I fail to see the logic there, I'm sorry... You can still download all the Wii games you bought even tho the shop was closed years ago, same for 3DS.

Not sure what got you all thinking that Nintendo will shut down your console or prevent you from downloading games you already purchased from sheer pleasure.

Just so we're clear, I do not agree with their policies as well, but it's no different than what other companies have done in the past. Right now, you're just all scaremongering.

Let's agree to disagree here.

@Vlash Either I misunderstood what you just said, or you don't know what you're talking about.

I literally just cut the internet connection to my Switch 2 and started Octopath Traveler 0 (Switch 2 GameKey card) without any issues whatsoever.

The only thing you need, is an internet connection to download the game. Which, btw is the same thing Playstation and Xbox do. Let's be honest too, who doesn't have a damn Internet connection in 2026 to download games?

I truly hope that I just misunderstood your comment, and that you just didn't make a false assumption without verifying yourself, cause all it took me was 2 minutes to prove your statement wrong.

@rawzeku While not perfect, Daybreak 1 and 2 are actually not that horrible.

I tested Cold Steel 3 yesterday before going to sleep... it was horrible.

Horrible graphics, slow game, FPS drops, latency issues, game breaking bugs and malfunctioning Turbo mode. (All of these occured in the Demo)

@Serpenterror How is this a fake game? Wtf? The cardridge can still be sold to someone or a store if you're tired of it lol.

I find it funny that people are crying so hard about the Game-Key Cards (I don't like them either), but refuse to blame Sony and Microsoft for doing the exact same thing with their games for a decade or so already. The only difference is that Nintendo chose to be transparent about it.

As some people said already, it seems like the information used in this post didn't have all the data.

Still, I wouldn't be surprised if it was indeed down in some places of the world, but personally, It felt the opposite.

I work at an EB Games in Canada and 60% of the consoles we sold from the Black Friday period to the Holidays were Switch 2's.

Let's not forget also that most people already bought the console in june, when it launched, or july. The Switch 2 is after all the fastest selling console of all time.

My wife will be really happy with Animal Crossing.

For me, it's Horizon, Final Fantasy 7RI and DQ7R.

Only problem is I had hoped that the Japanese Trails Horizon would get a NSW2 release, but it seems as the title is still a Playstation exclusive in Japan.

Man, I couldn't be happier right now. We have Kai releasing in a month, now 2nd confirmed for Fall 2026. The West has basically caught up with Japan so we can expect worldwide releases from now on. (1st was already worldwide, and 2nd will also be).
