'll give it a go, fingers crossed as MotoGP is heading to the Switch F1 2018 will follow it......

Night Trap might be FMV but remember, it's video that was originally recorded in the 80s for a VHS game, it's hardly going to be 4K quality and file sizes.

Really it's from the 80s? Did not know that.

It was filmed in 1987 originally for a console that was going to use VHS tapes but the console was cancelled so the footage ended up being put into a Mega CD game instead since a lot of editing and programming had already been done.

didn't get any games of the eshop this week.

Tune in same time tomorrow folks for more insights.

Imagine how gooseberry fool a vhs-based console would have been

A few companies tried it out, Poser, with dismal results. The Action Max system had an advert made - "If it were any more real, it wouldn't be a game" .

It wasn't until the DVD player-based games arrived that we could explore the full potential of this idea...

Picked up Rogue Aces last night. It's not a bad way to kill a couple of hours but far from essential. Does get samey way too quickly due to an incredibly limited number of mission types.

Remember those VHS board games that came out in the 90s? I remember having the Star Trek one

I had the atmosfear one. I always felt bad for my parents as they obviously thought I'd love it, but I played it once and my mates were being twats all the way through and ignoring and back chatting what the video guy was telling you to do, so it ruined it and we never played it again (as it would have been the same bunch of friends)

Khufu - the mummmyyyyy.

Exactly the same story here. I had one of the sequels too, never even opened it.

I had all of the Atmosphere packs and have played all of them, It was something me and my friends did quiet a bit. I also had the Star Trek one but only played it once. I thank my auntie for getting me in to atmosphere, I think the fact me and my buddies knew adults played and enjoyed it made is take it seriously and give it a fair crack.

How cool would it be if they brought Atmosphere back on Switch.

Be even better if you all spelled it correctly.

I’m talking about general fun Atmosphere, not the 90’s board game series

Atmosfear: remastered

£49.99 - additional download required

Was the third one the Season of the Witch? I think I only ever played the first 2
