I’ve decided to truly limit myself to PC and Nintendo now. No point on getting an Xbox or PlayStation anymore. At one point I had all three platforms, and besides my switch and PC they collected dust.
I don’t mind Game Key Cards as much as others, I think it’s a good compromise for the games that actually don’t fully fit on a Switch 2 cart, for the games that do like Bravely Default, then there is no excuse.
I don’t get the big fuss aside from having to download them (which I get is dumb). By my understanding isn’t this better than those stupid codes in boxes? You can still trade these, sell them, do whatever, you just have to download the game.
As a Lego fan this is a really awesome wave. The Castle Bowser set looks awesome and it’s really cool to have stuff from Wonder. Wario looks like he translates really well in brick form too.
@nocdaes Lego fans are a big fan of them and they sell quite well. Unique minifig molds and prints, and it’s a spiritual successor to Fabuland which was a very early Lego line.
I don’t mind this UI at all, I actually quite like it.
But please god let me stack icons in a row of at least two. I have a huge library and it’s annoying sometimes to scroll through it all to find a game I haven’t played in a bit.
@DollyrotsFan1 okay but problem with that example is that the original is awful to play due to the performance, I would hate to see how the new one does lmao. At least other titles like Rhythm Heaven and Tomodachi Life are making it to the Switch 1. I have a feeling that the titles that can be successfully ported there will. It’s too big of an install base to ignore.
@PikminMarioKirby Can I ask why you prefer the Rare design so much more? I just find the new one so much more appealing and expressive, even though I grew up with the Rare design. I just feel like it feels more Nintendo and fits within the Mario world and design language more.
I don’t understand these comments. Everyone cried about the lack of power with the Switch 1, here comes the Switch 2 with a huge leap in power (this is not 3DS to New 3DS people) and everyone’s complaining about it.
Just can’t understand the people who say this isn’t a significant upgrade from the past model or this was a “meh” direct. Wake up and realize what we were coming from people.
What is with everyone saying the Mario movie sucked? Yeah it was safe but I would also be safe as can be after the last time they tried to adapt it. Still a quality fun time and a feast for the eyes and ears.
The obvious pick is Pokemon, but Game Freak just doesn’t know how to develop games that look good any more, so fps isn’t the only issue there, the games lately are just ugly.
For me I’m going BOTW/TOTK as the needs. Those are both incredible games with its only thing holding those titles back being performance, give them the platform and power they deserve.
For my want, Mario Make 2 was a stellar pick. Just the same reasons, I want mouse support, that’s it.
Call me crazy but a while back John Cena randomly posted an 8bit Link sprite on instagram with no context shortly after they announced the film. Maybe he could be Ganon lol. Hes suprisingly a pretty good actor and he’s got the build for it so.
But speculation aside I have high hopes for this. The director is a big fan and nerd for the series and has been for a while evident by his Twitter posts over a decade ago, and his Planet of the Apes film was really solid. I think we are in a good place, honestly better than what we thought with Mario and that ended up being a good, yet safe time.
These are sick, don’t understand the hate but I was a past sneakerhead so maybe I have different taste. Would’ve liked to get a pair for the shelf or wear them on my Super Nintendo World trip.
That’s actually a shame. The multiversus team was a talented group despite the awful microtransactions and currency. Would have loved to see how this turned out.

Re: Reminder: Nintendo's Switch 2 Launches Worldwide Next Month
@Anti-Matter Not a wise move if you mean your hoping for a price decrease, because this thing is only going to go up in price.
Re: The Company That "Leaked" Switch 2 Is Being Sued By Nintendo
That was easily the stupidest thing they could have done. Funnily enough I just bought their vector cover for the Switch 2.

Re: Nintendo Direct: Mario Kart World: Every Announcement - How Would You Rate It?
@WaveBoy I can’t see how any one thinks this isn’t a substantial mix up in the formula.
Also saying Air Riders would be a better launch title is insane I’m sorry.
Re: Nintendo Direct: Mario Kart World: Every Announcement - How Would You Rate It?
It looks great and it’s obviously going to be great, but we didn’t need a direct if they are wanting to hide stuff from us, which they obviously are.

Re: Some Fans Are Drawing Unfavourable Comparisons Between Switch 2 And Xbox One
@-wc- Then people will complain that there is really no difference, and I don’t think the mouse or magnets really cost them all that much.
Re: Some Fans Are Drawing Unfavourable Comparisons Between Switch 2 And Xbox One
Funny jokes aside I don’t think it’s warranted lol. Doug is right, Switch isn’t going anywhere soon and there will be support for it for a long time.
Re: Community: What Questions About Switch 2 Do You Still Have For Nintendo?
@PikminMarioKirby Can I ask why you prefer the Rare design so much more? I just find the new one so much more appealing and expressive, even though I grew up with the Rare design. I just feel like it feels more Nintendo and fits within the Mario world and design language more.

Re: Rumour: New Switch 2 Rumour Makes Wild Claim About Mysterious 'C' Button
This would be a genius way to continue sales of the Switch 1. Once again shows Nintendo ideas that didn’t work in the past are never dead.
Re: Legend Of Zelda Movie Release Date Revealed, Coming March 2027
@RiasGremory We all said the same thing about Mario, and that turned out to be a fun, but safe time.
With Nintendo being involved, the worst it can be is safe.
