Re: Talking Point: Starter Pack - What Are Your Nintendo Switch 2 Essentials?

Alcea

I could just check my list..

But ontop of my head...
Hmm DreamlightValley, MegamanStarforce and NieRAutomata
with KingdomHearts 1.5&2.5 joining the ranks in October
Technically HAVEN too I guess. I love that game.

I deliberately avoid Pokopia
And Apex is a game that is haunting me.

Hardwarewise:
My GenkiShadowcast and Switch2HDMI Dongle (I hate the OG Docks Nintendo makes)
aswell as

My ProController2 (best purchase ever)

EDIT:
Truly Switch2 ?
uhh I only have like AgeOfImprisonment, MKW, FFVIIR, PeopleOfNotes, FastFusion, TombRaider
But are any of em essential atm ?? Uhhh
Ask me again in a year.
Even KH1.5.2.5 will also be a Sw1 game..
If we do not count thirds how am I even supposed to find a game nlt on Sw1 or Steam...

Re: Kingdom Hearts Collection Switch 2 Estimated File Size Revealed

Alcea

Have my Space. All of it

@BigE
1.5&2.5 is basically KHI n KHII with BBS (think "KH0") aswell as KH:CoM (intermediate between KHI n II)

I-III should be everything I think

Shame 358/2 is still just movies.
It might be the best KH ever made...

@kfflscnt
But that lacks KHIII and the upcoming IV

The only comparable deal is the SteamDeck.

@Whoever
Ah yes. AVGN said that too.
358 over 2 is especially notorious (๑╹ω╹๑ )

Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Direct June 2026 Predictions - What Do You Hope To See?

Alcea

They better deliver...

I don't expect anything that will drop in the next months.

I'd really like a new ARPG or something.
Nier and KH are so long ago... Beh.

I kinda wonder what that treehouse thingy will be after..
Splatoon already go Raiders so there will be none. FE has something going already too.. hmmm.

@beltmenot
Yes. They will already cut the roster anyways
(Easy for me to say who only likes Kirby, Sephi and Samus...)

It will be like MKW. Better, technically, but in terms of content, way worse.

Kinda lame

Wonder if it will be 80 bucks or something.
And from then on all game awards will be SmashBros ads

Re: Final Fantasy VII Revelation Officially Unveiled For Switch 2, Out Spring 2027

Alcea

Aww I thought this was a faithful FVII remake..

Ok. anyways. Time to play Remake now I guess.
only a few months till 2027.
(Kinda surprised we get it without the usualy Sony-wantz-exclusivity-shenanigans)

@abbyhitter
Crisis Core is a prequesl to VII.

Technicall youd be wise to do:

CrisisCore -> OG FFVII* -> FFVII-Reimagining (Remake/Rebirth/Revelations)

Oooor you can just watch this .
J/k. (But you can watch this once you have played all of the above, which should take aprox. as long as raising a a child and getting halfway to retirement.)
Play FFVII it is awesome.
The handpainted backgrounds and beautiful music.
Still one of my fav SE right next to KHII

Re: Crystal Dynamics Comments On Its Use Of AI In Tomb Raider: Legacy Of Atlantis

Alcea

I feel "empowered" to not buy this game.

If you don't have people with skills you trust in I say no

@NerdyPaul
Now. That is nOw.

Wait till everything is offloaded.

Train AI on previous games
??
Profit.

Funny how ppl are so gullible to think this will not result in many ppl loosing their dev jobs

@Athropos
If ppl don't buy it...

Just a shame most are not aware there is something that can be done.
NonCompliance is powerful.

Not buying is so easy.
See ?

People are just too comfortable these days.. It repels me

Re: Dragon Quest Monsters: The Withered World Announced For Switch 1 & 2

Alcea

Toriyama Artstyle livin on. I always found Trunsk to be dreamy..
(Wish KazukiTakashi's did too)

Only know DQM from the DS games which.. looked phenomenal.
Maybe I'll give this a shot.
Albeit I feel I missed out on too much DQ already....

Same with FF.. only played RoF, FVII and FVII:CC sofar...

@Grumblevolcano
Well if Disney can't..

But at least SE gave what they could give (leaving aside NieRReplicant)

Still good. I will give SE a place somewhere behind Capcom.
Cause some call em CapGod

Re: Square Enix Wants To Further Promote Its Multi-Platform Strategy, Especially On Switch 2

Alcea

Kingdom Hearts. Natively.

Go Ahead SE

@HubbaHunt
Yes!

@Znake
Its funny that the rich publisher use gamekeycards and the poor ones make full physicals.

What a weird world

@progx
True.
I bet Disney fears Nintendo as it has become more well kmown n successful.

Mario Movie must have crashed Disney so hard they will veto everything Nintendo.
Shame all KH charas a belong to Disney
(Also reason why KHIII was terrible... Disney wants creative control everywhere. We'll never have a game as good as KHII ever again)

Re: Japanese Charts: Tomodachi Life Overtakes Pokopia As The Best-Selling 2026 Release

Alcea

@acNewUpdates
Actually no. It doesn't.

Tomo > Poko

Japan is having fun it seems

@gcunit
Ignore. There is no "know"
Pokopia is a good game and it has a PrintMoneyLiscence attached

GKCs are still terrible. Pokopia is way too small to warrant anything and the sky is turquoise.

@UltimateOtaku91
With what exclusives anyways.

PS5 requires TV, constant power and feeding lotsa power.

How could that hope to win against the Switch2 .
It couldn't. Unless we are EU, where things are backwards.

Re: PSA: You Can Get Star Fox's Switch 2 Physical Release For Just $50 (US)

Alcea

I did like the DS version..

I wish we could play as krystal or some other character.
Maybe a ReverseRebirth Mode.

Well Falco is more likeable than Fox, so there is that

@WaveBoy
Yep
I recall seeing that on a demo 3ds in shop.

3d effect was too underutilized.
The DeathMountain in 3ds OoT Remake looked awesome aswell

@jfp
Oh there are retailers that always sell games like 10 bucks cheaper.

I think I never payed full price for physical games ever.

Re: Nintendo To Counter Switch 2's Global Price Hikes With Robust Software Lineup

Alcea

Well then Nintendo. What are you waiting for

@bnutz2k
True. Switch catalogue got alot (Where is SonicAdvance 1-3 ?!)
I never felt at home with Sony..
And Microsoft.. Well.. Nope (Aside Valve that is)

@Res462
I bought mine w.o. dock for 350.
Then bought a 3rd party Switch2dongle for 15 bucks
No regrets

@HatesCheese
GameKeyCards are madness tho.
If one bands with em, its a terrible decision.

Aside 128gb plus games they ought to vanish
(Can't even localUserMatch them, as they don'teven contwin the homescreen icon wat)

@cyberrb25
Bought mine for HW2and Pokop-

Ah right thats a lie. I have not gotten Pokopia yet.
So it appears I bought Sw2 for HW2 alone

Funny. Calamity sure must've impressed me
