The price on that all in one carry case was already super expensive, Nintendo is probably making a huge profit on that. Yes, the US tariffs are probably adding some effect, but we are expecting peak Nintendo pride.
@Toastmaster it’s true, but Nintendo isn’t as rich as Microsoft…and a lot of these Nintendo games are a year or more old, so it makes sense… would have liked to see Mario party jamboree as a free upgrade since it’s newer, but I’m OK with all the other ones
@Shade_Koopa with the capability of the steamdeck and Ally X - it would stand to reason the system does 720 or maybe 1080 in handheld mode and when docked can pump out 2k or 4k. If the system cost $500 - it should be able to do that. If it’s another $300-400 machine - I doubt it would.
A Switch 2 that's fully backward compatible with the switch would be amazing. Maybe it puts out 4k/30 on TVs, I'd be ecstatic about that, realistically, I don't expect it (that way I'm not disappointed) and I'd still be happy with a 1440p output or something. I just want more graphical power and it would be nice if they upscaled older games like the XBone to XSX did.
Sitting at 100 shrines, all the sages, 45 seed trees, master sword, full stamina and one full row of hearts. Haven’t finished the main story but I think I’m close. Still have SO much to explore and do!
I think durability should be increased by a notable chunk and it would be cool to combine broken weapon parts for repairs/crafting. I don't care if repairs/crafting isn't in the game, but I would be annoyed if your weapon breaks in 2-3 fights.
Lets hope the blacksmiths of Hyrule have learned a thing or two about durability
Wait wait wait...are these numbers totally accurate?? I’m shocked if the Xbox series consoles have sold a total of 41k when they’re still selling out just like PS5s.
So they call money “pounds” and weight “stone” What are rocks called over there, “cash”? Cultural differences are funny!
I imagine a sentence going like this: “some Stoney bloke hit me with a bag a cash while I was chewing some chips and biscuits and made off with me pounds!”

Re: PSA: Trading Is Finally Live In Pokémon TCG Pocket, But It's A Real Headache

Re: Retro Staff Credits Removed From Donkey Kong Country Returns HD, Forever Entertainment Confirmed As Devs
They couldn’t even say retro studios. Shame on them. Just for that, I’m going to buy it used.
Re: Pokémon TCG Pocket: Tier List & Best Decks
Here's the thing, a Blastoise EX deck doesn't even need a misty to consistently beat a mewtwo deck.
Re: Talking Point: Would $499 Be Too Much For 'Switch 2'?

Re: Talking Point: Would $499 Be Too Much For 'Switch 2'?
If it’s a hybrid console again (which it should be) and it can get close to 4k30 - I’m all in. I just want a more powerful switch!
Re: The Legendary 'Rogue' Is Now On Switch, But Players Have Noticed A Severe Bug
So this is where Roguelike came from! Now I know
Re: Talking Point: Could Nintendo Go Another Year Without A Switch Successor?

What about that cape that goes with the champions leathers?
Re: Reminder: Catch All The Pokémon Games On 3DS & Wii U Before The eShop Closure
Every time I try to connect to the E shop, I get error code 005–4240.
I tried to do a system update and that didn’t work either. My internet is working fine and when I do a connection test, it works fine.
Anyone else having an issue?
Re: Bowser Defends $70 Zelda Pricing, Nintendo Still "Very Bullish" About Switch

Re: Japanese Charts: Nintendo Switch And Pokémon Continue To Dominate The Top Spot
How does one buy a New 2DS XL? Or maybe I should say, are they tracking used sale numbers?
Re: You Can Get Your 'Year In Review' Nintendo Switch Stats Now For 2022

Re: Video: You Can Improve Pokémon Scarlet And Violet's Performance Yourself

Has anyone done a digital vs game card comparison?
Re: The Switch Has Now Sold Over 25 Million Units In Japan
@clianvXAi this would surprise me too...BUT The Legend of Zelda has never been as popular in Japan as it has in the west.
@gcunit
Re: Reminder: You Don't Need The Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Booster Course Pass To Play The DLC
Is this kinda like a game pass deal where if I stop paying for Switch online + Expansion I don't get access anymore?
Re: Video: This Switch OLED Teardown Shows Just How Thin The New Screen Is
Wait, I didn’t know we could send our joycons to Nintendo to get fixed. Does anyone have a link to that web page?? Thanks in advanced!
