Nintendo Gaming / Re: Nintendo Switch 2

« Last post by M.K.Ultra on Today at 01:42:35 PM »

I am wondering how folks are using and enjoying their Switch 2?

Personally, I still have my Switch hooked up and running and have only been using Switch 2 for exclusive games. I have played Welcome Tour and Mario Kart World and enjoyed both. I bought the pro controller and overall like it, though those GL/R buttons still feel weird. I pre-ordered Donkey Kong Bonanza and will be getting Metroid Prime 4 later this year.

I'M BACK / eShop Icons That Make Me Laugh (web edition)

« Last post by Crimm on July 03, 2025, 10:49:02 AM »

A month prior to the launch of Switch 2, Nintendo pivoted the browse page of the web eShop to using square icons instead of rectangular hero images. Games were always supposed to provide those icons, but they weren't used very much.

Comedy ensued.

We're no longer seeing games that just don't have an image, but we now get dumb garbage anyway.

I have slain the dreaded Simplemachine Forums theme. None can stand against this mighty and terrifying spectacle of a man.

Apparently he is still locked out of the forums atm. The time for us to take over has come at last.

Yep he definitely isn't here. It's safe to come out.

On the topic of Nintendo releasing retro games, the smart and handsome question asker left open the possibility of Nintendo finishing off an unreleased game. And they've done this, at least one and more depending if you count localising.
So my firth thought was Star Fox 2 which was finished off and released for the Super Nintendo Mini Classic.
The other option is the often forgotten localisation of Fire Emblem™ Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light, which was available as a standalone purchase on the Switch eshop for a limited time. They even did a physical version with a commemorative NES cart.
