I'm importing my Pac-Man copy, which should arrive on my birthday on Saturday. Zero surprise FC is no.1, though I wonder what % Switch 2 is. I'm gonna get it eventually. I did think Crossworlds was gonna be 2nd. Maybe the strong word of mouth will put it higher next week.
Anyways, I've got a week of gaming ahead with a week off work. I've treated myself to a 4K Oled Monitor that arrives tomorrow I can't wait.
HD Rumble 2.0 has been absolutely incredible in the new joy-cons and I imagine it's a similar improved experience in the Pro Controller, so that and waking from sleep would be enough for me to pay the difference in price. But this isn't too bad an alternative. Certainly looks quite nice.
@anoyonmus My wording was weird, what I meant is that, physically I'm annoyed it's a bundle. I knew it was available separately digitally. I want to get Galaxy 2 physically, but I don't want to get Galaxy 1 again. Unless it was a Switch 2 version, then I wouldn't have minded.
@sixrings Mario Party didn't get any boost, so it shouldn't be assumed. I have no interest in the Bellabel Park stuff as it's multiplayer focused, so yeah I want to know what the Switch 2 edition is
Depending on the price, I'll get Galaxy 2. But I'm annoyed it's a bundle and only for Switch 1. Mouse mode for collecting the star bits would've been great.
This game's HD rumble is also incredible, love the feel of riding the speeder or as spaceships go by during cutscenes. Very well done. I just with there was mouse mode. So frustrating that there isnt
I think, selfishly.... I want it to be pushed into 2026. I don't want to play the game until I have a tv or monitor capable to do 4K/120fps and I couldn't either until I got my new job (just started) and I now need to move out to a place that I can physically fit said tv or monitor. Very specific requirements... So yeah, a little bit into 2026 should be enough time... fingers crossed. So if you can all beg Nintendo for a delay just for me )))
Moving the camera/aiming feels horrible for some reason. Needs mouse mode. I've just gotten through the first bit and don't feel compelled at the moment to even finish the demo let alone buy the game
Looks really light on content to me and I don't get the point? Do you unlock things? Is there a ranked mode? I could see the appeal if it was £30, but it's twice that.
Is This Seat Taken needs a Switch 2 version with mouse support. Little Kitty needs a S2 version for improved frame rates, same for Herdling.
Ultimate Sheep Raccoon got me excited. I love Chicken Horse, however, this looks quite a bit more challenging and I now have less friends to play with. Glaciered could be cool and that Opus game too.
Overall, a pretty average Indie direct to me. Wanted more Switch 2 specific stuff. But that's Nintendo's fault for not getting dev kits into more third parties and indies hands sooner.
I'm finding it incredibly difficult to use. It's not clear where to drag things at first and now stuff isn't dragging at all. It just keeps flipping the car over.
Edit: I also can't find any way to save to your profile what platforms you have. I finally managed to finish a "run" where I filtered it to just Switch 2 games, and all the suggested games afterwards are PS5 games.... which I don't have. It's useless to me in it's current state and not nearly as helpful as Deku Deals
@LinktotheFuture It was a Club Nintendo reward back in the day. The OG My Nintendo. You got star points with codes included in games and could exchange them for stuff.
It looks like a really standard port at the moment. Have they done anything with mouse mode? HD rumble? Webcam? Anything specific to Switch 2? It's not even a full on cart release. Everyone knows at this point Ubisoft games loose their value so quickly and you'll probably be able to pick this up for less than £20 come January

Re: Review: Kirby And The Forgotten Land - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Star-Crossed World - Kirby's Best Shines Even Brighter
At least this one doesn't lie about having a "Switch 2 Edition" unlike Mario Party.
It seems alright, but I'm in no rush for it.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (23rd August)
I'm playing Bank Account, as I'm at a music festival where food is £15+ and don't get me started on drinks...
Once the weekdays hit, I want to play Puyo Puyo Tetris 2S as my imported copy arrived yesterday.
Re: Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion Gets A Free Demo On Switch 2

I wish I could still use my golden Wii wheel
Re: Prominent YouTuber Doubles Down On Belief That A Nintendo Direct Is Due This Month
We REALLY need release dates, especially for Metroid. We need third party announcements that we know publishers must be sitting on.
I'm really hoping the direct gets announced today for tomorrow (even though I would likely miss it due to work).
Re: Borderlands 4 On Switch 2 Will "Mostly" Run At 30fps
Why should it be a key card? Why not use a regular card for 64gb worth of content and then the rest as a digital download?
He did also confirm mouse mode support on twitter btw.
Re: Acclaimed Puzzler 'Viewfinder' Bends Reality On Switch This Winter

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (19th July)
