@Jborgy COD has military aesthetics and is a 1st-person shooter. Did I change it?

Aww, that's a bummer to hear. Also, yet another roguelite for DLC from Nintendo. That's interesting. I can see why that would make sense, but it could get stale. Maybe with adjustments they can improve this DLC?

@Darylb88 Right! Maybe we'll even end up getting the same date, they just aren't sure yet.

@Darylb88 Good point!

This trailer had the right feels for me. I hope it comes to S2.
They did refer to it as FOTOR in a hashtag or website or something. And I feel like if it's being released now, after Disney's realignment, then it will probably be considered canon.

I love and will contribute to your optimism. Let's put out the energy to see these games come to Switch 2!

@Darylb88 We'll see though. Maybe it won't be a long delay.

Thanks for the reminder! I always partake in these. Free stuff can sometimes be fun. This first game is all right, so far.

@thenikdavies Hahaha, you and me both!

This was a cool reveal! And GameShare is actually an incredible feature and makes sense with a large S1 install base and an expensive S2. Maybe I can convince someone to join me on this, if I get it at some point.

I love stop motion so much. This looked beautiful and fun. Very excited we get a release on S2. I, too, wish I had people to enjoy co-op games with.

@Warioware Yeah, that's fair. Though I imagine the term is being used more to indicate that it's basically just a scrolling set, with very little to do other than continue from Point A to Point B. No mystery, no choice, etc. But your argument also seems valid.

Thanks for the review! Sounds fun but maybe a bit of a letdown. I could try it at a lower price, I guess.

I was bummed they didn't give us a proper new teaser. They could have fleshed out a bit more story or something, maybe a reveal of a new character or location. Even just new footage. Still, this did make me laugh. Haha. And I'm looking forward to it!

Yeah, I'd like a Clair Obscur S2 version. It's been recommended to me, but that's my only console. Happy for everyone involved with that game!

And hey, Nintendo got recognition for making a couple excellent games this year - so good on them, too. I assume Metroid will get some recognition next year as well, along with (hopefully) other exciting titles!

Mega Man games are too hard for me - I know, shame. But it's pretty cool that he's back! I hope this game is everything we've all dreamed it would be. Maybe it will get me on board, too.

@Picola-Wicola Oh man, I'm in the exact same boat. I've been thinking the same thing! I would like to try GameChat, too, but I got few friends. And the ones I do have either don't have S2 or don't have GameChat capabilities.

I'm not a horror fan, but I'm glad we're getting another quality game. I hope it does well!

I'll admit, they didn't sell me on the villain. Kravitz is cool, but this felt a little off for me. But there could be far more to the character and the story. And regardless, I'm still pumped for this game.

Bummer for no Switch 2. Hopefully that's just for now.

@Anti-Matter I see your point, but I do like both. I would also love some more original properties. I'll bet they don't sell as well though.

I'm so excited for this. I hope our release date is pretty darn close to the others though.

I'm even more excited for this now. Not just because Leon's in it. He's cool, but I'm glad this wasn't just fan service. He actually adds a different style of gameplay for half (?) of the game. I think that's a cool compromise to satisfy different fans of this series.

The trailer was insanely gruesome. But yeah, hoping for an S2 release. The more the merrier!

Seems to look pretty good on S2. Glad we get a current game release! Excited to try the demo!

Is this the spiritual successor to "The Princess and the Frog?"

It's cool that this reviewed so highly on the Xbox site. Glad we get a good game. It is funny that Microsoft keeps sending us surprise games instead of the ones everyone is asking for and/or the ones they promised.

Shh, let's not rush December!

Fine with me, I think. This is like the Zelda or Mario lists. The games are all pretty good to incredible. So it's not like it sucks for being below some excellent titles.

This is hilarious.

@Randomarcadedude @somnambulance You guys are spot on.

Also, this seems to continue GameStop's trend of gathering eyeballs however they can. I guess it makes sense for them. But yeah.

@Virtual_Man I never thought about that! Thanks!

@N00BiSH Say whaaaaat?? They're pals, or whatever! But I get what you're saying. And it's fine with just Wario. I only wondered.

@N00BiSH Is Waluigi in it?

@BaldB3lper78 If we build it?

@Smerd What do you mean? I don't own the S1 version, so if I were to buy the S2 Skyrim, I would pay $60. And the review is for that. This isn't solely a free upgrade, that's only a bonus for owners of the S1 version with a Switch 2.

And all of these subsequent releases of Skyrim are a sort of "upgrade", since the original title was released in 2011. And for this version of the game - especially when it's being labeled and marketed as an "enhanced" version - the reviewers expect a bit more.

@MamaSymphonia Yeah, good observations.

@Suketoudara That's true about the release timing, I think. I agree, it's weird.

Oh, sweet! I've never played either of these.
I know Rayman was on that fuzzy NSO background that was dissected - not sure how to describe it - so maybe we can still expect Smash and DK and whatever else.

@Smerd Only free if you're upgrading your previously purchased Switch 1 copy.

Also, I've been irked by some of the things in the "Cons" column before, too. But I think perhaps we give them a bit too much weight. I've seen 10/10 reviews on here with an item or two in that column. I think the reviewers just offer a few thoughts in those lists; I'm not sure they necessarily have a direct effect on the score.

Thanks a lot for this review. Though I'm disappointed. I still haven't played Skyrim and was looking forward to this opportunity, though I was definitely going to wait for a sale - ouch. But I wonder what I should do now; it sounds like maybe I should get the S1 version and upgrade it later, assuming they apply fixes. Do/can developers reduce the file size even after release? Does that memory/storage "go back" to your console?

@ShadLink They reviewed this VERSION of the game and felt it deserved a much lower score. It's even mentioned how the game's bones are still great fun. This happens all the time for re-releases. If Skyrim was released on a smart refrigerator or a calculator or something, like people do with Doom, would you expect it also get at least an 8/10 score? I assume those versions would be largely unplayable. I think part of the point of this review is to give us readers an idea of what to expect from this release of the game. I appreciate it.

@SalvorHardin Funny? Sure. Irritating? Definitely.

Yeah, could we at least get an acknowledgement that they're working on something for Nintendo? Game Awards?

Do I really need to preorder this? I could see it for the imitation one. But I'm fine with the cardboard headset. Those should stay available, right?

@ThisGuy215 Hmm, is that the case with all releases? 🤔 Certainly not with resolution. But is it with fps?

@AG_Awesome Well, maybe Game Awards for these, too. Yes! I haven't even opened my S1 copy yet.

@ThisGuy215 Well I mean, if it's docked, they could increase the output, right? They wouldn't have to worry about power. Everyone else does that. Is it the same here?

@AG_Awesome Oh! I own lots of those! That would be awesome. Thanks for the info!

@ThisGuy215 Good point. What about docked though?

@AZYotes5013 All consoles "below" Series S got 30fps?

@AG_Awesome Which LEGO games?

Groovy!
I did not realize games had to support GameChat. I thought it was a system- based thing.

Surely this should have been called "Re-SINKED", no?

@ljod82 Bellybutton wars! Innies vs. Outies, obviously.
