The recasting controversy may be a distracting dealbreaker
Not really. Only within reactionary forums this was talked. This is a totally nonissue, to be honest, otherwise, let us factor everything, not what is conveniently easier to bash...
one app, called Nintendo App, with NSO features would be ideal.
Perhaps Nintendo Music as a stand alone would make sense. But Today, Store and NSO should all be one.
The Switch 2 version will of course support crossplay with all other platforms, and it will also have a mouse mode, touch screen support for menus, advanced vibrations as well as gyroscope aiming for the best possible immersion.
I only play AC on handheld and I’m not picky about resolution
That is the good thing. The 3.0 update bumped the resolution on Switch 2 to 1080, so the game is optimized and faster on Switch 2 without the need to buy the upgrade.
I am still playing New Horizons. My 3rd most played game (behind Splatoon 3 and Splatoon 2).
And I will not buy the upgrade. Even for those who like to play online a lot, imagine hosting 12 people?!?! You will waste 40 minutes only with arrivals and departures.
@N00BiSH Yet, is Nintendo of América the one responsible to show NCL that there are other markets in América. Doug Bowser failed this, and Devon Pritchard is already failing too.
Nintendo needs to expand into South América and the arabic world. Heck, just now they are giving proper attention to the rest of Asia, still, they need a stronger presence in India and Indonesia.
If Nintendo wants to survive, they can not continue this insular. But NoA is insular itself, thinking - like many of usofans - that only exists USofA.

Re: Community: Which Switch 1 Games Benefit Most From Switch 2's New Boost Mode?
Pokémon Shield looks good now.
Re: Super Mario Bros. Wonder - Switch 2 Edition Gets A New Overview Trailer
@Sonicka Nintendo is completely clueless regarding 2D Mario, unfortunately.
Re: Pokémon FireRed And LeafGreen Are Already "Best Sellers" On The Switch eShop Charts
How dare people spend their money they way they want to enjoy some games.
Better listen to anons on internet.
Re: Nintendo Download: 12th February (North America)
Caves of Qud will be released next monday, but no signs in the eShop until now.

@Erigen
After Triangle Strategy and Various Daylife, this one almost seems like a normal name, haha.

Re: Nintendo Store App Receives A Small But Welcome Update
Still, there is too much apps.

Re: Valheim Brings A Slice Of Viking Survival To Switch 2 This Year
@kal_el_07241
Yes.
From the official site.
Re: Valheim Brings A Slice Of Viking Survival To Switch 2 This Year
I have been reading impressions about this game and only read good things (for those who like the genre).
I was interested, now I am excited!
Re: Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition Launches 24th February for Switch 2
I only now the first 2 and the Tactics one (through GoG).
This one seems so different.
Re: Valheim Brings A Slice Of Viking Survival To Switch 2 This Year
This one is very interesting. It is on my radar now.
Re: After Multiple Delays, Cult Hit 'Caves Of Qud' Is Finally Hitting Switch This Month
I hope that they launch it on the brazilian eShop.
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Direct February Partner Predictions - What Do You Want To See?
Caves of Qud released after the Direct.
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream For Switch?
Since they are not in my language, so no.
Re: Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream Moves In On Switch 1 This April
Is there localization in latin spanish, portuguese and arabic?
Re: Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream Nintendo Direct Announced For Thursday, 29th January
Nintendo surely is banalizing their Direct brand.
The "rumored" full Direct do not exist. It is just a rumor.

Re: All Nintendo Switch 1 & 2 Games With Analogue Trigger Compatibility (That Work With The GameCube NSO Controller)
The funny thing is people demanding this for racing games for being "more realistic" while using manual transmission in these same games... tsc tsc
Re: Sail Forth's Free 'Switch 2 Edition' Upgrade Is Bound To Float Your Boat
The Switch version is on sale. Too bad that they raised the price in my local eShop.
Re: "I'm Excited To Meet You" - Devon Pritchard Makes Her First Public Appearance As President Of NoA
Hi Devon.
The capital city of Brazil is Brasília, not Buenos Aires.
Also, in South América we all use the METRIC system.
And R$ 500 for a game is robbery.

Re: Nintendo Reveals First New Joy-Con 2 Colours For Switch 2
Waiting for the Splatoon 4 colours.
Re: Nintendo Is Bringing The 'My Mario' Line To The West In February
It seems that Central América and South América do not exist.
Doug Bowser was an awful COO and Devon Pritchard is following his steps.
sigh.
Re: Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles Has Surpassed One Million Sales Worldwide
Good.
As the producer said, now it is time to do something with Final Fantasy Tactics Advance and A2. Both better games than this one.
Re: Censored Dispatch Artwork Spotted On Nintendo's Digital Storefront
@Oldstalk
You cared enough to click in the article and leave a comment (and I doubt that you read the article).
Re: Censored Dispatch Artwork Spotted On Nintendo's Digital Storefront
Thanks, Devon Pritchard. Someone needs to think on them kids.
Meanwhile, most Nintendo games still do not have portuguese localization.
Re: Cronos: The New Dawn Is Getting An Easy Difficulty Setting In Early 2026
Why?
Image & Form ruined Steamworld Heist (3DS), with that patch to to dumb down the difficult of the whole game.
Re: Reminder: It's Time To Rate Your Switch 1 & 2 Games Of The Year
Splatoon 3 is my game of the year since its launch.
Before that was Splatoon 2.
Splatoon means life.
Re: More Switch Games Have Received Compatibility Updates For Switch 2
@Suketoudara
Damn. This one do not run on Switch 2? This (and Rogue) are on my wishlist. ;_;
Re: Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster Has Sold Over 6 Million Copies
Final Fantasy peaked in 6. That is just facts.
Re: Factorio - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition Announced, Free Upgrade For Existing Owners

Nintendo increased the game prices in my country in 20% this year.
Re: No Gravity Games Is Giving Away 10 Free Switch Games This Month (North America)
@Jeff2sayshi
Of course there is a downside. Only if you do not value your time.
My limited time is valuable. I am not going to waste it on bad games.
Re: Cowabunga! TMNT Roguelike 'Splintered Fate' Is Heading To Switch 2 Next Week
Roguelite.
If a game is not turn based, it is already not a roguelike.
Re: Feature: "It's A Bit Of A Joke At This Point" - Skyrim Dev On Returning For A Switch 2 Re-Release
People says that the Anniversary Edition is inferior than the standard version.
I bought the standard version last week. Too bad that it seems we have no upgrade for this version. Also, where is the portuguese language pack?
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Metroid Prime 4: Beyond?
This is not a Metroid game, it is just an average 1st adventure game.
I think that this game will kill the chances of a new Metroid Prime.
Re: Award-Winning Slice-Of-Life Soccer Game 'Despelote' Comes To Switch This Week
*Football, please.
Re: Talking Point: Six Months Since Launch, How Would You Rate Switch 2?
The battery sucks.
Some games are awful in undocked.
There are few Nintendo exclusive games.
So-so. It seems that Furukawa is aiming for a soft reboot in 2027.
It was the first time that I bought a console day 1, but I should have waited.
Mario Kart World is not a fun game, unfortunately.
Re: 'The Duskbloods' Could Be FromSoftware's Most Ambitious Game Yet, According To Leak
@AussieMcBucket Lost Kingdoms II, yes.
Re: 'The Duskbloods' Could Be FromSoftware's Most Ambitious Game Yet, According To Leak
Bring back Lost Kingdoms, the best From Software game.
Re: Nintendo Has Scheduled Maintenance For 3DS Later Today
Finally, they will give us the street pass puzzle pieces that are missing!
Re: "Consumers Generally Do Not Care" About AI In Games, Says Former Square Enix Exec
The problem with the loud minority is that they think that AI is only chatbots and generative images.
The same way we all see people talking about engines when they do not know what a middleware is or can do.
Re: Best Zelda Games Of All Time
@Yoshi3 We have so many examples of games that are more "beloved" than played...
Re: Corpse Party Tetralogy Pack Switch Western Release Cancelled
@Vyacheslav333 GoG is better than Steam because you really OWN your games.
I can buy a game on GoG, put a installer in a usb stick and then install the game in my internetless laptop.
Steam is just a glorified rent store.
Re: Corpse Party Tetralogy Pack Switch Western Release Cancelled
Thanks Doug Bowser. Thanks Devon Pritchard.
You are saving all our children!!!!!1111111
We want price increases again, please, give us more of that instead!!!!!111111
Re: Best Zelda Games Of All Time
I know that these all are subjective and such, but to put Majora's Mask in any Top 10 is a signal that the person did not play all the Zelda games.
Re: Site News: Nintendo Life Turns 20 Today!
I remember that I was looking for reviews of WiiWare games and came here and soon it became part of Nintendo Life that we all love.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (18th October)
Playing Legends Z-A, the lesser pokémon game of pokémon games.
Enjoying, but this is not pokémon.
