Companies “leak” information purposefully sometimes as it’s a solid marketing strategy that gains a lot of clicks or often go viral.
It’s human nature for people to want to see what they shouldn’t see. Not saying that’s what’s happened here as some leaks aren’t intended however I wouldn’t be surprised.
I remember buying a PlayStation new for £100 and now a controller is almost the same price. Crazy s*** yo!
I’m a fan of the pro controller but this RE2 isn’t exactly that special for my tastes. For that price I’d expect something special like the dualsense 30th anniversary edition.
@ShadLink except the S2 version is probably €25 more than the S1 so it would’ve been nice to have included it. They added good value like this with Kirby so why not with AC?
@Sindayl in this case it does seem like they’re charging for nothing but in some cases like Kirby you get a lot of extra content for the upgrade price.
Finishing off rebirth at the moment. It’d be good if these get cross progression as I’d like to take my saves mobile on the switch. Anyone know if this is something that’s been implemented?
Glad this and outlaws have cross progression. Will see how I feel after Yotei if I’m up for more Japanese open world but will probably pick this up at some point. Outlaws is brilliant on switch 2 so hopefully this’ll be just as good!
I mean Pokémon was (is?) a massive franchise that surely should deserve a budget to suit. Why do they keep releasing games that look like mobile games from 2015?
Good to hear some positive news in the console space and S2 certainly seems like its success will see more competition from Sony and MS in the next few years.
Oh well at least London's getting a pop up shop for a month. Better than nothing I suppose but its location centrally would have been better like Rockefeller in nyc.
Looks good but if this is a switch 2 release shouldn’t they have waited for proper switch 2 dev kits before releasing? A 60fps mode would’ve been nice for its release anyway.

Re: Anniversary: 20 Years Ago, 'GUN' Brought America's Old West (And An All-Star Cast) To GameCube
@PJOReilly couldn’t agree more with RDR2 being bloated in all honesty. Plus the pacing was sloooow.
I absolutely adored RDR1 and was so disappointed with the sequel, didn’t even make it to the end.
Re: Site News: Nintendo Life Turns 20 Today!
Congrats NL and those that have made this my go-to Nintendo site over the last few decades.
I was here from (near) the beginning and will remain an avid reader. Visiting is an automatic part of my daily routine.
Keep up the good work!
Re: Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition Performance And Resolution Revealed
I light get this just to support them putting it on the cart!
Re: Square Enix Hit By Mass Layoffs As Part Of Global Restructuring
“to be hit with layoffs”
This makes it sound like it was out of their control. The reality is they created the layoffs.
Re: Opinion: Third-Party Support For Switch 2 Is Already A Dream Come True
@jfp thank you I feel safer now!
Re: Zelda: A Link To The Past And Chrono Trigger Are "Ripe For Remakes", Says Analytics Firm
Would love a high budget, proper ocarina remaster or even remake.
Link to the past also please!
Re: Opinion: Third-Party Support For Switch 2 Is Already A Dream Come True
I’d argue DK was as good as any Mario.
Please don’t shoot me.
Re: Nintendo States Its Intention To Acquire More Development Teams
Yep I’d be down for shi’nen and mercurystream!
With MS making so many layoffs they could probably pick up some cheap bargains or at least find unemployed devs!
Re: Supply Of Switch Hardware Will Continue If Enough Demand Persists
@N00BiSH yes they said the DS was their “third pillar” but then soon dropped the gba once the DS took off!
Re: Nintendo Is Preparing For Even More Movies In The Future, Unsurprisingly
I agree with others. I hope the Zelda film has an actual story with depth and not dumbed down.
Re: Mario Kart World And Donkey Kong Bananza Shortlisted For 'Console Game Of The Year'
Yep DK would win it if I had to choose!
Re: Resident Evil Pro Controller Is Available To Pre-Order, But Its Price Is Terrifying

I’m a fan of the pro controller but this RE2 isn’t exactly that special for my tastes. For that price I’d expect something special like the dualsense 30th anniversary edition.
Re: PSA: Don't Expect Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition To Include The DLC
@ShadLink in the uk you can get AC on S1 for £35 new. That’s what I was referring to. I probably should have been more clear.
Re: PSA: Don't Expect Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition To Include The DLC
@ShadLink except the S2 version is probably €25 more than the S1 so it would’ve been nice to have included it. They added good value like this with Kirby so why not with AC?
Re: Animal Crossing: New Horizons Is Nintendo's Cheapest Switch 2 Edition Yet
@Sindayl in this case it does seem like they’re charging for nothing but in some cases like Kirby you get a lot of extra content for the upgrade price.
Re: Microsoft On Its Gaming Business Going Forward: "We Want To Be Everywhere"
@Doomcrow I did that and am very happy about my decision. Enjoy!
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Imprisonment?
Love Zelda but don’t love the type of game this is so not for me thanks.
Re: "Go Tell Nintendo" - Ex-Blizzard President Responds After Xbox Calls Exclusives "Antiquated"
I agree with him. Just because Xbox failed doing it doesn’t mean it’s not a valid model.
Re: Xbox Reiterates Its Support For Switch 2
@GregamanX ah love that! Well in that case you can’t not get one! I hope it’s as magical for you as it was back in the day!
Re: Xbox Reiterates Its Support For Switch 2
@GregamanX halo being your reason is a little ironic but I don’t think you’d regret a ps5, it’s a great console.
Re: Xbox Reiterates Its Support For Switch 2
@Haruki_NLI yep everything’s an Xbox… except switch 2 lol
Re: Xbox Reiterates Its Support For Switch 2
@The-Chosen-one yes well a 10 year promise could just comprise of one cod in year 10. Promise kept.
Re: Xbox Reiterates Its Support For Switch 2
Spencer is full of hot air.
Re: Feature: "I've Been Brought Up By Final Fantasy" - Naoki Hamaguchi On Bringing The FFVII Remake Trilogy To Switch 2
Finishing off rebirth at the moment. It’d be good if these get cross progression as I’d like to take my saves mobile on the switch. Anyone know if this is something that’s been implemented?
Re: Metroid Prime Remastered Almost Had Completely New Cutscenes
@Metazoxan agreed and there’s no way I’m holding off on MP4!
Re: It's Official, Assassin's Creed Shadows Comes To Switch 2 In December With Cross-Progression
Glad this and outlaws have cross progression. Will see how I feel after Yotei if I’m up for more Japanese open world but will probably pick this up at some point. Outlaws is brilliant on switch 2 so hopefully this’ll be just as good!
Re: Metroid Prime Remastered Almost Had Completely New Cutscenes
@Metazoxan yes you’re right. I guess id just like them before 4 so I can play them again in order 😀
Re: Metroid Prime Remastered Almost Had Completely New Cutscenes
So with prime 4 out soon does that mean we’re not getting 2&3 remakes as rumoured?
Would have thought they’d be out before 4…
Re: Gallery: Here's A Closer Look At The London Pop-Up Nintendo Store's Sweet Merch
I’ll try and get there at some point, hope it does well enough that they consider a permanent place in central London.
Re: Anniversary: SNES Action RPG 'Terranigma' Is 30 Years Old Today, And It's Still A 10/10 In Our Book
Used to have a mint copy of this but never played it. Wish I’d never sold it as I’m sure it’s worth quite a bit now!
Re: Video: Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade Official Side-By-Side Comparison (Switch 2, Xbox, PS5, PC)
Was hoping this was going to turn out bad so I’m not so tempted to play this again on switch but looks like I might be buying it again!
Re: Ask Iwata Is Getting A Paperback Release In Summer 2026
I miss Iwata at the helm, current execs seem faceless, impersonal and too greedy.
Re: Mini Review: Pokémon Legends: Z-A (Switch) - Mostly Stable, Much Less Shiny
I mean Pokémon was (is?) a massive franchise that surely should deserve a budget to suit. Why do they keep releasing games that look like mobile games from 2015?
Re: Nintendo Reportedly Increases Switch 2 Production To 25 Million Units For Year 1
Good to hear some positive news in the console space and S2 certainly seems like its success will see more competition from Sony and MS in the next few years.
Re: Wolfenstein II Gets A New Physical Edition For Switch Full Of Tat
Was an ok game, largely forgettable for me though.
Re: The ROG Xbox Ally X Receives Glowing Reviews, But It's Still Pretty Pricey
For that price I’d definitely expect an oled screen, damn
Re: Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker Receives A Small Update (Version 1.4.1)
Really enjoyed this. Would be down for a sequel definitely!
Re: Rumour: Assassin's Creed Shadows On Switch 2 May Clash With Metroid Prime 4
I more or less bought my S2 in anticipation of Prime 4 so I know where my moneys going!
May get shadows further down the line though.
Re: Nintendo Is Opening Its Fourth Store In Japan This Year
Oh well at least London's getting a pop up shop for a month. Better than nothing I suppose but its location centrally would have been better like Rockefeller in nyc.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (11th October)
Back to finish off FF7 Rebirrh which I dropped for something else about a year ago. Really enjoying it!
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows Switch 2 Rating Spotted Online
I might grab this on switch but not sure how much open world Japanese goodness I’ll need after ghost of yotei…
Re: Review: Yooka-Replaylee (Switch 2) - Feels Like The Game It Was Meant To Be, Finally
Looks good but if this is a switch 2 release shouldn’t they have waited for proper switch 2 dev kits before releasing? A 60fps mode would’ve been nice for its release anyway.
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Switch 2 Trailer Introduces Shinra, The Turks & Avalanche
@Metaphor1987 yes I know but it’s still a benefit for those that do. I wasn’t saying they’re perfect just better than codes in a box.
Re: Poll: How Many New Games Do You Buy In A Year?
I buy more than I have time to play but it still doesn’t stop me adding to my backlog! Probably 10-15 a year on average.
Re: Poll: Do You Think Nintendo's New Animated Short 'Close To You' Is Pikmin Related?
It’s Nintendo… nobody knows… not even Nintendo
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Switch 2 Trailer Introduces Shinra, The Turks & Avalanche
I’m not a fan of key cards either but at least you can resell them unlike codes in a box.
Re: Final Fantasy VII Remake Switch 2 Trailer Introduces Shinra, The Turks & Avalanche
Loved this game and rebirth. No doubt the full trilogy will be making its way to S2 in time and I may well double dip!
Re: Nintendo Goes Full Pixar In Strange New Animated Short Film, 'Close To You'
New wave race confirmed!
(I know but I can dream 😅)
Re: Best Nintendo Switch Strategy Games
Just picked up Persona 5 Tactica for £12 on Amazon if anyone’s interested in the uk…
