We all have to remember those are their views and opinion and what one like another will have a different take. I use CYC1 for their comparisons to show and highlight differences.

@Anti-Matter I just think Switch 2 great sales was built from brand / blind loyalty, not by common sense.
Game key card is NOT the thing to celebrate from Switch 2.
What is the point to see Switch 2 success that built from trash treatment for 3rd party games with game key card option that can be abused by greedy games companies like EA, Ubisoft, etc to cheap out?

Gotty say going console wars doesn't help your cause. Nintendo doesn't control shovel as much as Sony can't control shovelware. It just sounds like one doesn't like Switch2 success and lives in echo chamber here. GKC are here to stay just like PS5 games are Digital download but you don't use the same logic with that.

@Anti-Matter I only play 3rd party kids games on my PS5 by 99% such as Bluey, Barbie, Paw Patrol, Fantasy Life, Hello Kitty, etc.
I still got a lot of choice of kids games for PS5, I mean too many of them.

It must be sad when one only has PS5 when Switch1 and Switch2 already has the same game and same could be said in reverse. So this is a mute point already.

Only in JPN markets can they get fun stuffs....

@priced at $194.99 ack....

With DLSS and 120output why would a Studio pass this off to get into more gamers to play there games on the go. It takes programming to do so but you gain access to another market to get more exposure. This is how you grow your games.

AI been helping with game development it's just getting a bigger part of QC improve game mechanics. It can compliment not take over as requires a human being to do finish polishing and sending games out.

I liked these strategy type games not like WWW, COD or such type games but those that push how you strategy game play.

DQ has a big base...that would make it sales bigger...

@vio "@Anti-Matter I immediately dumped my Switch 1 after I got my Switch 2. The backwards compatibility is so good I felt no need to keep it."

They like clicks they don't really want Switch2. They don't like that it's doing far better then a PS4 and can match PS5 graphics levels of gameplay. And the forecast is getting fast to their 15mills and probably over holiday past 20 mils.

Another point here is the sales.
DS took it's lifespan more then 10 years to get those numbers while the Switch1 only took 7 years to do that. That's the underlying story everyone missed when just looking at the numbers.

Console Unit Sales (Millions)
DS 154.02 --- 2004>>>2016? (12 years) 154.02 million
Switch 154.01 — 2017>>>2025? (7 years) 154.01 million

Now look closer at the time frame and not just how many units. That's the real story that everyone seems to just miss without looking closer.

@Anti-Matter For me, PS5 is still my number 1 console with PS4 at number 2 and Switch at number 3.
Here's the problem with that logic. Can you take it on the road and still play without power source and monitor? No. So those talking points already fail here. Also the Switch2 is at level of PS5 but that data is already lost trying to explain that already. It sounds more and more like you want console wars and that couldn't be farther from the truth. People get scared when a Switch2 can outsell and perform at levels they can't admit it can do now after dissing Switch1 for the last 10 years of it's production. Everyone here basically knows you hate Switch2 and will never get one and no one really gives a punt here.

This is their only console it was a make or break or massive success considering the price of the new Switch2. But from the sounds of it regardless majority consider it doable consider other consoles cost far more and offered less.

If all people can complain is battery life maybe take look at other hand held consoles and ask that same question. Those numbers are not surprising considering conservative estimates they made. And with Switch1 outgoing Switch2 is taking over sales and with Holidays coming they will not be able to keep up with demands as - as they come out they are bought up.

Been way long on the back burner needs to get back to ACNH, hopefully my island not been deserted by now.

Have to pickup my preorder for the bonus....and then send the other one to my niece with the preorder bonus.

I need to finish the November 5 first....ugh....I need to grind and then go finish....this first.

all levels will be set to Lv. 50 to keep things as fair as can be.
This makes it fun and challenging....I did first time and need more powerup to get farther up the list.

That sounds good but then if you want ads free you have to pay premium to have no ads. If they stop putting ads on Switch2 version of Youtube that be a good thing to have but then again to watch Youtube requires WIFI or Hotspots from your Smartphone to work in the first place if your not at your home WIFI? On my Smartphone I use Browser that blocks ads and tablet otherwise it's horrendous how ads ruin streaming. This is why I don't use it on Switch or Switch2 console. Until the Youtube on Switch2 allows custom adblocker I doubt it's worth the effort to use it and I will not pay Premium just to have no ads.

Just like everyone said Play stupid game get Stupid

Have to load up DQIII and get that started first to get the bonus for DQI&II when loading those two game.

Because anyone can play and enjoy ZA at their leisure that's why it so sought after. It was never about graphics for ZA that a bonus it was about gameplay/enjoyment. Gotta Catch'em All.... Having a Switch2 Pokémon edition but not color scheme just put more Switch2 to those waiting.

@Wexter The franchise has never strived to be graphical marvels. It be nice to have better graphics, but people have never played Pokemon for the graphics.

This is alot for those Hatin on Pokémon already forgot. By making more noise they invite more people to buy and enjoy the game. This all works to GF bottom line it's like Book Banning the more they hatin' on books the more people buy the book. Common sense would tell them the more news you make of it the more people want it. And like i mentioned this is first and foremost it's a Kids Game what about this do they not get and will never get.

I like the explore everywhere and get battle money but I am trying to get the Froggy mega first then I go wandering around....

This comes as no Surprise for Dedicated Pokémon players. Also for those Hatin on Pokémon get a clue this is a KID Game. That should be your first hint all your Hatin has some anger management issues.

I figured this was coming sooner then later....

@topsekret Does one not read what the Devs/Pub even say now? CyP2077 is the other coin but unless Nintendo comes out with a 128 or 256gb phyiscal GameCart then that might change gaming portable landscape.

@topsekret And all the Haters do they not read why the Devs/Pub are saying what they are saying? GKC is here to stay so live with it or sell off your Nintendo console and games if that hurts you so much.

Just like other Pokémon series - I am in for the fun factor and just exploring when I can before moving on. I found Pokémon that I wouldn't find by accident that I wouldn't find notice otherwise. Also I am doing alot of saves at points that I don't know what Pokémon I might find that might run off otherwise. I am not in for Speed Runs but to enjoy.

@Nintendoh People fail to understand what business is
This is why they continue to hatin' on Switch2 and they will never understand. GKC at this point is here to stay those naysayers are just whining at this point.

Totodile and then lucky in first play I got the Pokémon that look like a bat at level 18...reloaded twice to do it with backstrike and got it. Had to delete first save data after learning the moves and doing it correctly but now it's save before catching or high value Pokémon to get it right.

@KociolekDoSyta Again, people are just hatin on Switch2 for no good reason. GKC are here to stay whether you or anyone likes it or not. And not reading the Devs response to this is listening with closed mindsets. Switch1 is going away whether one likes it or not. Games coming are and will be going Switch2 there the Real Hard Facts there and also Switch2 can play Switch1 games so all those complaining are just empty at this point.

Trying to put voice acting into the game would cost more as how many language would have to be installed on Pokémon? If they had common language others would find a complaint to make again. This is what Pokémon is known for and why make it more costly?? Enjoy the game all those extras might increase or distract from gameplay.

My Gameplay so far haven't seen game issues so far. I am of the camp to enjoy the game not nitpick here and there. If you don't like the game sell it and let others whom want to just enjoy do so.

@KociolekDoSyta Unfortunately at this point the Devs or Publisher are the KING when it comes to GKC or 64gb cart. Blaming Nintendo isn't a real solution. Be glad it's GKC and no tied to the NSO Account otherwise you couldn't move your data over.

@kmtrain83 And most human perception can't match computer benchmarks that has also been proven true that for most part human perspective can't match. Only difference is huge game map files would be noticed by dedicated users. The larger the game files is where the load time would be noticed as for others since this is only tested for AAA games that requires alot of memory that's where the lags start to show up. But most general games aren't concerned with that on small game titles.

@kmtrain83 I will also make the disclaimer that I don't personally own a Switch 2.
This is the part I find disingenuous when people makes such arguments but don't own Switch2.

@HammerKirby Here's the thing about PS once installed you need PS account to load the game so you wouldn't need the disc anymore as oppose to GKC still required the cart in the Switch2 to run. That's a offnetwork game play as PS your connect to the store which already has your account so you wouldn't need to load the disc on the same console. The GKC is your License to play the game without requiring active paid account as NSO to work but only a registered Nintendo account not a NSO - unless that has changed.

@puddinggirl AFAIK I think my EN version there is option to use JPN voice? I will have to check again to be sure.

Have to wait then do the update for Switch2.

For being able to get such production is remarkable.

@KociolekDoSyta Didn't one not read they why? I guess one just like to hatin on Switch2 for no good reason. If you don't know the reason for Switch2 coming then anything mentioned is a lost on you. All other consoles are GKC or just Digital and I don't see one harping on that?

I got the bonus for GameStop but Amazon didn't send me their preorder bonus. Will have to contact them to find what happened to it. I didn't notice any load difference with Physical Switch2 version.

Might have to pickup from PlayAsia or Bazaar option.

@JJtheTexan Oh, then gotta check on it then.,

I like to get one but cost is limiting factor and the lack your Nintendo App can't control or function it - is discouraging since both are Nintendo???

Well looks like have to get back to this backlog.

I wish this at least could go Switch cart?

Got two ZA from GameStop, One from BestBuy, One from Amazon. Will decide later what to keep....

The Pokémon Company, trainers across the globe can also get an "early-purchase bonus"
So does anyone know if this is limited to only Digital version?

I like to get Alarmo but it cost a arm/leg when games cost already.

It's good but they need to fix the graphics older version look far better in visuals graphics for the Switch version that I am playing on Switch2.
