I too would love to see what Nintendo could do with the Ratchet & Clank formula using Mario and his gun to fire all types of ammo at enemies in a lovely open world.
@Moistnado I've already bought, along with MKW and Donkey Kong Bananza but I'm still waiting for that killer app just have to hope that Nintendo gets their skates on and launches some more must have first party games.
What we really need to see is some of Nintendo's own games using the tech, can you imagine what a new Zelda or 3d Mario would be like with it Mmmm, yummy.
I agree with what many others here have said, that it's totally game dependent, but do think that having to safely navigate your way from one area to another is a huge part of the fun for me in games and having no consequence to taking any fall damage would vastly negate my enjoyment of the experience, can you imagine botw or totk with no fall damage, it would completely destroy the adventure.
Metroid Prime Remastered (again!) & Luigi's Mansion 3 as I never really got very far with that one also trying to play Doom Eternal but keep getting absolutely hammered by the game difficulty (got to face it I just ain't any good at first person shooters anymore) been watching my sister play Horizon - Forbidden West CE on my rig as she's much better at the bosses than me.
Yeah I know, been trying to get my hands on a 1TB version for some time now with no luck.
They're selling out faster than the pre-orders for the machine itself!
Makes me wonder how soon after the Switch 2 launch will we see any pirated hardware/emulators, it's bound to happen and there's probably people already hammering away at the logistics.
@Elitepatriot
I too would probably play on PC (although my RTX 4070 SUPER is getting on a bit now)
It would be nice to have a Switch 2 version though even if was only to see how the the console copes with the game, still would be nice making your way through the Cyrodiil landscapes on the handheld though.
Doubt it, at least not anytime soon, the developers would need some time to get their heads around what the Switch 2 was really capable of, it would be nice though maybe we'd even see the game running some DLSS tech.
There seems to be much interest in the one feature I'm not bothered about.. the mouse mode, after trying with Metroid Prime 4 Beyond I can't see myself messing with it that much.
@ElkinFencer10 Me too, can't see the mouse control as little more than a novelty, have to wait and see how well it works but for now it's a controller all the way.
Probably going to stay with the controller when playing on TV, besides having to unhinge my case from the Joycons every time I wanted to play in mouse mode would soon become a real pain in the **** better to just stick with what you're used to.
Same as everyone else here, MKW and Donkey Kong Bananza seeing as there's no new Super Mario or Zelda anywhere in sight, might stretch to Metroid Prime 4 Beyond as well if it turns out to be as good as everyone is saying.
Well I do feel a bit stupid now, I've gone ahead and bought a boxed copy of MKW (simply cause I hate digital copies) and I feel even more stupid now I now how much they'll be putting into all it's online gameplay as I'm a single player only man. and although I had reservations over the game price, I couldn't resist the new Nintendo console thing.
@LastFootnote Well I've pre-ordered it, found one a little bit cheaper than all the main shops are offering it at. I too am hoping that it's not considered a budget title and we have plenty of gameplay here, now it looks like they've set the pricing precedent at £80 for all it's premium first party content.
As far as Switch 2 goes I have bought one along with a physical copy of MKW it's console price is reasonable it's games prices not so, don't know how many first party titles I'll be buying (not really interested in all the third party stuff apart from the exclusives) if Nintendo is not careful here it could find it is pricing itself out of the market after all the launch hype for Switch 2 has died down and I'm not just talking about all the Nintendo junkies out there who would buy anything at any price with that red logo on the box, more your casual user like me that simply can't/wont be buying one until the game prices reduce, as for his speech it was pure nonsense talking of the original Switch support... yeah, yeah, yeah.
Game cartridges all the way for me, this isn't good for those not wanting their empty cartridge in the console or tied to the eShop the ability for Nintendo to simply remove or block the game is also there. Guess we're just gonna have to bite the bullet and shell out the extra cash for physical game media.

Now you're talking (not thoroughly sold on the art style, but the mechanics look fantastic) c'mon Nintendo get a move on.

Re: Round Up: The First Impressions Of Donkey Kong Bananza Are In
@Dazman I would absolutely love an open world 3d Mario but as well as a new Zelda think we'll be waiting years until we see one.
