@TimelessJubilee I do sometimes, he just keeps yapping when I work or play games. He's based but logical and has fair points very often. Sometimes he's too much but overall from time to time I do like it. This game is much, much worse than him. Pop culture in a game like this is just insanity, I would never touch it. I would probably never touch Asmon as well but that's another story.
Finished Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition during this weekend... holy ***** what a good game that was! I would love to see the other ones from the reboot. That was an amazing surprise to see it on Switch 1. Absolutely number 1 from this list.
Here we go, especially with Switch 2 and the internal storage. Man, microSD Express cards won't get cheaper that fast. They will milk you at the beginning as hard as they can. Just like it was with MMC, SD and microSD cards in the past. Give it a couple of years and microSD Express cards will be at some reasonable price.
I have 2TB microSD cards in all of my devices (including Switch 1), I'm not deleting and downloading all the stuff over and over again. I want everything on devices, sometimes I just don't have access to fast and unlimited internet. Given the nature of the devices being portable, this is how it should be. You should have access to your content all the time, without internet. Download once and forget about it. Also, as a bonus, you're not wearing out the storage.
The thing with the AI and prices... just another reason to hate it.
@Samalik I understand now. The problem in your previous comment was about the sentence, how you wrote it. It just doesn't make sense.
About the game, it is censored. It's terrible what they're doing especially to a game rated for mature audience. Putting that aside, game is great. Don't let yourself get robbed out of a good experience because of some censored costume (extra one) and a 3 second scene. It's hilarious what they did actually, no comments. They also censored Onimusha: Warlords if you choose English:
@Smithicus I read it three times... at least my brain started working properly at 4am.
About the demo. It was released because game doesn't sell well. What did you expect tho? Stupid, hilarious censorship, denuvo on PC. Capcom forgot that this is a niche title for fans, game that is over two decades old. They want to get new players into it, well... this is not the way obviously. I still think that we'll get Onimusha 3, because it would be stupid not do so after remastering two previous ones. Even if they didn't sell well, but I doubt that we'll get Dawn of Dreams. Onimusha 3 for sure won't be released before the new entry in the series hits the shelves. It should've tho, if Capcom could think at least once about what they're doing, how they're hurting not only their sales but also fans of the series with their stupid decisions. They will get new players, but with Onimusha: Way of the Sword. This company just doesn't get things right sometimes.
Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned. I paid for the digital Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition... couldn't wait for the physical. I'l buy it anyway when it'll come out.
After overclocking my Switch, I'm getting 60FPS at 720p. Perfect! So yes, Tomb Raider for the whole weekend, finally after all those years.
@Rainbowjames There are no mentions about the EU/UK versions. I'm 99% sure that it will be the exact same situation as with Resident Evil bundles on Switch 1, so only US/JP physical releases.
@Vyacheslav333 GOG is very good, but they're also selling games that straight up don't work, like Timeshift for example. Even tho they know about (it was reported many times to them), they're still selling it.
@NintendoWife No, no, not entitled. It's just necessary, otherwise you would watch a blurry mess (720p>1080p) in most of the cases. Better framerate of course whenever possible, all the other things are a very welcome add-on. Everyone should do it this way, it's such a good practice. Especially when your game and port is so good. This is how you take care of your customers properly and encourage future ones.
Well, but yes in the other case it's better to pay than not to get an upgrade at all, but that's a bad practice and people will remember it.
@Max_the_German DLSS, HDR and mouse function, utilize all the new features to support the new hardware. It takes a bit of development but think about it. They released full game on cart for Switch 1 which I praise. There's no need now for releasing even a GKC with the free upgrade that S1 version got. Switch 2 owners complaining about GKC will just grab S1 physical and get a free upgrade, I'm not even mentioning digital sales. Game is great, port is great, full physical already released and now the free upgrade. It's a complete win for everyone. This is just them being smart and they will get new sales from that. They even started printing physical copies on their own, smart move again.
@NintendoWife ^ They will get their money back from this upgrade, even more. They're smart about it. I wish that everyone would be, as this is a much better business practice and everyone just benefits from this, no one loses here. I can see only benefits for everyone.
@NintendoWife No, they should be absolutely free, this will give them more sales from Switch 2 users in the future. There should be no payment required for a game to be able to utilize new, better hardware the way it's supposed to. If they'd incorporate some new DLC alongside the update exclusively for Switch 2, then I can understand the additional cost. Otherwise just no.
@burndive Well yes, there will be products like this. THis shouldn't have happened, but everyone's already releasing firmware upgrades. This shouldn't be a thing tho, at all. Waste of time and nerves.
Wasn't it the case with Switch 1 as well? Nintendo not using a standard protocol?
@Discostew I think that Nintendo will add support for VRR when it comes to docked mode at some point.
@MattmanForever That's exactly what I've been thinking, it's just crazy what it came to. I have enough of adrenaline every single time I'm updating BIOS in my laptops.
Whatever, if this can be fixed with a firmware upgrade then it's not a big problem. It's just wild to me that you have to update firmware in a stupid dock nowadays...
Switch's 1 port is incredible, so for Switch 2 you're just waiting for 60 fps, higher resolution and that's it. I finished it twice on my OLED, great port and game.
@shonenjump86 The game wasn’t developed by Arc, but by Yuke’s. If it had been developed by Arc, it would be 100 times better. Arc is only the publisher here.
Unfortunately, I bought the physical release. One of my worst purchases and I love beat 'em ups. This game is so, so mid that I can't believe Double Dragon Neon is actually better. 4 from me... just... pick something else. Like Skinny & Franko: Fists of Violence, now that one is so good!
@MrCarlos46 We all know that, it's just not happening. Especially looking at the game releases not slowing down for Switch 1 and all the physical ones, fully on cart.
Switch 1 sold so well that I don't see them dropping support anytime soon. Both of them will just coexist for a very, very long time. People are still buying the first one, even tho sales are dropping. I know a lot of people who actually chose OLED over Switch 2.
@NintendoSense There's no Twitch app tho anymore and I do have Twitch on it (in the background) when I work remotely. Besides, I have all my movies and music collection offline.
I wanted a physical, but I won't take 1.0 version on cart in this state. Enough is enough and I love Mortal Kombat. Enough of unfinished, untested properly and rushed releases.
No wonder. Switch became my favorite console, beating even PS Vita which I considered best handheld for a long time. I have all the games that I ever wanted to play on the go now (still waiting for Shenmue III).
On top of that my Switch OLED is modded so I have an Android installed on it, perfect for watching some movies (so much better than a phone on some trips), some apps, watching Twitch etc. Amazing little machine.

P.S. Call me an a**hole, but I really like that Switch and Nintendo consoles in general have so many exclusives.
