Ya it wasn't one I was really excited for. But I figured I'd give it a go. The puzzles are kinda cool. Shoot the lock or stick the gun in the keyhole... stick the gun in the keyhole, because that's far more logical in a dream.

Yesterday, that changed. Every other person got a Switch Lite. Now we're a five Switch household. Six once my Pokemon Lite releases.
If this is AT ALL indicative of what other families will be doing, I think the Lite will do just fine for Nintendo.
@JaxonH Also glad you're giving AI a shot. It'll probably be criminally underlooked, what with all the big releases coming out around it. I'm excited to get my copy soon, personally. I'm not expecting to like it as much as VLR, but Uchikoshi is a creative writer. Enjoyed Ever17. Enjoyed the ZE trilogy. Expect to enjoy this as well.
Now if we could just get Danganronpa on the Switch...
Do you guys think AI Somnium Files is worth $60? A friend of mine got it as well and he said while he likes it, he felt it's not $60 worth.
Asking if a game is worth whatever the publisher is asking for is really subjective. Me personally? I believe Kotaro Uchikoshi is a talented person. I picked up the LE at $90 without hesitation. Considering that the Zero Escape series is beloved by its fans, chances are good AI: The Somnium Files will be quickly be considered a hidden gem of a game.
Switch Physical Collection - 1,536 games (as of December 14th, 2025)
Switch 2 Physical Collection - 4 games (as of December 8th, 2025)
@Ralizah same with me, we went from 1 at launch to 2, now 4 (1 "new" switch and 3 lites). Will be getting the Pokémon one as well but only to resell but I agree the Lite definitely has its place.
@BruceCM That's not likely an issue? Didn't they release them in like XV:PE - IX - VII - XII - X/X-2 - VIII as an order so far? I know it certainly wasn't even close to numbered order. They kicked off with XV since it's the newest, and VII was early on to capitalize on Cloud in Smash hype as well, while I (1) wouldn't have any reason to be rushed out. And I (1) almost certainly won't be released as a standalone game honestly, either we'll get the Origins version, or Dawn of Souls, either way both I and II will be included in a single title.
Also, with people hyped back on FF again now that we've gotten all the major titles Nintendo's missed in the past (that people want anyways), the sales of rereleases of the original games will likely be higher.
Assuming I&II are sold together, @DenDen .... We're only talking about 7 FF main games & 3 tactics spin-offs! Perhaps they can do Crisis Core & Dirge of Cerberus, too?
Has anyone tried those hori dpad joy cons that only work in handheld? They're on sale at a retailer by me for $13 and I Just wanted to see what people thought about them.
I was happy with the standard joy-cons, @NintendoByNature .... Hori is well known for it's accessories, though & at that price, you might as well try them out yourself
Playing some Darksiders II, and replaying the start of this game just reminds me how epic the opening half hour is. If they ever make a top 10 list for best openings in a video game, Darksiders II would be vying for top spot.
Atelier Ryza lookin real good on Switch. Big step up from previous titles. Actually seems like a solid B-grade JRPG now instead of C-tier.

Anyone grabbing Ghostbusters remastered in a week or So? I never played the original so I'm not sure what to expect but I think i might grab it to hold me over til lm3.
Just picked up No No Kuni. Amazing game! The art and story I can already tell are going to be great. I had never played this one before now. Although a friend of mine kept telling its one of his favorite games.
And we have another one to add to the ever growing pile
@Ralizah
I always assume docked unless otherwise specified.
DOOM ports were already addressed a while back as far as the logins (and even then it was a one time thing, and you could type any bogus address you wanted). In any case that’s addressed, and not sure what other issues there were.
The update fixed lighting and performance issues. Also, if you do optionally sign in to Bethesda.net account you unlock a special DOOM Eternal skin and nameplate for when the game releases, which I think is pretty cool. Make it optional, provide incentive. How it should be,
@scubydo
Yes, Ni No Kuni is amazing. An absolute must own for any RPG lover who owns a Switch. And it looks SO good in handheld mode. A true top tier Switch release. I’ll be making cuts to fit the best games on my 1TB micro SD for Switch Lite, as it’s all digital and only the best of the best get chosen for it (and 1TB is already filled up, my goodness), but as I start archiving games to make space as new games release ( at least until the inevitable 2TB card at the end of the generation where I can have all the best games fit), I can tell you this: Ni No Kuni will NEVER be one of the ones archived. Neither will Dragon Quest XI S or Witcher 3. What a trio of handheld RPGs... unbelievable how big of a leap Switch was over 3DS.
I pulled out my 3DS The other day and fired up Dragon Quest VII, and set my Switch Lite next to it with Dragon Quest XI S demo... the leap feels just as big, if not bigger, than the massive jump from PS2 to PS3.
3DS vs Switch Lite is truly a massive, massive leap for handheld gaming. And not just in terms of graphics but feature set as well.

Can we take a moment to truly appreciate how great summer ‘19 was for Nintendo Switch?
And that’s just the summer, and that’s not even accounting for games with slightly less stellar reception or games too small to get reviewed, but that were still solid games (some even being stellar). Such as:
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 God Eater 3
Wolfenstein Youngblood Daemon X Machina
Bloodstained Ritual of the Night Collection of Mana
Tetris 99 Bulletstorm
DOOM 1/2/3
Dragon Quest 1/2/3
DMC 1/2
Grandia HD
Red Faction Guerrilla
etc.
And we had a pretty nice first half of the year too, just for Trials Rising, Tales of Vesperia, Assassins Creed 3, Resident Evil 0/1/4, Dragons Dogma, Final Fantasy X/X-2, Final Fantasy XII, Chocobo’s Dungeon, Ace Attorney Trilogy, NSMBU, Yoshi, Mortal Kombat, Cuphead, Hellblade, Darksiders, etc.
And fall looks to be keeping it rolling, with Ori and the Blind Forest kicking off the next 3 months of awesomeness (I suppose Dragon Quest XI S also releases same day, but reviews are already out for that one).
