@Vyacheslav333 Like I said, it's two images that are censored. To me that's not much of an actual downgrade unless you desperately want to see male butt cheeks and big boobs covered with frosting and strawberries.
@GabrielBacakPS None of these designs actually look the same. They just have the same origins, being based on Japanese mythology. In Palworld's case they actually look blatantly similar with parts of models being identical.
@Jeronan Digimon came more than a year after Pokémon. You can't just look at the US release dates. Pokémon started development years earlier than Digimon.
@Vyacheslav333 It's not a big deal to me or anyone who doesn't base their purchase decision off of two or so images bring censored. But as of recently Nintendo of America has been quite stingy with anime nudity in some Japanese games and they either got rejected to be released there or had to censor some parts. It's overall easier to have the same version in all regions on one console so some devs decide to also release the censored version in Japan.
@MrDocena 15 million would be on par with the first Switch in a similar timeframe. Not really ambitious. More like expected minimum. I expect 17 or 18 million.
@Zyph They said that they may record it with our consent. You can use game chat and still not be recorded by them.
Many commenters here seem to not understand that.
@1UP-HUSKY Some actually do sell it cheaper like Bravely Default. If they used actual cartridges it'd be way more expensive for them and the retail version would either be at least 60€ or wouldn't exist. The cartridges are genuinely expensive.
@gazamataz I think he just explained why summer is a great time to launch. Other times in the year have their own reasons why they may be great for that.
Many people seem to think it's exclusively a news app. But it's not. I go there to look at cool artwork, read fun comic strips, listen to cool live covers of Nintendo music, especially Xenoblade, watch some cute and funny videos and other stuff.
@Jemae Those 300k Switches sold at launch reported by Famitsu did not include the my Nintendo store, as Famitsu can't get data from there. This here is still much bigger.
@ZeldaCupcake If you read the article, you'll see that the rumour is that it'll be on PS5 day one. And it's existence is not just a rumour anymore with the screenshots from the devs website.
@Anti-Matter No it's not worse. By far most games already work just fine per Nintendo's website and all first party games except for Labo VR work on Switch 2. Only a tiny portion of over 15000 games still has notable issues to be addressed.
@Friendly Neither Elden Ring nor Baldur's Gate 3 are something completely new. Elden Ring has Dark Souls like combat and gameplay in an open world where you can go wherever you want from the start (like in BotW) and Baldur's Gate 3 is just what the first two games did but much better. Your decisions influence your adventure significantly more but the concept and idea is the same.
@LXP8 No they did not get rid of Sega Megadrive games. That wouldn't even make sense. They just added three games. The current NSO app doesn't have Sega with it's gallery listed in that section either.
@N00BiSH I always had fun with it. Never really felt tedious or anything as I already loved just sailing from island to island and it gave me more reason to explore.
@Bushi @Stwert I'm talking about Nintendo games. Their first party games are all on cartridge. Game key cards are a significantly better alternative to a code in a box at least.
@Bushi You've fallen for a lot of misinformation. Not a single game is $90, only one game is $80 and so far all Switch 2 games that were announced are fully on cartridge including the Switch 2 Editions of Switch 1 games.
@RupeeClock I've read that Nintendo only provides 8GB and 64GB cartridges so that they can lower the prices quicker by not having that many different sizes available. 8GB is for indies and 64GB for AAA games. Everyone else in between will choose game key cards to be able to either sell it for a lower price like Bravely Default or just to be cheap. If there was a 16GB card, they'd take that one.

Re: Marvelous USA Confirms Its Switch 2 Physical Releases Will Contain The "Full Game"

Here you can see how games fare with backwards compatibility so far. Most games are still being tested, have not shown any issues so far though.
