@Kilamanjaro I want all the too, and actually, after playing city trial, I want smash run brought back. I would play battle royal smash bros.

Im convinced w
Sakurai is either making a new smash or a expansion pack style switch 2 update for smash bros ultimate. They needed to bribe him to get him to do it one more time so they let him make air riders.

that killed it for me then and there. Even though I would have gotten it digital, I have done a great job of voting with my wallet this gen. All my switch 2 games have been true physical so far, I cannot and will not support this

@darkswabber its so funny the article starts with that little nah it isn't X and Y but for real, it was X and Y that was the beginning of the end. Mediocre games

is this something that runs very well on the switch/switch 2 or should i play it on pc if i can sort of thing

I hope for it so bad, this netflix of games approach is dissapointing. needing to connect to the net here and there to refresh licensing essentially just means there is a tether on my portable console, which has always been a letdown. Please let me buy these and have them on my account, nso's setup is garbage

Is there a difference in the script or anything? I got foreign physical copies of those myself

@GrailUK it totally is, we can no longer have carts that allow us to have games when servers for a console are done with. It's a huge deal in gaming longevity, and further removes ownership of a game from you, the consumer. Im surprised people dont get that. This is just me shouting into the void but id love if nintendo life would also have an info column for game key or real cart. Id love it in big bold letters on articles, it saves me time on deciding if its even a game ill consider

@Cipher36 I got dk, cyberpunk and rune factory for switch 2 physical games. I guess these are the outliers, I was very excited to have cyberpunk on a cart. Hell I already beat it on pc before buying it on the switch2. It funnt cause I played it on pc with a controller but im using mouse controls on switch 2. I hope they release more real physical games or this is unironically gonna turn into a buyers remorse situation for me, and i dont want that. I was excited

Damn, I waa excited for this one but hadn't checked. Another game i skip on switch 2 due to game key cards. I knew they were gonna be a thing but I actually got my switch 2 to collect physical games and this isn't it, so I just keep getting the games on pc instead. Hell even a limited run in proper carts. For that reason alone it seems like my switch 2 is just collecting dust

@Rosona
It's more like this version is the streaming service version and the psp one is the blu ray with all thr extra features

The digital lifespan is the servers lifespan. If nintendo keeps going backwards compatible then sure, but I doubt they will.

@SalvorHardin I wouldn't hold my breath on the random fighter, cart games, japanese exclusive battlw network 1 remake with starforce. They released the main games, thats all we should hope for, maybe if this was like that old gamecube collection, but I have zero expectations for any of that

only collection left is legends, i hope this has the kaizou cards and the other japanese exclusive content elements, just like they did for the battle network collection. If this does well maybe we can get a new battle network/starforce game

It's god-like not gold-like

New robopon plz lol

Easy dodge with a game key card. Vote with your wallet, people buy physical games to have physical games, not a download code on a mandatory paperweight. If people keep rejecting the game key cards maybe something will actually happen, the cyberpunk sales were a good sign. Though to have full impact people also need to buy physical games. Need to create a full story, cause without people buying ohysical and just rejecting key cards it could be viewed that people don't want physical, even if it isn't true. They need physical games to sell as well

Wow so many games announced today that I won't buy at all on principle. Game key cards= no purchase at all, not even digital

I hope fans continue to let game keys to flounder but purchase full content cartridges. It needs to be both or else companies will be like "noble one buys physical" but people do buy physical, it just needs to be actual physical games

@dskatter damn key cards, when a game drops on key card i just dont get it. Hell if a game comes out physical i still might get it digital, but the key cards I cant abide. Still i got 3 switch 2 physical games, hoping to add to that collection

Never played this series but it always looked good, so my questions are, is it good and does it have multuplayer? I know its like an rpg soccer game, or I guess on this site "football" but does it feature multiplayer, is it the pokemon of sports games?

@Medic_alert weird. Im sure you are testing it live (ish) and we are talking live so I'm gonna assume you are being honest, but that also means im getting conflicting reports online. I wonder if the other people just didn't understand what was meant by analog triggers and havent actually played it on the gamecube. I really hope they make it in line with proper gamecube controls. It would elevate it to being one of my favorite games on the switch series of consoles. Appreciate the response

@Medic_alert before or after this update?

@Lizuka good news for you, it already works properly with the gamecube controller

I buy nintendo games physical. Those carts aren't physical games. I won't be buying them. I'll even say I do buy games digital at times but if a game comes on one of those key cars carts, it really is enough for me to not buy the game at all

@AllBLK yeah i must say, that if this is one of the flagship games to show off nintendos next gen device, it should have higher standards. I'm already invested into the ecosystem so I will be playing it but that doesnt excite me. Still, havent had my 3d dk fix since 64.

Still a nintendo fan, I got my switch 2 and controllers but they are the disney and apple of the gaming space, both for the good and the bad

I have my switch 2 where my switch 1 was and it has worse connectivity than the switch .

I dunno, I've always felt sonic team has been a bit bad as developers, he may be right purely because they will probably good it. If there are two devs I don't really have any faith in it's sonic team and game freaks team that works on pokemon. They are the kings of "good enough? ship it" which to me always gave me the vibe of more of a leadership issue in those teams more than anything

Are these and the other non paid switch 2 game updates just a patch or do you have to download them from the store?

I got, for physical games, despite already owning cyberpunk, cyberpunk, and rune factory. Because those are complete games on carts. I hope that they learn that people don't want the code carts, they wants carts with games on them

If only I had known this was news worthy I would have reported it. I got mine ages back, so this when screwing around with it before the switch 2 even came out, and returned it. Then I bought a tomtoc one

I feel their painz i had a freak accident in a similar vein happen to my pokemon in the old pokemon transfer app, the one on 3ds, can't remember it's name atm. Almost made me quit the franchise

@Jumwa that's an interesting question, i appreciate that sort of thinking. I mean you would have to measure some stuff, I ain't doing it, but that's something that will be figured out by some R&D engineers. A good point. I think it should be fine, shouldn't be a big enough field to effect the sticks but that's purely a mildly educated guess.

Now i see why nintendo went after palworld, because they have design elements pokemon wanted to use

Yeah I'm not surprised by this. I'd honestly be surprised if palworld actually gets sued. It's heavily inspired but nothing looks like it's using pokemon assets.

I'm excited for translations to be handled by AI tbh, anything beyond that I'm a bit more skeptical but I do understand how ai can be used to speed up programming without AI writing any code, so it's not all doom and gloom

My only concern, and correct me if I'm wrong, is I dont see battle network legacy collection on the list. The other collections are.

I feel that the game awards have been toeing a line back and forth, in a lot of ways they totally have improved over the years, but this was a step back with good intentions. They tried to fix one problem, and made a whole other. Than of course we have all the ad space, which to be fair, we do like those reveals. However, when little rants about announcements can be 5 minutes, or Kojima can go on stage and do his annual sniffing his own farts bit, it does minimize the core of the event: the awards. They especially need more time for GOTY. Give "lesser" awards a 2-3 minute speech slot, give the got 4-6 and include extra time for translation if needed.

@LadyCharlie I agree, I was going to say, people must have forgot what indie means. It's a shortened form of independent. If Disney made a film super cheap with no name actors and such, it still wouldn't be an independent film. How odd people forget what words mean. Or at least the writers and Geoff. The poll on here at least seems to show the readers still know.

@Dr_Lugae except it still isn't a piracy tool, it's an emulation tool. The piracy would have happened with or without the tool. The emulation step is actually after the piracy if someone were to partake in such things. Don't be too reductionist.

Emulation is legal, piracy is not. This isn't a piracy tool, if they had the funds they could fight this legally, but it simply isn't feasible, this is corporate bullying, which is a common misuse of legal systems

I have moved on to pc for my multiplats, but if you can only really play it on the switch, persona 3 and 4 are great. My favorite of the series is 3 personally. It handles its themes well. Persona has been a good series for a long time, I am happy that more can access it.
P.S. Persona 1 and 2 are much more hardcore rpgs, no social sim systems. But if you like dungeon crawling rpgs, they are good, but 2 has issues with way to frequent random battles.

This has been an absolute roller coaster. It's terrible to say this but I love it for the drama. I'm very confused about what is going on as well. Can't wait for the next update on this lmao

i guess im a minority here, but english voices are usually bad. the only exception being the novelty of british voices in xenoblade

I think switching to free to play would be a death knell at this point, it would burn those that bought in and very few would jump on. I think this game will only have a competitive scene of the very dedicated but is otherwise dead

@KAI_MIDORIKAWA
It is still zones you choose between, large open zones, but not one total world

People were saying back during mighty no 9 Keiji Inafune was a con man. I kick started Mno9, for 3ds. I still didn't believe him to be a straight up conman. This news though, I now know he has always been a conman.

They really screwed up with this one. Shame, I wanted it but this season pass stuff and the surrounding components in a full price game. Unfortunate...

@Oppyz666 it's tekken style
