I honestly don't like that. The cartridges won't be much bigger than the Switchs so why use a bigger box?

Probably just to catch the attention of the customer at retail but for the enduser their is no real benefit to make them bigger

I just want Wario Colosseum back

Can't be much worse than the actual Mario Strikers on Switch

Can't get accepted if I don't apply to begin with
Sadly there is no event close to me

Switch 1 launched about 2 months after its big presentation so I hope the Switch 2 launches about 2 months after the April Direct, therefore end of May / June

As a game? 9
As a 60$ remaster? 6 or 7 I guess

@PikminMarioKirby True, but thb the 3DS had also the amazing feature of launching with no notable games

If Nintendo launches the Switch 2 with games like MK9, new 3D Mario, Metroid Prime 4 as launch titles / launch window titles more people would be willing to pay a higher price

Since the design of the console etc already has been leaked it was just meh. At least they showed a new Mario Kart

The reveal trailer for the Switch 1 was way better

I want Xenoblade Chronicles 2 at a good resolution (720p or even 1080p) in handheld mode

Is it just me or does that shot where they zoom the camera out give off open world wipes?

This will be painful 2.5 months

Oh man, and I'm not home for another 2 hours

Anyway, Nintendo is the only one who'd shadow drop the reveal of their next gen system

Donkey Kong Country Returns For The Third Time

Obviously that's not Wii Sports

Wii Sports looks better

I haven't played much Animal Crossing so if you'd tell me that this is Animal Crossing I'd 100% believe it

@chapuH I assume it's like the Switch reveal trailer where they did show off the console but also teased games like Super Mario Odyssey and MK8DX

@glennthefrog Yeah, if it is the actual logo they truly learned from the Wii U situation

Never played Halo but would give it a try if it actually comes to Switch 2

One of the best open world games imo
And the new area they teased at the end look pretty cool

@VoidofLight The difference is that in the past the systems were to different or the graphical jump to high were it didn't make sense to do cross gen

GB to GBA: 8 bit on GB to 32 bit on GBA. They basically would have to remake the game at that point

GBA to DS: 2D on GBA to a 2.5D on DS. Also the DS had two screens unlike the GBA so they would have had to redo the menues

DS to 3DS: 2.5D on DS to 3D on 3DS

3DS to Switch: The Switch has only one screen unlike the 3DS so they would need to redo the menus etc

But the Switch 2 is most likely just a more powerful Switch so just increase the resolution, framerate and maybe better graphic settings and they'd have a next gen version

To small for me. I want a handheld that is bigger than my 55 inch TV

"Given that the battery compartment for the Switch 2 is surprisingly small, this might actually put the Switch 2 at a slight disadvantage against the likes of the Steam Deck from an efficiency standpoint."

Well that would be horrible because the battery life of the Steam Deck is absolutely garbage (in more demanding games)

We got Minecraft 2 before GTA 6

@Bluelink45 I think DLSS looks great
I tried games like CP2077 at 4k with DLSS Balanced/Performance and I could barely tell a difference to native 4k, it looks that good imo

DLSS would be a godsend for the Switch 2

I hope we get to see some of SEs games the Switch missed out on like FF15, FF7 Remake and maybe FF16 and FF7 Rebirth (if technically possible) on Switch 2

Nintendo: "No, I don't think it will"

Only 145h this year which is less than TotK alone last year, with the top one being M&L: Brothership with 45h

But not surprising tbh, not that many releases that interested me this year + some of them I played on Steam Deck instead

I'm sure next year it will be a lot more though when the Switch 2, XCX:DE, MP4 and Legends Z-A + unannounced Switch 2 games release

@DarkTron Exactly my first thought. I read the title and thought "Haven't others already beaten it before?"

@Bolt_Strike "they need a unique hook to stand out"
That unique hook is being a Nintendo console with Nintendo games on it

Let's be honest, 95% of all people who own a Switch don't even know what a Steam Deck, ROG Ally, Lenovo Go etc is and would much rather just buy a Switch 2 than any of those

I mean as long as it runs on the Series S it might also run on the Switch 2

Wasn't there supposed to be news on the Bravely Default series this year? Since there hasn't been any yet (unless I missed it) I think TGA would be a good place for that. Especially since BD2 was announced at TGA

I get that it can be annoying if someone requests changes often but it's their IP after all so it's weird to say that they should "go away"

I hope Nintendo isn't considering giving up on M&L again if Sony actually aquires the studio

I really enjoyed Brothership. It may not be the best M&L but it is a very solid entry, would put it on a same level as Dream Team

I'd honestly be perfectly fine with just a more powerful Switch

Also I really disliked the touchpad on the back of the Vita

@JohnnyMind On amazon.de the 1.5tb micro sd is 96€
Don't know if there are shipping costs to italy though

@Lofoten Because "Nintendo bad". I've seen people use that as their excuse so many times

@DarkFighter You should play more games then

That's honestly very disappointing sales numbers for Mario & Luigi: Brothership

I hope it at least sells well in the rest of the world cause I don't want ot go another 9 years without a new entry

@the_beaver Well, it is the same publication that gave Sonic Mania a 32/40 while giving Sonic Forces a 35/40 after all

I don't get how people are able to play 3D open world games with action combat like Genshin, Wuthering Waves or this on a smartphone.

I couldn't imagine playing such a game with a touchscreen instead of a controller

Haven't beaten it yet (only 14h in) but I'm really enjoying it so far. Huge step up from Paper Jam

Also I don't get some complains I've heard like that it's way to hand holdy or performance issues. Maybe later areas are more demanding but so far I didn't have any (noticeable) framedrops

There are stupid people and then there's this guy

What did he expect to happen from a company who's known to go harshly against emulators & pirated games?

Threw me off at first as well but I got used to it pretty quickly so no big deal

I hope the games also run better as well, even without an update for the game that takes advantage of the more powerful hardware

Constant 30fps in games like Pokemon SV or TotK or constant 720p in XC2 (which runs somewhere between 540p-720p) would be nice

Updates that allow those game to run at higher res and framerate would be more than welcome though

The more people realize that Xenoblade Chronicles is one of the best series out there the better

Honestly the biggest disappointment of the year for me

Over the years I've heard so many times how amazing the game appearently is, also people always claimed that it is way better than Color Splash and Origami King (both games I really enjoyed)

But for me it just didn't live up to the expectations I had because of that, I actually ended up dropping the game in chapter 6 because the game simply bored me to death

@contractcooker Everything made by GameFreak is a mainline Pokemon imo

Especially since it will most likely include new Pokemon and forms like Legends Arceus

Kinda weird that we haven't seen anything about Legends Z-A in over 8 months. This must be the longest timespan between reveal and the first proper trailer for any (mainline) Pokemon game. I mean there have been Pokemon games where the timespan between announcement and actual release was shorter than that

I assume they safe the gameplay reveal til after the Switch 2 has been announced cause otherwise I don't see why they wouldn't show anything at all for that long

Do japanese people not like Sonic? Those are horrible numbers

@JR150 Didn't it sell 1mio copies within it's first day? I'd say that very good, just not in the japanese market

The lack of Xenoblade music should be a crime
