I’m very dissatisfied. And it’s not Nintendo’s fault. I can’t understand why third party games released 2-3 months before the switch 2 did not receive any switch 2 updates yet. I wouldn’t mind paying $9.99 per game. But no option is bad. There are very important AAA games out there that run crazy bad on switch
No 4k/60fps, no physical, no upgrade path. They literally couldn’t do worse then this. It is almost anti customers. Obviously not buying this, not even on a sale.
@sixrings I am not ready to give up though. This is brand new hardware that is supposedly 10x more powerful than Switch 1. It also has advance tool such as DLLS that can vastly improve performance. Why are we ok with developers putting minimum effort and release games that are a marginal improvement over the switch 1, and then charge full price $70? At least we can provide negative feedback
Correction: 30fps docked and 40fps handled. I think playing handled is a pretty good experience overall. But docked is NOT. EAs could have used DLSS to achieve 40 or even 60fps easily. This is just lack of effort from EA and it's not acceptable. Nintendo made Nvidia DLSS available to developers intentionally, and EA ignoring the tools they have to make great game is frankly an insult
I never understood this setting. Basically you're undercutting your battery life from the start to 90%, instead of enjoying the full capacity and limiting yourself later.
@ElkinFencer10 agreed. but there is still a 10% of me that thinks that the PS5 being nearly 5 years old, Nintendo is doing the same thing they did in 2017, lagging too much behind a current generation that is on its way to become "past"generation. PS4 released in 2014 and Nintendo is releasing something as powerful as a PS4, but in 11 years later.
There are not an infinite number of mechanics, so it is expected some of them have been used before in other games. However Astro goes beyond that by beautifully integrating the dual sense capabilities in very innovative ways. Yes, overall Astro is a very Nintendoish game, but that’s a great thing for Sony and for us gamers, some relaxed, Arcadish and joyful gameplay to break away from the hyper realistic simulations that seem to prevail nowadays
Hard to resist. But I don’t like this strategy. Basically all of us had to buy it digitally to play it. Now we also have to pay full price again if you want it physical. They forced us to double dip
Here is my list: rainbow islands, platoon, Giana sister, hero, California games, goonies, bubble bobble, ghost and goblins, decathlon, ghostbusters, montezuma, dragon lair 2
Disappointed. What the switch needed the most was a performance boost. If not for 4K, at least to get 60 FPS. However, since it didn’t happen and I have a V1, I’ll trade it in and get the OLED for $200 (I assume I can trade mine for $150). I’ll get better battery, bigger and better screen and new joy cons
and that's why we have a backlog. and BTW I recently got stadia + backbone controller on my iPhone 12 and man what was I missing!! I can now play full 4k versions of AAA titles on my phone and pick up on my TV when I'm home. That's really a game changer.

Re: Dynasty Warriors: Origins Will Run At A "Fixed" 30fps On Switch 2
I don’t know man. Many developers seem to think 60fps is secondary. Let me tell you: it’s a must

Re: No Man's Sky 'Voyagers' Update Lets You Design And Build Your Own Spaceship
@The-Chosen-one got it, but it’s not the same build number as PS5, so cross save will not work?

Re: Review: NBA 2K26 (Switch 2) - Brilliant B-Ball Has A Disappointing Debut On Switch 2
@johnedwin ironically yes and it's from the same 2k: WWE 2k25 is 60fps on Switch 2 and looks awesome too. Plus Street Fighter 6

This is how I know your know what you are talking about. And I fully agree with the review

@DonkeyKongBigBoy that’s retrobowl (minus the license) Check. it out on switch, it’s awesome and it plays even better on switch 2

Re: More Switch 2 Estimated File Sizes Seemingly Revealed
It looks like 256gb internal storage will only fit 4-6 games. The storage limitation may be worse than the original switch 32gb

Re: No Man's Sky Has Been Secretly In The Works For Two Years, And There's More Info To Come
Any mention of cross saves? I think this is the way to go. I don’t mind buying the same games twice if I can keep my progress across platforms.
