Combat was smooth, and even the exploration of the overworld didn't cause more than one or two blips. I'm happy to report that these did not appear in my game on a regular Switch, or at least not enough to cause any problems (I played most of it in handheld).
Some of the early footage seemed to show that No More Heroes 3 was not properly optimized for Switch, experiencing several framerate drops in combat. The music is also great, with the stand-out track being the one that plays while Travis is eating at a sushi shop.
My favorite is one in which Travis must descend into a mine to get resources while avoiding lava - Travis is immune to the heat unless the lava actually touches him, naturally - and fighting off enemies that inexplicably appear. There are a variety of minigames, ranging from lawn mowing to unclogging toilets (which also unlock save points). The game's open world has side activities that Travis can partake in to gain money, which he needs in order to participate in the battles. The game is delightfully weird, funny, and irreverent in a way that Suda51 games usually are. There are some places where I think new fans will be left scratching their heads, but they'll still be able to get the gist of the story. The combat is easy enough to pick up and the story is relatively simplistic, at least to start. It's worth mentioning that, while this game will definitely reward series fans, it's also accessible for beginners. The basic hack-and-slash gameplay is good on its own, but then when you mix in Travis's special skills, the finishing attacks, and the ability to every so often jump into a super mech suit, the combat becomes a party. Travis's beam katana and his Death Glove (the colors of which are identical to the Joy-Con on my Switch, which, intentional or not, is pretty cool) offer a variety of attacks and skills to string together in an unbroken flow of combat. If you have any liking for action games, even if you've never played a No More Heroes game before, then you'll like the gameplay. Nmh3 Vanishing Point (Image credit: iMore)
