@eightytwostu "We’re going to enter a AI-slop fest that will make Wii-era shovelware look like AAA Games."

Good thing that nobody forces us to buy games like that

"Not a Cloud in sight"

But isn't he supposed to be in the game though?

I still think that Metroid Prime 4 is a very fun game

May not be a good Metroid Prime game, but a good game in general

It is a huge upgrade compared to Switch 1 but in handheld mode it's still slightly blurrier than I'd like

The DLC was my least favorite mainline Pokemon 'game' ever, it actually made me like the base game less

No other DLC has ever achieved that

For comparision the sales figures of Three Houses and Engage and the number of Switch units sold by the time of their respective release:

Three Houses: 143K copies at 8.6M Switch install base
Engage: 144K copies at 28M Switch install base
Fortune Weave: 127K copies at 6.3M Switch 2 install base

Meaning 1.7% of all Switch owners picked up Three Houses when it released, 0.5% picked up Engage and 2% of all Swtch 2 owners picked up Fortnunes Weave

And that's only the physical copies, keep in mind that the number of digital sales has gone up (especially since Fortunes Weave is cheaper digital), so Fortunes Weave might actually have outsold Three Houses and Engage

I Played Mario Kart Tour One Day In Seven Years, And What Am I Left With?

On one hand i get that the scummy upgrade practice (or the lack of one) deserves to be called out

And the other hand the game isn't a 6/10

@Olliemar28 Well it's a Marvel game made by a trusted developer vs Anime chess

Even if Wolverine actually were the worst game ever it would have outsold FE

Second game with frame gen on Switch 2 (the other being Stellar Blade), very interesting

Cool to see such a feature on Switch 2 but also good that it is optional, a feature like that shouldnt be forced

Currently a 89 on Metacritic, the exact same score Three Houses got

@Alpha008 You can just create a new profile on your Switch (2), no need to delete original save files

They delayed it because ZombiU didn't meet sales expectations

Why even is this sale US only? Didn't they raise prices globally because of the tariffs?

@johnedwin FE: Three houses had tons of voiced dialogs, I think pretty much every line of dialog (except maybe NPCs) where voiced, therefore I assume the same will be the case for Fortunes Weave

Nintendo is the type of company who'd hold a dedicated Zelda Direct just to announce a Zelda related game in the general Direct anyway lol

Shame that it's releasing at a later date

@anoyonmus Well they certainly won't release brand new tracks for free

If they make substantial DLC it will be paid, if you like it or not

While I'd love to see a new 3D Mario I think it's cool that Nintendo gives Kirby and DK those big 3D platformer

And that 'world beyond' at the end of the Trailer looked great, at first the game looked a bit generic but that world beyond makes me think that this will be a great game

Best announcement of the Direct for sure

Free update is ofc nice and it's cool that we can now actually play those SNES tracks

But I really was hoping for substantial (paid) DLC

If this turns out to be true I will stay off Nintendolife whenever there is a upcoming Direct

You could have named the articles something like 'Upcoming games may have leaked' or something but no, you had to put the spoiler into the title (and sub header)

@Znake Not sure if a joke or not, but FF7 Revelation is 130GB, how would you fit that on a 64GB card? It would literally take 3 cards

Don't get me wrong, I'd love real physical media as well but sometimes one needs to realize that it's just not (reasonably) possible

I wonder if people now will have a mental breakdown like the did with Pokemon Legends ZA when the DLC was revealed before release of the main game

Looking forward to it, Remake and Rebirth are amazing games

Also please Nintendo do NOT release Xenoblade Genesis or Pokemon WiWa around that time, thx

Haven't played Minecraft in over 10 years, what the hell is a Minecoin? Since when are ingame purchases for Minecraft?

You know, I wouldnt mind daily free Switch 2 updates for Switch 1 games. First Pikmin 3, now MK8DX

Nice to finally have an update for MK8DX, I was wondering if it would ever get one considering it most likely didnt get one on release of the Switch 2 because of MK World

I'll wait for them to be officially revealed before I decide if I'll buy them or not lol

As long as it isnt ILCA

@VoidofLight "and yet they won't do it."
The game hasnt even been out for 4 months

Now if only they would fix the upscaling in XCX and the framedrops in XC as well, then they'd be (nearly) perfect

It's a great update, definitely better than the updates for XCX and XC1

Not without issues though like the audio mixing and some 30 fps animations during cutscenes (weird that those issues havent been mentioned at all in the video)

Still by far the best way to play XC2 though, happy that the game finally looks decent resolution-wise

Great, I held off of playing the game so far because of that

Stuff like that completely ruined Horizon Forbidden West and GoW:Ragnarök for me

@Lady_rosalina Wait, it was rated E in the US? The german Direct I watched was Pegi 18 lol

Funny how they only showed her in her least revealing outfits

Atlus: "GTA6 won't come to Switch 2 anyway so we might as well release it in November"

Also no Persona 4 and 6

If there's one thing I did expect to be shown in this Direct, it's absolutely not this

Finally, after over one year of waiting they showed... absolutely nothing

Shame that they didn't really show what the game looks like (beside the small teaser)

MK World DLC, something Xenoblade, Persona 4 and 6

@Indielink Tbf that's to be expected when I think around 500-600k people bought one building up to the weeks before the price increase

Many people who would have bought one this week (and the coming weeks) bought one before the price increase instead

People acting like the Switch 2 is selling poorly now when in reallity it just reverted back to normal

Cant wait for the game to take up all storage on a 512GB micro sd

This looks amazing. And it finally looks good graphically (bet people still will complain though). And I'm so exited that there will be an underwater world, honestly that region reminds me of Hoenn 2.0

Surprised that it releases next year though, that's 5 years between new gens. Guess GameFreak finally learned and seemingly it payed off

Glad to see that Flygon is on that list

Should have remade Final Fantasy 13 if Light(n)ing is important

"In handheld mode, you can use the touchscreen, but gyro control (for the pointer) is also available, which was missing from 3D All-Stars"

Thank god, gyro control my not be ideal in handheld mode but it's still miles better than having to use the touchscreen.
Also there are parts in Galaxy 2 that would be straight up be unplayable without it (there are parts where you need to press A to jump with Yoshi, use the C-stick to move left or right and use the pointer to aim at a point for Yoshi to cling onto)

She is from the Hoenn region and invented the PokeNav

Call me crazy but games have become so detailed and busy to look at that I don't mind a game having dated visuals. At least it looks better than PLA and SV

As long as it is fun and runs well that's good enough for me

@Warioware I already played Yakuza 7 and 8 and both Judgement games so I know I will like them

Just havent gotten around to play the Kiryu games yet
