I just saw footage of the Switch version of Mortal Kombat 1...
YIKES... Why did they even bother?!

@IceClimbers Because casuals see the marketing for the current-gen versions over on PS5 and XSX. They fail to vet their purchase by assuming the Switch version will be on par. And get baited into a regrettable purchase. With no easy refund system on consoles, Nintendo don't care if WB run the trap.

Crisis Core HD is currently about $16 on Play Asia right now. The Japanese version, but it supposedly supports English.

Went ahead and bought it. Was too good a deal to pass up.

Nintendo might been testing HDR technology for Nintendo Switch sucessor

This is a given, and something people seem to skim over when looking at what the jump in HDMI spec will bring. It's not all resolution and framerate

Seems as though the Yakuza series returning to Nintendo platforms with the release of a Yakuza: Like A Dragon & Like A Dragon Gaiden bundle at the launch of the NG Switch is the biggest news out of TGS 2023 so far.

The Capcom TGS event gave the impression of 2 major things:

  • RE4 Remake is coming to the Switch's successor (there wasn't a cloud version for the base Switch announced)
  • Capcom's waiting for Nintendo to reveal the Switch's successor before announcing the next Monster Hunter (the way the MH 20th anniversary segment was)

@Grumblevolcano That would make sense given how instrumental Capcom were in getting Nintendo to up the RAM inside the Switch. Can see them being involved with knowing the NG Switch before most of developers so they will know what’s under the hood and when it’s coming out.

@Magician Ooh, I will probably pick up Like A Dragon.

However it seems like a missed opportunity not brining Another Life to the Switch, you can never have enough farming sims!

Rumor only at the moment. But I think this leans more towards unofficially official. Many publishers have expressed their regret over not being there for the Switch early. They won't repeat that mistake.

I hope this is true - I was actually just about to pick up Like a Dragon for Xbox/PC. Will hold off for now...

Since we got Persona, Yakuza is the #1 series I've been waiting for on the Switch.

@Buizel Like a Dragon is great! Tried it on Game Pass and bought it on Steam. I have never played a game from this series, but this one has me hooked, I must say.

FYI regarding Tomb Raider trilogy remasters! According to the Crystal Dynamics website:
“ switch between classic and modern joystick control schemes”

That last part is obviously the question everyone was asking and it’s weird they never made that known in press releases.

Just catching up... that's great news, thanks for posting.

Is it me, or has the relentless onslaught of Switch releases finally claimed a high profile victim - @JaxonH, haven't seen you around recently and missing your input and vibe - hope you're well and playing hard wherever you are, bruh.

You guys had me at blood and semen.

What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?

@JaxonH is still alive and kicking, I saw their other accounts doing stuff the other day. I vaguely remember something about them starting a fancy new job so they are probably too busy spending the big bucks in the real world.

@BubbleMan Oh yes order placed waiting on shipping! Standard black for me. I will be using it strictly at home when not docked. Portability is taken away with it. Yes they have a case but still when I'm on the move I will switch it back to joy cons but super excited to use it handheld while at home!
