@Grim As an American I feel the same way. Is there a Canadian version I can take a look at?

As soon as I saw the pic I wanted to buy this. Then I saw the price. I'm not saying it's not worth it, I'm just saying I'm not worth it. Financially. My net worth. I'm poor.

I bought this game at launch just to support full games on cart (and kinda because I wanted a physical Switch 2 game) and I finally started playing it a couple days ago. I do not like fps games, but I'm hooked. I knew going in that it was more of an RPG, but I had no idea it would hook me like this. It's a little crass for my taste sometimes, but as a casual fan of the TTRPG back in the day (never played it, just read about the setting) it's really scratching all the right itches.
Also of note, I'm really getting a kick out of the flashback scenes where people have full cybernetic body parts set in the far future of ...

SPOILERS FOR THE VERY EARLY GAME AND A TABLE TOP RPG UNIVERSE THAT'S NEARLY 40 YEARS OLD....

2023 lol (the setting was established in the 80s/90s and they kept the continuity as a timeline separate from our own, which was the best call for sure, but it's quite comedic for me.) (I love parenthesis.)

@The_Nintend_Pedant it's definitely a bit of both. My guess is that they knew it was going to be impossible because of their experience in the area so they didn't really bother and decided to spin it. Clarity isn't a strength of mine, I almost wrote a second paragraph but decided there was already way too much word salad there. Should I have hit send? The answer is usually no.

A lot of commenters here don't seem to have much experience with the lunacy of the music industry. They can't just put the same songs in these games without renewing the rights to each and every single song they put in it. The logistics of getting all this music put back into this game would surely be nightmarish to say the least. Rights have probably changed hands, some bands might be bigger now than when the original came out, some might have become greedier, thinking their songs were more important to the game than they actually are. (More likely, it would be the bands' managers who got greedy.) Some bands might have split up. Just look up Bittersweet Symphony for a look inside the garbage that can happen even if you're really careful. (It's not a perfect analog for this situation, but it provides some insight.)

I was under the impression that Nintendo couldn't unban Switch 2s. Is this not the case?

I was shocked by how fast mine is, so this comes as a bit of a surprise to me.

I'm wishlisting this immediately.

@The_Nintend_Pedant it's your username sir: it is in your nature.

Why do you guys keep saying fastest selling "Nintendo Hardware" instead of fastest selling Video Game Console? Is the latter not true?

Monster Hunter Rise. My wife and I can finally play this together since we have two systems that can run it.

Is Bob not back?

@axelhander This is like the one situation where AI actually is the problem.

I love Mario Kart World. It's one of the best games I've ever played. The omission of standard races is an absolutely mind-bending flaw. I do think Nintendo will add it eventually, soon even, but it should never have released without it. If it was any other company there would be no doubt that they'd fix it,

@Michael0916 @iLikeUrAttitude yeah, the analog triggers are like the main selling point. Only the Dreamcast had analog triggers before the GameCube.

Can't wait for the paid DLC

I just fired up Wind Waker for the first time and these issues are way more obvious than I expected. I'm usually completely oblivious to lemme issues like this. But more importantly, why didn't the Switch ever get WW & TP HD? This makes no sense! They're both so good!

@Baker1000 That's not true, I'm sure they've touched the C button quite often BY MISTAKE WHEN TRYING TO PUSH THE HOME BUTTON IT'S INFURIATING WHY IS IT THERE?

I've got too many games to play! Now you're telling me I have to go play TOTK before this gets patched?

@KBuckley27 what are you even going on about? Third party publishers will put anything that can run on the Switch on the Switch! Hell, some companies want their games on Switch so bad they put them on it even if it can't run it! Whether it runs like crap or they have to make a cloud version, everyone wants to get in on the best selling console.

@PessitheMystic username checks out

@prw_88 every other choice is just another bad actor.

@Splash_Woman I'm in your boat. I have always hated DK. I hated when DK Jr was put into Super Mario Kart, that's how far back my hate for DK goes. But the game looks great and Pauline is a part of the new DK canon girl power I'm in

This is definitely why DK and Pauline only have one costume each in MKW. They'll be getting a lot more.

@sketchturner no

@prw_88 because everyone besides Gamestop was sold out. Consumers do not have choices, that is an illusion.

@Exerion76 mom and pop stores are increasingly rare in America, especially ones that sell video games. Outside of major cities you will not find anything but Walmart, maybe a Target, and whatever regional name Kroger gives to the grocery stores in that area. We also have Family Dollar!

@iammikegaines it's one thing to steal someone's work just for a joke, it's another thing entirely to steal someone's work and then use it to make your company money.

The 8bitdo Ultimate 2C Switch version is only $30 and it has 2 remappable trigger buttons and turbo. Also really intense rumble which makes interplanetary travel in No Man's Sky a little extra immersive. It really should cost more.

I was heavily involved in software piracy for over a decade. I got started before limewire or torrents existed; we used a program called "hotline" (iirc) (and irc as that last acronym just reminded me.) NONE OF THIS IS NEW. This behavior has always been met with harsh penalties when you get caught. Metallica sued their own fans! The amount of hubris in the switch2hacks subreddit is on a whole new level. I've been hearing "these are just backups of games I own!" since 1998. Where'd you get that Terranigma rom then, huh? (In America?) Final Fantasy V with a fan translation patch? (In 1998?) What's that a backup of?

It just needs more varied, better rewards!otherwise I love it

Every course in this game is epic.

@AZYotes5013 yeah, I've got about 13 hours in. It's still worth playing while they sort it out, so long as you're starting a new game anyway. I hadn't played in years so it's been amazing getting back in.

@sixrings wow, it goes even deeper than I could've imagined.

@sixrings that's an interesting reality you've concocted for yourself. I think it's probably more because we can play Nintendo games on Nintendo consoles. They're pretty good games.

@JAGleics didn't even read the comments about the review

I was not expecting No Man's Sky to be my Switch 2 launch go to game.

They massacred my boy!

Wow, I was going to pick this up to play with my wife now that we'll have 2 consoles to play on.

Rad, I'll pick it up tonight with my Switch 2!

I want to know what a lasagna-esque race is.

Why is this pachinko company making video games all of a sudden i confused

@Jack_Goetz honestly they should bundle it with the camera then. That would be fair.

@Jack_Goetz Don't do it man, I want it too! Be strong with me!

@bluemage1989 and you're wasting ours

@Drummertist there would be no sonic games.

@Aispen I might have to pick one up because I only like to use the D-Pad for cardinal directions so the diagonal thing might actually be good for me...

@Supadav03 8bitdo makes really good stuff, you should try them out. I think I own just about every controller they've ever made, but my favorite is one of the cheaper ones.

@Bass_X0 oh, how rational. Good thing there's an interview that doesn't exist anymore that explains what a devastating cultural blow this was. I'm glad they changed the rest of the game back, because I'm sure they were definitely going to use "A" and "B" instead of gendered pronouns throughout the game as you've implied.

@RaTheGrey Why does that bother you so much?
