This is fundamentally a bolt on to help sell the camera. And to be fair rather than a £50 game with little content, I applaud the direction Nintendo have taken to create a bolt. But maybe a better bundle would have been the game + bolt on + camera all at a £79.99 (original game price £40+upgrade code £10 + camera £30)
Yeah it would be nice to get a global numbers update as I feel they have either fixed the launch stock issues or the switch 2 sales have dropped off a cliff. As I’m seeing NSW2 everywhere and even in secondhand shops.
A direct is needed. If they want to keep the momentum with switch 2 sales. I’d be keen to know how it’s doing as I see stock everywhere and loads of switch owners just saying they have no interest in upgrade yet.
Yes it’s a combo of issues, the main being price point for games have now reduced the amount of title people will buy. Bear in mind for many they have just forked out a ton on Nintendo hardware just a month ago.
@Dragnoran Yes, I imagine now wilds is out the A team will start the ball rolling on a Switch title. Whilst the B team continues with the G rank expansion. Tho I’m expecting a worlds port or a remaster before they announce a main stream title. They could go down the route of World port followed by a wilds port which would bring the franchises together for future releases.
I’m glad I didn’t go with the mark 1 as it’s got a lot of underlying issues which need to be resolved. Overheating in sleep mode, joy cons snapping, case issues, and other glitches and bugs along with issues with the online lag in GameCube games and over populated lobby’s in 2 player online games. And not to mention that dreadful battery. So I’ll wait switched 1 has plenty still going for it and with no monster hunter game on the switch 2 I’m not in any hurry to pick it it. Mark 2 will be along in a year and i will probably expect a monster hunter game about 1 year in as well so I’ll sit it out for another 12 months plus.
What I’m finding confusing is the continued support Xbox is getting yet the sales numbers are showing in many cases it wasn’t financially worthwhile to have programmed the Xbox version. Will there be a day when it’s just PlayStation and Switch2 releases announced?
Hang on didn’t the shareholders say that didn’t like or support the NS2 vision at the last meeting, now they are not happy Nintendo didn’t make enough?
Hard to say what’s next but with the DK game mechanics similar to Mario I would imagine they will give it a year before release so maybe next Xmas. These two plonkers don’t have a clue and never did when they worked for Nintendo
The problem is it’s not running very well! Huge lag delay issues. If you play soul calibur online it gives you 4 players in the lobby when it’s only using 2 this leaves the other 2 players to lag the game. They can even hijack the game.
The online input lag is a joke on Soul Calibur, and how do you switch off 4player online when the game is only 2 player? As the other 2 players just increase the lag. And can take control of the match. The only video I’ve found don’t show the solution. Just the issues.

Re: Feature: The One Thing Wii Did Much Better Than Switch
How hard is it to bundle a sensor bar with a gun game or gun game collection and have them all working with the ir and bar.

Re: Nintendo Has Seemingly Taken Further Steps To Combat 'eSlop' On Switch 2

Re: Switch Port Specialist Believes Switch 2 Can Surpass Its Predecessor's Success
Drop the key cards and just give us physical or digital.
Fix the issues with the mark 1 and maybe someday I’ll invest in a NS2

Re: Switch 2 Dock Supports VRR After All, But It Doesn't Actually Work With Console
Well that’s crappy
Re: Random: Of Course Helldivers Are Now Calling For A Switch 2 Port
What I’m finding confusing is the continued support Xbox is getting yet the sales numbers are showing in many cases it wasn’t financially worthwhile to have programmed the Xbox version.
Will there be a day when it’s just PlayStation and Switch2 releases announced?
Re: Wait, 'Busted' Member Is The Singer Of Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds' Opening?

Looks fun but let’s hope it’s not much like a warriors game.
Re: Preview: Donkey Kong Bananza - DK's Getting His Own Odyssey, And It's A Helluva Trip
This game feels like an £80 game where Mario kart feels more like an £60 game
Re: Best Nintendo Switch 2 Gaming Headsets
@Lord the problem is I use my switch in a cupboard with the door shut. So the ugly thing can’t be seen.

Re: Feature: Every Switch 2 Launch Game, Ranked
These scores are bloody ridiculous. All the games on key cards should get points deducted.
Re: Japanese Charts: Mario Kart World Speeds Past 1 Million Physical Sales
Do they have availability issues in Japan or does 140k seem like it’s run out of steam.

Re: Former Nintendo Duo Fear We Might Be Waiting A While For A 3D Mario On Switch 2, Thanks To Donkey Kong

Re: PSA: Select GameCube Games Can Be Played In Widescreen Mode On Switch 2
The online input lag is a joke on Soul Calibur, and how do you switch off 4player online when the game is only 2 player?
As the other 2 players just increase the lag. And can take control of the match.
The only video I’ve found don’t show the solution. Just the issues.
