Damn I just feel the same thing gets announced over and over.

This direct was terrible from my point of view.

@SpangoNuts it is twice a single bull

Looking forward to this but I hope there’s some new stuff included and not just 2-3 year old ports on key cards.

If Metroid prime 4 can run at 120fps there’s really no excuse this can’t run at 60fps on switch 2.

After playing DK I’ve realised I can’t understand how NintendoLife didn’t give it a 10!

This is such a shame, loved this game.

Wow would have thought it would be better to axe the Xbox version seeing as the sales would be lower than switch’s…

lol yes a bit of an unfortunate name in the uk!

Oooh banana!

(Damn text limits)

@prw_88 haha oh my bad 🤣

Glad your S2 is ok!

I accept that key cards are a thing but please don’t insult our intelligence by trying to convince us that they are “the most beneficial option for the customer.”

They are not the best option for me so please don’t put words in my mouth.

Not surprised considering this is just a webcam you can buy elsewhere (and use) for £10.

Crazy price but I really feel like Nintendo thought everyone would be on board with this. When they announced it it was like they’d thought of some amazing new idea even though we’ve been doing it for decades already at this point.

Maybe I’m being a bit harsh but you won’t catch me paying £50 for a basic webcam.

@prw_88 what happened to your S2?

Sad news, RIP.

RIP Ozzy too…

I grabbed one as I’m not a massive fan of long sessions with the joycon.

It’s possibly my favourite Nintendo controller of all time!

@AmplifyMJ sadly that’s how you get clicks, ad revenue, visitors.

The same reason news on the TV is always negative.

Jungle beat was absolutely superb. Is criminal it didn’t get more love!

I’m so ready for a direct, especially one with a Prime 4 release date!

@Phil_Kil yes agreed, Han solo was a smuggler so it makes total sense to have him as the protagonist, at least in my head it does!

Loved this game and was underrated in my opinion.

I may even double dip on S2!

@cylemmulo not sure if you know but you can reset the land if you want to. There’s an option on the map page.

@Spider-Kev depends how you play it. There’s always people that finish any game in a few days.

I only have about 16% of the bananas and played it most of the weekend. It’s not as small as you might think.

Also doubt you’ll get much of a discount seeing as this is a first party release.

I’m sure this will have a long tail sales curve and continue to sell well as more people buy switch 2’s.

It deserves to sell many millions anyway!

@Ryu_Niiyama same I only get this with FPS games sometimes…

DK has been fine!

The further into the game I get the better it becomes. Not finished it yet but def a 10/10 for me. It’s so fun to play and I’m enjoying the novelty of character upgrades in a first party Nintendo game!

@frizzy ah ok thanks I thought I must have missed something!

Interesting comparison - like comparing a PS5 to a desktop PC.

Damn that’s expensive!

Donkey Kong is so good, that’s all I’ll be playing even though I have a dozen other games I’m half way through!

@N00BiSH I forgot they’re the old brownie brown team. Always wish they’d kept their old name I liked it!

Also even though EPD area great team, is this their first release in 8 years?

I didn’t even know this was a thing. Nice!

I have this case and it’s not up to usual tomtoc standards in my opinion.

There’s a large gap at the top when you put your console in which tomtoc decided to fill with a random cushion. Also the raised joystick/button parts on the lid don’t line up with the actual parts of the console. Small things but not their usual quality.

Can’t decide whether to get this on S2 for portability or PS5 as it’s half the price of S2. Help!

Can’t wait til tomorrow this is what my switch 2 has been waiting for.

91% on metacritic now so glad most concur with NL!

I’m holding out hope that Hori make some split pad pros for the switch 2. Loved those on my S1 oled.

Just had notification my copy’s been shipped, wahoo!

@X68000 does Mario World need a remaster? It’s perfect as it is!

Meanwhile I’m loving my new pro controller 😂

@The-Chosen-one @ozwally definitely CoH 2 & 3 with mouse controls would be sweet. Command & Conquer with Red Alert would be even sweeter! Let’s hope it happens…

If this is supported on switch 2 with mouse controls I’d buy it.

His legend lives on in the Switch 2...

If anything switch 2 may be marginally better than my switch 1 but that’s not saying much seeing how super slow that was.

S2 is still slow vs my ps5, iPad or virtually anything else. Did Nintendo cheap out on the wifi chip again?

Great game, so glad I picked this up…

Cool looking forward to Forza and Hellsivers 2 😁

I stopped buying MS products years ago for many reasons but one of them was their shifty practices. This situation hasn’t done anything to win me back.

@Sambuc yeah I already have Forza on ps5 but I’d double dip on switch 2 just to have it portable. Let’s hope it happens!

Love the image on the Japanese one but the layout is terrible.

One point that not many are mentioning is the pro controller.

It’s absolutely bangin, what a controller. I miss it when I go back to my dualsense and is possibly becoming my favourite of all!

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.
