I was waiting for this hot potato to get posted, waiting for the edgelords to turn up, and they will...thing is, if people didn't brag and boast online all the time to try and appear cool and edgy (in the world of videogames of all things ), these things would have quietly existed under the radar.
@hendie100 doesn’t bother me in the slightest. When I’m done with it it’s just gonna be sitting on a shelf gathering dust like all the other games I’m done with. It’s just not that serious in my eyes. I was 90% digital on the OG Switch.
@AussieMcBucket I never worry about opinions from gamers, they could post an article saying Happy Wednesday and the comments would be full of people saying they preferred Tuesday and they’re not really looking forward to Thursday.
@JohnnyMind for people that don't use pro controllers and enjoy using the joycons, you'll see the colours all the time. This is for those people. Mine sit on the arm of my couch/on the coffee table loose all the time...
11 hours in and I’m enjoying it, basic field and sea battles I just stick on auto tactics to get them out of the way, it’s a cozy game so far! Too early to tell whether I prefer it to XI, the mechanics are very similar though.
Been playing a lot of Yakuza Kiwami recently, on chapter 8 and got my groove back after being rusty for a bit. Also another of my casual cruises through Mario Kart World, I still haven't done the 100-150cc cups...was hoping to pick up DQ7 but Amazon and Argos don't seem to have it in stock!
@iMahvel_ @Johnny44 It’s a 2025 account - expect nothing less really. Some people set up accounts to cry and wet the bed, hoping to dissuade people from buying a Switch 2. They’ve failed. But the fire still burns in their lives for some reason.
Quite a selection, outside of gaming circles most people don’t own every console and a gaming pc. For me as a Switch/Switch 2 only owner that was packed. I could easily own the other consoles or a PC but can’t be arsed as I prefer convenience.
Also it’s great to see how people aren’t leaving money on the table with the Switch 2. Capcom’s throwing everything at it.
Never played the previous versions before, streamlined or not, don't care, I'm getting it, I liked the demo. Looks like I will be getting my money's worth out of it.

@BLK_4EVER which multi billion corporation? Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft, Valve, Apple…there’s a few. 😀
Re: 13 Switch Emulators Hit By Latest Wave Of Nintendo Takedowns
I did say they would turn up lol…edgetastic.
Re: Nintendo Is Considering A Switch 2 Price Hike This Year, According To New Report
It's certainly a bubble that needs to burst...

Re: Forget The Talking Flower, This Is The Cutest Upcoming Mario Toy
@TrogdorTheBurninator yep I'm sure all the game developers that work at Nintendo dropped everything to make this toy.
Re: Forget The Talking Flower, This Is The Cutest Upcoming Mario Toy
I know what I'm getting my sis for her birthday now...
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (14th February)
One game: begins with a D and ends with a ragon Quest VII. Loving it, 25 hours in now and some of the twists and turns are insane.
Re: Japanese Charts: Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined Blows The Competition Out Of The Water
@IronMan30 Amerikurr…Fork yeah!
Re: Japanese Charts: Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined Blows The Competition Out Of The Water
@Kriandis there are some really funny moments in the game. I love how all the islands have different dialects.
Re: Reminder: Switch 2's New Joy-Con Set Is Out This Week
"I can't see the colours!!!!??!??!?!?! Pointless!!!!!!!"
Huge circular coloured rings around the analogue sticks are now invisible because reasons. Noted.
Re: Japanese Charts: Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined Blows The Competition Out Of The Water
@IronMan30 you mean Maaaattt Daaaaymen?
Re: Japanese Charts: Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined Blows The Competition Out Of The Water
@Duncanballs Oh man...it's what keeps me coming back to this place.
Re: Japanese Charts: Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined Blows The Competition Out Of The Water
@Duncanballs make it a Switch 2 exclusive (on GKC) just for the tears..
Re: Review: Mario Tennis Fever (Switch 2) - Slim For Singles, But An Addictive Core Gives It Online Legs
@KevinP nobody's stopping you from walking away if you're this disappointed. Don't let games wind you up like this.
Re: Japanese Charts: Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined Blows The Competition Out Of The Water
@traceman yep framerate means nothing when pulling strategies out from menus. It’s not exactly twitch response when 90% of the game is reading stuff.
Re: Japanese Charts: Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined Blows The Competition Out Of The Water
@Andgiles61 Wow! Just under 20 hours for me so far…planning to savour it. I like to explore every nook and cranny.
Re: Japanese Charts: Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined Blows The Competition Out Of The Water
@johnedwin reread my comment. The first sentence.
Re: Japanese Charts: Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined Blows The Competition Out Of The Water
@johnedwin Japan has never been about graphics and power. Plus there’s still zillions of Switch owners over there.

Re: Reminder: Switch 2's New Joy-Con Set Is Out This Week
@JohnnyMind yeah I went grey with the OG Switch…
Re: Yes, Elden Ring & The Duskbloods Are Definitely Still Coming To Switch 2 In 2026
@AussieMcBucket I never worry about opinions from gamers, they could post an article saying Happy Wednesday and the comments would be full of people saying they preferred Tuesday and they’re not really looking forward to Thursday.
Re: Japanese Charts: Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined Blows The Competition Out Of The Water
Great sales for a great game. Thoroughly enjoying it at the moment! I imagine it did great numbers digitally too.
Re: Reminder: Switch 2's New Joy-Con Set Is Out This Week
@JohnnyMind might just be me but I prefer the subtle accent colours, makes it look and feel more premium compared to the last outing.
Re: Reminder: Switch 2's New Joy-Con Set Is Out This Week
@JohnnyMind I never used my grips, even going back to the OG Switch. The whole concept of joycons loose in each hand won me over straight away.
Re: Reminder: Switch 2's New Joy-Con Set Is Out This Week
@JohnnyMind for people that don't use pro controllers and enjoy using the joycons, you'll see the colours all the time. This is for those people. Mine sit on the arm of my couch/on the coffee table loose all the time...
Re: Round Up: The Previews Are In For Pokémon Pokopia
@Anti-Matter never touched it, don’t have a Switch 2, yet you’ve reviewed it. Ok.
Re: Review: Mario Tennis Fever (Switch 2) - Slim For Singles, But An Addictive Core Gives It Online Legs
@roboshort I also recommend checking his post history...bursting at the seams with edge. Leather jackets, cigarettes etc.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined?
@jesse_dylan just passed the 15 hour mark, the tone of the game is definitely changing!
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Mario Tennis Fever For Switch 2?
Strange. No.1 on the UK eshop.
Re: Review: Mario Tennis Fever (Switch 2) - Slim For Singles, But An Addictive Core Gives It Online Legs
@RiasGremory my thoughts exactly, it's a party game with a bonus single player mode thrown in. Not the other way round.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined?
11 hours in and I’m enjoying it, basic field and sea battles I just stick on auto tactics to get them out of the way, it’s a cozy game so far! Too early to tell whether I prefer it to XI, the mechanics are very similar though.
Re: UK Charts: Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined Starts Strong, But It's Not Enough To Reach The Top
Managed to pick up my copy of Dragon Quest VII yesterday, looking forward to it...

@HammerGalladeBro Fresh batch of troops at the US military bases?
Re: PSA: Monster Hunter Stories 3 Switch 2 Trial Demo Now Available, Save Data Carries Over
@OpheliaDynamight yep when it hits that threshold it’s time to turn the console off and put a film on.

Re: Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase February 2026: Every Announcement, Game Reveal, Trailer
Quite a selection, outside of gaming circles most people don’t own every console and a gaming pc. For me as a Switch/Switch 2 only owner that was packed. I could easily own the other consoles or a PC but can’t be arsed as I prefer convenience.
Also it’s great to see how people aren’t leaving money on the table with the Switch 2. Capcom’s throwing everything at it.

@Aki77 because he's a troll perhaps? I remember when I was 12...

@Nintoz best way to be, I'm just looking forward to the crying in the comments tomorrow.

@Duncanballs Far more important things in life than games. You wouldn’t think it round here though! 😀
Re: Here's A Look At The Best-Selling Switch And Switch 2 Games So Far
I'm sure they'll be happy with those Kirby sales - it will carry on selling throughout the Switch 2's lifespan.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Dragon Quest VII: Reimagined
“7/10 - too many words.” IGN
Re: Switch 2 Storms Towards Its Forecast Target With 17.37 Million Units Sold
I could have sworn someone said sales ground to a halt in October…? I’ll have a look and report back.
