@BaldB3lper78 you’re missing the point. The point is this is an extremely lazy cash grab port. The switch 2 can run games better than a ps4 pro yet we got a port worse than the ps3 original.
@gcunit there is no stand alone NS1 physical however the NS2 physical works on both NS1 and NS2 as both versions are included on the cartridge.
Also @jimnorman this is not a reverse cover. It’s inner box art. A reverse cover requires the logos and spine title. There’s a difference and people often make this mistake calling all inner box art “reverseable covers”
@olliemar28 I’m glad you clarified you still think RE5 is good despite it being one of your least favorite entries. People often confuse “least” and “worst” to automatically mean “bad” when it honestly doesn’t.
Hopefull finishing Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter on the Switch 2 and starting Castlevania Harmony of Dissonance. Also some Fortnite with friends on Ps5.
@Filthy reporting on Twitter and Reddit outrage has been big on PureXbox, they’re open about it generating clicks and engagement over there despite community criticism. Guess it was eventual that NintendoLife and PushSquare would follow.
@SalvorHardin there isn’t really a “trilogy” atm. 7 started a story which 8 finished, 9 is continuing the story from the Outbreak games and RE2 and 3, the remakes are just doing their own thing with the next 2 remakes reportedly being 0 ans Code Veronica.
@Liam_Doolan I can’t find concrete information online with all active SF6 promos and events and codes Would be cool if you did an article compiling and updating them like PushSquare does with Borderlands Vault Keys since BL2.
@dartmonkey there’s an error in the “what’s on switch” section. It says PLZA released in 2022 and Mega Dimensions in 2025 when PLZA is 2025 and Mega Dimensions is 2026.
@HugoGED that’s because games stop supporting multiplayer if you aren’t on the latest version. Sakurai himself said part of the content revealed this week is in the day 1 patch.
NGL it’s rough when only 1 game out of a 1.000+ game library can reach a userscore of 9.0 or above and when majority of the top 50 hangs in the 7.0 range.
The game has lip syncing. It should have voice acting. Even if we go by the “the quality is bad because TPC has strict merchandise deadlines” argument Voice Acting is something they can do alongside development of the game.
@BrewsterTea the $60 set is an Eevee, the $200 set is a pikachu with a pokeball, the $650 set is the kanto starters. But we’re getting 20 regular and 8 promotional Pokemon sets throughout 2026 so I bet one of the promo sets will be a ball.
@EarthboundBenjy the term metroidvania actually specifically comes from Castlevania Symphony of the Night and Super Metroid. It didn’t exist yet after SM itself. People tend to call the Metroid inspired ones Metroidvanias and the SotN inspired ones Igavanias in reference to Igarashi.
People originally said the NSO overview trailer was a test build likely with every ROM included but if the 5 leaked games in that trailer are actually coming I’ll be really happy (well 4 now since 1 happened) Excited for DK64 and Rayman 2 in particular. Hope Rayman 2 means we’ll see the GB and GBA Rayman games like on 3ds and WiiU
Reminder to everyone, lego leaks are as reliable as reliable can get unlike gaming leaks. Lego really doesn’t care about stuff getting out, sometimes years in advance.
At the end of Chibi-Robo on the Switch 2. After that I’ll try and finish Ace Attorney: Spirit of Justice before Trails in the Sky: 1st Chapter releases. Maybe I’ll try and squeeze in Guacamelee.
@rvcolem1 I mean that’s because PlayStation isn’t the letter X. It’s the shape cross. Because PlayStation uses shapes… cross, triangle, square and circle.

Re: Best Tomb Raider Games, Ranked - Lara Croft On Switch & Nintendo Systems
@Casco nothing in art is “objective”
There is no “obtectively best” tomb raider.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (29th November)
Powerwash Simulator on Switch and One Piece Pirate Warriors 4 on Switch 2. Enjoying both.

Re: Ongoing MicroSD Shortages Could Have A Knock-On Effect For Switch 2 Storage Availability
@Dang_69 what’s wrong with lexar? I can’t find any issues online and my friends that have been using it for 6 months now haven’t had issues either.
Re: Ongoing MicroSD Shortages Could Have A Knock-On Effect For Switch 2 Storage Availability
Just ordered a 1TB one for my NS2 during a Black Friday sale. Seems like I made the right decision.

Re: Sony Once Again Takes A Leaf From Nintendo's Playbook In Japan
@dmcc0 they can’t lock Japanese language options. If the Japanese rom supports English it will be playable in English even on region locked consoles.
Re: Pokémon Pokopia Is Seemingly Nintendo's First Game-Key Card Release
@Jireland92 the publisher decides, not the developer
This game is published by The Pokemon Company.

Bought the game on sale with all DLC included last month in preparation. Excited to play it.
Re: Resident Evil Pro Controller Is Available To Pre-Order, But Its Price Is Terrifying
€99,99 is crazy when they’re normally €79,99. Why do Euro countries have to pay €20 more total?

Re: Talking Point: When Did 'Good Enough' Become Good Enough For Pokémon?
Ever since XY honestly.
And while I have adored every game before and after things should definitely change.

Re: Talking Point: How Do You Play NES Games These Days?
Nintendo Switch Online and retro game collections and compilations.
Re: 50 Best NES Games Of All Time

Re: Poll: Is It About Time Game Freak Added Voice Acting To Pokémon?
The game has lip syncing. It should have voice acting. Even if we go by the “the quality is bad because TPC has strict merchandise deadlines” argument Voice Acting is something they can do alongside development of the game.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (11th October)
I’m playing my first ever Resident Evil with Resident Evil 4 on the Switch 2, also still playing Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter.
Re: LEGO Game Boy Designers Discuss Collaborating With A "Very Involved" Nintendo
@BrewsterTea the $60 set is an Eevee, the $200 set is a pikachu with a pokeball, the $650 set is the kanto starters. But we’re getting 20 regular and 8 promotional Pokemon sets throughout 2026 so I bet one of the promo sets will be a ball.
Re: Another Pixel Art Zelda-Like Is On The Way, But This One Stars A Pig
@EarthboundBenjy the term metroidvania actually specifically comes from Castlevania Symphony of the Night and Super Metroid. It didn’t exist yet after SM itself.
People tend to call the Metroid inspired ones Metroidvanias and the SotN inspired ones Igavanias in reference to Igarashi.
Re: Another Pixel Art Zelda-Like Is On The Way, But This One Stars A Pig
Please don’t call action adventure games “zelda-likes”
Please don’t call anything a “[popular game]-like” besides Souls ans Rogue Likes.
