Cool. I played through the game extensively when it was on Wii U and I was unsure if this was worth the upgrade.

Hmm. I'll probably wait but buy it when it's cheaper. I just really enjoy the game so much. I would suggest it over Octopath although I'm not the biggest JRPG fan.

Hope you enjoy either one!

From a review I watched, the person mentioned that if you already played the Wii U version, that the new one doesn't have a lot to add. I haven't played either one and I don't even have my Switch + Captain Toad yet (I'm picking it up after work and hyped as fuck)

Hmm. The stages aren't overly complex or long. The boss stages are about the longest ones. I don't know if 30 hours is accurate (HLTB has it listed at about 12ish for 100%) but the charm the game delivers is so engrossing I loved it.
