@The-Chosen-one The games will come, and there's many examples of them already doing so. There's still millions of active Switches out there too, so it would behoove publishers to keep up the support for awhile.
@Ratmasterd21 I never once thought that, and those are two high-end performance controllers, whereas this is the standard Pro 2 pad. One standard P2 🎮 for that sweet headphone jack and I'm good.
@LightSpirit Muskrat Social needs to disappear. Bluesky is also the only one I use, and that is borderline tolerable, as its not connected with chump regime billionaires, unlike how all the main ones are. Terrifying how much and how quickly things have degraded. 😞
No. Sick of the BOTW setting/aesthetic. Calamity was okay but not as good as the original Hyrule warriors. Zelda needs a new, fresh direction, especially after the mess that was TOTK. 😔
It just occurred to me, perhaps Nintendo is forgoing MP2 & 3 Remastered in favour of just throwing them onto Switch Online (or at least MP2, which would also satisfy the rumoured NSO Wii Classics)? While having them in any form is still good, the notion of restricting them to mere digital rentals saddens me deeply. 😭
@nessisonett Game adaptations are nothing new. What is new is that the quality of them has finally increased substantially from where they used to be, on average.
@JohnnyMind We're obsessed because it's a legitimate problem. I'm not buying any non-indie 3rd party S2 games that aren't actually fully physical, especially at today's prices.
@HammerGalladeBro Yeah, MP4 for me as well, and I also grabbed a hard copy of the FF Tactics remaster cause tactical/strat RPGs from that era (like when Fire Emblem was still appealing) are usually really fun, plus its getting a free Switch 2 patch. I'm passing on Mario gallaxy for now too. Will consider Yooka later also.
@Isenlia This is very misleading and factually wrong. There are many games on PS5/XSX that contain the entire game on 💿. Yes it copies to the console, but the 💿 actually contains the game. "https://www.doesitplay.org/" breaks this down very nicely.
@Bass_X0 Seriously. The original VB was almost $200 USD in 1995. So many people truly don't appreciate the value of money and underestimate just how costly this stuff is to make. And that's not even touching on the current global political situation...
@7h0r This is nonsense. It's been 30 years and Nintendo is finally giving some attention to their unique failure, and via a method that is uniquely Nintendo. It's impressive this method will even work, and I appreciate the ingenuity. I have positive memories of playing Wario Land VB in shopping malls in 1995, and I'd love another chance to revisit that.
@sixrings I guess it depends what system one is playing on? S1 players won't get 4K, yet S2 players can, so I guess that's what "up to 4K" is referring to? 🤔
@Zeebor15 Thank you, and Good on Atari for at least doing some publishing of their own still. Like, Yars Rising was a normal release and I got that right away. I have NOT played Atari today, but I should correct that error. 😂
@Zeebor15 Oh that's great news then! Thank you for clarifying that for us all. 🙂LRGs website has it as a numbered release, which usually means it's exclusive. But as we sometimes see, some "exclusives" end up going regular retail ages later.
@Lord People will continue putting themselves into massive amounts of debt cause most people will justify anything for special occasions like the holiday season. S2 should easily hit 15M by March 31st 2026. All it needs is to average 1.1M for the next 8 months, and holidays always spike sales.
Everyone, don't expect much from EA on Switch 2. Activision will finally bring COD back, it'll do fairly well, and make EA/BF even less relevant to Nintendo players in the process. EA even makes Ubisoft look good... Now that's saying something. 😧
@N00BiSH The continued, incestuous relationship with LRG is really hurting the appeal of Wayforward for me on a personal level. Shantae as a series is still really good, and I really want to get Advance (albeit on a modern platform like Switch and NOT via LRG directly), but ugh, it pains me greatly. LRG is such a terrible company.
@rvcolem1 Well, to each their own. I'm not going to pretend to be self-righteous and claim to never leave comments on stuff I don't like, cause I certainly do sometimes, though I do try to stop myself. 😅
@Fiergala Toronto never had any really iconic skyscrapers, save maybe First Canadian Place? But it's hardly a household name. Mostly just generic looking office towers. That's no secret. We do however have a ton of very famous other landmarks that aren't skyscrapers, like High Park, Casa Loma, The Distillery District, The Roundhouse, The UofT campus, The Brickworks, Ontario Place, the old TSX building, to name some. What we need is a skyscraper that looks like a raccoon, then we'll get noticed. 😆 (we already have a library that looks like a turkey 😉)
Edit: There is that stupid One Bloor Tower being built. It's a BILLION dollars in debt already and way behind schedule. While it'll likely be iconic, the very project is a complete and total ridiculous farce. 🤦♂️
@Grim Thankfully this is NOT a numbered release, it's a distro title, so what that should mean is that this game is probably going to be available at other retailers as we get closer to release. Hopefully. One less game held hostage by the terrible LRG is always welcomed. 🙏🥹
@Fiergala Lifelong Toronto resident. "Blandy internationalist?" 🤔 Toronto has one of the most unique skylines in the world. It's instantly recognizable, what with the iconic CN Tower and the Skydome right beside it. I'm not deeply in love with toronto, I'm just stating the obvious. It's like New York's skyline or Tokyo's.
@rvcolem1 @Norsaken Complaining here about a franchise you dislike is beyond strange. SP is awesome. Don't like, don't watch/play. Knives is 17 and also isn't a minor. Age of consent in Canada is 16. Americans always view everything in a bubble.
