@Wood_Stick Cyberpunk does not run well docked in any kind of open space. It feels made for the VRR that was never implemented in docked mode.

Team Sonic is just clueless with the decisions they make for Sonic. They've needed new leadership for a long time.

Just give it a hard mode already. Take the time and balance a hard mode. That with this new system would make this awesome. Make it to where I don't feel like I have to constantly cycle Pokemon so they don't get too strong and that I really need to use elemental weaknesses.

Hard pressed to think of another Nintendo first party release that I've ever been less interested in than this game. Ugly aesthetic and super not fun looking controls. This was obviously an internal prototype for mouse controls that they developed a little more to fill in a release schedule gap.

@RiasGremory they're a lot bigger than most amiibo (saw them in store together and they are really big compared to the new Zelda ones next to them). But 40 dollars is effin insane. The general price increase to even the new Nintendo Zelda amiibo completely killed my ammibo buying habit. You should at least get some of the paid dlc on these.

@CutchuSlow Konami owns a lot outside of video games - like pacinko parlours and stuff

@Gatorclops pretty sure this a legit and long running org? Isn't like this is a Smash Bros tournament lol...as I think you're referencing with your comments.

@Dee123 I don't think that's true at all these days. Everyone from 6 to 60 knows about speed running.my gf's kid at a very young age discovered it and loved watching. I've had people a lot older than me at work mention finding speed runs after discovering I play games. It's a concept that explains itself in name.

I've been conditioned to expect nothing from this company at this point. If a gun were put to my head I'd guess something on the level of the Mario day from a few years back. Announce movie news, announce some merch, probably go over games with Mario on Switch and how they are on sale, an event at the parks, etc. A quick 7 minutes.

Makes sense these don't offer upgrades or save file transfers. However no physical release in the west for Switch 1 or 2 or at least English on the card as an import option is so scummy. We are big reason this trilogy became the breakout hit the series had been waiting for.

Survey isn't working. It isn't just the link above, tried from a few different articles. It either got pulled or the servers got overwhelmed.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

@commentlife same sentiment tho Sakurai has grown as a dev since then annnnns the original Air Ride wasn't supposed to be directed by him. He took the project back over late in development. But yeah the original isn't great...potentially not all that good

@TheExile285 another reason I was bummed with the Direct yesterday. I assumed they were saving that announcement for that Direct, a Trails Switch 2 Edition. Guessing it's another company they didn't give a dev kit to until super late (maybe they only had time for Ys?).

Better get release dates for Nintendo games that were promised to me in April for the 450 dollar console I bought. This is getting ridiculous.

You wouldn't know a new Nintendo console launched this year from this Direct. Had basically no expectations for this, didn't anticipate any big announcements. My only slight expectation was some new footage of Eldin Ring and FF7 and releases dates. And this Direct still disappointed me lol. Bare minimum not met.

Porta of old games. Release dates of FF and Elden. Some super small new stuff. Nothing exciting. Game keycards.

@Elbarbo why would we have one in August lol

@LazyDaisy or they're testing crossplay. What a weird comment for you to make.

@Otimus yeah it's super annoying. DF is essentially a consumer report giving evaluations on stuff many should find of value. Complaining about DF the same as buying a new TV or car etc without reading a consumer report about what they're getting. To top it off they are generally really positive about Nintendo. But lord forbid they point out someway that Nintendo sort of shorts us (or the Switch 2 screen). Most people's comments here actually echo the final video analysis as well (2 systems for 2 demographics of players).

@kingbk and if you watched the video you'd know this was the final verdict. Exactly what you said.

Survey sucks, does not compare them to physical at all.

@N00BiSH have you seen Nerrels new Switch 2 review with an imperson of Richard in it? Where he goes inside the Switch 2 lol

@Shmoo they're a consumer report style channel for consumers. You should expect better from your products.

No gyro + no physical is a no buy for me. If one of those things was in it I'd consider buying.

@Dom_31 same concern here

@cedarhyped surprised it got that score. The game is an absolute mess in everyway. Story is a mess, performance is a mess, gameplay is a mess due to the kajiu style creature control and the camera not working well, stage levels are meandering etc. thought that was the general consensus.

Bayonetta 3 launched to widespread critical acclaim?

@JohnnyMind not confusing if you can I download something within the app itself

@LastFootnote Mario Wonder WILL get a Switch 2 paid edition with more levels. Id bet money they release it in October, otherwise I think they'd have done a free upgrade already. Id pay 20 bucks for the upgrade easy.

@LastFootnote Mario is a great game. Loved it. But it needed more challenge levels or a better post game with challenging stuff with more platforming in it. Would have paid handsomely for dlc. It also does that Nintendo thing where most of it is easy then they do one insanely hard level. Just give us a bunch to unlock after the campaign is over. Pikmin I fell off from because my cat passed away when it came out and now I associate the game with him passing so it'll be prob years until I touch it again. Only got a little ways into it. Showtime...stayed away from that one.

@LastFootnote Mindless as in not really having to try to work things out or having to "platform" to "do the thing"...like a lot of modern Nintendo games. Nintendo has all the aesthetics, gameplay concepts and gameplay feel I crave compared to anyone else...but lately they're terrified to give the player any kind of true situational resistance thru skill or problem solving to complete an objective.

It looks soooooooooo much better now. I bought it recently and was really disappointed by how soft the Switch 2 Edition looked. Was really confused because I had watched review footage of it and thought it looked good....then figured I must have been confused by PC footage or something - but nope this was what I was expecting.

Looks a little too mindless for me. Hoping I'm wrong and getting it day 1.

@RudyC3 your game saves are not saved on micro SD cards, they're specifically saved to your console's internal memory, so I'm not sure what you're talking about

I really don't trust any micro SD that inst Samsung or SanDisk. Wonder how these will be? Really want a 1tb card and there have not been any available from the brands I trust

Fantasy Life I Switch 2 Edition is the only Switch 2 game I'm finding worth playing for more than a weekend (Kart World, Cyberpunk and Raidou fall into the couple days only category). Pretty disappointed in the Switch 2 Edition graphics and how soft the visuals are and how low rez the assets seem but the game is fun. Saved the launch for me. Oh and Splatoon 3.

Hope this fixes Salmon Run issues.

@Buizel it's not nonsense. Very fun for a weekend then that's about it. A bland open world that feels like an afterthought and not a feature; a fun new Knockout Tour mode that unfortunately feels like you're playing the same races over and over; adding 24 players to the reg versus mode makes the online play feel more random than 8 and a lot less fun also it's FULL of connector tracks; lacks track content compared to 8 (before the expansion base even). Compare that to how feature rich something like Fantasy Life I is. Huge disappointment.

@OrtadragoonX Some 2D games require the stick, both Gal Guardians do.

@Pillowpants it's a 450 dollar console that was marketed as being a tech forward screen. Nintendo talked up the HDR (it is essentially fake HDR) talked up the 120 fps and VRR capable screen ...only to have motion blur issues, and to top it off purposefully didn't send out review units before launch. Quit defending the mega billion dollar corporation.

How is that a bargain price?

An extremely ugly game that looks super uncomfortable to play control wise. Not sure what they're thinking with this. Should be a mini game in Welcome Tour.

@PeteW unless you're a crazy diehard Kart fan or hungry to play one of the Switch 1 games that gets its FPS fixed thru back compatibly I'd wait. I'm honestly kind of bored with mine as a "new console." I don't think you're missing out and I definitely prefer my OLED model screen.

@Kiz3000 you kind of answered your own question. Yes the issue is that the games are old at launch.

@wizzgamer they explain the issue with the screen and show the issue in slow motion. I don't get what's not to understand.

@Maxz thanks for the correction

@Jintenzo they had executive titles...but in marketing and campaigns and stuff like that. However I do think this title is misleading.
