What's all this racket about?

Well, I made a Kris Deltarune Mii and gave my island the most cursed name I could think of.

Oh boy here's something else to add to my backlog...

They had better keep Kirby out of this! His lore is too precious.

@CaleBoi25 Thanks! When I had the idea for the reference I genuinely dropped what I was doing to go to my computer to post it.

I just got into the show last month and I'd be happy to yap about it with you (probably in the TV forum). Just tag me and I'll be there soon enough!

Out of the NS2E DLCs, Star-Crossed World definitely had the best OST by a mile. Naturally, the KatFL OST was dropped one week before the DLC and SCW is still not on the service.

Glad we have the Ludwig theme though!

It's a good thing that Nintendo is still providing support for the people who were insane enough to pay $100 for an alarm clock.

Man, this is weird. The only thing weirder FIFA could do would be to create their own version of the Nobel Peace Prize and give it to a--- oh what's that? Oh, my bad. They did.

It has Rowlet. Perfection.

I had already started buying more games digitally last year, but this will probably make me trend towards digital a lot more.

"We might not have the finer details on the game's launch plans just yet"

Yes we do

The art style is quite pleasing.

@Anti-Matter I can sometimes get into an artistic game (for instance, I love Planet Zoo on Steam), and I'm sure I'd have some fun with Tomodachi, I just think I'd probably drop it before I really got my money's worth. I have plenty of other games to play, anyhow.

The floor texture bugs me.

I'll try this out, though I don't expect to buy the full version, as I typically get bored of cozy/sim games after not too long.

The trailer was nice, but you know, I just feel like it's missing something, or...maybe someone.

I loved Wonder, but (especially with HB Mode) it already looks quite flawless in 1080p60, and even before it came to my attention that the mini-games were dull, I found it hard to believe that I would get much use out of any of them. I just see no reason to bite here.

(shoves random bystander to the ground)

OH MY GOD! IT'S HUGH MORRIS! I LOVE YOU HUGH MORRIS!!!

Not as big of a deal now that we have Handheld Boost, but still nice.

We are now witnessing the Great Political Comments Purge of 2026.

I'll never forgive Epic Games for making Fall Guys terrible. This just adds to the pile of their sins.

I hope all the laid-off workers can find better employment soon.

Fine if Nintendo doesn't give us a discount or free gift, but any sort of price hike is unacceptable, especially after suing the US government.

Also, Trump can go to the Distortion World IYKWIM.

Now I don't know all that much of Crimson Desert, but all that I have seen of it so far seems to be noticeable lacking in both 'Crimson' and 'Desert'.

This is going to sound bad, but, as God, can I...

psychologically torture my Miis and give them their own personal Hells expressly designed to exploit their fears.

I swear if I hear "Nintendo isn't putting out quality games! Where's Mario and Zelda!?!" one more time...

I have no interest in competitive, large in part due to the fact that my least favorite Pokemon, Incineroar, is one of the most essential Pokemon in the meta as I understand it, so I'll be passing on this one.

Well, I can say for certain that I won't ever BE a new player then.

"Ok, you know how I'm self conscious about the face, right? Let's keep it zoomed out a bit. That way we capture some of those monsters too."

"uh-huh, got it...shoot how do I do this...er maybe she won't notice."

I'm glad KRtDL DX is fixed, as I want to get to that sometime. Handheld boost is bound to like nice with it.

End Update or Draw 25

@-wc- Since people's Switches can have some NSO-active accounts and some NSO-inactive accounts, I think it's more likely that the C-Button will just continue to ask "Which User Wants to Use GameChat", but after you select a non-subscribing user then yeah, it'll ask you to go to the eShop, so technically not a direct-to-eShop button.

In any case you can just remap the C-Button to be a second screenshot button or anything else you want it to be if you aren't on NSO or don't want to use GameChat, so it's no big deal. The button is just a convenience for people who do use the feature, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Anyone else just like to press the C-button as a fidget? I've never used GameChat but I just like to press the button for the sound it makes.

This weekend, I'll be playing:

Hollow Knight: Silksong
Currently exploring Act III. I want to defeat Garmond and finish finding 12 void masses before progressing the main plot.

Pokémon LeafGreen Version
Currently going through the Team Rocket base in Celadon City.

Mario Kart World and Kirby Air Riders
As per usual, I may do a few races and city trials here and there.

Pay 99 cents to respawn in Elden Ring.

Ok someone has to say it.

The "Winds" part of the overworld doesn't mean the sky, it just means everywhere that isn't underwater. Air is a volume just like water. That's not to say there couldn't be sky islands, but Winds doesn't need those to justify their title.

(This isn't based on leaks BTW, I don't look at those)

I actually sort of liked how the profile select was in-game before.

I can't wait for the new chapter. I've got a strong feeling that this will dethrone Pokemon Ultra Moon to be my favorite game once all the chapters are out, or potentially even earlier.

@Tempestryke There are 7 chapters on the chapter select screen, though it's always possible that there is a fake-out 8th chapter.

That said, judging by dialogue from a certain character, and how the general progression of the story seems going, I suspect that Chapter 6 will be the game's normal ending, with Chapter 7 being the True/secret ending, likely only obtainable by collecting all of the ShadowCrystals.

@Zeeba The update made it so that on Switch 2, the games would run at 4K60 docked or 1080p60 handheld and doubled the amount of Pokemon which could be spawned at any one time. Because of this, Handheld Boost shouldn't change anything (same as any other game which got a free Switch 2 patch previously or a Switch 2 Edition).

lol I could've used that Last Judge explosion nerf a few weeks ago

Any reference to Alola is enough to make me happy as a Cloyster.

@Zeeba Pokemon Violet got a free Switch 2 update last June which gave enhanced the resolution and framerate. Handheld Boost shouldn't change anything with it unless you've gone out of your way to make sure Violet didn't update.

I'm realizing that the acronym of this game's title is XD GoD which just sounds like a 12-year old's Fortnite gamertag.

I'm not a coffee guy, so I'll just stick with my Tapu Cocoa.

Noted
I have given my friends silly nicknames

So far, I tried out Thousand-Year Door, Pokemon Legends Arceus, Breath of the Wild (not upgraded), Pokemon Shield, Super Mario Bros. Wonder, Wavetale, Cuphead, and Smash Ultimate. Of these, Wonder and BOTW got the most noticeable improvements for me, though the rest of these games also are now looking much better (except Cuphead, which never looked very crunchy to begin with and looks indistinguishable from pre-Handheld Boost).

This update will make me want to revisit a bunch of my Switch games.

The songs are good but none really fit into any of my playlists except for Vs. Ridley in the Hype playlist.

Thanks to this, I'm much less worried about certain games not getting Switch 2 patches. Great update!
