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.

@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.

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!

I light get this just to support them putting it on the cart!

“to be hit with layoffs”

This makes it sound like it was out of their control. The reality is they created the layoffs.

@jfp thank you I feel safer now!

Would love a high budget, proper ocarina remaster or even remake.

Link to the past also please!

I’d argue DK was as good as any Mario.

Please don’t shoot me.

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!

@N00BiSH yes they said the DS was their “third pillar” but then soon dropped the gba once the DS took off!

I agree with others. I hope the Zelda film has an actual story with depth and not dumbed down.

Yep DK would win it if I had to choose!

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 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.

@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.

@Doomcrow I did that and am very happy about my decision. Enjoy!

Love Zelda but don’t love the type of game this is so not for me thanks.

I agree with him. Just because Xbox failed doing it doesn’t mean it’s not a valid model.

@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!

@GregamanX halo being your reason is a little ironic but I don’t think you’d regret a ps5, it’s a great console.

@Haruki_NLI yep everything’s an Xbox… except switch 2 lol

@The-Chosen-one yes well a 10 year promise could just comprise of one cod in year 10. Promise kept.

Spencer is full of hot air.

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?

@Metazoxan agreed and there’s no way I’m holding off on MP4!

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!

@Metazoxan yes you’re right. I guess id just like them before 4 so I can play them again in order 😀

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…

I’ll try and get there at some point, hope it does well enough that they consider a permanent place in central London.

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!

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!

I miss Iwata at the helm, current execs seem faceless, impersonal and too greedy.

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.

Was an ok game, largely forgettable for me though.

For that price I’d definitely expect an oled screen, damn

Really enjoyed this. Would be down for a sequel definitely!

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.

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.

Back to finish off FF7 Rebirrh which I dropped for something else about a year ago. Really enjoying it!

I might grab this on switch but not sure how much open world Japanese goodness I’ll need after ghost of yotei…

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.

@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.

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.

It’s Nintendo… nobody knows… not even Nintendo

I’m not a fan of key cards either but at least you can resell them unlike codes in a box.

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!

New wave race confirmed!

(I know but I can dream 😅)

Just picked up Persona 5 Tactica for £12 on Amazon if anyone’s interested in the uk…
