Pokopia is really pretty amazing. I wasn't interested in it at all when I thought it was a Pokemon game. Then I saw some trailers on its launch day and decided to get it.
Yes, this is a 10/10 game and still my most played game ever. TBF, the pandemic is partly the reason but still... this game alone is worth getting the system for.
Still Hades 2. Man, this game is just freaking amazing, especially on Switch 2. On top of everything, it's 120fps docked and looks fantastic in handheld.
@Mana_Knight The stressed and sad adults realized Nintendo games actually calm their souls. 😂
Jokes aside, it's not surprising at all. Kids' access to gaming is entirely controlled by parents. Anyone who knows a little about East Asian culture would know that gaming is still seen as a lesser hobby than let's say, playing musical instrument or sports.

Re: Hades II Has Some Bonus Content Planned For Next Week
@IronMan30 I'm in the exact same situation. LOL!
And Hades II is still perfect on Switch 2. I love my PS5 but I probably won't be able to beat it if I got the game on it.

Re: Capcom Teases Okami 20th Anniversary Celebrations
I love Okami so much that whenever there's a dog or canine character in game, I name it Okami or Amaterasu.

Wish there are more big paid DLCs coming.
Re: Nintendo Remains Tight-Lipped About Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Future
I'm scared of what will happen in the world when a new AC game is released at this point. When Nintendo released
ACNH - Covid
Pokopia - WW2.5
New AC .... 🥶
Re: Opinion: Pokémon Pokopia Is Nostalgia Done Right
A spoiler warning in the title would be appreciated (not just in the content as it may be too late) still... a beautiful read.
Re: Pokémon Pokopia Sales Surpass 2.2 Million Units Globally In First Four Days
Pokopia is really pretty amazing. I wasn't interested in it at all when I thought it was a Pokemon game. Then I saw some trailers on its launch day and decided to get it.

Re: Review: Animal Crossing: New Horizons (Switch) - An Approachable And Addictive Masterpiece
Yes, this is a 10/10 game and still my most played game ever. TBF, the pandemic is partly the reason but still... this game alone is worth getting the system for.

AI is just a tool. How it's used makes all the difference.

Good job, Nintendo or whoever casted them.

@parkerdeal @Robot99 Switch 2 version runs better. You can look up the review of the Switch 2 version here, it gets 8/10.

@Rentaro Thanks for the confirmation! ❤️
Re: Trails In The Sky 1st Chapter Update Adds "Image Quality / Performance Settings" On Switch 2
@Jarodlaraus Appreciate it. I'm getting mixed info everywhere
Re: Trails In The Sky 1st Chapter Update Adds "Image Quality / Performance Settings" On Switch 2
For those who own the English version, does it have Japanese voice in the end?
Re: The ROG Xbox Ally X Receives Glowing Reviews, But It's Still Pretty Pricey
And people were complaining about Switch 2 is expensive 😒
Re: Trails In The Sky 1st Chapter Update Adding "Image Quality / Performance Settings" On Switch 2
I'm definitely coming back to get this game after I'm done with Hades 2.
Too many amazing games and too little time.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (11th October)
Still Hades 2.
Man, this game is just freaking amazing, especially on Switch 2. On top of everything, it's 120fps docked and looks fantastic in handheld.
Re: Feature: Nintendo Life eShop Selects (September 2025)
Got Hades 2 over Silksong as it's challenging yet beginners friendly due to the God Mode.
Re: More Switch Games Get Switch 2 Compatibility Fixes
@Simu001 They have nothing to do with Nintendo but the developers/publishers that made the games.
Nintendo can only be responsible for updating their own games.
Re: Review: Disgaea 7 Complete (Switch 2) - A Definitive Return For This Tactical RPG Giant

They're finally back after all these years.
Re: Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave Charges Onto Switch 2 In 2026
I'm so glad they decided to ditch the ridiculous color palettes in Engage. This looks SO much better and like a real FE game.
Love the soundtrack in the trailer too.
Re: Nintendo Life Reader Survey 2025
@nessisonett I know how you feel.
I was still in school when I first started reading NLife and middle age is waving at me not that far ahead.
Re: Poll: Three Months In, How Would You Rate Switch 2's Library So Far?
I don't know/care about the size of the library but great games, like Bananza alone, is what I bought the console for.
Together with 2 of the best cozy games in recent years, Fantasy Life i and Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar, I'm super happy with it.
Re: Review: Story Of Seasons: Grand Bazaar - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition - The Series' Best Remake Yet
@kmtrain83 Interestingly, Rune Factory started off as the spin-off of this series when it was still called Harvest Moon.
So yes, I find it hard to picture you not liking this game unless you absolutely need a game to have combat system. There's no combat in SoS games.
Re: Review: Story Of Seasons: Grand Bazaar - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition - The Series' Best Remake Yet
So happy to see another great cozy game after Fantasy Life i.
Re: Fantasy Life i's New Update Is Finally Live On Switch 1 & 2, Here Are The Full Patch Notes

@_747_ It is!
Re: Kirby Air Riders Direct: Every Announcement - How Would You Rate It?
10/10. I went from "eh...another racing game?" to "I need to play this game now" in the first half of the Direct.
Sakurai Masahiro is a genius.
Re: Feature: 32 Games We're Dying To See On Switch 2

@Koda1000 Why? Have you seen competitive Pokemon championship? There's 0 female in the teams.
Re: Uh-Oh! It Looks Like Donkey Kong Bananza Is Already Out In The Wild
I was not interested in the game at all but the Direct totally changed my mind. It looks hella fun and I can't wait for Thursday!
