Yes. The move to increase the Switch 2's price will largely decimate the current momentum it has built. It will take a bevy of genuinely compelling software to reignite its rise. Pokemon next year will, of course, significantly increase Switch 2 sales numbers. I don't, however, think that 140-150 million console sales is realistic like they were with the Switch 1. Probably more like 70 or 80 million.
Absolutely flabbergasted and elated that an actual LoZ movie is coming to fruition. Easily my most anticipated piece of media right now. Movie, game, show, music or otherwise. Can't wait!
I still haven't bought a Switch 2 yet. Nothing's really piqued my interest yet. Starfox and the Ocarina remake will change that, but I'm just now playing Prime 4 and I still have Rhythm Heaven and Professor Layton to play later this year.
These silly resolutions and odd shortcomings wouldn't be a thing if the Nintendo Voice Chat wasn't forced on every developer to have to implement. Otherwise those resources could go to running games at proper resolutions.
I had hoped this was still happening after not hearing anything for so long. Saber has a solid track record on the Switch so I have a good feeling that this port will be top notch. If everything comes together, I will grab a copy asap.
I think Sony needs to worry about Sony, Microsoft needs to worry about making games. Nintendo's dominating right now and everyone knows it. No reason to constantly cry about it.
You picked the worst time to come back. This season is so much worse than last. They took away everything that was good last season and added a load of stupid stuff no one likes. Even the pros.
I assume it would be Donkey Kong next. The character work is finished as he already exists the Mario Bros. Movie. Not to mention that a DK section is being built at the new Epic Universe park in Orlando to coincide with the Mario section in Super Nintendo World.
Lovely game. Played the Switch version and loved it. The performance options that were patched into the game made it much more playable and look just fine.
Am I the only one who has built only like 2 things and that was because I had too? Lol Love the game and Zelda is my favorite series but I'm not really into building, crafting in my games. I just use horses and the glider. The story's great, probably won't worry about upgrading batteries either.
@Ryu_Niiyama The new characters and other accessories is really what keeps the game fresh. I never played much as I wasn't into the building aspect but, since they have released Zero-Builds, I've really been enjoying the game. It feels completely different.
I just got Piccolo and alot of Star Wars characters so I'm good. I don't like the design of this Spider-Man anyways. Gimme Spectacular Spider-Man and I'm down.
Played Villeaf a bit on the Switch with my daughter. It was actually pretty fun so this one might deserve a once through. Hopefully it performs better technically, than the last one though.
@nukatha Wow. I didn't know that. I wonder if there was any of the 'high memory' modes were used with Xenoblade Chronicles X. It had the extra download booters.
No voice acting to speak of. A couple of grunts or yells here and there. Really straight forward game. Even more so an NES style game than some might think.
What shills! Hahaha! This game is a 7 at best. The Wii version has better graphics and it was only an 8 then. This is better than Star Allies to be certain, but other than that, this is about as lackluster as Kirby gets. Especially after the masterpiece that was Forgotten Land. Would have rather seen Planet Robobot get a Switcheroo build.
FF Tactics is a great game, but honestly I don't know if it needs a remaster. It's still streamed regularly. I think just a modern re-release would be better.

Re: TMNT: Splintered Fate Dev Says "There's More To Come" As Roguelike Action Game Hits Major Sales Milestone
It's a really fun game. Been enjoying it thoroughly. The dialogue text gets a little lengthy at times. Other than that, it's solid. I'd give it an 8.3

Re: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate Teases New Playable Character
My guess is Splinter. Makes the most sense.
Re: Mario Kart World Has Been Updated To Version 1.2.1, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
This has to be a filler/spinoff mario kart game with MK9 still coming down the pipeline. It's nowhere near the game that Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is.

I'm literally about to go to my library to BORROW some games. Clowns like this ruin it for all of us. Smdh
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Mario Kart World?
It's a solid 6. No more, no less. I would say that MK8Deluxe is a better game in pretty much everyway.

Re: Beyond Good & Evil 20th Anniversary Edition Officially Announced
Whatever happened to the sequel? Is it just vaporware now?
Re: Memory Pak: Making Contact With The "Ungoogleable" Game I Couldn't Quite Remember
For me it was Master System and Genesis games when I was young. Had an NES and Super Nintendo so the Sega stuff wasn't nearly as prominent in my home.
Re: Poll: Which Dormant Nintendo Franchise Would You Most Like To See Return?
Golden Sun for me.

Re: Gollum Publisher Daedalic Entertainment Shuts Down Internal Development
@JohnnyC You should also check out Aragorn's Quest on the Wii. Such an underrated gem. It's a really good game.

Re: Sonic Superstars Developed By Original Designer's Studio
Something tells me that Sega wanted the "deal" with the Sonic Mania devs to fall through. Otherwise, they could have made it happen.

Re: Microids Announces Smurfs Sequel, Launching On Switch Later This Year
Played Villeaf a bit on the Switch with my daughter. It was actually pretty fun so this one might deserve a once through. Hopefully it performs better technically, than the last one though.
Re: Tales Of Symphonia Remastered Update Incoming, Here Are The Patch Notes
60fps or no dice.
Re: Zelda Boss Wanted Certain Tears Of The Kingdom Areas In BOTW, Prevented By Wii U's Limitations
@nukatha Wow. I didn't know that. I wonder if there was any of the 'high memory' modes were used with Xenoblade Chronicles X. It had the extra download booters.
Re: Zelda Boss Wanted Certain Tears Of The Kingdom Areas In BOTW, Prevented By Wii U's Limitations
@rjejr I think the main thing is the WiiU only had 1 GB of RAM available for game development, the Switch has 3.
Re: Nintendo Switch System Update 16.0.3 Is Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
If I could find a job as stable as the Switch is, I'd never FALL asleep on the clock again! 😅
Re: Random: Think You Know BOTW's Hyrule? Test Your Zelda Knowledge With This Map Quiz
22,384. I haven't played the game in at least 6 months so I'm good with that score.
Re: Talking Point: Which Is Your Favourite Nintendo Controller? Every Nintendo Pad Ranked
Wii U Pro Controller for me. Still the most comfortable pad to hold in your hands.
Re: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Cowabunga Collection Switch Update Arrives Today

Re: Poll: Will You Be Getting The New Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Switch OLED?
Can't justify a new, without a power increase, this late in the game. However, "Super Switch" will be day one.

Re: Poll: How Many 3DS Consoles Have You Owned?
3. 2 OG's and a "New" XL. My son had a 2DS but I didn't buy that for him so I didn't count it.
Re: Bloodstained: Curse Of The Moon Double Pack Physical Switch Release Announced
Hopefully it does come across. I have the first game digitally, but would love to own both physically.
Re: Nintendo Highlights Classic Super Mario Games In New Switch Online Graphic
@syrupdash They just didn't talk about it because it's not available on the Switch yet. I'm sure it will be soon.
Re: Bandai Namco Apologises For Tales Of Symphonia Remastered Issues On Switch
Hopefully this means canning this inferior 30fps version and updating to the 60fps Gamecube version.

Re: Random: Fan-Made Game Mixes Classic Sonic With Donkey Kong Country
Kinda gives me Rocko's Modern Life vibes. I dig it, with a bit more refinement, it would be a solid foundation for a full game.
Re: Wait, Did Square Enix Just Tease A Final Fantasy Tactics Remaster?
