People were hungry for a new Nintendo console, as long as they keep the software flowing like before they should be in for another smooth ride. I do see a mid gen upgrade this time around though.
Wilds is the most disappointing MH ever for me, aside from it's technical issues they just did way too many things that made the experience less MH. After completing it & doing a bunch of end game content I put it down & went back to Rise & Worlds & I have zero desire to return.
People crack me up with their comments & theories. Numbers don’t lie, whether you don’t know anyone who has one or not makes no matter, they’ve sold the systems to someone. Doesn’t have to be anyone you know to count. 🤣
@BaldB3lper78 It’s suped up tablet, it’s never gonna be able to run the newer third party games at high resolutions & frame rates, people’s expectations are way too high, this is what $500 gets you for a handheld.
They were never executives, the fact they used that term is SUPER misleading, can't say I'm surprised, God forbid they fact check before posting "news". Just another reason why the media in general has fallen out of favor with the public.
To pirate a dead console where the software isn't sold anymore is one thing but to pirate a still VERY active selling console is just asking for trouble.
People REALLY need to get their expectations in check here. Nintendo is & always has been about battery power on their handhelds & while this is a hybrid they pretty much kept the same agenda on Switch. Tech demos rarely show what actual games will look like come launch day, console launches have proven that time after time, after time so not sure why people always seem to forget that.
I can't help but LMAO at all these expectations people had from watching Youtuber's clickbait "Leak" or "Prediction" videos. People put waaaaaay too much expectations into these things.
Yeah this review is pretty awful. Just played & beat the GameCube version last year & it still holds up incredibly well. 30 fps aside, I would still rank it as just as good as alot of the stuff that still hits the market today.
I skipped the NSO expansion pack & bought the DLC for $24.99. Yes I could have just upgraded my current plan but I want to own the DLC without being reliant on Nintendo’s online.
@Specter_of-the_OLED The game is nothing like Octopath Traveler other than it has characters who’s story intertwine. Each scenario has a different combat system & some of the plot lines feature very little combat at all & focus more on exploration & story.
Can we just stop talking about the name, it’s been discussed ad nauseum . It’s not unique or clever, just get on with it already because wits not going to change.

@purple_shyguy Contra code works perfectly, it’s a locked 60 now!
Re: Feature: 11 Games With 'Secret' Performance Bumps You Should Revisit On Switch 2
@davowayman Yes, it’s a flawless 1080p 60 docked now, huge improvement over SW1’s frame rate!
Re: Feature: 11 Games With 'Secret' Performance Bumps You Should Revisit On Switch 2
The physical version of Bloodstained still runs very poorly on SW2, not sure if that makes a difference but it’s still terrible.
