@OpheliaDynamight you forgot to add /s 😄

@Regulus6891 censorship articles = guaranteed site traffic...

I'd never even heard of this game until this week. Was never on my radar. Funnily enough it seems to be doing well on the eshop.

I would imagine another cruise through Mario Kart World, might stick on Yakuza Kiwami again, the Switch 2 upgrade is nice but I was so rusty when I played it I got absolutely battered in a nightclub, need a bulletproof vest methinks...

@anoyonmus See? Nintendo's even managed to get the PS5 version censored. Damn you Nintendo etc...

@KevinP could you tell me who 'we" is, out of curiosity, considering it's the best selling Switch 2 game? Dunno about you but Mario Kart World worked out to be peanuts for me...£20 tops?

@Orpheus79V Look directly above you lol.

@TheExile285 Can’t be that far off…it has some use but the hype far exceeds its worth.

Looks like there will be a lot of happy prospective punters in here! (and a couple not so happy who will no doubt vent their spleen on Twitter)...people should know setting up alt accounts to sow dissent doesn't work around here.

Not really into these things, but I know people who absolutely loved it, perfect for handheld...

@jsty3105 I got on a flight to NYC from London in August, I saw about 6 Switches on that flight just in the peasant section….

Mario Kart World again methinks, one day I'll get round to doing all the cups in all the ccs, only got the 50cc so far but I'm still perfectly happy just free roaming and taking in the scenery and chilling.

Also some Streets of Rage 4 I would imagine.

@jsty3105 I remember when I was 12....

@jsty3105 account that appeared in 2025, one agenda...lol

@jsty3105 and then they'll only buy the games if they're on a deep deep discount. But they have the cash for figurines, graphics cards, giant TVs, surround sound, LEDs and themed controllers...

@Duncanballs Looking forward to DQ7, they can’t leave me dangling like that…

@jsty3105 Thing is the gap isn't that big any more, so obviously that means the goalposts have to move again. Like an OLED screen's gonna make it cheaper lol...

@jsty3105 people were doing this with the OG Switch. Acting shocked because it doesn't look as good as a PS4 Pro or Xbox One X or their gaming rig...

@SurprisedRobinChu Kool. Fantastic. Off you pop! Enjoy!

@Alpha008 there’s a smear campaign that isn’t panning out as hoped.

@UpsideDownRowlet it is an interesting hobby, lurking around big box stores counting the Switch 2 boxes.

@Not_Soos @upsidedownrowlet delivered to your door in discreet packaging.

@Solid_Python need to dig out some of the highlights from that comment section. Some absolute gems in there.

@ThatOnePenguin oh that's nice.

@Arawn93 They’re still reaching…it’s funny when you see these people who signed up last year and they have nearly 1000 posts of solid crying.

@Duncanballs random encounters turned me off Skies of Arcadia instantly. Especially coming off the back of Grandia 2 where I could choose my battles most of the time. But yeah I like to talk to everyone and open every drawer and cupboard and scour places…

@jsty3105 somewhere out there is a website called Fisher Price Life, where a bunch of dudes rage in the comments every time Fisher Price gets a new president.

@Duncanballs @Pillowpants did the demo in about 5 hours and didn’t want it to end. Sold! It’s got a lot of charm and it’s been super cozy. I was introduced to the series by XI S which I loved, so glad you can choose to fight rather than getting random encounters out of nowhere all the time.

@ThatOnePenguin nobody does… 😀

@ThatOnePenguin Well if you consider racism and endless bots free speech on Twitter then that's fair enough, we all have our opinions at the end of the day...mine is Twitter is a cesspit. I know, I use it all the time and filter out garbage regularly on there. Thankfully they separate the bilge known as For You away from my following/followers, a bit like a sewer system.

@ButterySmooth30FPS "but but but it's cheaper there!!!!??!?!?!" etc.

But but but framerates??? PS5 Digital sales??? Big western AAA games??? It's a shutout over there.

I remember getting this back on the Dreamcast, it was the first RE to do away with the room to room method of getting around and was my introduction to the RE series! My next Resident Evil after that was RE4 on the Gamecube...nothing since!

@Misima unplayable!!!! Preorder cance….oh wait a sec.

@Aquinas I remember having some dude pestering the hell out of me on here years ago trying to convince me about VR...oh man. Could not take a hint in any shape or form. I've probably cursed myself and he'll turn up again...

"Yes but what's the framerate? We need to know these things!!!"

@Severian @EVIL-C it would be great if it did for all those people who loved it, but it truly is a cult classic rather than a blockbuster, much like how they've released all them random SNES and NES games that people have said "why?" for. It got fanned over here in the UK big time by the critics as well and did poor numbers in Japan when it came out which killed its sales. If it did better numbers I'm sure it would resurface somehow. You never know, if it comes to GC NSO and everyone jumps on it, they'd see the stats...

@Aquinas I'm glad I don't know people like this in real life...

@IronMan30 No! Never! When?????

@ThatOnePenguin Yeah Twitter still exists, but once you sift through the bots and the racism and the doom and gloomers, there's not much left of it of any worth. At least I'm rid of Temu ads now! But where the post appeared has nothing to do with Nintendolife.

Edit: And what do you know, it's down again! Cloudflare timeout. What a shame.

People craving a Switch 2 OLED yet crying that the Switch 2 in its current form is way too expensive. Then run out and buy a Deckbeard because they say there’s no games on the Switch 2. I struggle to keep up with the comment section logic. Selective stinginess.

@Solid_Python cue the Eternal Darkness requests...it only sold about half a million but absolutely everyone will want it lol

The Japanese punters definitely aren't "spooked"...

@Solid_Python wow this is fun, I was browsing in another tab when I smelled the hate so I decided to pop in. Stocks go up and down all the time. Some people need a different hobby if this is making them melt down like this…some dude wrote a million points that I will never read. He needs to go outside.

@spiderman0616 it bears no relation to reality. There’s a whole crew of people with a massive hate boner for the Switch 2 that appeared round about the time of the reveal. Some of them quit or got banned when they realised their posts didn’t work. Some of them are still pressing on, I can’t help but wonder if it’s organised. People can’t be that sad surely.

Now that I've joined the Switch 2 universe I shall be indulging in some Mario Kart World - loving it, free roam is super chilled...and I will give this Dragon Quest VII demo a spin to see how it is.

@Bass_X0 you’re bringing logic to the comment section. That’s not how it works, you need to throw in unrealistic expectations that only a handful of people will want and address Nintendo directly. 😀

@spiderman0616 I swear some people only set up accounts on here to sow dissent. That "Switch 2 struggling" article, the comment section was drowning in them...and if you check their post histories all they've ever done is cry in here.

@spiderman0616 they pretty much did what people asked and they still flipped their lids. Pricewise I did great, got the MKW bundle for £409.99, It’s normally £449.99, if I bit the bullet in November it would have been £399.99. So basically I got MKW for peanuts! Plus Amazon are selling a lot of Switch 2 titles for the same price as OG Switch games. Pays to shop around…but yeah the US situation is bad. The dollar is really weak and will only get worse.

@Duncanballs I reckon that whole subject should be categorised as “off topic” as it derails comment sections every time. Unless they do yet another article about it of course, it could serve as a containment centre.

This is how they got me for DQXI, and I loved it.
