Best Buy ended up messing up my pre-order for Pokemon Legends ZA so I ended using my last voucher on it and bought the upgrade pass.

Yeah I'm not rushing through the story for ranked online FOMO rewards.

That said, I played half a dozen matches and was able to make it to Rank T. Megas definitely have an advantage but you can get a few knockouts and possibly even win a match or two with the right pokemon and move setups even if you haven't unlocked mega evolving yet.

I was using pokemon around lvl 20-25 but everything gets scaled to lvl 50.

Hope this is a good upgrade for those that play.

Really wish we were seeing these kind of Switch 2 updates for Switch 1 games more frequently.

This is awesome for those who haven't played the game. I had a great time with Vengeance on Switch 1.

That said, Atlus can allow the game to have a NSO trial but they can't give us a simple update to max out resolution to 1080p on Switch 2? (There's also the fact that Switch is only platform that didn't get a demo for the game post release. =/)

I have the Switch 2 edition pre-ordered at Best Buy and I took Thursday off from work. Looking forward to it.

Yeah, I'll stick with Metroid.

If I buy anything Ubisoft related in the near future, it will be the SW Outlaws port.

Just realized that this game comes out in exactly one month but it feels like we don't know that much about it.

So it sounds like it would have been possible but they didn’t want to put in the work.

Personally, I’m happy with having P3R on Switch 2 at least but now I wonder if they’ll bother to release P4R and future titles on the system. =/

@CaleBoi25 If you don't mind me asking, what are the issues both games share?

Just realized I forgot to play this game lol. Guess I’ll get to that soon.

It does look good.

I am curious as to how RE7 and RE Village will run as well. Shame they couldn't have had those two ports out in time for the holidays.

I watch a lot of Nintendo Life's video reviews and the ones Zion adapted were always fun.

Wishing him the best of luck on future endeavors!

Thanks for the review!

Thankfully, I wasn't planning on playing this day one as Best Buy really messed up my pre-order and won't have it available until next Tuesday.

I am looking forward to playing this. Hopefully this and Ys Nordics are a good sign of more optimized Switch 1/2 releases from Falcom in the future.

@AmplifyMJ So glad I am not the only one lol.

Idk be that guy…..but I’m wondering how Dragami Games got a dev kit after all those rumors about the difficulty getting one.

Tbh, the improvements don’t look that great from the comparison video. That said, I guess I’ll take whatever I can get since I already own the Switch 1 version. (Still think performance is way worse than it should be)

Why are you like this SE?

Honestly just baffled that DK got DLC before MKW did.

@BaldB3lper78 Yeah some of these early Switch 2 ports are reminding me of early Switch 1 ports where optimization seemed to be non-existent. Hopefully it gets better.

Yep, it looks like I will play this for the first time on Switch 2.

Thanks for the review!

With the exception of the main character, I actually like the look of these character designs.

Shame that Kickstarter has barely any support so far.

Very good drop. FEA has excellent music.

Remake when? =p

Beta was fun. I mostly played the Switch 1 version on Switch 2 and a little bit of the PC version. It reminded me of everything I liked from Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed.

I'm gonna wait for the Switch 2 version of the game.

Glorious stability!

Kazutaka Kodaka, the absolute madman. Release a 100+ hour strategy adventure game and then release another 50+ adventure game a few months later.

@Sambuc The PSVita ports are how I got into the series. I still remember how Totori Plus was just shadow dropped onto the PSN lol.

Out of all those releases, I liked Atelier Meruru the most personally.

Shame we aren't getting any Switch 2 patches for Yumia and Resleriana.

Annoyed that it took this long for Nintendo and Gungho to get the Switch demo out but the little bit I played sold me.

Probably a pipe dream at this point but I’d like to see them add Surge from the IDW comic series.

Yeah this blows for consumers. The amount of third party games that haven't gotten Switch 2 annoucements is honestly upsetting.

If true, I hope it's not just all Mario games. A bunch? Sure but not like 70% of the Direct lol.

I wonder if we will get an eShop demo ahead of release like with the first game.

Also, I am hoping we get some playable characters that aren't involved in the story. And by this, I mean playable TOTK Purah. Please.

FFXIV is probably one of the few games that I would not jump ship from PC to Switch for. Hopefully more people will get to enjoy it if the port materializes but I could not play this game in handheld mode even if performance was pristine.

Now FF16 and the FFVII Remake trilogy on the other hand...

@rjejr I actually didn't know ER had performance issues on consoles. Really do wonder why so many games struggle with optimization across the board these days. looks at MH Wilds

The character customization is a big improvement over the first game. Like huge.

Initial impressions of the gameplay and performance weren’t great but that’s partly due to how chaotic the first area is without giving you time to adjust to the controls.

Once I reached the second area, my opinion improved the more I played. It kind of reminds of God Eater but with mechs now.

Can we have Fallout instead? Like 3, 4 or New Vegas?

Huge announcement. Curious to see how it will run on the system. If it's decent, I may end up playing this.

Good for Batman fans.

Hopefully with the new leadership, DC will start branching out and make games for their other characters too. (Please...)

9/10

Excellent in-deph Direct. Day one purchase.

I just really hope Elfilin makes it into the roster.

I can understand no Switch 2 native version.

What I can't understand is no Switch 2 configuration for the game on the Switch 1 version. Do they seriously think Switch 2 owners won't buy the Switch 1 version? And we know Namco has dev kits so what is the issue??

Anyway, cool announcement regardless. I'll just buy the Switch 1 version to play on Switch 2.

@SalvorHardin This is an interesting perspective because it seems like everyone is always complaining about UE5….but then everyone keeps using it? lol.

@JR150 After all the money they made on DBZ games on Switch 1, Bandai would have been out of their mind to not put this game on a Switch system in some way.

Given the obvious difference in install bases and how little Switch 2 is benefiting, it feels like they prioritized getting a Switch 1 version playable and then made small adjustments for a Switch 2 version.

45 minutes?! Sakurai (as usual) must have cooked.

Glad to see this game sold well despite all the competition it had at release.

Comparing this game to Splatoon is easy but I find comparing it Foamstars to be funnier.

Xillia is a game I'd definitely play on Switch 1/2.

That said, I wonder if the boat has passed for a Switch 2 port of Arise.

@Whirlwound I'm not saying you are wrong but what's the precedent for the first point with Bandai Namco ports? Most of their ports that I am aware of have content parity with the other console versions.

Maybe this is a silly question but why are all the Switch and Switch 2 headsets they sell wired only? I might have been interested in a slightly more expensive version with bluetooth support.

So Ys X: Proud Nordics didn't even chart.

Yeah Falcom really should have prioritized some type of Switch 2 version or upgrade for Trails 1st Chapter instead.

Upgrade path. Also probably going to wait until I'm done with Bananza.

I didn't know this was a thing with Switch 1 but I've always tried to be careful with the temperature of my devices.

I am extra careful with Switch 2.
