2020/End of Gen controversial opinions thread

StreamBox One is probably the best description.

While I do think the GameCube's library does get underrated. And I think Metroid Prime is easily better than anything on the Switch atm. I do think the first-party content is debatable and depends on the person.

But what RPGs are you referring to specifically? Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn are arguably the best games in the Fire Emblem franchise. And Tales of Symphonia which I never played so I can't comment too much on that. You can also add Paper Mario TTYD, but that is more of a cult classic IMO.

But the Switch right now has Xenoblade 1 + 2, Three Houses, Dragon Quest 11, YS VIII, and Octopath Traveler. If we include ports we also have the Witcher 3 and Tales of Vesperia. It definitely feels already that the Switch has a much stronger RPG catalog then the GameCube.

90% of those games are ports. What i'm saying is GCN has a more solid library regarding their own franchises over the switch currently.

Octopath <<<< Baiten Kaitos
3 Houses <<< Radiance

Folks are still begging for these games.

good thread

some great points being made

I’m not getting my pockets raped this gen

more than likely I’m only getting one console and sticking with that

and I need to be ultra picky about the games I purchase and not just rack up on mediocre games that waste away in my backlog cuz they cheap/on sale

Not getting the Series X at launxh. Xbox has no games. I missed out this gen being stubborn but plan on copping a PS5 and back logging all the must have PS4 games.

My take....Battle Royale's are gassed and none of them will ever be as relevant as Fortnite, sadly.
