Whatever. Better for me. I ended buying dozens of games I've never even started for switch 1 because I wanted a "big collection of physical games". Now that a lot of these are fake physical games for switch 2 I'm just not buying them and playing what I actually get. Their loss, not mine I'm saving money in the end
Differences are many for switch 1 and switch 2 editions. Since I only buy physical games and the switch 1 is clearly a downgrade I might skip this. Or pirate it on switch 1 since it's absurd square enix refuses a full physical release for switch 2. Their choice in the end.
Game key card with performance issues. Well, that settles it for me.
It's a shame we are hearing "performance issues" all over again. I expect more from the switch 2, and if can't deliver I'll only buy some nintendo games there and do the rest of my gaming elsewhere (tho I really hate my ps5 with 5 exclusive games)
The direct was awesome. I've forgotten how much I love Sakurai's style to show stuff. As for the game, not sure if it is for me and don't know if I'll be buying it.
Can't wait for Sakurai to start working in a Smash game!
When they are up they become as******. When they are down they look for partnerships with gamers. How I wish they fell off again to the wiiu era so they could be humbled again.
@UltimateOtaku91 gosh, I can't imagine selling my games after completing them 🥲 I love my collection. Then again when I die I'm not taking it with me but it's nice in the meantime.
I was excited for several of these, some of which I already have for my PS5. I was thinking on double dipping until the game key cards started to appear online. Now I'd rather pirate them whenever switch 2 is safe to hack. I'll buy physical or not buy at all. Their choice.
When your only talent its making (really good) games of a fat plumber jumping, collecting coins and flattening enemies with the power of his own weight, well, sure, i understand where he is coming from.
Compare what he does to REAL artists who realle make their games ART and he is nothing there. Gosh, he hated story in his games and on his characters. Compare his writing with the artist who wrote Super Paper Mario. Of course he would not see games as art, he has no talent to be an artist.
Dang, it's a good thing he really doesn't makes anymore. He was great tl have during the rebirth of videogames in the 80s and 90s, but his views are too dated now.
It has happened to me once, while playing Cyberpunk. I hated when it happened. Rumble didnt get back on for the next few minutes. Switch 2 is becoming a box full of terrible surprises
I will definitely WON'T get it unless the game is fully in the card. Already have the 3DS version, and once you know the twist the story there is no point in playing it again. Their loss.
Honestly I would have preferred a t*rd over what we got. They should make a presentation only for Nintendo related announcements and another one for other kind of products.
Also, ZA looks very underwhelming. They are not even trying to hide the stutter in the graphics and animations (normally I don't care for this in other developers games, but for Pokemon, after so many technical dissapointments, they get another treatment from me). Oh well, At least I was not expecting anything from them this time.
Maybe the extra space will be for game manuals??? Otherwise, the card is too small (going by the size of the slot in the presentation video) for such a big box
Not all of us have a heavy presence online, so for them the reveal was probably exciting.
Personally, well, I pretty much knew everything from the leaks already, but felt good to have it officially revealed at last. So, for me, yeah, the leaks kinda hurt the reveal a little.
Average for me. I'm not chronically online or anything but leaks were many and they were also spot on, so no surprises here. Some might say it's not Nintendo's fault that we found out by leaks, but it somewhat is their fault by stretching this reveal for so long.
Still, the system is what I expected because of the leaks, so I'll assume the spec leaks are also accurate. We have a powerful nintendo machine coming and that's awesome. Can't wait for the FFVII remake trilogy reveal for the console ❤️
Hope he losses everything. I can't stand pirates, be it sellers or users. They all deserve time in prison. Btw, I'm only refering to people that pirate currently supported hardware. It's fine to pirate consoles that are not supported by a company anymore.
I have a RP3+ and it's great. Want to see what this one offers. Might be a must buy for me (of course I only emulate games that are not available on modern consoles FOR SALE, even digital, and no, subscription services like nintendo online or ps+ do not count, though I pay for those).
@Ryu_Niiyama the opposite for me. Nintendo needs to double down in the timeline connections. So glad they are doing it despite miyamoto and aonuma's best efforts in destroying it. Some of us require more than gameplay to enjoy a game. Personally I've been there since the beginning and I'm getting tired of the "tale of 3 souls retold" with no direction whatsoever.
I rarely abandon a game I buy. If I buy it I will finish it eventually.
Not this game. Played for 20 hours, really tried to like it, but it just didn't happen. The script and characters are all over the place, gameplay is very repetitive and the customization options for characters is very limited, and the performance in switch is really really bad. I shelved it.
Already voted but I wanna comment as well: the moment I don't have a choice to buy physical I'm pirating everything. No company will ever see money from me ever again.

Re: Pokémon Pokopia Is Seemingly Nintendo's First Game-Key Card Release
Glad to see the disdain towards game key cards. Absolutely not acceptable for Nintendo first party and second party games

Re: Nintendo Asks Wii U Owners To Refrain From Using "Unauthorised" Online Services
@dr-ghost this comment really got to me. It's unfair how nintendo treated us, WiiU buyers.
Sony did the same thing with the vita and I hate their guts. Why does nintendo always get a pass?

So Square and Enix were correct then by not releasing great RPGs over there in the 90's xD
Re: English Box Art For Famicom Detective Club Remakes Spotted In Official Nintendo Graphic
Hopefully. The reason why I haven't bought these games is because they are digital only. I don't care for first party releases that do this.
And EMIO, while it has a physical version, I don't wanna buy it until I play the first ones. So ball is pretty much on Nintendo's court at this point

Re: Talking Point: Just How Damaging Is This Big Pokémon Leak?

@Arkay nah, he is calling you guys sexually narrow minded xD don't misinterpret his words. You are on the wrong. Minorities are not to blame here.
However, I believe Type A and Type B is misleading and confusing. I don't understand who pressured then to do it
