Probably only game breaking for competitive players. I would not even have noticed... I do not even know how to use this to my advantage now that it has been pointed out to me.
My question is if peer to peer gets any better when playing on switch 2?
They should have sold the app for $10, and just upgrade the game for free as the other ones.
To me the story and voice acting is so bad in this game that i could not care less for more memories (And Zelda should be bad ass, but she does not sound the part at all, worst thing in the game imo. So I do not want to listen any more to her if I can avoid it )
But it's still my favorite game of all time so if I'm paying for any upgrade I guess it's this one... but this will hurt.
Found a physical copy of Violet + DLC on a sale a year or so ago. My daughter was not impressed of it after playing Arceus first. But I guess now is the time for me to give it a go, seems to be a divisive game.
@Ratmasterd21 Ha ha, can't say you're not trying to explain, much appreciated!
My main problem is that Nintendo is not trying half a much, hardly at all :/
However, I would still be much surprised (and disappointed) if the switch 2 can not render e.g. a minecraft world faster than the switch 1. Switch 1 is not keeping up due to lack of power, and you can sometimes walk faster than it can render. So I can't even imagine how they could make the switch 2 mirror the performance of the switch 1 in a case like that, even if they tried...
And I'm not going to buy a single one of them (a part from MKW that is packed in). This is such a weak launch. Old switch games better run notably better on this thing... but considering Nintendos hardly wants to talk about it they probably don't...
@JumpingJackson I know, I know... and I've been back and forth about it... but we need a second switch, so it was buying an oled or a switch 2. Then I've got an invite ...and thought what the hell. But in short, I have never been this hesitant buying a Nintendo console :/
@WiltonRoots
Probably true, but Nintendo still went through the trouble of making this list, they could just as well have done it properly.
Most normal people will not read it, the ones who does are the ones who cares.
How can Nintendo fail to communicate these simple things over and over again. It would be so simple for them to do it right. I'm starting to think it's on purpose...
No! Could possibly be useful in Splatoon... but might just as well be terrible depending on who it turns out you have actually become friends with in that game... I might give it a try... my expectations are tempered.
I did not pay full price for any switch 1 game. Much thanks to staying a few years behind and waiting for mar10 day, black Friday etc. Also to some extent thanks to game vouchers when "needing" a new game.
I will probably pay full price for Splatoon 4 since I spent 1000+ h in Splatoon 3 Maybe for a new 3d Zelda?
But I have quite a few backlog games that will be enhanced on switch 2, so I'm good for a while.
Needed a second switch for the kids, so they get my current and I get the new one...
My question is why they are using a picture of a switch 2 with almost no bezels?
I too would have liked it to look like that, but why are they using "fan art"?

@BTB20
It was obviously too cheap.
Re: Japanese Charts: Switch 2 Crushes PS2 To Become Fastest-Selling Console Ever
@Don
It remains to be seen how well MKW is selling for $80.
Most sales so far is probably from bundle sales.
Re: Japanese Charts: Switch 2 Crushes PS2 To Become Fastest-Selling Console Ever
No surprise, they basically gave the switch 2 away in Japan.
Re: Feature: 11 Games With 'Secret' Performance Bumps You Should Revisit On Switch 2
I've heard that Minecraft is almost playable.

Re: Splatoon Raiders, A New Splatoon Spin-Off, Is Confirmed For Switch 2
First switch 2 news that actually got me a bit excited!
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For The Nintendo Switch 2
Apart from the party game MKW, I have nothing new interesting to play apart from my switch 1 backlog.
Since I'm playing 100% docked, the over all experience is as if the switch got a snappier software update.
Re: Poll: Switch 2 Battery Reportedly Lasting Under Two Hours With Mario Kart - How Is Yours Holding Up?
Nice to pay top dollar for a down grade.
I play 100% docked so I do not care too much about the screen and battery, but still disappointing to hear.
Re: Random: Splatoon 3 Squid Roll Bug Reportedly Surfaces On Switch 2
Probably only game breaking for competitive players.

Re: Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom And Link's Awakening Are Improved On Switch 2, But It's Not Perfect
That's disappointing!
I bought the thing to have this solved.
Re: Site News: We've Got A Switch 2
DHL is saying Monday for me :/
Re: Video: Do You Even Need A Pro Controller For The Switch 2?
Needed a additional pro controller any way... and I expect the d-pad to work properly on this one.
Too expensive to buy two.
Re: Pokémon Scarlet And Violet Version 4.0.0 Is Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
Found a physical copy of Violet + DLC on a sale a year or so ago.
My daughter was not impressed of it after playing Arceus first.

Re: Poll: With One Week To Go, What Are Your Switch 2 Launch-Day Plans?
@PlatinumSeraph
Ha ha, yeah, that is me
It's getting old, but I can't be bother to change the post.
So you might see it for a while still, sorry!
Re: Poll: With One Week To Go, What Are Your Switch 2 Launch-Day Plans?
Whenever Nintendo manages to deliver my switch pro i will check out all my switch 1 games on it.
My daughter will probably play MKW.
Re: Pokémon Legends: Z-A's Switch 2 And Switch 1 Prices Have Been Revealed
Guess they did not want the same reception as MKW got with the $80 price.
Re: Nintendo Music Celebrates 10 Years Of Splatoon, Here's Every Song Included
How could they not make a 10th anniversary splatfest?
1 vs 2 vs 3.
I would have fought for 1 (3 is the best though)
Re: Nintendo Updates Switch 2 Backwards Compatibility List
On one hand it seems like Nintendo has been sitting on the switch 2 for a long time.
On the other hand this release feels rushed and unprepared.
It continues to be very confusing launch.
I just do not like being dependent on patches to be able to play my games.
Re: Rumour: A Nintendo Direct May Drop Around The Switch 2's Launch
Would be a good opportunity to present some switch 2 games that is actually worth buying.
At the very least say something about the switch 2 plans for Zelda, Mario, Splatoon, Animal Crossing, Pikmin...

Any way, we'll see in just a few weeks, take care
Re: 27 Upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 Games We're Excited For In 2025
@Ratmasterd21
It will take me 5 minutes to pop it in the switch 2 and figure out if it runs better.
They make zero effort to elaborate on how your switch one catalog will run on switch 2 (without upgrades)
It is important for most people that have lots of games.
Nintendo has control of the new hardware, they absolutely know what to expect in general from software running on it.
Re: 27 Upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 Games We're Excited For In 2025
@Ratmasterd21
So how is e.g. Minecraft going to preform on switch 2?
Re: 27 Upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 Games We're Excited For In 2025
And I'm not going to buy a single one of them (a part from MKW that is packed in).
This is such a weak launch.
Old switch games better run notably better on this thing... but considering Nintendos hardly wants to talk about it they probably don't...
Re: Nintendo Is Opening Its Fourth Store In Japan This Year
If they at least could sell more of this stuff on My Nintendo for us in Europe...
Re: Nintendo: "Appetite" For Mario Kart And Series' Accessibility Makes It Ideal For Switch 2's Launch
@JumpingJackson
I know, I know... and I've been back and forth about it... but we need a second switch, so it was buying an oled or a switch 2.
Then I've got an invite ...and thought what the hell.
But in short, I have never been this hesitant buying a Nintendo console :/
Re: Nintendo: "Appetite" For Mario Kart And Series' Accessibility Makes It Ideal For Switch 2's Launch
Switch 2 is the Switch Pro for me. I have no interest in the launch titles.
It's all about playing switch 1 games with better performance for me.

Re: Talking Point: Are You Ghosting Switch 1 To Save Yourself For Switch 2?
Not planning to ghost it after the release either.
We need two switches, that's why I plan to buy the switch 2.
Re: 12 Switch Games Are Getting Free Switch 2 Upgrades, Here's What You Can Expect
That was disappointing!
Re: Nintendo Switch 2 Final Tech Specs Have Been Confirmed
Absolutely fascinating how every aspect of this release seems to cause confusion.
Re: Random: 'New' Super Mario 64 Sound Effect Can Only Be Heard By Leaving The Game On...For 14 Months
Have you 100% the game without hearing it?
Re: Talking Point: Are You Excited At All For Switch 2 GameChat?
No!
Could possibly be useful in Splatoon... but might just as well be terrible depending on who it turns out you have actually become friends with in that game...
I might give it a try... my expectations are tempered.
Re: Opinion: Nintendo's Forgotten The Game With The Most 'Switch 2 Edition' Potential
I just do not see how playing with joycon- mouse for any period of time could be comfortable?
4 was a bit too bloated for me, I'd probably prefer to get the old games updated.

Re: Nintendo Expects To Sell 15 Million Switch 2 Consoles This Financial Year
Hardware sure, software maybe not so much.
Re: Former Rockstar Dev Throws Shade At Mario Kart World, Says New GTA Will Be Worth The Price
MKW for only $90 usd?
It's $103 usd where I live!
Re: Former Rockstar Dev Throws Shade At Mario Kart World, Says New GTA Will Be Worth The Price
Is this perhaps a AAAA game?
Re: Talking Point: With Prices Rising, Are Your Gaming Habits Changing?
I did not pay full price for any switch 1 game.
Much thanks to staying a few years behind and waiting for mar10 day, black Friday etc.
Also to some extent thanks to game vouchers when "needing" a new game.
I will probably pay full price for Splatoon 4 since I spent 1000+ h in Splatoon 3
Maybe for a new 3d Zelda?
But I have quite a few backlog games that will be enhanced on switch 2, so I'm good for a while.

I too would have liked it to look like that, but why are they using "fan art"?
Re: Rumour: Ubisoft Might Already Be Teasing More Switch 2 Games
At least they are known to put games on sale. So I might try something out when I can't afford the game I really want to play.
Re: Grand Theft Auto 6 Has Been Delayed And Will Now Launch In May 2026
Oh no, not one more year of people guessing what this game is going to cost...
Re: Switch Users Are Getting Error Codes After Updating To Version 20.0.0
What is going on at Nintendo these days?
Re: Talking Point: Will You Be Buying Any Game-Key Card Switch 2 Games?
I'm honestly only planning to buy Zelda and Splatoon given the prices.
Re: Xbox Is Raising The Price Of Consoles, Accessories, And Games Worldwide
They too want to sell less games!
Re: Talking Point: Which Nintendo Series Are You Most Excited To See Return On Switch 2?
Splatoon 4!
And a worthy successor to BOTW!
Other than that... feel free to surprise me!
Re: Switch 2's Dock Isn't Compatible With The Original Switch, According To Nintendo
That would have been too practical.
Pretty sure they could have solved it if they wanted to.
