I love that it downloads the games individually it lets you save space instead being forced to to have them all on one save file you can download one at a time
@@michaelmyersplays4992 Except you have to wait for the devs to make the games be compatible with the Steam Deck. Trying to play Berserk The Band of the Hawk on the go, and the game can’t display it properly on the Steam Deck. Also, the Steam Deck has issue with audio bugs where if you’re playing games like God of War 4, Far Cry 4, and some others and if you put the Deck in sleep mode DURING the game, there are random cases with the audio skipping, and I have to restart them to fix the audio. At least with the Switch, all game ports are compatible and the audio has no bugs when putting the Switch in sleep mode with the games open.
They should limit shadow reflection honestly. I had my biggest problems in Hogwarts Legacy when i was traversing through lightly wooded areas and separated shadows passing over the character.
Shadow reflection, light reflection and rain. Because, somehow the rain looks more intense and visible in the switch version, or maybe it's just my eyes 😂
I own basically every console released in the last 10 years but the Switch is just special to me. Playing my favorite games handheld at night before bed with some good headphones can be so immersive. Really been debating picking up the new Steam Deck OLED
I just got the trilogy yesterday. Asylum I have started it. First time playing it and having a real good time with it. Luckily I’m playing these in order to get a feel for the experiences. Since I have too many games in my backlog, by the time I reach Arkham Night, there will be a patch.😂
@@Vegan_Photographs It's not absurd. It's the truth. Please stop talking trash because you have subpar expectations and thr Switch is most likely the only console you own.
@@MarluxiaX2 it’s not, I own others! The game is absolutely playable and so many others also state that! I’ve literally played the game and guess what… I CAN PLAY IT
One bad thing I’ve noticed about the switch version of Arkham City. when you first enter penguins museum there is a little puzzle where when you try to enter a gate will rise and you need to decrypt the thing but first destroy the jammers. Well, the gate was invisible. Bc of game knowledge I knew exactly what was wrong and what to do but I imagine someone who’s never played the game would become very frustrated/confused at this
Yeah Arkham knight is a little choppy but definitely playable. The fact that it works on the switch and looks as good as it does is amazing to me. I didn’t get it to be the definitive versions of the games I got it to play the Arkham games anywhere I want and it does that.
Exactly, all of the idiots stating it’s unplayable are clueless It’s a Nintendo switch playing one of the most powerful games on the PS4, they pushed that hardware to its limits, there are no load times within the whole game and the graphics are amazing. To expect that to be on par on the switch is just utterly ridiculous. The game is absolutely fine
@@Vegan_Photographs Have you played the later batmobile challenges? I've already beaten the game at 120% completion on xbox and the amount of enemies in those challenges is considerable, can you record a video of those later challenges to see the performance?
The collection was $9 on Steam. Paying $60 for this on Switch is indeed ugly. That markup is just brutal. And while I'm only a little into Asylum, reports are the whole trilogy runs like a dream on Steam.
It's really interesting to hear that there was no price incentive to buy the trilogy when you can buy all three games for the same price as the trilogy bundle. Simple marketing strategy would have been to make the bundle to cheaper than the three games combined. Also, that was a very good comparison to the Metroid games, as I have never thought of it like that before. I own the trilogy of my PS5 and Xbox One since they are such great games to play. I have no intention on buy it for the Switch though.
I actually bought it digitally day one and honestly the only real problem for me was the batmobile racing (in the streets particularly) lowering the frame rate a fair bit
What really hurts me, is that the effort and money sank in the Arkham Knight port, it could have been used in an Origins port. Since City is used as base for Origins, it would have been perfect.
What is so hard to grasp about these are about ROCKSTEADY. They're really the Rocksteady trilogy, it was never a Batman collection or an Arkham collection. It was a Rocksteady trilogy, Origins was not made by Rocksteady, Blackgate was not made by Rocksteady.
All these people and media complaining about arkham knight but not complimenting asylum or city. Ive just done a 2 hour stint on knight ,took my switch battery from full to 18% but its playable....of course i hope for patches but if WB had done the kingdom hearts treatment and released a cloud version there would be uproar. Seriously people be happy its even on the switch as it has no right to be 😂
You don’t have those Spider-Man games without Arkham city. It’s the foundation for combat, world building, fast exploration and mass amounts of content
Yeah sorry kid.....You don't have the Arkham games without Spider-man....I know people love to drone on having no clue what they're taking about BUT......Spider-man has been using that style of combat since Spider-man 2 The movie on PS2. Every single Spider-man game has not only used that combat, but has refined that combat with each game since Spider-man 2 the movie, the game. I don't know where people get this delusion that somehow Arkham invented their combat, when they just literally borrowed it from the several Spider-man games that all existed before Arkham Asylum.
Your arguments will hold water when I see a remastered Spider-Man 2 movie game… until then. I’m pretty sure they’ll continue remastering the games that actually mattered.
@@lutherheggs451 yeah Spidey was first, Batman Arkham perfected the battle style mechanics but Arkham was originally a 3d Metroidvania and not so much a freeroamer like Spidey and that is were they differed. But since Arkham City, Batman Arkham became a open world series. But Spidey was first and Spiderman 2 on PS2 is a legendary game, it really exist on its own outside of the movie its based on.

@@Teachermook yes if you look good enough you can get at 40 bucks. Really hope Arkham Knights gets a good patch, but 40 bucks for the 1st two is definitely worth it!
Asylum was always my crown jewel! Out of all 3 it's the one I replayed the most, and funny story, at the time I always hated Metroidvanias, probably mainly cuz I knew them in 2D and I always got stuck and lost in them. But Asylum felt perfect and natural for me. Maybe part of my enjoyment had to do with how much I liked and replayed Batman Vengeance, but I will tell you graphics played a big part. Jokers face and suit details and Killer Croc for example blew my mind soo much enough to get me wanting to replay this game forever. I've already replayed it probably anywhere from more than 20-30 times start to finish and it still feels fresh going back to it and playing it again. There are limits to the difficulty though once you've got it down like that lol, though I haven't quite gotten myself enough into hard mode so there's that. It's a little tricky going without the dodge sense indicator.
@@johnhall8564 Keep your expectations with Knight low and you won't be disappointed and I mean the actual Knight in general, not the switch version. You may not need to but it's for your own good. I believe you'll like it more than City give or take, not the switch version though. I think the graphics and the way they handled the style of this game was incredible. The gameplay has been enhanced. Where it gets iffy is in a certain amount of repetition in some forced sections, but you should have full of surprises throughout the game. But there may be a little missed potential somewhere. So minus any inconsistencies or missed potential, I think that Knight hits hardest. It's a dream come true if you can see it for what it is. You just have to let it be itself more than you expect it to be the way you want. I personally don't think anything can beat Asylum minus gameplay enhancements, and I mean overall as a full package. But I think that Knight cranks it up to 11 to the point where it deserves its crown. I honestly think all 3 of them deserve a crown. I just might have given the jewel on top to Knight if it was more what I wanted.
@@Solid-Lion_Official thanks a lot for putting all that down into words for me…… I’ve already completed Asylum and City a good while ago but I’m starting with Asylum I might skip straight to Knight after that I’m not sure I may play a little of City but I didn’t didn’t enjoy anywhere near as much as Asylum and the challenge wasn’t there either.
@@johnhall8564 You're welcome.That might be ideal since you already finished City in the past at least so long as you remember how it ended, and believe it or not Knight is more directly relevant to Asylum than City. I just recommend you play the Batgirl DLC first if you feel up to it because it's actually a prequel to Asylum. It'll give you a nice taste of the gameplay also before you jump in to the main campaign. It's not long either, you should have it done in about an hour or so.
@@Solid-Lion_Official Thanks for the advice I will indeed play the Batgirl DLC first 👍 I don’t quite remember the ending of City unfortunately I just remember fighting Solomon Grundy at the end……. I just thought they had too many villains in the game personally seemed overkill to me.
I do not get it, can some one please explain me, why this dude never mentions PC? Why? He says "it was released on Xbox360 and PS3", but not PC. What is the reason? he clearly have PC at home to emulate certain games based on the videos he created before.
I passed on this trilogy on my switch and purchased it for my PS five for eight dollars on the PSN store. I have a PlayStation portal and the games were fantastic and look fantastic on it.
@@aloyofnora3224good job I have all 3, still couldn't imagine trying to complete this on the switch. See, switch still sucks and is old tech. Now please excuse me while I complain my calculator can't play red dead 2.
Got the trilogy once again if you say don’t get it ….I get cause I find you’re more a tried and true gamer and I can get past the pixel graphics.I now more and more stay away from online gaming cause the hardcore heads are literally no fun to play against. So I am very much enjoying the opportunity to play games I always hear about not having to have a PS5 but can now play
Disappointed they couldn't fix Knight with this version. I tried PS4 and halfway through it just started force closing all the time. With that said I i feel Knight was always the weakest entry because the Batmobile stuff was awful. We all anticipated finally being able to drive it and it just turns out to be mainly used for puzzles and tank play and I think they did it too much.
WHY CANT WE EVER GET ORIGINS. The number of times these 3 games have been remastered and re-relased it should be a crime that origins isn't ever included.
Thanks for the video, Shawn. Although there will be a lot of folks talking about how the port of Arkham Knight struggles on the switch's aging hardware, I really appreciate that you point out that that it is not like there are not graphically demanding games on the switch. For me, this points to be a bigger issue in gaming for every platform, which is consumer apathy and how that is exploited. If we look at the issue of ports, we tend to think that this is what the developers could do with the system they were programing for. However, this assumption lets a lot of people only concerned about making off the hook. We should be asking is this the best that could be done, and if not, shouldn't we demand that they go back and do it right? Was Metal Gear the best that could be done, or was it an exploitation of player apathy? How about the switch version of MK1? Hogwarts Legacy is fun and all, but really: at 16 GB on an 8 GB card--is that the best that could be done? They couldn't work on textures, lighting, and shadows to put the game on a 16GB card and have consumers download the last 8 GB? Was it not going to get any better than this for Arkham Knight? No. I think the team needed more time and more resources. They got a little more time and this is what the consumers got. WB game division CEOs got a boost for the holidays because they cut development costs, got the game out, and you all bought it whether you complained about or not, because consumer apathy is a MF. he same could be said about the Sony marketing strategy: We did not hit our targets, so let's raise the price on Playstation Plus. We'll loose some subscriptions, but overall people will complain, but they are apathetic, so they'll just put up with being gouged. Consumer apathy is a MF.
You can’t buy individual. People are confused because they are listed separately on the eshop but you only can Purchase the Trilogy. I’m loving the game just because I never had the chance to play them and I only have a Switch. Playing in order and just hoping they update Arkham Knight by the time I get to it which the way I play will probably be in a year
I can't help but feel this was intentionally done so that the publishers would be guaranteed a certain amount of money per sale as selling individually would've meant people are less inclined to buy all 3 especially since Arkha Knight isn't performing well on the system.
For sure! If they were sold individually I would have just picked up Asylum and worked my way through but I have been looking forward to playing these for so long I just figured for me it was worth it. There’s a history of game’s getting patched up on switch so I’m hoping Knight will be one of them but I’m not counting on it
sorry to tell you, you could've waited a bit more and save a bit even buy 2 games because since its Christmas you can buy each Arkham games for 8 euro..
I did a quick run on Arkham Asylum and City and I dig them both... I've actually played Arkham Knight the most extensively and am completely satisfied playing on my Switch. While the Switch is not as powerful as the Playstation and Xbox, it definitely holds it's own with ALL THREE games. As far as i know, it's only available to buy as a bundle. If the Switch is your primary console, or if you prefer handheld, this game is definitely worth the buy. So don't let this critique scare you off if you don't mind paying 60 bucks for a game.... even if it is YEARS OLD and you've been waiting for it to come to this console. My 17 year old son, who has a PS5 (We have all three and Origins on the Xbox series x) actually took over my Switch and LOVES it on the Switch.
Two things I’ve been playing Arkham asylum 59% of the way through going for 100% I’ve noticed minor frame drops and some slowdown when more enemies are on screen but the one huge drop I got was when your leaving botanical gardens and ivys plants block your way out my game went from a solid 30 to straight 3-5 frames. playing in the original switch dunno if the oled and original have any impact of the game tho.
nah OLED does the same, I was saying same thing im like how is the gardens this choppy but city has no issues.. again tho i enjoyed those 2 Knight is God awful.
Adam West - 1966 Michael Keaton - 1989 to 1992 Val Kilmer - 1995 George Clooney - 1997 Christian Bale - 2005 to 2012 Ben Affleck - 2016 to 2017 Robert Pattinson - 2022 to 2023 Robert Patterson - 2024 onwards 🤯
Since I don't own any thing but handhelds, I'm just glad to have the three games on my Switch that I can play anytime. I started playing Arkham City last night and what I played so far I thoroughly enjoyed. Looking forward to playing the other two.
@@TheWESTSIDE1967 It be like that sadly, I skipped Asylum at its initial release so when City hit for 360 I bought it and fell madly in love with the Arkham franchise. Didn't play Asylum until they release return to Arkham. I did something similar with the saints row franchise. Qent backwards and thr more I did the more I appreciated them and wished I was there for the beginning living the hype around those gsmes instead of passing th by for a later date.
I really do not have much complaints with a Nintendo switch because despite it having outdated hardware at this point it is still one heck of a portable handheld system capable of giving people a full console game experience in the palm of the hands with a very vast library of games to explore. Minus away the gaming pc handhelds which have only just appear in the last few years the switch software librabt size and the graphics it produce is still commendable and admirable. Price of a switch is very wallet friendly too.
@@theepicenter4106 oh your in the PH well I'm sorry 😕. So how was the experience? Im planning to buy city or aslyum (since they said knight is ported bad)
@@mercurriusthey sucked. Beat in 25 mins....boring. waste of time. Didn't even have canon lore most of the time. The trilogy is the best thing batman games have ever been.
Nintendo fans are truly the worst. Can’t believe how many times I’ve had to read “this is my first time playing so and so game that’s over 10 years old.” As if you didn’t have the opportunity thousands of times
Something they could have done for the cartridges is put them in a pyramid and you would have had all 3 games in different cartridge and u could have put one in the middle being like the master collection or something
I don't usually judge games from video playback anywhere but knight does look bad. I bought the Bioshock collection on the Switch and I expected the whole 3 games into 1 icon but what can ya do?
For those wanting a handheld portable experience of the Batman Arkham Trilogy then it is best played on Steam Deck OLED. It runs all of these games flawlessly at 60 + fps and medium to high settings.
I don't see a way to buy the games separately? Only the trilogy for $60 USD is available. How are some folks able to get single games? I only want City.
This honestly saddens me. I was really looking forward to the trilogy on Switch. Honestly think I’m gonna pass on it now unless they manage to patch up the performance of Arkham Knight. Developers who are looking to port their games to the Switch should honestly have a meeting with Panic Button, since they managed to port Doom Eternal to the Switch beautifully.
@@codye541 good totally be a possibility, as any drive, whether platter or nand, fills up, the read speeds will fall, in some cases, dramatically, especially on slower storage options as the initial speeds are already lower.
I imagine they focused on City since it's the most popular one. If City didn't run as well as you say it does, there would be more of an uproar compared to now
I love that it downloads the games individually it lets you save space instead being forced to to have them all on one save file you can download one at a time
I suppose that's one benefit of having multiple icons on Switch rather than having to download everything under one icon.

@@Solid-Lion_Official thanks a lot for putting all that down into words for me…… I’ve already completed Asylum and City a good while ago but I’m starting with Asylum I might skip straight to Knight after that I’m not sure I may play a little of City but I didn’t didn’t enjoy anywhere near as much as Asylum and the challenge wasn’t there either.
@@johnhall8564 You're welcome.That might be ideal since you already finished City in the past at least so long as you remember how it ended, and believe it or not Knight is more directly relevant to Asylum than City. I just recommend you play the Batgirl DLC first if you feel up to it because it's actually a prequel to Asylum. It'll give you a nice taste of the gameplay also before you jump in to the main campaign. It's not long either, you should have it done in about an hour or so.
@@Solid-Lion_Official Thanks for the advice I will indeed play the Batgirl DLC first 👍 I don’t quite remember the ending of City unfortunately I just remember fighting Solomon Grundy at the end……. I just thought they had too many villains in the game personally seemed overkill to me.
The amount of DLC that all three of these games got especially City and Knight
😲 Everybody's favorite Nintendo RUclipsr 🎉
Just going to wait for it to go on sale
I just picked up Double Dragon Collection and it made 6 individual slots
@@Ihatevideogames334 so, you're not getting it?
If I buy just Arkham asylum & Arkham city by themselves, do I still get all dlc for those 2 games? Or is that only with the trilogy
Which one should I play first? I want to play them in chronological order…
It goes Batman Arkham Origins, Batman Arkham Origins Blackgate, Batman Arkham Asylum, Batman Arkham City, then Batman Arkham Knight
You actually cannot buy them separately tried buying one and it's not available for purchase
I do not get it, can some one please explain me, why this dude never mentions PC? Why? He says "it was released on Xbox360 and PS3", but not PC. What is the reason? he clearly have PC at home to emulate certain games based on the videos he created before.
He is mainly a console channel. He only mentioned PC for the mods of his favorite wrestling games or games he really likes.
I passed on this trilogy on my switch and purchased it for my PS five for eight dollars on the PSN store. I have a PlayStation portal and the games were fantastic and look fantastic on it.
WiFi says hi😢😂
I want to do the same.
@@aloyofnora3224 What’s hilarious is that even on Wi-Fi, It still runs better than the garbage switch. Lol.
@@pr6046 until it doesn't!!
Good thing I have a ps5 now. I can’t imagine trying to complete that game on the switch.
Good job I have a pc,couldn't imagine trying to play knight at 30fps 1080p😢😢
See,we can all try and shame
@@aloyofnora3224good job nobody cares bud
Now move along sheep
@@aloyofnora3224good job I have all 3, still couldn't imagine trying to complete this on the switch. See, switch still sucks and is old tech. Now please excuse me while I complain my calculator can't play red dead 2.
@@aloyofnora3224 I’m not shaming anyone. I’m just saying that it would be difficult to play that game on the switch.
Got the trilogy once again if you say don’t get it ….I get cause I find you’re more a tried and true gamer and I can get past the pixel graphics.I now more and more stay away from online gaming cause the hardcore heads are literally no fun to play against. So I am very much enjoying the opportunity to play games I always hear about not having to have a PS5 but can now play
How do I even buy just one of the games? The eshop says unavailable on the individual games.
correct. you can't
Disappointed they couldn't fix Knight with this version. I tried PS4 and halfway through it just started force closing all the time.
With that said I i feel Knight was always the weakest entry because the Batmobile stuff was awful. We all anticipated finally being able to drive it and it just turns out to be mainly used for puzzles and tank play and I think they did it too much.
WHY CANT WE EVER GET ORIGINS. The number of times these 3 games have been remastered and re-relased it should be a crime that origins isn't ever included.
Rocksteady didn’t develop Origins, thats the reason I’m assuming at least.
@@sullivans2004 they are both published through WB, so I wouldn't think it'd be that much of an issue
Why cant i buy Arkham City on its own 😢
Thanks for the video, Shawn. Although there will be a lot of folks talking about how the port of Arkham Knight struggles on the switch's aging hardware, I really appreciate that you point out that that it is not like there are not graphically demanding games on the switch. For me, this points to be a bigger issue in gaming for every platform, which is consumer apathy and how that is exploited. If we look at the issue of ports, we tend to think that this is what the developers could do with the system they were programing for. However, this assumption lets a lot of people only concerned about making off the hook. We should be asking is this the best that could be done, and if not, shouldn't we demand that they go back and do it right? Was Metal Gear the best that could be done, or was it an exploitation of player apathy? How about the switch version of MK1? Hogwarts Legacy is fun and all, but really: at 16 GB on an 8 GB card--is that the best that could be done? They couldn't work on textures, lighting, and shadows to put the game on a 16GB card and have consumers download the last 8 GB? Was it not going to get any better than this for Arkham Knight? No. I think the team needed more time and more resources. They got a little more time and this is what the consumers got. WB game division CEOs got a boost for the holidays because they cut development costs, got the game out, and you all bought it whether you complained about or not, because consumer apathy is a MF. he same could be said about the Sony marketing strategy: We did not hit our targets, so let's raise the price on Playstation Plus. We'll loose some subscriptions, but overall people will complain, but they are apathetic, so they'll just put up with being gouged. Consumer apathy is a MF.
You can’t buy individual. People are confused because they are listed separately on the eshop but you only can Purchase the Trilogy.
I’m loving the game just because I never had the chance to play them and I only have a Switch. Playing in order and just hoping they update Arkham Knight by the time I get to it which the way I play will probably be in a year
I can't help but feel this was intentionally done so that the publishers would be guaranteed a certain amount of money per sale as selling individually would've meant people are less inclined to buy all 3 especially since Arkha Knight isn't performing well on the system.
For sure! If they were sold individually I would have just picked up Asylum and worked my way through but I have been looking forward to playing these for so long I just figured for me it was worth it. There’s a history of game’s getting patched up on switch so I’m hoping Knight will be one of them but I’m not counting on it
I love you
You’d be an idiot to buy this collection on switch for 60, when it’s available elsewhere for cheaper. looks and plays far better too.
I just got it a few days ago. No problems. Completely playable. $25. Don't regret it at all...and yes, Arkham City is the best.
sorry to tell you, you could've waited a bit more and save a bit even buy 2 games because since its Christmas you can buy each Arkham games for 8 euro..
Does it actually have ALL THE DLC? Or is it missing the Playstation exclusive Content?
Lets go RGT, best Nintendo youtuber
I buy the trilogy 😊 i Love Batman and i Hope for Patches for Arkham Knight
Can you buy them separately?
Yea
@@JayR7582 No you can't I challenge you to go and see if you can purchase them yourself there's no option to do so
unfortunately not I tried and there's to option to do so
I looked on the eshop and there not available to buy separately the same as GTA trilogy
@@michaelohalloran2441 oh my bad
I did a quick run on Arkham Asylum and City and I dig them both... I've actually played Arkham Knight the most extensively and am completely satisfied playing on my Switch. While the Switch is not as powerful as the Playstation and Xbox, it definitely holds it's own with ALL THREE games. As far as i know, it's only available to buy as a bundle. If the Switch is your primary console, or if you prefer handheld, this game is definitely worth the buy. So don't let this critique scare you off if you don't mind paying 60 bucks for a game.... even if it is YEARS OLD and you've been waiting for it to come to this console. My 17 year old son, who has a PS5 (We have all three and Origins on the Xbox series x) actually took over my Switch and LOVES it on the Switch.
Two things I’ve been playing Arkham asylum 59% of the way through going for 100% I’ve noticed minor frame drops and some slowdown when more enemies are on screen but the one huge drop I got was when your leaving botanical gardens and ivys plants block your way out my game went from a solid 30 to straight 3-5 frames. playing in the original switch dunno if the oled and original have any impact of the game tho.
nah OLED does the same, I was saying same thing im like how is the gardens this choppy but city has no issues.. again tho i enjoyed those 2 Knight is God awful.
The title reminds me of some random my mom would put that would say "La Buena y la mala y la fueo" idk if I spelled it right
Should have been titled, "The good, the great, and the ugly."
Adam West - 1966
Michael Keaton - 1989 to 1992

Since I don't own any thing but handhelds, I'm just glad to have the three games on my Switch that I can play anytime. I started playing Arkham City last night and what I played so far I thoroughly enjoyed. Looking forward to playing the other two.
@@Ihatevideogames334Cool
You should of started in order of Asylum, City then Knight ?
@@TheWESTSIDE1967 It be like that sadly, I skipped Asylum at its initial release so when City hit for 360 I bought it and fell madly in love with the Arkham franchise. Didn't play Asylum until they release return to Arkham. I did something similar with the saints row franchise. Qent backwards and thr more I did the more I appreciated them and wished I was there for the beginning living the hype around those gsmes instead of passing th by for a later date.
@@TheWESTSIDE1967it's better than me playing the whole trilogy in reverse lol
I really do not have much complaints with a Nintendo switch because despite it having outdated hardware at this point it is still one heck of a portable handheld system capable of giving people a full console game experience in the palm of the hands with a very vast library of games to explore.
Minus away the gaming pc handhelds which have only just appear in the last few years the switch software librabt size and the graphics it produce is still commendable and admirable. Price of a switch is very wallet friendly too.
What do you mean purchase them individually? I don't think we can...
well if you look today you can buy each game for 8 euros (in europe)
@_Helmo_ oh.. not available separately in the Philippines
@@theepicenter4106 oh your in the PH well I'm sorry 😕.
So how was the experience? Im planning to buy city or aslyum (since they said knight is ported bad)
@_Helmo_ asylum and city are unbelievably good considering the game is portable!! Knight on the other hand cannot be recommended.
@@theepicenter4106 thk for telling me 🥰
Just bought Arkham city (for €10)
And I love it, Too bad that there's no gyro 😔
its a switch version... 30fps/1080p you cant expect more man.
Can we go back to Batman on the NES! Glory days please baby!
I’d like to see it, or a gargoyles type of remake skin slapped on top of it
I’ve never played that.
@@mercurriusthey sucked. Beat in 25 mins....boring. waste of time. Didn't even have canon lore most of the time. The trilogy is the best thing batman games have ever been.
Batman on the NES was terrible lol
@@Vegeta654 I disagree strongly in my humble opinion.
Nintendo fans are truly the worst. Can’t believe how many times I’ve had to read “this is my first time playing so and so game that’s over 10 years old.” As if you didn’t have the opportunity thousands of times
Something they could have done for the cartridges is put them in a pyramid and you would have had all 3 games in different cartridge and u could have put one in the middle being like the master collection or something
I don't usually judge games from video playback anywhere but knight does look bad. I bought the Bioshock collection on the Switch and I expected the whole 3 games into 1 icon but what can ya do?
I know it's not Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill but they should have just put Arkham origins as the third game
Its more so that the whole studio is different.
The trilogy is Rocksteady while AO, BG and GK are WB Montreal.
I played Arkham city on the Wii U.
Me too and origins
My first thought is Arkham knight gonna look horrible And we thought the pc port was bad at lunch
I logged into the eShop today (12/4), and it looks like these games are not yet available to purchase individually
"near and far between" thank you for that
For those wanting a handheld portable experience of the Batman Arkham Trilogy then it is best played on Steam Deck OLED. It runs all of these games flawlessly at 60 + fps and medium to high settings.
Arkham Knight on Switch, reminds me of Shadow of Mordor on PS3.
I don't see a way to buy the games separately? Only the trilogy for $60 USD is available. How are some folks able to get single games? I only want City.
Well, I was having a good day until you made me think about the Batmobile parts of Arkham Knight. Thanks.
But if i get a physical copy, are the games on there or am i still actually buying all 3 digitally?
This honestly saddens me. I was really looking forward to the trilogy on Switch. Honestly think I’m gonna pass on it now unless they manage to patch up the performance of Arkham Knight. Developers who are looking to port their games to the Switch should honestly have a meeting with Panic Button, since they managed to port Doom Eternal to the Switch beautifully.
Yay RGT85! I was waiting for his review! He is the final word!
Your the best my brother
I like how he calls batman nerdy even tho he has the highest IQ
Me: ***scrolling through youtube feeds****
Son: Daddy, our favorite Nintendo youtuber has released a video.
Do you prefer switch or ps5 for rpg jrpg games?
All the games besides Knight looks fantastic!!
Honestly I think they did the best they could with the switch hardware and give it a patch or 2 game will be one of the best ports on switch
Correct me if I’m wrong but couldn’t the slow loading be to not enough space on the switch itself? I haven’t played this game yet but could that be?
@@codye541 good totally be a possibility, as any drive, whether platter or nand, fills up, the read speeds will fall, in some cases, dramatically, especially on slower storage options as the initial speeds are already lower.
@@What_In_This_World exactly and I can’t see other dudes reply lol
I imagine they focused on City since it's the most popular one. If City didn't run as well as you say it does, there would be more of an uproar compared to now
Do you need internet to play with dlc content for all games cause I don't have internet at all
You need Internet to download 53gb of said games otherwise you only have asylum to natively play straight from the cartridge
I would love to buy the first two separately but I love my physical media so I guess I’m getting all 3 lol
This trilogy should have included Arkham Origins over Arkham Knight.
No way! You're crazy
@@viziobehringer3633 at least for the Switch version. Arkham Knight looks unplayable on Switch.
I’m in a dilemma, should I buy a switch now or just wait for the “switch 2”?
buynow, there are a LOTof great games
No get a Steam Deck or ROG Ally. Switch is beyond fucking old and you can just emulate Nintendo games on Switch or Ally at double the performance.
Wait for switch 2
I bought it on switch and now asylum won’t even load and just stays on a gray screen
Can’t buy them individually
I just wanna replay city in handheld :|
@@Ihatevideogames334 good for you
I don’t
Gotta speak with your wallets when they give you just the buns and not a full sandwich
I guess I will wait until a price drop
Thank you RGT85 ❣️
