    Pokemon is just an automatic free update right? No need to search around for an expansion pack in the eShop?

    Wow holding the detached joy cons while docked is 100000% more comfortable in my hand than the old ones.

    Yeah, they’re just being Nintendo haha. They could (and probably should) patch most of their recent IP games to 1080p with higher framrates but…Nintendo.

    To be fair though Prime Remastered was already one of the best looking and performing games in Switch 1.

    Just been playing Pokemon Scarlet so far, I did buy Bravely Default though, also downloaded the upgrades for BOTW and TOTK. I think i'm just gonna play them both again, I never did finish half of TOTK, but I wanna see both these games in all their upgraded glory. The phone apps for the games also sounds like a neat little companion app to use too.

    Sigh. The fact that companies still suck at implementing ipv6 in 2025 is so sad lol. I used to test network equipment for IPv6 certification 10+ years ago and the amount of large companies that kept failing the standard was staggering

    Just placed an order with Antonline for a bundle that includes pro controller. No markup on anything, so we’ll see how long it takes to arrive.

    Nice that's awesome! At a glance, I can see it's sold out at my Walmart and Target so I'm glad I got a preorder

    Yeah I haven't played it on the TV yet, but I opened it up on the Switch 2 before and after getting the expansion pass, and it's very noticeable. Much cleaner edges around stuff

    Yep. Textures, resolution, fps, all noticeably better. I’m noticing some subtle animation stuff in menus and inventory that I never caught before.

    Pretty wild that there are only three GameCube games available with the NSO expansion, but eh, at least I got my DLCs with it
