MudMan, do games w Nintendo Switch 2 GameCube controller is only compatible with GameCube games, Nintendo says

So it seems this may just refer to "official support" and the piece of news is at least misinformation-adjacent, but it does make me wonder if there is any forwards compatibility with the Pro Controller. There are plenty of solid alternatives for Switch 1 and that wasn't particularly picky about taking in third party devices.

Not sure if anybody has brought it up in the news deluge.

Khanzarate,

Yes it has Bluetooth support and, naturally, USB C.

It’ll continue to take anything that supports those, and that’ll include the switch 1 pro controller, since it supports those for other devices.

MudMan,

That's nice. Gamecube replicas are a bit of a niche case, but there are plenty of expensive fight sticks that would be great to use if compatible. I guess we'll know for sure once it's out.

Even regular ass USB keyboards work with Switch. Usually not for control input but typing search terms in the e-Shop, for example.

I got MMO trash out of my system 20 years ago. You can’t pay me to play a live service game now.

tastetheplague, do games w Final Fantasy 9 and Final Fantasy Tactics remakes are reportedly still in ‘active development’
@tastetheplague@sh.itjust.works avatar

FFIX is the best game in the franchise and I’ll die on that hill.

glimse,

I really liked the story and world aesthetic but the bobblehead character design is sooo off-putting to me. Zidane always reminded me a blond Chucky doll

7112,

The CG was rough. In-game models were OK. The worst part is how slow battles were. Those opening transitions were so slow.

glimse,

Loved the gameplay, though!

This is all true, but I refuse to take off my nostalgia colored glasses.

SkyNTP,

6, 7, 8, 9 is the golden age of the series. I have a favourite among those four, but let’s leave it at that.

Ageroth,

It’s 8 isn’t it. It’s ok, I liked it too

@VindictiveJudge@lemmy.world avatar

FF8 didn’t do it for me, mostly because the gameplay was a terribly broken mess. I loved 12, though; the story is like the love child of Final Fantasy, Game of Thrones, and Star Wars, and the gameplay felt like a logical evolution of the ATB system for a fully 3D world.

I love the fact that classical and other instrumental music is still part of popular culture, and thriving, in no small part through the games we play every day. Thanks for posting this.

OutlierBlue, do gaming w Hit deck-builder Balatro is now available for mobile [VGC]

Yikes, kinda expensive on mobile. I already repackaged it from my Steam copy and side-loaded it on to my phone so I’ll stick with that. It would be nice if I could keep my progress from one to the other though.

chloyster,

I continue to be a little perplexed by views like this. If the game is $15 on steam, why is $10 on mobile viewed as expensive?

I understand that mobile games typically are cheaper or freemium, but I feel mobile games would be higher quality overall if people actually wanted to spend money on them

OutlierBlue,

Because I already bought the game. Why should I have to pay more based on where I play it? That’s ridiculous. If I buy it, I should be able to play it how and where I want.

chloyster,

I mean that’s fine. Like you said you can continue to use your version that uses the steam files, that’s the version you paid for. But the game sold on another store is cheaper than the other. I don’t think that makes the game too expensive

Edit:

Also as far as I can tell from this, save transfer is supported on the side loaded version github.com/blake502/balatro-mobile-maker

toxicbubble420,

seems fair to me, same price as Slay the Spire without the famous steam sales

Isn't the mobile version 1:1 with the desktop? If so, how is this "kinda expensive" if it's the same product that's considered cheap?

UndercoverUlrikHD, do games w Grasshopper CEO Suda51 says people ‘care too much’ about Metacritic scores
@UndercoverUlrikHD@programming.dev avatar

I can’t remember ever having used meta critic to guide a purchase. There is so much content both from forums and YouTube/Twitch that gives you much more accurate impressions of games. Meta critic seems rather pointless nowadays.
