Bananza is great but my retarded nitpick is the banandium energy glow making DK look permanently bright red instead of normal browna new Smash is my pie in the sky

Who else has anti-Nintendo fatigue?
>>730529935>What are you currently enjoying on your Switch 2 /v/?Splatoon 3, finishing kirby and the forgotten lands. Playing some tetris/fortnite>What are you looking forward to, or most excited for in 2026 so far?RE9 and 007, might hold off on 007 until I see performance tho. Splatoon Raiders is what I wanna play the most right now>Did you get anything in the eShop sales?Held off until I can see more NS2 updates
>>730529935>that sd cardi just ordered a 1tb Lexar sd express card, is that brand fine or im fucked?
>>730530994Heard some bad things about lexar so I chose sandisk
>>730529935I was bummed out enough by Prime 4 being as much of a slog as it was that I've mostly been playing short-ish games. I've been going through the Castlevania collections recently. I never played the DS games before so the Dominus Collection is going to be fun when I get to it.Aside from that, short bursts of MK World, might start Fantasy Life i soon since I got that in the sale.
Does anyone know a good, affordable 43-inch TV for the Switch 2? My current TV is so old that I need to replace it, but I don’t want to spend too much.
Bump
Splatfest.
>Questioning whether I really needed an SD card cause games sizes didn't seem too bad at first and I have a good spread of physical/digital>Start looking more into "HD" games that've been brought over to the S2>FF7 Remake is apparently 90gb, Yakuza Kiwami 2 is 45gb, Cyberpunk is like 60gbWell shit
Just finished prime 4 100% on hard modeCertainly not the best of the prime games but I still thought it was fun
>>730533813>Cyberpunk is like 60gbyou can buy the physical version though, it has the game on the card
>>730531209Depends, do you just want 4k or do you also want 120htz? The latter is going to cost no less than $500. Otherwise you can get a cheap TV for around $200-300.
>>730534589$500 is about as much as I’m willing to spend.
Nintendo interviewhttps://www.installbaseforum.com/forums/threads/media-create-sales-week-52-2025-dec-22-dec-28.4292/page-4- How are software sales going?"Software sales are booming along with the hardware. In addition to Mario Kart World, which was released at the same time as the Switch 2, Donkey Kong Bananza, which was released in July last year, has also become popular, especially overseas. Since then, we have released new Pokemon titles, and our lineup is already diverse. We have received great support from other software publishers. We would like to further enhance our software offerings from 2026 onwards."
>>730533813Yeah I quickly realized I was gonna need a microsd for Switch 2, never bought anything like that for my original switch because I just played Nintendo games anyways.
>>730529935Splatfest
>>730535175You'll have to look into reviews for 120htz TVs whether they work or not. Plus you'll need the right HDMI 2.1 cable. I haven't searched for a new TV in years. But whatever you do: DO NOT buy an Android TV. My brother got an Android TV. It updated and it bricked after 5 years.
I love how you can just break the game in FFII Pixel Remaster.
>>730529935Yooka Replaylee and Pikmin 4Pokopia and Adventure of Elliotphysical chad
>>730538492>Yooka ReplayleeIs this any good?I also want to play Pikmin 4 but I'm not touching until we get a Switch 2 patch
>>730536000>Plus you'll need the right HDMI 2.1Switch 2 comes with a HDMI 2.1 cable.
>>730535347can you post the whole thing? it's hidden without an account
>>730538564Yeah it's fully physical and includes a poster for $50, so that's already on point. Then the game itself feels like Banjo Kazooie crossed with Mario Odyssey, those games are bangers, and thus so is this. You can tell a lot of soul and polish went into making it a good version.As for Pikmin 4, it's up to you. The game already looks and runs great. It's only disappointing there's no upgrade yet, but as a consolation as little as a month or two ago they updated the game for everyone who owns it, and added a new difficulty mode, a new game +, and some toggleable features. You can't go wrong if you break down and get it now, I did and I'm enjoying it. I suspect there might be a $20 piece of content coming this year because of how odd the game is being handled and how long the development of the games have taken in the past.
>>730538642It's an okay cable. But I prefer a better made longer cable. I did a quick look at some TVs. It looks like most of the big luxury brands for 120hz are going to be well over $500. We're talking $700-1200. There are some LED TVs that are around $500-600 if you want to make some compromises. Otherwise if you don't care about 120hz gaming you can get a decent 4k TV for under $400.
>What are you currently enjoying on your Switch /v/?I finished Super Mario Galaxy 2 the other day, (it wasWAY better than Galaxy 1) and Donkey Kong Land on Gameboy Switch Online app, I'm playing Sonic Cross Worlds Pac-Man festival, Corpse Party Tetralogy Pack, Shantae Advance Risky Revolution and Tales of Graces F>What are you most excited for in 2026 so far?Nothin really, maybe Splatoon Raiders, I'm hyped for Requiem tho, already preordered it>Did you get anything in the eShop sales?Boughted Star Wars Outlaws Gold Edition for $30, also boughted Arkham Trilogy, SuperHOT, Mangavania I and II, Bomb Rush Cyberfunk and Fast Fusion, Tunic, New Star GP,Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo and Tomb Raider Definitive Edition.>>730537767Yeah, I finished Final Fantasy II last year, had a good time, might start III eventually>>730535610Oh is it today? Might play later>>730533957I'm gonna get it eventually.>>730538492Hopefully that Elliot game is good
>>730540040>Hopefully that Elliot game is goodOh it's going to be. Play the demo and send them feedback, something like "make fairy less annoying"
>What are you currently enjoying on your Switch 2 /v/?About to start a new game in RDR. I've never played it before>What are you looking forward to, or most excited for in 2026 so far?Only 2026 game announced so far I'm definitely going to buy is Fire Emblem>Did you get anything in the eShop sales?Red Dead Redemption.There's a gaming store chain in my country which is going under and they're selling physical copies of Cyber Punk, Story of Seasons Grand Bazaar, DXM2 and Guardians of Azuma for $70 each (us dollar equivalent would be $40) and I don't know if I should buy some of them or not
>>730540935Sounds like a good deal
>>730529935Does anyone here have issues with holding the Switch 2 for a while? Does it make your hands or arms tired or hurt? Thinking about getting one.
>>730542220Nope. Never had a problem with the original neither. But some people get some third party handles
>>730542343Last nintendo i bought was a 2DS years ago. Would the Switch 2 be a fitting return?
>>730542419Hell yeah. Nintendo exclusives are great and third party games on a hybrid is awesome. Only gaming platform I use now because of that.
What do you expect?I hope we get Xenoblade Chronicles Switch 2 editions and DOOM, Wolfenstein Switch 2 editions too I want Donkey Kong 64 and Wario Land 2 for Switch Online too.
>>730542220Personally I had to buy some joycon grips from dbrand for like, 20 USD?I didn't have problems with the original Switch though, I think the 2 is just slightly out of my comfort rangeI have small hands
>>730542592Also chairs hurt my legs and ass so I will benefit from a handheld by being able to lay in the bed.
Fire Emblem is my 2nd or 3rd favourite franchise after Zelda and the Nintendo musuo games. Been enjoying PoR so far, though normal difficulty is way too easy so far. I hope it gets more difficult as it goes.
>>730542690How long are your hands?
>>730542657Smash Ultimate needs an update>What do you expect?Honestly no idea. Luigi's Mansion 4 seems like the safest bet but that's a pretty big seller and they might want something huge like 3D Mario for this year to push the system hard
>>730529935>>What are you currently enjoying on your Switch 2 /v/?Unicorn Overlords, Transiruby, Stardew Valley and MHRise.>>What are you looking forward to, or most excited for in 2026 so far?Dunno really, maybe Pragmata and more Switch 2 versions.>>Did you get anything in the eShop sales?The games I mentioned above, plus Silksong and Hollow Knight.Also considering getting WitchSpring R, The Ninja Saviors and The Cruel King.
>>730542419Not really. The console is big. Screen scratches easily. And the battery life isn't good. I'd wait for a Switch 2 Lite if you're a handheld only gamer.>inb4 rape schizo
>>730530994below average but at least it's not adata tier bad, just "could have gotten better for the same or less money"hope you didnt pay premium for it at least
>>730543503Yeah I've become a docked player on S2 because of the battery life mostly. It sucks dick when I'm playing anything above pixelshit indie-tier. I knew that'd be the case going in but price hikes seemed likely so I still got it early instead of waiting for a revision.
>>730530791I've had it for a long time. If anything I wish I hadn't missed out on the Switch Era.
>>730530791Feels like even normalfags are starting to have it these days.
>>730545143>Normalfagsone of them is a nintendo fan and the other one is a NDS grifter
I'd be surprised if Final Fantasy XVI comes to Switch 2 later. Then again we still don't have FFXIII. Maybe the XIII Trilogy will come to Switch 2. I really want Kingdom Hearts to come natively to Switch 2 even if it's digital.
I reviewed the games that were on NSO, and I think it's actually a really good selection. Most people who are new to the games probably won't bother due to lack of knowledge, but if I didn't have other options available, I'd definitely dive in on NSO emulation. Gamecube games, I think, are still too slow to release.>What are you playing?Persona 3, Pokemon Z-A, and Process of Elimination. I'm making reeeeally slow progress in PoE.>What are you looking forward to?Not sure, to be honest. I might double dip on some games I have on PC, but I'm really just looking to see what's on the horizon. I'd like some action/arcade games, but all I don't feel like buying Inti Creates titles, and there doesn't seem to be much else.>eshop sales?I considered getting Everybody's Golf, but ultimately decided not to. Don't want to double dip yet. Also considered The Last Remnant, but I already got some other JRPGs around that time. I also have 3 other Saga games. Maybe after I finish some, I'll try TLR.>>730540040>Corpse Party Tetralogy PackI considered getting that until I realized the games were on GoG.
switchtards will literally spend $70 to buy a "game key card" of a 2017 video game
>>730540040OK hear me out
I'm not Nintendo personnel. I'm asking this because I bought a GKC game the other day.>Would you consider a GKC game purchase and why or why not?In my case, it was Persona 3. I basically got it at half price, and I knew that I was going to sell/trade it after completing it. I've beaten the original game and just wanted to revisit it. I don't think I'd buy a GKC for a game I wanted to keep long-term. Just doesn't seem beneficial to me. If I can get a GKC at a significant discount, it might be more appealing.
>>730533813Thankfully those cards are getting cheaper.
>>730546150I would take a goykey anyday of the week over the code in box shit or glorified goykey ("here's your 2gb cart, now download the other 18gb of the game as an update goy") we had during the switch 1 era.Another good thing about GKCs aside from forcing publishers to put a loud and ugly "WE ARE BEING CHEAP KIKES" sticker on the box is how they tend to go on sale and discounts rather quickly, which is nice even if you don't plan on reselling because you have to be insane to buy one for more than 50 bucks tops.
>>730529935played the demo for DQ7 and The Adventures of Elliott and i'm really excited for both of them. Also can't wait for Fortune's Weave to release. 2026 will be a good year for me because right now my S2 is just a glorified Mario Kart machine
>>730542657When is the next direct? February?
>>730542803>I hope it gets more difficult as it goes.anon not only it doesn't get harder but you will be locked out of the true final boss
>>730546523Can we have a solution where you just install the game from the card on your system instead of having to download from an online server someday? I'd like 128 gig cards in the future on top of 32 gig and 16 gig cards.
>>730546150Only if it's on heavy discount (We're talking $20-30 max). As a concept I despise the things for what they've done to the market and allowed companies like Squeenix and Capcom to cheap out on spending more on physical carts. I would rather they not make these things on GKCs at all and make them solely digital if they're going to force GKCs on us. They're never going to reprint stuff like Bravely Default Remastered for example so may as well buy it for $20 when it hits that low, but Nintendo themselves doing it for Pokopia is inexcusable.>>730546523Code-in-a-box is objectively better because you don't have to have a cart in your cartridge slot and it's tied to your account whereas the GKC takes up that slot and has all the negatives of digital and physical with the only benefit being you can resell it. You still have to waste the storage space, still have to rob another game from being in your system, and you can't even share it with as many people as a digital copy.
>>730542803Like most games, it has some more difficult chapters, but generally it has a consistent level of difficulty. Path of Radiance is probably the second or third easiest game in the series.
>>730546150>Would you consider a GKC game purchase and why or why not?I don't mind GKCs since majority of my switch library are digital. The only GKC game I own so far is Persona 3 Reload and it's only because the cart version was cheaper than the digital version during the holiday sales.
>>730546742>>Can we have a solution where you just install the game from the card on your systemI have an even better solution, something revolutionary.Just have the game on the fucking cart.Crazy I know.>>730546762>Code-in-a-box is objectively betterIf it's around 50 bucks new or less? Sure.70-80? Eat shit lmfao.
I was give the DQ Eldrick trilogy for Christmas and I just finished the first one, it was pretty good I liked itLooking forward to the 2nd and especially the 3rd
>>730533813Does your faggot ass finally understand why Goy Key Cards are cancer now?
>>730546762>>Code-in-a-box is objectively better becausenot even fucking close, stop bootlicking for niggerkike publishers that actively are trying to nickle and dime you with a full price digital gamelikewise if said publishers are going to be cheap kikes then they get to cope and seethe about me being a cheap kike and buying their goykey game used or on the bargain bin for peanuts as if it were a steam sale after it inevitably flops due to being a goykeyif they want people to respect their prices and games they should at the bare minimum put the game in-cart, inti could, AAA publishers have no excuse
>>730547169Compared to GKCs it is, especially if you don't plan on reselling your game. If you don't plan on reselling your game the GKC loses its sole benefit which is that exact thing. Otherwise a GKC is a digital copy that can be destroyed, takes up the same storage space as a digital copy, has the same restrictions as a digital copy, hogs your cartridge slot, and can't be lent out as much as a digital copy can.I hate paying for air too, don't get me wrong, but digital vs. GKC is nearly all in favor of digital unless you really have to have a physical copy. Price-wise both are ass even if the GKC is dropping heavily more than any normal physical copy because no one wants them.
>>730530791I think I’ve owned pretty much every Nintendo handheld at this point (still need to grab a GBC), so I’m not a hater or anything. But I honestly don’t get why I’m supposed to upgrade to the Switch 2 when the Switch 1 already has a massive library. Convince me to buy a Switch 2.Right now, those two exclusives and the so-called “enhanced versions” aren’t a strong enough reason for me, desu.
I'm dying for a Kirby paddok. I finally get into the game and now no one makes rooms.
Can it be January 22 already?I wanna play REMAKE on Switch 2 already.
>>730547432As great as I think Kirby Air Riders is, I only play it when I'm in the mood. I just can't be one of these people that plays it constantly. Hopefully you find a room.
>>730547365This argument doesn't work when code in box releases pretty much never went on sale while you can get goykey games for cheap a mere week after release depending on the game.The resale thing isn't just from (you) to get money, it's from someone else giving you the game for cheap, sometimes cheaper than a steam sale for a similar non-shovelware release.
>What are you currently enjoying on your Switch 2 /v/?Bravely Default 2 & Disgaea 6>What are you looking forward to, or most excited for in 2026 so far?Dragon Quest VII reimagined >Did you get anything in the eShop sales?Yeah heaps of indie games
>>730547424What Switch do you own? If it's the OLED it's not really a good upgrade outside of better performance at the moment especially if you're on the fence. If it's the original or Lite it's a massive upgrade in terms of build quality, performance, and better Joycons.The general reason I bought one is because I had the OG Switch 1 and was sick and tired of the terrible performance of games on it (Especially the ones released later on in the lifespan) which the Switch 2 pretty much ironed out entirely and really wanted Pokemon SV to not run at 15 FPS. It actively improves every game you own either through stable framerates or stable dynamic resolutions even if they have no patch, and basically 90% of my library has one of those two as an issue.Nintendo games keep getting free patches that take advantage of it. Newer games are also releasing where the Switch 1 version is pretty much perfectly stable through the Switch 2 while the Switch 2 version is just a bump to 1080p and maybe 60 FPS if you're lucky.The UI is also incredibly quick, you have no idea how bad the Switch 1's UI is until you've used the Switch 2. Everything is instant and loads immediately whereas on the Switch 1 just getting into the eShop or NSO menu is like 15-30 seconds of waiting with insanely slow loading times between sections.The downsides are that it's enormous, it's much bigger than the Switch 1, the screen doesn't look that great, if you play in handheld at all every Switch 1 game looks noticeably bad because they're at 720p or lower (There's no way to make them act docked in handheld) but it's a 1080p screen, the SD Express cards are 2-3x as expensive as normal microSD cards, and you can't take screenshots at 1080p unless it's a Switch 2 game even when docked.>>730547648Code in a box games go on sale all the time. Just a few days ago the Mario & Rabbids dual pack went on sale for example for like $10 or $15 and the Lego 2K Racing game is constantly at $15-$20.
>>730547424i only bought one for Fire Emblem and the fear the prices might go up even more with the part price increases or whatever. There's really nothing noteworthy to play on this thing atm
>>730548245>because they very much fucking wouldn't, and nintendo releasing smaller cheaper cart sizes and them still using goykeys proves itExcept R-Type III already did the swap and we've learned from that entire swap that they only just very recently started making them available to third-party devs.I also don't get how you're not understanding that I would rather devs not release a physical copy at all if it's a GKC if they're going to be cheapskates because I at least get a better deal paying for air as I don't have to sacrifice my cartridge slot to play the same digital copy as a GKC and I can share it to multiple people in my family instead of just one person. I'd rather they do code in a box at that point because I at least get the benefits of a physical discount without all the massive downsides a GKC brings me compared to digital.
>>730546762>Code-in-a-box is objectively betterNo
>>730546837I'd like a new storage medium that has SSD Read and write speeds please. Yes write speeds too. As in you can save on the cart again.
>>730548534>they only just very recently started making them available to third-party devs.It's not actually, it's not even a release proper, it's just them announcing them something they had since launch.Those smaller carts are just switch 1 carts with a NS2 coat of paint, which a lot of AA JRPGs had been using since launch.
I was planning on waiting for a revision or special edition, but are the prices going to go up, maybe I should just get one.
>>730548070I’ve got the original v2 Switch with some comfy third-party Joy-Cons. You make good points, but honestly I’m more tempted to grab an OLED version as a final upgrade before they stop making them. I feel like the Switch 2 only makes sense if you never had a Switch 1 to begin with.>>730548070>The general reason I bought one is because I had the OG Switch 1 and was sick and tired of the terrible performance of games on it (Especially the ones released later on in the lifespan)>It actively improves every game you own either through stable framerates or stable dynamic resolutions even if they have no patch, and basically 90% of my library has one of those two as an issue.Thing is, I had seven years to play and finish all those games with the Switch 1’s shit performance. Jumping to the Switch 2 means rebuying accessories, SD cards, Joy-Cons, all for a “refined” version of the same thing. That’s a downside for me.I’ll also admit it kind of pisses me off that the Switch 2 feels like what the original Switch should’ve been in the first place. I need a Switch 2 OLED and more actual new games before I even consider making the jump.
when are nintendo going to release some plain joy con 2 that don't have garish colours
>>730547365>I would rather be stiffed because I'm lazykys
>>730549382>I had seven years to play and finish all those games with the Switch 1’s shit performance.Well, look at it this way: How many Switch 1 games do you still have to play through? In my case it's like 80ish out of 150ish or so games still left to finish, most of them being short ones I haven't gotten around to. I'd say if more than a third of your library is on Switch 1 unplayed it's probably worth it going forward, or if you have games you finished but never properly finished like a Hyrule Warriors for example it's a massive improvement.>Jumping to the Switch 2 means rebuying accessories, SD cards, Joy-Cons, all for a “refined” version of the same thing.There's currently no Joycons worth replacing on the thing, it's all cheap nonsense or the Nitro Deck type stuff. Screen protectors are like $5 for 3 on any Chinese storefront. The SD Express card is the most expensive part, I paid $50 for a 256GB when I bought mine. Unless you plan on buying some sort of grip there's not really much to buy for it at all.>>730549884Buy picture related on something like AliExpress. They massive make it feel more like what the system should have released as. I have no idea why they were so afraid of color. There's also button swaps but they make it stand out too much.
>>730546649Oh fuck... I better quit while I haven't gotten too far and start hard mode then. Took a nap and thread is still up, nice.
>>730550205I'm not lazy. If I am getting a worse digital copy then why in the world should I put up with the added negatives of a physical copy on top of it for no benefit if I'm not wanting to sell the copy? If I have to deal with every negative of a digital copy but it also takes up my cartridge slot, I can only lend it to one person and I don't even get to play it while I lend it to that person, and it's able to be destroyed or lost then why in the world would I choose that over a digital copy? What benefit am I gaining from it?The sole reason I would be buying a GKC is because I want a physical copy for my shelf. That's it. It is a bad thing for the market and gaming as a whole because it allows devs to cheap out on proper physical copies of games and justify not making them on proper carts. The devs are going to be shamed anyway for having a code in a box just like they're shamed for having a GKC, but now they can justify making a GKC over a physical because "It's still a physical copy" when it's not and I as a consumer get a significantly worse deal opting for the GKC over the code in a box.
>>730550892>It is a bad thing for the market and gaming as a whole because it allows devs to cheap out on proper physical copies of games and justify not making them on proper cartsIt's just a pointless thing to whine about. Companies have done digital only on PC and other consoles forever, they're never going back. Pass me on code in a box, it's the single worst thing out there. Worse than digital only too.
When is Splatoon 3 getting a Switch 2 upgrade?
>>730551324It already got patched to run at 4K 60FPS.
>>730551096It's only worse in the sense that you're getting dicked with them going through the effort of making a package that has nothing in it so they put a half-assed effort into making a physical copy.It's better in the sense that you get the advantage of it being discounted quickly since it has to sit on a store shelf.Compared to a GKC the code in the box is a proper digital copy with all the positives that come with it (Attached to your account, shared across multiple systems and accounts, and doesn't take up your cartridge slot) with the only negative being you can't sell it. A GKC is worse than a code in a box because they went through the effort in making a cartridge and it's a locked down digital copy instead of a proper digital copy. The only benefit it has at all is that you can resell it. That is the sole positive a GKC provides anyone.If you are not going to resell your game the GKC has zero benefits over the code in the box. It only has negatives.It is a digital copy that takes up the same amount of space on your system, can't be reverted to a lower version because digital copies don't let you, takes up your cartridge slot, can't be shared with more than one person or played while you share it, and can be lost, stolen, or broken. I really don't get this assertion that code in a box is worse. How is it worse? If you're not going to sell it I want you to explain how it's worse.
>>730551542This has been a thing since the nes. Carts are expensive and a major outlay of $ that is not a guarantee of profit especially for 3rd parties. The market has been going full digital for a long time now and other companies have been going mostly digital. Nintendo was the hold out for a long time, but times have changed and the consumer has spoken. Physical is like records and vhs, a niche collector item.
>>730551906>but times have changed and the consumer has spokenPhysical still makes up a large amount of sales on Playstation, the Insomniac leak outright showed that.Shuhei said that he doesn't see physical leaving Playstation yet either.Nitnendo does not seem to want to pivot from physical at all, the GKCs are more to placate third parties.Physical isn't as dominant as it once was, yes, but at the same time it's necessary for window shopping, gift giving, and "free" advertisement for brands. It would be idiotic for anyone to pivot away from it fully since the console market is not PC and parents want to buy games for their kids, not gift cards.
>>730551542>It only has negatives.>actually own your stuff>easier to use, everybody understands it>bigger sales because retail/used sales competes>actually get a box so you got something to collectIf I want a digital only meme box I'd just get a piece of shit PC and pirate everything. I'm not gonna spend any money unless I get my box. Digital only is the true cancer that's killing gaming
>>730552083>actually own your stuffYou don't own anything on the GKC because there is nothing on the GKC. You are beholden to the exact same digital server as digital copies are to obtain and play your game and do not get access to downpatched versions like a physical copy does. You only "own" it in the sense that you can resell the thing in your hand, but if you don't want to resell it then what? What is your benefit then?>easier to use, everybody understands itIt's more convenient upfront than a digital copy since you don't have to put anything in, but less convenient because you take up a slot to use it.>bigger sales because retail/used sales competesRetail causing price drops is still a thing for CIB. Used is the only thing you miss out on.>actually get a box so you got something to collectThat's also present with CIB.
>>730550892Digital is already the worst of it, cheaping out on everything.
>>730552083>only cares about muh boxfound the fag who buys code in a box releases
>>730529935>What are you currently enjoying on your Switch 2 /v/?splatoon 3>What are you looking forward to, or most excited for in 2026 so far?The Adventures of Elliot, Bloodstained: scarlet engagement and Splatoon raiders>Did you get anything in the eShop sales?no
>>730529935Genuinely why would you want to play third party games on a Nintendo? If I get one I would pretty much only play the exclusives/first party titles.
>What are you currently enjoying on your Switch 2 /v/?Hades II and Dragon Quest II HD-2D mostly>What are you looking forward to, or most excited for in 2026 so far?Xenoblade switch 2 upgrades or a new xeno game.Monolithsoft has been working on a new project for years>Did you get anything in the eShop sales?Nah. I already own like 2/3 of the switch 2 library and way overspent on the holidays and whores.
>>730553108Handheld capabilities or because they "feel" like they belong on the system. Certain JRPGs just "feel" correct on Nintendo platforms over Sony for example (DQ as a quick one), monster collectors are for Nintendo systems since Pokemon and all that, Mega Man and Zelda-esque copycats belong on it, etc. If you don't have this kind of mindset then you're not really gonna get this though.
Me and my son have been enjoying goldeneye n64 split screen, any games like this for the modern consoles? Switch2/ps5 etc.
>>730553338True. I'm not really into stuff like that anyways so yeah I dont really get it. What looks good to me is like the platformer stuff like bananza
>>730553353There's Perfect Dark but it's in the 17+ app. You can turn on paintball mode to censor blood.
>>730529935replaying astral chain.just about to invade the ARI.This game is so fucking good once the combat comes together
>>730554304Do you actually play games for fun?
>>730535347Oh gee.Exactly what anyone with a brain knew was occuring.But still tyvm.>>730535610>playing it earns you 100 plat pointsWhatever I hit defender that's good enough.Got a webm or two out of it as well.
>>730554304How does it look in 4K? I recall the resolution being pretty bad on the Switch 1. Still one of the best Switch exclusives though.
Still not buying a switch 2
>>730553338Steam deck is better for everything you mentioned althoughbeit
>>730540935Absolutely buy Deamon X machina Titanic Scion.Otherwise I heard cyberpunk runs well enough. SoS and GoA depend on how big you are into farming games.
>>730542592Monolith please just give XBC2 an upgrade.Your baby is in pain.The rest would be nice but 2 needs it so badly.
>>730553353Not a lot of games have split screen. There's Mario Kart. But that's the only splitscreen game I can think of. Maybe Pikmin 3 Deluxe?
>>730554730All the Xenoblade games need an upgrade. There needs to be a Direct where they solely focus on the fact they're all getting upgrades to 1080p minimum, no dynamic resolution, at 60 FPS. The games look even worse on the Switch 2 in handheld mode thanks to the 1080p screen and it only hitting something like 540p in handheld.
>>730546742>I'd like 128 gig cards in the future on top of 32 gig and 16 gig cards.they are trying to make carts of variable sizes now since Nintendo is pumping money into the dead tech that was express flash.Give it 4-10 months.
>>730547432i'll make one after i clear assed chainsso 2-3 hours
>>730529935Huh? Is there another company doing 1tb sd express cards now?
>>730551324given it's PvP and on the Switch1.Never.Because it'd be unfair to Switch1 users to have higher performance or mouse controls.Just wait for Raiders anon.It's way more stable on switch2 by default anyhow plus got that 60fps patch
>production of smaller size cartridges will become available>most third party devs will still choose key card gamesNintendo should have offered these smaller size cartridges to devs from the get-go. Then again, Capcom already admitted it's more so a decision about reducing costs, so I don't think they would have made an effort to put their games in them.
>>730554531It doesn't have a switch 2 update.
>>730549884I had the grey switch and I was very disappointed that the switch 2 would not have a gray variant
>>730553027>Bloodstained: scarlet engagementNot even confirmed for a Nintendo release yet.
>>730554413What sort of retarded question is that?What even had you bring such up?>>730554531I don't know if it is 4k. Nor do I really care.But it has far less pixelization and frame drops on the Switch2.I've not seen any major problems with it.
>>730555346same, I despise all the coloured variants. Just give me plain black or grey or white, I don't want bright blue or red or green or purple parts on it
>>730555301Only smaller companies will benefit from the smaller carts. The big company from square enix will continue using game key cards because all their investors see is that one costs more to make than the other. To them, it's just a small inconvenience for the end user to download the game.
>>730555362I know but I still want to get it
>>730555301Only issue is the smaller cards didn't exist and were finnicky to make due to the nature of flash express....least going off what anons said in prior threads of the last few months.And given virtually no one was using Flash Express widely there was no real need or drive to invest in that process, least it's changing now.
>>730554898TrveI still haven't played Torna the Golden Country, Xenoblade Chronicles 3 DLC and Xenoblade Chronicles X because they need a full Switch 2 edition so badly
>>730555394I just dont see how you guys do it. i have to be achieving something or being competitive to play them.
>>730534206How fast is the read speed on the card, though?
>>730554661it's funny seeing you turn into a massive famitsufag
>>730553108There haven't any reasons to play japanese games and indies on anything else than a Switch such as Dredge, Hades, Atelier Sophie 2, MGS, Detective Instinct, Crow Country, Ace Combat 7, Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined, Kunitsugami, etc. I dunno why it's considered heretical to play third-parties on Nintendo, get with the times, fellow ojiisan
>>730555925I understand to some extent, but theres even less of a case to be made for it if you're just gonna use it docked
>>730555301It just means that I'll support smaller game makers
>>730555649Your dopamine receptors are fried lad.Step away from gaming for a bit, get some air. read a book.Some competition is good, but there's more to gaming than just that.>>730555846Sorry I embarrass your ass weekly.I come to /v/ to discuss games I'm playing, have played, or interested in.If I mock retards along the way all the better.
>>730556150Ini and Marvelous will put their games on a real cart>Lolipop Chainsaw is on a real cart>square and capcom can't because ?????Fucking kikes.Hope these faggots learn and fast.
>>730556276To be completely fair I do like platformers. But i guess i still feel like im accomplishing something by playing them.
>>730555992It's a mix of docked and handheld in my case, but even then there are several other factors such as being able to rent games from the local library, buying games from the JP eshop or even the console ecosystem itself being infinitely a better experience than my last years of PC gaming.
>>730556398Define what 'accomplishing something' means to you?Incredibly vague, so hard to give recommendations based on that. Help me out here.Score chasing?Beating levels swiftly/without damage?mechanic mastery?
>>730556378To be fair, I think in smaller dev's case they can't afford to piss off their niche fanbase. NIS already did and their Switch 2 versions are shelfwarming hard on their store.
>>730552272>You don't own anything on the GKCYou can sell 'em and there's nothing that can stop you.
>>730542690Use Switch 1 joy-cons with the 2, then>>730554413Saving this for the next time a humor thread comes around>>730555559I finished up X and 2 and now I’m back on 3 and I’m way better at it now that I know how important break/topple/launch/smash isAlthough not being tempted to play musical chairs with classes is nice which is one fewer thing to have to optimizeBeen filling out my soul hacking Not sure what I’m going to play afterwards/v/ got me to think that the new Metroid kind of sucks and Bananza never seemed interesting to meAnd I’m not that much of a Mario Kart guy even though I liked 1 and 8 a lot
>>730556602Yeah, and if you don't want to sell them then what? What you own is now identical to the CIB.
>>730556543Like beating a souls game or testing my ability in multiplayer games against other people
>>730553108Because you can just pirate shit on PC. Only place I buy games now is on Nintendo because it's a hybrid.
>>730556547What did NIS do exactly?I know compile heart pulled some fuckery, but missed the NIS drama I think.
>>730551906>Nintendo was the hold out for a long time, but times have changed and the consumer has spoken. Ironically enough, goycards killing code in box shit is a step towards abolishing digital only and dragging publishers back to physical releases, even if kicking and screaming.
>>730556276lol you do you homie just end up a schizo like the rest of those fags and also keep telling that paulinefag to fuck off I hate him
>>730552034>>Physical still makes up a large amount of sales on Playstation, not a good example when even extremely generous estimates show 30% or so of the pis5 library are glorified goycards that dont run without an install and updates
>>730556703I believe it was NIS but one of the more niche Japanese companies decided to use GKCs for their S2 version while the S1 version was a normal cartridge. The S1 version of their game was fully sold through on their store but the S2 version wasn't selling at all. I think it was NIS.
>>730555301>>Nintendo should have offered these smaller size cartridges to devs from the get-go.They literally did, nobody used them to the point they had to announce them again.
>>730556646I can still lend/give them out to friends/family. If they're new to gaming they might not know what they're into yet so they can borrow it and see. I gave my old switch someone in my family and I'll lend some other games to another one. Power of ownership.
>>730556775Calling out NDS shit and pointing out objective reality is hardly "being a schizo".
>>730556775I aint going to schizo out.I barely engaged with the threads yesterday because they were so fucking God or maybe Cod awful. It was just so much fucking empty vaccuous circular arguments.And yuh that always happens with sealiontranny but Holy shit Thursday and Friday were extra bad.That quarterly report can't come soon enough as the next 3-4 weeks will just be >'hurf derf november december reee>ACKTUALLI THE TRUTH IS....Like shit. It's just so mind numbing and bland atm.>spoilerOh I plan to.I didn't like him from the onset but gave him the benefit of the doubt,. But I've seen too many errors and fuck ups to let him slide anymore.
>>730557029Which you can also do with a digital copy by simply making them part of your family at which point you also can play it while they play it.
>>730557145Or you could just not jump through hoops and give them the cart for a while..
>>730557145You can't give a copy away permanently and it's a way bigger hassle. If I was stuck with digital only or a code in a box it's just slavery at the end of the day. Anyone who argues against ownership got slave mentality and they're stupid. Just like all the steam retards who proclaim it's supposed to be good for consumers lol. It's just not.
>>730557280>You can't give a copy away permanently and it's a way bigger hassle.Right, and that's the sole, one positive it has. The single one. If you are not planning on selling/giving your game away in any way it has no benefits. Zero. There isn't a single benefit a GKC has over a CIB at that point.
>>730556987>nobody used them to the point they had to announce them again.Announce them again?I thought that announcement was confirming that smaller express carts were actually entering production finally.If 3rd parties had smaller sized carts this whole time they actually are ultra turbo mega kikes. Holy fuck.I hope you are wrong on that statement.>>730557087Sure but I do actually worry for some of you cunts.These next few weeks are gonna be grim. Very fucking grim. Discussion wise.Just stay sane and don't go flying off at everyone.>>730556874Fair, that sounds about right result wise.
>>730557363they were not "entering production" nintendo said they were NOT ending production despite fucking nobody using them because they are useful for smaller shit like mario tennis or famicom detecttive in the future
>>730557087nah fuck him for defending asscreed shadows>>730557107ok you're my bro and I just don't want you ending up like them you stubborn asshole
>>730529935Haven't touched it since beating Bananza three months ago. Waiting on Rhythm Heaven.
>>730557346Code in a box is just as shit as digital only. It's quite frankly one of the most pro-consumer things about Nintendo right now and every NDS retard out there can't accept the truth. They just want them to fail because they've invested tons of money into not owning anything into shit platforms like steam, xbox and ps.
>>730557640>Code in a box is just as shit as digital only.Code in a box IS digital, I have no idea how you're not understanding this. GKCs are digital except you have less freedom with it and the single, sole benefit of it is that you can sell or give away the cartridge unlike digital. If you are not planning on selling or giving away the cartridge then a GKC is a digital copy that has less features for you.I feel like I'm talking to a brick wall here.
>>730557504Oh wow.Cool.The kikery of capcom and squeenix grows.Fuck them then. I just aint buying GKCs then.The cheap cunts.>>730557530My stubbornness is what keeps me sane lad.That and a healthy dose of seething rage.I'll survive.God damn fucking Platinum had to go and kill themselves right after promising an Astral Chain triology.Those fucking niggers.We just can't have good things anymore.
>>730557363Reminder the "64gb minimum" thing was blatantly not understanding shit on purpose from the journos.What nintendo said and the specs were about was that directstorage style ultrafast loading times were only on carts 64 and up because adding a memory controller on anything smaller was not financially viable, sizes smaller than that would have to do with normal SDXC load times.But of course journos and basically everyone ran with the lie that they would only give 64gb carts like how the switch 2 didn't come with a dock, had no internal storage, and the screen had a full third of a second worth of ghosting and input lag.
>>730557848>if it wasn't for x then it would be just like y!shut the fuck up retard
>>730557530calling out the pauline retard counts as calling out NDS, its such a blatant attempt to infiltrate with "fellow tendies" its not even funny
>>730557964>My stubbornness is what keeps me sane ladgood keep it that way see you later bro
>>730557991whats worse is some misinfo was so egregious yet insidious enough to sound legit even i spread the 64gb minimum shit for a while because "the sdxc protocol can only handle 64gb minimum and cutting chips smaller than that is more expensive than its worth" sounded logical despite now knowing it was bs
>>730558008You're trying to argue something is worse or better than something.If I am planning to keep my product and never sell or give it away then I am a legitimate example in this equation and you need to explain to me why I, as someone who will not sell or give a GKC away, should pick it over a digital copy. What benefit do I gain?
>>730557991Interesting, that was not one of the things I was aware of, or saw corrected all the much.So are we still at the point of no memory controllers on smaller carts, or do you think with the explosive success that will be changed?>>730558195perhaps in air riders yes.
>>730557991Or DF saying the screen was only gonna be 720p and terrible and everyone knew it was 1080p and looked great and then because of one shitpost everyone pretended it was terrible again and DF double downed saying the screen was disappointing. NDS from every retard trying to sabotage things. I don't get why some of them do it because they just look like complete retards forever now. Nothing they say is trustworthy.
>>730557363>>If 3rd parties had smaller sized carts this whole time they actually are ultra turbo mega kikes. Holy fuck.Some third parties like azuma did use the carts anon.People keep fellating inti because they straight up flexed and used the big boy 64gb cart for the absurd instant load times on majogami for a reason.
Currently mad at the following:>no patches or s2 versions of any Xeno title>nothing for Star Allies and RTDL DX >nothing for Pikmin 3/4>no 60fps for Astral Chain>no 60fps for Ultimate Alliance 3>no 60fps for Age of Calamity>nothing for FE 3H>no port of OOT/MM 3D, WW/TP HD>still no Sunshine on NSO (but fucking Path of Radiance???)>still no DK64 and Diddy Kong Racing >no Wario Land 1/2>no Prime 2/3>Kirby Squeak Squad, Canvas/Rainbow Curse, Triple Deluxe, Robobot are now lost media along with other DS/3DS games unless you emulate due to the platforms dying/being horribly overpriced used Will settle down now and replay Baten Kaitos
>>730558425Honestly doubt there will be carts smaller than 64 with the memory controller chip for it, that's the sort of thing you put on a RAM stick or an SSD, doesn't feel like nintendo would do it when games 32gb and down don't really need the brute forcing like that.
>>730553108>Genuinely why would you want to play third party games on a NintendoIt's an option if the PC version has Denuvo.
>>730557991>>730558278>>730558442Holy fucking shit even I spread the "64GB is the smallest they can cut SDXC" shit too.Goddamn fucking niggers can't believe they fooled me.
>>730553353I would love to say EDF World Brothers, but only the PS4 version is split screen.
>>730553108Xbox is dead, kikestation is dying, and I'm not giving money to a yacht company.
>>730558475I'm a little pissed I had to wait so long for WW/TP but surely this must be the year for it...
>>730558442No I'm aware some did,I specifically meant capcom, square, konami, bamco, western devs, etc.>>730558435they did it because they knew they HAD to kill any chance or hope of momentum Nintendo could gain.Everyone saw the writing on the wall.If the Switch2 had a huge start Nintendo turns the WHOLE industry into its bitch for at least 8 years.Possibly 16 or longer.It's going to be a damn long time until something comes out that can actually put a fight against Nintendo now.Yuh steam exists and will keep going, but they keep being antijapanese and they'll see a very slow but steady decline. The deck is barely relevant. and a 1000 buck gabecube is beyond dead.And for a new console maker to pop up they'd need the promise and support of 3rd parties plus at least 4 self made internal exclusives and guarantee of one every 2-3 months for at least 3 years.It's incredibly difficult to pull off.
>>730553353Any of the Hyrule Warriors games do split screen.Kirby Air Riders can do horizontal or vertical split.It Takes Two/Split Fiction.Astral Chain is technically two player co-op. one person controls the legion, one controls MC. I can't say how good or game it is though, never tried.
>>730558425>perhaps in air riders yes.uhh I don't have riders and don't plan on buying it
So what I'm reading itt, is that the key card shit is mostly a decision deliberately made by third parties because it's cheaper for them that way with faster loading times? If the issue wasn't that the cartridges were 64GB and Nintendo did offer smaller size cartridges, then all the people bitching and moaning were pointing their fingers at the wrong people.
>>730529935I spent the whole day grinding in Fantasy Life i. Help me. I'm excited for Monster Hunter Stories 3.>>730530791I simply play games and let it all slide.
>>730558828>they did it because they knew they HAD to kill any chance or hope of momentum Nintendo could gainMedia and dumb console warriors should know their place. There's nothing they could do to stop the fact that Nintendo has the best gaming platform. GTA 6 on NS2 alone would BTFO away like a smash ultimate move>And for a new console maker to pop up they'd need the promise and support of 3rd parties plus at least 4 self made internal exclusives and guarantee of one every 2-3 months for at least 3 years.It's incredibly difficult to pull off.It's funny to think that Facebook could have invested all those billions into making a few megagames and actually make money instead of losing everything. Sometimes the smarter move is just to make money instead of trying to dominate an entire industry
Can't wait for the Switch 2 port considering it can apparently handle UE5 now.
>>730559138It's very hilarious because Majogami is one of their horniest games yet.It's fun as Hell. Please buy it so Inti lives.I am begging you.>>730559124SquiggerSquaggotSquinkSquckSquitch>>730559227We knew since forever that 3rd parties were to blame.Nintendo flat out stated that the idea of GKC was pushed entirely by them.
>>730529935Im finishing my first skyrim playtrough via the switch 2 edition. Its great
>ARI music on return is incredibly somberDamn forgot that, really nice track.Why can't anyone just upgrade this OST to youtuber in normal 30minute chunks?>>730559305post more of those please.>>730559373the fuck is this?>>730559348Facebook is terminally retarded.I say good because they'd only bring more antiwhite rot.
>>730559485Considering Nintendo worked with Colopl after they sued them, I honestly wouldn’t put it past them to allow Palworld on Switch 2 despite what’s going on between them.
One can hope
>>730554304How's the game? Never really paid much attention to it since I think I heard quite a fair bit of negative opinions about it, but looking at your webms it seems pretty interesting.
Is this worth $40 dollars to you?
>>730559637>post more of those please.You mean something like this?
>>730559792imagine the thousands of Indians losing their job in one fell swoop
>>730559942
>>730559485>Squigger>Squaggot>Squink>Squck>Squitchlol
>>730559905No true Nintendo gamer have played this game. We've waited since the 90s
>>730560131Even though actual ff7 has been on Switch for years?
>>730560293No true Nintendo gamer would touch the original version of course. That's our Pearl Harbor.Plus we need Tifa boobies in HD
>>730560078
Never played a final fantasy game, never will. I don't want sony's damaged goods.You do you though.
>>730559792I love GTA but I want GTA6 to flop because graphicfags and snoys worshipping this game are annoying
>>730559797It's really damn solid.If you like Bayonetta or MGS Revengence you'll enjoy Astral Chain.It only got negative opinions due to being a tad choppy/pixelated on the based Switch, sorta like XBC2. Plus it is very much a 'cop sim + demon restrainer' game. You'll go from intense high action in combat to 'please help me find my lost dog/kid officer' or 'yuh that last terror attack messed up town help us move supplies/fix broken objects' etc.So some people didn't enjoy the slower beat cop sections. I find it a nice break and a good way to tie in narrative and gameplay. Plus you can just choose to not do those extra missions if you so feel like it, you'll just be unable to S+ that file/chapter if so, plus lose out on some rewards.My biggest issue is you basically can't hard save once you leave Police HQ, so you need to 'endure' a 2-4 hour chapter without a manual save and rely on the fair frequent auto saves.
>>730559942Yuh.More of these or the spoofed wii warnings.It's great.>>730559905>nigmakeMiss me with that faggot fanfiction horse shit.I'll just buy ff7 of the eshop...one day...maybe.>>730560293it's sealiontranny anon.Please stop replying.
>>730560545I need to give this game another chance. I got filtered the first hour in and never touched it again. With the bump in frame rate, I have no excuse.
Out of these, which ones do you guys think I should play next?
>>730560430>Over 100 hours of original FF7 playtime on the switch I'm a fake nintendo fan, bros...
>>730560685I don't have many Wii warnings. I have a good number of Miiverse posts.
I'm teaching myself to love Xenoblade 3. I still haven't got a Switcheroo. Which is fine because I'm still very satisfied with my Switch. I did play Silksong for like 3 months straight though
>What are you currently enjoying on your Switch 2 /v/?Juufuutei Raden's Guide to Pixel Museum. Finshed all the normal puzzles yesterday so I just have a little over 50 memory puzzles left. Pick it up if you like Picross and don't mind a VTuber doing barks in your ear as you play. Air Riders as well.>What are you looking forward to, or most excited for in 2026 so far?Rhythm Heaven, easy.>Did you get anything in the eShop sales?Tevi with money I got from a Gift exchange and Groove Coaster Future performers.
>>730560721The combat is incredibly limited at first.I don't even think your legion can chain pull you until you first enter the Astral Plane...which is mission two (or technically 1 pending how you want to count the intro chapter...though you do need to rerun it later for a few things for 100%).SO I don't fully blame you. But once the combat comes together its pure sex.>>730560724Dusk was pretty good and only 4-6 hours.Impossible Liar I heard good things about but never tried.Cave Stoey is a classic.Builders is a fun game.
>>730561176It has a good of good depths and silly shit you can do.
>>730560545>If you like Bayonetta or MGS Revengence you'll enjoy Astral ChainEh I dunno, AC has a much slower pace. Big example is at the beginning where monsters are fucking up the city, you go from the super crazy tunnel shootout into slowly helping civilians into a ambulance helicopter. There's also a lot of roaming the streets dealing with relatively mundane tasks like arresting thugs or investigating a crime scene. I personally enjoy the fuck out of the game, but I dunno if I'd recommend it to just any action fan.
>>730560724Engage doesn't make the best first impression, but when it gets good, it gets REALLY GOOD.>>730561253noted
>>730561305Currently playing Future Redeemed since I hadn't played it previously. And I do find that I enjoy it more now that the burnout has passed. Rex is still my favorite protag although I still like a Matthew. Tired Shulk makes me sad and Colony 9 hit me straight in the heart
>>730561374I did give a warning about that if you read deeper anon.But the combat itself is right up there with other great titles by Platinum.>>730561436I do miss Miiverse.It was truly unique.>>730561727Based picture.
>>730561918Me too. It was a magic place.
i bought a switch 2 last week. i wish i didnt sell all of my switch games when i installed CFW onto my OG switch. i had a physical copy of pokemon sword + expansion pass with a steelbook which costs a fuck ton now.
I'm waiting for delivery of Catherine full body, meantime I started to play the new Hyrule warriors. The beginning is slow with all expositions, but it started to be really fun when I unlocked mineru with her all zonai tools
>>730562796I have no idea why they decide to make the intros super slow.Seems really against the idea of Musous.But the combat is great fun, as good or even better than the first HW.

>>730559485Alright, I was eyeing Majogami on the eshop for a while now, but I will buy it now after seeing this whole discussion (although I'm still confused why the versions are priced differently), hopefully it delivers on all fronts.Hope Inti keeps going strong.
>eshop vouchers being removed>not sure whether to gamble on grabbing one and using it on Mario Wonder or wait until Mario Day (it was discounted past the amount you save on a voucher last year)
>>730564124I'll have a lot more next friday.>>730564212veery based.>>730565556It's a fun li'l light action game.It's honestly one of THE BEST stories of a Father's love used to protect and guide his daughter I've seen.Incredibly heartfelt and wholesome.
>>730565582The voucher ends on the 30th, so it's best to act quick.
>>730530791I have retard fatigue. That covers the whole gamut
>>730560516>Nintendie doesn't know Jewtendo's loreNo wonder you dummies always crash out whenever you're told that your baby shit company used to be a prostitution business.
>>730565582No other game's you'd use the vouchers on?Discontinued/removed means you just can't buy more, any you buy right now will be good for a year or so.
>>730529935>What are you currently enjoying on your Switch 2 /v/?Mario Picross, it's actually my most played game on my Switch 2 since I haven't really liked any of the releases for it so far. I have a launch unit I'm keeping for when a hack becomes available.>What are you looking forward to, or most excited for in 2026 so far?Nothing>Did you get anything in the eShop sales?Nope
>>730530221Yeah that's my least favorite part about the game
>>730547424I have one but until more games come out I think is pretty much a sidegrade. The screen is shitty and the actual switch 2 games eat a full charge on 2hrs but the loading times and framerates of all the games that sucked on switch 1 are better now. You can actually play Deadly Premonition 2 on it.
>>730560545I see, will consider it next time I add some funds to my eShop balance then, sounds like it could be fun, though the lack of manual saves during chapters sounds a little painful, especially if they actually take 2-4 hours.
>"time to ruin another comfy thread"
>>730566010The autosave is reliable. But no manual saves is annoying. It's the biggest flaw I'd give the game.
God I wish Nintendo would incentivize devs to do Switch 2 versions.Dark Souls ran at a pretty solid 60 on Switch 1 with overclocking, the 2 would be able to handle it at 60 and 1080p handheld easily. Handheld Dark Souls is fucking great and I don't want to get a Steam Deck again. sold my LCD because I ended up still using my Switch more years backFrom has literally no reason to go back and release an upgrade though.Same with shit like Pizza Tower. It looks like ass in handheld mode because it's 720p on a 1080p screen.
>>730566108his zelda/metroid/'muh dece,ber' seethe thread probably died after he put 300+ replies in it.So now he has to shit this one up.AnyhowJust cleared Astral Chain.That final boss can be a right cunt, but very satisfying.Going to open a paddock on air riders now
WHERE THE FUCK IS IT SQUAREI FUCKING WANT IT NOW
>>730566247From might do it once ER and Duskbloods are out. Those are clearly top priority.As for pizza tower just ask the dev on xitter or shitcord.
>>730560545nta but is it still 30 fps? I got it on my Switch 1 when it came out but never finished it because I felt like you spent too much time in that alternate realm and it all looked too samey. Considering my most played game on Switch 2 is Mario Picross maybe I should replay Astral Chain. On the topic of Platinum games, what have they been doing for the last 7+ years?
>>730565725>It's honestly one of THE BEST stories of a Father's love used to protect and guide his daughter I've seen.Cute, will definitely get it then, am a sucker for shit like that.Btw, and not to start shit, just curious, is it actually censored on S2? Heard it was but honestly, not sure anymore with everything that's been going on.
air riders paddockH5NP65>they still have new year's decorations upcute
My last shopping: One of the best limited edition, period. It cost around 60 dollars and the game is fun if you want the shop simulator with card game and cool characters. OST, 128 pages artbook and some cards for a price of average release of Nintendo game.
>>730566342I hope they finally announce it on the february direct or partner showcase (assuming if we're getting one before the general direct)
>>730566490It's not censored on Switch or Switch2 no.It didn't even get slapped with a dela unlike steam had happen.>>730566461I think it is 30fps but its incredibly solid.>what has plat been doingWell there was Project GG that ultraman game but supposed it died with Kayima leaving.Then you had Bayonetta origins, a very solid metrovaniaand....Wonderful101 remake.Besides that...no idea. Hopefully making Astral Chain2.
>>730566298How do you normally get that clashing scene in Majogami? The tutorial was kinda ass in regards to teaching me the timing with the finger boss. Do you mash to guarantee it while holding a direction or what?
>>730566818I see, thank you for humoring my questions.Funny that I just got enough money left after the sale to get the S2 version of it (good thing too, since 32 dollars is a bit out of my budget after a sale).Thanks again for this and the Astral Chain answers (assuming you are the same anon, if not my apologies).
>>730565582I'd say don't bother unless you really want one of those games right now. It's $100 or $50 for each digital game. It's not that much of a discount, you can just wait for the next sale. But if you wanna play right now, go for it.
>>730567260The game will give you a button prompt for it. You use your attack and align your attack to be the size as their own.So Salad Fingers needs a diagonal slash.Bug needs vertical.Dog needs horizontal.You'll eventually unlock Astral Spirit allies who lock you into a direction for boss clashes basically.Sirius is horizontalAstertes is vertical.Titty goddess is horizontal. And i posted early asteres killing the horse witch above as example for that.>>730567535I'm always happy to share what I know with anons so they can make an informed decision on what to buy.And yes the Astal Chain webms are mine so same guy.
>>730567891I hope they make curse of the moon 3
>>730569119>and the sad part it works because nobody ever opens up the thumbnails on those.he shifted to using AI edited images recently actually
>>730569229Shame scarlet engagement is not comin to the switch 2 guess I'll have to buy it for my series x
>>730569119once again, you should stop using the antiwhite slur ''''westoid''''
>>730569548I know that there's a good chance for it coming to the switch 2 (since the first game sold the most on switch despite STILL being unplayable) but I won't be content until I see an official announcement
>>730569808>the guy whose been posting webms all thread and discussing Astral Chain & Majogami TOTALLY hasn't been here all thread guiz!>DO NOT USE ANTIWHITE TO UNDER MINE US REEEWho do you think is going to fall for this shit cuntass?Seriously.You completely exposed yourself.Great job, and THANK YOU.Fuck bag.>>730569759>wah wah wah I'm antiwhite reeeKapply rope to neck.
>>730569913well see>>730570159lmao
I got a $10 Best Buy certificate and don't know what to do with it.Is the Yakuza 0 DC worth $20 out of pocket? Otherwise I might just use it to renew my online.
>>730570209We have been over this a hundred fucking times.If YOU faggots who try to push jews/kikes as White/Western.And thanks for not captializing the 'W' in White.Exposing yourself further there lad.Jews are not White, they do not possess the Western biospirit. They can not create Western culture or civilization.And yes I will give suggestions to any anons on 4chan on how to better talk so they can undermine antiwhiteism and end this shit. Be it on /v/, /a/, /co/, /his/ etc.You can NOT win against antiwhiteism in the antiwhite narrative. People have TRIED since the fucking 50s, or even earlier, to no damned success.And for a website whose leading slogan is 'ironically shitposting is still shitposting' NONE of you got the memo that 'ironically being 'woke', being 'sjw',.,...ironically being ANTIWHITE, is still being antiwhite' and pushing the dogma out into society.
I currently have>kirby air riders>donkey kong bananza>bayonetta 3>mario kart world>astral chain>sonic frontiers>Mario and Luigi Brothership>Tears of the Kingdomall of these are games I've either hardly played or never played and I'm wondering which one I should start already for comfy switch gaming in bedI also have all the xenoblades but I've had multiple instances in the past where I tried to play xenoblade chronicles 1 and my save got deleted and I want to play them in order but I'm annoyed at starting xenoblade 1 again
>>730570417Salaryman Shi I think it 10 bucks or less. It's made by a fellow /v/ anon.A platformer in the vein of mario though a bit more technical and challenging.Vividlope MIGHT also be 10 or less but I can't recall. /v/ made game about a bunny that has to flip tiles to his color. a decent puzzler/score attack game
>>730570775How the fuck did your xenoblade save get deleted? You don't even have a cloud back up?Though with those as the options.....I'd go Brothership, 3d World, TotK, or Bananza for comfy easy to enjoy gaming.Astral Chain and Bayo can get stressful due to score hunting/going for perfects.Mario kart and air riders depends on how tweaked you get by bs online.never played frontiers so no remark.
Trying to think of a good FF I party. I want to use Red Mage even though he got nerfed when they fixed Intellect affecting spells. He's an extra haste/temper/protect now.
>>730571054it was back in the day on the wii>played game on one of our two wiis>due to life events we lost access to that wii>started up a new save file on the other one>lost access to that for a long time as well>finally get it back>transfer data over to wii u>xenoblade save didn't transfer. had to start over again and was too burnt out to start againI had made it as far as the noppon village and melia in the jungle. I think I had rikki in my party too.Maybe I should just start it again now that I have access to it on switch
Oh wow gee no follow up from the antiwhite glowniggers.Shocking.Faggots, keep your mouth shut.On another note would people recommend Rabi Ribi?>>730572670That is some really awful luck damn.I stay retry given it's been so long the burn out and annoyance should have faded.
>>730570775I’ve been replaying Tears of the Kingdom and enjoying it far more than I remember, the performance really held it back.
>>730572880yea I think I'll try it again>On another note would people recommend Rabi Ribi?oh yeah I've played that and highly recommend. it can be quite challenging but its a very fun game. Both for the bullet hell boss fights and the extensive explorable map and fun movement.The game has achievements for things like "beating the game without picking up the main attack method" or "beating the game areas in a backwards order" as an example for how much you can sequence break. Soundtrack is extremely good and the art is just cute anime girls. I love metroidvanias and honestly rabi ribi blows the popular ones like hollow knight and ESA out of the water for me.
>>730573202ESA?But alright cool, I'll probably get it over my Dread 3rd playthrough.>>730573080Do you know if any means to dupe items is still in TotK? cause fuck farming 50+ star fragments.
I didnt even buy switch. should I pick up a switch 2?
>>730573202The good news is Xenoblade DE has a lot of QoL which will make things easier to do things.
>>730573354Environmental station alpha.It used to be a lot more popular on /v/ a few years ago.
Is Astral Chain even going to get an update when Platinum is almost kill? I'm torn between getting that or Forgotten Land.
>brown dust2 censored on steamoh boy new melties to be had.>>730573419Ah, heard of it here and there.>>730573409Has 8+ years of back log exclusives, plus 8 more coming.I built a pc last year and hardly used it due to so much shit releasing on the switch.
>>730573568Incredibly unlikely it will for awhile yet.Forgotten Land is incredibly good and the dlc only makes it better.I'm impatiently awaiting Hal's next announcement
>>730565426>but of course you hate that we still have rights.I didn't realize being forced into Nintendo's online ecosystem to obtain your game at all was so consumer-friendly compared to having that done offline.
>>730573693after rewatching this, a Kirby Katamari spin-off would probably sell like hot cakes.Spike is very satisfying in FL, even if fairly basic.>>730573727You don't need to pay for NSO to download a GCK wtfh are you on lad?
>>730573789You need to be able to access Nintendo's servers to get your copy at all. Because it's a digital copy. I never said you had to pay for NSO, I said you need Nintendo's permission to even get the game.
>>730573916You also don't need a nintendo account to download goykey games either
>>730573916You can't download patches or GKCs, you can only download system firmware, and the whole point here is that GKCs need access to Nintendo's servers period to even obtain them at all because they're digital copies, there's nothing on the cart.https://youtu.be/MqFY3rICDWs?t=438We also know that Switch 2 versions will not even open up on a banned Switch 2 unless you downloaded the update before you got banned.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rn4969P2RIA
>>730574179Rip, good thing I'm not a pirate tranny
>>730574420Again, did I ever say you couldn't download the game without an account? I said you need access to Nintendo's servers to get access to your game at all. Which isn't something that has to be done with a physical copy meaning your GKC is a digital copy with extra steps.The banned thing was what the other guy was talking about and I responded to it.
>>730574541You're still pretending as if GKCs are not equivalent to digital copies just because you can sell them ignoring the fact you are wholly reliant on Nintendo to even obtain the game in the first place unlike a physical copy. You are buying a digital copy with extra steps and less options. You are not gaining a consumer-friendly option at all, you are gaining the new normal for physical copies. Hope you're happy ruining physical copies for all of us.
I hope wario gets his own bananza moment.Wario world was so fun
>>730529935>What are you currently enjoying on your Switch 2 /v/?Metroid Prime 4.>What are you looking forward to, or most excited for in 2026 so far?That new Yoshi game whose name escapes me.>>Did you get anything in the eShop sales?No, I have a very small wishlist and nothing on it was on sale.
>>730574628I need to play it again I rented it when it came out but never finished it
>>730574628I wario world2 would be mad sex.I'll take WL5 though.I have absolute faith we'll see smaller or long ignored IPs now.Nintendo had huge expansions and hirings.You don't start your new console on DK, Kirby Air Riders, and Yoshi. all barely touched IPs, and not have plans for that shit to keep going.F-Zeroo99 WILL be the Federation Force of it's series. Meaning a harmless nothing spin-off to drum up attention in the IP and get people to try it out before dropping semi consistant main entries (given F-zero's nature likely once per console).Wario will likely escape the Ware Hell he is in.Maybe new Kid Icarus or Ice Climbers.Starfox revival.etc
>>730574808Yoshi and the Magical Book.I have hopes after the initial trailer....but made Crafted World was just....sad. One of the only actually middling nothing games Nintendo put out during the Switch.>>730574815It's short but the combat and puzzles are great.I love his shitcunt attitude.
>>730574672>Physical is dying BECAUSE of code in box shitWhy in the world do you think I think code in a box is good? I think it's a better option compared to GKCs and only GKCs specifically. Companies now have the option between physical copies, digital but with extra steps (GKCs), and digital (Code in a box and digital) when before the only options were physical copies and digital.>this is a step towards dragging the industry back to physicalOkay, walk me through the steps here because your thought process makes no sense.>Developers previous only had the option of physical and digital.>Now they have the option to have a physical digital copy.>Everyone has started to opt for making physical digital copies to save money instead of physical when, if a GKC never existed, they would have been forced to choose between physical or digital with no chance to consider a GKC and would have to eat the loss making the physical.You are saying that "this is a step towards dragging the industry back to physical" by making 70% of the copies of games out there digital (GKC) will get devs to go back to physical why exactly? They're just perpetually going to make GKCs, will say no one wants physical copies because no one is buying GKCs, and then stop making physical copies.
>>730574815Its on gamecube nso and its a short game anon get to it.Let the wah overtake you
>>730574815>>730575051I'll play it one of these days I promise
>>730575319>and avoid blaming kike third parties when the blame is rightfully theirsExcept I'm blaming both Nintendo and the third-parties. Nintendo for designing GKCs at all granting third-parties the ability to even perceive it as an option thus killing the standard physical copy as an option for companies to even consider. Third-parties for being cheap assholes.>you think devs out of the kindness of their hearts would actually release games fully in cart?Considering we literally have both DoesItPlay and a community run spreadsheet that shows for the most part physical copies contain the whole game: Yes.>FOR FULL PRICEWhen did I ever say you pay full price for it anywhere in this thread? I said it goes on sale just as often as GKCs do except now you gain significantly more options than a GKC while having the same limitations as a GKC. Literally the only difference between a GKC and a code in a box is that you can resell the GKC, that's it. When that stops being something you consider doing then there is no benefit to a GKC whatsoever to the end user. If I am not going to resell or give away my GKC in the future then having purchased a digital copy gives me the same experience as a GKC down to forcing the thing on my storage except now I don't have a tumor in my cartridge slot and can play actual physical games I purchased on top of it.
>>730575735>and putting a big and ugly disclaimer on the boxes that use it.They literally already had a gigantic disclaimer on the box on the Switch for codes in boxes. There is no difference with GKCs, the GKC banner is even smaller than on Switch 1.>No shit if you ignore THE thing that makes a night and day difference there's not much else to argue about.and if you don't ignore that one thing you have all the downsides of digital and physical wrapped in one package with none of the benefits of digital and only one single benefit of physical (You can sell it). It's a bum deal for everyone but developers because anyone who wants a physical copy now gets pushed into the GKC lane because developers will cheap out as already shown by how many companies have adopted the format whereas you and I both know they would have been forced into the actual physical copies at their expense to keep up shelf space and passive marketing.>>730575771I'd prefer they buy actual physical copies but if they're dead set on digital then what's the issue here? They get a significantly cheaper deal on the air they're willing to purchase. The only ones screwed are the publishers and Nintendo and do you think I'm going to shed a tear over either? I don't think we should have digital storefronts at all, I don't think they should exist period and ownership should return to the consumer again, not this nonsense of being tied to the hip to an online service just to obtain or manage games.
>>730575919I don't think you realize by putting a name on the grift and forcing those games to flop unless they have massive brand recognition (and even then still cutting into the profits) nintendo is still forcing to release their games physically proper.Without goykeys code in box shit would have been normalized even further until physical releases stop existing altogether, and you can hardly call this tinfoil hat shit when it's literally what steam used to kill PC physical game ownership and what xbone tried to do but killed itself in the process.
>>730576012>shit would have been normalized even furtherIt already wasn't being normalized on the Switch 1 to begin with. The only ones even doing it were some Switch 1 games that already had physical copies like Mario + Rabbids, 2K sports games, some Activision games (Which are also the same situation with no data on the disks on PS4 for example), and a few Capcom and Squeenix games but only in western regions like Mega Man Legacy Collection part 2 or FFX-2. Nintendo themselves printed physical copies of Bayonetta 1 years after Bayonetta 2 came out with the digital copy pack in when Bayonetta 3 was coming out.I have zero understanding how you think making it so the only physical copy you can buy is a glorified digital copy instead of a proper physical copy because the dev refuses to shell out for a physical copy and then consumers not purchasing said glorified digital copy is going to "save physical gaming" when all it does is show devs they don't want to buy physical copies at all anymore by ignoring the GKCs. It outright furthers the push into digital because you're not buying GKCs, which means you don't want physical copies according to developers, which means digital only now.The GKC's existence actively harms the physical space and only benefits developers. They are the only ones seeing any benefit of this at all because they can cost cut instead of releasing a proper physical copy and then use low sales of GKCs to justify no one wanting physical copies because they view them as physical copies.
>>730576171tldr?
>>730576197GKCs failing means devs view it as physical dying so they have no reason to continue making more "physical" copies when normal physical copies would have still been purchased at normal rates before this due to no controversy.People do not want GKCs because it's a digital copy with extra steps instead of a physical copy.The existence of GKCs actively harms the physical space and furthers us into a digital future because no one wants to buy them due to what they are.
>>730576171>The GKC's existence actively harms the physical space and only benefits developers.Poor goykey sales say otherwise.>They are the only ones seeing any benefit of this at all because they can cost cut instead of releasing a proper physical copy and then use low sales of GKCs to justify no one wanting physical copies because they view them as physical copies.They can have fun selling digital-only games with the lack of "physical space adverting" (read: shelf space on retailers for impulse buyers) that entails, I would love to see them try.>>730576316>GKCs failing means devs view it as physical dying so they have no reason to continue making more "physical" copies when normal physical copies would have still been purchased at normal rates before this due to no controversy.Do please tell publishers to continue doing that, I want to see them crash and burn further.
>>730576397>Poor goykey sales say otherwise.You are literally missing the forest for the trees here. Poor GKC sales reflects on the physical market as no one wanting physical copies anymore. Developers are not considering the fact that it's the GKC's fault and them being cheapskates, they're considering GKCs are the physical market. When a GKC fails it shows that no one wants physical games.How are you not able to conceptualize this issue? The mere existence of GKCs actively harm the physical space and justify developers trying to stop making physical copies.
>>730576471Even shareholders can only ignore a gorillion "NOBODY WANTS GOYKEYS, THEY ARE NOT REAL PHYSICAL SALES" jewtube videos and twitter posts for so long anon, and ironically enough NDSfags only help this by spreading paranoia about "switch 2 third parties not selling".And yes it matters to even the braindead SE shareholders that are asking heads on plates and for them to drop snoy and focus on what originally made FF good.
>>730576397>Poor goykey salespretty sure there's no actual sales data to prove this
>>730576316while the raw logic is solid you're blatantly ignoring big chunks of the situation to make it fit your argumentoff this alone i can tell you only care about mainstream/AAA goyslop (and yes faglus slop counts as both mainstream and AAA no matter how much you cope about it) because those are the primary and almost only examples using goykeysthe only exception i can personally think of is that one konami idol game which they did on a shoestring budget and in like 6 months to have a switch 2 launch title >>730576471fun fact, japan officially does not consider goykeys physical copies and thus not eligible for backup on their national media vault
>>730576553that third parties keep whining about poor sales on their switch 2 goykeys is not enough proof?
>>730576553I don't believe we have actual sales data but it's reflected in how quickly the prices on them are dropping compared to the normal games (Many of them are on $20-$30 discounts already while even stuff like Cyberpunk is at full price) and you have some of the more niche Japanese companies having a harder time getting them out of their storefronts compared to Switch 1 editions like I believe I said earlier with NIS.>>730576629>because those are the primary and almost only examples using goykeysNIS is using them and they're the definition of niche.
>>730576698>NIS is using them?
>>730576713https://store.nisamerica.com/products/disgaea-7-complete-ewwdo-editionOn a limited edition too.
>>730529935I just wasted 10 bucks thinking buying switch 2 upgrade on my eshop worked on the limited edition.Still fun game though, but it’s doesn’t feel like Rune Factory
>>730576731>nisamericawhy im supposed to care about a dead market?why im supposed to pretend this is a NIS problem when NISA have been saboteur westoid niggers since the PS3 if not earlier?
>>730530698Or you could just buy steam deck
>>730576669>third parties keep whining about poor saleswhere? all i've seen are comments like "sales met expectations"
>>730576806>More expensive than a switch 2.>Less worthwhile exclusives even when counting indies because anything worthwhile is releasing on the switch 2 or even the 1.>The few PC exclusives that exist (mobaslop, csgo, etc) for the freaks that like them don't run on it due to anticheat compatibility.>The few upsides of PC gaming only apply for less than a dozen games (mods) or only matter if you're a piratefag.Why would you waste your money on that slab of ewaste when you can just use the PC you're already shitposting from?

>>730577303Outside amazon angels, nothing I'm aware of.
I'm impressed that this thread lasted this long. Anyway, I'm still upset that Kirby FL's upgrade is 20 bucks, but I might buy it eventually. Part of me is wondering if I should just buy the Switch 2 versions and sell the original. B2G1 sales are a saving grace for me with this system, so maybe I'll bite later. Majogami anon, how much better does the game get after the demo? I wasn't really interesting in playing when I finished it.
>>730554730That game needs a definitive edition that overhauls game systems. A frame rate and resolution bump is not enough to save that hot mess.>>730554661Have you had the chance to try crossplay with this? I've gotten no second opinions on it. I don't feel like double dipping with this game, and I want to play it with a friend.
>>730578254>I'm impressed that this thread lasted this long.The usual suspects are too busy running damage control for the thousand bucks steam goycube leak.
>>730529935Beat Yooka-Replaylee 100% on Switch 2 recently, it was a good time.Only real complaint is that the pagie pieces are a pain in the ass to find and there's no help system to help track them down.The 30 FPS actually runs very well, good frame pacing and responsive controls, compared to many other 30 FPS Switch games that have bad input delay (primarily Unity games).I'm currently playing through Dragon Quest 3 HD-2D (Switch version in performance mode) and just got to Alltrades Abbey after about 12 hours of play.
>>730578254>Part of me is wondering if I should just buy the Switch 2 versions and sell the original.if you care about the load times it's not a completely terrible idea, even the slight cuts to load times help a lot on making games feel far snappier>Majogami anon, how much better does the game get after the demo? I wasn't really interesting in playing when I finished it.nta but the demo is utter and complete fucking ass and actively makes the game look badthen again that's thanks to a lot of the progression being 90% of your moveset which makes the game fun
>>730578350Tbf, the 1000$ steam machine seem bullshit, since Steam rarely have retailer, and reseller usually pushes the price sky high.Like Steam deck in my country is almost double the price i think.
>>730578764nintendo japan had to come out and say the bloomberg claims on a switch pro were bullshitthe fact steam has stayed dead silent over this leak and hasn't cleared the air is extremely suspectif anything the real price may be even worse
>>730529935Wow, I didn't realize the XAX screen was that small. Granted I thought the Switch 2 is too large.On that topic, some people were reporting that their S2 screens were less laggy after updating. Any chance they enabled LCD overdrive or something with an update?
Im looking for a good jrpg, good story and good combat, not being easy af.Not Octopath, i cant stand characters ignoring each other existence and combat is really easy.I was thinking aboutTrails in the sky, tried it at a friends place and story was ok but the world seemed lifeless and combat was kinda boringThe new Trails coming out next weekThe new DQ, didnt tried the demo yet, is the combat ok?DQ XI, everybody saying this is greatFFTactics, a bit differentAny other suggestions?
>>730578916The problem with just asking "a good JRPG" is that it says nothing on what you even want.Forget stuff like how I don't care about rollslop like dark souls but I get addicted to disgaea grinding despite both being RPGs made in japan and thus JRPGs, even within the same series I loved D5 but fucking loathed D6, just like how people can hate sekiro but love elden ring.You list basically tells me nothing beyond the fact you tried a random assortment of fairly mainstream games.
>>730578916The front mission remake is $9 on the eshop at the moment
Is Age of Imprisonment worth it?I played and kind of enjoyed Age of Calamity but the story sucked especially at the end, and there were a lot of grindy missions.Not really a big fan of musous in general but I heard AoI is different, feels more directed and less grindy. Is it true? I only want to get it now because Aonuma said the next mainline Zelda game will be inspired by elements in Age of Imprisonment.Oh and I don't really care about roster crap, I don't need 50 unique playable characters
>>730579865I really enjoyed it. It's very short for a musou, I got 100% in the game after about 40 hours. They've added some new content to it since then in free updates that I haven't played.Link is a zonai construct in the game who can transform into a jet. It's a very cool gimmick, I hope that's where the influence on the next game he talks about comes from
>>730580297Nice
>>730529935- Currently playing Legends ZA, MK World, Wario World and Silksong.Just waiting for something playable this year, or at least some good announcements before my own hype ends.Yes, I bought SF6 and Silksong.
>>730529935>Nothing, I got burned on Kirby Air Riders, it was fun but I'm done for now>Fire Emblem>No, digital is shit unless is free
>>730578916>>730579021Disgaea is still more called a tactical RPG in Japan iirc but I get what you mean anyway. On a similar note, I like pre-Ryza Atelier games while Ryza herself was the worst thing in existence to me.It depends if the anon is looking ultimately looking for something you play in a grid (Fire Emblem, Banner of the Maid, Disgaea, FF Tactics, Live a Live) or something more turn-based with 3 ~ 4 niggas in a row (Pre-Ryza Atelier, Touhou Dream in Arcadia, SMT Vengeance)
>>730578916>good jrpg, good story and good combat, not being easy af.Usually when someone complains about JRPGs being too easy, they're not going to be satisfied with anything in the genre. Most JRPGs are pretty standard difficulty unless they come with difficulty modes that inflate stats. I can't really help you there, if you want to really be challenged. You could get The Last Remnant or something when it goes on sale again. That has a learning curve to it. You might as well play Wizardry or something if you care that much about difficulty.>>730579865The main criticisms I see is that a lot of playable characters are insignificant to the story and just kind of serve as placeholders. The actual game seems to be pretty good, though.
>>730584727Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined has custom difficulty settings where you can change the strength of your party and enemies, the amount of XP / money gained, etc. which is pretty cool instead of the regular "Hard mode = bullet sponge enemies + heavier grind" in JRPGs. But I don't know if there are other titles in this genre that allow the ability to customize the difficulty.
>>730529935>>What are you currently enjoying on your Switch 2 /v/?unicorn overlord, i've just finished mp1 remastered and mp4>>What are you looking forward to, or most excited for in 2026 so far?honestly i wish for a 60 fps patch for all the xenoblade games so i can enjoy em properly>>Did you get anything in the eShop sales?unicorn overlord, hades 2 and soul reaver remasters. prob gonna splurge on xenoblade chronicles de or botw (just got the switch 2, so far its been cool except for the hdmi handshake problems which i solved by disabling one option in the switch 2 settings)
Question. Can you play Mario Party Jamboree with just the pro controller?
>>730573409I was on the same boat too, jumped straight into the Switch 2 after never getting a Switch.I would recommend it, you have a huge catalog of games from the Switch and S2 is going to get more games as time goes on, not to mention several games really benefit from the extra power S2 offers.Though I would also recommend waiting for a sale to save on some money given the current price of both the console and the games.
>>730586468Not him but I'm waiting for the Switch 2 improved edition. Is the news about the screen delay a meme or is it noticeable? I'm not sure I'd notice anything as a normie.
>>730573409its a way more attractive purchase if you never owned a Switch 1.If you got some extra income to burn then go for it
>>730586623I haven't really noticed something particularly wrong about the Switch2's screen either, and I do play time-sensitive games like Muse Dash, Touhou Danmaku Kagura Phantasia Lost or even the occasional shmup like Under Defeat and Angel at Dusk.
>>730585745yes
>>730585745Found my answer. Yes, but there's some mini-games you can't play with the pro controller. It's not as bad as Super Mario Party, where you are forced to use a joycon.
Emerald Rush for Bananza actually looks pretty fun but I don’t wanna pay $20 it
>Get a lot of eshop credit during the holidays>Nothing to spend it on yetFire emblem can't come soon enough
bananza and prime 4 were pretty fun but I'm not playing anything on my switch 2 atm. just waiting for a direct with some announcements right now
>>730587765Yeah, I've got trade-in credit, but I'm waiting on something I actually want to buy. I wish I could use discount coupons on digital goods.>>730587845No Switch games to fall back on?
>>730587891I only replay games once a decade so no, not really. I don't regret getting a switch 2 or anything but yeah I'm just waiting for more games at this point
>>730587986I was more suggesting that maybe there was something that you might pick up in the meantime. Fair enough, though. I'd like to see what's going to be released in the future myself.
>>730588140yeah I got that but I just wasn't really in the mood to replay anything from the switch 1 atm
>>730565768I won't forgive Square Enix for sucking Sony's cock for so long, and unapologetically. But if you're a beta simp that welcomes whores after they are old and busted and suddenly want to settle down, then do you, not a mindset I will ever share.
>>730590753At least their cock sucking is over it looks like.
>>730560516No one cares dude
>>730587765bring those cards back, tyrone
I'm still playing Buccanyar. Shame about the translation because there's a pretty good ship combat JRPG underneath here
>>730591014you cared enough to reply
>>730590753I have no idea what you're rambling about but Sony saved SE when they were in trouble and they are the only option to acquire SE.Nintendo will never ever be the good guy.
I hope Requiem plays great on Switch 2
>>730592412Didn't the footage at TGS show that it runs at 60fps?Watch it on YouTube. It might also be 40fps with VRR because it can look like 60fps captured on camera.
>>730592412I tried to send an email to Capcom, asking if the Switch 2 ports of Resident Evil would support joycon mice but I got the typical reply of "we can't disclose anything that hasn't been officially revealed"It was however confirmed in a japanese interview that Pragmata wouldn't support joycon mice, which is unfortunate.
>>730592398Nintendo will always be the good guy, stay seething and coping tranny.
>>730529935I want replayee so bad but i cant justify the 30fps
>N-Nintendo is the good guy!!!Maybe on planet goy.
>>730573409Absolutely. With the backlog of the original Switch and the performance of the Switch 2, you really get a bang for your buck.>BOTW/TOTK>Odyssey>Kirby series>Xenoblade seriesJust to name a few must haves
>>730595174Need to get the Kirby games
>>730597002Do it. The weakest entry of the Switch line-up is Star Allies and that's still fun. Ranking by must-have>Forgotten Land>Air Riders>Return to Dreamland HD>Dream Buffet>Fighters 2>Star Allies >Clash (you don't need this one)
It's dead, isn't it?
>>730597749>Dream Buffet>Fighters 2He doesn't need those eitherThe online for both is completely dead
>>730599302How do you mess up a GBC clone?>>730599819Fair enough. Though Dream Buffet on a sale is at least a try.
>>730540040They better be a fucking girl
Baten kaitos BOTW and a lil splatfest and Mario kart in between stayed half buzzed on blended scotch and cranberry gingerale all weekend probably try to sober up later today
>>730600051Could be they're just mismanaged. Isle of Reveries is developing incredibly well with an insanely smaller budget and like one guy working on it. It also just looks better in general.
>>730599302Good riddance to be desu
>>730600868Californians are so fucking gay.
anyone here owns switch lite? i have NSW and NSW2 but ive been kinda thinking about grabbing the lite since its so small and i could actually take it places with me.
>>730600868>donating kickstarter money
Post some friend codes
>>730529935>enjoyanJust finished Prime 4. As much as I enjoyed it, fucking hell, they really fucked it up. Serious letdown. One has to wonder how bad it was, so they had to reboot the development twice.>looking forward toMonHun Stories 3. But I will probbaly get the Switch 1 version, fuck fake carts.>eShop saleNuthin. I even skipped Steam sale.>>730591106That looks really interesting.>asia onlyOh come on! Well, it supports engrish, so maybe I will, can't be worse than official troonslations.
>>730584727people claim to want difficulty in jrpgs until they hit EO or old SMT or similar basic bitch walls and then start crying about jrpgs being too grindy instead
>>730602167This guy is a FED
>>730602484>>asia only>Oh come on!This is pretty normal, especially at this point. Most of the more niche games are only getting physicals in Asia or Japanese English releases. Quick recent example is Miasma Breaker.
>>730602548I agree, but I'm not that hardcore. I think the answer is to just do self-imposed challenges.>>730602795I was considering picking that game up, but it honestly doesn't look that interesting.
>>730597749HD Remake When?
just bought thisit's fun and plays really good with a snes controller
>>730602484>asia onlyGet used to it, especially as payment kikes keep trying to ban everything japanese overseas.Start learning japanese and changing your region to JP to buy from the JP eshop.
>>730606043Trve
>>730602795it might not be ai slop but it sure looks like the average ai slop anime gen imagewhich is even sadder
>>730542592based xenoblade 2 pyra.
>Disgaea 7 complete down to 35€>But it's a GKC>But it's never going to hit that price digital eitherFuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck I might as well go for it I guess
>>730529935>new Picross games with Capcom and SNK>18 eurosOh go fuck yourself.
