Ahh the brave one who faced off against Silksong. Now the dust has settled with Silksong, will Samsara finally get its time?!

Tbh it looks quite nice, may pick up eventually. Glad the devs didn’t give up after what must have been, the very worst case scenario for them

Dinkum and Lorelei and the Laser Eyes have just had NS2 update shadow drops for anyone interested

Im patiently waiting for my copy of Xenoblade Chronicles X NS2 edition to arrive today. I’m actually proud I managed to wait this long for the physical release.

Whilst I wait for that, I’ll dip into Pokopia, Virtua Fighter 5 REVO and some SMB3D

Happy gaming weekend everyone, all is love

Gosh Capcom are on a streak right now and I’m here for it. Will get this come payday.

I made the grave mistake of getting Pokopia beginning of the week. What a game, it’s such a game in fact I barely get to play it as my girls are hooked. When they are finally in bed, I sneak in 10 minutes on that and then it’s back to Deadzone: Rogue, SMB3D and most recently Subnautica: Below Zero.
Happy Easter weekend. All is love

@HandheldHero
8bitdo Arcade Stick and M30 say hello!

Super Meat Boy 3D - been having a blast with it so far. What I class as a true sequel to the OG GOAT. Not whatever that autorunning mishap was in between.

The Easter hols are upon us and I have 10 glorious days off work and I have my girls. No doubt we’ll be playing Mario Wonder NS2 edition, Human Fall Flat and Minecraft. Will be taking advantage of the game share function as the girls have a Switch Lite each.
In the evenings, I’ll be back on Deadzone: Rogue.
All is love x

The future of gaming sucks.
Eventually it’ll only be exclusive to the rich.
However on the plus side, when gaming is eventually unaffordable, I have a backlog to last me a couple lifetimes

REmake is the only answer. Then you have the delight of the RE2/3makes following it.

I picked up Deadzone: Rogue this week on release. And I ask anyone who even has a smallest interest in Doom, Quake and Corridor shooters to get it. It is sublime.
Happy gaming, all is love.

Edit: a copy of Three Houses arrived today. So will be replaying that again as well.

Amazing news, had this since its Switch release and didn’t get far at all due to the performance. Maybe Tunic is about to get it’s time

Still been tough going filling the void since finishing RE Requiem. However this may change as I’ve just repurchased the double Subnautica pack and downloaded the S2 versions and looking forward to starting new save files this weekend.
Happy gaming, all is love

I hope it’s good for those whose main console is the Switch 2 and hasn’t played the game before. Be prepared for the same amount of awe you felt when you first played BOTW, possibly even more.

I did not intentionally mean to write a short poem..

I read an interesting post about this on Reddit, (not the most viable of sources I know), apparently because it’s a Chinese developed game, there’s no chance of them being sued. Will be interesting to see what happens next, if anything happens at all

Shame, I was waiting for Hentai Legends 11: Deluxe Nintendo Switch 2 Edition: Meet-up in hentai park, X Sonic Amy Collab

I finished Requiem a couple days ago. I’ve been torn between doing it again on the new unlocked difficulty or revisiting RE2 Remake or the Classic HD versions of 1 & 0. Because of such tough decisions, the answer is Balatro.
Happy gaming all

Going in with 0 expectations. Will be nice if lots of indies get Switch 2 editions/upgrades announced

I rated it Peak/10

Well deserved, RE Requiem is Resi at its finest. Also quite possibly the best showcase of the Switch2 hardware yet

RESIDENT EVIL REQUIEM BABY!
Big up to those doing the same, and happy gaming to everyone else.
Itchy. Tasty.

First time I’ve been gobsmacked by a main gen pokemon trailer. This looks phenomenal.

I almost got the Xbox Series S version. I’m most happy with my S2 purchase instead upon reading DF glowing remarks. Can’t wait to get home tonight

Go on then, I’ll order the generational bundle this payday.

@ozwally
The two games are directly linked so there’s some revelations and twists in village that would be completely lost on you and possibly even diminish the experience.
Also I personally think 7 is much better than Village.

@ozwally
I recommend playing 7 before Village for story purposes.

Knee deep in the Caves of Qud at the moment with Factorio on the side. Happy gaming all

MGS4 was such a good movie

Well they can add 1 sale. I purchased both at the weekend at a decent price. I’m enjoying Metroid Prime 4 so far. It looks absolutely stunning in some places.

Skyblock may be worth a new playthrough. Might be enough to convince the little ones that Terraria > Minecraft.. but I doubt it 😂

Terraria really is the game that keeps on giving. Enjoy the update fellow Terrarians

The only request I have this gen, is an Ocarina of Time Remake. It might not be the time just yet with the film coming up but I think it’s due at some point.

Still knee deep and drowning in iron plates and green circuits on Factorio. I launched my first rocket into space yesterday and now adjusting to the new Space Age mechanics. It’s become evident that the 90 or so hours I spent getting to this point was just a mere dent in the overall surface of this simulator.

The factory must continue to grow.

Happy gaming all.

I decided to start a new factory last night on Factorio . This will be the third base since I picked it up again when the S2 Edition/Space Age DLC came out. So I’ll be knee deep in that. It feels like third time lucky might play a part this time round.
Very happy gaming to you all.

Hey everyone.

This weekend I will be playing Factorio: Space Age, it’s well and truly in my veins again.
To unwind from the factory building, I’ve got Kirby and the Forgotten Land NS2 and Kirby Air Riders, I have a lot of love for the pink gooball lately and it seems so does Nintendo.
Also Hitman WOA; I’m not usually one for realistic violence in video games, but Hitman has that whole slow burn strategic element to it which doesn’t make it completely mindless murder. Also you are hunting some pretty bad dudes and dudettes.

Very happy gaming to you all

It’s absolutely sets out and does what it intends to do, and that’s relax you. However it may be too relaxing for some.

Most stunning pixel art I’ve ever seen. Just beautiful

Picked up Nier Automata: The End of Yorha edition and Shinjinkou. Can’t wait to dig into both as long as I stay away from Factorio

Kirby Air Riders is the pure embodiment of what a videogame should be. It’s pure joy and I love it.

If anything the recent “Nintendo Switch 2” game updates are a positive sign of the NS2 floodgates opening and I can’t wait for what 2026 will bring.
Factorio, Divinity OS2, Stardew all in the same month (all my faves as well) and…Skyrim (I’m hopeful it will eventually be patched up).
Any other recent NS2 updates I’ve missed? Has Nintendo Life done an updates article yet?

Update: I can see there is an article for updates. Thanks NL 😎

In terms of what games to play. Of course you have all the Switch 2 software, but give some of your old switch games a go on it, you’ll find a new lease of life in a lot of them with loading, frame rate and resolution boosts

Blade Chimera was my pick. Was a nice digestible action metroidvania that didn’t overstay its welcome.

Well that’s the Kid’s Christmas ruined. “Where’s dad? We haven’t seen him since the 22nd!”

@mattiasboden
Pretty sure we’re looking at 60 here

Just booted it up. No mouse controls but it runs smooth as butter and looks crisper. Very quick load times as well. Will be interesting to see what the bigger fights will be like because there were major frame drops in the Switch version. Overall it’s come at the perfect time, just last night I was saying I hope it gets the S2 treatment and lo and behold, get it the very next day.
To everyone in the chat who hasn’t played it or bought it and didn’t stick with it long enough. Give it a go. Divinity Original Sin 2 is one of the greatest CRPGS ever made.

Also I think this might be a good sign that Larian will continue gracing the Switch 2 with their games. BG3 and Divinity incoming 👀

No way! I redownloaded the game after the brutal announcement at the game awards. Getting on this immediately!

I’ve put a good 50 hrs into Kirby Air Riders. I think with the game in its current state, I could easily put in another 50 or so more. An amazing game, having so much fun with it.

This might be the most logical thing Nintendo has done.

Let’s hear everyone’s predictions for top3 played games. No checking your playtime or switch apps please.
I think mine will be
1.The Binding of Isaac: Repentance - easily put about 400 hrs into this beginning of the year bringing my total playtime to around 1300 hrs in 8 years.
2. Ball x Pit - hitting around the 155 hr mark.
3. Battle Brothers - 130 hrs I think.

Runners up - SMTVengence and Powerwash Simulator 2

Divinity Original Sin 2 was one of the greatest shadow drops on Switch 1 ever. (I think it was a shadow drop 🙃). Will happily welcome anything from Larian with their track record. BG3 anyone?

Kirby Air Riders babey. It’s the kinda gaming experience I’ve been craving for years without realising. Some Ball x Pit, Powerwash Simulator and Dragon Quest III Hd2D in between.
Happy gaming all!

Incredibly late to the party but I got this last weekend and it’s easily my GOTY. I love everything about it. MKW won’t be getting any playtime for the foreseeable.
