    New report claims that third party Switch 2 games have sold poorly

    On an actual comparison for an "all digital" platforms, I don't think Nintendo can really compare. Paid online, first party games never being discounted, third party games selling for higher prices than on PC, software/hardware locks, bricking devices. I love Nintendo for the IP they built...

    New report claims that third party Switch 2 games have sold poorly

    Nearly the same here, although I bought Fast Fusion (15€ base price - 2€ of Gold N Points). 😅 For Bravely, I really considered buying it at launch, but seeing it was a Game Key Card or digital version... I decided to pass on it (as I already played the original on 3DS, the nostalgia factor...

    Sony has delisted Horizon Zero Dawn for PC, with remaster now requiring PSN account to play

    Do you remember the presentation, I think it was the E3 or GamesCom, before the launch of the Xbox One and the PS4? Microsoft went first, explaining the whole "full online" bullshit, how your games would be tied to some personal account stuff and all... And then, PlayStation confererence: "Hey...

    Ryujinx emulator taken down after devs reach agreement with Nintendo

    Could also be that the guy got offered a job at Nintendo for development of backward compatibility features. He proved himself in that way, so maybe there's mutual interest and not just threats. But as said, NDA, so we'll likely never know. 🫤

    Palworld developer responds to Nintendo's lawsuit, claims they don't know which patents are being infringed upon

    Someone on the earlier news about Nintendo going for it has commented about two patents that are relevant, and honestly, I like Pokémon and I like Palword, but it will be very difficult to defend against Nintendo on the patents that we're mentioned. And yes, Nintendo AND in Japan are two...

    Community Contest Let's Guess: Switch 2 launch price and offering

    Name - Considering as iterative naming benefitted Nintendo with the WIi/Wii U situation, I assume they'll try to go with something different, so I'm placing my bet on Nintendo Switch Advance Launch price (base model) - 399$ Release date - friday March 14 2024 Launch titles (launch window) -...

    'Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered' gets ESRB rating for PS5 and PC

    Well, I didn't spend that much, but I'm pretty sure running a 2017 game at 1080p or 1440p at maximum settings and stable FPS is more than doable with a more budget friendly configuration. 😅

    'Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered' gets ESRB rating for PS5 and PC

    I run it 4K with maximum graphic settings and don't see the interest of getting a remastered version of the current PC version. Waste of ressources, like Concord wasn't enough.

    Nintendo is suing the creators of Palworld

    What I find strange is that Nintendo rarely goes for patents-related trials compared to intellectual property-oriented actions. But I totally agree that going for the "Pokéball feature" patent makes sense, although I can easily see that kind of infringement with Coromon's Spinners and Tem-Tem's...

    Vita exclusive game Freedom Wars to get remastered release on current gen consoles and PC

    Best news of my day. The OST was also great, but I feel it will need to undergo a heavy remaster. Next... Soul Sacrifice? 😏

    ROM Hack Collaborative hack released to celebrate Pokemon Emerald’s 20th anniversary featuring 386 new sprites from 130 artists

    Very nice work on some sprites (Paras/Parasect line is perfect), but I have the feeling that allowing some 3 yo "artists" to have their first MS Paint project featured wasn't the best idea. 😬 But I like the tribute to Crystal art style and others that are more cartoony, you feel that some...

    Editorial Cassette Beasts is more than just indie Pokemon

    Among my favourite games that I played last year after I built my first-ever PC (I bought the game for its release but couldn't find the time to really dive into it before), so it holds a special place in my heart. It's pretty short, as you can mostly finish the main story line in a week-end...

    Sonic the Hedgehog 3 official movie trailer features Keanu Reeves as Shadow

    Well... Sonic X Shadow Generation is having a mix of levels coming from all the games the black hedgehog appeared. 👌

    Valve plans to bring SteamOS to other third-party devices

    Interesting, I didn't know about that point, thanks for pointing it out. 🙌 I'd be curious to see 3D modeling apps like Blender or Plasticity running on it. I know AMD's latest APUs have been doing wonders, so I'm betting the Steam Deck could run such software with decent results. Anyway, I...

    Valve plans to bring SteamOS to other third-party devices

    Well, Steam OS is heavily oriented towards gaming and the Switch is the same, but in a more closed ecosystem. Can the Steam Deck be used for productivity tasks in its default configuration? 🤔

    Valve plans to bring SteamOS to other third-party devices

    Could also be a Nintendo-like approach, to not flood the market with vastly different hardware option in too short time frames (the differences between the two Steam Deck versions are quite minimal, as are the ones between the Switch models). Personally, I'd be interested by a Steam Deck having...

    Where to buy Instinct-NX v6s modchip?

    Could be tied to the fact the Nintendo EU's headquarters are in Germany (little arrangement with German customs' management?). I tried changing the shipping location to France and it was perfectly shippable.
