@BaldB3lper78 "Was it not?" No it wasn't. It was a lot of fun and very enjoyable to obviously a lot of people, since it made so much money at the box office and got all those awards.

Id add - morph ball was helpful to avoid the dragon heads and sylux’s spinning attack.

Hoping this comes with the physical edition we’ve been hearing about!

@DennyCrane Avatar 4 and 5 already have release dates. He's planning to direct these too. After that he'll just be the producer.

@Smithicus "China was by far the largest market for Avatar 2".
No it wasn't. 245 million dollars in China vs 684 million in the US and Canada.
It also made a ton in several other countries like in Germany where it made 163 million and 157 million in France.

In a world of way too many good games to play vs. time in the day, these improvements may make me pull the trigger on this.

@nessisonett From “This sort of stinker is indicative of the general reputation of Fire Emblem these days” to “this niche series is in a lull because the last one I declare ‘had an impact’ was released 6 years ago.” Thanks for your insightful, non-controversial takes.

I am excited by this! Will listen on the commute to work tomorrow morning. Video game soundtracks just chill me out.

NOOOOOOO they patched the out of bounds bug!!!! Oh well, it was bound to happen.

Actually pumped my fist and said "yes!" when I saw this appear in the app. Easily one of the best OSTs they could've added relative to how small it is.

@HammerGalladeBro
There's 16 tracks in this release that are just varying levels of "hurry up" versions, so your estimate of about 20 is actually almost spot-on.

Still no gyroscopic or mouse aiming controls?

@michellelynn0976 That doesn’t prove anything. You just posting a google search link without proving anything actually information. Cyberpunk is on PS4/Xbox One… AFOP is not. A lot of Switch 2 port efforts stem from last gen effort while building on top of that and scaling up. Cyberpunk technical advancement comes from the fact the team has continued to build upon it’s very limited last gen scope using next gen features. But the base of the game is still very last gen. AFOP base is all next generation features like it lighting model only being RTGI.

Haven't been able to get into either game yet, who knows if I ever will, but super happy for Team Cherry, especially being humble Aussie game devs, and they seem to have such great attitudes.

I might download the app on the merits of this soundtrack alone…what a weird little triumph these tunes were.

@DennisReynolds I’m with you on this one. Yes Cyberpunk if you run it with path tracing on is about as demanding as Avatar is on my PC but it scales so much lower. My old system from 2015 and my Steam Deck both ran Cyberpunk acceptably but didn’t even bother trying Avatar on the Deck since I saw it ran at a constant 10-20fps (old PC was upgraded by that point).

On the game itself I’ve got 125 hours in it and it’s my favourite Far Cry style game since Primal and I went in having never seen the movies or with much interest in the whole franchise. I bought it pretty much looking for a new Far Cry style game and something to show off my shiny new GPU and left satisfied on both accounts. Hopefully it does somehow make its way to Switch 2 so more people can experience it as it really is a good showcase piece and as has been previously said in this thread the flying is insanely good. Going above the clouds and diving through is something I’ve only otherwise experienced in Flight Sim.

@LazyDaisy Well, we got Silksong after all these years, at least.
The same cannot be said about Katana ZERO's DLC that more looks like a vaporware than an actual work in development.

Could really use an Act 4...I really got my money's worth on this one and more content for free wahy not

@canaryfarmer if this were a content drop, yeah, but it's literally just a bug fix lol

Well, as someone who has yet to play Hollow Knight, I might as well pick it up on Switch 2 at this point.

Music is great, but that box art slaps my jacks.

@The_Nintendo_Expat

Earthion is on the list, and that's a 2D pixel game. 👍

@Jason_Feiner once the peeps get out of bed and go to work it will happen, I'm sure. They're based in England, you know?

33 songs? Didn't think the original Super Mario Land had that much music.

Yes, I'm aware it may also include jingles and fanfares, but even then I thought it was like 20 at most.

@canaryfarmer... Or a XSX or PC...

They should've included the Ambassadors of Funk song.

...Where is Link's Awakening? They should do a dual release of the GB version and the switch version of the soundtrack, like they did with Paper. Mario TTYD.
Either way, glad to have this here. Hopefully its sequel isn't too far behind either.

@Jason_Feiner well then, somebody is passionate about mario land's ost

More like Pants Emblem amirite?

The dip in ranking matches my interest, as I haven't gone back to it since getting the first key.

I hope it's separate from the main game. I already got my 100% completion and having it get decompleted would sort of feel like having someone open the back of a book I just closed and shove a bunch of extra pages in it. The only reason I even bought Silksong at launch is because I assumed they couldn't have anything else they wanted to add after spending all that time on it.

So this will release sometime in 2034?

I’m waiting for physical either way. Hope they release physical with just the originally released version. I hate DLC generally always.

Out of all the old Mario games, this one honestly has some of my favorite tracks.

I am curious how the new content will unlock and what the difficulty will be. I love this game but I only played to the Act 2 ending and that took me something like 76 hours. I then started a new file to see how much I improved and finished Act 1 in under 6 hours. I want to go back to that second file and finish act 2 as well and eventually go back to the first file and unlock and play act 3.

Glad to hear! I heard rumors of DLC but it's cool to see them formally confirmed. I won't be hooked on the news cycle for the game though, but I'll definitely buy the physical whenever the DLC finishes and that launches, probably in 2027.

Straight to "Ending."

A top the commute-home play list it goes.

Liam Doolan, can you make a post that Super Mario Land has been added to Nintendo Music today?

I guess the broad media's campaign to destroy Metroid Prime 4 with their deranged hysteria over a dorky computer character worked. I also fault Nintendo for not releasing it early in the year, or even late 2024. It could have enjoyed almost undivided attention due to little else of consequence released on Switch at the time. Now, with all the distractions of other games and higher expectations for Switch 2 games (even if technically it's a Switch game), Metroid Prime 4 is lost. The sales results are simpler appalling for a stellar title like this. Whatever! I'm loving it to pieces.

Just repurchased Silksong on Switch because this game should not be only $20. Can’t wait for the new update!

Really undeserved, frankly. Had a good few months with it, there's a lot of depth once you get past the beginning, but, as I've said before, the game does a TERRIBLE job at really showcasing its own complexity. There's a reason tons of FE YouTubers lambasted the game when it first came out, then basically all unanimously retracted those critical videos after a few days.

@AstroTheGamosian Yeah, I'm just a nitpicker who also tells people that not every 3D animation is Pixar and not every field + blue sky is Ghibli

@Jason_Feiner best credits-roll music of all times.... Love it

I think the only question on everyone's mind is "how difficult will it be?".

😋

Darn. And right after I deleted the unfinished game on my Switch 2 to make room for games that are more fun and forgiving.

Super Mario Land has been added to Nintendo Music!

@DennisReynolds Whoops. Hogwarts Legacy is in the top 10. Another game the Switch 2 can run. Do I need to keep going?

Team Cherry yet again proving themselves the best developers out there.

More older games should have Switch 2 upgrades. Especially games that suffer from poor performance. I hate that Bloodstained Ritual of the Night for example is still a hideous blurry laggy mess even when played on Switch 2. And the developers have stated that they have no plans to further work on that game, so it's just gonna stay like that.

Meanwhile Team Cherry are updating their game that didn't even run poorly in the first place, and releasing it for free. Because they're the best.

@AverageGamer Hogwarts Legacy also pops up, but Cyberpunk is still considered no1, annnnnnd the Switch 2 can run it. Whoops.

Wow, crazy. That's awesome. They should have said it comes out in 202X though.
