That said, there is no defense for the way they are treating Switch owners here. Switch is vastly more capable than PS3, yet still gets so many godawful ports which is massively inferior to the PS3/Xbox360 ones, or even manages to looking worser than the GC/PS2/Xbox generation! Of course, when EA comes out with a good game (and without any of their usual microtransaction abuse) like "Star Wars: Squadrons," they don't even attempt to try to bring it to Switch. And yes there are only PS4, XBOX ONE and PC games of. Like many games, FIFA 21 is best when playing with friends. With that review you are helping a lot to people that were going to buy this game thinking it was different from last year. I understand people love Nintendo but this is rationalizing poor behavior. It’s all well and good trumpeting that you’ve got Ultimate Team on the Switch when it doesn’t share the Xbox or PlayStation ecosystems and you’re left competing with three guys and a dog. Volta street football? It doesn't matter if now Switch's power actually is at PS4/Xbox One range, it still gets this treatment from the majority. its not the programmers fault, its the greedy ceo and its managers. Join the conversation using #FIFARatings on social media! There was very little change from FIFA 19. I mean if they only made one and called it fifa switch then like chris said that wouldn't be much of an issue. This is the nintendo fanboy hyperbole I come here for. This may not be the easiest franchise in the world to port over, and from a technical standpoint I actually don't expect to see the latest bells and whistles, but what I do disagree with is the pricing. But I won't be supporting EA on day one like I have with FIFA 18 and 19. Hopefully they may get the message by the time Fifa 28 comes out. As it stands, there is just zero reason to buy FIFA 21 on Switch, especially if you've already bought one of the previous year's ones. Since Fifa is actually better on phones than it is on the Switch. Clarification, you think that Nintendo's behavior is worse than EA's because the resolution and framerates are lower? I don't think I've seen steps taken in the gaming world that are so patronising and demeaning to consumers. My oldest son has been looking forward to the game. LEGACY EDITION - FIFA 21 Switch has drawn mixed reviews. Looks like it’s currently sitting at a 0.1 user score on Metacritic. @shazbot I don't understand how nintendo was able to boost the resolution and frame rates on the other ports but not pikman. @Silly_G What legacy Pokémon releases? No one should buy this even if you are the biggest Fifa fan. I'm begging for Namco to give me some ridge racer, tekken, soul calibur. Scoring PolicyReview copy provided by EA Sports. Does not look like it will happen soon. The only time nintendo added anything significant in their ports was the battle mode in mario kart 8. READ MORE: Everything we know about FIFA 21 Career Mode. I played the hell outta FIFA 18 on Switch. So why're so many devs still hesitating about Switch? The only good games they’ve produced were Dead Space and Mass Effect, everything else was pure poppycock. This is a garbage port of an ps3 game for the third time in a row. @sixrings there have been numerous discounts on eshop since launch for FIFA 20. Those are the omissions I feel are more frustrating, because there's no technical explanation for it. Get the Career Mode Homegrown Talent — A local youth prospect with world-class potential - and other great content when you buy the FIFA 21 Champions or Ultimate Edition! There are no new game modes, no new features, nothing to separate this game from last year's game other than the obligatory squad and kit updates. FIFA 21 Career Mode - 5 Big Changes for Switch: After years of community requests, a number of big changes have been made to Career Mode in this year's FIFA 21… This is the stance you are taking on this game?! Maybe that's the problem because I love them I have high expectations from them. Career mode, Ultimate Team, and Volta all return in FIFA 21, but in terms of gameplay true evolution isn't likely to occur until a couple of years into the PS5 and Xbox Series X life cycles. And the sales reflect the anger of the community. They are doing almost the bare minimum with games they are putting on Switch and ones like this are likely only because they have to for the FIFA license. At first, we gave EA the benefit of the doubt and put it down to the challenges of porting a game to a less powerful system with a user base who hadn't seen a new FIFA game for half a decade. I bought Fifa 2018 at launch because I knew it would be the same thing on the Switch year after year. It seems others look at it differently. We encourage you to read our updated PRIVACY POLICY and COOKIE POLICY. No chance: you're still stuck with the Xbox 360 and PS3 FIFA 17 career mode here, which itself had been lying unchanged since FIFA 15. Spoiler alert: You've lost this argument. @PretendWorking I don't understand your point. The majority of people play Fifa solely for one reason and that is FUT. We probably won't get FIFA 21 on PS4 OR Switch, however, for a few gaming & non-gaming reasons (my oldest needs to study hard this year!). We can point out many dumb Nintendo decisions, but your obsession over Pikmin 3 is warping the overall picture. Are the people who don't agree supposed to just nod their heads and move along. EA does not want it either so why should Switch owners. And yes people buying Fifa 21 as their first Fifa game will get a good game of football but this review is fair to point out the total lack of effort made on the game fron the previous year, sorry two years, but is still being sold at a premium price. I played the hell out of the 3ds version and liked the WiiU. Is it perfect? "A mode or two" is, at least in my opinion, not much less of a problem if said modes are sold for full price, not to mention the MTX shenanigans on top of all this. I don't really see any wrongdoing in EA taking them down, like I don't see any wrong with Nintendo taking Pikmin 3 down from the Wii U eshop. Although people have those cards already in their older versions. It might be just me but that box art is really bugging me. Scottish games journalist for 13 years, formerly of Official Nintendo Magazine UK & CVG, now my own site Tired Old Hack. EA is the worst company in the gaming industry hands down! Create and share your own FIFA 21 Ultimate Team Squad. @KryptoniteKrunch I'd just like to hear the same vitriol towards nintendo for their shenanigans. Hope this reaches to EA, so the make an improvement for next year, Btw, since you deleted PretendWorking’s comments, I missed the fun part lol, @Damo "Yeah, removing the older ones is pretty bad. @scully1888 yes but in this case that’s exactly what EA have done. Again, not saying EA is right because reading that line in context makes it sound like I'm defending EA, which I'm definitely not. Use the FIFA 21 hack for Ultimate Team to get unlimited free FIFA 21 coins and points on your Xbox, PlayStation, PC and Switch. @ObsidianEleven Well, "Pikmin 3" actually controls better on the Wii U, so there could very well be some people who have yet to buy it and own both consoles who would prefer the Wii U version (not many, but there could very well be some). Still your goal is to get CR7 with 99 Stats all around. Happy we got the free World Cup updates for that edition!! I'm glad I bought this game on Sale for like $9.99 (or maybe $14.99) back around world cup. @scully1888 Well, yes and no. They're not hiding the ball, why are you not okay with that? Just to pre-empt the inevitable "EA makes the same game every year anyway, this is no big surprise" comments: it really doesn't. EA earned its worst company in the US status. Ultimate Team’s microtransactions are a huge money-spinner for EA, and it clearly hoped that lightning would continue to strike on the Switch. I give Nintendo credit for at least trying something new. Say what you like about 2K Sports’ microtransaction nonsense, but at least it manages to achieve full system parity every year with the NBA 2K games on the Switch; instead of fobbing us off with nonsense about how its story mode is “only possible with the power” of a certain engine or how Switch owners’ glass brains are too delicate to handle every mode without shattering into a million pieces, it just gets on with it and makes it work. This game should be killed with fire. Animal Crossing: New Horizons: March Fish And Bugs - Catc... Guide: Pokémon GO Community Days 2021: March Community D... Where To Buy The Mario Red & Blue Edition Nintendo Switch. Meanwhile, companies like Konami (who admittedly didn’t even bother trying to bring Pro Evolution Soccer to the Switch) at least acknowledge when they’ve hit the end of the road and aren’t bothering to update their games any more. FIFA 20 moved the needle with the introduction of a shallow morale mechanic and overhauled pre- and post-match interviews, but FIFA 21 takes it … The other, even if not upgraded, is at least new code running on a new platform, even if you (and many others) feel they're lazy ports, at least they're ports not rereleases. @TheFullAndy I'm not a one of those against the masses types but I really don't think going against the grain means you're having a tantrum. They keep insulting us, patronizing us and treating us like third rate customers because you jump like babies everytime a "rumored" game comes from them to a Nintendo console...and either never comes or we get a garbage effort. So with that in mind, we have no interest whatsoever in recommending that anyone purchases FIFA 21, either. @sixrings So you're buying for the image quality, i assume? Change FIFA Year . Hell yes it adds an insane amount of content for a deluxe like a persona 4 golden persona 5 royal amount of content! At least that game was funny. I do understand the pain though. Guess what I think fifa is a good game that doesn't mean this is acceptable. By now giving us a second Legacy Edition in a row, while also removing the previous games from the eShop to ensure this is the only option that remains, EA has inadvertently created another, more realistic option: ignore this game entirely, and don't give out your hard-earned cash in return for being insulted. Some people are okay with 720p because that is an acceptable picture quality. Worst thing is, You are absolutely right about EA using this as a proverbial stick to beat down actually putting some effort in. ... and back to Captain Tsubasa: Rise of New Champions I go! FIFA 21 Ultimate Team guide: 5 things you need to know Another year, another FIFA, and with another iteration of the yearly football franchise comes some small changes to the game’s design. That's different than removing redundant legacy versions, which I agree is harmless. There is actually no other explanation for releasing this game other than the one that is so glaringly obvious: that Switch owners are being taken for mugs. Seeing as the install base for the switch is still growing any actual effort from them would probably increase sales. Again I am skeptical of the added content of pikman based on previous ports deluxe add ins. Have you played FIFA 21: Nintendo Switch Legacy Edition? @scully1888 apologies, I miss-read your comment earlier, hence my original reply. Match Sharpness. That mixed with outrageously repetitive commentary renders it unplayable. I play career mode, I like having the updated team rosters, new young players to scout, purchase and develop. Which.. ALSO runs on the Switch. What's their excuses actually? Career Mode Hidden Gems FIFA 21 Ratings. By the way, it's extremely annoying to see you misspell "Pikmin" in almost every one of your comments. When publishers release crap on Switch you can play the better version elsewhere. @scully1888 Good job headinge off too, I was ready to flame them but I forgot they actually had added new stuff in the past. In regards to fifa they have to pay their licensing fees so I'm not exactly sure how you expect that to happen. And, as promised, none of the gameplay innovations implemented in FIFA 20’s big-league version have found their way onto Nintendo’s hybrid device. The other missing features, though – like all the Ultimate Team stuff, or the updated career mode etc – those don't rely on Frostbite and their absence is purely down to a lack of effort. Gah, I wish Konami would make a pro evo on the switch. Actually, that's a pretty good point. Meanwhile, EA’s trying to get you to fork over £44.99 / $50 for what’s basically the fourth Legacy Edition of FIFA 17. Maybe you still find dvds acceptable. If someone was buying Fifa on Switch for the first time they are arguably getting a very good football game but it is about the principle of the matter and the bottom line is EA are getting away with charging 45 quid a pop for a game that has had zero effort put into it for the last two years. A ctual BRAZIL Seria A NEW 16.12.2021 + graphic: kits,banners,flags,some faces +all new and missing transfers INCLUDED LATEST FIFA 21 update COMPATIBLE WITH ALL OUR GRAPHIC MODS (Special thanks for Pedro and FIFAmania team) To use this mod you need Fifa Football Manager 1.0.3 FIFA 21 is the straw that breaks the camel's back. FIFA is a gacha game, through and through.It's very, very astutely made so as to disguise itself as a real game, but it's not. @EVIL-C no one's going to change the others mind. From a gaming perspective I personally would prefer new features / gameplay over graphical upgrades, but given the Switch's mild power improvement over Wii U, I can understand how rendering the same scene twice would prevent it from getting bumped to 1080/60. Also, if they left them up, they could just leave them up at full price. So because EA said the game will be a legacy edition, that gives it a free pass? @PretendWorking sorry but the only one who is throwing a childish tantrum here is you at the very existence of this review. @sixrings Yeah, removing the older ones is pretty bad. New Initial Set-Up O ptions: Customise your Career Mode with new initial set-up options. @sixrings A good game running at 720p / 30fps is still a good game, though. And as @shazbot says, we do highlight resolution / frame rate issues in all of our reviews. Choose from any player available and discover average rankings and prices. Oh dear, it would appear that FIFA 20, FIFA 19 and FIFA 18 have magically disappeared from the eShop, meaning FIFA 21 is the only actual option for anyone looking to buy FIFA digitally on the Switch! Aged as well as milk... We went back to FIFA on PS4. It's your fault for keep kneeling to EA and getting excited everytime they announce an insulting game for Nintendo owners. @scully1888 Well said. There really are no depths EA won't sink to in order to make a quick buck, have to be one of the laziest companies when it comes to Nintendo platforms. Re-packaged the same game with zero effort put in. @EVIL-C In this year’s game, the options for doing so are more plentiful than ever before with the introduction of online co-op to Ultimate Team. The only reason why the Switch can't run Frostbite is because EA is a lazy greedy trash company. For starters, it’s half-baked. The Audacity. If that is correct, and knowing how FIFA will want it's brand out there as much as possible, this has nothing to do with profit and everything to do with minimal effort to meet contractual obligations with the licence holder. Does not change anything about this review and the validness of it at all. @Damo but I'd argue if you hadn't bought fifa in the last couple years then it is still a good game. If you own FIFA 20 on the Switch, FIFA 21 is practically the same game. To be very clear neither is good for the consumer and I'm very frustrated with nintendo whom I have a great love and appreciation for. And when 19 introduced online play with friends on Switch I picked up that too. (And PS4, XBOX ONE and PC) There is 0 reason why it can't. It’s almost as if EA has just kept it in to remind Switch players what they could be enjoying if they’d bothered to buy the game on another system: you know, the systems where people actually spend money on microtransactions and are therefore worth allocating development time to. @Emperor-Palpsy I don't even necessarily want them to update to Frostbite, though: like I say in the review, I completely understand that the Switch isn't as powerful as the Xbox One and PS4 and that Frostbite may be too much for the system. Holy crap, this is the most scathing review I’ve seen from Nintendo Life. Mario was a complete release, unlike Spyro. It seems strange, you seem upset about Nintendo not releasing dramatically new games years later on another platform, but nonchalant about EA releasing the exact same reskinned game repeatedly on the same platform. 720p is good enough for any game, and anything better is simply a bonus. Hey, every little helps. To be fair, FIFA on Switch IS a good game. FIFA 21 Career Mode Find FIFA 21 Career Mode players and potentials. sips tea.

I'm glad this is getting the review it and EA fully deserve and whilst I appreciate they do put more effort onto the other versions I've never understood this need to have yearly iterations. In the years that have followed, however, EA has continued to shortchange the Switch and by this point, with the second Legacy Edition in a row, it's clear as day now that it has no interest whatsoever in providing a game that offers anything remotely new or improved for Switch owners. Imagine the opposite if now PS5 flops (never happens, but if) and sells at Wii U's level. EA have been crapping all over console makers for decades. But there's been no reason to get it since sadly. I do at the very least understand a couple of points; that the 'full' (current) version of FIFA would require significant optimisation to fit onto a 16GB game card, let alone a 32GB version; and Frostbite likely is very taxing on the CPU. Potential. And Skyrim. There's been plenty of opportunity for someone to buy it at a reduced price. After all, this isn't a simple case of drag-and-drop - all these elements tie into various aspects of the software that isn't present on the Switch version. @PretendWorking what are you talking about? Contract Expires. Theres already more than 6 times as many Switch owners as Wii U so clearly most of those owners would never have played or even had access to those games. That score is waay to high. haha. They removed the older games from the eShop? It's not like anyone would choose to have outdated rosters given the choice, not unless he/she is a massive fan of a team who was a lot better two years ago. So I have a problem with paying the same price for less effort. @PretendWorking NL didn't spend a dollar on this game, review specifically states that they got a review copy from EA. @Benjinat yeah people who don't really love football and follow all the teams latest player transfers and new players from the academy should definitely get 19. Now, if it were up to me, I would have passed. It's almost as if the athlete on the front cover understands the pain of Nintendo fans and is venting his frustrations. The biggest mod ever for FIFA 21. They should at least put it to $30 But 50 is too much. I hope International Superstar Soccer will comeback. There are no improvements since the last year. I would say the first warrants disappointment, the latter warrants this review. Years ago I read an article that said one of the contractual obligations of winning the FIFA license was you had to publish on all major games systems. You can talk about Nintendo games all you want but I am only talking about the game in question in this review. Those secret stages without FLUDD felt like precursors to Galaxy level design. It was complete nonsense and ever so slightly patronising, but hey, it was their first year, so we held our tongue and decided we’d give EA time to establish the series on Switch and see where it would go from there. The fan favourite World Cup mode on FIFA tends to fall on the Ultimate Team mode, which could prove an issue for Nintendo Switch … Is anyone really surprised in the slightest? we lack a real soccer game! EA seriously needs to open their eyes now, because we're already almost 4 years into the Switch's lifespan and they can't even get a single thing right all this time. Terrible company, terrible lazy cut and paste port, score too generous. Their new covers look like they were made in Microsoft Paint or Photoshop on Windows 98. What do you think is going to happen? They cost the same. When you are agreeing with Agramonte (a guy I ignore as he is insufferable) you have already lost the argument! Im still pissed there's no NHL for PC or Switch which are the two platforms I have. To be fair I was just playing with words they used for fun, Pretend brought up tantrum and because he wasn't liking the replies he was receiving seemed to start throwing one. EA hasn’t gotten a $1 from me in YEARS and will continue to miss out on my support. They weren't permanently reduced in price or cheaper than FIFA 21 has launched at. Yet, somehow people buy this garbage that EA even said beforehand was going to be garbage (from a garbage company). Love having FIFA on the go but the price is too much for what they offer.Will buy elsewhere, possibly Stadia so I can still play it on the go. And then compare it to the beautiful open world of The Witcher 3. @scully1888 Just give it a 0 already - no need to save that score for the next year. Match sharpness is a new attribute that indicates how likely your players are to … @PretendWorking Yeah, you're right, I should have given it a 10 because they said they weren't going to make an effort and they didn't make an effort, so their honesty should be rewarded. This looks shockingly bad though and I own FIFA 10 on DS. games despite being massively underpowered compared with PS3/Xbox360, yet Activision committed to giving everything to making the Wii versions, while the mostly of the devs in nowadays just "ewww, too much job!"

It is the 28th installment in the FIFA series, and was released on 9 October 2020 for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.Enhanced versions for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X and Series S were released on 3 December 2020, in addition to a version for Stadia If you're familiar with the Legacy Edition branding, you already know what to expect here: not much. Remember that Nintendolife headline about EA's releases for the Switch in the upcoming months, ''Now that's some support.'' Normally, I'd complain about a game that's just as good as its predecessor being scored more harshly, but here I think it's justified. "The new FIFA has the lowest Metacritic average in the series' history — but does a game with a license to print money have any reason to evolve? Switch will no doubt crack the 100m mark in 2022, it's impossible to denying about it, yet many here has delusions about that Switch will never reaching the 60 mark despite it's already exceeding it soundly. Back to this and EA are an absolute disgrace for releasing this. Another reason to buy PES over FIFA is that they have a Celtic edition. I doubt soccer mum who is buying FIFA for little Timmy on his switch will be reading this review. This version is awful.We do not have any major promo. Obviously not on Switch but Konami have halved the price of PES this year as the next version is being built from the ground up so 21 is just a squad upgrade. Hear the roar of the crowd when you play with your favourite team, whether you're setting up a free kick with Ronaldo or rifling in a shot with Hazard, all of football's superstars are here. They're being honest about what you're getting. @scully1888 This is likely because, with the PS/XB/PC versions of the game essentially 'one', EA can't justify reprogramming the legacy version of the game to feature those new elements you talk of.
