@Toastmaster Well, Nintendo didn't seem to send dev kits to really anyone, it seems.
I don't believe they oppose Xbox games on the platform. There are multiple from Bethesda and other Xbox studios on Switch 1. And Indy is confirmed to be coming next year, from Bethesda, who is also porting Fallout 4
the only reason I buy consoles is for the exclusives. The only reason.
Why would I ever buy a new Xbox if I have to have a PS for PS exclusives and a Nintendo console for Nintendo exclusives, both of which have Xbox's games on them as well?
This is Xbox throwing in the towel like Sega did when they put Sonic on everything
if any game is worth playing, it wouldn't be found only on phones. It would also be made available on real gaming platforms. Thats always the real indicator of quality

Re: Pokémon Pokopia Is Nintendo's First Game-Key Card Release
key card = no buy from me, bub
Re: Reggie Is "Surprised" We Haven't Seen More Xbox Titles On Switch 2
The lack of Oblivion Remastered is strange to me. And no Outer Worlds 2. Or Avowed.
Come on Xbox
Re: Dynasty Warriors: Origins' Major DLC Hits The Battlefield The Same Day As Switch 2
Not included in the standard game? I'll pass and wait for a sale then
Re: Pokémon Legends: Z-A's Mega Dimension DLC Scores December Release Date
I thought it was Feb? Wow that is much sooner
Re: Raidou Remastered Is Getting A Free Demo On Switch & Switch 2
I really wanted to like this game, and I like most SMT games. This just didn't do it for me though
Re: Nintendo On Why The Mario Kart World Album Isn't Available For Nintendo Music
So where is all the Xenoblade music??

i enjoy musou games

Re: Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition Brings The Apocalypse To Switch 2 In 2026
F3 and NV are better games. I am disappointed its just Fallout 4 being ported
Re: Marvel Cosmic Invasion Scores December Release Date And Two New Fighters
I'd like to play as Doom or Magneto
Re: Review: Persona 3 Reload (Switch 2) - A Great Remake, But Still Not Definitive
not including the DLC with a full price port is near criminal. Square is selling FF7R for $40 with all DLC
Re: Absolum And Ball X Pit Post Excellent Initial Sales, But They Deserve More
poor release dates. FF Tactics, Pokemon, and Persona all released in the same period and are getting my attention
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Pokémon Legends: Z-A?
I enjoy the game. Is it worth $70? Absolutely not. Is it better than Arceus? Nope. Does it still feel like a PS2-era game? Yep.
Re: Poll: Is It About Time Game Freak Added Voice Acting To Pokémon?
this was overdue 10 years ago
Re: Pokémon Legends: Z‑A Ranked Battles Season 1 Now Live, Reach 'Rank K' For A Special Reward
seems like a very stupid decision to run seasonal online content when day one buyers haven't beaten the game
Re: Review: Pokémon Legends: Z-A - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition - Stellar Battles, But A Step Down From Arceus
This was my concern. The city seems like its too small and constricted.
The lack of voices is utterly strange. I can only chalk it up to laziness and unwillingness to pay for modern gaming expectations
Re: Review: Shujinkou (Switch) - Words Whup Sticks & Stones In This Innovative Dungeon Crawler
Definitely will pick this up at some point. Looks fun and I'd love to see if it helps actually teach Japanese basics
Re: Video: 11 Exciting New Games Coming To Switch 1 & 2 In October 2025
Oct is a busy month for me. I just got FF Tactics and Ghost of Yotei but am also getting:
Just too much to play. I also want Mortal Kombat and Digimon
Re: Poll: How Many New Games Do You Buy In A Year?
Are we talking retail AAA games? If so, ~1/month.
If we are including cheaper Indies, its far more than that
Re: Review: Fire Emblem Shadows (Mobile) - Flat F2P Folly With Simplistic Strategy & Social Deduction

Re: Review: Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition - An Excellent Port Of A Timeless Classic
I really dont understand why Square ignores content from previous re-releases of its games when it puts them out again. Why?
Re: New Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Trailer Showcases The Remakes' Fresh Features
not buying a game key card.
Definitely will buy in ~6 months for a discounted digital price though
Re: Opinion: Metroid Prime 4 Reminds Me Of Gears 5, And It's Making Me Nervous
would be nice if Metroid got even half the marketing effort that Kirby Riders and Pokemon ZA have been getting. Try harder Nintendo
Re: Marvel Vs. Capcom Fighting Collection Sells 1 Million Copies
Disney seems to have no issue resurrecting old Marvel (and Star Wars) games. I would bet we could see a MvC 3 re-release at some point
Re: Super Mario Galaxy 1 + 2 Prices Are Live, And It's Sticker Shock Time
$70!? Nintendo is insane. Thats a hard no
Re: Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave Charges Onto Switch 2 In 2026
Sothis seems to confirm this is the 3 Houses world. Thats interesting
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Direct September Predictions - What Do You Hope To See?
Metaphor should have already been announced as a port. Where is it SEGA!?
Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Direct September Predictions - What Do You Hope To See?
I really want Hades 2. A lot. Thats the only thing on that list that stands out to me.
I just want to see some first party games exclusive to Switch 2. DK is great but Kirby Riders does nothing for me
Where are all of Xbox's promised ports? Diablo 4 would be great. Gears? Halo? Doom Dark Ages? Starfield? Outer Worlds 2?
Re: Nintendo's Patent On 'Sub Characters' Could Have Some Dire Ramifications
I don't see how this is legal. This is a common mechanic. Nintendo should be sued by the entire industry
Re: Nintendo Life Reader Survey 2025
I generally do not buy games at $70. But I will buy those same games on sale. So I was confused by the language in that question
Re: Poll: Three Months In, How Would You Rate Switch 2's Library So Far?
@TerribleTerabytes ugh, my heart! You hit me where I live, man
Re: Poll: Three Months In, How Would You Rate Switch 2's Library So Far?
MK:W went by quickly for me. The open world was bland an uninteresting, and online is too limited. Super disappointing - MK8 was better.
DK was fantastic. A top tier 1st party release.
Cyberpunk is a fantastic port and I'm loving it portable.
But thats it. I have just 3 Switch 2 games and I see nothing else to buy on the horizon thats an exclusive. Why do I own this again, Nintendo?
Re: Review: Star Wars Outlaws (Switch 2) - An Underrated Adventure, A Super-Solid Port
@Ashfordwasp not really. the main character only exists in the game, though of course you'll miss the references to stuff from other Star Wars media
Re: Review: Star Wars Outlaws (Switch 2) - An Underrated Adventure, A Super-Solid Port
Glad to hear it runs well.
Wish we could get ports of the Jedi games from EA
Re: Review: Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion (Switch 2) - Decently Deep Mech Combat, But Clunky In Parts
glad I sat on this. $70 is crazy for a mediocre experience
Re: Nintendo Music Adds Fire Emblem: Awakening Soundtrack In New Update
FINALLY good music added for once.
But where is Xenoblade!?
Re: Publisher Acclaim Is Set To Host Its Own Showcase Next Month
What IPs does Acclaim even have of note?
Re: Opinion: We Need To Talk About X Games
If the letter X is in a title, I will pronounce it as a letter X.
If you want a different word, like 'cross', then use 'cross'!
Re: Where To Pre-Order Kirby Air Riders For Nintendo Switch 2
I hope Costco offers a discount like with DK. I won't spend $70 on a game
Re: Trails In The Sky 1st Chapter Switch 2 Edition 'Upgrade Pack' Confirmed
demo seems to be MIA
Re: Indiana Jones And The Great Circle Will Launch On Switch 2 In 2026
fantastic game. May buy it here, since I no longer sub to Game Pass
Re: Kirby Air Riders Zooms Onto Switch 2 This November
looks fun, but $70 is a very hard sell for me with any game. And this isn't doing it
Re: Preview: Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion - A Smart Evolution For Mech Fans, And A Good Early Test For Switch 2
this sounds really cool, and I struggled to get into the original.
$70 is really steep. And I usually have a policy not to pay that much for any game
Re: Shin'en Announces 'The Touryst: Deluxe', Exclusive To Switch 2
it just looks like Minecraft to me. They need more unique visuals
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch 2's GameCube Library Next Week
I'm here for Fire Emblem and Pokemon. This ain't it
Re: Rift Of The NecroDancer's Next Indie Crossover DLC Arrives On Switch Soon
@ImpromptuR nah this isn't a "youngster" thing.
I love handhelds so that I can have a game available to play while doing something else (like having something on the TV)
Re: Rift Of The NecroDancer's Next Indie Crossover DLC Arrives On Switch Soon
never heard of Everhood
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting The Switch 2's Next Exclusive 'Drag x Drive'?
Nope. the forced use of the mouse controls kill it for me. Along with it being multiplayer focused
