I'm still working through Breath of the Wild and Bye-Bye BoxBoy is still waiting to be played so I won't be picking up anything this week. Kingdom Hearts would have tempted me had there not been reports of bugs in what should be the definitive version. Hopefully they're patched out by the time I'm ready to play it.

Nothing for me. The next game that I'm kinda interested in is Sniper Ghost Warrior 3 at the end of April. It could well be a little shonky but I like the idea of it.

Unless it gets terrible reviews on Switch before release I'll probably pick up Snake Pass.

Was also interested in Has-Been Heroes, but again on Switch and its been delayed a week here. Thimbleweed Park and Rain World will have to wait.

Snake Pass if it reviews decently!

Also Just Cause 3: Gold Edition next week, didn't realise that was a thing and I've needed an excuse to get just cause 3 after missing out on it (despite 2 being one of my favourite games)

LEGO City Undercover is tempting next week too

I might get Snake Pass on Switch to play on the train.

Interested in Snake Pass (mostly for David Wise soundtrack), but may have to wait for a price drop due to funds.

I believe they released digitally on PS4 a month or so ago; although this is the first time for a disc version.

Sounds like Snake Pass has a few issues on Switch (blurry visuals, rumble malfunctions), though hopefully some of this will be fixed. Might be better to get a different version, unless you really want it portable, or want to boost the content on your new hardware (something I totally get).

Me, too - looks most intriguing. Right up my street - a slow, stealth-based SP game. From what I've seen on YT so far it looks competent. The usual slightly iffy graphics from the developer, but promising. Definitely next on my list.

On the other hand Eurogamer says it holds up quite well...

That's a bit more encouraging. The review I linked to was the only one I could find earlier, so it's good to hear better opinions.

Its probably a case of expectations, the Eurogamer article makes it clear there are cutbacks in the game on Switch, it does run at a (much) lower resolution and it details missing graphical features on Switch. It also has a few framerate issues apparently even at 30fps (though nothing too severe)

But Switch is a portable console and PS4 isn't. Of course it doesn't look the same.

Not equating the differences in technology, but I guess it's like comparing PS3 and Vita versions.

The rumble issue is more of a worry, but it's presumably fixable. I haven't encountered that in the XB1 version, but to be honest, they have overdone the rumble. I'd like to turn it off for this game, but there's no option to.
