Gamechat is amazing.

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.

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…

Crazy split! The original western design is just too iconic. This was my game as a kid

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.

Haven’t checked below zero but the original plays and looks phenomenal!

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

Silly. I would love to experience Wario again even without 3D. Oh well 🤷‍♂️😆

Uhhh…pika pika?

Umm…the electric mouse?

Pikachu…uh…it’s…it’s still Pikachu

Pikachu will always be #1 for me

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.

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.

So it’s not going to obliterate Mario kart world?!!!!

I certainly hope so. MP2 is the game I want most on the service. Followed by twilight princess

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.

Definitely picking this up tomorrow.

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.

We have one GameStop left. And one overpriced mom and pop….I really like my GameStop and shop there a lot. Hope they stay afloat

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

This certainly means the Switch 2 port of Fallout 4 should run perfectly! 🤣

Game looks awful but seems to play better on switch 2

Love game chat. My long distance girlfriend and I will use it to hang out instead of a phone call some nights.

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.

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

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.

Nice! Only problem is I own this trilogy like 3 times over on PC lol. Maybe I’ll buy at a deep discount.

I’m confused. The last Xenoblade X update was 1.0.2 in April. What is this new update they are talking about?

@Discostew yes but they will go on sale less often on the eshop and never as low as you can get them on 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.

Most fun I’ve had playing a Pokemon game in a while. Guess it will depend on your tastes but so far I think it’s great.

See here’s the thing…I have no interest in Sonic racing games. But my kids and I play Mario kart world every week…

Until they have haptic and NFC I just don’t see the point

I have no desire to play this. I doubt if I will pick it up even on sale. But my kids and I still play Mario kart world on a weekly basis. It’s good to have competition so keep trying sega but yeah no thanks.

Yes I too fell victim to the last judge explosion. My thought was “well played team cherry, well played”.

Honestly with 2 portable gaming consoles, a switch 2 and a ROG ally X, I’m really starting to prefer digital in general. My switch 2 case only carries 9 cards. So I’m constantly having to decide which games I want to take with me. The rest of my physical games sit on my desk at home. Those games would more likely get played if they were digitally on my system.

Even with the sound on I noticed the haptic rain drops. Such a cool feature. Such an amazing game.

@DennyCrane I appreciate it lol!

But at that moment I knew he was done. I defeated him for good after a few more tries 😊

Having just beat the last judge last night I feel your pain. I fought him for 3 nights straight after work lol. And then I finally did beat him…and he killed me with his death explosion…and somewhere in the wind I could hear the game developers laughing…

This game has had me nervous since the first teaser trailer. We will see…

Cool now if they could fix the down slash attack not working randomly that would be great! Or maybe I just suck lol

@BrokenCiv yeah I sold all mine except a select few I really like for this very reason

So for me personally I understand physical media for preservation is critical. Also having an electronic back up is critical.

But honestly the older I get the more I like digital. I have had more than one occasion where I’ve been on a trip and really wanted to play a certain game but crap I forgot to pack it.

I have a ROG ALLY X and have 2.5TB of games on it. (Which by the way no one in the steam deck crowd is complaining about the lack of physical media). I have a 256GB express card in my switch 2. And honestly. I’m getting tired of taking games in and out. Being able to just click on a game and play it is super convenient. I will likely never buy key cards and just purchase a digital copy instead.

Some day I will look back and be glad I have a decent sized library of physical switch/2 games but right now I’m happy to have a digital library. I will still get 1st party Nintendo games physical but other than that I’m ok with digital.

I get that digital can be taken away and that should change but otherwise I’m happy with my set up.

Learning you could string beads to not lose them changed my mind about this game. Ok I can keep from losing everything lol
