    Assuming you're not trolling, what does Square Enix not translating into English obscure RPGs have to do with Koei Tecmo putting their very much already translated games on the service?

    somehow massively fucked up something in my upper arm last night or this morning, so i haven't been as mobile or productive today as i would've liked due to the pain. but i did spend some time today playing Pokemon Snap on NSO for the first time. very charming and relaxing.

    Sorry to hear about your arm. OG Pokemon Snap is very cool, the new one is fine, but it definitely lacks the charm.

    All I'll say is that is a very Nintendo marketing strategy.

    So Nintendo will be releasing games throughout the year instead of every game at the launch date? Wow thats big if true

  15. Seems weird that 3rd party studios don't yet have dev kits

    There's absolutely no way that no one has a dev kit yet

    I don't think we're strategically staggering releases

    in all seriousness Nintendo has been producing the Switch 2 for so long that a release in June is absolutely plausible.

    That said as far as me having heard things and people saying things: people have been so aggressively wrong about this thing that I am having a hard time knowing who to trust at this point. I am not saying people have peddled falsehoods but I do think that dates and information are ever changing. I wouldn't be surprised if the Switch 2 launch will be aligned to a software release as to prevent a barren line up of launch games and the subsequent negative publicity because they couldn't live up to the Switch 1 coming out of the gate with BOTW.

    if you're getting send dev kits in June you're not shipping in October.

    maybe they're getting updated/finalized devkits, as third parties reportedly have had access to devkits for a while now.
    Devs had access to the GameCube devkit for over a year before launch and 4 months in the Wii's case. (around 9 for the Switch).

    So yeah, idk.

    Wasn't this exactly what they did with the Switch? Had at least one first-party game every month? I remember they kept that going for a good while.
