I wonder if the PC and western Switch versions will keep the Sistermon Noir intact or remove it entirely like with the western PS4 version.

 

[RobotXTaisen]

Oh nice!

 

[Fake]

Its a great game for mobile. Lets see if runs well on NS.

 

[zenspider]

Oooh! I'm not even a Digimon fan in particular, but I played this to death on both PS4 and Vita. A great pickup for any JRPG fan who hasn't played it yet, and it's Perfect For Switch TM.

I would grab the Switch collection but I have hundreds of hours into the games on PS4 and don’t feel like a retread. I’d done it on an Xbox version to show support for Japanese games on the platform though.

Switch will really kick the series into popularity though. I feel like the hardcore Nintenho’s will eat this up. I’ve really enjoyed the new generation of Digimon games.

This game is freaking great. Great looking Digimon models and tons of Digimons to get and evolve to. The game even comes with farms so you can over your digitalized mons.

Best thing is once you beat the game, you can carry all your digimons to a new game +. Theres also 3 save slots, so no worry about trashmon limitations.

Like Dragon Quest, this is another great game that if no one has played yet I suggest going for it.

As a side note I wonder how much of visuals this game gonna cut to fit on Switch. It visually destroys Pokemon in terms of visuals and models.

Comparing to pokemon isn't saying much, since that's one of the worst looking switch exclusives

Well...very true.

But still visually pleasing.

 

[Shaqazooloo]

Story trailer looked interesting, Might check it out since October doesn't look too busy for now.

 

[Conan-san]

Can't wait for the Twerpdom to not buy this and prove everything I feel about them to be true.

 

[Fbh]

This is cool.
I wanted to play the first one (as the story sounds more interesting) but it got delisted from PSN.

So I'll probably pick this one up. PC sounds tempting but because of the style it might be a better fit for the Switch

 

[DeliciousDoc]

Another noteworthy Japanese game for pc. Everyday is a great surprise recently but my wallet is hurting bad.

It will most likely look better than the PS Vita versions and they both look great. I don’t see why it can’t look as good as on PS4 honestly. There’s no open areas or etc to tax the engine. Honestly, I wouldn’t be shocked to see it come in at 1080p docked as well.

Edit: Maybe if this takes off on Switch a competitive community can grow. I had a lot of fun in battles for the two months or so the first two games lasted after launch.
