I am currently playing Raidou Remastered and will hopefully complete it before the 12th when Borderlands 4 comes out. Next up is the Trails remake, which I have been looking forward to for a long time.
This is honestly horrible. There is no way to know the previous history of used games, and part of the benefit of buying physical is so you can resell it. This just leaves a bad taste in my mouth, and makes me think about returning my switch 2 and just not dealing with Nintendo.
Honestly, I was a little tempted by the switch 2, yet decided to pass on it. My Switch is my least used console, and I much prefer playing on my Rog Ally X. Between switch games hardly ever going on sale, and the huge backlog on PC, switch, Xbox, and gamepass, I already feel pressure about buying anything new. I just quit my game rental service because it wasn’t worth it when for the same price I could buy 4-5 deeply discounted titles, or one thing I really wanted. Add in emulation of retro games and there is just less reason to bother with the new switch.
I pre-ordered star ocean divine force and am waiting for that. In case you don’t know, the publisher is not doing well financially and they are in a square Enix final fantasy situation, where this is their last game unless it does well enough to save the company. I bought it because I love the star ocean games.

Re: Nintendo Switch 2 Priced At $449.99 For The Base Console
Given that this is a secondary console that I would primarily play for exclusives, I’m going to sit this one out for now given that price.

I have been on a hiatus from games for a while. Just got xenoblade 2, and am starting that up.
