Astroknot Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 I'm just asking if a Nintendo Switch version of DST/DS Mega pack can happen in the future, if so I definitely want to get one. That's all. (Also @ImDaMisterL I did not know whether or not to put this here or in PS4 general discussion, move this thread if you think it belongs there.)

Starlogy Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Switch just came out like a week ago. They probably haven't thought about it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astroknot Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 I'm only asking if its possible, cause I don't know whether or not Nintendo has rules about text chat and what not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's likely possible. I'm sure all Klei would need to do is just use some kind of chat filter and Nintendo wouldn't care much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrxarous Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Though I wonder how they would do cosmetics on the switch. It might be like PS4 and it is just received and not bought. Though I wouldn't mind playing SW on the Switch. That would be amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astroknot Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 So text chat should hopefully not get in the way of a potential Switch release? (I'll try tagging a dev for information hmm lets see uh here we go!: @JoeW) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, text chat shouldn't be an issue at all as long as there's some kind of filter. The Monster Hunter games on the 3DS have text chat. I'm sure there's other examples of text chat on Nintendo platforms too, but that's all that comes to mind right now. Just because Nintendo acts like an overprotective parent and restricts online communication for their games doesn't mean everyone else has to as well.

Starlogy Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Text chat without a keyboard sounds terrible just thinking about it, lol... I would assume in addition to text chat, you could use pre-defined strings to quickly and effectively communicate. (Like you're able to say "I need food!" or "I need help!" with the press of a button. Having them vary depending on character would be pretty cool, actually.)

Astroknot Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 I actually don't have Monster Hunter so I didn't know it had text chat, nice to know. Pre-defined phrases sounds like something that could be useful for all versions of the game as it would allow for quick communication in a stressful situation. Anyway I'm gonna hope that a Switch version gets announced at E3 this year like the Wii U version of DS RoG. Thanks for all the replys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's touch-screen, easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you would not exactly have to use the built in keyboard . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrxarous Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 It is up to the game not the hardware to support the usb keyboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krakin on Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Btw I think they'll make a Nintendo Switch edition. They did it for Wii U, and so probably (I said probably, not 100%) for Switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
