A little confusing the switch 2 update is 1.0.20 not 1.1.10. Otherwise seems much crisper and running better. Water reflections in handheld. Just found a Bo in a chest. Really enjoying this game.
@Misima trump won the popular vote by a wide margin. You are putting that label on over half the voting age people in America. That’s a pretty bold statement
@CaptainQuo I will reply once more and then let it go. I appreciate you being nice and open to talk.
A journalist should report facts and data.
The comments section is for thoughts and opinions.
It shouldn’t be the other way around. As I read thru this comments section there are many people’s opinions who I don’t agree with. But that’s totally ok. It’s their right to say it. I think some of them are dead wrong. But it’s ok because it’s their opinion and their right to speak it.
I hope you’re right about the UK. I would rather be wrong about such a thing. I hope you have a good rest of your day.
@CaptainQuo all you have to do is a quick google search to see the UK is in the middle of a free speech crisis. And again that has nothing to do with our discussion. It doesn’t matter if I’m wrong or right. It’s a comments section. It does matter if the news media is wrong or right though.
@CaptainQuo yes because I’m not a journalist. And that’s what the comments section is for. Speaking your thoughts and opinions. But that’s not what journalism should be
Glad I’m not the only one noticing the lock down on political article comments sections.
Of course this is a UK based website where freedom of speech no longer exists for the most part anyways so maybe it’s par for the course.
Anyway I’ve really appreciated this website over the years. I almost left it recently but it’s one of the few spots where you can get good Nintendo news. I especially appreciate the game update info.
So maybe approach politics without bias. Instead of “the orange haired maniac is gonna increase tariffs again” you can just you know, report the facts. “Nintendo will only get a short reprieve from tariffs.” And let the people decide their own opinions. Just my two cents.
Be cool if there was some info on where these can be played now. Like NSO or castlevania collection etc. otherwise great list. This was much of my childhood ❤️
Can’t wait to play RE9 although I bought the bundle and haven’t played 7 or 8 so it will be a while before get to 9. Here’s hoping we get ports of 2-4 remakes too!
@dskatter a quick google search brings up BOTW/TOTK, the Witcher 3, mortal combat 11 and 1, Lego Star Wars, pokemon arceus as well as violet/scarlet, monster hunter rise and on and on. But whatever man
@dskatter well I may be out of the loop but it seems much more noticeable than the switch 1. To me anyways. Skyrim 60FPS mode is blurry in handheld and sharp and crisp in docked mode. AC Shadows has major graphics differences between docked and handheld. If IRC many switch 1 games performed WORSE docked. I could be wrong though.
Well I already pre-ordered fallout 4 and the resident evil 3 pack. Why not throw a Pokémon game in there as well! Turning into an expensive week! But definitely an exciting one for gaming.
Sooooo basically now you can see the game in 30FPS or you can have blurry visuals at 60FPS. Good job Bethesda! I put it back in quality mode because the visuals are terrible at 60FPS
I only bought it because I got it for $40. Played thru it once. Will more than likely never play it again. Meanwhile I’m itching for another run of Dread and Prime remastered.
I managed to pick up the game for $40 because of GameStop. With all the bad press around the game I wouldn’t have paid $70 for it. Upon playing it I found it to be…good! Not great. But good. And it’s the first game I sat down to 100% in a while because it felt manageable. 16 hours 100%. So to me it I’m learning more and more to ignore the online ranting. I’d say the 78 on metacritic is a good score. And it’s not a bad thing. Is the game genre changing? No. Was it good. Yeah. Was it worth $70. That’s a deeper topic.
Best Buy, Amazon, target and Walmart all had the Mario kart bundle for $450 for a while there so…yeah there was a console discount during the holidays….guess they missed that?
If I didn’t already have the physical I would’ve jumped on it. Still there’s some amazing games for cheap right now. Gonna pick up Kingdom Come for $5 and maybe a few others
Just picked up 4 switch 2 games and 1 switch 1 game in GameStop’s latest sale. All 4 switch 2 games are key card games. I also picked up a 512GB Microsd express card which made a massive difference. I think the issue going forward is going to be more of making the memory less expensive more so than the key cards. And I fully agree. Every other platform requires games be downloaded. I also find it funny how people are freaking out about game size. This game is 100GB on steam. It’s just the way of the world at this point.
Pretty terrible the input lag and watching as textures pop in. But the game is pretty in general and whatever it was free. I went in to just play test it and ended up playing for several hours lol
Personally been enjoying all these surprise free switch 2 upgrades. Now all I need is to pick up fallout 4 early next year. And fingers crossed for Witcher 3 upgrade and RDR2.
Pokémon Z-A switch 2 edition is playable on both consoles. Glad to see they did the same here. It will be interesting to pop into my switch lite and check the difference.
Again for me I’ll most likely be keeping to switch 2 exclusives and getting 3rd party games on my ROG ALLY X.
The switch tax in full effect. Got wild hearts on steam for $7 ($50 switch 2) Cyberpunk complete for $24 ($70). Final fantasy remake intergrade for $24 ($40). I understand not everyone has that ability so this is cool but not for me.

Re: Little Nightmares II Is Getting An 'Enhanced Edition' On Switch 2
I’d drop $5 for an upgrade. Otherwise it’s a game I played once and will likely never touch again.

Re: Fans Are Asking Nintendo To Refund Xenoblade Chronicles X's Switch 2 Upgrade
This is starting to become an interesting trend with the switch 2. Lots of games performing better in docked mode than handheld…

Leaf green. Close as I can get to bringing back the original pokemon blue nostalgia. Can’t believe I was 14…

Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Direct February Partner Predictions - What Do You Want To See?
Red Dead Redemption 2. Some Sony games would be cool. Lots of slightly older ports I wouldn’t mind seeing. And a release date for Fallout 4.

For those complaining about file size. It is 90-95GB PS5 and steam. Rebirth is around 150GB. So might as well get used to it.

Re: Mini Review: Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition - Now A Legit Contender For Mario's Karting Crown
Regardless of how good the game is it sold 1 million copies its first month. Across multiple consoles.
Mario kart world sold over 5 million copies its first month. On 1 console.
I don’t see how this game will ever be competition for Mario kart

Re: Video: Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade Official Side-By-Side Comparison (Switch 2, Xbox, PS5, PC)
@Discostew yes but they will go on sale less often on the eshop and never as low as you can get them on PC
Re: Video: Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade Official Side-By-Side Comparison (Switch 2, Xbox, PS5, PC)
Again for me I’ll most likely be keeping to switch 2 exclusives and getting 3rd party games on my ROG ALLY X.
The switch tax in full effect. Got wild hearts on steam for $7 ($50 switch 2) Cyberpunk complete for $24 ($70). Final fantasy remake intergrade for $24 ($40). I understand not everyone has that ability so this is cool but not for me.
