I love RTS games and would love to see Command and Conquer get a remaster that comes to the Nintendo Switch. Any RTS fans among you, what game would you like to see on Switch? A big thanks to CP for this excellent review I hope I did ok with the editing. Also, thanks to Jace Glover who helped massively with footage - what a SwitchUp family we have here! (Mark)
What about the new Settlers game that is being developed by BlueByte with Ubisoft? It looks like a return to the old style of the first 4 games but built using Snowdrop. It's looking great already and I hope they take a leaf out of Civ6's book and make a Switch port! Settlers on the go would be amazing
Another boss was planned for Egypt. A kind of scorpion-looking machine that could dig through the earth. You can see this boss on the official pictures of X-Morph Defense, there are also pictures of the map with the places where the scorpion comes out or digs in again, and the in-game model of the boss. Unfortunately they could no longer program it into the game due to time constraints, But they still want to use the boss in the future (maybe Riftbreaker or in X-Morph Defense 2?)
I absolutely loved star craft 64 one of my favorite games on the 64 it was a well done port of the game and played better then most rts that even came out later on a controller
An Epic Game and Epic N64 Port. I see I'm not the only one who wishes to play StarCraft on the Switch. We could only wish... I also love Battlezone: Rise Of The Black Dogs on the N64, an underrated gem for me.
primo game capturing, editing and narration! Thank for making my words come alive Jace, Mark, and Glen! I nailed noticing Jigsaw XMorph , but thank you for putting the puppet up in editing ahahaha that was awesome!
I haven’t played this yet, but I feel like the game would be slightly cooler if the x-fighter would transform into a mech so you can destroy on foot(or air as well being a mech).
I Just started playing (bought it 1 year ago 😂) and I am so addicted! Great Game for me (Job, Kids...). Great Reviews I love your channel. I watch every Video- Love my Switch Lite, Love Switch Up 💕 greetings from Germany
And this is why I subscribed. Another nice review guys, excellent work. I'm happy to know this is a good game. I was really looking forward to it comeing out.
See I think the same thing, even though I don't think this is the type of game for me, it *does* look really fun and everything. I don't see how there are so many people nowadays saying 'oh the Switch sucks, no good games, blah blah blah' like Jesus shut up already. If you don't like the games being released play a different system or something, I mean I have a One X and a Ps4 Slim to play on as well, so I'm gucci lol.
I am a huge rts fan warhammer dawn of war or age of empires love those games the destruction in this game looks pretty good to me I was noticing enemy ships falling down and blowing up little house plus the way the bigger buildings collapse into chunky blocks is just somehow super satisfying to me. If this game runs decent in handheld mode I can easily see this as a buy it's somethings unique with a cool amount of action and strategy mixed. Nice review guys keep up the great work!!
Age of Empires is awesome. Can't see it ever coming over though as it's Microsoft although I will probably get the 4th one when it comes out, will have to dust off the PC for that though
Dawn of War 1 with all the DLC and multitude of Mods was amazing. Didn't enjoy 2 as much and never bought 3. The first one though was intense and a huge step forward for RTS games in my opinion, shame 2 brought the scale down as it looked lovely
I thought that I would leave a comment here since the Complete Bundle is on sale for $18 USD on the eShop (Summer 2019 Sale). Thank you for the review and I’m purchasing the game after watching all of the trailers on the Shop (the videos for the main game and bundled DLCs).
Definitely interested and likely will buy one day. Would have bought immediately had it included the DLC in the $20 base price. I'll add it the old buy on sale list.
Excellent team effort to get this one up Mark, Jace and CP. Would love to see some good old school rts' show up on the Switch. I wouldn't mind seeing Blizzard go after some good press and get Starcraft over on our tiny wonder
@@SwitchUpYt no complaints here. Finished off another week in the sandbox without losing my mind so I count that as a win. Hope all as well in your time zone.
Like the Transformers game that was based on the first Transformers movie that lets you pick which side you wanna play as Decepticon or Autobots and thanks to that your able to see things from both perspectives.
@@SwitchUpYt Well, played 3.5 hrs last night, game rocks! It's a solid A+ for me! I haven't bought any of the DLC yet but will down the road after I finish all initial play throughs.
Have you guys tried swords and soldiers? I play a moba called awesomenauts on xbox but the same devs made swords and soldiers that's exclusive to switch. It's a great 2d rts :)
Yeah tried the Switch beta just for the fun of it but damn that’s not looking good next to mine choice of platform (pc) for that game. But have to say the gameplay and handeling survived even on handheld mode.
Is this worth getting now, as its always dropped to around £5.50(I think) for the complete collection, I don't normally play tower style defense games, but after watching your review, it's peeked my interest. Its been on my wishlist since January last year, but never bothered to pick it up.
10/04/2019 - - on sale for $9.99 Saw your awesome review... great job! People on the comment section seem to like it. Purchased! Thanks for your review!
This game looks really cool...reminds me of space invaders anniversary on Wii where you play as the enemy...Love that game...would love to see it released on switch😎👍
Should I pick up this game? Always check SwitchUp first! Thanks gag! The voiceover audio is a little off, think you were a little close to the mic, or need a new one. Thanks again!
I think the Switch could handle it but they probably won't put the effort it would take to tweak and optimise it. Unless the game does really well. (Mark)
Been playing a lot of graceful explosion machine lately...super awesome game...got another idea for a video called...The games that time forgot...basically for new switch owners who may not know about some early classics on switch...graceful explosion machine would be on there as well as snake pass,blaster master zero,Thumper and retro city rampage etc...😎👍
I’ve never played a tower defense game but I love my shoot em ups and I’ve been watching this one with great interest. My only issue was how much would having to worry about building towers and stuff interrupt my shmup? Lol You pretty much know my style Mark, what do you think? I’d have to get the full version i imagine. Thanks man, great video as always.
@@SwitchUpYt I'm playing through them again at the moment. Maybe EA will Remaster them for Switch at some point. With all the dlc, because that stuff is far more expensive than the actual games now. Keep up the good work.
Okay, what controller are you using??? X button could be in any of 3 places. Your channel is called Switch Up, so I would assume you're using a switch controller, but you use the term "left bumper", which is an x box controller, on ps4 its L1, and on Switch its simply L.
I like the look of this one but that day 1 DLC is rather annoying. There seems to have been a good while without a decent tower defense game and now they seem to be coming back, which is great, but which one to go for. It was absolutely going to be this one until I saw that DLC! I think I'll wait for another sale. Great review though
@@SwitchUpYt I know but I've just bought Moonlighter! Although I may be getting a promotion at work soon, fingers crossed. At moment can't quite justify another game this month. Who knows though, I do like the look of it!
@@SwitchUpYt It's a great little game. I'm really enjoying it. Kinda wish I'd bought the physical version but I do find I play the downloaded games more as I have to swap the cartridge! I've just played my very first game of Smite..... God's I suck at that! I'm ok at Paladins and Arena of Valor so thought I may be ok at Smite but it's not the case. I'll give it another few goes as I can't get any worse!
The game originally came for the PC. The DLCs appeared later. Since they have ported the game for the switch, there is no reason not to port the DLCs as well. And why should Exor give up the money for the DLCs? Especially considering that the game costs 20 €, instead of 60-70 €. If the game is fun, the DLCs can catch up later. After all, these were also no free bonus for PC players.
RTS? since when did TD games became RTS? is this like that made up genre called... metrovania where u try to label other genres with ur own made up ones?
How can u score sound out of 20 and gameplay out of 20, surely gameplay is far more important so the score doesn't make sense. Oh and keep the fact that SAW was your favourite film series. You lost all credibility.
Lol Crag - we have followed this system since we started and it works surprisingly well. Obviously it may mean our percentages are different to some others - but our audience knows what it’s getting. This review was from Chicken Perm who writes for us - I feel your pain regarding the SAW thing hahaha. Mark
This game is absolute sh*t Honestly, is the tipe of game that does not allow u to create ot do anything u do t play u just do what the game have designed ypu to do

SwitchUp Starcraft and C&C for me, would love to see them hit a console again.
C and C Is in the works but we don't know what consoles yet

@@Morlock5K Yeah I'd be ALL over that brother!
@@SwitchUpYt
It looks great doesn't it. I loved the first 4 settlers games, but hated 5 and couldn't get into 6 or 7
X-Morph:Defense Complete Edition is just $2.99us rn, seems like a must at that rate!
Another boss was planned for Egypt.
A kind of scorpion-looking machine that could dig through the earth. You can see this boss on the official pictures of X-Morph Defense, there are also pictures of the map with the places where the scorpion comes out or digs in again, and the in-game model of the boss.

But they still want to use the boss in the future (maybe Riftbreaker or in X-Morph Defense 2?)
I'm one of the few people that own and really enjoy the wierdly good port of the original StarCraft on N64. That would be great to have on the switch.
Oh hell yes!
J Upiter indeed. They did Diablo so here's hope for Starcraft
I absolutely loved star craft 64 one of my favorite games on the 64 it was a well done port of the game and played better then most rts that even came out later on a controller
An Epic Game and Epic N64 Port. I see I'm not the only one who wishes to play StarCraft on the Switch. We could only wish... I also love Battlezone: Rise Of The Black Dogs on the N64, an underrated gem for me.
If you're watching this in May 2020, the complete edition is on sale for $7.49 US.
Rob Cartwright I literally came here after seeing this for sale in the eshop. After seeing the review and at that price, I’m sold!
Had it not been for current devs chasing MOBA money, we could've witness an actual resurgence of RTS.
I agree with you there. There is some talk about a command and conquer remake coming! (Mark)
@@SwitchUpYt Knowing EA, they keep killing their own franchise.
Hope to see more RTS in the future.
For sure
I've loved tower defense games for years, cool to see a new and unique one on Switch.
Exactly that Jimmy, they are so addictive
primo game capturing, editing and narration! Thank for making my words come alive Jace, Mark, and Glen! I nailed noticing Jigsaw XMorph , but thank you for putting the puppet up in editing ahahaha that was awesome!
Hahaha that was a nice spot lol, I'd never have noticed! Great write up! (Mark)
Nice review buddy...this game looks pretty fun actually 👍
Chicken Perms reviews are great!
I haven’t played this yet, but I feel like the game would be slightly cooler if the x-fighter would transform into a mech so you can destroy on foot(or air as well being a mech).
key words, you haven't played it yet
If you want to try it its free on GOG for PC now but not for very long. I got it yesterday.
If you're interested, you might want to check out AirMech. That said, I have a feeling you've already played that game I mentioned.
Attention seeker

great review!
i've been waiting for good tower defense games on swithc
Yes, this is a really cool game for sure! (Mark)
This is not a RTS
this is.RTT OR tower defence
Its more like an tower/castle defense instead of rts mate
Crazy. I’ve never even seen nor heard of this and it looks freaking awesome!! Just got it got $6 for the complete edition.
You can buy it now for 3,99 in the E-shop...!
Definitely interested and likely will buy one day. Would have bought immediately had it included the DLC in the $20 base price. I'll add it the old buy on sale list.
Cool- sounds like a plan! (Mark, k

Excellent review! 21k! :)
BTW: It does sound like jigsaw!! damn you!!! I can't unhear it now XD
Hahaha I had to stick a bit of him in the video lol
7:34 wanna play a little _VIDEO_ game??
Local Co-Op sounds like a slam dunk. Be smart to bring over! Solid review.
Audio gets 20/20
yeah all the other platform version have a couch co-op but this Switch one does not even have that, just solo play
@@ChickenPerm Just odd. Probably be a $5 DLC later ... 👀😯

@@SwitchUpYt no complaints here. Finished off another week in the sandbox without losing my mind so I count that as a win. Hope all as well in your time zone.
StarCraft or Warcraft would be amazing, Warcraft 3HD maybe
This game so gorgeous It will be in my radar for sure thanks for the review
No worries at all my friend!
awesome video, great review.
And HAPPY RETIREMENT REGGIE!
and i cant believe i'm saying this but..
WELCOME Mr BOWSER !
You cant make this up !
Hahaha it's hilarious isn't it!! We're really starting to see some channel traction now mate! We might meet this Mr Bowser one day!
@@SwitchUpYt mate , that would be amazing. we might even have to arrange an e3 trip. i never been always wanted to go.
If only they had kept the split screen feature...
Yeah it's a shame for sure! (Mark)
It will be free for PS+ april 2021 region 3
Like the Transformers game that was based on the first Transformers movie that lets you pick which side you wanna play as Decepticon or Autobots and thanks to that your able to see things from both perspectives.
Just curious, I know they're not totally similar, but which do you like more? Sky Force 1 & 2 or this ? I really like the Sky Force series...
They are quite different games really. Do you like strategies?
@@SwitchUpYt Yes sir, Xmorph looks really good to me...
@@SwitchUpYt Well, played 3.5 hrs last night, game rocks! It's a solid A+ for me! I haven't bought any of the DLC yet but will down the road after I finish all initial play throughs.
Saw this in my GOG library and wondered if it was worth booting up. Looks like it is.
Nice video! I spent far too many hours playing Desktop Tower Defence by HandDrawnGames.
Loved that game!
Will have to have a play of this I think!
Hey Saint Oliver, hope you're doing well! Yeah this is a cool one for fans of the genre. (Mark)
On sale now till 27th Dec for $7.99 and complete edition at $11.99
You got me at "laser bullet turrets"
Have you guys tried swords and soldiers? I play a moba called awesomenauts on xbox but the same devs made swords and soldiers that's exclusive to switch. It's a great 2d rts :)
Fantastic review Mark, like always 😁.. this game looks very interesting 🤔..
Yeah, this is one for me I think! (Mark)
Thanks for the review, I just picked up the complete edition on sale for $5 bucks.
I figured hey 4 games in one not bad at all...
I always like being "the bad guy" like Razor Ramon lol
*throws tooth pick at camera*
Hahaha
VANQUISH on the switch what’s your thoughts.
I think so!
I’d love to know what you guys think about Trials Rising with its N64’esque draw distance fog! 😁😝🥰
Not seen it, is it a shocker!?
SwitchUp 😝

Oh shit, the aliens are same ones you meet in riftbreakers dlc!!!
Hey guys this is a great game on pc graphics are fantastic hope the switch copes well 😁
Yeah it holds up really well. You going to pick this
Should I pick up this game? Always check SwitchUp first! Thanks gag! The voiceover audio is a little off, think you were a little close to the mic, or need a new one. Thanks again!
Ah ok, it's a brand new mic I think the gain is too high. (Mark)
I'd say if you're a fan of the genre this is a definite pick up while on sale
they removed the splitscreen coop in this version
Yeah, sad times! (Mark)
SwitchUp do you think they can add it via DLC or the switch just cant handle it?
I think the Switch could handle it but they probably won't put the effort it would take to tweak and optimise it. Unless the game does really well. (Mark)

bad guys ftw! I been looking for a tower of defence game to sink my teeth into. This might be it. Thanks for the review!
I'd got this game on sale for $5.80 with using my gold coins. I need some tower defense game for my Nintendo switch
Got it all 80% off when Riftbreaker came out.
X morphs fear a simple riftbreaker with a nuke launcher and a minigun.
Earth would have more than one of em
Played it. Not for me. I prefer the old lazy simplier TD games where the player can only construct towers and nothing more.
Hehe can't you do intro to ghost mode and play it like that??
I’ve never played a tower defense game but I love my shoot em ups and I’ve been watching this one with great interest. My only issue was how much would having to worry about building towers and stuff interrupt my shmup? Lol You pretty much know my style Mark, what do you think? I’d have to get the full version i imagine. Thanks man, great video as always.
I think you might like it but it's a little repetitive. Better off asking Jace and CP on this one. Guys?
I'm considering the full version as well (on sale), but as it gets repetitive I don't know if it'd be better to get the basic game
I kinda get a Mass Effect Reaper vibe out of the X morphs.
Ohhhh I love those games so much...

if Xmorph is in Starcraft...
how many units would Xmorph have?
1-2? rest are all towers LOL now thats a base thats hard to destroy XD
