I knew this would come eventually to Switch, but couldn't wait and bought it on Steam. It's fantastic and will buy again just for the portability factor.
The game is fantastic and it evokes that childish feeling of excitement when you are about to experience something truly special! Amiibos should go along with the release of the game, to compliment that feeling.
I don't think that this is a bad game or anything, but I am having some difficulties justifying to myself paying upwards of 60 for pretty much the same game with 30fps - I can't see it as so demanding, and no physical card.
My facts are not subjective as you try to make them. You clearly have a certain point of view of things, life and society, which is fine. But making this personal and coming to a gaming site to make statements and pass judgement is not.
@Shambo The only one assuming and jumping to conclusions here is you. I only mentioned facts as you made them. Don't judge people based on your preferences and try not to put politics here.
Monkey Island came out great and curries a special weight for a lot of us. Shovel Knight has become synonym of quality for every game they make. Tunic is fantastic and exactly the kind of game that belongs to a Nintendo platform.
I actually prefer the placement of the dpad and left stick like this. And since I held off buying the otherwise excellent previous model, I might as well get this!
Although I am old (44), I was primeraly a home computer/PC gamer during my youth. I disovered Nintendo during the late Gamecube life, which I bought to play Resident Evil 4! First Zelda game for me was Wind Waker, which blew me away! Then I worked my way to Zeldas old and new.
Let's hope Nintendo doesn't change the winning formula with their next hardware. A more powerful console with some quality of life improvements would be enough!

Re: Hands On: Is Final Fantasy VII Rebirth's Switch 2 Port The Most Ambitious Yet?
I got this first on Steam anyway. Now it is on hold, till I finish Intergrade on Switch.
Re: Review: Mouse: P.I. For Hire (Switch 2) - A Bold, Risk-Taking FPS, And A Fine Achievement
No motion controls and sub 60 fps made me get it on Steam. Game is great though.
Re: Gallery: Fangamer's UFO 50 Deluxe Edition Is Packed With Nostalgic Goodness
Didn't hold for long and purchased the book!
Re: Gallery: Fangamer's UFO 50 Deluxe Edition Is Packed With Nostalgic Goodness
I really want the book!
Re: Feature: Nintendo Life eShop Selects (March 2026)
Deadzone rogue should definitely have a spot in this list.
Re: Mewgenics Switch 2 Version Teased By Co-Creator
I knew this would come eventually to Switch, but couldn't wait and bought it on Steam. It's fantastic and will buy again just for the portability factor.
Re: Review: Kena: Bridge Of Spirits (Switch 2) - Old-School Platformer Offers Sumptuous Visuals & Heaps Of Charm
Great game on PC. I am tempted for getting this again.
Re: Anime-Inspired FPS 'Mullet Madjack' Hits Switch In April, And It Looks Like A Lot
Have it on Steam. If it has gyro controls well implemented, I'll double dip!
Re: Feature: Where The Heck Do You Start If You've Never Played Resident Evil?
I would suggest the exact same. RE2 remake. And you're in for a treat!
Re: Rotwood Brings Serious Absolum Vibes With A Shadow Drop On Switch 2
I like the look of it, but its price keeps me away for now.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (28th February)
I an gonna be playing what the rest of people will be playing, without even seeing the comments!
Re: Resident Evil Requiem Day One Patch And amiibo Release Date Confirmed
The game is fantastic and it evokes that childish feeling of excitement when you are about to experience something truly special! Amiibos should go along with the release of the game, to compliment that feeling.
Re: Nintendo Download: 12th February (North America)
I want to get Reanimal, but not at this price, given its length.
Re: Marvel Cosmic Invasion "Bug-Blasting Patch" Update For Switch And Switch 2 Now Live
My concern is that they should include an upgrade to Switch 2 version, cause I accidentally bought the Switch 1!
Re: Kirby Air Riders Dev Team Disbanding Soon, Game Updates Also Ending
@Zeeba
Your comment adds nothing of value. If you wish to purchase it, that's fine. I express a personal opinion.
Re: Kirby Air Riders Dev Team Disbanding Soon, Game Updates Also Ending
The game is way too expensive for the content and the support it got.
Re: Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition Performance And Resolution Revealed
This meets and exceeds my expectations! I will happily buy!
Re: Feature: Nintendo Life eShop Selects (October 2025)
All of the top three games this month are amazing!
Re: Takashi Iizuka Explains Why Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds Was Delayed On Switch 2
Did like the game, but didn't like the Switch version. 60 fps /1080p at least on Switch 2 is what I am waiting for.
Re: Review: EA SPORTS FC 26 (Switch 2) - A Fantastic Football Game, Once You're Used To The Frame Rate
I don't think that this is a bad game or anything, but I am having some difficulties justifying to myself paying upwards of 60 for pretty much the same game with 30fps - I can't see it as so demanding, and no physical card.
Re: Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 Gets A Seven-Minute Overview Trailer
That's 10€ per minute.
Re: Another Switch Game Just Got A Free Switch 2 Upgrade - Includes Higher Frame Rate, Enhanced Resolution And More
Although the exception to this should be the default, this seems to become a good business practice to give games a second chance to sell.
Re: Best Nintendo Switch 2 Gaming Headsets
I actually bought the Austrian Audio X25 for using them with my Switch 2 mainly!
Re: Switch 2 eShop "Top-Selling" Games At Launch Revealed
Fast Fusion is fantastic in performance, value and gameplay. It deserves a place in every Switch 2.
Re: Batman Arkham Trilogy For Switch Has Been Delayed Until December
This is kind of a relief actually. Not enough money for this month 's games!
Re: Disney's Gargoyles Remastered Brings Sega Genesis Classic To Switch This October
I am all in for a remaster of a classic game, but this looks cheap beyond my limit.
Re: Best Nintendo Switch Graphics - The Most Beautiful Switch Games
This list is all over the place.
Re: Exclusive: 'Tiny Thor', A Gorgeous 16-Bit-Style Platformer, Announced For Switch
Indeed, this looks amazing. Will get day 1!
Re: Review: Persona 4 Golden - A Must-Buy Classic That's Stood The Test Of Time
Easily the best JRPG I've played, without counting Persona 5 which I have not finished yet.
Re: Return To Monkey Island Sets Sail For Physical Release
I own the game, but I feel so tempted to buy the Collector's edition!
Re: Feature: Nintendo Life's Alternative Game Awards 2022
As far as soundtrack goes, Olliolli World and Persona 5 should definitely be in there.
Re: Video: Nintendo Land Will Likely Never Come To Switch, But That's Okay
@NicolausCamp
You need to chill dude.
Re: Video: Nintendo Land Will Likely Never Come To Switch, But That's Okay
Do not touch this game. It belongs to the handful of people, me included, that actually bought the console and had fun with it!
Re: Poll: What Was The Best Wii U Launch Game?
Nintendoland great as it was, my vote goes to Zombi U. Great use of the game pad and a blast to play!
Re: Feature: Nintendo eShop Selects - October 2022
Prodeus and Signalis for me. Own the first on Steam and the second on game pass, but will get both later on a sale!

@Shambo
The irony here seems that you have too much free time and no desire for work.
Re: Feature: Nintendo eShop Selects - September 2022
Monkey Island came out great and curries a special weight for a lot of us. Shovel Knight has become synonym of quality for every game they make. Tunic is fantastic and exactly the kind of game that belongs to a Nintendo platform.
Re: Old-School DOOM-Like FPS Prodeus Delayed For Nintendo Switch
This game is so good that although I do have game pass, I bought it on Steam. When it will have gyro support, I will get it on Switch also.
Re: Tunic Is Confirmed For Switch, And It's Coming Very Soon
The game is amazing, played it on Game Pass. I doubt I would buy it again, but for anyone else, this is a no brainer.
*I would double dip for a physical version with that awesome manual included!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (September 3rd)
Gonna play Elden Ring as much as I can!
Re: 8BitDo Reveals New 'Ultimate' Controller Range, Compatible With Switch
I actually prefer the placement of the dpad and left stick like this. And since I held off buying the otherwise excellent previous model, I might as well get this!
Re: Review: Cursed To Golf - A Spooky Roguelike That's More Than Up To Par
There is a demo on Steam for anyone with access to a PC.
Re: Talking Point: What Was Your First Legend Of Zelda Game?
Although I am old (44), I was primeraly a home computer/PC gamer during my youth. I disovered Nintendo during the late Gamecube life, which I bought to play Resident Evil 4! First Zelda game for me was Wind Waker, which blew me away! Then I worked my way to Zeldas old and new.
Re: Owlboy Devs Move From Birds To Vikings In Its Bouncy Co-Op Follow-Up
The art looks fantastic! And it has some of the wicky charm of Rayman. I am sold.
Re: Nintendo Switch Sales Surpass 111 Million
Let's hope Nintendo doesn't change the winning formula with their next hardware. A more powerful console with some quality of life improvements would be enough!
Re: Logitech And Tencent Games Are Working On A Cloud-Based Handheld Console
Cloud based, no. But Microsoft could do a similar handheld to Steam Deck and be really successful with a Game Pass subscription to go with it.
Re: Feature: 24 Game Boy Advance Games We'd Love To See Added To Nintendo Switch Online
Out of those games, Warioland 4 is by far my favorite and I hope it gets a new installment! And why not in 3D!
Re: Nintendo Download: 24th March (North America)
Ordered Kirby physical and waiting for it to arrive!
