@HammerGalladeBro Probably branding, unlike Smash, this series has been inconsistent with the names. Sonic Racing is nice and simple, the goal even has a Mario Kart-style font now.
Coming to NS2 but not switch? Ok.. dev will miss a 150M install base for a game that could run on Switch and would automatically run on NS2 anyway, just saying.
@SplatRay001 I played Rise/Sunbreak alone. There are companions in Sunbreak (AI-controlled hunters) that you can bring along in your quests, the best MH game to play offline I'd say.
Underrated game, one of the few games I keep coming back to on my WiiU, easy to pick-up and play. If I were Platinum, I'd proudly show Star Fox Zero on the site.
Am I the only one who's not sold on the idea of 24 players? 12 players is already chaotic enough, I'd rather have more control over my car, better physics and less reliance on item management.
@Aneira And this is exactly why I don't see the point in carrying over your entire library. Why don't just play Switch games on good ol' Switch and new games on NS2. Sure you can play some games on the NS2 if there are performance advantages, but an entire library?
Just went back to play the Wii version, what a great game and it still holds up! Ignore negative reviews and get whatever version you prefer, but don't skip this game.
Releasing Eternal as a digital download only-game was a crime, a game of such caliber. Fortunately we got a physical version thanks to LRG. I really hope Dark Ages comes to NS2.
I love it and can't get enough of everyone's new designs. Donkey Kong in particular can benefit a lot from his new look if he's about to re-emerge as a Nintendo mascot.
@Hero-of-WiiU If you like Tropical Freeze and haven't played this one yet I'd recommend it. The port itself might not be the best version but it stands on its own two feet and is an enjoyable experience.
The graphical downgrades turned me off, you can see Gamexplains videos to find out all the shortcuts they took. The Wii original is still the way to experience this gem.
I blame Nintendo for dragging the reveal and taking so damn long, it never happened before with any other Nintendo console what a pity. I'm only excited to see the games now.
Nintendo should secure a future for Bayonetta by acquiring Platinum Games, after three Nintendo exclusive entries and a good partnership history with them, why not.

Re: Nintendo Is Discontinuing Gold Points, One Of The Switch's Best Incentives
I forgot they existed lol I don't use the eShop.
Re: Sorry Okamiden Fans, It Sounds Like The Okami Sequel Will Basically Ignore The DS Follow-Up
Okamiden is great, nothing will change that.
Re: Split Fiction Dev Knows "A Lot" About Switch 2, But Can't Say Anything Yet
How come they know a lot but Capcom knows nothing when asked about MH Wilds coming to NS2 lol
Re: Random: Takaya Imamura Wants To See Star Fox: Assault On Switch 2

Re: Nope, Monster Hunter Wilds Producer Still Won't Spill The Beans On A Switch 2 Port
@Slobbert I agree with you, not only does Rise has better mobility but each map is an open world area where you can explore without restrictions.
Re: Save On Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, Mega Man With Capcom's eShop Sale (US)
@SplatRay001 I played Rise/Sunbreak alone. There are companions in Sunbreak (AI-controlled hunters) that you can bring along in your quests, the best MH game to play offline I'd say.
Re: Talking Point: Which 'Tales' Game Will Come To Switch Next?
I hope they are working on the Next Tales of and not just remakes.
Re: Nintendo President Reiterates Switch Online Will "Continue To Be Available" For Switch 2
How I wish I could vote No, but they keep us paying for online play.
Re: Opinion: Miiverse Was Fine, But Does Anybody Really Want It Back In 2025?
Miiverse hands down the best social media ever.
Re: Random: Hideki Kamiya Would Rather You Not Play Okami On The Wii
Still can't believe a WiiU version never happened, the Gamepad is a perfect fit. The sequel would be sick on NS2 with mouse controls though.
Re: Sumo Group Confirms "Impact" On Workforce As It Pivots To Develop Exclusively For Partners
I hope they are working on Sonic Racing CrossWorlds.
Re: Random: Shuhei Yoshida Reminisces About Playing Sony's First 'SNES PlayStation' Game

Re: PlatinumGames Wipes Several Games From Its Website's Portfolio
Underrated game, one of the few games I keep coming back to on my WiiU, easy to pick-up and play. If I were Platinum, I'd proudly show Star Fox Zero on the site.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition Has Been Rated For Switch
I was expecting an AO (Adults Only) rating for an uncensored release.
Re: Talking Point: What Do We Actually Want From 'Mario Kart 9'?
Am I the only one who's not sold on the idea of 24 players? 12 players is already chaotic enough, I'd rather have more control over my car, better physics and less reliance on item management.
Re: Random: Xbox Gets Its Own Shameful 'Mario Strikers' Knock-Off
Ah yes Mariostro, Mario and Astro Bot's half-brother, his soccer skills are unrivaled.
Re: Poll: So, Were You Accepted For The Nintendo Switch 2 Hands-On Event?
We have to wait until March for the results here in Japan.

I got this game at launch for Switch and I can say it's an incredible port, playing it everyday.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (25th January)
Guilty Gear Strive just released on Switch, so I'll be playing that.
Re: Lexar Is Apparently Releasing A Switch 2 'microSD Express' Card
@Aneira And this is exactly why I don't see the point in carrying over your entire library. Why don't just play Switch games on good ol' Switch and new games on NS2. Sure you can play some games on the NS2 if there are performance advantages, but an entire library?
Re: Xbox Is "Really Looking Forward" To Supporting Switch 2
DOOM The Dark Ages on NS2 with Joy-con mouse support would be insane.
Re: Nintendo's Switch 2 Announcement Reportedly Impacted Steam Deck Sales
Poor little Steam Deck.

Ninja Gaiden 3 Razor's Edge was a WiiU launch title, I'd love to see 4 on NS2.

Re: Atelier Yumia Dives Into Motorbike Riding And Base Building In New Trailer
This needs a NS2 version badly, performance is not looking great on Switch.
Re: Sega Launches Its Own Free Account Service With Unique Member Rewards
Just more corporate bs
Re: Oops, The Next DOOM Game's Release Date Appears To Have Been Leaked
Releasing Eternal as a digital download only-game was a crime, a game of such caliber. Fortunately we got a physical version thanks to LRG. I really hope Dark Ages comes to NS2.
Re: Zelda Fan Film Kicks Off Fundraising Campaign With First Live-Action Trailer
Do they really think they can monetize on a Nintendo IP without permission? They are literally asking to be sued and I don't defend them at all.
Re: Nintendo: Switch 2's Backwards Compatibility Feature Is The "Best Direction" For Consumers
While Sony and Microsoft are trying to get rid of physical media, Nintendo fully embracing physical carts is what made me the happiest.
Re: Poll: What Do You Think Of Donkey Kong's Redesign In Mario Kart 9?
I love it and can't get enough of everyone's new designs. Donkey Kong in particular can benefit a lot from his new look if he's about to re-emerge as a Nintendo mascot.
Re: Random: Switch 2 Leakers Called Out By Industry Veteran Hideki Kamiya
Just Kamiya being Kamiya, an assurance that Okami sequel is in good hands people!
Re: New Mario Kart 9 Teased For Switch 2
Makes me appreciate the WiiU even more, that first Mario Kart 8 trailer was an unforgettable experience. I'm excited for this game nonetheless!
Re: Video: Digital Foundry's Technical Analysis Of Donkey Kong Country Returns HD
@Hero-of-WiiU If you like Tropical Freeze and haven't played this one yet I'd recommend it. The port itself might not be the best version but it stands on its own two feet and is an enjoyable experience.
Re: Nintendo Asks Wii U Owners To Refrain From Using "Unauthorised" Online Services
lol suddenly they "care" about us Wii U users, shut up Nintendo.
Re: Rusty Rabbit, From The Creator Of Psycho-Pass, Is The Most Bonkers Metroidvania Ever
This looks like something straight out of Psycho Pass episode 4.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Donkey Kong Country Returns HD
The graphical downgrades turned me off, you can see Gamexplains videos to find out all the shortcuts they took. The Wii original is still the way to experience this gem.
Re: 8 Years Ago Today, We First Got Our Hands On Nintendo Switch
I was pretty disappointed by Switch specs tbh, I was expecting a huge leap from WiiU. Looks like it'll finally happen with the successor.
Re: Rumour: Switch Virtual Console Was Apparently Nintendo's "Original Plan"
They should allow both, keep the service while offering the chance to buy them individually for preservation and offline play.
Re: Feature: 8 Games That Defined The Switch Generation
@ManaOwls The Thousand year door is a GameCube era-defining game just like Metroid Prime.
Re: Feature: 8 Games That Defined The Switch Generation
I never played Hollow Knight or Hades, are those really on Switch?
Re: Rumour: Insider Claims That Halo: Master Chief Collection Will Come To 'Switch 2'
There may not be many Xbox fans among Switch players but let's agree we would all love to see Halo on a Nintendo platform.
Re: Genki Claims The 'Switch 2' Joy-Con Can Be Removed By 'Brute Force'
I'll wait for the Switch 2 Lite for my handheld fix anyway, the original will be eternally docked.
Re: Physical Game Sales Took A Nosedive In The UK Last Year
I have a strict policy of no physical no buy.
Re: 'Switch 2' Ergonomic Grip Case Surfaces On Amazon

Team Sonic Racing and Echoes of Wisdom.
Re: Several PlatinumGames Veterans Have Seemingly Left The Studio
