@larryisaman btw, the Generations bundle is only being sold until the end of March, then you can only buy the games individually afterward, so you might want to not wait on a sale and but the bullet on the Nintendo tax.

@fenlix nah, I think 6 was more like "action paired with more action" lol.

I do think you're underplaying the performance struggles in Leon's sections, if other reviews are to go by. Hearing that it mostly runs around 40 fps. I think something a lot of these NL reviews lack is specificity for this kind of stuff. Still won't deter me from playing on Switch 2, but I think that should be called out more, because for some people that would be a deal breaker, and that's the kind of thing we ultimately want insight from in these reviews.

Love that Goof Troop comes out the day before RE, getting that Mikami love.

@NintendoPete Inticreates has some awesome artists at the company, I think they could knock it out of the park with hd, non sprite art if it looks like it's hand drawn.

I have Japanese physical editions of both these games, the old versions, if they offer a switch 2 upgrade, is it compatible if it's from a different region?

@Strawblaze yes but "the other day" is a super subjective statement of time and I'm saying that it feels like a lot of those peoples expectations have changed.

@SuperEndriu yes and I wasnt saying anything bad about ppl asking for a refund. I'm not sure I'm following you.

@Strawblaze I don't know that I'm the exception. I think a LOT of us have got our eyes and brains rewired rom higher frame rates just in general from all media and games. So I took issue with you saying that just because the lot of us were ok with lower fps and jank on Switch 1 doesn't mean we aren't now taking issue with stuff. Btw been playing Ys X in 120 fps in handheld and it feels like my brain is getting a massage. As of late turning the camera too fast in even 60 fps games feels really framey to me. But shimmer has always hurt my eyes. It's exhausting for some reason. I just got off a airplane right now and tried out XCX again to see if I've been exaggerating and nope it's really bad. It feels like being drunk or something

@spiderman0616 I'll come back to it! Been a few weeks tho. I miss the pace of the original game. Sometimes I just feel like I'm in certain areas for way too long.

@Strawblaze what a ridiculous comment. In the last few years of Switch 1 I couldn't handle the issues you were describing. In fact, when I got XCX last year I realized that I absolutely cannot handle 30 fps in big open spaces anymore where you swing the camera around. My eyes have adjusted to higher frame rates elsewhere. So I was extremely excited for this update only to have that shimmering mess with my head in handheld. It's an issue. It shouldn't have been released like this. Stop blaming ppl who bought it and not the big corporation that released it.

@Strictlystyles dude I have the game. It makes my head hurt in handheld when I'm in an open space with all the shimmering. I play primarily in handheld and haven't touched the game again since the update. It's bad and I'm super sensitive to that stuff.

@JohnnyMind have you not played in handheld mode? Because if you're the kind of person who notices and prefers 60 fps, I have no clue how you would not notice the flickering and shimmering in handheld. Some people don't notice this stuff, but if you have a hard preference for 60 fps as you said, I'm not sure how you're noticing this issue

@SuperEndriu it's because people have their identity so closely tied in with Nintendo that they defend them like they are a real, close and personal friend. It's so disturbing lol

@Strictlystyles omg stop defending the big corporation, they aren't your friend. The game has a lot of problems in handheld mode with flickering. Let people complain about a legit issue and get their refund.

Was enjoying FF7 then right after Aerith gets captured and you return to her village I just dropped off. Just started to feel pretty drawn out.

Games could literally be part of the subscription service like the 99 games, and not in the app. Complete bullcrap

Yeah but what studio would they use for the sequel? Everybody involved in Bayonetta and Nier and Astral Chain have left Platinum.

They should be offered thru the NSO like they do with DLCs or the 99 games, as a separate download that isn't on the NSO app. I doubt there are many extras in these roms to make separate purchases anything other than greed. That said, if I'm being generous, maybe they did some number crunching and selling these is part of a push to keep down raising Switch 2 hardware prices given everything going on.

@pikachupikachup you get a discount if, like me, you only ever bought the original version, not the anniversary edition, or anniversary upgrade. For me it's 20 USD to upgrade permanently on the eshop

@nessisonett genocide deniers? Source needed lol. I mean if that was true, then you're a bad person for even playing a pirated version of the game for free. Edit: oh wait I think this is an Ethan Klein reference from you. I forgot about all that. i think that's an oversimplification to say he's a genocide denier. He's both spoken against what Israel is doing but also said some stuff that feels like he's going "lite" on Israel. But I think that's prob out of context. I dunno man, but I guess you got a point.

This game is only 9 gb. An absolute sin there's no option for this to be cheaply on a small card. Almost literally everything is a game keycard.

Great collection, just a bummer no Saturn Bomberman is here.

They'll prob try to censor it. Just expecting it as this point. Hope not!

Concerned about how this game is going to run on Switch 2 once it hits those big open spaces. The console struggles when that happens vs smaller spaces. You can see the difference in Street Fighter matches compared to the single player stuff. MH Stories 3 didn't run well in the demo. Pragmata ran really great in those small rooms and corridors. Still going to take my chances and get this on Switch 2.

Yeah probably financial year 2026 meaning they're probably coming out in Feb 2027, lol. Incredibly excited for both these games, but rather they take the time to make them outstanding ports.

Yeah the demo unsold me from getting this at launch. Sometimes the game was 60 sometimes it was like 45 fps sometimes it was 30, then it'd drop lower than 30 (when you get to the castle area and you swing your camera past where all the market NPCs it gets choppy). Also was disappointed in how soft everything looked both in handheld and on tv. On the other hand Pragmata completely sold me, was impressed by that game. Switch 2 seems to have an issue with rendering things out when you're in a large open space. Cyberpunk is a good example, when you're indoors on a story mission the game runs awesome and looks literally unbelievably great, otherwise it's rough, in the city and the desert. Soft rez, choppy frames.

Silksong by far. BUT but but with the increased difficulty the long run back to some bosses or mini bosses just straight up sucks it big time and tarnishes a wonderful game. Bothers way more than Dark Souls 1, which is what I think they're going for. I never could finish Hollow Knight, would lose interest and then come back to it after too much time and forget what I was doing lol. Did that like 3 restarts.

@jco83 there is! I played it earlier today. It's...ok. text is way too small in handheld mode for this to be comfortable tho. I mean what's the point of having it on Switch 2 if it hurts to read in handheld.

Game keycard. Only 1080 and 30fps in BOTH handheld and docked. Harrrrrrrd pass. There is no reason that handheld and docked should have the same specs...low ones at that. So sick of this. Cheaply ported, unoptimized game keycards.

It likely means they wanted to boost the sales of this game, by slipping this comment out into the community. It could mean literally anything.

@Serena_ also for the record I don't mind keycards in the cases where their file sizes are much beyond a 64gb card, like FF7. That's all the keycards should have been allowed for. I think that's a perfectly fine solution.

Does anyone know why Bomberman 1 and 2 are Famicom versions? Generally curious. This was an instant buy for me, even tho I'm bummed there is STILL no way for me to ever play Saturn Bomberman.

" Even cloaked vessels are analogues to submerged vessels like German U-boats from WWII and submarines from naval battles that are difficult to detect." How that in my decades of watching OG/90s Trek, and recognizing the naval influence, have I never realized this was what the cloaking was referencing? I feel like an idiot.

@Serena_ the "download the game from your disc on to your hard drive" was always annoying but not the end of the world, you don't need to be online to do it. The day 1 patch thing is also icky sometimes but it is greatly over estimated how many games, PlayStation especially, don't work without it. There's a website called DoesItPlay. Ps4 and PS5 around 10 percent hat won't work without a patch. Xbox was around 40 percent. Switch was well under the PS stats. But even with PS selling consoles without drives or having optional drive add ons they still sell physical games with the games on the disc. The Granblue Relink game from the Direct for example has full on disc version even tho the previous version is upgradeable with expansion dlc. Basically EVERYTHING that is coming out on Switch 2 are keycards. Even Xbox, which is a dead console moved into a subscription based platform has more true physicals released for it.

This is a game keycard too. Switch 2 is speed running the end of real physical games.

Ughhhh its another game keycard. Even this new version is getting a true physical on PS5. So sick of this

@DarkTron I linked that because I remember reading it, thought it was interesting, and then literally the only and next game to have actual in it since then was Cyberpunk. Along the way I've seen more and more articles about games not being allowed for release in the west, that had similar counterparts, often from the same series, in years previous. I've seen content changes to swimsuits and stuff like PS had been doing during the first half of the Switch 1 era.so I was shocked when Cyberpunk came out uncensored in the west, but that seems like a one off exception, because they knew it was important to have a game like that at launch, with zero controversy. And yes those Hentai AI slop games should not be on the eshop. It's the lowest of the low shovelware. But I still think that article is important because of the date, 2023, the lack of nudity in games since (not a single shovelware hentai game had nudity) and where we are today

@Jeronan you are literally not listening to me about the skus. I'm not responding to you anymore

@Filthy I hope the issues have been resolved, I mean the new FE looks all but confirmed to be done by the Koei Tecmo team in that engine I forget the name of so I have a lot of hope. But the dialog in that trailer was pretty bad lol. It reminded me of that Final Fantasy trailer from a few years ago where the guy kept talking about killing chaos over and over. But whatever I'm super excited

@DarkTron dude that is not what is being said in the article. Not at all in fact it is implied, maybe, that they were not allowed having 2 skus and can't legally discuss it. There are more cases than Neptunia, Corpse Party is another. Neptunia had censorship in that game where they rode dogs or something, and then there the rereleases of old games that aren't coming in the west now. Nintendo has non-issue with these games years ago, but they do now, meaning something has changed with their content policies. Hentai slop on the eshop had nudity, now there isnt. If you want to know more about games not getting released here, check out the Physical Paradise YouTube channel. Dude is constantly talking about games you cant get here. So yes, there is Japanese censorship that happens only in Japan, based in their law and that's one thing. Even their adult films have to blur genitals. And then there is the increasingly conservative western censorship that has been happening. I'm just dumbfounded how you don't see this.

Here is a link to a dev talking about Nintendo's policies being more restrictive, 3 years ago in regards to nudity https://nintendoeverything.com/developer-says-nintendo-no-longer-allows-games-showing-uncensored-breasts/#nnn

@Jeronan I don't know how many times I have to say this in the thread, the eshop hentai game AI slop NO LONGER has any sort of nudity in them. Not even partial. It's just fetish stuff now. You cannot compare it to dispatch. But what you can compare is the fact that many of those game 3 years ago had actual nudity in them, so something in Nintendo's content policies changed. That is most likely why there is NOT an uncensored version on Switch. I wish you were right, and this is a laziness thing, but it does not seem to be the case.

If Fire Emblem Fortunes Weave is half as good as 3 Houses, I'll finally be really glad I got a Switch 2. 2025 did nothing for me software -wise. If Raiders comes out this year, and Duskbloods actually runs good and the online works well for it, I'll be effing over the moon. I'm actually pretty excited for the Nintendo lineup this year, when you toss in Tomodachi, that's 4 games I'm pretty excited to play.

@Filthy Engage had way more issues than just the localization. The story itself literally felt like it was written by a 12 year old. Same for the character designs and personalities. The localization mostly just messed around with making certain options not romantic in nature at the end of the game. Which, in the case of Anna, was obviously a good thing they changed from the Japanese version. But then they went overboard and I'm confused why they de-romanticized some of the others. Still, that wasn't really made the game...."stupid?" Lol, maybe that's the word to use. Though I did have a blast with the combat and it was prob the most fun I had of any game in 2023. But man oh man was that dlc bad.

@Pillowpants you and me both.

@Jeronan I still don't get your point here. I think you're missing the context of what I was saying when I was responding to the other individual. They were saying the reason there was only one censored version on Switch was because Adhoc didn't have enough money to make 2 versions of it for Switch. They wee implying that they used the Japanese censored version for Switch because it was more affordable for adhoc. And I was saying if that was the case, there would have not been a PS5 censored and uncensored version and just a censored version. Therefore, the Switch having only a censored version, must be because Nintendo was not allowing an uncensored version in the west, not because they couldn't afford to make another version. I've also said in this thread that Cyberpunk seems to be an exception, because they needed that big 3rd party game at launch with no controversy. At the time I was shocked it was uncensored at launch, with how increasingly strict they've been getting in around the last three years.

@Friendly ok, this is first critical response to what I've been saying that I think has a bunch of merit to it. Totally possible. Also on your other reply, I am familiar with the differences in censorship I. Japan and the west. Like they're regular adult movies have to blur genitalia. I guess I should have been more clear that I'm talking about the western censorship, I've had no confusion as why it was censored in Japan.

@Jeronan "Yeah Nintendo doesn't allow a separate uncensored Western release.....
I think Witcher 3 and Cyberpunk 2077 will want to have a word with you."

What are you talking about or responding to?I I literally never said anything like that. I feel like I'm going crazy with people on here literally not reading what I'm actually writing.

@eaglebob345 I understand that. But years ago this was not the case, with the differences in the versions. Meaning something has changed in how strict they're being in general. It isn't a one to one comparison, you're right, but as a general shift it's a valid thing for me to point out. There was article or interview a few years where a dev stated that Nintendo was no longer accepting submissions with nudity in them. I wish I could who it was, my head tells me it was compile heart or similar. Also years ago, those hentai games had actually nudity in them, but they haven't for years. So in general they've gotten more conservative here.
