Rogue was fine, IIRC it suffers from Ubisoft's usual map overfilled with collectibles that do nothing but cause bars to fill. I think the main story is only about 6 missions long.

Sunshine was cool and good, friend. I didn't like the Galaxy games.

Sunshine needs a remake more than Galaxy imo. They could fix a lot with relatively little work. I'm not sure how'd they handle fludd without analog triggers though.

If Spyro Switch retains enough of the original release's visuals to preserve its aesthetic in handheld and the framerate doesn't tank to poo poo then I'm beyond down because Reignited is seriously one of the most gorgeously animated games I've ever seen and the artstyle loving nails that 'how you remember it looking as a kid' sweet spot you hope any remake captures.

Have there been any good tech analyses yet or just general details on resolution and junk? Also do we know if this is the patched version from other consoles, like with subtitles and motion blur slider and that kind of thing?

Also what's Spyro? Please submit these answers to me in a form.

I don't think the sunshine post was a hint. Nintendo has made it pretty clear that they don't care about their old games and they're always surprised to find out that anybody else does.

I don't think anybody there even remembers that "sunshine" was also the name of a Mario game

Torchlight 2, 3 hours in:

- enemy auto targeting is dog poo poo
- very, very limited customization options
- decent amount of pets, includes the headcrab
- no respec potion at the starting town
- menu system is dog poo poo; they should've just copied TL1 for the 360

Don't get me wrong, it's still fun, it just has... annoyances. Gameplay is still good.

If I can't find a respec potion seller in the next town, I'm straight up giving it a DO NOT BUY for casual players though.

Subtitles: Yes. Motion blur slider: No, an on/off toggle instead. Also there's no motion blur in handheld.

I just played 2 hours in docked mode and I'm pretty satisfied with the port. The resolution is obviously low, which may be a sticking point, but the performance is solid and I think overall the game still looks good.

Wait, so if I get a new Switch and decide to transfer my games/save files it's all hunky-dory thanks to the cloud saves EXCEPT I will lose all my progress on Dark Souls, which... I- ok, fine, but also Splatoon 2? The latter is not cool at all, I don't think I'd want to lose all the items I've unlocked in the hundreds of hours of playtime.

What the heck was the point of the SD card in that case?

If true, this is pretty disheartening. I probably won't bother getting the upgrade.

I dunno, maybe nintendo could answer your question: https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/45047/~/how-to-transfer-your-save-data-to-a-nearby-nintendo-switch or https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/27394/~/how-to-transfer-user-and-save-data


fake edit:

Both consoles must have system menu version 8.0.0 or higher, be connected to the Internet, and near each other.


seems like you do need an active internet connection, and I've used phone wi-fi spots for streams / work stuff and it's been fine for that. I can't imagine that it wouldn't work for this

I played it as a kid when it first came out, and was lucky enough to manage to get hold of a PocketStation. Because of this, I had Hella Vicious Weapons by disc 2, and a fat chocobo GF that did silly damage.

That being said, I've never thoroughly broken it. I know that you can do all sorts of wizard poo poo with card mod/not levelling up your characters, but I don't know how.

Does anyone have any ready access to an effortpost about this? Like guide for the simple, or a series of pointers?

This is obviously because I have just bought it for the third time.

Basically it is all about junctioning magic. Playing cards gets you magic, drawing from enemies gets you magic. Once you have 100 of each magic and junction it to the correct stats you can become ridiculously strong. Like 100 Ultima junctioned to your elemental defense gives you max defense against every type of element in the game. It's silly.

Cool, sounds like it should work. Last thing I'm not clear on, when they say the new console needs to have the adequate memory for the transfer does that mean I'll need two SD cards, the old one and a new one for the new console? Or am I being as ignorant as I fear about what exactly is saved internally or on the SD card?

The deal here is still more expensive than the one in the US, but given that I get new pair of joy-cons that are usually 70 euro I think it ends up being more or less the same price.

This one I already know but linking the article anyway: https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/22289/~/data-management-faq#s1q1. Save game data is stored to system memory and all other game related data is stored on the microSD. So you should be good to go

This is all saying they let you do it in store. Some people have bought the new one, done the transfer at home, then return to the store to get a refund / trade in then. I had all cloud saves so I didn't need to go through this
