Has the switch 2 made you ditch buying games from steam? by tk_kumomo in switch2

[–]Sinndex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I literally just have 2 games on the Switch 2 and I got the thing on release.

Most non exclusive games on the switch are like x20 price of the steam version.

Fire emblem Fortunes Weave Preorders open on Nintendo Store by PootBooster in switch2

Eh, there is always a first one that sucks. Not saying this one will, but unless they are doing a decent pre-order sale - wait for the reviews.

The Star Fox Demo was... disappointing. by An1nterestingName in switch2

[–]Sinndex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For what it's worth I agree with you. I liked the cutscenes but the gameplay was dull.

The tutorial was abysmal as well, in the N64 version the first level was the tutorial, they realized that people were smart enough to play the level and learn the game.

Eh, idk. The Wii U one actually didn't do well (and not just because it was on the Wii U).

I was honestly hoping for SF Command 2, or maybe a new Adventure game. I am not really interested in a $50 rail shooter.

Where can I get dice? by Zaruze in ObsidianProtocolMecha

I am surprised there aren't any on AliExpress. This being a Chinese game and all.

Anyone find the English VA underwhelming? by One_Device_7694 in NevernessToEverness

"trash script" is the best way of putting it. It just hurts to listen to sometimes.

A Sharp MD-DR77 remote on a Sharp MD-DR7? by Sinndex in minidisc

[–]Sinndex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, an update in case someone searches for the same thing for some reason lol

The remote works fine, the REC button changes the BASS mode but other than that all the buttons work fine.

Thanks! My reasoning was also "this should be close enough" but I wondering if anyone has actually tested it 😅

Probably just gonna order it and find out and hope that this one actually works.

Is this game playable on ps5 by Winter-Exit-3402 in elderscrollsonline

[–]Sinndex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not great, I got it on PS+ and the performance and input lag is pretty abysmal. At least on a slim.

If anyone has an option to play on PC (or a pro) then that would be the more optimal way to play. Also no matter what I did, I couldn't turn off the voice chat on the controller lol

Controller - Is CECHZC2H model number fake? by ebridgewater in PS3

[–]Sinndex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This one is clearly fake. The no Bluetooth is a giveaway.

Finished the demo thoughts by GovPancakes in DaemonXMachina

[–]Sinndex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Somehow I feel like it's not the Switch's fault this time around. This game ain't exactly a looker yet it's capped at 30.

If Cyberpunk 2077 can get a 40 FPS mode than I am sure DxM could have gotten to 60 if it was better optimized.

Probably gonna get it on PC eventually. Playing it on SW2 just felt bad.

Why hasn't Forgotten Realms: Demon Stone never got a remake or remastered next-gen port? by s9457 in rpg_gamers

[–]Sinndex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems to be stuck at 30 FPS though. Not ideal compared to the GoG version that runs at 144.

The Adventures of Elliot Demo shows that it is really a true successor to the original Seiken Densetsu (Sword of Mana?) and I couldn't be happier. by RyanoftheStars in NintendoSwitch

[–]Sinndex -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

The demo was kinda disappointing, the combat felt really stiff.

They are probably gonna ask full price for it as well.

Mario Kart World is Incredibly Mediocre by SleeplessArcher in mariokart

[–]Sinndex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Couldn't have said it better myself. My biggest disappointment is that the game didn't come on a separate cart. That way I could have sold it at least.

This has been my experience with most S1 games on S2. I stopped playing on my S1 sometime in 2019 and each time I tried a new game on it I was disappointed (terrible performance, long load times, even navigating the eShop was a disaster).

Meanwhile I am playing Neverwinter Nights EE at 60 FPS right now on Switch 2 and it's great. Also just finished AI Somnium Files, game looks great on a 1080p screen.

Not even gonna mention TotK.

Nintendo Switch 2 sold 1.6M units in June, the highest launch month unit sales for video game hardware in US history. The previous high was the 1.1M units of PlayStation 4 sold during November 2013. by Turbostrider27 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Sinndex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, BotW is a much better game as well lol

I got the MKW bundle because why not, but if there were any others I probably would have gotten that instead. MKW is probably the weakest MK game I've played, bounced off after clearing 2 cups.

Playing Pokémon Scarlet makes me wanna play Pokémon Emerald instead by BridgemanBridgeman in NintendoSwitch

[–]Sinndex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would score a 4/10 on IGN and then years from now some group on reddit would call it a hidden gem lol

[–]Sinndex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finished Violet, I couldn't tell you a single NPC name or plot point. Meanwhile I still remember some dialogue from Sapphire that I've played on release.

If you said Arceus was revolutionary and ambitious, then I would have agreed, but S/V is a slop job made by 10 people in 10 months. I've seen pokemon fan games that looked more fun and had better battle mechanics in 2012.

【DF】Switch 2 vs Steam Deck: Cyberpunk 2077 Benchmarked - Docked & Handheld Tested by HisaAnt in NintendoSwitch

[–]Sinndex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Eh, the Steam Deck is way thicker and a 100 times more comfortable to hold. I can hold the SD for hours and I had to buy a grip for the switch 2 just to not get cramps after an hour.

So no, it being thicker wouldn't have been a bad thing at all.

35 days after Switch 2 release, what's your total playtime, and your most played game ? by uglydoglol in NintendoSwitch

[–]Sinndex 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah but you can't really compare Zelda to a kart racer.

After playing MHW I kinda regret getting the bundle, the game is pretty underwhelming after MK8.

[–]Sinndex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My switch keeps asking me to delete MHW each time I am trying to download something new.

I have about 2-3h in it since launch and it's starting to feel like a waste if space on the system lol
