having children sounds like hell and i would never share my video games with them, gently caress no.

I have a couple of nieces and a nephew. I think that's a better way to do it. Then I can come over, destroy them at video games, buy them ice cream, let them stay up late, and then give them back. :getin:

I bought one. It rules.

Because I am an adult with a job and children it's extremely irresponsible of me to fart around and play video games all day, or when I have to be a parent and set an example that isn't "never put on pants and attach myself to the ps5."

I play my ps5 with the portal like I play my switch. In bed when the kids are asleep as god intended.

Is it dumb? Yeah, but I really like playing my Switch handheld and now I like my ps5 the same way.

an interesting anecdote, however...the PS5 has no games

This is actually very true. I've spent more time playing ps4 games with no load times then I have ps5 games.

Also it's hard when games aren't very considerate of the little time I can spare these days. The Switch and the games for it are much easier to pick up and play for 45 minutes at night. Even with the Portal.

Nah having children owns, playing Nintendo with kids is a top tier gaming experience

lol the switch 2 is gonna still have a 32gb internal sd card drive and nothin else

I doubt it'll be that low but I wouldn't be surprised if it still ends up being somewhat tiny by modern standards size like 128 or 256 GB

Will be interesting to see how they handle expandable memory on the Switch 2, probably just be a Micro SD Card slot again but could be interesting if they take a cue from either Sony or Microsoft in how they've handled it for their current systems

GiantRockFromSpace: Mar 1, 2019; Just Cram It

Okay, I tried redownloading all stuff I could from the e-shop and inserting all my cartridges again on the OLED and I still have the ? save data. So I'm going to guess it's either games that were lent to me, poo poo that got corrupted or savefiles belonging to the extra accounts on the old Switch I didn't transfer. Mostly annoying cause one of them is over 800 MB size and no, it's not Animal Crossing.

So Biomutant is getting ported.

I wonder if it's gotten any polish. It was such an interesting premise but they clearly had too many ideas and not enough polish.

Ooh that game needed more than polish. The whole combat system needed to be revamped, for one. The single narrator, while an interesting idea, made the world flat. And the whole system where you take over territory was just half-baked as heck.
