Re: Talking Point: One Month On, How Did Nintendo's Switch 2 Launch Go?

Do like mine it’s a lovely upgrade even if the screen could be brighter and wish the chip was fabbed on a better process. Nintendo have cheaped out on that making a hot console with sub-par battery. Also agree with others that a direct showing the roadmap would be nice.

Happy but also a little underwhelmed is how I’m feeling.

@HaNks yes that’s what I said ages ago too. They could’ve used a newer fab process, 8nm is old and not efficient but of course it was cheap.

I found my device super hot on one occasion and was surprised at the heat coming out of the fans, though it didn’t shut down or cause any issues playing. My OLED never got anywhere close to that heat though.

Re: Opinion: I Never Felt True Nostalgia Until I Played GameCube On Switch 2

I remember queuing up drunk with my mates at the midnight launch at game in Brighton. Couldn’t wait to get my hands on the GameCube as it was due the follow up to my favourite game of all time, Mario 64.

Sadly Mario sunshine didn’t hit the same notes but I loved many other GC games and even to this day still hold out hope for a wave race sequel!
