Star Wars Outlaws looks quite impressive as well. I've been playing Street Fighter 6 on Switch 2 and that is also a very good port.

@Sylamp They can just make the Switch 2 upgrade pack be 5€ and that's it. Should work with physical games as well.

@DwaynesGames Link's Awakening (2019) is amazing and worth every penny. I have zero regrets getting that and neither should anyone else.

@dew12333 They patch it because they can, a luxury that wasn't possible a few generations ago. The thing is, even those retro games that we all know and love had plenty of glitches and all kinds of little oversights. Speedrunners have discovered a ton of them even on the most stable games out there.

I do want to play Super Mario Galaxy 2 as I have never played it.

Gotta say, open world is the one thing that I don't want to see in a Metroid game. Kind of worried to be honest, but I'll still be playing this.

If you could play the games on TV, then sure, count me in! But apparently you need to get that accessory to play...

I personally found it quite funny, as it was so unexpected. I didn't die, but came very close. Anyway, it's possible to dash to safety even after sitting down, but you have to be fast. The bench sign is also unique so there kind of is a way to tell that it's a trap.

Nope. Difficult for sure, but fair.

Value is a very subjective thing. If a game is something special, I'm fine paying 20€ for a game that only lasts 5 hours or less. Developers should set a price point that they themselves would find fair for what they're offering.

It does look promising, but the character movement looks super jerky in the trailer. Game feel is super important in any game, especially difficult games, so I'm kind of worried about it.

Huh, that's actually far better looking than I expected.

But Forsaken is in the Mature app unlike the other games, so this doesn't even make any sense.

I think we should expect to see RE2 & RE3 Remakes on Switch 2, but Requiem? Hard to imagine it working well.

The whole clown meme was super lame and annoying. Let people be excited.

I hope they'll add 3DS games to the NSO some day. Yes, there would be challenges (like the touch screen controls when docked etc), but there are so many amazing games stuck on 3DS.

@LeChuck All of the DLC for Hollow Knight was free, and I doubt they would do anything different with Silksong.

@DangerZone $20 USD doesn't equal 20€ either, but here we are.

Seems like a great deal, can't wait to play it!

A huge missed opportunity to not release a Switch 2 demo at the same time. The Switch 1 version is kind of ugly and doesn't run well even on Switch 2. Sure, you can't expect too much from Switch 1, but Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is so, so, so much better looking than this. Gameplay seems fine, though. Nothing groundbreaking, but a decent arcade racer.

@Rebusmind I think people should voice their opinion that they want 60fps games, so that maybe some developers will hear that and make it happen. That said, FF VII remake is a 30fps game on PS4 (and a beautiful game too), so I'd never expect it to run 60fps on Switch 2 unless they remade the whole game with major sacrifices to the visuals.

@BaldB3lper78 This upgrade has actual new content, though. Ideally, the resolution/framerate improvements should be free and the new content paid (if necessary), but this upgrade pack seems pretty good overall.

Always wanted to play Grow Home and Grow Up, hopefully they'll be released on Switch 2 at some point.

@HaNks How exactly do you know that? Sega did receive dev kits to make Yakuza 0, Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S and Sonic × Shadow Generations. The fact that they decided to prioritize those three releases over Sonic Racing is on Sega first and foremost.

If a game can't reach 60fps, then locking it to 30fps is a good call. They did the right thing. That said, I do wish they would add a 40fps mode if possible.

I seriously doubt that they would delay a game by over two months because another game in a completely different genre is releasing. More likely that they just needed more time to finish the game but don't want to admit it for some reason.

Edit: Now, it's true that October is very packed with games, but late September would've been completely fine.

@Grandiajet What Zelda game?

@DTFaux To be fair, Yooka-Laylee is a 30€/$30 game, often on sale for a lot less (currently on sale for 6€ on Steam for example), so having to pay $50 for a physical version of this doesn't exactly seem like a great deal. Sure, the game is remastered, but I'm not sure if it's changed enough to be worth it.

@Paulo Elden Ring runs quite badly on all platforms, so I wouldn't lose hope yet. Besides, developers haven't necessarily had that much time with the development kits either.

@johnedwin FF7 and Elden Ring were 30fps on PS4, so yeah, obviously Switch 2 will run them 30fps as well. Especially since we're talking about a two month old console, so developers haven't had time to learn all the tricks for optimization yet.

@gojiguy Well, yeah, these things are always 100% subjective. In my opinion leverless is the best way to play (fighting games and 2D games), but some people may disagree. Anyway, I've seen a lot of people who are super vocal about arcade sticks, so it's not like only those people who are using leverless controllers like to make their opinion heard.

Leverless controllers are great for 2D platformers and other 2D games as well. I've pretty much abandoned traditional controllers when playing 2D games, as the D-pad doesn't offer the precision and speed offered by separate direction buttons. It takes some time getting used to, but feels great when it clicks.

@Bydlak You need to update the firmware for it to work on Switch 2.

Roadwarden is a pretty good game, but other than that, not many interesting titles. As usual, for every decent game, there's 10 asset flips, AI storybooks or games that aren't even games (there have been some random drone video compilations recently).

@EriXz The original was dirt cheap, as it was only 15€ for such a massive and polished game. I will feel guilty if I don't get to pay at least 20€ for Silksong.

That is one tall D-pad.

@Friendly Don't be silly. People will still keep talking about it at every show, hoping for DLC or something. 😉

@Friendly I've played a ton of indies and agree that there are a lot of amazing games. But that doesn't change the fact that Hollow Knight is one of my favourite games ever. I'd suggest you just let people be excited about a game.

@AndreyBoarao What? The art style is amazing. Gameplay looks pretty good too. The only potential pitfall is Bubsy himself with the voice acting/humour that is traditional for the series.

It looks amazing. Never played the original, but will definitely be getting this.

That looks shockingly similar to Xbox pad.

It's a pretty fun game, so I'll check it out if they offer an upgrade path.

I find it bizarre how the credit for so many games are going to the publisher first and foremost (they're the ones who are mentioned in the title). Why isn't the developer, Furcula, mentioned in the title? I notice the same phenomenon often with games published by Devolver Digital as well.

Inspired by cartoons, not Cuphead. Cartoons from different time period as well, judging by the grayscale look.

I gotta say, I'm kind of glad this never happened since otherwise Penny's Big Breakaway may not have been a thing at all.

@Vyacheslav333 They released Emio not that long ago, so it's not like they haven't done that recently. And of course they've published plenty of mature third party games like Bayonetta 3 as well. Even the less succesful Wii U got some, like Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water.

Nah, I'm not interested, even with the reasonable price.

@Xansies Yeah, playing Mario Kart looks fine, but the ghosting is quite obvious in 2D games. Mina the Hollower, while smooth in 120fps mode, doesn't look as good as it should because of that. The improved motion clarity is one of the main reasons I enjoy 120fps games a lot.

But, again, it really does look great on a decent TV. And the game itself seems awesome in general.

@Vyacheslav333 It makes a lot of sense since the backgrounds are scrolling smoothly when moving. You won't see a difference in character animations etc, but the higher framerate really makes those backgrounds sharper in motion (except on Switch 2's own screen).

The difference is barely noticeable when playing in handheld mode, but quite obvious on my TV. The motion clarity is much improved.
