I once heard they made him left handed in the original games because that works better with a small sprite.

I played it on PC years ago. But the subscription cost finally put me off of it.

Stable 30 > unstable 60 fps

Loved the demo of the game. So I can't wait ... does this mean we'll see an Indie World soon-ish?

It looks like something someone designed while high on a fever dream. Yeah, I'll stick to real Pokémon.

Sadly not on Apple Music

Not so sure. It's Ubisoft afterall. Half finished games, low quality and high performance demands.

I played it, didn't like it. If Star Fox comes to Switch 2, I hope it's not this game.

This looks really cool for a Splatoon game. I love the single player focus here. I am absolutely going to buy this day one

No Key-Card? Pre-order canceled.

@SurprisedRobinChu Here is the answer: all of them do so. (some more than others)

@rjejr Mini-HDMI is one of the weakest ports you can have. They break really easily. But Nintendo could indeed make a USB-C to HDMI adapter. But that won't cool down the console like the Switch 2 Dock does. And it would not secure the system. I don't think Nintendo would want to have to handle warranty claims because the Switch 2 broke because the exhaust holes were blocked. So Nintendo making something like this.. 0 chance of ever happening.

And on the wireless streaming. Ofocurse it could happen with a specialised dongle. But that would have THE SAME ISSUES, of the system overheating because of a blocked fan intake. On Wii U this wasn't an issue, since the GamePad did not have any processing of it's own. (so no real heat build-up) unlike the Switch and Switch 2.

Yeah.. I don't want my expensive Switch 2 te overheat. Also while travelling I play handheld. (when at home as well)

I will get this once it comes to the S2. Never played a Bond game before, so I can't wait.

@ToniK Ofcourse the game isn't optimised for your PC

@UpsideDownRowlet It's mostly because you can actually see what "makes it tick". Which is very adventurous, I think. I rember having a purple transparent GameBoy color when I was younger.

@Samalik The Wii U was actually a good console. Though it lacked in third party games, some of the first party games are some of the best games ported to Switch (2). (and some are sadly still missing)

@Lynox5 For the stickers you could try Lego support. They also replace stickers for sets.

They should've just made this a seperate €30 set. It would've sold out just as quickly.

@garfreek Actually it's not behind a paywall, it's behind a buy a "far more expensive set"-wall. I'd be happy if you could actually buy it. Luckily the build instructions has a part list so you CAN buy the parts and build one seperately.

The set can also be bought from scalpers on Bricklink for around €120-300.

@Dr_Rocanlover Sure do so. But I am just going to enjoy the games I want to play. No matter how they are released. And honestly most games I have on Switch 2 are downloads anyway.. and I recently got a 1TB MicroSDXC card... I am good.

@Dr_Rocanlover Cyberpunk is a different game though. With a different file size. Also I don't think they should've split up the base game and the DLC.. since that would've made the game even more expensive.

And the price, well that's up to the publisher. Not the developer.

@Dr_Rocanlover How would you fit a 75GB game on a 64GB card? Without quality loss.

Yeah.. with a 75GB download this was always going to be the case. Even if it wasn't labelled a GKC, they would just have to force you to download most of the game anyway.

Splatoon Raiders and Fire Emblem, both sound really cool in their own way Can't wait.

@SpaceboyScreams At the time of my post it was above 50%. And I have played it, true there are some bugs. But I don't think it's a bad game. It does exactly what it set out to do. And I do actually like that it makes it easier to play ranked matches.

So I gave it (for now) an 8/10. If they fix the most glaring issues within the first 3 months I might increase that to an 8.5.

@BigRed40 But I do wonder how many of those people actually played the game. Luckily the positives are largly outweighing the negatives.

Yeah, it's very clear that this game wasn't finished upon release. I do hope we'll see regular updates to it.

I do like the game though. I bought the starter pack, and that is enough for 99% of the players for this game. It does depend on you being able to win some online battles and if you have Pokémon Home. Without Home the game isn't that great.

I am currently giving it a 8/10. The game is playable and does what it is set out to do. However the bugs are making it a bit lower score. I will wait for 3 months until I give it a final score, usually enough time for this kind of game to be updated.

Meh.. I am a bit bored by the overload of pixel-art indie games.

I would love to see a proper remake of Spirit Tracks. I always felt the game was limited by the DS. Just make travel by train a bit more involved, improve the scenery when riding the train. And full 3D.

@Jappio Yeah, they said that there would be limited amount of Pokémon at lauch. So.. yeah.. that is exactly the case. I see them adding other Pokémon in coming battle seasons.

Bug fixing needs to be a priority though.

Pokémon 'fans' are unhappy? Well.. this is new.. that never happened before...

oh wait.

@SillyG Pokémon from Home 'visit' so you can send them back to Home. You can't send (other) Pokémon from Champions to Home. Also getting the starter pack gives you 80 Pokémon in the box. Sure it's not much, but that would just require you to only put Pokémon in your Box you want to use in your Battle Teams.

Adding 1000+ Pokémon is more like using it as a seperate Pokémon home.

Good another update without system slowing themes Thank you, Nintendo!

@BrazillianCara Sure some have single player tutorials. Or an entire single player campaign (Splatoon). But with Pokémon you absolutely already have single player versions (ie. the rpg games). To me games like Splatoon are actually 2 games in one. And then with a lot of effort become a very good game that does both. But a game that is purely focused on multiplayer and designed to give the best multiplayer experience you can have with Pokémon (let's hope so) , I am happy they don't waste time developing a half baked single player mode.

Also it's a free to start game. Those usually don't have purely single player campaigns. Sure I get wanting a different game, but then just wait until that game is made.

@BrazillianCara Oh no... a multiplayer game, desgined for multiplayer does not have any single player...

Yeah, this is quite normal.

Pokémon Champions this month... but nothing else.

Now we have heard multiple times that Nintendo could increase the price.

Without that happening.

This does start to look like a way to trick people in buying a Switch 2 sooner than they would otherwise.

99% of the commenters here:

Nintendo Switch (1) released with chat via Phone app.
Commenters: "Why isn't this on the console itself? So lame, Nintendo!!!"

Nintendo Switch 2 released with chat via console.
Commenters: "Why isn't this a PHONE app, Nintendo?!! So lame!!! Everyone has phones these days!"

Just Yoshi and the Mysterious Book for me next month. So it will be a slow month for me. I don't care about Tomodachi Life.

(I will also be getting Pokémon Champions)

People, I have seen something very awesome.

An early version of the Nintendo Switch 3D. It plays any Switch or Switch 2 game in full 8K240. It also plays Nintendo Switch 3D games, these games are designed like Nintendo 3DS games to be played in full stereoscopic 3D without need for glasses. For TV mode you need a 3D TV in order to use 3D.

(The Nintendo Switch 3D will work without 3D and works with 2D TVs as well. )

The launch game is The Legend of Zelda Breath of Fresh Wind. A new sequel to The Wind Waker, in which you can sail anywhere in a massive open Ocean with hundreds of Islands.

The System will launch next year on April 1st. And cost $1337 for the base model. You will need to buy RAM seperately.

@UpsideDownRowlet It's most likely because Legends Z-A changes Pokémon stats and moves in a different way than other games do. So conversion would be required there and that is just asking for issues.

I am happy Nintendo tried something new after MarioKart 8 Deluxe. Mario Kart World is an awesome game! I am happy they didn't just make a Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Deluxe.

@dragwhite If they are going to support this longer than a normal Pokémon game, then asking an optional subscription fee is actually not that weird.

So if you don't want exclusive clothing and don't mind 30 Pokémon box space this game is entirely free.

@Itsashame basically if it’s not a new 3D Mario they are going to complain. Very shallow overall. Luckily there is an ignore button. 😂

OoT is the weakest of the 3D Zelda games, but maybe a remake could improve it. But a new Star Fox would be great

No Mouse mode? Mickey is very unhappy about that.

Prices will go up for sure. Even for Nintendo. These are dark times, indeed.

Spoiler warning, guys! There are people who want to see the movie.

That looks worse than EA's Fifa games..
