I really love early Japanese games that do the Western style fantasy thing before they really established their conventions, it's simultaneously so familiar and super alien. I think Miyazaki said it was the feeling he was trying to capture in the Souls games

Just picked up stardew valley on the switch. Never played it, but it seems like a good game to get cozy on the couch with. Gonna start with the four corners farm I think.

I never really followed it either, playing pretty much blind. It isn't what I thought it was going to be at all, on day 6 or so a wizard drugged me then I played a twin-stick shooter all day then passed out in the dirt by my house before I could plant anything.
I'm just a city boy.

I would do it if not for the price hike. The new screen was made for a gamer like me who plays a majority of switch in handheld mode and even I don't want that poo poo

Yeah this is my takeaway. I was excited to replace my beat up launch day Switch and then someone mentioned that it's more expensive than a Series S and it made me realize how hosed up it is that they're charging basically the same price for the exact same hardware that I bought 5 years ago. I'll wait until my Switch actually bites the dust. I really like the look of it but not for $350.

I was listening to something and someone mentioned that it was just 50 bucks away from the cheaper nextgen big boy consoles and I had to stop and look it up because it sounded impossible, but it is lol

Looks like after it comes out GameStop will offer extra trade-in credit for existing switches if put toward the OLED model so I’ll wait til then

If you can even get your hands on an OLED model then, no idea how they’ll work the trade-in if they’re as hard to get as the series x and PS5

There's a shot of the rear and it's actually way thinner than it looks. It probably won't be much more hefty than a Switch, and the grips look infinitely better than the Joycons for holding.

Really curious what the battery life is like though. When I thought it was Sega Nomad chunky it made sense, but now I feel like it's probably like 40 minutes of Doom Eternal.
