They supposedly pinky promised that hundreds of titles are already confirmed to be working so it seems like PS4 backwards compatibility is a safe bet, but they also haven't really said anything other than short statements and they didn't say a single word about it during their presentation. Making some people skittish

Have they not confirmed that? I know people hate on Xbox here, this generation, mostly rightfully so, but it’s really cool that you’ll be able to play 4 generations of Xbox games on the new one. If I ever need another console (lol) then I’d be more likely to pick one up than a PS5, solely because I can play games I bought 15 years ago on it without repaying.

By now it sounds like it should be fine for PS4 games. Earlier systems though, I'm not holding my breath.

Agreed otherwise why wouldn't they be self-fellating themselves in public constantly and shrieking this from the rooftops if this was in the works

I'll be happy as long as PS4 BC works reasonably well and includes BLOODBORNE. Actually gently caress BC just a port of that is fine too

Nintendo themselves. Check their official store, they occasionally have the old models refurbished for $250. Their refurbished stuff is like new.

Last night I was watching a bad movie (alien vs predator) while playing Tetris 99 on my switch in handheld mode and for a second I thought about buying a Switch Lite so it was a little more comfortable...but then I figured I should probably just watch better movies that deserve more of my attention.

I don’t think the lite is more comfortable. The screen is just too small for some games. The only thing it has is the dpad and you can grab one of those $15 dollar hori left joycons if you really want one.

I would be so hyped for a new micro machines game, if it's that top downish view from the PS1 game, and also includes codes like the first game that lets you change your car into the various objects around the track

https://store.nintendo.com/nintendo-switch/refurbished.html

They're out of stock at this exact moment but keep replenishing. You might end up with original models if that matters.

Unless you specifically need refurbished units for a project, or are gambling for a reduced battery life for some reason, the usual retailers have current model back in stock throughout the week; BestBuy showed availability this morning/afternoon and could easily have some tonight. Good luck!

Should be able to. I’d just wait so it’s tied to your main account. I’m so happy it turned out to be good. I got a physical copy coming that includes a little cow plush.

My disdain for you all knows no bounds.
Regarding the concern of lack of incentive and progression from battles in Origami King, it seems like they might have actually addressed that this time around according to leaked copies of the game.

Coins can be used to permanently upgrade your stats. Why they didn't reveal this in marketing is beyond me.

Rogue trooper redux is 66% off so I picked it up. For those of you who know it, hey lookie it's cheap. For those that dont, it's a surprisingly good single player shooter. I grabbed it on a whim years ago on original xbox expecting nothing and had a blast with it

Because they shouldn't have to spell out every single mechanic for a game? Like i know my gimmick is to go "lol goons slam down opinions" but again, y'all sure did slam down some opinions

Cross Code is indeed a great game. I had it on PC but ended up rebuying it on Switch (because, duh).

The console versions have some issues so far, but they've already posted the patches are in the approval pipelines.
