Review Red Dead Redemption - A Fine But No-Frills Switch Port, For A Fistful Of Dollars
For a few dollars more
Cast your tired minds all the way back through the mists of time to the year 2010. It was a truly great 12 months for video games, with the likes of Super Mario Galaxy 2, the best Mass Effect – AKA Mass Effect 2 – and the juggernaut that is Xenoblade Chronicles all arriving on the scene.

News Red Dead Redemption 2 Switch Rating Has Been Removed
Likely a mix up with the first game
Update [Thu 28th Sep, 2023 09:30 BST]: Well, it wasn't meant to be. The classification for a Switch version of Red Dead Redemption 2 is no longer showing on Brazil's rating board.

News Metal Gear Solid 2 And 3 Will Have Lower Frame Rates On Switch, Konami Confirms
"This isn't good, is it?"

This is depite the fact that both HD versions ran at 60fps back in...

Video Red Dead Redemption Runs Pretty Darn Well On Switch
A real gunslinger
Red Dead Redemption is out on the Switch eShop today — with a physical release coming later in the year.

Talking Point What Are You Playing This Weekend? (August 12th)
Pokémehn
Ladies and gentlemen, the weekend. For a slightly quieter one, this week was packed full of highlights here on Nintendo Life. The August Pokémon Presents happened and it will undoubtedly go down as one of the showcases of all time — but we did get a release date for the Scarlet and Violet DLC and two new NSO games, which is good. Quake...

First time playing Red Dead Redemption and i'm loving the switch port. Of course there are issues I see some graphical glitches here and there but they are not game breaking. Story is awesome, gameplay is great, and I mean its the wild west and I'm loving every minute of it =)
