Not gonna lie. With the likes of Sonic Mania (classic 2D Sonic gaming -- Summer), Mario Odyssey (Christmas) and Sonic Forces (Christmas.. but I doubt I'll get it on Christmas 'cause I'll be playing Mario Odyssey) I've lost the interest I had for Yooka-Laylee after seeing it's a bit underwhelming. I might get it if it's decently priced or something.

I understand. I don't know about this one either since I enjoyed Banjo Kazooie and Banjo Tooie in the past for the Nintendo 64. :unsure:

The Switch version should have patches and updates, so it might be the definitive version. Now Playtonic is focused on the Switch version development only (plus the bug fixes for all systems), so who knows they may change some things?
Yeah true! Playtonic have made it quite clear that they are putting the very best version into the Switch and that's why it hasn't been released with the rest yet they are big Ninti fans longtime "apparently" because of banjo etc.. so I would expect a very different better version than Xbox, PS & PC etc.. that's why they have just shoved those out!

it won't make any difference the gameplay will still be the same and it is BAD
And being on the Switch will probably be even worse, that is, in terms of perfomance. Playtonic's not going to change the gameplay of YL exclusively for the Switch now.

The Watch Dogs of Switch. :P

Delay a game six months after and you can play it on the system but it's not a very good port. lol

While we don't know how the port will run (no footage exists), this is the same stupid-ass decision to delay it as Ubisoft would do. :rolleyes:

Snake Pass runs at an acceptable performance on the Switch so seeing this is a tad more demanding game, my hopes for being a good port just don't exist. Guess I'll just eventually get it on PS4 in a couple years.

Snake Pass was ported in a week, and they may have not spent any more time optimizing it. Zelda runs great and it's a really big game, and the developers have admitted it is an unoptimized port also

True, but they could release patches to make it better.


Eh... it runs fine. We'll get a great port of BotW when the "Switch 2" is released.
They could've patched Snake Pass but they haven't. And considering that Zelda's only note able glitches are slowdowns and a hilarious physics engine, it runs great. A lot better than the game where your character has his eyeballs and dentures sticking out

What's so bad? I've nearly 100% completed it. It filled everything I've been needing for years. Then again I'm not 12 and have an appreciation for a genre that seems to have turned into "platformers=trash".

The levels are very full of things to do, the writing is exactly how I remember it being from the games they used to make. The music is also amazing, though I've had a love for Grant Kirkhope's compositions for years as well. Honestly I feel they did a good job reviving a genre that apparently is "boring" these days.

Oh and P.S. any review that says the casino level is empty is full of shit. It's a different style of level, but is definitely not empty.

If you liked banjo kazooie, you should like this game, Simply put. I've dumped about 25+ hours in. This game has nostalgia written all over it. The fact that it is being ported to practically everything is all the better. It's cheaper than other games of its caliber. With it on switch, the portability is all the better. Not Sure why its getting bashed so much.
