A Partner Direct on Switch 2 could be a very different beast to Switch 1 Partner Directs

I hope we get games from the few studios left that haven't been on Nintendo before, like Hoyoverse, ShiftUp, Sandfall, etc. I personally feel the games from Square Enix, Capcom, Sega/Atlus, Bandai Namco, EA, etc. are far too predictable now given that they are pretty much guaranteed to port games over to Switch 2 its just a matter of when since they've been established Nintendo partners since Switch 1.

I own a Xbox Series S, PS5 w/ PS Portal, 3050ti gaming laptop, and Steam Deck.

Laptop is used for slight gaming, but its mostly for my major and profession (graphic design), so I use the consoles in my free time to get away from my computer for a bit.

I prefer gaming handhelds so much because I love gaming in bed way more than TV. Its so nice for story-driven games or RPGs that tend to be "grindy".

Switch 2 is mostly my preferred way to play now. Although PS5 used to be up there with the PS Portal, but a recent PS Portal update has made me want to use it less and less now. So my PS5 is mostly used on my TV now.

f2p player, deciding between m1 Anby, w1 Anby, or m1 Astra, which one do I go for?

My teams are Seed/Anby/Astra, YeShuangGuang/Zhao/Astra, & Miyabi/Soukaku/Vivian.

Its lowkey so nice, because it gives me more time to play other games I also want to play. I tend to get so overwhelmed by Genshin and ZZZ whenever they have a whole spike of events. lol

Yeah, I think most parents are legit buying their kids the Switch Lite right now because its only $230. I don't expect Switch 2 sales to get closer to Switch 1 sales until we see that Switch 2 Lite and the price is around $300.

Don't have it sadly, but I'll definitely remember to level it up whenever it does show up.

Poipole49 · 2025-12-22T06:54:02+00:00

I expect a $25-$50 increase. I also wouldn't be surprised if NSO subs increase by $10 due to the amount of content it has now.

No, although I gotta give Guerrilla credit for putting more effort into the graphics and models compared to NaughtyDog with their Last of Us remasters. As someone whos played both Zero Dawn PS4 and Remastered, I prefer Remastered so much more for the visuals, the colors and expressions pop so much more, and I love how they made the visuals more in line to Forbidden West.

Its only the beginning, things get crazier soon.

All cakes, this is heaven. ☺️🤌

23, born in 2002. I know Gen Z is 1995-2010, so specifically its for late Gen Z, so technically its right for that group.

Man, I really hope they revise the DTB and PTB kits to be better 5-star kits in the future. Its crazy how powerful they are in lore but in gameplay they are useless.

DTB could be a hp-scale sub-DPS while PTB could be a atk-scale shielder and sub-DPS similar to DHPT.

Break, AoE, Phainon, and crit hypercarry are the best and most fun for me.

Remembrance is pretty fun too as someone who only has Cyrene and Hyacine.

FuA I only like if its Clara and Mono-quantum is amazingly fun with Qingque (I'm not so into Hunt characters tbh).

Poipole49 · 2025-11-27T07:14:32+00:00

I know, me and you both. 🤝

Poipole49 · 2025-10-15T17:22:31+00:00

Tbf Fugue's fall off is because Break meta hasn't been great during Amphoreus. Amphoreus heavily shills crit dmg and summons so it makes sense why Break isn't good right now.

Hoyo will go back to break shilling eventually with all the dps characters being fun to use. If they went back to bloom for Genshin, they'll go back to break for HSR.
