i expect to see a lot of smaller numbers going forward of switch 2 game sales of key cards if the same game is available and has a switch 1 version that can be patched for switch 2...
maybe i should not be to hasty with some key card games after all this version of the game was is to big to fit into a 64 gig switch 2 cart..but any game that is 64 gigs or less i would pay any price for it to be all on a cart..
we have seen quite a few xbox games come to ps5 and are big sellers this business strategy by xbox to port games to the ps5 is paying off for the company.
1 saw a side by side comparison with the ps5 version on youtube they look very similar except the main difference is the ps5 version runs at 60 fps..that makes a huge difference in gameplay..
this is nintendo fault these key cards for only offering 2 file sized for carts 1 gig and 64 gigs and 64 gigs carts are expensive no wonder third party companies are going key card route..
t’s worth considering the performance on the original Switch hardware, which is what this review is based on. Because the game itself is quite snappy, with multiple loading screens, there were many opportunities to become frustrated with the amount of time I was staring at a black screen, but fortunately the loading is quite minimal. Action sequences against singular bosses or smaller groups of enemies yielded a fairly consistent frame rate, but larger groups and busier animation sequences did lead to noticeable slowdown and stuttering–noticeable but not a major detraction from my enjoyment. Object pop-in is a frequent occurrence, but worse than this would be the appearance of distant villagers and even enemies, whose pace would slow to a pixelated crawl until you walked closer to them. Fortunately, there were no crashes or bugs that I encountered in my 25-plus hours. All in all, I found the experience tolerable, but it did serve as another reminder of how sorely needed the Switch 2 is at this point in time. We’ll have Switch 2 focused performance impressions closer to the console launch.
maybe xbox knows something us fans do not i mean xbox is porting games to the witch maybe this is nintendo way of returning the favor...i find it hard to imagine that all of a sudden xenoblades appears on a xbox listing... because it is a error..
@TruestoryYep Ghost of Yōtei is inspired by Sucker Punch Productions' visits to northern Japan, particularly the beauty of Mount Yōtei and the nature sounds of Shiretoko National Park. The game is set in 1603 in Ezo (modern-day Hokkaido), at the end of the Sengoku period and the beginning of the Edo period, outside of Japan's direct rule. This location, inspired by Hokkaido's less populated history, offers a different perspective on Japanese culture than games typically explore
i intend to keep my switch1console around until it stops working maybe 20 to 30 years from now i still have a old original ps2 i still play games on..and it works fine...
@Lizuka there are a lot more third party games then first party 99% of my collection are third party games they had plenty of time to fix these issues...
someone who played this game early hinted that the zenithia trilogy was mentioned in the game dragon quest 4-6.. could be the next series to be hd-2d remade..
i dunno that is quite expensive for paid dlc for this game with 2:59 you can buy yourself let me see maybe it is not to expensive afterall even a half gallon of milk cost 3:00 bucks lol..
super robot wars should not be on any top 30 list even in japan..no ghost of yotei really i guess having a woman as lead character is not welcomed in japan..
