Re: 'Hello, Mario!' App For Switch Updated To Version 1.0.2

I think this is a great little experience for small kids. No overly loud overstimulating animations/music, the experience only lasts 10 minutes or so before booting you out and restarting so it limits screen time. People might think this is stupid but obviously they don’t have much experience with kids.

Re: Nintendo Is Preparing For Even More Movies In The Future, Unsurprisingly

I’m pumped. It’s always cool seeing something you love getting out to such a major audience on such a large scope, despite Nintendo being pretty mainstream. I enjoyed the first Mario movie, it wasn’t a masterpiece but it was a visual treat with a great score and was a good time overall, just felt very “quick”. With how involved Nintendo is I can’t see any of these projects not being at least respectful to the source material.

Re: Japanese Charts: Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds Can't Compete With Mario Kart World

Been saying this from the start. The game itself can be good, but Mario OWNS this category and will never be beat in terms of longevity and popularity. I don’t think the pricing helped Crossworlds at all either, as really for everything the game has to offer, it’s MORE expensive than MK World.

Again, not discrediting the game. It’s not my cup of tea from the demo I played, but there’s no denying it’s a quality time.

Re: Opinion: The Mario Movie Was Okay At Best, But I Can't Wait For The Sequel

The first was everything it needed to be; Introduce these characters and the world to the big screen in a true to form way.

They established the world and all the necessary characters, and now that they got all of that out of the way, they can let loose and really dial in on this story, which this is one of the few Mario games that actually has some story to take from.

I can’t wait, it’s going to be so visually striking with everything being in space, and Brian Tyler has proven himself with the score already.

Re: Madden NFL 26 Updated On Switch 2, Here Are The Patch Notes

@SwitchedOn_Games I love Madden and had this version in my cart, until I played my friends copy when he came over. It’s inconsistent frames, and as someone who plays Madden a ton, I cannot have that. So the whole narrative of “you can’t have an opinion you’ve never played it” is flat out wrong.

“Lazy devs” is not a lazy argument at all. Despite me loving this series, these are lazy, iterative titles that deserve time and effort to be put in them. Criticism is good, it makes the end product better.

Also, yes Cyberpunk is a PS4 title, but you know what also was? Madden 25, and there isn’t very much a difference between 25 and 26 visually. Hit 60fps no problem there though. So again, no reason it should be 60 here, as the Switch 2 is more powerful than the PS4.

No reason, lazy and rushed. Simple as that. It doesn’t take an education (despite me having one against your judgment) to come to that conclusion.

@SwitchedOn_Games I do understand how games are made, took multiple classes under my major in college so I like to think I have a basic understanding.

Stop being so damn cocky and realize this is a rush job, and defending EA out of all companies is hilarious. The Series S is able to produce 60fps gameplay, 30fps cutscenes, a system comparable in power to the Switch 2. While the Switch 2 is behind in terms of memory, the Switch 2 has more advanced tech that can pick up the slack and give us a fairly uncompromised version running at 60. You cannot sit here and tell me that that isn’t possible when we have games such s Cyberpunk and Outlaws, way more taxing games, that run at the same frame rate.
