@KoopaTheGamer They most likely test it on the regular app before moving it over to the Mature app. We weren’t even supposed to know it was coming before the announcement because it was blurred.
I never understood why gender ratios mattered nowadays since our understanding of it is way more complicated and diverse than just “male” or “female” but it is still kinda neat to see this stuff.
30fps during bosses is a lot worse than I thought the frame rate drops would be (I figured they’d just be small dips here and there and Photo Mode being 30fps). I’m sure the game is great but having a first-party game launch a month later and already have performance issues is not a great look. Hopefully they fix it.
All they have to do is ban all Gen AI games and all of that hentai slop. The developers of Street Uni X and Slime 64 are trying to get approved to put their games on Switch 1 but keep getting rejected while talentless hacks get to out environment-killing garbage just because they have connections.
@Colonel1000 Fair but the Wii U was a mid console so I’d take a Switch 2 type of console over that thing any day (and I had a Wii U through the second half of its life, Smash 4 DLC was like the only interesting thing that released during that time)
No it’s not. This is how we end up with $80 games and $60 remasters. If any other company said it this site would be (rightfully) upset at them but Miyamoto saying it is good apparently.
He’s 3 years too late and a bit too terminally online methinks, even if it was revealed that Taylor was making it up (and is a terrible person with terrible views nonetheless).
@Spider-Kev You’re on a big section of the track suited for battles instead of having to use the whole track. They kinda had to do that to fit 24 players in it.
Definitely a bit of an overreaction but if they’re charging $80 for this game then doing something to piss people off like this is a very bad move. As much as I’ve been loving World it’s still not worth that much money.
Also they really need to change that stupid Kamek RNG.
No more lame crossover characters please. There are plenty of Mario characters just begging to be used and just going “well we can add this other Nintendo character!” is lazy. R.O.B. at least was just an accessory and was a fun inclusion while the guest characters in the GP games made sense because Namco made them.
Donkey Konga 2 my beloved! (well maybe I don’t like it that much but it is pretty fun)
I’ll choose the North American cover just because I like the color scheme and simplicity a bit better. Japan’s is great too hut the European box art just looks ugly to me for some reason.
Not a fan of guest characters in non-crossover games anymore to be honest (except for the other SEGA characters because of the first two games) and Nickelodeon taking up 3 slots of this season pass kinda stinks in my opinion. I’d rather they just keep it to Sonic/SEGA characters.
@Anti-Matter How is something with a different age rating going to harm the brand? And also why be such a stick in the mud all of the time here?
@pichuscute0 Which fans are you talking about? Because a lot of people really love the game. Maybe you mean the kind of fans who moan and whine about everything they don’t enjoy like with Star Wars fans who endlessly complain about the sequels (and those who STILL whine about the prequels)?
@DennisLofgren Heck yeah. The Switch 2 is mainly going to be a Switch 1 replacement for me and the improved performance is a huge plus (I’ve had my Switch 1 ever since a month after launch so I figured I was due for an upgrade)

Re: Dynasty Warriors: Origins Will Run At A "Fixed" 30fps On Switch 2
60fps should be the norm at this point. Paying $450-500 for a console where a lot of third party games are just 30fps for $70 is kinda unacceptable.
Re: Review: Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island & Emerald Rush (Switch 2) - DLC That's Ripe With Fun, But Could've Been More
@LastFootnote Nintendo revealed that it wasn’t completed by making us pay $20 for a new level only 2 months after launch. Even though it’s a $70 game.
Re: Review: Donkey Kong Bananza: DK Island & Emerald Rush (Switch 2) - DLC That's Ripe With Fun, But Could've Been More
$20 for a new level and some missions in a game that’s ALREADY $70.
Actually abysmal.

Re: Borderlands 4 On Switch 2 Won't Support Split-Screen Couch Co-Op
12 GB of RAM yet they still can’t manage 60 or even a stable 30? Sounds like a skill issue.

Re: Donkey Kong Bananza Director Acknowledges Performance Drops: "We Prioritized Fun And Playability"

Re: Donkey Kong Bananza Director Acknowledges Performance Drops: "We Prioritized Fun And Playability"
It’s all good if it’s only slight drops but you’d think they’d want to make performance as perfect as it can get? Especially for a launch window game.
Re: Super Mario 3D All-Stars Updated To Version 1.1.3, "Improves Gameplay" On Switch 2

Re: Fans Reckon Nintendo Has "Killed" Mario Kart World With Its Latest Update

There was literally no need to make a change like that. People should be able to play three lap races if they want.
