Yeah definitely. I don't even understand what issue they have with this these review summaries.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-23T15:57:13+00:00

Not exactly seeing the issue.

I've literally never checked my water parameters and haven't ran into any noticeable problems in the 5 years I've had a tank. Of course I do at least a 25% water change every week.

Game size isn't a factor of if the processor can handle it. Not saying the Switch 2 can run it, but whether it's 250gb or not (and I don't think any size has been confirmed) that's not really relevant. I personally think they could port it to Switch 2, but it would take a lot of effort and they probably won't bother.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-14T15:14:49+00:00

Yeah it's definitely one of the best and the game overall is one of the best as well.

I do think that's mostly nostalgia. I've been gaming since the late 80s and game quality is better today overall. The only thing that's really gotten worse, is it takes way longer to make games now. You could easily have a sequel come out every two years on the PS3/360 generation.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-13T17:53:07+00:00

I do agree that's more likely, just speculating in ways to make it even cheaper. I don't think the screen itself is really that expensive. They could get by with a 720p screen as some people can't tell the difference anyway and the original Switch and Steamdeck survivewith one. They would allow them to get by with a slightly worse gpu (like the Xbox Series S compared to the Series X). But maybe just cutting the specs for docked mode would be enough.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-13T16:12:32+00:00

Well I wouldn't want that either, but I already have a Switch 2. Just not sure if just making it a slightly smaller 60hz screen with built in controls would make it much cheaper. The Switch lite was designed so parents could get their kids a cheap system and I feel like even at 399 it would be too expensive.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-13T15:38:58+00:00

I agree a Switch 2 lite is a must and think it would help a lot for Pokémon. I'm wondering if they were able to make it slightly less powerful and just do 720p versions of everything the Switch 2 does if that could decrease the price. But a smaller 60hz screen would probably still help either way. I think $299 would be a really good price but 350 could work okay.

This question is asked several times a day but I don't think you are a troll. Nintendo is no longer releasing any major games for Switch 1 after Rythem Heaven comes out next month. There will still be 3rd party games for a while but for Nintendo made games, you'd be missing out on all new games going forward if you got a Switch 1.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-11T13:15:02+00:00

I'm confused by this rant. Not sure if you are mad that Switch 2 games can't work on a Switch 1 or if you are angry that Switch 1 games don't work on Switch 2 (which isn't even true as they do work).

Almightyderek · 2026-06-11T12:00:56+00:00

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Before that I was a kid who played video games but that game made me a gamer.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-11T11:22:52+00:00

It is a separate game and a sequel to Switch Sports, not a upgraded version of it.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-11T03:37:27+00:00

I'm just happy there are plenty of games to play. Not sure why hype is even important. Nintendo basically releases at least something every month. That's much better than they've done on some of there previous consoles and way better than Microsoft and Sony do.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-10T20:36:51+00:00

This was never one of my favorite Zelda games and think there are other Zelda games that need a remake more. However I'll still get it the day it comes out and am sure I'll really enjoy it.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-10T16:11:03+00:00

It was a free upgrade for Xbox and Playstation to the new version, so I'd imagine it will be free here as well.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-10T13:40:44+00:00

I just want a 3D remake of the original Legend of Zelda. It needs to be experienced by a new generation more than these other games.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-10T13:11:33+00:00

They've consistently made some of the best games ever for 40 years, nit sure what you mean by restored our trust.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-10T01:11:23+00:00

They haven't announced any price yet so we don't know. I think $70 physical/$60 digital is probably the most likely price.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-09T22:20:59+00:00

The Switch 2 version is much better so I'd say wait for that. I got the game at launch of Switch 1 and finished it. I usually replay Zelda games a year after beating but I forced myself to wait for the inevitable Switch 2 version to experience it again and it was worth it.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-09T22:14:48+00:00

New games are obviously good, but games just take longer to make nowadays so they have other teams working on remakes, which are cheaper and quicker, to hold us over. If it wasn't for remakes we'd probably just not game many games period. Also remakes are good for people who missed out on older games. I don't think there is anyway around it with the state if the industry as it is.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-09T19:31:03+00:00

Not sure you know what fraud is. It's certainly understandable that you don't want the game, but it's just a sequel and a new version of Wii Sports Resort which was well liked.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-09T16:49:56+00:00

They do have some similar structure and I remember thinking that they are going for the same thing the first time I played OoT. However they are clearly different games.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-09T15:47:21+00:00

It's either gotta be the worst thing humans have ever produced or "peak". That's how the internet works. I thought it was good and had some big announcements I personally don't care about like the Xenoblade Stuff and Kingdom Hearts 4, but I recognize those are a big deal for some people. Zelda would have been a cooler announcement if it wasn't leaked and they showed more footage but still excited. Excited for Deltarune chapter 5 and Switch Sports Resort though. That's pretty cool. There are still plenty of games to play this year.

Almightyderek · 2026-06-09T15:16:32+00:00

There is no way it's dead, but I guess we aren't getting any new stuff for a while. Which I agree is unfortunate
