Still Kunitsu-Gami and Forza Horizon 5.

May load up ToTK as I never got that far on Switch 1 and need to give it more of a chance. I loved BoTW but for some reason got bored quick of its sequel.

@HaNks absolutely agree, this really is typical of Nintendo.

Man these new ads on NintendoLife (mobile) are intrusive 😐

@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.

Even better I’d just like to be able to buy whichever games I want.

Yeah if it’s going to Xbox it should go to switch 2 also.

Nintendo seem to be really slow getting these dev kits out. Seems strange.

The game looks great I just can’t get my head around pacman being in it!

The game I got my S2 for. Bring it on!

Edit: @NorrinRadd you beat me to it 😅

They both deny it yet no Nintendo products are sold direct on amazon US lol.

It would be nice if Nintendo gave the option to have 3 lap normal races.

I guess they spent so much time creating the world that they want people to see it!

Absolutely loved star wars outlaws on ps5. Glad it’s coming to S2 and may even double dip!

Only played MK World and Kunitsu-Gami on my S2 so far so my vote goes to the latter. For now!

I take it Mario Wonder is improved too? Don’t think I’ve seen anything on improvement on that one…

Kunitsu-Gami on Switch 2 and Forza Horizon 5 on PS5 for me, same as last weekend!

@sethfranum haha yeah probably at least a little bit of truth to that 😂

Yeah I had to opt for a 256gb sandisk as I couldn’t find anything bigger in the uk.

I hope the switch 2 sells so well it makes these a bit more common. Would have preferred a 512gb or 1tb to be honest.

That graph is both hilarious and sad. Hope the EA execs see this and feel a little bit of guilt.

The CEO could distribute just one of his 31m to staff as a nice gesture and likely wouldn’t even notice it was gone.

That seems a clearly obvious oversight. Strange decision this game looks made for local multiplayer.

Playing through this now and really enjoying it. It’s quite original and love the setting. Hope more people play it!

Yoshi’s Island is brilliant but remember he turned up at the end of Mario 64 so just for that it should be No.1 😂

@Bigmanfan curious - what book would you like to see ray reading in a splatoon game?

Really enjoying Kunitsu-Gami so far, it’s really original but I’m not sure I agree it’s a visual stunner. Maybe I’ve been on my ps5 pro too much recently!

Nintendo - the company that love to delight and confuse.

Shame this isn’t the wavebird. Loved that controller and batteries lasted weeks!

Luckily I play mine mostly docked but have to say this is a little disappointing.

@slytherin_real @Acid87 ah ok thanks for the info!

Am I right in thinking there are two manufacturers of the switch 2 screen and one is better than the other?

@WhiteUmbrella interesting. Are you a lawyer by any chance?

Haha the cables are a minor point but I did agree with him when I tried to set my S2 up the first time!

Love these letters, it does take me back to reading them in magazines all those years ago!

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!

“this is probably a slip up.”

I mean it IS a slip up, the game’s not out now…

@sanderev that'a crazy but it actually outsold them in its first week!

Yep old games and key cards wouldn’t have helped.

Pre ordered as soon as it was available and so glad I did!

Hah they’re trolling us

Loved this on PS5, it’d make a great addition to the S2 library!

So far nothing I’ve noticed but with this and the earlier battery swelling article I’m going to inspect it properly as soon as I get home from work as I’m now a bit paranoid! 😂

I was surprised Nintendo didn’t add more padding on the new dock seeing as dock scratch issues were reported for the OG switch…

Not played free roam much and while it’s a novelty it hasn’t really drawn me in much so far.

I’m sure Nintendo will improve on it over time with MK8 style updates though.

Excellent. While this looks great to me I hope we see some actual platforming gameplay and it’s not all about smashing the world up. That’s my only concern.

@Miu ah I see. We still seem to agree though as I’m saying I didn’t appreciate a smaller battery and would prefer it bigger.

@Miu not sure when you last went to the optician my friend though maybe a visit may be worth it?

I said I’d rather have had a 1-2mm thicker device to house a higher capacity battery so agree with you 😁

No email for me but if they’re looking for feedback I’d say:

-would have preferred 1-2mm thicker system to house a higher capacity battery. Also the pro controller having 20% smaller battery isn’t appreciated especially in a higher cost device.
-love the extra horsepower under the hood and increased size of the screen.
-higher game prices means I’ll buy less games overall. Does the extra profit per unit cover the loss of lower volume of sales?
-appreciate the faster loading and speedier UI.

Can’t wait for this and pre order is in!

For me the PS5 and switch 2 is the perfect step up for gaming. Grateful for both of them equally!

Wow 27% of the total Wii u user base is impressive. Will be interesting to see the momentum that follows considering its higher price.

Happy with mine and glad they didn’t reinvent the wheel for the sake of it.

Loving mine so far though would have preferred they made it 1mm thicker to house a higher capacity battery.

Maybe there’ll be an upgraded battery version like before…?

@Damo thanks Damo 🙏

Loved remake and this has just reminded me I need to get back to finishing rebirth.
