@Slowdive I would say they are comparable enough, but hey, definitions are all over the place nowadays. I perfer Game Card over Cartridge, which fits what it is, much better.
@Rambler My definition of cartridge is ROM only with additional h/w expansions (as with your link) while Switch game cards use flash rom technology similar to SD cards.
Was anyone there when this happened? Does anyone have a full picture of what actually happened. Of course not, just from articles online from eye witnesses and police statements. Hope NL doesn't become Kotaku with click bait articles.
First Ace Attorney game I've finished and enjoyed the story, setting, characters and music. Also learnt something about Window Tax, which explains why I see buildings where the window has been replaced by bricks. Learnt some history
@RupeeClock I'm only joking with you. I thought the emoji gave that away. Oh, and I would still get a 1TB license one if available - but hey, got to make the offical license thing worth something (but even I have a limit if the price gets too crazy - I'm not rich like Will Smith).
I'm not sold on it and I don't think it will do good long run. What you get for the price is great but the biggest disappointment is the screen. Battery life from YouTube reviews shows you're gonna need a battery pack if you're using this remotely alot.
I couldn't believe the games were 720p and some games offered performance/quality modes. The PCs those games are running from should be able to run all those games max settings at 1080p 60fps, no problem at all - otherwise what is the point of paying for cloud gaming.
ubitus is cheaping out in some important areas. As DF said, nvidia geforce now would be a better cloud experience.
I'm not a fan of NFTs but my God! People love to moan about something they are not forced to buy. If people want to invest in NFTs to maybe make money, let them. No one is forcing you to buy them.

Re: The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles Has Sold Over 500,000 Copies Worldwide
@UltimateOtaku91 I wish they had voice for all the text scenes as the voice acting (English dub) is great for the cut scenes where they have this.

Re: Review: Mario Golf - Strait-Laced Fun On The Fairway
I agreed with Gavin - I've been put off Nintendo's later Sports games due to them adding "extra features". I want it to closer resemble the sport.

@RupeeClock The Offical Nintendo license makes it better especially with Nintendo related pictures printed on them.
Re: Deals: Amazon's MicroSD Card Sale Is The Perfect Opportunity To Get More Storage For Your Switch (US)
I would get a 1TB Scandisk Nintendo License one if they were available, but probably better it's not, for the wallet, that is.

Re: Digital Foundry Gives Its Assessment Of Cloud Gaming On Switch

@NoTinderLife I meant microLED. Then they can call it the Pro version and charge an arm and leg for it.
