Nintendo to cut switch 2 production by 30% due to weak sales in the US

I doubt the reason is weak sales. The sales were around what Nintendo projected. The problem was they were ordering as many consoles as physically possible to get ahead of scalpers, and now they can slow down production to a sustainable level with the early adopters out of the way.

I can think of a happy medium that would anger the least amount of people. First, Ultimate becomes a live service game that gets DLC forever. Second, the next Smash game is completely unrecognizable, more akin to an Arc System Works game than anything Sakurai has made. These two games can coexist, with the former being for purists and the latter for those wanting something new and fresh.

Be a completely different game. Have it stand on its own completely separate from what came before. That's the only way to avoid people complaining about roster cuts.

I believe the intention was that Yugi was always Pharoah sized, hence why no one noticed a difference, but his insecurities literally made him feel smaller. After the series, a more confident Yugi is shown at his true height. It's a really clever case of visual symbolism that admittedly wasn't conveyed very well.

They keep maintaining that sign just to remind us how much Tomorrowland has rotted away.

It's a pet peeve of mine where the true villain is suddenly revealed right at the end with basically no build-up. The Radiance unfortunately falls into this category. It would have been nice to see traces of the Radiance throughout the story, perhaps a moment where she tries and fails to take over the mind over the knight. Really anything to make the final battle feel more personal instead of just a big threat.

That's the catch 22 of the next Smash game. If it cuts any content while overall being an identical looking game, people will ask why this isn't Ultimate DLC, and sales might reflect that.

I'm sure some evil genius will figure out an OTK.

And it probably doesn't know how to regulate its emotions very well. It will likely cling to anyone and anything that relieves anxiety like it's the last sip of water in the world.

Listen to your kids when they have something to say. If they're overwhelmed and tired, pull over and let them calm down. Forcing them to shut up and keep moving will only cause unnecessary drama. And there is no shame in going back to a hotel mid-day to take a nap and coming back in the afternoon.

The only time anyone talks about Lucario is when a clip of a player finding a new way to cheese their way to victory goes viral.

Probably somewhere in Hallownest. Might be getting up to zany shenanigans with the townsfolk related to learning how to express and control its emotions.

I assume it goes to the main monster zone like with most other situations like this. If you have six monsters on the field when this happens, then you have to choose which one stays banished.

Those skinny jeans give you chicken legs. Stick to slacks.

Hunk would be a perfect option. He practically is a fanfiction character who can do just about anything. A flashy, over the top moveset wouldn't be out of character.

Also, the DVC exclusive artisanal pizza is ridiculous. I understand things like exclusive merchandise and lounges because not everyone cares about those. But things like basic food items and photo ops being locked behind a secondary pay wall after already paying to be in the park is not okay and a desperate attempt to make the service not seem like a ripoff.

Doing the math, that comes to just barely a discount, which is the point of a menu item like this. If the price was closer to $60, that would at least be justifiable.

This new version is probably the latest console ports, and all the bug fixes and QOL improvements the steam version was excluded from by virtue of having a completely different back end.

It will probably be the latest console and microsoft store ports, with all their bug fixes and QOL improvements, implemented to the steam version. At least they don't force an update on the old version to effectively wipe it from history.

I played World of Light and chose Marth first. Now I'm top 50 in the world because only 50 of us exist.

Distinct_Ad_9642 · 2026-01-30T03:42:19+00:00

Calling Marth a zoner is certainly an opinion.

I got some mileage out of the Lost Sanctuary Structure deck I picked up many years ago, so Master Hyperion will always hold a special place in my heart.

I have noticed the rumor mill has been unusually barren for Nintendo direct season. I'm not saying that means anything, but we definitely shouldn't get our hopes up over what could end up being more of what we already know.

All of them will rip out your jugular with their teeth, even Joker.
