Honestly not a big fan of the switch to 3D, but still happy we're getting a new sequel after all these years.

It's going to be a little weird not playing on a touch screen but I'm ready for more layton adventures.

Believe it or not, but the Switch has a touch screen.

[-] SuperIce@lemmy.world 9 points 9 months ago

The games are required to be playable without a touchscreen though

[-] hdgdlfiuebdtus@feddit.de 7 points 9 months ago

They still can support Touchcontrols

[-] SuperIce@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

They can support touchscreens but need to be playable when docked.

Seriously? All games for Switch?

[-] FurtiveFugitive@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

It sure does but the odds of me using it are almost zero since I keep it docked and play on a big TV. Maybe Professor Layton will get me to pull it out but I imagine the puzzles will still be designed around the fact that a lot of people will not be using the touch screen. It's going to affect the types of puzzles seen.

I think it looks beautiful.

Do you need to play previous games to appreciate Layton series? I've only played the ace attorney crossover and the first 20 min or so of lady Layton.

Not really, they're all self-contained. That said you should play Professor Layton and the Curious Village, it's quite good and has a high quality remaster on mobile phones.
