@brandonbwii no, Chris Dring said something like that about 2 weeks after the Switch 2's launch with regards to third-party sales.

Indie Worlds are usually around the time of a Direct. Maybe March is the new February?

It's crazy that this review is one of the more critical ones out there so far. Since my wife actually wants it, we're both getting a copy on day one.

"Worse than our lowest estimates."

Not sold on this one, but I had a great time with the original on Xbox 360.

Obviously PS5 Pro looks better, but Switch 2 looks amazing.

I haven't played this, but that will change later next month.

I didn't miss it. The trailer and multiple social media posts yesterday confirmed it's switch 2-exclusive. NL somehow "missed" it yesterday.

Winds and Waves put it over the top, for me.

@kal_el_07241 I have a Switch 2! But a lot of people online say there isn't a reason to upgrade yet. This is just one more!

I'm officially ready. Good thing for Nintendo this is a Switch 2 only game, otherwise people wouldn't have as many reasons to upgrade to NS2.

I find current discourse on 3DS fascinating as someone who remembers the first few months of the console well and knew it would eventually have a lineup the rest of the internet appreciates. People insisted it was not (and never would become) worth buying. It felt very familiar to a certain Nintendo console on the market these days.

To paraphrase Bart Simpson, I'd be stupid NOT to buy this!

I'm happy this lives up to the series pedigree. Generally speaking, RE has great games.

@JohnnyMind I liked that part as well, I didn't even consider Zelda as an inspiration for that enemy in RER (mostly because I've never played Zelda II).

Early reporting suggests this has gone down better than Skyrim initially launched. Though that's apparently a very low bar.

I just finished watching it. RE9 sounds amazing.

GameChat is excellent and really intuitive. It's wild how much it transforms the overall gaming experience.

A game that the PS4 couldn't handle is coming to Switch 2 and gamers are really acting like this won't be at least competent? Lol

Who could've predicted this?!

Given the time of day it's playing in my region, I'll tune in.

So I'd add a point for me. I assume "ymmv" ( 😉 ) of course.

I wasn't into the early generation Pokémon games when these were new so I'm getting FireRed.

The internet acts like this only happens to Nintendo, but this is proof positive that it's common.

@anoyonmus I saw that. FO4 is 6th (down from second), which may be a decent number all told. Third-parties seem to be selling decently on the console.

They undervalue their games, then punish their staff and created a toxic work culture. Then they ask why they need to readjust. Well, not the last part but still.

A Switch 2 upgrade for Nier would be amazing.

Ah, the least surprising announcement of the 30th. Lol

People disliked this because it's "another music service," but since it comes free when you have NSO...I've been appreciating it.

They know this alone won't convince enough ppl to sub to the NSO+ expansion pass tier and TPC probably wouldn't allow it there anyway. Plus, people will pay the higher prices for these since they aren't part of a named service. Since they can't say that, this is them covering themselves.

I'd take a Switch 2 upgrade for Rise and pay about tree fiddy for it.

There will be a few people who played and loved it that years from now will insist it was amazing. It's going to be weird.

That seals it, I'm not beating the DLC for 2 or 3 or starting XC DE anytime soon. They'll probably all see upgrades at some point.

Will there be an update to the review score?

I'm comically bad at this DLC even though once I started understanding how it works, I had a lot more fun with it than I initially did.

@imgrowinglegs right, he isn't someone I'd imagine who'd promote racist or ableist ideologies.

Knowing the creator of this game makes this name seem much less problematic.

I guess add a point for anyone who didn't buy this on Switch 1. Sounds like a great time.

Super Mario RPG is better than any Paper Mario, but TTYD was fun enough I guess.

The demo was awesome, so I'm pumped for this game.

Konami's back!

@Solid_Python oh, that's awesome!

I didn't play Defiance due to not having a PS2 or Xbox so I may get that.

Ascendance looks okay, too. Hadn't read the description before watching the trailer and thought to myself "that looks kind of like Symphony of the Night," so it seems like they made what they aimed for.

I hope we get vol. 1 on Switch 2 as well, but this is great. Never beat MGS4 so I'll definitely get this compilation.

@WiltonRoots naturally. Lol

@anoyonmus little ironic that Nintendo Life is silent (😉) on games coming to Switch and/or Switch 2, but are quick to post articles like this...

Speaking of games coming to Switch 2, what about the State of Play? I'm sure something from there was announced for it or NS1...

A JRPG starring Matt Damon was the highest seller in Japan. What interesting times we live in.

@ballistic90 wow, thanks for explaining something so obvious when I never asked.

@Buizel yeah, news like this almost makes one question the veracity of such reports.

We went from "Nintendo gamers don't buy Assassin's Creed," to "Nintendo gamers love Assassin's Creed." What a stark contrast to the Wii U days...

It's all fun and games until a rathalos shows up.
