The same with me. I'm most excited about playing an Igavania game in a portable version after about a decade since the last one. Sorry, but other games just don't compare (not that theres much to choose from in the first place).

Amiibo. I'd like to slaughter my enemies with the Master Sword, if at all possible. Or maybe even a shovel...who knows.
Also since shovel knight has a cameo in the game, and there are shovel knight amiibos...aren't amiibos basically confirmed? Lol

This is, of course, all assuming they'll bother with the motion controls in the first place. I'm just wondering about the mere possibility of the specific buttons [normally used for Directional Shards on other console controllers] being left without function IF the developers decide to go with motion controls for Bloodstained's Switch version. Or, as JeffCross stated above, maybe the R-shoulder button could serve a slightly different purpose than for other console controllers (rather than firing the equipped Directional Shard right away; holding down R could enable you to aim Miriam's arm with motion-controls). Oooh...Or motion controls could be used for directional shards??

It blew the Wii U outta the water within the first 3 months, and not only is it packing AAA title after AAA title, it's getting lots of Indie and 3rd party company support.

Ugh, anything but Amiibo functionality. I dont need microtransactions disguised as plastic toys tacked in into this game as well.
Im all for HD Rumble, or anything else for that matter

I just bought the Switch over Christmas and I'm VERY happy with it!
I understand the desire to see a Miriam Amiibo, But I'm dreaming more about how current Amiibo could be used to unlock Nintendo-themed content.
For example...
Maybe using a Mario Amiibo unlocks a Mushroom Pasta Dish. Maybe using a Zelda Amiibo unlocks a Master Sword. Maybe using a Metroid Amiibo unlocks a Metroid familiar.
But I'm probably dreaming a bit much...
And YES, I'd love to see the touchscreen used. 1. For easy menu navigation. 2. For directing Familiars to target specific enemies. 3. A teleportation movement similar to Albus in OoE.
That's all I got.

Somebody say Amiibo again? I have a neat idea, I think. Miriam's MP recharges automatically over time, albeit somewhat slowly. Once per day with the amiibo scan, the game will spawn a toadstool for Miriam to sit on to quickly recharge her MP to full. All this does is essentially quicken the passage of time, and has to be in a safe area because you still have to walk to and sit on it for a few seconds (alternatively, it may not even spawn in battle situations/boss rooms). This would essentially be a Nintendo-themed version of the crystal energy throne that we've seen from the KS images. Now, for the neat specifics:
- Per each 50 MP increment increased, "MP up!" in green text with the classic "1up" sound effect plays
- In one specific part of the castle, a cavernous area with other mushrooms, doing this causes several other mushrooms to sprout on screen to collect, which comically look Mario-ish with different colors and slide back and forth on the foreground. They restore various amounts of HP/MP immediately, but you may get a purple poison one ;p
- If Miriam sits on the toadstool long enough, she will write a Princess Peach-looking letter to another playable character enclosed with a power-up. When that other PC goes through their game, they'll find Miriam's letter to them in "Miriam's Room".
lol initially I just wanted to go with hastening MP recovery, this all sounds too good to pass up now >_>

Cross play with other consoles would be cool. Then I could play on my Vita with Switch owners.

Touch screen controls when playing in handheld mode would be cool. Also, it'd be interesting if they could get Amiibo functionality. Maybe we could get a Switch exclusive Item or maybe it activates an attack that hits all enemies on screen (can only be used once per certain amount of time)?
*Not a fanboy of any system, I selected PS4 for the version I want.

Something happened in the last few weeks... I got engaged! Since I backed this in 2015 until a couple of weeks ago I was standing firmly on getting the spiritual successor of the PS1 game Symphony of the Night on my PS4. But then I started planning my honeymoon and said honeymoon includes long trans-pacific flights which Ill be doing during the tail end of the year.
If this game turns out it comes out near or right before my wedding I might be compelled to switch for the Switch version since Im planning on taking the console with me. Here's hoping we hear about the release date soon-ish.

I voted for amiibo functionality, I think HD rumble and motion controls are a tad pointless and gimmicky. Something like a Miriam amiibo unlocking a special weapon or armor seems more down to earth.

What I want from Switch version is the preservation of quality, I want it to look as good as PC version, in 1080p with 60fps. This is the only thing I want and I think it is the most important. Everything else pales in comparison. The porting team should primarily focus on quality, not on additional fad features.

More than anything I want good performance (framerate) and decent graphics. Obviously I'm not expecting graphical parity with PS4 or PC but I'm hoping it looks good for the hardware. Prioritize resolution over poly count and effects if possible.
Otherwise, Amiibo functionality would be cool. HD rumble would be nice as well. I don't really know how motion controls could work for the game.
As a side note, I just added a Switch physical copy to my order. I tend to go PS4/Switch for games I really love (Doom, DQ Builders, Gust games) and I'm betting I'm going to love this. The game looks better every time they show it.

ReySol This thread is on the assumption that the port is already optimized, apparently if the port is garbage then there is no point in adding ANY other features... but if the port is picture perfect (given full consideration of the hardware limitations)... everything after that, the gimmicks and extra features are what we are talking about here. things only the switch can really give us. Oh and one more thing I would like is cross play with xbox one and PC... it might be a lot to ask for but please, please let that be part of the included features. Angel-Corlux please make it happen.. (don't worry I will not hold you to it... but it will be nice )

purifyweirdshard really I know they said xbox one will get cross play but I never heard anything about the switch getting it... Oh it might be read wrong I meant the switch version getting cross play with both xbox one and PC... the way I wrote it up there it looks like I only wanted cross play between xbox and pc only... I know PS4 does not want cross play but what is stopping the three other systems getting it? I hope we will have it with all three... (yes I know I repeated things a lot lol but I am too lazy to fix it )
