@Kraven Not disdain; people just need to be reminded it's not set to cure cancer.

@Anti-Matter Yes, whenever you don't share someone's opinion, the best thing is to be outraged and tell them how wrong they are. How much time you spent on a game is also a very useful metric that should turn most people/situations around.

  • Feels like those are not the best; those are ALL the Switch 2 games.
  • Why is Namco allowed to clutter the store with its Arcade Classics
  • All those chibi-manga Japanese RPGs seem super generic and samish
  • Huuuuge recency bias towards Silksong and DK
  • Not sure the old Zeldas should be allowed on these lists or they will stay in the top 10 all throughout SW2's life.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Forsaken (N64)

Even back then, that wierd art with the fake Kate Winslet with the Milla Jovovitch wig was so bizarre I could not even be bothered to look at the back of the box.
I would have gave the Europe version at least a look-see.

Re: Super Mario Party Jamboree Updated For Switch 2 And Switch (Version 2.2.0)

Wewewi

@topsekret @Riku3456 You guys are mixing up the rendering resolution and output resolution.
On Switch 2, from the title screen, vanilla Jamboree always rendered at 1080p, but it used to output in a 2160p signal/container. Now it's straight up 1080p output.
If you select JAMBOREE TV, however - you get a 1440p render in a 2160p output, including the normal Jamboree games that can be played within it. It is complicated, yes. All because Nintendo wanted to maintain full version parity between vanilla Jamboree for Switch 1 and 2.
@Aventurier Yes, that is common to most tvs; it means while it may be available if forced, 1440p modes (60/120) are not exposed in the tv EDID.
However, games can still force it "in-game", if available at all. Mostly used to do 60 fps games in a 120 container in order to reduce latency atm; Street Fighter, Mona..; those games are not rendering at 120; it's just for latency.

"Sir, do you really want to replace the funny characters of original art with some random picture of a dude on a farm?"

"Yes; do that"

"But Sir, you do understand we're trying to sell this game to kids, right? Are you sure this is a good idea?"

"I was selling Atari to your father, young man; I know what I'm doing. But do put a cow front and center."

Re: Reminder: Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds 'Open Network Test' For Switch Is Now Live

Played on Switch 2 docked; so being a Switch 1 game, presentation is "up to" 1080p30; yuk.
Ground physics felt both sloppy and stiff; way off. Air travel was better. Items were lackluster at best. On the bright side, the portals à la Ratchet & Clank was pretty cool and seems like it could be more enjoyable than MKW connecting/highway paths.
Also, the story and upgrade systems should provide a lot more depth.
Hopefully they will have a Switch 2 demo at launch.

Re: My Nintendo Store Restocks Exclusive Kirby Reward (North America)

Wewewi

@KevinP I can understand the resentment; it's just funny to see someone jump on a post like this to express it.

The physical rewards available in North America really kinda are garbage grade; especially compared to what it used to be. Used my physical copy of Bananza as an opportunity to get free shipping on the Mario Tote Bag and the DK Bananza Napkin; pretty weak stuff.
