Biggest W ever!
Is there finally hope for Yakuza 0 to be ported to the Switch? 🥹🥹🥹

This is an amazing series but I don’t know how well Kiwami will run on the Switch.
Hopefully the whole series makes it way over to the Switch 2.
Everyone should play Yakuza, but maybe not the Switch.

Its not 0 but MAN I BEG EVERYONE WHO HASN’T TO PLAY KIWAMI, Yakuza is an amazing series, Kiwami has it flaws but it might have one of my favorite plots ever… though that is due to the extra context 0 adds, this might be Sega testing waters with the series on Nintendo again, so please BUY THIS GAME.

What’s so good about it? It looks like it’s always trying to be funny but it doesn’t look funny at all.

Oh that’s amazing! I had a friend in high school who LOVEDDD Yakuza and even dressed up as one of the characters for Halloween one year (and looking incredible like) and I was always hoping to try out the games myself but I don’t have a pc!! Really excited!!

They should have announced Zero, Kiwami, and Kiwami 2 at once. Maybe they are testing waters here, but I expected at least these three games since they also share the same engine.

Finna Play Finna Buy, but not ta spite that stupid Director that thought Nintendo was for Kids. But get dude into Smash! And give.an Collection next Time!

I got tired of waiting and started playing these games on steam. I think I bought Kiwami for 6$.
I’m glad for everyone who has never had the chance getting to play these great games for the first time, but man why would anyone choose to pay the Switch tax if you had any other options?

I hope the art they got for this thumbnail is what they use for a potential physical copy cus I’d buy it

Launching Kiwami as the first game on the console instead of 0 is certainly an interesting choice. Kiwami isn’t bad, but 0 is a much better ‘onboarding’ game for people brand new to the series.
Maybe licensing issues with the face actors? idk man, but I really think everyone’s first experience with yakoozie should be getting folded up by Kuze.

Everyone’s gangster until they get to the disco dancing minigame.

Kinda annoying it’s JUST Kiwanis but baby steps I guess. A full collection probably won’t be happening until the Switch 2.

I’ll buy it

The yakuza series is iconic and kiwami is an amazing remake, though if you go into it expecting the silly/hilarious side stories that the series is famous for, this one is a bit lacking. But the actual story is probably the best in the entire franchise, or at least up there competing with zero.
I hope people buy and play it. I enjoyed it a lot even if it’s not my favorite.

Zero is a much MUCH newer game than Kiwami I think they went with this one first to see if it runs or goes well.

Please play this game! While it’s not my favorite Yakuza game (that belongs to Kiwami 2 so far) it’s an incredibly good game and while not as good as an intro to the series as 0 was, still a great starting off point to get into the series. Playing Yakuza games on the go would be so nice as well.

Kiwami before 0? Ballsy choice, SEGA. Ballsy choice.
