Switch port?

[Aiodensghost]

I've been thinking recently, what would be like to have Devil Daggers ported to the Nintendo Switch? Who all, besides me, would play it? And would the devs think of it as POSSIBLE?!

aiming would be ♥♥♥♥♥♥ and the game really doesn't seem lucrative enough to be worth a port

the second analog stick would cover aiming, and if DOOM 2016 could do it then another game can to. AS its an Indie game, it may sell well on Switch

Bintr would play it. He'd probably change his Nintendo account name to "I'm using Joycons" and get a >1000 PB

Given what are the libraries that the linux version of the game relies upon it would be a fairly straight forward port to make using the linux version as a starting point

(remeber folks that both the Swtich OS and the PS 4 OS are modified versions of BSD , and the BSD Diablos for anything video games use the same libs as us Penguins do ... )

Soooo Outside of reaching out to Nintendo getting them to agree to send a dev kit signing an NDA , the work to get it running would be something like 2 weeks to a month worth of work at worst ...

Then again that would require the devs to still care about the game and apparently they peaced the freak out long ago ...

Actually, m4tt still bans cheaters from the leaderboards. He's around here somewhere. Lurking.

I wish he would come out of the shadows and make a Switch port

Well then if you're right the only thing that's really needed is getting Nintendo interessted in them porting the game to the Switch and for the reason I explained it would be a real straight forward job .
No really the game relies on so much mutliplatformiing ready juice that it's a two weeks to a full month afair not more ....

Swith is trash and dumb to buy.

Guess I won't get a Swith, then. The Switch looks pretty cool, though.

Just give it Metroid Prime Trilogy style gameplay. Use the motion controls to aim and the left analog stick to move and jump. Turning would still kinda suck, but it's better than the alternative of using the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ analog stick for aiming.

I'm sorry, i was just informed aboyt deadly premonition 2 and it's exclusivity to switch. So it's no longer dumb to buy, just really unnecessary.

There's lots of cool games for Switch that make it worth buying. However, if you don't have yet (like myself), I'd wait until March when the Switch Pro/+/Advanced/etc releases for the stronger hardware so you get the most out of your games.

There's a lot of games if you got N64 on cristmas back when you were 8, but there's almost no good exclusives, most of it's library is just ports of 20-10 years old games and overall it's just a nvidia shield just with mario and without internet browser.
Correction: nvidia shield got Mario run, so it's only browser and other convenience features.

I'd argue nearly all of the Nintendo first party titles are worth getting a Switch for, and that's why I plan on getting one. Breath of the Wild, Smash, Odyssey, Pokemon, Animal Crossing, and a few others are all what really carry the system and help make it great, and there are still more to come.

Well, as i said, if you're a nintendo fanboy, ok, this is system for you, but we all know that smash is only considered fighting for it's numbers of participants. Tell me about bad matchup for donkey kong. Zelda is just another time waster free roam that you can buy like 5 just on the front page of steam, pokemon is the same ♥♥♥♥ over and over like assassin's creed and if remember correctly Animal Crossing is not even out yet so it's out of the discussion. And here it is, my main man Mario, but they will port it 2-3 times to a better next console if you really wanna play it. As i said Deadly premonition 2 and Byonetta is the only worthwhile games there, but who cares, it's your money and your time ofc.
P.S. you can't port devil dagger on any console just cause it's going to be the hell for players to aim after a certain point.
