LEGEND_MARIOID

Switch 2 + Mario Kart World + Pro controller

The varous Nintendo game upgrade packs will be all purchased straight away, most likely

Street Fight 6 Yr 1&2

Raidou

Yakuza 0

TH Pro Skater 3&4 (perhaps a little later on)

Cyberpunk 2077

DK Bananza

Later: Hogwart's Legacy when discountd

Looking forward to this. We take this for granted now, but you can also play these on the go.....

I was actually interested as to how it'd turn out. I thought it seemed a little over-ambitious for Microsoft. Giving it the big 'un

I am very much up for VF5R on Switch 2.

I need a review for this but it could well be my kinda thang actually. If it works.

Probably my favourite video game of all time. My word what a great time I had on this. My memory detail is Swiss cheese, mind you.

I think we'll b just fine either way 😅🙄

@Zach They'll do the same witn Sonic x Shadow Generations. I would have held off purchasing it on Switch 1 if I knew it was coming to Switch 2 without any upgrade package.

Raidou and Yakuza 0 are insta-purchases most likely. The extra content on Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S actually read pretty neat. Just not £35 "pretty neat"! Maybe one on a deep discount further down the line.

Monster Train 2 .Onimusha 2. Please Touch the Artwork 2. Most likely insta-downloads.

I really enjoyed the first iterations of each game!

I'll need to investigate the Mobile Suit Gundam game!

This will do nicely tbf. I'm a bit of a fan of the first iteration from back inn the day and enjoyed the Switch remake. It is pretty much what I expected. Thanks for the review

I rarely use it to be fair.

Outstanding launch window. Majority of those (14 or so?) I am super interested in.

(Defo no upgrading from my PS4 to an expensive PS5 for me for a while)

Xenoblade Chronicles X has me hooked via our lauch day, OG, Switch 1. So it's getting a good workout still.

It was on my wishlist. With this in mind I'll download the game plus update for transference to Switch 2, most likely.

Looks like my kinda thang. Good trailer tbf as makes one very interested in the game.

They're finding new ways to ruin Star Wars.

@8bitKirby I agree tbf

It's an updated optimization, not an upgrade. As expected. It was okay as a timepass Pokemon game but you'd want a lot more than that from the series!

Surely this is hand in glove for for the NS2. Would play the funk out of it. 😁

"Thanos inevitability" - game key cards and digital onlys. Hoh boy.

Yes. Looking foward to this. On my list for purchasing

Aren't these guys untrustworthy?

I don't get that argument with regard to innovation

NES-SNES

GB-GBC-GBA

They weren't that innovative.

Also PS consoles and XBOX consoles.

I/we still love most of these

It's rising costs relative to our cost of living. Even in entertainment / gaming.

STILL, I'll probably have much fewer day 1 purchases than the previous gen and wait for discounts/price drops.

I'll be gaming mainly on NS2 and a rickety old PS4 for now clearing a backlog. That is the household and I.

@VoidofLight I see, sorry. As a general question for gamers was my mind's thinking. I agree the costs are silly for NS2 software but hardware costs for all 3, or even 2 of the 3, consoles we are talking about are astronomical in themselves. Particularly so!

I actually couldn't get into the first Fantasy Life game on 3DS, despite appreciating it's a good game. I may well skip this iteration for now and consider it much later on, I'm unsure tbf

@VoidofLight How much do you pay for the hardware for other consoles?

As I enjoyed this on the Wii and the 3DS, I didn't go for the triple dip. It is a superb platformer though. One of the best ever, for me.

There will be more Switch 1 games, but there won't be that many IMO

I'll need reviews to come up with something for me. Nothing for me as of now.

EDIT: Not all necessarily day 1, LOL. Only 5 Switch 2s are day 1. And 2 Switch 1s.

In a technological sense it seems quite interesting. But I can't afford all these hardware costs together with software. LOL

You have yourselves a physicl purchase from myself. Thank you.

Ha ha. This should be interesting. I'll be up for it.

I didn't pick any up. Unusual for me tbh

As someone pointed out these aren't really upgrades. More updates to enable smooth Switch 2 playability with those additional features like GameShare. They're not the LoZ or Kirby upgrades that you have to pay out for. This is another thing that may cause consumers confusion unfortunately

This reviewed well, but didn't get the sales apparently? That true?

The trailer has me intrigued to be honest with you

I love the books and the films. But only a handful or so of the games have been good IMO.

Big Brain Academy was a fun Wii and DS game that was equally fun on the Switch 1 too.

I'm not sure I want to take space up by porting all these to my Switch 2 console. We'll see.

Kirby, LoZ seem to be getting significant upgrades therefore.

I'll take a quality remake of the original. Even a port of the original and the ds game. LOL

So these aren't graphical upgrades like the TLOZ games? I'll obviously gratefully take them.

Switch 2
Mario Kart World
Street Fighter 6 Yr1-2 Ed.
(Pro controller)
(Screen protectors and protective casing!)

Upgrade packs for LoZ games and Kirby.

A bit later on:

Cyberpunk 2077
Yakuza 0
Raidou Remastered
Deltarune 1-4

Nothing for me this week.

High on Life maybe later pending reviews

Your headline is possibly intentionally or unintentionally cheeky in the "oh la la", "Carry On Gaming" sense. Ha ha ha.

Yeah. I remember it being nails but it always drew you back because it was simply a cracking game. Looking forward to reliving it. Ha ha.

A good month. Pretty much all of those are of interest. Some of them already wishlisted.

Mario Galaxy 3.

We've been fed well with Splatoon, Xenoblade Chronicles and Luigi's Mansion on Switch 1

Smash Bros as well please

Day one if it does come to the Nintendo Switch 2. A fan of the anime and a fair few of the video games.

Pro Contoller, screen protector and carry case. For now. Glad th Switch 1 controllers work on the Switch 2 system. Got the Lexar 1tb micro sd card express too.

I have a PowerA wireless Switch 1 GC Controller already. Hopefully works on Switch 2.

Proper cartridges will be prized purchasein the Switch 2 era. 😅
