While I apologize for not making the OP look very descriptive beyond the list of upcoming games, I can still share some thoughts in games I've played this year on the console. Especially some of the "previously thought to be impossible" ports. Dying Light >The entire game + all the previously released DLCs into one game cartridge (unfortunately banned in Europe - beware the Japanese version is censored towards human characters but not the zombies) >While it has a low distance view on the scenery (with some textures like banners taking some time to properly load depending of the situation), it's quite impressive that it makes no compromises on the amount of zombies with no impact on the framerate either. >It even has fan mod levels although they're very janky (with little to no play-test and that includes the people who were in charge of this Switch port) and one of them even gave me the first software crash. Ace Combat 7 >Main game + DLC campaign + OP planes bundled all together in a 16GB cartridge (unfortunately only available in Europe and Japan if you don't live there - JP version has English support btw) / The crossover planes (such as Top Gun) are however not included and have to be purchased on the Eshop. >Runs at 30fps, occasionally slow down when the entire sky (or ground) on screen is filled with explosions. >Graphic quality is a bit down (such as jaggies and a few geometry/foliage pop-up) but weather effects are intact. Pretty much a 1:1 experience of the PC port I played several years back. Kingdom Come Deliverance >Main game + all the DLCs / Language voice packs are available for free on the Eshop. Worth to mention that while the Japanese SKU has English text support, the English voice acting has to be downloaded as a DLC, otherwise you're stuck with the Japanese VAs >The roughest Switch port that I have played so far and I don't mean the (expected) downgraded graphic quality but the random crashes that have been happening once every 8 ~ 10 hours of gameplay, Which is unfortunate because you cannot manually save your progress without consuming a savior schnapp, while it auto-saves solely when sleeping on a bed or reaching at certain points of a (side) quest. Still an immersive and enjoyable game in spite of that particular problem, as I've clocked more than 70 hours on it. I do hope the BC feature of the successor will give the boost to prevent crashes from happening (assuming it's because the game and jank coding really pushes the limits of the OG hardware)

And to show an example of Dying Light that I had to record directly from my capture card, as certain games like this one disable the video feature of the console.

I just can't get into the new Zelda game. It's not that Zelda is the protag, that doesn't bother me, it's that there's no combat or items, just new furniture and monsters as you progress. And summoning monsters to fight for me isn't fun. Which is strange because I play a necromancer in Diablo, but at least in Diablo I can still attack and have other abilities. Anyone else finding the new Zelda to be not their cup of tea? Also, I recently got the Metal Gear collection volume 1 for cheap in an Amazon sale. I'm planning on playing through the games before I gift it out at Christmas. The game I'm most looking forward to is Dragon Quest 3 2DHD but seeing the woke shit infecting it I don't know if I can be bothered now. I don't want to let minor issues affect my enjoyment of an otherwise great game, but I don't want to endorse their fuckery either. I'll probably just end up re-playing the GBC version of DQ3 and try to collect all the medals.

I was playing some of the newer Pokemon games, and if not for their horrible art and weird technical problems I'd say they are easily some of the best in the series. GF just need to stop spending all their time fantasizing over Pokepussy and hire better SWEs. >>1028616 The Switch is basically as powerful as a PS3, don't forget. Lots of pretty games on that system, pic related is one of the later releases from it. But don't start dumping screenshot autism, please. This board has enough.

Sorry for tripleposting goddamn it. I keep fucking up the post. I was playing some of the newer Pokemon games, and if not for their horrible art and weird technical problems I'd say they are easily some of the best in the series. GF just need to stop spending all their time fantasizing over Pokepussy and hire better SWEs. >>1028616 The Switch is basically as powerful as a PS3, don't forget. Slightly more so. Lots of pretty games on that system, pic related is one of the later releases from it. But don't start dumping screenshot autism, please. This board has enough.

>>1028647 >some no-name 'pop culture' site back 2 gg with u

>>1028605 Im tempted to get switch just for splatoon but I need confirmation it is as fun as its potrayed online. I want a fun multiplayer game that I can brainlessly play after work and not tryhard against sweaty players, I don't care about other titles, I just want a quick distraction after work.

Is that Kirby open world game any good? I wanted to give it a try. Any idea how long it is? I'm not in the mood for a 15-hour platformer like Odyssey. >>1028655 >>1028656 Sorry for metafagging, mods can delete my post if wanted It's interesting to see such a big culture shift in this board recently, Anons seem sick of all the "anti-woke" sperging about things that aren't even woke to begin with. Mark going so far as to suggest banning this kind of (You) farming. Any idea what caused this?

>>1028669 Newfags and the occasional leftypol shill.

>>1028669 Its just gotten annoying and keeps killing discussion.

>>1028669 In my honest option, it's likely due to the bad actors associated with the whole "anti-woke" shit since there's a lot of people who just hate on games for the sake on hating on the games. I sympathize with them in the sense that wokeshit is fucking retarded and should be mocked when made. However I also believe in a free market place where developers should be allowed to make the games they want provided they have the resources. That being said, they shouldn't be surprised when said woke games fail and more publishers want to go in a different direction. Generally I think the issue with the "anti-woke" people is that their hatred of the tranny autism blinds them to have some sort of mission objective rather than just being a sucker for the latest grift, It's why I've come to disrespect Mark Kern since the guy is now advocating for censorship of things he doesn't like. Yes, the Call of Duty bullets thing is fucking stupid and should be criticized by people who actually like those games, however to suggest it should be censored goes against everything that GG worked for in the past ten years.

>>1028664 Multi player is fun for a long time, single player is fun for a short time. https://splatoonwiki.org/wiki/Mode#Matchmaking describes matchmaking. >>1028669 Kirby and the Forgotten Land is one of the best Kirbys, but it's not open world. It's Kirby's version of Super Mario 3D Land or Super Mario 3D World. About 10 hours to beat if you don't do extra stuff.

>>1028669 The Forgotten Lands is decently long, even if you're not doing any extra content it's at least 10 hours and if you're clearing out all the game it's easily 25. I'd reckon the Metaphor thread, what a trainwreck that's been. Possibly the Silent Hill 2 thread as well, but people wanting that game to fail goes far beyond 8moe. Some have gone fucking deranged over it being well received, hoping for another Concord style flop.

>>1028669 People want to spit trivia and discuss tangents since this is the only place they can do so safely, to the demise of thread quality. The solution to corporate culture gossip would probably be some kind of infograph summarizing it and a reminder to discuss it in the gamergay thread to clutter as little of a thread as possible. >>1028605 It's the bing bing wahoo machine for me, but I only picked out a handful of games like nintendo world championship, mario golf, mario kart, splatoon 3, ring fit, switch sports, etc.

>>1028758 Yeah, they're called tourists for a reason and shit up objective discussions with a heavy political skew.

>>1028669 There's potential falseflags, retroactive bullshit, and attempted extreme pendulum shifts that make it so you aren't allowed to enjoy anything anymore. Instead of taking an anti-censorship route, a large chunk of the anti-woke crowd is taking an anti-degeneracy/woke route, and woke is a word which can mean literally anything if used improperly.

I really need to get around to jailbreaking my Switch one of these days. I've had the damned thing for years now and half the time I forget I even have it. I think a big part of the problem is those damned controllers feel like shit in my hands, and I've already had to fix them several times for stick drift even with as little as I use it. Would probably use it a lot more if I just chucked the goofy fuckers in the garbage and used a proper game controller. Not asking to be spoonfed, but just in general, is there anything still around kind of like the freEshop - or am I going to have to dig around and find my own games?

>>1028628 I kind of called it, I don't know why they had to make such a tame game featuring Zelda when she's been shown to have fighting skills in a handful of previous games. >>1028887 The stock joycon grip is really bad for some reason. I have some random third party grip and it has more of a grippy material and it curves up towards the triggers so the grip actually rests on your hand. But yeah everyone swears by the Pro controller but those are 70 fucking dollars. 8bitdo makes some real good less expensive universal-ish controllers and they just started putting Hall Effect joysticks in them standard, too. As for pirating games, I have no clue... I was about to ask that too, because I don't really want to pay Nintendo for shit anymore, ha

>>1028887 I only know you need a v1 switch, and not every non-oled model is one. Anything after the v1 needs a hardware mod that costs about as much as a v1 did and doesn't let you toggle legit firmware for switch online any more.

>>1028628 There's a patch that unfucks the macabre of Paper Mario TTYD's script. Fingers crossed that in some months something similar will materialize for the 2DHD trilogy.

>>1028628 I started Echoes concerned about combat and items, and ended Echoes appreciating them. Combat with Zelda starts limited but improves during the game and Echoes ends near top Zeldas for item count. Spin often with R to move fast in combat. As Tri levels up, Zelda can spawn more echoes. Many weak echoes, or few strong echoes. Echoes draw aggro and dispersed attacks from weak echoes leave Zelda less open than focused attacks from strong echoes. Direct echoes to attack targets with ZL. Move them with Bind, so you don't stand by, but direct fights. To reduce their end lag after attacks, erase and respawn them, which keeps you involved. Reverse Bond lets you move yourself by echo movement, and at Lv. 3, Tri can summon echoes at a distance for more combat tactics. Swordfighter Form summons the spirit of Link for traditional combat. Link can arrow, block, bomb, bombchu, charge spin attack, fast spin attack, jump, jump slash, jump spin attack, slash both ways, strafe, sword beam both ways, and triple arrow. Up to 150 might crystals, which an item helps find, can upgrade Link's items and energy bar. Salted Milky Smoothies (Fresh Milk, Rock Salt), Salted Twisty Smoothies (Rock Salt, Twisted Pumpkin), and Salted Tough Smoothies (Rock Salt, Tough Mango) fill the max level energy bar, and 3 accessory items slow depletion at different rates. Echoes also has a glitch to play as Link out of Swordfighter Form. Spoilers ahead, except the final paragraph. 127 echoes are your items, and the 28 accessories, articles of clothing with effects, and more. For returning items, Bombfish are Water Bombs. Reverse bonding a Caromadillo Lv. 2 is the Pegasus Boots. Drippitune is the Song of Storms. Fire, Ice, and Electric Keese created at a distance are Fire, Ice, and Shock Arrows or Rods. Floating objects are the Stepladder. Flying monsters glide Zelda like Cuccos. Flying Tiles are Roc's Cape. Grilled Fish, Meat, and Stuffed Toy are Food to bait enemies. Holmills are the Shovel. Ignizol is the Lantern. Wind Cannon is the Gust Bellows. Objects shield Zelda. Pieces of heart and heart containers return. Bottles do, with 20 bottles. Fairies do, you find 4 fairy bottles. Rocks and pots return as echoes. Some echoes are like new items. Beamos fire lasers. Caromadillos spawn quick and ricochet off enemies and walls at angles. Crows spawn rupees. Clouds let you reach the sky. Redeads scare enemies stunned. Sea Urchins spawn quick for fast attacks and barricade you. Strandtulas spawn strands to climb up sidescroller sections. Some echoes use items. Boomerang Boarblin has a boomerang, Club Boarblin a club, Sword Moblin a sword and shield, Lizalfos a trident. The tactics of each work different on different enemies. Horses also return. You can equip 5 from 26 accessory items. Zora's Flippers to swim faster, Zora Scale to hold your breath for longer underwater, Gerudo Sandals to not sink in quicksand, Gold Sash to not be windblown, Climbing Band to climb ladders and rock walls faster, Goron's Bracelet to carry things faster, Spin Brace to knock back foes that you hit with a spin, Ice Spikes to prevent slipping, Frog Ring to jump higher, Charging Horn to power up your horse's charge, Stone Anklet to reduce knockback, Clockwork Bangle to wind the clockwork key faster, First and Second and Final Mastery to slow energy loss in swordfighter form, Might Bell to sense when might crystals are nearby, Heart Pin and Heart Barrette to make hearts appear more often, Silver and Gold Brooch to make rupees appear more often when breaking objects or defeating monsters, Energy Glove and Energy Belt to increase the likelihood more energy will appear after defeating dark monsters, Survey Binoculars to make smoothie ingredients and monster stones appear more when you break objects or defeat monsters, Fairy Flower and Fairy Fragrance to make fairies appear occasionally when you cut grass or other plants, and Curious Charm to greatly decrease your damage. Echoes has 8 clothing items without Amiibo, the Disguise, Royal Travel Attire, Customary Attire, Silk Pajamas, Dancing Outfit, Cat Clothes, Green Tunic, and Stamp Suit. Some grant abilities. The Silk Pajamas recover your hearts faster as you rest on a bed, the Dancing Outfit increases your spin area, and the Cat Clothes let you speak with cats. 7 heart containers plus 40 heart pieces. 5 stamp cards, the First, Exciting, Thrilling, Exhilarating, and Final Stamp Cards, with 25 stamps, and stamp rewards. 6 automatons, the Techtite, Tocktorok, Gizmol, High-Teku Baba, Roboblin, and Goldfinch. 16 ingredients, the Bubble Kelp, Riverhorse, Refreshing Grapes, Electro Apple, Warm Pepper, Floral Nectar, Fresh Milk, Chilly Cactus, Rocktato, Rock Salt, Radiant Butter, Twisted Pumpkin, Monster Guts, Monster Fang, Tough Mango, and Golden Egg. Eating ingredients restores hearts, and ingredients make smoothies. There are 69 smoothies. 3 sanctions, from Din, Nayru, and Farore, and 10 key items, the Monster Stone, Lovely Pendant, Floral Seashell, Magma Stone, Blastpowder Soil, Happy Clover, Heirloom Katana, Steel Trap, Golden Fan, and Prismatic Music Box. Early as Zelda, I was concerned about combat, and items were few. Over time, both really pleased me. Echoes is the longest overhead Zelda, with the biggest overworld, more quests, many items, and large dungeons. Zelda represents wisdom, and uses echoes with wisdom. She's a wise tactician, not a powerful warrior. Tri has the echo magic, even Deku Scrubs can beat Zelda if Tri can't echo. She's not a courageous braveheart, she hangs back. She's not Link, and she shouldn't be. She's not a Marvel superwoman, who beats up 50 men with martial arts. Zelda wasn't woke, a breath of fresh air in 2024. That's just my opinion.

Also DQ talk reminds me, was there ever a packaged release of DQ123 (the previous remake/ports) that was not this random English/Chinese/Korean version? I'd like a cart with the Japanese version... I know most Switch can change languages but this explicitly lists En/Cn/Kr so I assume it's one of the weird ones that limits it.

>>1028920 >8bitdo makes some real good less expensive universal-ish controllers and they just started putting Hall Effect joysticks Yeah, they and GameSir seem to be in a tight competition for the best budget controller. I ended up getting a Gamesir controller specifically for the Hall Effect joysticks, and because it's cheap enough to be a throw-away if my nieces and nephews wreck it the way they did with my Xbox One controllers. Haven't really put it through it's paces yet, but it feels comfortable enough for the time being. It has Switch compatibility, but I may go with the 8bitdo one next time just to see which I like best. >>1028997 >I only know you need a v1 switch It's been a while since I last checked, but I'm almost certain I got one from the last few batches before the switchover. I've got a RCM jig to go with it - I just never bothered with it the way I did with the Vita. I think part if it is that I see Switch as a portable console and not a livingroom system - but it's too big to be comfortably portable, so I just end up bringing my Vita with me and end up never playing the Switch because the controllers feel terrible in the hands.

>>1028628 >Also, I recently got the Metal Gear collection volume 1 for cheap in an Amazon sale. I'm planning on playing through the games before I gift it out at Christmas. Be aware that the cartridge in the MGS Collection doesn't contain both MGS2 and MGS3, they're download-only. It's primarily why the user reviews, including in Japan, were generally negative. >>1029082 If you want to know if a Japanese game cartridge contains English text, check the Japanese eshop page to see the supported languages (using Dekudeals and changing the region tab to make things simpler for you). If the 対応言語 (taiou keigo) category lacks 英語 (eigo) in the description, then English is absent in all formats (digital & physical). Which is the case for the older Switch ports of the DQ trilogy in your case: https://store-jp.nintendo.com/item/software/D70010000020007 https://store-jp.nintendo.com/item/software/D70010000020010 https://store-jp.nintendo.com/item/software/D70010000020013 Historically speaking, Dragon Quest games always had their Japanese SKUs separate from the rest of the globe. The DQ3 2D-HD remake is the first (mainline) instance to my knowledge that goes against that tradition.

>>1029082 >was there ever a packaged release of DQ123 (the previous remake/ports) that was not this random English/Chinese/Korean version? The 25th anniversary collection on the Wii that remained in Japan.

Mario & Luigi: Brothership leaked. I'm playing Brothership on Ryujinx, with Vulkan and not OpenGL, as OpenGL gradually slows and eventually crashes me. The land mass of Concordia, once stabilized by Connectar from the Uni-Tree, has broken apart into separate islands. Mario and Luigi voyage there to put them back together. Your hub world is Shipshape Island, shaped like a ship. It travels on currents which fork, so you pick which paths to navigate. During travel you spy islands from a targeting reticle then shoot yourself from a big cannon to these islands. Brothership's a less linear Mario & Luigi. After the world breaks, Willma, mother to the poetic Maykit and resolute Billdit, loses them on 2 islands, the wildly lush Twistee and the sprawling jungle Raynforest. You can finish either first. The visual style is Mario & Luigi promo art given life. Animations are expressive, like a cartoon. Paths in environments twist and turn, and stories are silly. On Twistee for example, you carry bug-shy girl Spiralia over insects to her workshop for MaxGlam Wax to fix DJ Dyode's bad hair day, then in a rhythm game you dance on stage with Dyode to revive the Twisten Sprout you climb to reach the stranded Maykit. I'm early, but Brothership's living up to my Mario & Luigi favorite, Superstar Saga.

>>1031442 For some reason I thought Brothership was a remake of Superstar Saga on the GBA.

Switch port of Ryu ga Gotoku (Yakuza) Kiwami just came out. It still feels weird to see a Yakuza game finally hitting on the Nintendo console, let alone no longer seeing the Playstation button prompts. On the technical side, the game runs at 30fps with only the mini-games (such as baseball, darts, bowling) being at 60fps. The port was essentially meant to be launched alongside of the Amazon Prime live action serie in Japan, but I hope the other games (Zero, 3-4-5 and maybe even Dead Souls/OF THE END) will be given proper treatment as well.

>>1031442 Having to click A to select a move during Luigi's turn is making me so angry.

>>1031527 Is there any change or addition?

>>1031442 >I'm early, but Brothership's living up to my Mario & Luigi favorite, Superstar Saga. Is it really? Saga is my favourite of the series but all the other DS releases suck so much ass. The combo attacks are slow as hell and take almost a whole minute to get through, the in the overworld I keep getting fucking interrupted every 2-3 minutes I can freely play the game or even explore. I don't know if I'm just retarded and got filtered but the DS games feel nothing like Saga.

>>1031530 Not from what I've noticed so far, it still has the F-cup substory like shown in my screenshot above, Kiryu can try to ask for Gカップナース〜セクハラ乳淫病棟 to the video clerk (to no avail), and the hostess stuff remains present as well. Just bearing in mind that I bought the port off the Japanese Eshop but I believe it's a global release anyway as the supported languages (English, Japanese, Chinese and Korean) are still the same.

>>1031534 Thinking about getting it because I actually like playing majong

>>1031539 You do realize that there are hundreds of Mahjong games out there, right?

>>1031542 Yeah, but in Yakuza I can actually spend the money in stuff.

Although if you meant changes compared to the OG game on PS2, Kiwami does certain things better (substories are no longer tied by a specific chapter and previously missable for example) just like it does several steps back on other areas such as the heavy grind to make the Dragon Style actually usable. Or the bosses occasionally self-healing when their HP pool reaches a certain threshold which you can counter with a heat action, as purchased skills, but the game doesn't outright tell you this. It was also criticized for looking very much alike to Zero, between the four fighting styles, Shimano boss fight using the Shakedown moveset (which seems to filter the Switch newcomers unsurprisingly), Pocket Fighter, and some other re-used assets. >>1031539 If you aren't familiar with the franchise, just be aware that it's heavily story-focused. The mini-games aren't available before the first two hours in at least.

>>1031544 I know, I already had the game in a Playstation account as a "free" game and already platino it.

>>1031469 Why would you think that when it already got one? >>1031527 >It still feels weird to see a Yakuza game finally hitting on the Nintendo console There was a Wii-U exclusive HD port of PS2 1 & 2 that never left Japan. They also backported 2's combat into 1 so it's no longer clunky.

>>1031542 It seems the interesting Mahjong games on Switch are essentially Japan-only though https://youtu.be/D01ubTuqEQw https://youtu.be/Rb_5lN3H7bI https://youtu.be/xbf_C2nF7vI Not to mention the famous Suchi-Pai franchise https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zL24Ee8DgC0 It doesn't seem like that one Japanese comparison video is on Youtube anymore (from ATARIHAZURE channel if I remember correctly) but I recall seeing the Suchi-Pai games are less censored on Switch than the old PS1 versions, but don't have the full nudity previously present on Sega Saturn (back before CERO was a thing). Too bad I'm currently a brainlet on mahjong whereas I'm fine with shogi. Maybe I should train harder through 51 Worldwide games first. >>1031554 Kinda forgot the HD remaster was present on WiiU as I remembered it on the PS3 instead. That being said, it's mostly how the RGG Studio used to be against porting their games on the Switch console for a long while, citing that it didn't give off an "underground feeling" enough. But I think it was just an excuse for blatant Sony fanboyism until the Playstation situation in Japan was dire enough to change that tune.

If you're playing Brothership and revisit Twistee Island in the Lushgreen Sea, you can play the minigame Concordia Hammer-Rally, where Mario and Luigi swing their hammers to volley a ball to each other. The volleys go faster as your score goes higher. You're rewarded for some scores. The best rewards are at your first 100, a yellow ball to replace the red/green/white ball, and Luck Charm DX which doubles your chance of getting a LUCKY and increases your speed by 1. There is no reward for your 2nd 100. I don't recommend the best rewards on emulator, since stutters can throw off timing. >>1029002 Mods for unrestricted Link combat in Echoes of Wisdom. Unlimited Swordfighter, by KeatonTheBot https://gamebanana.com/mods/546103 Link over Swordfighter, by diegoforfun https://gamebanana.com/mods/548397

>>1031712 Is there a battle ring for boss rushes like in BiS, DT and PJ?

Princess Peach returns in Brothership. Ireen of IDLE, the acronym for a quartet of Concordian kids like Super Mario RPG's Axem Rangers or Paper Mario's Koopa Bros. but good, praises Peach as classy, nice, and refined, and wants to be just like her. Peach giggles with her fingers over her lips, clasps her hands near her chest, and smiles often with an open or closed mouth. Her nonverbal communication is feminine, her disposition cheery, and her voice sweet. She's well-mannered, validating, complimentary, and willing to seek help for tasks she can't do alone. There's no trace yet of the grating girlboss from The Super Mario Bros. Movie. >>1031792 Brothership is long, I'm too early to answer. The last island I explored in Concordia was Merrygo, a circular labyrinth whose rings Mario and Luigi rotate 90° to open new paths. Odds favor a boss rush, since your 3 Mario & Luigis before Brothership had one. Bowser's Inside Story had The Gauntlet and Dream Team and Paper Jam had the Battle Ring.

>>1031898 How is combat?

According to yesterday's live broadcast with Yokoyama from Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio, the Switch version of "Yakuza Kiwami" has sold much better than expected. https://youtu.be/BZ3wOYb1dc0 https://switchsoku.com/soft/sega/106214 >横山：まず「極」馬鹿売れらしいっすよ。よかった。なんか、会社の幹部陣で本数予想してたんですよ。激外しました、僕。ちょっとね、コンサバティブに見過ぎたらしい。マーケティング担当の加藤くんが当ててましたけど、非常に盛り上がって。いやでも、いいですね。20年前ですよ、作ったの、龍が如くの1作目って。で、それが「極」に変わっているけど、「極」だって、もう出してたじゃないですか。わりともう出してから長いし、世界中の人が触れているものだと思ってたんですけど、ま、今回ね、Amazonプライムのドラマとか色んなきっかけがある中で、Switchに。まあもう移植ですからね、あれね。しかもダウンロード専売なんですよ。ていう中で、またもう1回やってもらえるっていうのは、もう、なんかゲーム作っている人間としては嬉しいなって。ゲームのリメイクって難しいですからね。もう1回売るというのは中々。だから、あーよかったと思って。非常に嬉しい気分ですよ。もう1回Switchっていう人も多いんじゃないですかね。俺もダウンロードしちゃいましたからね。なんか持ち運べるっていいですね。 >[DeepL] Yokoyama: First of all, I heard that ‘Kiwami’ is selling like hotcakes. That's good. The executives of the company were predicting the number of units. I missed it by a long shot. I think I looked at it a bit too conservatively. Kato, the marketing manager, guessed it, but it was very exciting. It was 20 years ago when I made the first Yakuza game. And then it was changed to ‘Kiwami’, but even ‘Kiwami’ had already been released, hadn't it? It's been out for a long time, and I thought it was something that people all over the world had touched, but this time, with the Amazon Prime drama and all the other things that happened, it's on Switch. Well, it's already a port, you know. And it's a download-only game. As someone who makes games, I'm very happy that people are playing it again. It's difficult to remake games. It's not easy to sell a game once more. That's why I'm so happy. I'm very happy. I think there are a lot of people who want to play the Switch one more time. I downloaded it too. It's nice to be able to take it with you. Yokoyama still seems to have the assumption that it's mostly double dippers and not a new audience that was reached with this port. Probably a stubborn mentality from a prideful man, especially after his infamous interview a few years back >"Do we want to put a title like this where we're going around and picking a fight with the world and doing all this Yakuza stuff, on a Switch," Yokoyama explained. According to the producer, the family-friendly image of the Switch in its home ground of Japan clashes with the "underground feeling" that Yakuza games project. >"We still kind of think of ourselves as people of the night world, right? We don't want to be like walking around the day with everybody else," Yokoyama said. "Like for us, it's kind of showing this kind of underground feeling. I think the underground kind of feeling is what we want to do." https://archive.ph/bq4Ro There is also a Twitter thread from from RGG's technical director on the Switch port of Yakuza Kiwami https://x.com/YutakaIto_RGG/status/1849416275208069585 >Finally, the Nintendo Switch version of "Ryu ga Gotoku Kiwami" will be released tomorrow (or rather, in a few hours!). This is the first Switch version of the Ryu series, and "Kiwami" is the origin of the story, so if you have never played Ryu before, please take this opportunity to play! Exclusive to download! >Was it around spring? The development of "Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble" was nearing its final stage, and I was checking out the game from my seat. I had already started development on "Ryu 8 Gaiden," but I once again thought that the Switch would be great because I could easily play it on the LCD screen in between work or while waiting for a build. >If you think about it, most of the programmers on the Ryu team have never touched the Switch development environment and only have a rough idea of its specs and features. Therefore, although it may be too late now, we have decided to begin basic research on the Switch within the Dragon programmers, with the Dragon Engine team leader at the center. >I chose "Kiwami" as the subject for verification. The volume is not that large compared to recent titles, and it contains all the basic elements of Ryu, so I thought it would be perfect to use for technical verification. >About a month later, "Kiwami" was moving on the Switch's LCD screen. It was much more beautiful than I had imagined, and I was really moved when I saw it for the first time. >However, it was just a byproduct of basic research by programmers, and at this point there was no talk of commercializing it. >(It would be a shame if it didn't make it into the world when it's so active...) Just as I was thinking that, I was asked if we could do something to match the drama version of Yakuza. >"Hehehe, I wonder if that's the case, but I actually played Kiwami on Switch..." >After that, it all happened in a blink of an eye. Nintendo Switch version “Ryu ga Gotoku Kiwami” Thank you for your support So we have the answer directly from the source: it's a full in-house port, development started only this spring and RGG never really made anything for Switch beforehand. It also makes it clear that it's a first step and not an one-off project tied to the TV drama show.

>>1032043 Battles in Brothership are the best in Mario & Luigi, maybe in all Mario RPGs. It's the classic system with optional extras that build on the foundation without taking it over. Enemies are visible on the map. Whether the first strike's yours, theirs, or unclaimed is like an action RPG, then battles are turn-based, with action commands. Your party's Mario and Luigi. Enemies attack either or both each turn. These are timing patterns and you respond in 1 of 4 tiers: stand, block, dodge, or counter. F tier: Distracted or forgetful? Stand for full damage. B tier: Don't understand? Block with Emergency Guard for less damage. A tier: Understand? Dodge by jumping over for no damage. S tier: Understand well? Counter by bouncing or hammering for counter damage. Skill, risk, and reward go up each tier. To hammer or jump use A for Mario and B for Luigi. Enemies can attack various ways and fake out of known timings into unknown timings. Each pattern has signs, which reward player attention with how to counter. Harder enemies use compound attacks where to counter each part fully counters the whole. On your turn, your basic attacks are Jump and Hammer. Each now combos with both brothers. Jump 3-combos, Hammer 2-combos. Whether Jump's ABA or BAB, and Hammer AB or BA, depends on which brother initiates. This changes attacks, timings, and animations for each combo. Your special attacks are Bros. Attacks, longer timing minigames with both brothers. Each brother has Bros. Attacks only he can initiate, such as Mario's Hatch Me if You Can, a react then aim minigame to hatch Yoshi to attack, or Luigi's Zapperator, which alternates buttons to charge a lightning storm he calls down on the field. Brothership introduces Battle Plugs, special gear made from Lumenade gathered from collectible Sprite Bulbs. You can set 2 Battle Plugs in the Power Tap to improve your moves in battle or grant other advantages. Coinpiler causes enemies to drop coins each time you damage them in proportion to damage dealt, Empower Counters turns jump counters into ground pounds and charges up hammer counters to do an extra 30% damage, and Performance Bonus restores 50% of BP used on a Bros. Attack that earns an EXCELLENT rating. Some Battle Plug combos have unique effects. Iron Ka-Ball (Kaboom Attack, Surprise Iron Ball) drops iron balls on all monsters hit by the impact wave. Dizzy Burn (Dizzifying Attack, Fiery Attack) spins flames into a fire tornado with higher damage that leaves Dizzy and Burn effects. Battle Plugs, like Gimmicks from Tomato Adventure, have a use limit then a recharge period. A Battle Plug like Boomerang Items, which returns used items to your inventory, is balanced by few uses and many recharge turns. The brothers and enemies have more spirited battle animations. Each area has a battle background, or battle environment as idling shows the battle from 4 perspectives: the side zoomed out, party-facing, the side zoomed in, and enemy-facing. Boss battles on rare turns have exclusive minigames, similar to Bros. Attacks, that use the battleground to deal more damage to the boss. The battle system entices me to seek fights, not skip them, especially against newer enemies I rarely battled.

>>1032138 Thanks for your effort answer. When AlphaDream died, I guessed another Mario and Luigi game would happen when pigs fly. A screen of yours has a flying pig, and there's the game. Looks nice too.

I'm actually playing it on PS5 (so I can share it with a friend) but the Romancing Saga 2 remake is actually really good, and it's on Switch too if you can handle the lower performance obviously. It addresses my main concern with re-releases of older titles, like the remastered version of Romancing Saga 2 that was released years ago, in that they don't come with a fucking manual. So many old games contain necessary information on game features and functions in the manual and modern remasters don't fucking have them and it sucks. This new remake has simple tutorial screens that explain shit like glimmering (learning new skills) and formations and other things so I'm not looking up a guide on how to actually play the fucking game.

>>1032306 Is the Romancing Saga 2 remake under 60 hours? That decides my buy. The remake does look really good, but as an older adult, busy with responsibilities, I can't spare 100 hours for epic JRPGs anymore. My Switch accompanying me helps, I can game two hours a day on Switch instead of an eighth of that on PC, but over two months on one game would hog my free time.

>>1032540 An hour a day I mean, not two. Well, less than an hour on weekdays, around 2 hours on Saturday and Sunday.

>>1032540 I'm not sure how long it is, I'm really taking my time with it since I'm enjoying it. As a turn-based RPG it does respect your time and doesn't demand constant attention. I'll let you know how long it takes me to finish it. I checked HowLongToBeat and it doesn't have data for the remake yet but the original clocks in at about 50 hours including side content.

https://youtu.be/pqIJQevQGjc According to a note on the Japanese official website, Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition is based on the western WiiU version of Xenoblade Chronicles X. Whether that means it maintains the old censorship (with the breast slider removed and loincloth costume altered) is up to be seen.

>>1032897 >Whether that means it maintains the old censorship (with the breast slider removed and loincloth costume altered) is up to be seen. Don't be naive anon, that's exactly what it means. Nintendo is going "modern audience" on us.

>>1032897 >Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition is based on the western WiiU version of Xenoblade Chronicles X Another game forever dead to me.

>>1032939 You could just emulate the Japanese Wii U release.

>>1032935 I'm not niggerpill but rather than release two versions for different regions they're taking the easy way out which is the path of least resistance, and unfortunately we all know who "the resistance" is the mainstream media and their corpo bootlickers

You guys wanna use this thread for when they announce the Switch 2?

>>1034785 It will happen during a Direct which will have it's own thread.

>>1034785 I don't see why not as I don't believe the successor will be much different in concept, in addition of the backwards compatibility for an already massive library of games.

>>1034808 >I don't see why not as I don't believe the successor will be much different in concept, Isn't it already confirmed that the Switch 2 is using the same chipset?

>>1034808 Yeah, I'm actually kinda interested to see how this will play out, since I don't think Nintendo has any idea what it's doing with the Switch 2. With the original Switch the gimmick was that you can play all your favorite console games on the go, but now what are they doing to differentiate itself from the rest of the market? Even something like the Steam Deck has those weird touchpads and gyro sensors for additional inputs, although Valve hasn't asked any developer to take advantage of its unique input set, which is a shame since I think they could do something really cool with the extra buttons and trackpads. Still, I think there's no point of Nintendo making their own hardware if they're just going to rehash some ARM chips and call it a day. Even Sony is opening up to the idea of releasing their games outside of the PS5, although I think that's mainly due to corporate mismanagement.

>>1034811 Nothing's confirmed other than that it has 12GBs of RAM and that it uses an NVidia chipset.

>>1034812 >With the original Switch the gimmick was that you can play all your favorite console games on the go It's more than that, the Switch was the culmination of 20 years of R&D from Nintendo ever since the Gamecube was being developed. The Gamecube was designed to be as portable as possible, had a handle to be carried from one place to another, and even had an in-built screen at some point in development(can be seen at E3 2002). Then there was also the GBA that allowed you to connect it to the Gamecube and act as a second screen and controller(these ideas would later be developed into the WiiU). Then there was the Wii and the motion controller would be refined into the Switch controllers. The DS line was initially supposed to be a third pillar of Nintendo running in parallel with Wii and Gameboy Next, but it was so successful that it killed Gameboy. Touch screen controls were tested here, and the 3DS brought gyro aim, all elements found in the Switch. The WiiU was a failed attempt at creating the hybrid home console portable console that the Switch would become, but it kinda tried to continue the gimmick of two screen from the GBA/GB combo and DS line. As I said the Switch is the culmination of a lot of things Nintendo tried and learned, so I am not exactly sure what they will try with a Switch 2. Maybe they will try a 2 screen combo again, like the DS, if foldable screens were more affordable, I wouldn't have been surprised that this was going to be their next attempt at a hybrid console, maybe for the Switch 3.

>>1034817 >3DS brought gyro aim Small correction on this, the 3DS had built-in gyroscope, as there were a handful of Gameboy and DS games that had gyro controls, but the sensors were built in the game cartridge, not game console.

>>1034815 Was the Chyna leak bogus? I thought we were getting Switch, but with magnetic joycons? Image unassociated.

>>1034819 >sexualizing the Luca

>>1034812 >With the original Switch the gimmick was that you can play all your favorite console games on the go That was already more or less the appeal of the Playstation Portable and its ability to play games alike to the ones on home consoles (with the ports too) to be fair. Nintendo also places a lot of importance on it partnership with third-parties, which can be seen on the Japanese Nintendo blog (and in the embedded screenshots above) and directs, cementing my belief that the company isn't going to reinvent the wheel for the successor at the very least.

>>1028605 Was Mario and Luigi Brothership really as bad as IGN said it was? or were they just mad that it wasn't a tranny game.

>>1034833 They shouldn’t have made an anime mascot, or any mascot really, if they wanted to avoid this. Or perhaps used AI to generate some non Euclidean shape that is physically impossible for humans to draw.

>>1038624 Nah, I pulled up the 78 reviews of Mario & Luigi: Brothership on Metacritic and IGN rated it the lowest, their review's literally at the bottom. IGN's being contrarian so people talk about IGN. It's generally favored by critics and users. 8/10 in critic reviews, higher in user ratings. >>1038626 Luce as a Jubilee mascot was good publicity that kept the Catholic Church in the news. They did put a modest rainjacket on her.

>>1038633 Ah, well have you played it Anon?

>>1034841 Still different from playing the same save data on the go and rebuying your games.

Hey /v/. So I bought Animal Crossing, My Sims Cozy Bundle, and Tears of the Kingdom for Black Friday but I don't have a Switch. Should I buy the OLED model or wait until the Switch 2 comes out (which may not be good and has a small chance of not being backwards compatible)? Are the games I bought worth it?

>>1044608 >Should I buy the OLED model or wait until the Switch 2 comes out (which may not be good and has a small chance of not being backwards compatible The president of Nintendo already announced it will be backwards compatible.

>>1044613 So wait then?

>>1044613 >it will be backwards compatible Who says that means physical cartridges?

>>1044674 That would be gay, but at least hacking it will ensure at least you get the Switch's library.

>>1044608 I bought it with the mario kart 8 bundle and bought mario rabbids sparks of hope

>>1044608 If you like those kinds of faggy games, I guess.

>>1044608 If you want a switch now, get a v1 model used and crack it when the switch 2 comes out. That said, its probably just weeks away so it's better to wait.

>>1044976 >Animal Crossing >My Sims Cozy Bundle >sparkly female avatar <durr faggy You're the homolusting fag for bugging femanons out of your shitplunged sausagefest you dancing dandy.

>>1044608 >Should I buy the OLED model or wait until the Switch 2 comes out That depends on how long you are willing to wait to play your new games. There hasn't been any announcement about when Switch 2 is being released, but some people speculate that it will happen next summer. Others claim it will happen next March. So if you choose to hold off on buying an OLED, you could be waiting all winter and potentially all of spring to play the games you bought. >Are the games I bought worth it? If you enjoy the Animal Crossing series or similar games, then I'd say it was a worth it whether you play it now or later. Tears of the Kingdom is also worth waiting to play, since you could potentially be playing the game for many hours if you are looking to collect everything. If you avoid spoilers that will make it even more worthwhile. My Sims is an odd series but not terrible, so if it caught your eye then it is worth playing too. >>1044613 >>1044674 Here is the archive of the tweet. https://archive.md/tAyP5 <At today's Corporate Management Policy Briefing, we announced that Nintendo Switch software will also be playable on the successor to Nintendo Switch. Who knows if they mean software as in digital software copies only, but there is a chance they really do mean every physical and digital purchase will play on the Switch 2.

>>1044980 If you think Konata is used by femanons, you're delusional.

>>1044614 A, what will Switch cost? B, what might you earn selling Switch when Switch 2's here? C, what's A-B? D, when might Switch 2 come out? E, what time's between now and D? Is the cost of C worth gaming for E? Yes=buy, no=wait. >>1044985 Blackpillers blackpilled Switch won't have backwards compatibility. Furukawa confirmed it will, now they blackpill software-only. Switch 2's not just a hardware refresh like PS5 Pro, Switch games sell gangbusters, their backwards compatibility was always physical, and the production cost of backwards compatible cart readers is under profit Nintendo can make off physical sales. Switch 2 will be fine.

>>1044988 Physical backwards compatibility does seem to be the most likely outcome. Like you said, Nintendo can afford it, since Switch games and the Switch itself are still successful on the market. Plus, I doubt the Switch 2 will be some massive leap in terms of design and method of use; Nintendo is probably looking to increase performance and graphics instead. So making a product that can be backwards compatible with the original Switch shouldn't be too difficult since the consoles are likely going to be similar. And if they really intended to make the Switch 2 backwards compatible with digital purchases only, Furukawa would probably have said so specifically. It would cause some frustration among some customers, but it's not something worth being secretive about. Most customers would still buy the Switch 2 regardless.

>>1044950 Sparks looked dumb as hell then I played it and now count it in my favorite turn-based strategy games.

>>1045005 She looks female since Cursa created her as a biological female, there's no male "before." Her design's dumb but not propaganda.

>>1044987 The Morning Consult survey from 2022 has anime 3:2 male:female and Gamer Motivation Profile from 2020 has men preferring man avatars 7:3 and women preferring woman avatars 3:1. Nintendo Switch is 1:1 male:female, GDC 2023 has The Sims 1:3 male:female. Animal Crossing's 1:1. Don't know for TotK, maybe 3:2 men:women. "All 3, no others" is more womanly than any 1. Women like sparkly things, and men deciding for them. Probably a femanon, he/she can confirm/deny.

>>1045018 >Animal Crossing >1:1 male:female Doubt

>>1044993 It's not about them being able to afford it, it's about them being incredibly greedy which they are

>>1045015 The joke isn't trannies but the fact they decided to make the female rabbids "sexier" with a few minor alterations.

>>1045023 The Animal Crossing data's from 2020. I'm open to newer data, if it shifted.

>>1045032 2020 was 4-5 years ago Anon, a lot of women bought Switch for Animal Crossing since then.

>>1044988 >>1044993 The similarity of the consoles did assure backwards compatibility before Furukawa confirmed. Switch 2 to Switch isn't like Super to 64, it's like GameCube to Wii, which have very similar PowerPC processors, Gekko and Broadway. The Wii processor's roughly 67% more powerful, but it's a supercharged GameCube processor. Wii was backwards compatible with GameCube discs when Wii discs were 50% longer, Switch cart compatbility should be easier.

>>1045034 I'm a man and bought the Switch for Animal Crossing.

>>1045018 >comparing random general statistics and surveys to a niche anonymous video game imageboard Wew

I'm starting to get baffled by the lack of ANY Switch 2 news from Nintendo. No announcement this year at all? The Switch is going to be an eight year system? Traditionally consoles are announced well over a year in advance, is their plan to announce it and release it the same quarter?

>>1046577 Nintendo doesn't want to cannibalise this holiday's Switch sales by announcing a successor. They already announced they will announce the successor before the financial year is out. If it's anything like the first Switch it will be revealed in January and released in March.

>>1046586 I'd be surprised if they release it by March. I'd probably expect it to be released around fall/winter of next year. The original Switch's release date kinda came out of nowhere imo (in part possibly due to desperation/necessity with how horrible Gen 8 went for them) and really was carried off the back of an eye-catching high budget launch title, easy to understand gimmick, and good marketing to move its first year (and growing and eventually exploding after that), if they tried that again without a similar strategy, I'd expect results that, while probably initially okay in terms of sales just because of how much brand power the Switch restored to them, it wouldn't look like what you would expect off the back of a massive success in the Switch. (Basically Nintendo wants what happened with PS1 -> PS2 for themselves, but if they're not careful they could do what the PS3 did instead)

OP here. Yakuza Kiwami could have been part of my Top 3 most played this year on Switch if the countdown didn't end abruptly before December (in which I've also completed both MGS2 and MGS3 HD). I don't exactly understand why the twelfth month is left out while not releasing the 2024 review in January instead.

>>1055236 Do you not have a PC?

>>1055238 I do but the sole releases I've bothered on PC this year were Earth Defense Force 6 and Lies of P, and those are games I will be very likely double-dipping once they're released on the Switch 2. EDF6 has the higher play count as a singular game (a bit over 100 hours) but most of my playtime this year has once again been the Switch itself.

>>1055267 I have a PC and the Switch and most of my playtime has been the Switch too, because Switch is mobile and so am I. I'm not in my house or one place often and like to boot games that just work on the go.

>>1055322 I alternate between portable and home console depending of the situation, but both the portability and hybrid functions have become far too convenient that I can't see myself prioritizing PC (outside of the rare games skipping the console). Another big advantage is the games being noticeably cheaper through the Japanese Eshop than on Steam, at least for simultaneous multiplatform releases.

>>1046650 Unless you expect a good amount of remasters this year, the Switch doesn't have a year left.

>>1028605 >Feel free to share what you are looking forward to. Looking forward to Metroid Prime 4 and Pokemon Legends: Z-A in 2025. Metroid Prime 4's the exclusive I looked forward to most, the Metroid Prime Trilogy's a favorite trilogy, wanted a new Metroid Prime since 3.

>>1056436 My most anticipated Switch exclusive for '25 is Professor Layton and the New World of Steam, by Level 5. It's a sequel to Unwound Future (I beat Unwound Future on my Nintendo DS) and New World of Steam has everything I want (Layton, puzzles, riddles, steampunk). It begins with a mysterious incident in Steam Bison. The antagonist they showed in the Sep 24 trailer, Gunman King Joe, is the ghost of a gunslinger lost to the relentless march of American industrialization, not a common antagonist concept.

>>1056436 Those are the two I'm looking forward to as well. I'm also hoping there's a new Zelda in the works for the Switch 2 and that it's been in development for a while and that TOTK was mostly the B-team doing a tick/tock development cycle with the BOTW engine and assets.

Switch 2 got a reveal trailer with further info being available on the next Direct in April

>>1061500 What a lackluster reveal trailer.

>>1061500 Using this thread since the other's ruined. Game announcements come later I assume, unless that's a new Mario Kart? Coolest CGI I've seen in a reveal, comes out 4.2.2025.

>>1061500 I'm glad they're still so fucking retarded that they're directly repeating their greatest failure in history and destroying the tens of billions they just earned.

>>1061507 How exactly?

>>1061507 They learned, Switch 2's named like PlayStation 2, not Wii U. No one will think a Switch 2's a Switch.

>>1061509 >>1061510 >looks identical to the previous console >named identically to the previous console >parents will have no comprehension of this >Switch 2 games being bought for Switch; kids mad; parents mad >new joycons won't work with the old Switch; parents mad Don't say I didn't warn you.

>>1061511 You're making up non-problems, PlayStation 2 games weren't bought for PlayStation and Switch 2 games won't for Switch. Nintendo scrapping Switch branding, their most successful brand, would be the failure. This announcement has every console warrior gone mad.

>>1061510 Reminds me a bit, of when Microsoft decided against naming the Xbox 360, the Xbox 2, because it would have gone against the PS3, and since two is smaller than three, it would have appeared as if the Xbox 2 was inferior to the PlayStation 3, so they named it the 360, which also has a 3. You might think, this is insane, but American consumers are something special when it comes to math. >>1061511 And yet parents and normlafags in general had no problems distinguishing games for PlayStation 2 as opposed to just PlayStation.

>>1061502 I sorta think the reveal happened due of the recurrent but surprisingly accurate leaks about the design. There were photos circulating from chinese workers a while back and I remember the the design of the kickstand, joycons and dock. >>1061506 Backwards-compatibility was once again confirmed but the official website stated some may not be fully supported, like I assume the use of the right joycon's IR sensor or the Labo shit that relied on the original joycon design iirc. And probably also because they don't know for sure if a game wont work considering there's billions of switch games on the Eshop and such thus no way to test them all. I'm more curious to know if BC does enables performance boosts on the Switch 1's games (at least to reach a stable framerate - games such as Resident Evil 6, Age of Calamity, Earth Defense Force 4.1 or Serious Sam 3 could greatly benefit it) because that would be a strong argument to buy the system at release day.

>>1061511 >says they're repeating their mistakes <then brings up completely different issues to what their previous problems were It looks like the Switch because it's a Switch successor. It's named the Switch 2 because it's a Switch successor. Playstation is already on their fifth new console with this naming scheme, I don't think there will be much confusion among parents, especially since parents of this generation are a lot more likely than past generations to be/have been gamers themselves. The joycon shit is irrelevant. >>1061514 The Xbox 360 was a far better name than the Xbox 2 imo. Switch 2 is a pretty uninspired name; I'm surprised they didn't come up with something more creative but I guess it doesn't matter too much.

>>1061511 >Switch 2 >Named identically Anon you're making an issue wherevthere is none

>>1061522 Switch 2's named well for sales. Xbox 360, One, and Series were shit names and shit communication to casuals of what's being sold. Wii U was a shit name too. PlayStation 2's a good name. Switch 2's a good name.

>>1061515 >certain switch games may not be fully compatible with switch 2 I wonder what they removed.

I'll get one if it has interesting exclusives. Switch has interesting exclusives and Switch 2 should as Switch releases wind down since Nintendo's known to hold back finished games for timed releases. Library near launch should excel. I'm interested for rooting/piracy too, as Switch 2 runs Switch games, and should be able to emulate every Nintendo system before. My PC's powerful and struggles with some Switch emulation. Rather have games native.

>>1061524 >Xbox 360 was a shit name Dunno what you're on about. It sold the best that Xbox ever had to this day and blew their old console out of the water. The number "360" is a good number as well, people know what that number associates with and it's got natural appeal.

>>1061515 >Backwards-compatibility was once again confirmed but the official website stated some may not be fully supported, like I assume the use of the right joycon's IR sensor or the Labo shit that relied on the original joycon design iirc. Incompatibilities should only be for niche Switch functions, I'll eat my hat if fewer than 99% of Switch games are backwards compatible as Nintendo already confirmed general backwards compatibility.

>>1061529 And the PlayStation 2, named like Switch 2, sold 160 million, over even Switch's 146 million. Xbox 360 sold 84, would've been more without the shit name.

>>1061525 I don't think anything will be cut, the PS5 has something similar that just means certain games have glitches playing on PS5.

>>1061506 >Using this thread since the other's ruined How?

>>1061534 You're suggesting that the Xbox 360, which already sold more than 3 times it's predecessor, would've sold more if it was called the Xbox 2? The original Playstation sold 100 million as it was, that's a massive advantage that the original Xbox never had. Why would people buy the successor to a console that was only barely above a flop? Not to mention the PS2, Xbox 360, and the PS4 are the only direct successor consoles in history to sell more than their predecessors (the third one happening more due to lack of competition), every other successor console has sold less than their predecessor. >PS3 sold less than PS2 >PS5 sold less than PS4 >SNES sold less than NES >GBA sold less than the GBC >3DS sold less than the DS >XB1 sold less than the 360 >XBX sold less than the XB1

>>1061554 >Something sold good >Therefore it couldn't have sold better named better >Unrelated numbers Anon, you're even dumber than the name XBox 360.

>>1061534 The 360 sold about as much as the PS3 did(84 million vs 87.4 million), so I think it's ridiculous to assume, that it would have sold even more if it was named Xbox 2.

>>1061557 >can't comprehend what an outlier is Nah, you're dumb. Those aren't "unrelated numbers". Everyone loves to be an armchair businessman on /v/ when most people don't know jackshit. In this case, the name change was clearly a sound business decision. People barely knew what an Xbox even was until the 360.

While I am a bit sorry, that the discussion got derailed like this, it's not like there is much to talk about the Switch 2 anyway, not until we get hardware specs and the launch lineup. >>1061565 To add to this, another thing that shows how good the name was, is the fact that just saying "the 360" on most game forum, is enough for people to understand what console you are talking about. If I were to say Xbox One, some people would be confused if I am talking about the OG Xbox, or the Xbone(M$, really wanted people to call their console "the one", but instead it gold labeled the xbone). Series X is even worse, like what do I even call it, the xbox? sexbox?

>>1061560 They're completely unrelated and you're fucking retarded. Randomly comparing how different consoles sold shows how consoles sold, completely unrelated to if consoles would have sold better if factor X differed. You don't understand because you're literally retarded. I'm not shitposting, you're an ape and your brain's actually garbage. XBox One and XBox Series X being dumber names doesn't mean XBox 360 isn't a dumb name. XBox 2 would be better.

>>1061587 >Randomly comparing how different consoles sold It's not random, those were consoles of the 7th gen, and constantly went neck to neck during the "console war" of that era. Whenever someone bought a console, that could have meant that he would not have been able to buy the other one as well, so it was important to sell as many consoles as they could. Out of curiosity, if Microsoft were to make a new console for a new generation, and they asked you to pick a great name for the newest member of the Xbox line, what name would you pick?

>>1061591 Not that guy, but I'd just call it the Xbox 5. People would be confused because they don't even understand that the Xbox Series X is different from the Xbox One X, and think there are only three generations of Xbox. But Xbox 5 would be accurate and also make people think they're doing a huge leap and skipping a whole generation. Actually, maybe stylize it with roman numerals. Call it the Xbox V. That sounds like the type of retarded shit MS would do. They'd want people to call it the XV, and people would think it's the 15th Xbox due to all the things like Xbox One S and Xbox Series S, which nobody actually understands what they are.

>>1061597 >but I'd just call it the Xbox 5 You're fi- >Call it the Xbox V. >They'd want people to call it the XV, and people would think it's the 15th Xbox Double this guy's salary.

>>1061530 Yeah I wouldn't worry too much, I think the affected games are titles that relied on gimmicks specific to the first Switch. Something like Ring Fit Adventure which need the OG joycons (that are probably compatible with the Switch 2 through bluetooth but newcomers won't have these) for instance. Speaking of Switch games, I've done Ruiner and Ender Lillies this month so far. The latter is getting a sequel this late January. Likely to get the OL action shooter next month as I did enjoy the demo.

>>1061658 There had better be a sequel to Ring Fit Adventure that is even better, then, because that game is awesome and I have not found a better game that actually uses your body motions effectively. They've been trying to do it since the Wii (really earlier, with things like the EyeToy), and this is the only game that does it very well.

>>1061658 Shame the studio that made Ruiner is basically dead.

>>1061513 >PlayStation 2 games weren't bought for PlayStation >>1061514 >And yet parents and normlafags in general had no problems distinguishing games for PlayStation 2 as opposed to just PlayStation. You mean the consoles that looked completely different and couldn't possibly be confused for one another? Gee, I wonder why.

>>1061703 Wii U is a very different name from Wii 2. Also, the actual Wii U console looks very much like a Wii, and one could easily think that a "Wii U" was actually just a new controller with a screen on it. If they had called it Wii 2, though, that probably would have solved the problem.

>>1061703 >You mean the consoles that looked completely different and couldn't possibly be confused for one another And yet people had no problem distinguishing a 3DS from a regular DS, even though they look mostly the same. Or are you saying, that because it had a "3" instead of a "2", that was the reason why it worked, and they should have called the next "Switch", "3Switch" or something? Next you are going to claim, that the reason the Vita flopped, wasn't because the high price, the memory cards, the zero advertising from Sony, but because it looked too much like a regular PSP and was called a Vita, like THAT was it's Achilles' heel.

>>1061711 Also, 3DS did sort of flop at first, and I wonder if it was because people thought it was just a regular DS but with 3D. But of course you'd want the name to highlight that it's 3D, so I don't know what a better name would be. DS 3D wouldn't be any better.

>>1061713 That was it's because of it's high initial price, and no good games. They slashed about 1/3 of it's price tag(from 250$ to 170$) in less than 6 months from it's release and also got Monster Hunter in December of 2011, then it sold well. It had barely anything to do with it's name.

>>1061711 This but unironically. The Vita flopped because it was a PSP with a hardware upgrade and nothing else.

>>1061750 <The PS4 flopped because it was a PS3 with a hardware upgrade and nothing else. Oh wait, it outsold the PS3 by over 30 million units.

>>1061506 it doesn't come out on April but we might get a ralease date on April, also the new Mario kart seems to be a launch title so I don't expect that thing to drop on Switch 1 the same day as Switch 2, I expect a 3-6 month exclusivity period. the silk song team also referenced the date and some people believe Silk Song might be a launch title for Switch 2 as well which weird because I'm pretty sure all trailers stated that Silk Song would be multiplat since day 1

>>1061752 You're comparing a home console to an oversaturated handheld market. Apples to oranges.

>>1061755 >oversaturated handheld market It was just the 3DS vs the Vita, phones were still a meme back then. >inb4 there were a billion Chinese handhelds that played NES and SNES games, so clearly the market was over saturated. Yeah sure, a portable SNES emulator really took a bite from the Vita's marketshare, good thing something like that didn't exist with the PS4 and PS3, oh wait, there are also a million chinese "home consoles" that play NES and SNES games, plus the entire PC market. I'd say I'm comparing green apples to red apples.

>>1061759 >phones were still a meme back then What are you, retarded?

>>1061766 Wait, are you actually saying that Iphone and Galaxy S took a significant bite out of the Vita's marketshare? That they overcrowded the portable game marketshare? Are you retarded?

>>1061767 That and the fact that the DS and PSP were massive successes to the point you could find one in every household. Vaseline filters don't work so well on tiny screens, so you didn't miss anything by not upgrading and smartphones were grand new thing to buy into instead. I'd ask if you've been living under a rock but it's safer to assume you're just locked in a weebcave.

>>1061774 Ok, and how does that differ with the PS4 and PS3? PC games were increasingly taking large chunks of the marketshare from the consoles, PS3 and 360 were "massive successes to the point you could find one in every household", the PS4 was just a PS3 with better hardware, yet it sold more than the PS3. Tell me how exactly is this comparing apples to oranges, because to me, it's exactly the same situation, with one selling more than the predecessor(PS4), while the other sold less(Vita), even though both were just "a hardware upgrade and nothing else" and were in a "saturated market" with phones in the portable market and PCs in the non-portable market.

>>1061777 lrn2read >how does that differ with the PS4 and PS3 <Vaseline filters don't work so well on tiny screens >with phones in the portable market and PCs in the non-portable market <smartphones were grand new thing to buy into instead

Can you guys move the console naming stuff to another thread? Thank you.

>>1061781 Ok, so you are retarded, thank you for clarifying it for me. >>1061783 Since you asked so nicely, I will stop.

>>1061783 Here you go >>1061794

I just wanna play mysims but none of the nsp files I'm finding will open in suyu, what gives?

>>1062022 >I just wanna play mysims And you're not playing the Wii or PC version because...?

>>1062022 Update firmware and keys

>>1062025 because handheld >>1062030 well now I get black screen it's a brand new port so I shouldn't have expected this to work

>>1062045 Ryujinx has better compatibility, try Ryujinx.

>>1062046 android.

>>1062047 New games can break, try changing graphics backend and experiment in settings.

>>1061528 >I'm interested for rooting/piracy too, as Switch 2 runs Switch games, and should be able to emulate every Nintendo system before. Isn't N64 emulation unstable?

>>1062053 Used to be, it's pretty good now.
