No 60fps is the killer here. The Switch 2 upgrades are just not worth it without it.

Now if only Nintendo would adopt some basic accessibility options in their own games. Too many lack full button remapping, forcing you to rely on the terrible system wide remapping function.

A lot of people seem to forget that a 9/10 is still an extremely good score. Read the review people!

After years and years of waiting since the announcement trailer, this is barely anything more than that trailer was. Stop announcing games too early!

Honestly not surprising since the game has severe image quality issues, and Nintendo's internal teams seem to be allergic to anti aliasing and DLSS. It's such a weird situation where third-party developers seem to be more interested in taking advantage of the hardware's capabilities more than the company who is selling the hardware itself.

Still, the art direction is great, and I'm looking forward to playing it.

They're cowards for not calling this Final Fantasy 17.

The gold standard for RPG remakes. Other developers, including SquareEnix, should be taking notes.

Looking forward to the game. My biggest concern is the honestly really poor image quality. It's...rough. The amount of aliasing and pixel crawling/shimmering in all the footage of the game is some of the worst I've seen in a long time. And no, it's not from video compression of the footage.

Regardless, it should be fun to finally play through this game again after probably 25 years for me personally.

This game would have sold so much more if it had cross save and cross play. I know I would have rebought it on PC if I could have transferred my progress from the Switch version. Such a missed opportunity by Capcom. This is easily my favorite Monster Hunter game.

@Olliemar28 As some honest feedback, I very much disagree with you that it's obvious it was talking about a period of time. I didn't even think of that at all until I went into the comments.

I was looking forward to this game back when it was originally announced since I loved Diablo 3. But the always online requirement killed that excitement, so I chose other games to spend my time with.

I really liked DQ11, even if I only consider it an 8/10 game (still means it's good!). But to ask full price to upgrade and no save transfer is beyond moronic.

The PS4 version runs at 60fps. Absolutely no reason for the Switch 2 version to not also hit that benchmark outside of pure laziness.

@Jeronan Sakurai is not Nintendo...

I kind of feel like Fire Emblem just isn't for me anymore. I used to love this series, but Three Houses just wasn't it, and this one seems to double down on the problems I had with that game. There is such a thing as too much content. Engage was much better, so I was hoping things were moving in the right direction, but it seems that just isn't case unfortunately.

One of my all time favorite games. I would throw money at him if he makes it happen.

Pretty much the most "of course it's happening" leak ever. Anyone could make that claim and the odds of it being true regardless of if they made up the leak is basically 100%.

Really wish Smash would get a 4K resolution update as well. Would help a lot with this game since the camera zooms out a lot during free for all matches.

Sadly, not for me, since I don't have anyone to play it with.

Props to Capcom for finally doing the right thing and adding a 30fps cap option to one of their Switch 2 games. They seriously need to go back and add that to all of their previous releases on Switch 2. It's insane that it took them this long.

Already played through it on another platform, so I won't be double dipping on it, but Elden Ring is one of the greatest video games I have ever played in my life. Sunk about 260 hours into it, and every minute of that was a blast.

Haha, at least I didn't miss out! Was disappointed that it was scheduled for so early in the morning in my region.

Looking forward to the network test this weekend. I'm hoping it grabs me more than Elden Ring Nightreign did, which I just couldn't get into (and I absolutely loved Elden Ring and other Fromsoft games).

@trobby I don't know what videos you've been watching, but I've never seen them do that, and I watch all of their videos. Sounds like you just have an axe to grind with DF for no discernible reason.

@trobby You haven't been watching their coverage of the game if you think they've been glossing over the issues with the game on other systems. They've been hammering this game for over a year over its problems on other consoles. It's been one of their biggest punching bags in a long time.

Unfortunately not even remotely surprising considering the state of the game on other platforms. And having uneven frame pacing at all times with a 30fps cap is insane. For as bad as the game is on other consoles, that is so much worse.

No button remapping options makes it a non starter for me. I almost always remap my buttons for shmups.

Personally, I think just buying a MiSTer is a far better investment. It has excellent N64 support, plus a ton of other consoles and arcade hardware supported. Best gaming investment I've made in the last 20 years.

Completely agree that Engage was better than Three Houses. I don't have the time to put 200+ hours into an SRPG by playing through it 3 or 4 times to get the full story. I vastly prefer a single focused campaign. Sometimes less is more.

What a shame. FF9 is one of the best games in the series. Probably top 3 along with FF6 and FF4.

So it doesn't have the issue that's on other consoles (like PS5) where the performance gets worse as you play the game and need to constantly shut down the game and reboot it to fix it? I wonder if they'll ever fix that on PS5. It's plagued the game ever since it launched and they never fixed it.

This game is a disaster on PS5 still, so it's really hard to imagine that it won't be busted on Switch 2 as well unfortunately. Really wish they would go back and fix it already.

It needs control options. I hated that I couldn't swap the trigger and shoulder buttons. They put them backwards from what actually makes sense. And the only way to "fix" it was to go into the system wide settings and do a custom button mapping setup, but then that messes it up for all games on the console until you go back in and swap it again. Just insane that Nintendo continues to be one of the few publishers that consistently doesn't include robust control options in their games.

Sadly, this game is launching right around the same time as Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter, and that game will take priority for me personally. Not sure when I'll ever get to Fire Emblem, which is not something I ever thought I'd say. But Trails is just that good.

Honestly, I ended up not liking this game much (on PS5). I love arcade racers, but this one just didn't hit with me personally. It feels over designed with too many mechanics. Especially for an arcade racer.

Can it also create friends for you? Because that's the biggest hurdle of all!

Heck yeah, I've been waiting so long for this one since it was announced! Always loved Truxton.

@Raffles An even better example. The original Castlevania on the NES runs at 60fps. You need to look at the failures back in the day to find the games that didn't run at 60fps. Stuff like the awful Micronics developed Ghosts 'n Goblins on the NES.

Knew it would happen. A Switch 2 version is desperately needed. Definitely won't be getting the game on Switch. 30fps is especially bad in side scrolling action games like this due to the large amount of lateral scrolling.

@Sindayl 100% agreed. The biggest scam in gaming is having to pay to play games online on consoles. And renting poorly emulated retro games is insulting. I'm a huge Nintendo fan. Always have been since the 80s. But even I can't praise their horrendous online offerings.

No upgrade path, no buy. Glad I bought 0 and 2 on PS5. But I'm stuck with 1 on Switch.

Unfortunately, 30fps just isn't good enough for me when it comes to an action RPG. Especially when there are other options out there for playing it. If it was a turn based game, I'd let it slide. But not for an action game.

I tried to get into this several times, but man the controls were just butt. I really really did not like Tour.

Nintendo is no saint, but holy crap, PS and Xbox sure make them look like one in comparison lately.

@Bustacap I actually think Super Metroid controls better than the later 2D games. It has that perfect floaty jump physics that were iconic to Metroid, and the series lost that identity with later games. It also has amazing wall jump mechanics that feel better than later games.

Honestly? Not surprising. I personally don't care since I've been buying all digital on every platform since the launch of the Wii U. Feel bad for everyone that still buys physical though. I still feel that a game key card is worse than digital, because it's still digital but you also need to insert the card every time you want to play the game.

Thankfully I have no issues with audio lag with my setup. Got the medal in every mini game in the demo on the first try. Probably because I use an audio receiver that my Switch 2 is plugged directly into.

@NerdyPaul But Star Fox 64 is already a reimagining of the SNES game! So wanting a reimagining would be like wanting a reimagining of a reimagining! It's reimagine-ception!

Truly vile behavior. I honestly just want to get rid of my Series X at this point. I only even use it as a Daytona USA machine these days, and there are other ways to play that game.

Will get this on my PS5 to avoid the performance issues eventually. But right now I'm in the middle of Octopath 0, so I'll probably just wait for a sale.
