@GetontheStiix yeah I sometimes have this problem with Nintendo Life articles as well, they name it "this game is delayed on Switch 1/2!" making it sound like they're the only affected platforms when it's delayed in general.

Like what is the point of even naming platforms in the header, just say the game is delayed, we're on Nintendo Life - we know what platforms you're reporting about lol

Yeah it can't be Reunion because Crisis Core remakester is already called "Reunion" and I don't think they wanna overuse that word to death. Out of all words presented I feel like Return feels the most appropriate.

@HalfAWorldAway not much, they allow you to save and load outfits, button presets and colors to them and then share it or use it when you go over to your friends house to play on their system for example.

@pawlslax it really is glorious 🤩

Capcom got Kenny Omega to do mocap for Alex' moves which is really dope.

@WiltonRoots speaking of that, this article also forgets to mention that Switch 2 was the best selling hardware in terms of both units and revenue for the month of December and it's about 50% ahead of the Switch 1 in the same timespan.

So much for the "5 year old PS5 is outselling the Switch 2!!!!!!111!!11!" comments lol

Remember all the doomposting and "stocks dropping" just because of a single random report from Chris Dring a couple of weeks ago? Sure feels silly now.

@jolteon23 hmmmm kinda yeah? All Yakuza games are so good that it's hard to not recommend playing the previous entries, especially since you see characters grow with each game. And don't forget Yakuza 0 as well lol

"Adjustments have been made to make the game more comfortable to play"

Does that mean it became more.....stable?

I trust Hamaguchi-San, he was a programmer before becoming FF7 Trilogy Director so he knows what he's talking about.

Sands of Time revival getting axed is legit depressing.....

Yes Game Key Card. Yes purchase.

Pre-ordered, pre-loaded, ready and waiting!

Hopefully this is true because Code Veronica needs a remake the most unlike RE5 that people keep asking about for some reason. I love 5 but it still looks and plays great, it doesn't really need a remake.

@atepa it means "tender loving care"

This game is legit amazing, its like top 3 best games of the year for me. If you're even a little bit interested in it then try the free demo people, I knew this game was a banger just from the opening hour.

It sure looks like one of the games of all time.

Great preview but I always find it extremely lame whenever Nintendo Life is invited for these preview events and the publisher doesn't provide a Nintendo build to preview, it's always a PS5 build.

At least the demo was just confirmed to be coming in the near future, here's hoping it's Switch 2 bound as well 🤞

@LazyDaisy that content was more than likely done by a smaller team tho, it didn't need the whole Sonic Team for it as it was already reusing most of the assets and it was a relatively small addition compared to the what the main game provides.

Leon's going full James Bond for this one, he got a fancy car and a watch lol

Leon's gameplay looks incredible, the dynamic melee and his handling of weapons looks so damn fun and badass while Grace with RE2 style gameplay looked awesome as well!

This is everything I wanted this game to be and i'm all in, February can't come soon enough!!!! 🙌

@MirrorFate2 is it too soon tho? Sonic Frontiers came out 4 years ago.

Damn she looks great, that's Lara Croft right there.

The footage actually shows the game running at well above 30fps during multiple intervals (0:48-0:58 for example).

I've seen some people who already have early access to the game report that it provides you with a toggle to lock the framerate to 30fps or to unlock it.

Always loved this about Yakuza, inside each game is just a classic game collection (especially for Saturn and Dreamcast era games which Sega refuses to rerelease!)

@Metaphor1987 I love me some useless anecdotal trivia from a rando who lives in bumf&ck nowhere.

Very nice, my most played games this year are:

1. Cyberpunk 2077
2. Donkey Kong Bananza
3. Dark Souls Remastered
4. Mario Kart World
5. Street Fighter 6

Overall: 612 hours this year

@KevinP it can't be classified as that because what I say comes from objective facts or is cutting through lame talking points like "herpa derpa wheelchair basketball game bad xd".

"You act like it's mindblowing that someone would be willing to pay $80 for a full game on cartridge."

Considering that you're literally complaining in this same thread about Kirby Air Riders and MK World being 70$-80$ games, both of which are on full carts that cost 16$ each to produce mind you, in a conversation with @TerribleTerabytes just above ours - I will consider this a bad faith argument.

@AllBLK "Twist the facts however you want but the truth is the truth"

The irony here is palpable.

"It's not selling as much as Nintendo wants, period."

Show me where Nintendo ever said that. Is it in those "secret stock holder documents" where they complain about console sales too? lmao

@KevinP no, I just don't like people lying and saying stupid, clueless BS

@AllBLK How about having some critical thinking skills when discussing sales and stock then? Last time we checked, the factual number data says that the console is still selling well and still the fastest selling console hardware. "Holiday is 20-30% down in comparison to the best selling system of all time 8 years ago" doesn't equal sales are bad genius.

@Serpenterror holy macaroni, talk about being a jaded edgelord.

1. Categorically wrong, Switch 2 is a portable machine and it's priced more than appropriately for what it provides. If you expected a portable PS5 at 450$ if not less then you're just clueless about tech, Xbox Rog Ally X can't reach PS5 and it's priced at 1000$+. Steam Deck can barely hold it's own store when it's docked to output at 4k, not to mention how games on Switch 2 overall look better 9/10 times.

2. They're charging the same for their games as every other publisher in the industry. Nintendo isn't gonna lowball their games just because you think "cartoony game must cost less".

3. Yeah and that generally accepted storage is a hinderance to game performance and led to games loading up to 2 minutes on Switch 1. That's like complaining that PS5 "forced people to switch to SSDs" instead of using ancient hard drives.

4. If every game was on a "real cartridge" they would be 80$-90$ per game, would you want that instead? Because 3rd parties aren't gonna be eating up that 16$ per cartridge just for your good will lol

5. Non sequitur.

6. Has nothing to do with anything.

7. Who cares, move on.

8. Overwhelming majority of Switch 2 upgrades are free.

9. What's the point of lying? Switch 2 has MK World, DK Bananza, Kirby Air Riders and Hyrule Warriors, how does that translate to "only Donkey Kong"? You need 25 brand new games in the first 6 months of the console release? Also it wasn't changed "at the last minute", they changed platforms for development 4+ years ago. Again, just more clueless yapping.

10. You mean just like every single other platform that bricks/bans your console if you try to screw with it?

11. Just because Metroid Prime 4 and Pokemon ZA are Switch 1 games doesn't mean they're not new games. Not to mention you get a MUCH superior experience for both of those on Switch 2.

12. You wanted them to give discounts in November for a platform that came out only 4 months ago? lol what?

13. Sure but then people complain that amiibo doesn't do anything substantial and yet in the same breath lose their minds because a few MP3s get locked to it lol

14. Ngl the only trash here is whenever I see clueless yapping in Nintendo Life comment sections like yours. Calling Switch 2 "overpriced weak hardware" meanwhile i'm POSITIVE you didn't have that same energy when Switch 1 launched in 2017 for the same price as PS4/Xbox One while being MUCH LESS capable hardware.

Why are half the comments talking about console sales in a thread about stock? Also acting as if it's selling Wii U numbers and no one's buying it anymore, can y'all get real lmao

@AllBLK 16 out of 22 first party Nintendo games got completely free Switch 2 upgrades, 18 out of 22 if you have NSO Expansion Pack, how is that not "showing good will to the consumers"?

@progx I think the best shot we have at those games re-releasing is if Nintendo will add them to Gamecube NSO so hopefully one day.

Fingers crossed we get a Demo shadowdrop 🤞

NateTheHate confirmed on Twitter that it's because of Hasbro/Wizards of the Coast and that they have a bad relationship with Larian now.

God damn it.

It just looks like Switch 1 now taking out any individuality from Switch 2s sleek design.

@caseyyy here ya go:
https://x.com/i/status/2009642424872976892

Models from these photoshoots already came out and said its not AI. People make up boogeyman's out of fingers now.

@DashKappei he's just an NPC in World Tour mode and they based him more on his classic Final Fight look as opposed to 3 redesign, obviously he's not gonna be as detailed and overdesigned as the playable characters. It's not that deep.

Damn, poor Andore lol

When they said early 2026 I kinda expected January-maybe February, not the end of March.

Call of Duty: The Good Games Collection (OG Modern Warfare 1-2-3, World at War and Black Ops 1-2)

Switch 2 sells slightly less in its first holiday compared to the best selling console of all time during it's first holiday somehow equals Nintendoomed.

I need to finish the other 25 Legend of Heroes games before getting to this one lol

@DTfearTheBEARD is your entire existence on this website just announcing to everyone that you're gonna play games everywhere but Switch 2?

We get it, you don't like keycards meanwhile hypocritically buying everything on Steam Deck instead, you dont need to announce it under every single news article.

I care more about the actual game than plastic so i'll be buying the much superior Switch 2 version.
