Just looked it up. Bummer.

> The only control option is to move a crosshair around the screen with the left thumb stick. As seen in other Switch lightgun games, the motion controls in the Joycons is far from accurate with an annoying amount of drift, but not having this option really does leave the game feeling sterile. And on top of this the thumb stick control for the reticle is incredibly twitchy.

Thanks for doing the research! Big letdown for sure I wouldn't even rate this at worth it for $2, I really want a solid Time Splitters or Duck Hunt light gun style game to play for nostalgia

We used to play this at the country bar in college. I'm going to break out some cheap beer and try to replicate the experience. Thank you for posting!

Are you saying you use joysticks for this or the joy cons instead of wiimote?

Do you mean Time Crisis? It came with a gun for PS2 and had an arcade version with a reciprocating receiver.

I don't think Time Splitters ever did.

For two bucks I'll try it, why not. Used some gold points. Best case scenario the next Switch has better assuming and this is compatible.

Nintendo has never allowed us to keep our digital purchases from one console to the next, so I wouldn't assume Switch digital games will port to whatever the Switch 2 is called. They have a history of making us pay for the same games over and over again.

I'm not a huge Xbox guy, but Microsoft has been the best about letting us keep our digital purchases from one console to another. Sony has been hit or miss. Unfortunately, all the games I want to play are first-party Nintendo.
