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!
Playing great games from really talented creators like Yacht Club that take insipiration from Nintendo 's greats, make me reappreciate and fully understand just how influential they are to the industry and culture in general.
Also, anyone who has access on Steam,should try Amid Evil.Another excellent retro shooter from the same publisher,that is planned for a Switch release at some point!
I have been waiting patiently for long for this to come to Switch.I have even turned down a good sale on Steam.Happy I did,it plays like a dream,probably my favorite shooter on Switch!

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.

This list is all over the place.

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!

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!
Re: Feature: "Shovel Knight Feels Like Our 'Mario', But We Kept Wondering What Our 'Zelda' Might Be"
Playing great games from really talented creators like Yacht Club that take insipiration from Nintendo 's greats, make me reappreciate and fully understand just how influential they are to the industry and culture in general.
Re: Poll: Pokémon Legends: Arceus Is Out Today On Switch, Are You Getting It?
This will be my first Pokémon game ever and I am excited for it!
Re: Metacritic Reveals The Highest-Scoring Nintendo Switch Games Of 2021
11/13, some on another platform.
Re: Feature: Game Of The Year 2021 - Nintendo Life Staff Awards
Monster Hunter Rise should be higher imo.
Re: Nintendo Download: 16th December (Europe)
Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon is just sooo good! Has all the depth and charm that the studio is well known for!

Mine says it's up to date, at v. 1.04
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (November 20th)
Halo Infinite nonstop!
Re: Rockstar Apologises For GTA Trilogy Issues, First Of Multiple Updates Due In 'Coming Days'
I don't even know if they can fix it. These games are based on the mobile ports, not the originals. So, the foundation is kind of crap anyway.
Re: Feature: Nintendo Life eShop Selects - October 2021
I would get Disco Elysium, even if it was on Steam sales, if the performance was better. Dusk and Tetris are amazing though!

"Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games And Accessories For November And December 2021", is the article's title.
Re: Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games And Accessories For November And December 2021
Doesn't the GTA Trilogy warrant a mention here?
