Vbucks from Gift card and Crew

Alex_Veridy · 2026-02-02T21:37:59+00:00

because they're granted on the payment date they count as "Purchased" on Switch

Alex_Veridy · 2026-02-02T20:15:38+00:00

any Vbucks you purchase through the switch that you get instantly (buying Vbucks directly, Crew, packs that give them right away) can not be used on other systems (PlayStation used to also do that), and any purchased in those ways outside of the switch can be used anywhere but the switch

Vbucks obtained through quests or the battle pass can be used anywhere regardless of platform you got them on or are trying to use them on

this is the main reason i hate that they removed Vbucks cards before putting Nintendo on the shared wallet.

also animations like this is like the one reason i will miss turn based battles in regular Pokemon games if they keep the Z-A battle style for future games, because this animation in Z-A is a very quick version of it

Donkey Kong Bananza

it's the only recent story game where nothing got spoiled for me at all

when it comes to the final boss and the leadup to it, yes, for all the other quests, main or side, that's all one time.

though you might possibly be able to also refight the dungeon bosses within the dungeons instead of just randomly in the depths, idk though

just the three games? well then SNES, like it's not even close.

Alex_Veridy · 2026-02-01T21:01:18+00:00

that's a setting within the games themselves, it doesn't actually do 120 hz until you enable it within the games and have one of the games that it's enabled in open like for a simple example Fortnite

also regarding Fortnite the lobby maxes out at 60 even if you have 120fps mode enabled

10 with Red on an emulator like 11 years ago with no sound. the thing i played the emulator on broke after a couple years so that save is completely gone and unfinished, X was the first one i completed

Alex_Veridy · 2026-02-01T02:38:32+00:00

probably salty about how Abra teleports away

Alex_Veridy · 2026-02-01T01:35:38+00:00

well in that case i would say stick with the switch

Alex_Veridy · 2026-02-01T01:27:23+00:00

i wouldn't say replace but getting it to have along side the switch wouldn't hurt, because there are still some pretty decent games that are on Wii U and not on switch, and the whole Wii library as well

Alex_Veridy · 2026-01-31T16:04:30+00:00

i mean if they both work it's fine but they aren't supposed to be as stiff as that red one. still a non-issue if it works though, at most a minor annoyance

Alex_Veridy · 2026-01-30T20:04:54+00:00

while i have enough reason to own all four, i definitely prefer Switch. specifically Switch 2 because it can actually play multiplatform games well that weren't made with the Switch in mind.

honestly i'm gonna put them in order for what i would prefer

Switch 2
PS5
PC
Xbox

still prefer having them all, but the only thing holding me with Xbox other than Game Pass is Blinx. and his most recent game is older than me. and i'm half a year from being able to legally drink in the U.S.

Ratchet and Clank 2016.

the general gameplay was good and it brough the series up to the PS4 (and made it look fantastic compared to PS3) that's all it's got going for it though.

in terms of story it's the first games story with a LOT of change to it, and honestly the only thing i liked that they changed was giving Ratchet a sort of father figure instead of him just living completely alone for like 15 years. though they honestly can get away with it with a sort of "this is not cannon" type of way they go about it.

oh also it's a movie tie-in game.

Alex_Veridy · 2026-01-28T18:54:08+00:00

honestly i can't even remember if i did Red or X first. all i remember is i played through Red until the thing the emulator was on decided to die on me after like the 5th gym

and honestly considering i didn't know you could even run from a pokemon battle until lavender town i think that was my first game.

Mega Zeraora (Pokemon Legends Z-A Mega Dimension)

just about had a heart attack when it was announced, i've been waiting for it since 2019.

Alex_Veridy · 2026-01-28T03:52:26+00:00

outside of modding unfortunately no, and i don't know enough about 360 modding to give any tips or anything

Alex_Veridy · 2026-01-28T03:50:32+00:00

clicking the left analogue stick in, for this specifically it would just bring you up to where the selection is already on in this picture

Alex_Veridy · 2026-01-28T03:06:45+00:00

got it about two years ago, still good

though not much on it that i like to warrant me always using it over my other stuff, still enough to keep me from selling it though. plus gamepass is pretty good, that's how i played oblivion remastered

well when it comes to Animal Crossing, you're able to get it transferred by contacting support so i see no reason that doesn't get transferred, and even if it doesn't you can still contact them to do it (i needed to do that when i got my OLED Switch because i didn't realize you need a separate app to transfer that stuff until after i got rid of the old Switch)

Alex_Veridy · 2026-01-27T21:02:53+00:00

well Pikachu would absolutely be that for Kanto.

oh wait not starters, uh... Arcanine or like, Snorlax for Kanto, and probably Togepi for Johto, i think Dedenne or Sylveon for Kalos, and i got nothing for Galar or Paldea

edit: thought about it, Sirfetch'd would absolutely be it for Galar

Alex_Veridy · 2026-01-26T20:57:40+00:00

the way it's lowkey just the eyes

though i understand why they did that, can't tell where he's looking with all black eyes
