I'm in the same situation almost exactly. It's drifted from time to time, but nothing egregious and sometimes it would even clear up for a few weeks or even months. But now it's back and worse than ever, but I haven't tried anything. Might do the contact cleaner, why not? I have a backup anyway.

Just noticed Monster Hunter Stories 2 is now available for pre-purchase on the eShop! And it has a new trailer I hadn’t seen before.

I’m right in the thick of my Monster Hunter Rise binge, as my save file is about to cross 250 hours. We’ve got the 2.0 update coming next week with like 3 new elder dragons, 2 new apex monsters and unlocked HR cap, and now, the Monster Hunter Stories 2 hype train is leaving the station.

Oh man, oh man what a year. It looks so good too. Capcom putting in work.

@Magician Ryza it is! Hopefully her thighs don’t distract me from her personality, her character, the alchemy, the world and the combat.

@JaxonH Looks like Nintendo accidentally leaked a trailer early then.

Next week (April 27th), there's a Monster Hunter Digital Event detailing the 2.0 update for MH Rise as well as new info on MH Stories 2.

Capcom anounce a Presentation in april 27th at 7 a.m to talk about Monster Hunter Rise 2.0 update and Monster Hunter Stories 2:Wing of Ruin.

@gcunit that happened to me 2 years ago and I never had problems ever since, while I was expecting it to get worse quite quickly. Last month had to the same to the pro controller though...

@Grumblevolcano
That would explain it then. Bring on the digital event!

@JaxonH I agree capcom is really letting loose!

the 2.0 update will need 0.9 GB to dowload the update, 1.5GB if this is your first time updating the game.

Konami hint that more information regarding Switch will come sooner.

So I bought a VR headset to play any VR switch games only to realise there is only about 5 games on switch that can be used for a VR headset. There's loads of different headsets on amazon and no game's ( bit strange ). 5000 games and none are VR

@Ninfan
If you want VR games, go get PS4 VR games.
And don't expect there will be 5000 ALL VR games. Sounds very nonsense.

@Ninfan Yeah...there's only a few Switch games that are compatible with the Labo VR set. The game that comes with the set is probably the most you're gonna get out of it.

Feels good seeing Monster Hunter Rise still hanging around the top 50 of the Amazon Best Sellers list, at #52, despite being a month after launch.

And Monster Hunter Stories 2 has shot up to #42, with Great Ace Attorney Switch climbing all the way to #8, making it the #1 actual game on the list.

If there was any doubt Nintendo fans love Capcom games, let that be dispelled now.

I kind of feel like Nintendo fans are less... what's the word... exploratory, than gamers on other platforms. Less willing to branch out and try something outside of their comfort zone (which is often just Nintendo games), but, when they do finally warm up to a series or a publisher, they're loyal for life.

with 19.410.000 consoles sold in japan, Switch surpass the Famicom and become the sixth best selling console on japan and know how is Chameleos, and what to expect of him in the 2.0 update of Monster Hunter Rise.

I've never been fussed with Monster Hunster myself, I tried it in the 3DS/Wii days and it didn't click with me. I may pick up Rise in a few months when it's dirt cheap to try it out again.

As much as people suggest Ninty fans aren't open to new games (with the average Mario Party and sports whatever outselling some gems like Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. or Sin & Punishment and even Bayonetta and Metroid don't do the numbers to warrant the hype), Ninty has to take some of the blame for it too. They had under estimated their own fanbase (although improving in recent years) for ages like Xenoblade almost never became a staple with fans having to do the whole Operation Rainfall thing where Xenoblade ended up selling better in the West than the East to carry it on.

"If there was any doubt Nintendo fans love Capcom games, let that be dispelled now."

Well, i played Pocket Fighter PS1, Airu de Puzzle PSP from Capcom.
Something different from Capcom games.

@jump
Not every Nintendo fans are closed to other games.
Recently, i open with obscure games from either PlayStation or Nintendo machines, something i have never played before but still match with my gaming taste. Even i bought Wii shovelwares for my curiousity.
Currently i have more interest with Yokai Watch 3DS games than my Pokemon games. I have more interest with Ratchet & Clank + Sly Cooper PS3 than 3D Mario games after played them. Suddenly i have interest with Rabbids Wii games after i watched from Youtube. But most of all, i have huge interest with BEMANI games on PS2 / PS1 / Wii / XBOX / XBOX 360.
Even i like Nintendo games by most, but i still have more interest with 3rd party games on Nintendo machines.
