@Dimey also new first party ps5 games are expansive as new first party switch games.

@Dimey Almost. there are Street Fighter 6 comparisons on youtube, there is not a big difference.
some reporters said that cyber punk runs better on switch 2 than on series S.

there was already not a big graphical step from ps4 to 5 and the step between switch 2 to ps5 is even smaller because the switch has dlss and ray tracing.

@johnvboy but you know that almost all countries around the world had inflation like the US did?

@Dimey why whats the problem? switch 2 games look almost as good as ps5 games and are portable. And you can expect one first party game from Nintendo each month instead of two a year or so...
I personally even think that since the ps4 gen, we don't need any better looking hardware anymore

@GoldenSunRM I agree... I think the system and the games announced are freaking awesome and that should be celebrated.

not saying you can't talk about the pricing, i think thats important too, but the pricing of the system is not a deal breaker. if its now 450 instead of 400... if you can effort 400 you can effort 450 too.

@Dimey thats not a fair comparison since the switch has no equivalent to an all digital system, so you have to compare it to the one with a drive, then the comparison looks quite different.
you can add to that, that the ps5 is half through its lifecycle and will in some years be outdated

@Medic_alert they said the eshop now runs smooth and they added stuff like "recommended games".

Regarding drift we have to see but they said they developed a new technologie for the sticks. I also have had 3 switches so far and since the OLED i had no drift anymore, so they have improved on this during the switch 1s lifecycle.

@datamonkey the system itself is actually extremely cheap. there is so much tech in it and it's portable... non of the portable competitors have a cheaper price with the same tech...
even If you buy the steam deck with the same ssd, as soon as you add the dock your again on a higher price with worse looking games and no joy con.

the only issue the system has are the high physical game prices and they are on the same level as all other systems.

@Cheez don't forget that EU prices are tax included and US prices aren't

I personaly think the switch 2 is brilliant.
the hardware is full of awesome new tech and the price of 450 is actually pretty excellent.
they fixed pretty much all the issues of the switch 1. be it the chat system, the shop, joy con drift or build in microphone, headphone slot on the pro controller and many more things.

Also the announced games seem almost to good to be true.

I wasn't that hyped for games stuff in a very very long time.

I was only slightly interested in the game but CDPR is so awesome towards the fans, I have to support this .
No other third party studio would make the game fully on cartridge

i was so excited for this but now I'm skipping

@PharoneTheGnome
It doesn't matter if you pay american wages or the taxes... if you produce in the US it's going to be more expansive compared to china or vietnam

I'm sorry for all americans who didn't vote for the orange troll.

i like the new DK as much as the old one. he look wild

i hope they will add a section with similar titles to every game page

everyone: "how fast can you produce trails games?"
falcom:"Yes!"

@prw_88
I find it hard to believe that it won't be successful... nintendo really needs to mess it up for it.
I believe everyone is just craving for the switch 2 and in the first year it will sell crazy numbers. If it's going to have a long tail, we have to see. Another Animal Crossing combined with a pandemic is unlikely

Man so many analysts here, I'm one too btw...
I said the whole time the system is going to cost between 400 and 500 bucks...
It will also release this year!
There will be games on it from Nintendo as well as from other companies.

@Daniel36 Try any of the others ones, in my opinion 2 is by far the worste (even though it's still good in my opinion)

@TCKuma
I can more or less agree on this.
Just one note, be careful when you go into X. Do not expect it to be the other games. The story is cool but it's mission based and you often have to do side missions in order to continue with the main missions.
Anyway if you are there for the exploration you might get one of the best open world games

Would look good as a Switch 2 launch title I guess

I prefer a proper port with the DS bonus content to a remake. why? because Square Enix ruins 9/10 remakes. (on the other hand they also ruin 9/10 ports )

still not a fan.
I think the ? Block was a great set but besides that I couldn't get warm with any nintendo set so far.

I hope we will see a bit of what they are cooking at the switch 2 direct.
I hope they do not hire any game designers or writers from Square Enix, since they are not on the level of Monolith in my opinion.

@JustMonika
Expect those imports to be 20% more expansive soon .

@Ultimapunch
I think the only reason Trump is making those tariffs is to pressure other countries to obey the US. He doesn't want to have those tariffs for a long time he just want to have a lever in other negotiations. BUT I think he is misjudging this and this will come back like a boomerang. All of the US allies are already upset and are gonna prepare counter actions. This is just not helping anyone.
I believe in people should tread other people with kindness and with respect and Trumps politic is the opposite of this. Only hate hate and more hate... I'm pretty sure mankind don't needs this.

man I'm so excited to go back to Mira once again .

@MrCarlos46 thanks for pointing out. I could have bet they were made in china. its still possible that parts of them were made in china but not sure if it's effected by tarifs then

@TenEighty I know I'm not able to convince you from the opposite but maybe I can convince you to look in your arguments more deeply.
First of all not every thing that happens during a presidents time is caused by that president. Also some decisions he made might have caused an effect after his period.
That the US and most of the rest of the world had an inflation had nothing to do with anyone in the white house.

All economic scientist say having tarifs is bad for the consumers. That the US is exporting less than they import is partly also a problem of the items they sell. if americans wouldn't order that much trash from temu or amazon it would help already. and that no one wants american cars except of tesla is just because others make better once.

@MrCarlos46 they are produced in china not japan

their year was not great last year.
too many okish games

i wish they would have made the graphics as good as in the mobile game for the remaster

always expect nothing if you go into a pkm presents. usually its lots of mobile game updates and some cash grab stuff like classic edition pkm cards for insane prices.

man it's very hard to see any difference at all except of the new faces

if the switch version would run better I'm sure more people would have bought it.
I hope for a switch 2 version of civ

i love the miiverse but it had some flaws

Kid: Mum can we have Castlevania?

Mum: We have Castlevania at home

Castlevania at home -> Chronicles of the Wolf

@Serpenterror
they might sell more game if they would not scare away core gamers with a horrible store.
Some people just stopped using the store.

and if they do not limit the scam than they should implement an algorithm like steam does. there you have at least as much scam as on the switch but you will never even see it.

it's really the worst thing about the switch...
I have zero confidents that the switch 2 has a better eshop.

so we can assume that 9% of the people just clicked the wrong button by accident right ?

its very unlikely that until the switch 2 direct Nintendo is only going to highlight xenoblade.
So yes , direct next week sounds realistic to me

I still going to buy as much as possible physical.

would be interesting to see how this chart looks like for switch only.

I always thought earthblade looks a bit generic. Not bad but also somehow like I have seen this sort of game already 100 times.
I think this split might be a good thing.

After the reviews people are biased anyway

why do people believe that more racers would make the game better

I love that guy

@Reztobi haha sorry but you can't believe that Ubisoft is the reason that the industry is in a crisis? It's not a good thing that tencent is now taking over. why would you want one of the biggest and most creedy companies in the world, controlled by a corrupt dictatorship country to take over?

I think emulation is great but there is no reason to emulate current gen hardware. 99% or more of the people who use current gen emulation are also pirates.

if its the same as the 2010 one how can it be a 7/10.
anyways I'm salty the didn't fix all the graphical issues, so I likely not gonna buy it

@jesse_dylan why do you think it's overrated?
