@Cakefish Nintendo have nothing to do with this. CA was the one who pulled the EU release and he was the one who decided when to finally release it in the EU.
Xerneas is top of the meta in ZA a PM that is usually never used. Azumarill is insanely popular in S&V for Raids despite it never seeing much play in previous gens.
As always its your choice as to what PM you pick. Me i tend to avoid repeating myself outside of keeping my favs on my team.
@Dogorilla Yeah its Pokemon meets Animal Crossing so i thinks its going to just print endless money for Nintendo. In fact i have a feeling its going to be one of the biggest sellers this year.
For me the lack of extras like screen filters, borders, changing aspect ratios, rewind and stuff bring it down especially for its price. Like yeah the games are still great as ever and seeing bug fixes along with events included is nice but it feels very bare bones with NSO games offering more.
@Protion9 Bare bones as you can't and NSO games have more options. It appears event PM are included what's nice but yeah its £17 for a Rom what honestly doesn't look great on the Switch's far bigger screens.
@OmnitronVariant Its fine in handheld. The big "issues" are pop in and flickering two things that existed exactly the same prior. The increased res highlights it more hence why the mouth breathing PC elitists on reddit are crying over it.
Most of the complaints are coming from those who have been emulating it at 4K/60fps elsewhere and so are too used to that. Basically PC elitist being typical PC elitist and gaslighting others into thinking there's an issue.
@Faucet The download is over a 1GB. I don't know why you're arguing with people who have actually downloaded it and clearly know more then you on the matter.

Re: Open-World Survival 'Smalland: Survive The Wilds' Announced For Switch 2
@Zeebor15 Pretty sure this predates Grounded. Its been on PS5 for years.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Pokémon Pokopia?
Based on the 10ish hours i've played i would say 9/10.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (7th March)
Pokopia and finishing up RE Requiem
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Pokémon Pokopia?
@VoidofLight Oh i get that logic its the people who just refuse to buy any game that isn't 100% physical i eye roll at.
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Pokémon Pokopia?
The anti-GKC people really aren't going to have much of a Switch 2 library this Gen.
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Pokémon Pokopia?
Put around 6 hours into it so far and its been excellent.
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Pokémon Pokopia?
@VinzClortho1981 The catchphrase was never true and was dropped well before Gen 8. Having over 1000 PM and balancing around that is just not viable.
Re: PSA: Stardew Valley - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition Is Now Live In Europe
@Cakefish Nintendo have nothing to do with this. CA was the one who pulled the EU release and he was the one who decided when to finally release it in the EU.
Re: Feature: "I've Always Loved Doing Guttural Screams" - Angela Sant'Albano On Joining The World Of Resident Evil
She done a fantastic job as Grace.

@Dogorilla Yeah its Pokemon meets Animal Crossing so i thinks its going to just print endless money for Nintendo. In fact i have a feeling its going to be one of the biggest sellers this year.

Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Pokémon Pokopia
@Dogorilla I mean they want to sell Switch 2's and this will sell Switch 2's.
Re: Review: Pokémon Pokopia (Switch 2) - One Of The Most Enticing Pokémon Games Ever
Got pre-ordered and installed. Really hyped for game especially giving the talent behind it.
Re: Best Pokémon Games Of All Time
Legends ZA at worst? Yeah stopped reading right there. Talk about bandwagon jumping.
Re: Feature: 30 Pokémon You Probably Forgot That Deserve A Second Chance
Dracovish was pretty big in the competitive scene back in Gen 8 and Victini got its own film. I would say both done ok.
Re: Final: What's Your Favourite Pokémon Ever? - Pick From Our 9 Poll Winners
Charizard always and forever.
Re: Pokémon Winds & Waves Will Be Released "Exclusively" For Switch 2
@Dyna-Z Well it will be held back if it targeted last gen Switch. Its also running on a new engine and i suspect that engine doesn't support Switch 1.
Re: Poll: So, Which Starter Will You Choose In Pokémon Winds & Waves?
Gecqua but as ever i need to see their final forms before i make the real choice.
Re: Yes, Pokémon FireRed & LeafGreen Are Getting Home Support
@Metazoxan Worth noting Home is a one ticket nothing can transfered to FR/LG. Still at least we have easy access to Deoxys now for Home.
Re: Yes, Pokémon FireRed & LeafGreen Are Getting Home Support
@Protion9 Bare bones as you can't and NSO games have more options. It appears event PM are included what's nice but yeah its £17 for a Rom what honestly doesn't look great on the Switch's far bigger screens.
Re: New Pokémon Pokopia Trailer Introduces Even More Poké Pals
Got it pre-loaded. Really excited for it.
Re: Pokémon Winds & Waves Announced For Switch 2, Launching Next Year
@Dom_31 New engine helps.
Re: Pokémon Winds & Waves Announced For Switch 2, Launching Next Year
Looks fantastic and underwater exploration is pure hype. Open world looks pretty dense visually and a massive jump from S&V.
Re: Review: Resident Evil Requiem (Switch 2) - Action And Horror Combine In A Series Highlight
@johnedwin Did you read the full review? Also are we still crying over 8/10 scores?
Re: Review: Resident Evil Requiem (Switch 2) - Action And Horror Combine In A Series Highlight
Got it already downloaded on my Pro and can't wait to play it. Glad its made Switch 2 day 1 and seems to be a good port.
Re: Fans Are Asking Nintendo To Refund Xenoblade Chronicles X's Switch 2 Upgrade
@Rice Let me guess Oliver is the one who said it?
The issues are the same issues that plagued the original release its just this version highlights them more.
Re: Fans Are Asking Nintendo To Refund Xenoblade Chronicles X's Switch 2 Upgrade
@OmnitronVariant Its fine in handheld. The big "issues" are pop in and flickering two things that existed exactly the same prior. The increased res highlights it more hence why the mouth breathing PC elitists on reddit are crying over it.

Most of the complaints are coming from those who have been emulating it at 4K/60fps elsewhere and so are too used to that. Basically PC elitist being typical PC elitist and gaslighting others into thinking there's an issue.
Wouldn't be shocked if DF give it glowing praise.
Re: Poll: Will You Be Getting Pokémon FireRed Or LeafGreen On Switch?
It lands a day before my birthday so i'm tempted to say screw it and treat myself to both.
Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite Gen 9 Pokémon?
Tinkaton is objectively the best.
Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite Gen 8 Pokémon?
Regieleki by far. Such a cool PM and insanely fast.
Re: Pokémon FireRed And LeafGreen Officially Revealed For Switch
Hopefully they allow us to use the events they gave out for it so we can get Lugia, Ho-Oh and such.
Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite Gen 7 Pokémon?
Salazzle for me.
Re: Hands On: Xenoblade Chronicles X & Mira Are Even More Magnificent On Switch 2
@OmnitronVariant SwitchUp already covered what they did.
Re: Hands On: Xenoblade Chronicles X & Mira Are Even More Magnificent On Switch 2
@Faucet The 3mb is the licence key. 3mb wouldn't be able to get 60fps, 4K, better loading and better textures.
Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite Gen 6 Pokémon?
Greninja. In my top 3 PM ever and is my 2nd fav shiny (Charizard tops that).
Re: Rumour: A Monster Hunter Wilds Switch 2 Port Is Coming, A Fresh Datamine Suggests
@LeJuiceCup 4 Ultimate remaster with modern controls, a visual uplift and 60fps would be amazing.
Re: Rumour: A Monster Hunter Wilds Switch 2 Port Is Coming, A Fresh Datamine Suggests
Wilds is a technical mess so it will be interesting to see how the Switch 2 handles it.
Re: Hands On: Xenoblade Chronicles X & Mira Are Even More Magnificent On Switch 2
@Faucet The download is over a 1GB. I don't know why you're arguing with people who have actually downloaded it and clearly know more then you on the matter.
Re: Hands On: Xenoblade Chronicles X & Mira Are Even More Magnificent On Switch 2
Put a few hours into it since the upgrade dropped and yeah it looks incredible at 4K/60fps. Hopefully XB1-3 get the same treatment soon.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition Gets Nintendo Switch 2 Upgrade, Out Now
Small price but Pokemon S&V got the same for free. I'm glad we have it and yes £4 isn't much but still.
Re: Sonic The Hedgehog 4 Movie Has Found Its Amy Rose
@zidane4028 😂😂😂😂😂 haha
Re: Sonic The Hedgehog 4 Movie Has Found Its Amy Rose
@zidane4028 Why would a Bird voice Amy?
Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite Gen 5 Pokémon?
Scraggy for me.
Re: Sonic The Hedgehog 4 Movie Has Found Its Amy Rose
Great choice she always crushes it.
Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite Gen 4 Pokémon?
Lucario. One of my favourite PM ever and is also the star of one of my favourite PM films.
Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite Gen 3 Pokémon?
Gardevoir by far. Always a mainstay on my teams.
Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite Gen 2 Pokémon?
Lugia though Scizor is a close 2nd. Loved Lugia ever since the 2000 movie and its always been my favourite Legendary.
Re: Poll: What's Your Favourite Gen 1 Pokémon?
Will always be Charizard.
