I’m down for improvements here for sure. I use loose joy con primarily and the rumble always seemed kinda… lacking at best. Not really in the “amount” of it, but the “quality” if that makes sense. Just felt cheap

I prefer 1 player offline experiences

Guess who is golfing all weekend?

Mods please do not touch responses here. We have a right to be angry in America. It is so depressing seeing our once great country purposely destroyed.

$450 a pope dream at this point here. I’m guessing $700 if we get at all. Country may be in a Great Depression

Way to go trump voters! This is “great”

Anerican retailers cancelling/halting pre orders

$450 probably a pipe dream

Are we great again?

I think we saw the FromSoftware exclusive because more companies are realizing that specs have just become too expensive to max out. The cost and time to develop games that max out PC/PS5 specs these days are insane. And most people can hardly tell the difference once you get past a certain point. The entire industry needs to examine how Nintendo has always dominated and been the best: by prioritizing GAMEPLAY over specs

Loading times is probably my biggest thing. Nintendo proves over and over that gameplay is so much more important than specs. But recently I’ve been disappointed with a few load times on Switch. The battle screen for Brothership most recently. If they could have reduced that by just 1 second it would have made that game feel so much more “Nintendo quality”

@Paddle1 same with my joy cons. I sit just a few feet away from console. If I recline so that my legs are kinda in between the joy con and console the connection drops out (ignores button inputs) all the time. I think it’s an issue with Bluetooth and living things. I think I read once that Bluetooth doesn’t go through water well and that’s what we are mostly made up of.

The hardware had ten years to improve. It’s really not that amazing of a jump imo

I think $80 is okay for MarioKart since the last MarioKart lasted 11 years on the top 10

Protip: buy the console early. Later when they drop the price if you already own it you will get 20 free games instead

Look what is happening today. They might have to drop the price if everyone is broke

I always found with my OG joy on that drop out and ghost button pushes were more frequent than the joystick drift

I prefer to play with loose joy con, and I am 6’2 so my hands aren’t small. I’ve always loved having my arms resting at my sides. I think it’s one of the best things about Switch.

Arms at side so my cat can sit in my lap without my hands together holding a classic style video game controller over top of him.

I’m a little worried about the joy con automatically going into mouse mode if you turn them? Hope you can turn that off

Patches and upgrades are overrated. I’ve played every major release on switch without ever connecting the console to the internet. I’ve played about every game in the Nintendo life Top 50 Switch games. Never updated or patched a single one. They all worked just fine.

Rampage vibes with the destruction aspect

I’m guessing they started making a NintendoLand/1-2 switch type game again then said screw it at sone point. But didn’t wanna just throw away the cheap mini games they created

Kinda fitting that it looks like it will release around when Prime 4 does

Switch 1 should have been The Nintendo Click

And 2 should be The Nintendo Slap

For the joy con connecting vibez

I love it!

I love that it takes like 3 seconds to turn on my Switch and pick up right where I left off. That’s all I need to do. That’s all I’ve ever done. Shoot, get rid of the Home Screen entirely for all I care!

For no additional cost we will provide you a treasure map phone app for all the little turds you couldn’t find

I don’t like choices, I like playing games without ever visiting the options screen. As the developers intended. It’s their art creation. Please don’t make me choose. If I’m playing docked which should I pick? I will probably just select the default

Also, while supplies last…. Of a download code?

Will the code be 3 digits?

I think they are banking way too much on the fact that Mario Kart 8 was such an evergreen. It won’t repeat itself imo. They would also be wise to keep supporting Switch 1 aggressively. Especially with the 2 price point. I’m a bit bearish on Nintendo after today. The next Animal Crossing will be the big make or break for Switch 2 imo. Not Mario Kart.

Oh that’s great. Stop selling what would be your biggest Christmas seller in the fall. Brilliant

Super Mario Open World. It just works so well it has to happen.

Even though I’m not big on the big worlds in 3D Mario like the red desert in Odyssey

Lost me. I still haven’t connected my switch online and I’ve had it since 2021 and played about 40 games. They all work fine. You don’t need to update your co sole. I fear that will change. Hope it’s very clear which games will use this.

Guess they are planning for MK World to last for 11 years like 8

@Axecon play as a cow and have cheeseburger items is kinda cruel

Wonder what the deluxe cheeseburger does

This song in my head

No doubt in my mind tariff crap added $50 to the price, At least

If they have made it for Switch I just don’t see any reason to release it also as a Switch 2 game. If you own a Switch 2 it will play.

Well, yeah, it is the next console in line so that’s a pretty safe prediction

We have a lot of the big games already. Pikmin 1,2. Sunshine. Prime.

Question is whether they just release the rest as NSO ports, or give certain ones the remaster/HD upgrade

C for CilkSong

C for “Connect” if it’s the dual screen gimmick?

Really like how surrealist this looks, classic Nintendo weirdness that you don’t see as much anymore. The ending with girl dreaming with a crush on but also intimidating fear of the larger, prettier girl. Nice and weird

Great! On my backlog list and I still am all physical. Have played maybe 40 Switch games now without ever connecting my console to internet lol

Physical forever!

I just don’t think it would work well with two switches. Do you put the “upper” screen on your lap and hold the lower screen switch? Even if you used your tv as the upper screen it just doesn’t work as naturally as the DS/3DS. I don’t think anything but two screens physically above and below captures the DS/3DS magic. If you recall the WiiU hardy utilized the feature after NintendoLand

Peper Mario Thousand Year Door for Switch. It’s a little bit too easy so far, and the first batch of side missions too “walk over there and talk to this character” and a few “walk WAY over there and talk to this character” - but otherwise it’s good. I actually loved Brothership but it was 20 hours too long, best turn based combat I think I’ve ever experienced for a RPG though. TYD combat not as snazzy or satisfying, but everything else seems better. I still can’t recall if I played the original TYD though. A few scenes or sections I’m like “yes I recall this” and I played lots of GameCube. But a lot I just don’t recall ever playing. I know I played Super Paper Mario because I recall the 2D/3D shift gimmick.

My backlog for Switch 1 is so extensive I just don’t really care. I also like to hold off on any new hardware due to potential physical bugs or what not. I got my Switch late, in 2021. So I’ve always played games well after release. Rarely have I felt any FOMO at all or like anything was ever “spoiled” and I read this website daily and keep up with news and blogs and streamers all things Nintendo.

So do t worry if you can’t get it day 1! Just have a Switch 1 game or two that you can fall back on if you have to wait a bit.

@LikelySatan that would be awesome if Majora’s Mask was the biggest influence, as you said “creepy and surreal.” But as you also said, no chance! Just hope they do capture at least a tiny bit of the quirkiness that appears in some form in just about every game. Don’t take itself too seriously from start to finish if you will.

Kind of cart before horse but a trilogy obviously makes sense here for so many reasons. New Zealand seems ideal setting-wise. Are there any active volcanos though? Gotta have a Death Mountain.

I was pretty shocked learning they were doing this live-action, as protective as they are of IP. But if Miyamoto is advising I’m not too worried. And nothing about the movie can change how I feel about the games past or present.

There have been so many styles and types of Zelda games that they have plenty of freedom. I think we all expect something similar in look to the LOTR movies. But I wouldn’t mind being surprised in that regard.
