Re: Talking Point: Would You Buy A Digital-Only 'Switch 2'?

Absolutely. I'm all in on digital. I've even been selling a bunch of my physical games to get digital versions instead. I'm honestly just not that worried about all that "doomsday" stuff. Seems like something that won't be a problem for a LONG time, and even then, only if my console breaks AND I still care about playing the games at that point.

Digital is more convenient, takes up less physical space, and is just a click away (until it isn't, of course). I like those benefits.

Re: Review: Everybody 1-2-Switch! - Family-Friendly Fun That Lacks Longevity

I'm sure the game is fun enough. Like the last one, though, I feel like the biggest problem is there are way better multiplayer/party games on the system. I actually played a lot of 1-2-Switch until Mario Kart, Splatoon, etc. came out. It was silly fun, and I loved that even non-gamers could get in on it.

Anyway, I'll pass for now. Maybe I'll buy it if I have the right people coming over some night, but eh. We'd probably just play Jackbox.

Re: Feature: Our Predictions For The June 2023 Nintendo Direct

I mean, I don't expect anything TOO crazy, but I definitely expect some decent stuff. I see no reason why they would have released Advance Wars and the XC3 DLC right before Zelda if they didn't have much for the second half of the year.

I think a new 2D Mario is just about a sure thing. Really surprising to me that they didn't announce one right around the launch of the movie. Other than that, who knows. It'd be nice to see Metroid Prime 4 and a new F-Zero, but that may be asking a lot.

Re: Talking Point: From The Sublime To The Ridiculous - Is Anybody Excited For Everybody 1-2-Switch!?

First one was fun enough. Biggest issues were a) the price and b) better multiplayer games came out not long after it was released. In a total vacuum, it's pretty fun-especially since it's good for people who typically wouldn't play video games too.

I'm intrigued by the smart device thing, too. Are they trying to go more Jackbox style?

I don't know. I could see picking it up if reviews are decent. Probably not, though.

Re: LEGO 2K Drive's Physical Switch Release Is Just A Download Code

I’m certainly not trying to say it’s a GOOD thing when releases like this come out, but I’ll admit that if I were interested in the game I’d buy this instead of going to the eShop. Might as well get a free backup case that I could use for something else. Some of mine are kinda dinged up.

Re: Feature: What's The Best Way To Play Super Mario Bros. In 2023?

Switch Online. I know there are purists out there, but personally, I will always take the version with save states and other conveniences over original hardware. Plus, I mean, my Switch is always hooked up (unlike my NES Classic and Wii U), the portability, and the wireless NES controllers, and yeah-that’s the best way.

I do really like the Game & Watch, but I can’t choose a version that doesn’t connect to a TV. I’m more of a console gamer.

Makes sense to me. Three Houses is my favorite game on Switch and I'm skipping this one. I'm sure it's a good game, especially for longtime fans, but seems like they cut down on most of what I (along with many others) liked about Three Houses. Maybe I'll pick it up some day, but no rush.
