Another PAL region skipped game. I do own the PS1 version, but don't have the console to play it on. So this will be the first time getting to play these, really looking forward to it.
I mean they could say all future content is free and/or tournaments wield real prizes and/or you don't need an online membership to play online? (Not sure that was mentioned, only for the voice chat)
I bought Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Duluxe and the online subscription, that's someway over the 80£ mark.
We're at a stage in gaming where there's no longer that big jump. 3D era, HD era, Internet era, etc. We just have to be more excited over performance now.
I'm generally baffled that comments about this game make it sound unplayable. I had a okay experience with it, frame drops and a few weird NPC stuff, but other than that it was fine.
FF7R2 and Intergrade were the only things making me want a PS5 (want physical copies). This news means I probably won't have to get a PS5 at all now. All comes down to whether FF7R2 and FF7R3 come to Switch 2.
I think that's fair.
We kind of have a idea what to expect from Switch 2, more power, bigger games, some new features.
Like people saying, it's been a while since the last game.
When you said ex-Nintendo duo, I knew it would be these two... Mario Kart Switch 2 will dunk and break the board, they're just saying the opposite for attention.
This is the norm now. Use someone else's idea, make some money, get called out, use sob story, make a bit more money. Which was likely the plan from the beginning.
I've been looking on Amazon for weeks waiting to pre-order this and I couldn't find it. All because I was looking for Lunar Silver Star instead of Lunar Remastered... Pre-ordered.
I'm not a gambler, but if I was a publisher, I would have put resource on getting my games on Switch consoles rather than goofing about with timed exclusives for PS4/5 or PC thinking that'll pay off.
A few mates follow this story and between the weird antics and rants of the guy in charge and that the entire engine being rebuild, not to mention no footage... I'll be surprised to see FM26 this year.
Echoing what someone has already said. It'll be the hard workers heads on the chopping block, not the executives making the horrible executive decisions.

I haven't made a successful trade. Whole thing is pointless.

Re: Nintendo Shuts Down Live-Action Zelda Fan Film, 'Lost In Hyrule'
Starting something they knew Nintendo would shutdown felt off already.
I think we'll see more of this and then once the inevitable happens, play the sympathy card, call Nintendo out.
Other ways to skin a cat.
