I'd love to have a pimmped up Gameboy. Monochrome, high contrast, high backlight screen and have people work around these limitations. Grandiose battery life (10+ hours) and pair it with some kind of "game dev studio" to create and export home brew games. Like that game studio thing on Switch. Boosts sales across the board and teaches people basic programming and gaming principles. Yay!

@Gerald "Get to the Choppah!"

Loved the concept. Used to bring my switch to a games convention in my capital and got like 70 hits in the evening! Nice!

To me, that's a gimick. Too weak for enthusiasts, too bulky and little battery power to remain relevant on the go. More power to PC gamers, but I think it's more viable to use a gaming PC instead and if you so wish do some kind of game-streaming to an external device.

I wish a Switch Pro is still coming. I'm perfectly fine with my Switch as is, but given the chance to have the games run a TAD BIT better at times, I'd take the opportunity. The Steam Deck still only has a (albeit great) integrated graphics chip and most games will not be fully optimized for that kind of form factor. I feel like the BEST reasons to own a PC are games that are played with mouse and keyboard. To this demographic the Steam Deck does very little imho.

That said, at the end of the day, WHO CARES. Get what you like. Simple as that.

@jump All a matter of perception. I liked that they talked about her for so long. She was a central piece of the plot (like you said) and it felt more "real" to me that she wasn't just forgotten when when the story progressed. Russel T Davis was more enjoyable for me than Moffat, even though Moffat had a few brilliant episodes but to me ran dry of creativity in his later days of writing for Who.

But I can't really blame him. If you're tasked with constantly putting out quality content to a Show that in reality has had almost EVERY storyline possible already due to it's nature, there's bound to be a few duds here and there.

@Classic603 I know what you mean and can relate. But this goes beyond that. Political themes have entered the realm of Dr. Who and unfortunately Whittaker isn't a very good actress. These two factors combined curbed the interest of many viewers. I've watched only 2 episodes out of order of Whittaker's Doctor and could barely watch it. It really took a nosedive since Tennant and Smith days.

The recent change in leadership and writers of course plays a huge role as well. And no I am not being political here, but it's perfectly fine to say "nope, don't like that product anymore for reasons X and Y."

With recent numbers indicating that Dr. Who is falling off an even deeper cliff, I wonder what the future for the series will hold. Rumor has it that the regeneration scene was filmed 2 times with greenface on, one female and one male because apparently they can't find anyone willing to step into what the recent writers and producers left behind. Watched and loved it up until Capaldi.

@JonComms Tennant is a big deal, yes

Truly remarkable, wonderful game. If you're looking at the frame rate while playing, you are doing it wrong.

Awful awful game in every conceivable way.

Hollywood is all obsessed about "color". So that's that coming their way. Who cares about any of this anyways?

This looks like very bad custscenes. I LOVE MH, but will give this a pass, and since it's on Netflix, I wouldn't watch it anyways.

@MajinSoul Yep, button layout made my head scratch. I fear it will be a very niche "PC master race" product. But hey, to each their own, I'd still prefer a proper Switch Pro though.

@Joriss Thought the same. Especially considering the battery life and overall clunkiness.

Honestly, I don't care, but that's just me, I'm just over having a Steam Library consisting of 1.000 Games I got during a sale but never got to play because the only incentive to get them was the cheap price to begin with.

Was hoping for a Pro with more power. I don't care for 4K, but would prefer a bit more eyecandy on certain titles and higher framerates. I'm perfectly happy with my 2nd gen LCD Switch.

Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate, Monster Hunter Stories 2 Demo, Monster Hunter Rise! YAY!

@JokerCK Do they mean,... the "spice"?

I lost interest in FPS games along while ago. Plenty more to discover that runs significantly better on Switch too.

@invictus4000 Thank you, I know, but not skin color, or am I missing something?

Wow, the demo is REALLY beefy, I love the visual style, the silly humor, that fat cat. It's even more enticing than RISE in some aspects. Love MH and this is just another milestone. Love the special moves, the monster collecting. Argh. And your avatars are SO CUTE. Love it, even though mine came out "too yellow" and I hope we can change skin color later on (as of now in the demo there's no option to do so).

Now that's nice. For plastic trash.

Love it. Love MH. Also got MHGU just for the archaic oldschool feel. Can't wait for Stories 2. Best series atm.

I wonder if that hype is real, that GBA and N64 might come onto NSO today. Honestly I'd much prefer having the virtual console back. This is all garbage. No incentive for Nintendo to put out "free games" the way it is. Just make us pay a fifth time for old games all over again. If the price is right, I won't mind.

Oh, and finally give us voicechat lobbies online. I mean come on, even XBOX had it back in the day...

Love MH. Love the world. Love tactical RPGs. Got it preordered. Will play through it and then pick up MH Generations ultimate, because I can't have enough MONSTERS!

What an argument. "The new game will be new. And also better." - Ok thanks!

Actually ancient sumerian stone tablets are richer in information than this. Going back to reading those.

Couldn't care less to be honest. Completely out of left field for me.

@Jayvir It's funny how the world is pushing for evermore bandwith, like that 5G rollout over here in Europe, and then when there's finally enough bandwith we cream it with streaming not only 4K video content all over the place but now games too. In a not too distant future the Internet will be LIGHTNING fast but FEEL like it's 1999 all over again.

At least I could start a new EverQuest toon then...

@anoyonmus I kinda knew that. Just was coming down hard from the pre-E3 NS-Pro hypetrain. Hope it's at least real and will come SOME TIME. I don't mind 4K, but I'd love to get a few more frames and a bit more shinyness here and there.

This was the best surprise-announcement ever. Loved it back in the day and can't wait to play it again.

Great for collectors. Not for me though. Would have loved Oracle of Seasons in the style of Link's Awakening. Too bad.

Always made me ***** my pants back in the day. Looking forward to creaming them once more!

It's either a cloud version or "PRO ENHANCED". Let's wait and see.

What the hell?
I appreciate it for people who enjoy it, but I can't grasp the concept behind it.

Looks nice, basically the same game over and over again, but hey, so is Mario etc. - why change what's good right? This will be a nice replacement for Persona 5. Can't wait.

Really really loved the first one. Touched me deeply. Will dip again.

D'uh!
Couldn't care less. Was hoping for a Hunter from Monster Hunter (I know, completely out of the blue, but so is this chap).

Looked great. Was never big into Metroid. This game will get a proper playthrough.

"It'll be a SUPER time!" - Super Nintendo Switch XL Pro confirmed.

Besides that, E3 stinks this year. Nintendo already "won" it.

I don't care one way or another, it's just E3. If I don't know it now, I'll know it tomorrow, or in a few days, or never. I don't mind!

@NeonPizza I DO get that. I had a short burst of "I want games to be hardcore". Played XCOM and Fire Emblem with perma death, tremendously enjoyed Dark Souls I and Bloodborne. But that was that. I also get really pissed in teambased games like Battlefield or COD when you have no chance against a good team when you're playing with randos, but you don't have the time or ambition to get into a group of players just for that one game.

Being grown up with all responsibilities and crap, I do enjoy the "mobility" and the vast array of "retro" games and remakes on the Switch. Sold my gaming PC years ago. Got rid of my PS4 years ago.

But yeah, I do "get" the hardcore gaming crowd! It's a great feeling of accomplishment beating that hard stage or enemy. But I am old. I want to relax!

Rise needs content or a "Questmaker".

@sikthvash I know what you mean, I clearly notice a difference in reaction times and memory (remembering combors or something like that is extremely difficult for me).

Im an oldschool gamer. Emphasis on old. I don't have time or interest anymore to spend countless hours in a game to "get gud". Right now I'm enjoying Monster Hunter Rise, have hardly any problems and am a beast with the Bow, quite formidable with the Hammer, but that's about it.

Back in the day, on NES for example, when games were really hard, I tried a few times, but if it was too hardcore, I quite and went out play outdoors. To me games are art and enjoyment, if they are not enjoyable anymore, I stop.

I also never was too keen on competitive games. Besides owning the arcades on MK1 and MK2 machines back in the day when you trained your immune system by using a grimy arcade-stick for hours and rubbing your eyes plenty of times, I usually gravitate more towards coop games or "building" games like Two Point Hospital. And I am fine with that. Gaming is a pastime and not a job or a grind for me.

Super Nintendo Switch Advance or bust!

Super Nintendo Switch.

@DeclanS98 I dont think that women in general feel "mistreatment" every day. Not in the western world at least. This is not Iran. Reacting to one's physical form is perfectly natural, this goes for both genders. I respect all human beings the same way, no matter if man or woman.

I'm not comparing women's issues to men. I say that the great solution for most woke filmmakers is to have a "male" role portrayed by a woman. So instead of showing a strong woman in her own rights, they show us a man, that happens to be a woman. If you look closely, you will see this. This is hypocritical and no fix for no problem at all and the reason why mos woke movies suck and are rejected by sane people.

You know that 60% of higher education in the western world is held by women right? You do know that most men in the entertainment industry nowadays are portrayed as the bumbling fool who needs a strong woman to fix things for him, right? Think Homer Simpson, think Peter Griffin, think that Jim Belushi Show, and most other sitcoms.

Do men complain? No. Because it's just escapism. It's fun. Same with women in videogames. I'm old and when I was a kid we were raised to stand above things that might insult or anger us. Both genders. I know plenty of women who are strong successful females, with a family, lovely kids and a career who dont give two toddler-farts about bikini-clad anime women with thick thighs. Why would they? They have "real" things to worry about.

Hey and I respect your opinion, but you know, ANY form of censorship leads down a dark path, as history tells us. Please be mindful of that. No one of us holds the one and only truth that's applicable to each and every individual in society.

@DeclanS98 Violent games don't promote murder. Cartoonish, overdrawn females don't objectify women. There's plenty of places for that fight to be had in the real world, video games and other forms of entertainment usually is not that place. Look at all the garbage woke movies that bomb at the box office. Showing women so strong they are basically men. What do these do for women rights in muslim countries for example. Also, a cartoon girl with huge hips is a problem, but women drooling over six-packed men in advertisement and movies is not? Neither is, really.

@anoyonmus Imagine it's 8K capable and retails for 600!
