Re: Sony Vet Shuhei Yoshida Says Nintendo Is "Losing Their Identity" With Switch 2

LEGEND_MARIOID

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

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: Opinion: A Few Too Many Questions & Unwelcome Surprises Are Taking The Shine Off The Switch 2 Reveal

The hybrid console has been a giant of a seller for Nintendo. No way in dell they are dropping that concept after it's success. I love the concept. Also, the console price was about £25-£30 more than expected for me. Maybe in percentage terms that isn't a lot. But the software physical prices are mad at the moment. Hopefully when retailers start competing against eachother they go down. I can see me going mostly digital unfortunately which now goes onto the question of express SD cards. They are NOT plentiful enough at the moment. That will pose a problem! I think it will sell well intially, but I hope it doesn't go the way of the GameCube in terms of sales eventually. That was a powerful console of its time as well. Luckily I don't have a PS5 yet, so I may be able to "afford" it a first

Re: Sonic X Shadow Generations "Coming Soon" To Switch 2, Here's A First Look

LEGEND_MARIOID

Paying full price for the game again so soon is a no no for me. We have an excellent version on the Switch 1 which has been scored quite highly across the board via reliable reviewers and even generally.

Switch 2 version I'm sure will look really nice but this a little bit taking the micky out of consumers.

How about new games SEGA (Yakuza O, Two Point Museum, Raidou -nice one) or a Nintendo like graphical upgrade pack?

Also, software prices for Switch 2 will be quite high won't they? Between £66-£75!

Re: Sega Announces Five Titles For Switch 2 "Launch Window"

I love ShadowxSonic Generations but I'm not buying a Switch 2 version when I can play the Switch 1 version on the same console (?). Yeah, upgraded visuals and all, but it's the stellar gameplay which I love.

Raidou and Yakuza 0 please.

Surely we get the stellar P3Remaster on the Switch 2!

Re: Poll: So, How Would You Rate The Nintendo Switch 2 Direct?

7 /10 or a 7.5/10

Some real surprises as to the 3rd party ports there. Hopefully we see them soon and well optimized. Silksong, MK World, Kirby announcements and 3D DK were highlights, but a lot a very interesting stuff there.

Not interested as of now in "enhanced visual remasters" of NS1 games.

Could have seen more first party stuff, was surprised we didn't.

Also microSD express cards aren't plentiful and not produced in that high a storage yet.
