I really appreciate the physical versions of digital only games. I try to grab them physically whenever possible.

I had this one in my PlayAsia cart. Glad I didn't pull the trigger on buying it just yet.

I do find it quite hilarious that Hades 2 taking second place is a "blinder", when it is literally the highest rated new game this year. The only games to match it were LoZ: BotW and TotK Switch 2 Editions.

Why did Death Stranding 2 (we all know how 🙄) and Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 get nominations when they both reviewed worse than Split Fiction? Split Fiction reviewed better both of them and better than their previous game that won GOTY. We all know it SHOULD be the best reviewed game of the year, Hades 2, but it WILL be Clair Obscur: E33.

Around X and Y. That's when content started largely going missing, no post game, no third game, etc. Sun and Moon hit a new low with the Ultra games. Sword and Shield was a step up from those, but was marred by a poor story, poor post-game, TPC double dipping wallets for DLC, and so-so graphics. Scarlet and Violet were a new low in performance and graphics, performing even worse than Legends Arceus, and a step back in mechanics compared to LA.

@spiderman0616 My thoughts exactly. Glad to see the haters drowned out with the sales.

@Galaxy2IsTheGOAT Don't discount the chances yet. Sony is becoming weirdly open to releasing on other systems, and something tells me they would like to best Mario at Mario on it's home system. Similar to Sonic aiming at the Mario Kart crown.

I'll accept a delay to release a perfect port. Now make an actual physical version, too.

I'm having a blast. I gave it a 9. My only real gripe is the lack of a bike, skates, or Pokémon riding.

I cam here to complain that "Sucker Punch sucker punches Mario Galaxy" was not the name of this article. What kind of journalism is this?!

@FishyS I see it now. Though I think it's supposed to represent Sonic more than Sega.

Also, who decided to make this article PlayStation colored?

We can all like what we like. But hopefully the pollster can accept that the majority know he's wrong. MK8D>MKW>SRC

I think it's just PR speak trying to control the narrative. I'll be the first to admit that I am not a developer, coder, computer whiz, etc., but don't PS4, PS5, XB1, and XBS games all download to and then run off of system memory? What does "disc streaming" have to do with that?

@Synecdoche Fair enough. But someone's gotta be the scapegoat to blame for all the naughty games.

Uh oh, I can feel an internet firestorm brewing. I'm not getting a key card, but I will be getting this game at some point.

I'm not the most enthusiastic when HD-2D comes up, but I don't think it is overdone just yet. There are as many HD-2D games out there as people seem to want to believe. I think it's just the games that they made or remastered don't interest me as much as the ones I wish they would make. Like HD-2D Pokémon, Breath of Fire, or Zelda.

@Ravenmaster Yep. And the gaming media will eat it up and collectively disparage Nintendo until the competitor inevitably fails. That's exactly what happened with the PSP, Vita, and Steam Deck. The PSP was at least successful, it just failed to defeat the DS. The Vita failed completely and the Steam Deck is basically a lost cause.

I'll pass. With Sony's poor showing and lack of support on the Vita, I'm surprised they are even trying. The appeal of the Switch is the hybrid nature of it, giving the best of both worlds from handhelds and home consoles in one. They can barely support their VR peripheral for the PS4/5, and they failed miserably on the Vita. They probably won't be able to effectively support a new handheld/Hybrid.

@HugoGED Exactly. It feels like a waste of time and money for a device no one is going to buy. Like Apple's VR headset.

Also, don't games have to support 3D effects for this to work, and didn't the New 3DS have eye tracking?

This feels like a "Tony Stark built this in a cave... with a box of scraps!" moment. $1700 in 2025 to do what the 3DS did for $250 nearly a decade and a half ago is laughable. I don't care what resolution the screen is or what's under the hood. It should not be $1700. And don't even get me started on those cybertuck-esque fauxcon attached to it.

It annoys me when people say eks or cross unnecessarily. There are times when it is needed, like Xenoblade X (cross) or Street Fighter X (cross) Tekken. Other than that, names like Sonic X Shadow, Spy X Family, and Hunter X Hunter should just skip it completely.

@Gatorclops You are correct. Some people just can't admit when they are wrong. They double down on their ignorance. My fellow Americans are shining examples of it.

It's pronounced like quasar. Kway is de way. Some of you are just bad at pronunciation. Most of you it seems...

The hardest part of that port would be selling it if they put it on a key card.

I'll probably grab this one at some point. It looks very Doom-y.

I'll never understand why these demo never make their way to the eshop. Exposure before release is literally the whole point of allowing game demos on the eshop.

And no one say it's not possible. The 3DS also had demos, including for Pokémon games.

Miraidon is the superior steed. But the ancient Pokémon look sooooo much cooler.

I'm getting "My Uncle works at Nintendo" vibes from this one.

I think Yakuza, Persona, Monster Hunter Stories, Sparking Zero, and Octopath Traveler alone warrant at least a 7/10. People are being way too picky nowadays. We're closing in on 2 months of Switch 2. Please stop acting like there is nothing at all to play.

@Metazoxan Exactly. If they don't want to put the game on a Switch 2 cartridge, the least they could do would be to give us an upgrade path. Rune Factory had the right idea putting both versions on a single Switch 2 cart.

Another game to buy on a steep eshop discount. I'm not getting any key cards if I can help it.

@Lizuka My thoughts exactly. They should've just dropped a new trailer in a Nintendo Ditect and been done with it. A whole Presents for Mega Dragonite and some app games was rude.

@Aphonic Sterner stuff, for one thing. Also, it's obviously a joke. We're all limp-wristed basement dwellers with back problems. Some of us just don't get motion sickness and some of us do, no big deal.

Most of us are made of sterner stuff, it seems.

Big DK energy is the vibe for today.

@RudyC3 Exactly. It's from those "aside from Nintendo's 20+ exclusives, I don't even play Nintendo games" type people. They don't hear themselves sometimes. Nintendo is the company we most see in these types of headlines because people want to play their games so much.

Serves them right. The "I don't agree to your terms, so I'll just steal it" people are just asking for legal trouble, jail time, flogging, etc.

It will be very interesting to see the first year sales.

I remember some youtubers deleting and privating videos after the truth came out. It was a clowny time.

I hope he makes a lot from his channel, because i would've just bought a Switch OLED. 🤷🏽‍♂️

I keep posting this to whoever will listen:
Hitman, Split Fiction, Street Fighter, Yakuza, Tony Hawk, Wild Hearts S, WWE, and Madden are all above 32GB, so they should have been on the 64GB cards. WWE and Split Fiction are slightly above 64GB, but that doesn't mean they couldn't have optimized them more to fit. The publishers chose to go they key card route even though the 64GB cards made sense for these games, so they deserve their low sales. Hopefully Cyberpunk 2077 does well enough to show third parties what we want.

That Capcom Spotlight was painfully underwhelming.

@sethfranum So many people seem to think they have special eyes. It's a little embarrassing, to be honest.

@sdelfin Even Digital Foundry praised the screen while lamenting it not being OLED in their preview. They needed that specialized equipment to nitpick for the review.

@sdelfin That's because no one actually sees the "issue". They had to use specialized equipment and slow it down to 11% speed to see it, just to nitpick. People claiming they can see it only after it was pointed out by DF are BSing. If it was noticeable at all by the naked eye, DF and many others would have made it known weeks/months ago. I don't have a problem with it, and most people won't. Not many people in the world are going to be arguing about milliseconds. We just want to play fun games.

The name Killswitch was a little too accurate, huh? I went with the Mumba grip and case because the Satisfye grip and case still have not arrived. Mumba is serving me pretty well, all things considered.

Isn't the Switch 2 screen 120Hz? I'm only asking because it looks like the graphic posted on Twitter has it listed as 60Hz.
