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.
I'm no PC game or Steam Deck owner but I respect that region of gaming. Switch 2 all the way for me considering my own household gaming needs. TBF, even as an individual I have never been interested in PC gaming despite dabbling, despite gaming on and off since the Atari 2600 years..... I also therefore have never been interested in the Steam Deck. It has been successful tech unlike the PSP though
I liked the original but not sure it's worth a double dip, even if Switch 2 level hd-fied. I may actually have the original downloaded or "archived" on my 3DS? I actually adjusted that feature quite a lot to help the experience and occassional need to grind. Never mind.
I own and have played DNF duel and Chaos Code. Both solid 2D fighters that I'd like to add my voice to the recommendations. Gigabash is on my backlog. My youngest has played it and enjoyed it. Muv Luv and Silt on my wishlist.
I must confess I haven't heard of many of the other games and I like to think I have my finger to the pulse with regard to the Switch eShop.
I think 2S has some cool new modes compared to Switch 1 no.2 apparently. It will be a good purchase download for those who haven't played it before IMO.
Thing is though with the expensive software of NS 2 I can't see me purchasing this till maybe later in the year, if that. This is considering I have the serviceable no.2 (minus some modes that are on 2S) on NS1 already. Lower down on the priority list.
Had I known this was coming to the NS2 previously, I would not have bought the NS1 version. I will stick to the NS1 version and just transfer it over. It's very good already. I doubt SEGA do an "upgrade scheme" at a small price.
It seemed almost nailed on this would be great considering who was involved with making the game. As expected then! Reads spot on the kind of video game I'd really be into. Insta-downloand. Cheers for the review.
The last time something like this happened my pre-order mysteriously changed to "out of stock". I went back on amazon to see the game at a much higher price.
I am lucky enough to have played the vast majority of these. Just Card Shark, the Trails game, Volgar II on my wishlist get to download.....maybe it's time!
Switch 1 is heading towards being the 2nd best selling system of all time. It's only common sense to do an "upgraded version" in the Switch 2 with some features that are not currently on any other console system out there at the moment. It's bit like the NES to SNES and GB to GBA upgrades. It's been done before and is common sense. Think the comment was not well thought out. It's like saying PSBOX consoles have little to know identity since their first iterations, which would be balderdash
Reads like a solid metroidvania but not for me I think. Metroidvania have to be compelling for me othewise I don't see them all the way through unfortunately. There are also plenty of those compelling metroidvanias in the eShop sea and probably on my backlog. Cheers for the review
I got the pre-order for my Switch 1 from GAME. I remember driving after work to the local shopping centre where it was located. Good times. That shut down now and it has a set of shelves and one till in a Sports Direct store somewhere near home. Quite sad really. The physical trading where online buyers were misbehaving was good. Goodbye old friend.
I don't currently have a PS5. I didn’t upgrade from PS4 because it has a good enough back catalogue and it was my secondary console. I'll keep my Switch 1 and get a Switch 2 instead. With several members of the household playing the hybrid console it is worth it. The software prices are too high, that's just obvious. You can talk about mostly no microtransactions, but still. As a result I'll probably not go all in at lauch for my own personal "A-Tier" choices of games and jusy concentrate on the "absolute essential, S-Tier choice" purchases. The rest will have to wait till discounted or if retailers start competing against eachother and lowering the price enough for me.

Re: Video: Here's Another Look At The Lord Of The Rings 'Tales Of The Shire' Game

Re: ICYMI: 12 Switch Games Will Receive Free Switch 2 Upgrades
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.
Re: Rumour: Yuji Horii Might Have Let Slip Some Massive Remake News
I'll take a quality remake of the original. Even a port of the original and the ds game. LOL
Re: ICYMI: 12 Switch Games Will Receive Free Switch 2 Upgrades
So these aren't graphical upgrades like the TLOZ games? I'll obviously gratefully take them.

Re: Too Saucy For Xbox, 'Steam-Heart’s Saturn Tribute' Lands On Switch This May
Your headline is possibly intentionally or unintentionally cheeky in the "oh la la", "Carry On Gaming" sense. Ha ha ha.
Re: Video: Nintendo Shares More Footage Of F-Zero GX For Switch Online
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.

Smash Bros as well please
Re: Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero Has Been Rated For Switch 2

Re: Poll: GameStop Offers A Tempting Switch 2 Trade-In Deal, But Is It Really Worth It?
I need the Switch 1 to store my Switch 1 games! No use in transfering over with the mammoth GIG Switch 2 software! Ha.

Re: Atlus Reveals 'RAIDOU Remastered' Switch 2 Performance And Resolution
@Mushvision Finally amazon uk released the 1TB Lexar microSD express. Amazon US had them from a few weeks ago?
Re: Atlus Reveals 'RAIDOU Remastered' Switch 2 Performance And Resolution
I managed to get a 1TB ex micro sd thankfully. That's going to get eaten up super quick, aint it?
I'm going to purchase this since it is Atlus. I really like their work. Not sure if it'll be NS no.1 or no.2 .....
Re: Bravely Default On Switch 2 May Have Removed One Of The Game's Best Features
I liked the original but not sure it's worth a double dip, even if Switch 2 level hd-fied. I may actually have the original downloaded or "archived" on my 3DS? I actually adjusted that feature quite a lot to help the experience and occassional need to grind. Never mind.
Re: Community: 38 Switch Games We Missed, As Recommended By You

This is a great feature.

Re: More Switch 2 Estimated File Sizes Seemingly Revealed
Will be making good use of archiving feature then alongside my lexar express 1tb sd card. Hoh boy....
Got the amazon priced street fighter 6 "physical". I'll probably only get Cyberpunk out of the ones listed in the immediate future.
Re: Fast Fusion Price On Switch 2 Puts Welcome Tour To Shame
Insta-download. I like the series as it is and that price has it decided for me.
Re: Nintendo Download: 24th April (North America)
Nothing for me this week. Will wait for Super Technos World reviews before deciding on downloading that one.
Re: Poll: So, Did You Manage To Get A Switch 2 Pre-Order In? (North America)
Got mine via the invite scheme. Kart and NS2 bundle baby.
Re: Hori's New Switch 2 Camera Is Built For Handheld Play
May get this if more and more video games start to use it. Probably won't get it right away.
The Nintendo 3DS & Wii U had an internally built camera....
The 480p makes me wince though, ha.

Re: Nintendo Download: 18th April (North America)
Nothing for me this week. May consider Lunar Remastered further down the line when on sale. I, Robot further down the line too, possibly.
Re: CD Projekt Red Coy On Witcher 3 Upgrade For Switch 2
Witcher 4?
Witcher 3 was outstanding. So glad I played it on the Switch 1.
Would prefer games from them we haven't seen already on Nintendo platforms tbh
Re: Sony Vet Shuhei Yoshida Says Nintendo Is "Losing Their Identity" With Switch 2
Playstation and Nintendo serve all players in good ways. Things could be better and prices are getting silly, but it's a good landcape.

Re: Zelda: BOTW Switch 2 Edition Won't Include The DLC, Nintendo Confirms
Already have it but that's a shame.
Re: Round Up: The First Impressions Of Donkey Kong Bananza Are In
It looks and reads like Super Mario Odyssey 2 with DK gloriously smashing up the place and precisely 3D platforming. My kinda thang to a tee
Re: Video: Nintendo Today Gives Us Another Look At Zelda: Wind Waker For Switch Online
PowerA GC controller and Wii GC controller with adaptor. That'll do for me in playing this.
Seems there is one game to keep the Wii U for now? Ha ha (along with a handful of others and actual owned VC tbf)
Re: Review: Gal Guardians: Servants Of The Dark (Switch) - Cracking Combat In This Character-Swapping Metroidvania

Re: UK Retailer GAME Is Selling Off Goods And Fixtures As Head Office Shuts Down

Re: Feature: Nintendo Life eShop Selects (March 2025)
Just Breakout Beyond for me. Rift of the Necrodancer and Saga Frontier 2R is on the wishlist for now
Re: Opinion: The Switch 2 Is A Powerhouse For The Price
I don't currently have a PS5. I didn’t upgrade from PS4 because it has a good enough back catalogue and it was my secondary console. I'll keep my Switch 1 and get a Switch 2 instead. With several members of the household playing the hybrid console it is worth it. The software prices are too high, that's just obvious. You can talk about mostly no microtransactions, but still. As a result I'll probably not go all in at lauch for my own personal "A-Tier" choices of games and jusy concentrate on the "absolute essential, S-Tier choice" purchases. The rest will have to wait till discounted or if retailers start competing against eachother and lowering the price enough for me.
Re: Nintendo Download: 10th April (North America)
Star Overdrive when discounted only and I'll go ahead and download the Monument Valley games.
Re: Zelda Wind Waker Switch 2 GameCube Release Doesn't Rule Out HD Port
They will probably also not rule out remasters of other GC games!
Re: Poll: Did You Get A Switch 2 Purchase Invite From Nintendo Yet? (Europe)
Yes. And successfully pre-ordered thankfully.
Good luck to everyone else.
