I haven’t been excited for a 2D Mario game in so long. So happy this game has broken my streak!

It just looks so WEIRD I love it

I’m not as hyped as with Super Mario Odyssey.

The biggest issue is the price. I remember a time when even the poorest kid in class had a Nintendo because it was cheap.

The last cheap Nintendo was the 2DS over a decade ago. Most parents are looking for cheap hardware with entertainment and there isn’t anything which comes close to it.

Even the switch lite is the same price as the PS3 bundle back in the day. And it came with 2 real controllers and a game.

The Switch 2 is not expensive.

The people that think this are getting screwed by their jobs but they don’t want to think about their wage stagnating while their boss buys extra boats and houses.

Armok_the_bunny,

I mean, it is kinda expensive, but that would be more tollerable for everyone if wages weren’t stagnating to fund yachts.

rafoix,

It’s not any more expensive than any other electronics.

It’s a brand new tablet with okay battery life, pretty good performance and some low quality Bluetooth controllers included. Nothing else on the market is comparable. It’s basically a portable PS4 for $500 which is nice.

I recently built a PC. I bought RAM for $190. A week later it was $300. Now it’s over $400. Somehow, a Switch 2 is crazy overpriced at $500. People upset at the Switch 2 price are mouth breathers.

been too busy emulating old roms of theirs, can’t be bothered with their whack churn of remakes and stale IPs on dated hardware

They haven’t had a crossover hit yet. The Switch had at least 2. Breath of the Wild on Launch and Animal Crossing during COVID. Hoping Star Fox get’s a major Breath of the Wild type jump for the series and maybe a new IP. Metroid would be good to have a new sub-series that changes up the formula for 3D adventure. Hopefully a new IP too

Yeah it’s kind of a thing where the switch benefited from the failure of the Wii U while the Switch 2 is being hurt by the success of the Switch.

BOTW was available on the Wii U, but since so few people had one of those, it made sense to get a Switch to play it.

With the Switch 2 I feel like “Meh, I already have a Switch it doesn’t seem like it’s offering much more than what I already have”. Also it’s larger and when I want to use the Swtich hand held (mostly just when I’m on a plane) seems like that might be a pain in the ass. Also with the Switch 1 they eventually came out with a better OLED model, so I’ll just keep playing the Switch 1 until they come out with something a little more compact and maybe with a better screen or whatever. Stick drift has been an issue for me so also want something with more reliable sticks.

Seems like I might be asking a lot, but for the price they’re asking if I’m not getting what I want, then I’ll stick with the Switch 1. It’s fine.

I’m going to get one at some point, because my OG Switch’s battery swelled up so I got rid of it. It’s more about being able to play my existing games, than being in any way excited about spending £70 on new ones. 😔

I’m a ps player mainly because I got the PS1 to replace my Saturn and haven’t had many bad experiences with Sony so far, but I’m definitely looking forward to the upcoming stream machines and will probably get a Steam Deck sometime soon.

I wonder if it’s because they had 10 million ready to go in June for launch so most people who wanted one got one then. Especially because it’ll never go down in price, why wait until the holidays unless you have kids?

Not even what the lawsuit is about… It’s the creature capture mechanisms that they feel infringed on.

Ganondorf, do gaming w Sonic Superstars' Sales Were 'Slightly Weaker' Than Sega Had Anticipated
@Ganondorf@kbin.social avatar

Kind of seems silly to buy any game developed by Sonic Team these days. They are either half-baked ideas (Sonic with a sword? Sonic as a werewolf?) or glitchy messes with repetitive, cheap gameplay (Frontiers, Lost World). They seem to rarely learn from previous mistakes or grow as a development team, similar to Gamefreak. Both studios are sustained by name recognition.

TwilightVulpine,

As much as I'm very critical of both these studios, that's really downplaying Sonic Frontiers. It was puzzling that they decided to go for a realistic style while having floating platforms everywhere, but that was a competent game that a lot of people enjoyed. I wouldn't even call it glitchy, playing it lately I didn't see a single one. Maybe it had some glitches on release, but unfortunately this is commonplace these days.

Maybe it had some glitches on release

I haven't heard much about it as of late and won't comment on its current state, but when it first came out it was a glitchy mess. Several reviewers mentioned how glitchy it was and docked it points. dunkey made a whole video showcasing glitches and odd design choices. It's a step in the right direction, so they deserve credit, but that doesn't change its shortcomings at launch.
