>>1675092 Maybe it's okay for people to dislike things? You could just ignore the videos that you don't agree with.
>>1675491 Reminder to do the battery calibration thing on the new battery.
>>1675092 Just don't waste your time on these fags, anon. I play MKW almost every day with my friends and we really enjoy it. It's great game.
>>1675131 >>1675499 Way to miss the point. >>1675092 >I don't even care other people don't like it, I'm just going mental not finding ANY conversation that isn't saying the same things over and over.
Trails in the Sky Switch 2 version announced and you can buy upgrade. Nice. https://trailsfirstchapter.com/product/#switch2
>>1678930 Way cheaper than Nisa as well. Also the prologue demo is out on all platforms right now. You can play the whole prologue.
I can't find an .nsp for this anywhere Help

Did you fags just die
>>1675491 Oh, so it actually is removable. Good to know.
>>1696777 It's glued by a single square of glue IIRC. Decently easy to remove if you are careful.

>>1696421 I've been busy as of late to be fair. That's said I finally finished Donkey Kong Bananza last week after being distracted by the various games bought during the summer Eshop sale (Crow Country, Stubbs the Zombie, LA Noire, Shine Post, etc.). It was definitely a good game that I enjoyed better than Mario Odyssey from the same internal team. The fakeout credits followed by the pillar fight got me grinning like an idiot I also did the Japanese demo of Trails in the Sky remake which is another game I'm looking forward but I've plenty of RPGs left in my backlog so this is quite a dilemma. Demo is the Switch 1 version which runs at 60fps docked on Switch 2 although for some reason the handheld mode has varying framerate.
>>1699470 Yeah, I'm surprised how much more I enjoyed DK than Odyssey. Perhaps it's because with DK they didn't have to worry AS much to making the game babby friendly since Mario is basically the introduction to video games for many kids. The only reason we had a good camera system in Odyssey was because of Minecraft funny enough.
>>1700611 The only reason we had a good camera system in Odyssey was because of Minecraft funny enough. Please explain.
>>1700722 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHmL2pv7gQA One minute and forty five seconds in. I'll look for a more solidified source, but from what I saw the article went offline.
>>1700722 Nevermind, found it. https://archive.ph/LSxl2
>>1700768 >>1700769 Interesting, it's been over a decade since I last played Minecraft, so I wasn't ware it had a 3rd person camera.
>>1700768 >>1700769 Minecraft's 3rd person camera is the most basic bitch shit imaginable so it sounds like westoids making shit up to pretend to be relevant.
>>1701258 I don't doubt it.
call me stupid, but I gotta ask. Are these "Nintendo Switch 2 Edition" games actual NSW2 ports or just Switch 1 games packed with BC enhancements? This whole new moniker got me confused. Why not drop that shit? I feel it'd be less confusing that way
>>1701282 I think they're the Switch 1 versions of the games with extra content, although I wouldn't know since I've only been playing Donkey Kong and Mario Kart on it.
>>1701282 It's confusing because it's neither. It's not a port because they both have extra content, and they are soft-remasters with enhanced graphics or performance, and in some cases with small bugfixes and other QoL improvements. Buying the switch 1 version and installing the switch 2 upgrade DOES in fact give you all that shit however, but the BC enhancements are free by default just off running on stronger hardware.

The last time I felt this way was doing surgery on my New 3DS. Those things have delicate ribbon cables.
>>1701686 At least you were able to fix it.
>>1701686 >>he warns to be delicate around this one. Scrape too hard or fast, and one wrong flick could dislodge a tiny capacitor and brick the whole device While fragile, those things are more resistant than you think. t. tried to modchip a switch and constantly scraped the pill capacitors with the searing hot tip of the soldering iron and somehow the device didn't shit itself. I think you basically have to hit it dead center to make it fly.
>>1701827 >t. tried to modchip a switch >tried >device didn't shit itself Did you give up halfway or something?
>>1701925 I melted the modchip ribbon cable and gave up on trying. The console still works somehow tho.
To anyone who has Kirby Forgotten Lands: Is the Switch 2 upgrade required to get the better frame rate?
How is Final Fantasy I - VI Pixel Remaster Collection? Thinking about buying it on cartridge.
>>1710328 >How is Final Fantasy I - VI Pixel Remaster Collection? Censored HD pixelshit Play 1-3 on the NES, 4 Complete on the PSP, and 5/6 either as the PS1 or GBA
>>1710626 4's DS remake is good too, though it's a 3D remake.

Seems like I gave in and bought the 1TB MicroSD Express from Lexar (never had an experience with this brand, only Sandisk and Samsung so far) to replace my 256GB card. I won't have to worry about storage space while installing shit like Project Diva (which costs nearly 50GB) and awaiting for the big Switch 2 ports such as Elden Ring and Yakuza Kiwami 2. >>1700611 The main game was mostly easy to be fair, outside of some bosses and challenge trials that required a bit more thinking, but it's fun because you just unga bunga your way through like you'd expect a big gorilla to do. The elephant power is probably the most busted transformation, since you can suck in everything like a vacuum (except metal) and earn a lot of money in the process. I also learned the director of Bananza is an ex-employee of SEGA (2003 ~ 2015) and Square-Enix (2015 ~ 2020), Kazuya Takahashi, who worked on The House of the Dead 4 and Nights Into Dreams. During its days at Squeenix, he only participated for Final Fantasy 15 and received special thanks for Forspoken, so it looks like Nintendo made better use of his talent by comparison. >>1701282 For third-parties, they're essentially NSW2 ports with the possibility to upgrade from a previously owned Switch 1 version (although it's not the case for everything, especially with Sega) For Nintendo games, they're either free upgrades that take advantage of the features from the new console or paid expansions containing extra game contents. >>1709160 >To anyone who has Kirby Forgotten Lands: Is the Switch 2 upgrade required to get the better frame rate? I only own the base game for now so yes, the Switch 2 upgrade needs to be bought in order to get the 60fps bump (alongside of the new levels). Otherwise, it's still the 30fps cap on Switch 2.
>>1715018 >the Switch 2 upgrade needs to be bought in order to get the 60fps bump Well that sucks.
