You sure they didn’t throw in the horse as a secret playable character that’s unlocked by complimenting the console on its stability via the mic?

@AverageGamer Um wow. Because it's not like grownups like Eevee. Did you need to come and defend your fellow troll? Grow up.

@DennisReynolds Digital foundry is FOS. Also, you're just acting like a troll. Grow up and get over it.

Never trust DF. Lol They've gotten plenty wrong.

I don't think I got the "best" ending for the original, so a Switch 2 update may be enough for me to replay it.

Awesome, man team cherry did such a good job with the art in Silksong that I was surprised looking back at Hollow Knight footage at how much more simplistic and basic it looks in comparison. Really cool they're doing all this for free, especially when the base games themselves are already insanely good value for money.

Nice! I played Hollow Knight on PC many years ago. I’ve waited on Silksong because of my back log but may grab the original and Silksong on Switch if they both go on sale soon.

@Ploppy
Please see comment #26

Fire Emblem Shadows, never played it, don’t have an opinion. Might be the worst thing ever. But the Metacritic score is based on a whopping five critic reviews. Five. Never mentioned in the article strangely enough.

Maybe when the Switch 2 version comes out I’ll finally finish the darn thing.

But is it really an expansion or just a catalyst for another game?

GOAT status. I’ll be there as soon as it releases.

@michellelynn0976 You also haven’t provided evidence on why Cyberpunk is a more technically demanding/advance game. Also telling someone to grow up on gaming websites while using a eevee profile picture. Talk about pot calling the kettle black

@Gs69 @link3710
Yeah the compatibility thing can be odd sometimes, theres definitely games which work fine despite some minor issues while there are also games which are marked as working but have some notable issues (Klonoa for a while wouldnt boot, also the FMV issues in Trails from zero/azure i mentioned prior in other comment sections, though unsure how they are now)

Kind of feels like the steam deck verification thing, more of a general guideline than a gospel truth and can often be worth looking into some games if you are unsure.

Here before it becomes its own game and takes 9 more years to release.

I got Hollow Knight on sale but still haven't played it so the Switch 2 Edition might be a good excuse to finally play it whenever that releases.

Team Cherry is the goat. Super excited to play Hollow Knight at 120 fps as well!

@Spider-Kev Have you enjoyed any of them?

Graphics are great, just make sure I've got my frames.

@canaryfarmer MindsEye is probably the most (in)famous game in that top 10.

@michellelynn0976 Say that to Digital Foundry. Also take your own advice.

I'll most likely not play any of these and I don't expect many of them to be winners, but I've been good about downloading all of their free games every day so far on both my Switch 2 and my boyfriend's Switch 2, and he actually enjoyed Retro Drive! Made me happy to see that he enjoyed one of their games!

Here's hoping I can keep it up every day and just net us a bunch of free games! Good luck to everyone else who's participating!

Bout one of the only good things you can say about Metroid Prime 4 yeah the graphics look great. Although recently replaying Metroid Prime remastered those graphics are still amazing and feel on par with what the switch2 can do

Nice, hopefully the framerate is gonna be much more stable in docked play and crashes are gone because otherwise this is a really great conversion.

You're really tempting me to pull out my physical copy and play this, Larian.

@DennyCrane Wow, I haven't seen the Bamboozle guy in yonks!

The lack of care in ensuring the product shares parity doesn't really make sense when accounting for such old games with miniscule file sizes. That coupled with the fact the emulation environment is likely known by the devs and could've simply been delayed if the process was less simple for Switch.

Smacks of pushed out the door to make money quick.

@PikaPhantom considering the latter is practically the spiritual successor of Concord down to the tee of the social media accounts acting like entitled snobs at any remotely negative criticism I’m gonna put a dollar on Highguard. Nintendo EoS games typically last awhile. Certainly more than how fast Concord died.

We could have got Switch 2 60 FPS compatibility for Three Houses instead.

Im just imagining some capcom exec making grabby gestures during this sale, and saying "Money, money, money! Come to paapaa!

Good to hear! I put this on my Christmas list so it should be all patched up and ready for my holiday break

Ubisoft went ubihard on this update!! Hope it fixes whatever issues this game has

@dudujencarelli I definitely agree that post SNES the X series got worse. That's why I hope an X9 can return to basics similar to how MM9 did at the time for the original series. Guess it all comes down to the direction.

Probably a pre-aplolgy for the new one not making switch 2

If Ubisoft wanted to do something decent, they could start with a new Rayman game or remake Red Steel/RS3.

60fps docked and 30fps in handheld mode according to switch ups video 30fps in handheld is perfectly fine for a game like this but it does make me wonder if the newly announced divinity could run on this.

To be honest at this point the main benefit for me in having a physical copy is to save some space on my microSD cards for the many other games that are download only, so as long as the update data doesn't outweigh what's on the cartridge I'll be happy enough.

Seeing as they DO have the ability to add or fix things post-launch though, perhaps it's about time Digital Eclipse stopped the main menu in their SNK collection from crashing all the time.

@PinderSchloss Yeah, I was about to say, it's more evocative of Don Bluth than Disney. That being said, however, Don Bluth did work for Disney before leaving and founding his own studio, so you could make the argument that it could still be Disney, albeit a very specific era of the company.

@Troubbble Forgot about Vivillon, only forms of it you can get are Garden and Marine.

Lol. Lmao even. Or rofl. Pick your chortle.

I wonder if there will be a physical, non game key version for Switch 2 down the line. The upgrade pack is 20 GBs and I really don't have much space left.

@SirLink I believe the common understanding of couch co-op is a single system with multiple controllers and multiple players. As such, this game doesn't have that.

@Jojofelfel

Do we think this or Highguard is hitting EOS first?

Shadows is a good game.
Nothing spectacular, but not the common thread in all of the above comments: The people who dropped essentially only played the (bad) tutorial.
Once you actually start playing the game and understand the strategic depth it offers, it's a very fun time.
And it isn't a predatory gacha like Heroes.

Wow they just cheped out on us 😳

@Luigia Oh it's definitely a cool game. Shinen's just known for doing magic with Nintendo's hardware, so it's a shame Fusion feels like it had to make some compromises.

@sarcasmasquach not sure if multiplayer counts as "couch co-op" but this game can be played by two players as long as both are using their own Switches and both own the game. I suppose you could play it on a tv while your friend plays it on his own Switch in portable mode to have the "couch effect".

I wanted it to be good. I was prepared to buy season passes and everything, but after a couple hours I realized it just didn't have anything I wanted. I don't know how they managed to top "You're a summoner who can summon any character from any Fire Emblem Game. Sometimes in different outfits!" as a fan-servicey story gimmick, but "You happen to run into furry versions of Fire Emblem characters" is so much worse.

I love these free upgrades. I hope they keep on coming. Next up, FNAF Security Breach? And Secret of the Mimic while we're at it? Please?

Tamagotchi plaza isn`t there yet , so how can this be one of the worst games ? Or am I missing something ?
