    It would be, if this wasn’t passing off old news from right after the Switch 2’s big reveal trailer as something new: ign.com/…/nintendo-switch-games-free-switch-2-upg…

    (The games that weren’t free to upgrade then still aren’t now).

    It’s somewhat odd that the two top-down Zelda games on Switch are getting free Switch 2 upgrades, while Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom will require you to purchase the respective upgrades.

    How is it odd that Nintendo wants every dollar they can reasonably make off of us?

    That‘s the same list from give or take a month ago, is it not?

    Most of these games were mentioned previously, but now we have actual patch notes.

    Been clean from this game for a few years now. It’s really not worth it; Niantic just uses it as a geospatial data harvesting tool rather than focusing on making an entertaining game, imo. There’s a reason all their other games have been failures, the Pokemon IP is the only thing keeping this game afloat.

    DoucheBagMcSwag,

    Shit mindless battling screen tap mechanic made me quit

    Enshitified monetization has kept me away

    Hyphlosion,

    I’m trying to get back into it for exercise reasons, but I’m keeping away from the gross and greedy take on Dynamax stuff. Feels better to ignore those.

    NOT_RICK,

    That’s a decent reason to play. So long as you know what data they’re sucking up and selling and are ok with it, more power to you. What’s crazy to me is I live pretty close to a couple of gyms and I constantly see people drive up and play from their cars. Now that I think completely defeats the purpose.

    Elevator7009sAlt,

    I am back in for exercise reasons. I’m enjoying Dynamax as far as I can go being just one person—mostly because I live near two Dynamax spots and nothing else, and never played a mainline game with Dynamaxing so I do not know how different or how much of a betrayal it is from the mainline version of the mechanic. Curious to hear how it is greedy (honest question, not an aggressive “prove you’re right!!! because they are not!!11!1!”).

    Odyssey and Pokemon are the only two big gimmies here, the others are just …who cares… captain toad…? ARMS?

    Finally the uber-demanding Captain Toad will be unshackled from the pitiful Switch and be on a powerful enough platform that can properly run this epic isometric puzzle game /s

    smeg,

    It runs fine on my WiiU!

    Plebcouncilman, do games w Elden Ring: Nightreign Shows Off A New Powerful Executor Class

    This game looks cool but I’m gonna wait it out for a year on the gamble that it will come to Gamepass.

    WaitThisIsntReddit,

    Probably a good move. Variety seems low.

    Plebcouncilman,

    I basically play every game a year late nowadays. When I don’t I almost always regret it because they tend to announce DLCs or expansions just as soon as I’m finished with the game and I don’t replay games (hardly have enough time to play through them once as it it)

    Interesting. My copy of Half Life from 1998 never got an upgrade for new hardware 😞

    Ulrich,
    @Ulrich@feddit.org avatar

    Oh, which hardware was this upgraded for?

    BombOmOm,
    @BombOmOm@lemmy.world avatar

    Works perfectly fine on my machine I bought over two decades after the game came out, looks significantly better than when the game came out too. Not sure how much more upgradability you could possibly want.

    Ulrich,
    @Ulrich@feddit.org avatar

    Didn’t answer my question.

    catloaf,

    Steam Deck, for one.

    Ulrich, (edited )
    @Ulrich@feddit.org avatar

    Weird, considering it came out several years after Steam Deck and it works just fine on my desktop PC…

    catloaf,

    And the games in the article would have worked just fine on the Switch 2 as well.

    Ulrich,
    @Ulrich@feddit.org avatar

    I mean that makes sense, considering they’re Nintendo games and it’s a Nintendo console.

    @missingno@fedia.io avatar

    If you try reading those patch notes they'll tell you exactly what kinds of modern hardware some of these changes are targeted at:

    • Steam Deck optimizations
    • Improved controller support
    • Default gamma reduced since you're probably not playing on a CRT anymore, and resolution no longer defaults to 640x480
    • Ultrawide FOV support for ultrawide monitors
    • Lowest quality settings removed since no one is running hardware that weak anymore
    • Software renderer fixed on hardware that doesn't support 16-bit color

    Let’s also not forget the well made black mesa

    catloaf,

    I didn’t forget it, but it’s not strictly an update.
