zeppelin03 | 314 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 (edited) I'm heading to Japan for the first time in November and bringing my switch. This is going to be a great time to get some gaming in. A couple hour layover and a 14 hour flight should leave just about any game on the table. My plan is to only bring 3 carts with me, since I don't want to carry a bunch of lose carts. So far I am leaning towards BOTW, Mario Odyssey, and Hollow Knight. This should leave a nice balance of pick up and play as well as long gaming sessions. Putting the packing list together got me thinking about what others would bring. If you could only carry 3 titles from your collection for a couple week trip what would you bring? Edited October 22, 2019 by zeppelin03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperJimtendo | 1,116 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I’ve been playing child of light. Its a turn based rpg. Pretty light hearted but deep. And the visuals are pretty good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be perfect for day to day when I'm not playing Stardew Valley. If I recall the download isn't much. Is physical still available?

doner24 | 1,195 Moderator · Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 I flew from Minneapolis to Tokyo in March and took Mario Odyssey, Hollow Knight and Undertale. Pretty much only played Mario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I plan on buying Pokemon in Japan so that might be my game for the trip back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ausden | 323 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Mario Odyssey, South Park fractured but whole, and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuNKeY | 241 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 even if its digital *sigh* , Castle Crashers... then BotW and I suppose some puzzle game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galdius | 1,507 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 If you haven’t played Mario Maker 2 yet, I think it would be a great choice. It has lots of content on story mode and you can download more levels if you want to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeppelin03 | 314 Posted October 23, 2019 Author Share Posted October 23, 2019 A new game + run of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 would be a great fit. Or even finish the playthrough of BOTW I put down a while back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorEncore | 3,690 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) Celeste!!! Best game of 2018! And Switch performance is fantastic. Perfect for bite sized gaming or long stretches.

ap123 | 112 Subscriber T1 · Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 I enjoyed playing through Batman: The Telltale series on a transatlantic flight last year. It's more like a choose your own adventure type game, so you can just let the story line carry you along. You certainly don't have to think too hard.

RegularGuyGamer | 2,011 Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 For me it'd be BOTW, Pokemon let's go and Smash. However I'd end up only playing smash for 30 mins get frustrated, play Pokemon and see if I can find a new shiny then play BOTW for 10 hours and find 3 shrines.
