Just watched the IGN preview. Basically.
Great Metroid prime stuff. Tick box.
Why did they and really why did they bother to add the other characters and the powers that are slow.
That sums it up, they probably have spoilt for some with the two silly additions.
And there is the open bike sections yet to be reviewed.
Not sure why developers feel the need to add what might be spoilt and needless stuff.
Game looked great on switch 2 docked at 4K native 60fps.

@Medic_alert
By the way reference my post about MP game score.
It’s the whole industry that has dropped quality and high scoring top end games, especially the big three. Look at COD today campaign, terrible. Ghost of Yotei mid 80s.
Really what has happened to the 90 plus games.
Well done DKB though.

Well thankfully the standard metriod stuff is there.
But are we going to see another Nintendo game that used it get MP remasted 94 on meta end up in the mid low to mid 80s.

If so it’s probably the second time since the switch 2 release they needed to do better with their big AAA games.

They should have used Jay from the in-betweeners instead 🤣

Take my money right now. That trailer suited me and what I wanted to know.

@dew12333
I totally get why you wish to play the game and enjoy.
I’m playing star wars outlaws on switch 2 and what an amazing port, surprises me every time I play.
Then again switch 2 uses Nividea which for me has always been superior to AMD in PS5 and series x.

Last gen

I think, a joke of an industry this generation

No no no, over on Push Square the gang say Nintendo are not competition.
When all along I say it’s a home console it’s competition. And of course they are and this proves it.

Thanks for the heads up.

It is not a game for me got 79 on meta.
I had a good look but could not be tempted, also I find it good to play something else that is not Nintendo characters sometimes.
So in instead I purchased, Star Wars outlaws for £34 after some research and so glad I did.

Just started star wars outlaws on switch 2.
I’m very impressed, all third party games should be like this on switch 2.
Playing docked on a 65” TV.
Now I will be honest my TV switch 2 channel is adjusted to perfection, for visual look and smooth motion and does help the switch 2.
It’s also got a new update that makes things better as well.

DKB going 100% and MKW going all 3 stars 150cc.

@Olliemar28
So glad we have 60fps.
On that note, as it’s all gone quiet.
Any news on the VRR docked up date.

So glad we have 60fps.
On that not as it’s all gone quiet.
Any new on the VRR docked up date.

@Sylamp
Cheers

On the fence with this, what I call sort of push and go kart racing game.
Really hoping for demo and if I click I will buy.
Any news on a demo for the UK.
It really could help with sales of the game.

@dskatter
I said on here when the switch 2 was released that they should have done an under the TV version that you mentioned for us docked players like me and you. And we probably would have saved £100.
We thinking sort of the same 🤣
Anyway not long for Metroid Prime 4. I will go for docked 60fps at 4K mode for me.

Hi all, please remember it’s only something as an optional extra I would have loved on my Nintendo switch 2 console.
My 60fps optional power dock.
It’s not an attack on Nintendo or anyone on here.
Just a beautiful dream of mine, to have the Nintendo AAA exclusive experience and the third party at 60fps with better quality all round when docked.

@dskatter
Third party developers do many things with many many devices.

@jsty3105
Yep bring it on, what a Nintendo console that would be.
Obviously as an optional extra only for us extreme nutters 🤣🤣🤣

@dskatter
I said as an optional extra not the basic model.
Why would I want the pro if I can have Nintendo exclusives on switch 2 with an optional more powerful dock for third party games at PS5 level roughly.

All on here saying about 60fps and the switch 2 is just a handheld. It has a dock. Nintendo could have engineered something with the dock to get to 60fps with more third party titles.
Maybe yes as an alternative more expensive option, say another £400 on top.
But I would have purchased definitely.

@jsty3105
It is just a thing i wish the switch 2 could do say with Star Wars outlaws. And potentially as the switch 2 has a dock maybe they could have engineered something. It would have made it the ultimate console.
Remember as this generation goes on and god forbid next generation, it will only get worse.
But extremely happy with the 60fps with those first party titles.

What’s Switch 2 docked mode resolution and frame rate please.

Nope it’s not that great. The main issue lack of 60fps. They should have juiced the dock mode somehow to push things further to 60fps.
That is my only complaint.
You come off playing a beautiful DKB, MKW or TOTK at a smooth none blurry panning around 60fps then bang third party 30fps. Not great.

I’m a fully paid up family plus got it all member.
It seems all ok for the price.

Congratulations Nintendo and an amazing start.
I think though for continued amazing results will really on Nintendo big AAA games.
When you look back at the switch sales peaks, not including the Covid era and Christmas the peaks occur during mainly the big AAA Nintendo releases.
I’m not sure if they can keep this up this generation. Games like Mario tennis and Yoshi are good fillers but not the big AAA Nintendo games that sell consoles.

After MP4 and into 2026 there is nothing announced that is big in house AAA, like Mario 3d game or Zelda etc.

Like most Nintendo products nowadays, over priced.

@jco83
Think you might be right, it was a while ago and I’m not getting any younger 🤣
Still a great price though for that game.

Dam shame like star wars it will probably be 30fps so around series s levels.

Shame even with some cut backs Nintendo did not push the switch 2 a little more design wise to make these games runs 60fps docked.
I think that was a missed opportunity.

Should have a been a bit more powerful when docked the to get these game to 60fps.

@JohnnyMind
I think overall it’s all a fair price really
Considering the cost of other items have gone up by lots.
Also let’s not forget back in the day when SF2 was £60.
To get a game like DKB for about £55 in 2025 with all this inflation etc is a really good deal.

@electrolite77
Well they got me as always on the early adopter front 🤣

@JohnnyMind
Some shops do go physical discounts for day one preorders. Even the big AAA games.
I think like TOTK you could get for about £37.99

I think the two Japanese companies Sony and Nintendo do sometimes do good discounts in the UK as well.

I think the original price is always a max price and they leave some leeway for discounts and deals later on.

Playing SMG2 on a Sony 65” QD OLED.
It does look a lot better and very sharp and clean and smooth as hell.

2 of Nintendos most highest score 3d platform games ever made, built within 3 years from one another. 97 on meta.

In October 2026 it’s NINE whole years since Odyssey. Game development is soooooo longggggg and slowwwwww nowadays.

Will be playing SMG 2 on switch 2 on Thursday release day.

Reading the reviews, goes to show these games are still the best there has almost ever been in still after all these years.

I’m just hoping Nintendo surpasses them with a new switch 2 Mario platform game, hopefully in 2026, 9 staggering years since odyssey.

SMG 2 downloaded and ready to go on Switch 2.

DKB and MKW
Preordering super Mario Galaxy 2.

Poor show. But not to worry I shall be playing super Mario Galaxy 2 4K at 60fps, simples.

@sixrings
We need games at 60fps minimum
So much smoother and less graphical blurr etc.
Just try TOTK with the switch 2 update etc.

Shame the switch 2 is great with Nintendo AAA MKW and DKB for 60fps.
But as soon as get near a generation game we are back to 30fps.

@Zeroo
After playing the demo, so far I agree with you.
MK8 deluxe was the best MK for me.
I have hardly touched the new MKW, took much much chaos.

What became a must have has now turned into a maybe. It had a very very low key video at the direct.
However they are selling special editions and amiibo so it must be ok 🤣

Ok so enjoyed Woolley world and crafted I got 100%.

Maybe I’m being daft but was there actually any enemies in this game?
Looked like a world environmental puzzle solving game only to me.

The only thing apart from the low reveal MP4 video, very concerning, that was any good in that terrible direct.
I guess at least we getting 4K docked on switch 2.
Game pass ultimate, still the best value in gaming by miles and across multiple devices.
The two Japanese companies looking more and more penny pinching every day.

@roboshort
Well won’t be long until 2pm UK time.
I will keep my expectations low and if Galaxy 2 remaster happens this year, will jump for joy.
If not and it’s just a bit of this and let then it would not surprise me as Nintendo as amazing as they can be, can also be a let down at times.

Anything less than a Mario Galaxy 2 port in HD full screen will be a let down for me on the Mario front and to release this year.

But I hope I’m wrong, I think they well mess around with maybe a lesser game or send out sticker packs and pencil cases instead 🤣

Apart from MKW and DKB my switch 2 is alone until Nintendo give me something else.
Of course MP4 should be this year.

My hopes big new AAA games from Nintendo studios for Switch 2.
After Metroid Prime 4, there is zero for me.

Well at least it’s back to my PS5 Pro for Ghost of Yotei and the new big third party AAA games coming up.

I could never own just a Nintendo console as great as their own big AAA studio games are.
There is just not enough of them, and of course any third party games are old or less compared to PS5 Pro or Series x.
