@contractcooker Yes, but people tend to ruin names for everyone. Especially teenagers and kids who LOVE coming up with the stupidest of names just to be funny.

Fine by me. I never understand why gamers feel the need for such vulgarity in their games. It's Pokemon, rate E. Of course it was going to fly with Pokemon or Nintendo. XD

This is Sony. They've been butting head with Nintendo and Microsoft for years. The fact they have it running (wether it's running well or not) is probably just to see if they could. Whether we see the game being release is a low chance.

It's Pokemon. Makes sense.

I enjoy the Gen 3 remake of these game. Fixed many of the problems that Gen 1 had. No online play makes sense Pokémon Champions will be Pokémon's main way of battling online. Glad they will have Pokémon Home compatibility. ^^

Glad they made the game more Arcade then the last one. Much more fun and easier to get into for casual fans of such games. Plus, gives us scrubs a chance at actually winning in ranked matches. XD

8.5 for me.

Already got mine. If the price increase happens, it happens. Nothing you can do if all the RAM and PC components go up in price. It's either raise the console prices or raise the price of games. I'm personally fine with either as this is the economy we choose to deal with.

Not a big fan of the HP bars. To me, I see it as more clutter in a game with already too much chaos. XP

@Wewewi Ah, gotcha. Alright. Thank you for this info. ^^

@Wewewi oh really? My understanding was that Nvidia g-sync is hardware based and only works on Nvidia GPUs and monitors with a Nvidia Module. Meanwhile, AMD Freesync is software based because it can be used on anything.

@Haruki_NLI Ah okay. I wasn't sure if VRR was hardware or software based on the handheld. Thanks for the correction.

@carlos82 Maybe but VRR only works if the FPS can stay above 40FPS. If the game dips below 40, AMD free sync feature won't kick in.

Nvidia Gsync could do VRR that low but I don't think the Switch 2 uses hardware VRR but software VRR. (Though, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong here.)

@GoproGO Playstation and Xbox advertise themselves as media boxes. Nintendo Switch advertise themselves as gaming devices. While a media device is expect to have a streaming app, a gaming device is not. While it's a nice addition, it's not needed. My Phone, Chromebook, Smart TV, and/or PC can fill that role with ease. Let my gaming device be what it's for: gaming.

@Strawblaze Your right, the consumer has a choice when buying whatever they want. They can choose to buy a Nintendo Switch/2 to play games or a PC/Media/Laptop for internet and streaming purposes. I don't know about you, but I buy a Nintendo gaming device to play games, not stream TV shows.

@Serpenterror I wouldn't say dedicated console are going to dye out. For one, PCs are still VERY expensive and not exactly user friendly to those that just want to play games. Troubleshooting a PC alone is a nightmare.

With consoles solely being made just to play games, it makes them easier to use and less likely to have any problems. I've had maybe 1 tech issues with my Nintendo systems. Which compared tech issues being had every other day (I wish I was making this up) of a Windows PC, it's perfectly fine to have.

Not surprising. Streaming apps aren't much of a thing nor needed for the Switch line. Major people have a laptop, Chromebook, or smartphone for such things.

I would love to see this game for the Switch 2. It fit right at home.

@MoldyPasta Let them release raiders. It allow for the next story for Splatoon 4 to happen. ^^

@Joeynator3000 oh, WORLD. I thought you said Wild. Heha.

Still, same. The team that did world and doing wild is focusing WAY too much on graphics and realism. I like the action and arcade style gameplay of Rise. ^^

@Joeynator3000 The ones that made Wild is the "console" team. The ones that made Rise is the "handheld" team. Hence why the games feel different when you compare the two.

It is nice to play Rise on the Switch 2. The better performance is nice. ^^

Unless this comes with cross play to play with the other consoles, I don't have much interest in Wilds. I still prefer the other team that made Rise. Much more fun in my opinion. ^^

30 FPS isn't a deal breaker. It's nice to have 60 but if the game is good, 30 FPS is fine.

@Smithicus Monster Hunter Rise. Compare to the pervious games of this series, it's has faster gameplay and noob friendly. Definitely worth picking up if it's your first time playing Monster Hunter.

@Lizuka @Shade_Koopa True. Always best to take what these devs say with a grain of salt.

@Lizuka Unlikely as he did say in an interview, he wouldn't make a port or sequel of the game. Kid Icarus Uprising would be the last one of the series.

@NolandC Yes. Switch 2 is backwards compatible with most of Switch 1 peripherals. Things like Labo won't work due to the size.

Got this game a week ago. I wasn't aware it had FPS issues. I don't even notice the frame pacing issues. 30 FPS for an turned based RPG is fine in my book. Especially if the gameplay and style are great. ^^

Not a big Zelda Fans, but the Hyrule Warriors series is slowly turning me into one. XP

I'm glad I got the Switch 2 version. I prefer a smooth experience over a slideshow anytime.

It's Nintendo. It was either going to be a big success or a big flop. Given they are riding on the success of the Switch 1, it was going to do well. Price is irrelevant when it comes to gamers. They'll pay for the console and games no matter what. ^^

Very nice. I'm glad to see the outfits back in this game. X and Y had some of my favorite clothes in the Pokemon series. ^^

They can't win every lawsuit. They were bound to lose to this one eventually. Still, hilarious to watch. XD

@SpaceboyScreams Yet, many gamers are perfectly fine with how things are. A score of 70/80 out of 100 may seem terrible to some, yet it still a passing grade. You call it being naive. I call it be a realist and accepting things at face value.

Could the game use some improvements? Yes. But you can say that about ANYTHING, not just video games. Sadly, we humans are idiots and will pay outrages sums for even the lowest common denominator. It's how our brains work.

If being "smart" means being miserable and complaining about every little thing in a video game, I'll continue to be an "idiot" and be happy. ^^

@PinderSchloss Pokemon has always been a 2nd party company. You'll have to take your complaints up with GameFreak as they are developers, not Nintendo.

Eitherway, it's subjective what you find mediocre. Yes, no game is perfect, but Legends is not bad game. But what do I know. I like to play video games for fun, not critic them. XP

Huh, guess I'm lucky. I haven't ran into any of these issues. I'm able to get more boxes and most of my side missions are complete. ^^

I'm still working on the Hyrule Warriors DE. I still want to get the HW Calamity as well. I have a Switch 2. I heard Calamity runs well on it and HW DE runs great on the new hardware.

I'm looking forward to more Hyrule Warriors series.

@Cheez Then don't buy it. The majority of gamers will buy the game cause they want it and can afford it. They also understand that Video Gaming is a luxury. It's going to be pricey, whether you like it or not. If you can't afford it, then you in the wrong hobby.

@cylemmulo Games can have low effort and still be fun. It's subjective. Who says a big company like Pokemon can't do indie level quality? We ALL know the haters would do a 180 and praise the title if this was done by an indie dev.

@Serpenterror Because we never rarely see the otherwise of the corporate world. Most likely, they are being pushed by the shareholders to release this game on the schedule they agreed too. After all, a delay in release is a lose of money for them.

Stupid, yes, but devs are always at the whims of whoever signs their checks.

Kudos! Nice to see Legends: Z-A doing well. Even if it's just for the Legends series, I would like to see this real time combat system done more often in Pokémon games. ^^

@axelhander Still be wary. I can only image who the would get to dub Pokémon games if it suddenly became a thing.

Be careful what you wish for. If we get VA for a Pokémon game, I have feeling the dubbed would be VERY bad...

If it was a special edition Switch 2, sure. But I'll pass and wait for those limited edition ones to come out. They'll arrive eventually. XP

Really? Splatoon 2? Many of us are ready for Splatoon 4! XD

@Antraxx777 Never owned a Sega system. Plus, not the best example. They no longer make consoles due to losing to Nintendo. If I recall correctly, Sega had the stronger system yet still lost. The lesson I'm seeing here is focus more on the games than the power of the system. ^^

@Ultimapunch He wouldn't I don't recall any launch titles for any console having an extensive library at the start. At least with the Switch 2, you can easily play your Switch 1 titles. That's a plus in my book. ^^

Wouldn't mind getting them later. I have way to many games to play on my back log. XP

Aww, no discount for the Hyrule Warriors games?

@nhSnork BL3 was on Switch? My mistake. Still, the ports of the game for Switch still feel rather sub par. I would LOVE to see a Switch 2 performance upgrade for those games to include 60 FPS. Sadly, low chance of that happening due to them being WAY older games.

@The-Chosen-one Yes. Even the ports of the older borderlands game for Switch 1 have split screen co-op. BL 3 skipped switch, but you can the inferior ports of 1,2, and presequel.

They aren't bad game, but they fun better on non-switch hardware. 3rd Party devs have no idea how to optimize for Nintendo consoles.

Nice. I'm happy with 60FPS. Plus, I can actually use Gyro Aiming. Love it in Splatoon 3, handy in Fortnite, should be handy in apex as well. XP
