Same goes for gamers really. You need to keep some momentum going. I myself am feeling a bit cheated so far. There should have been multiple high profike 3rd party ports available at launch, not only Cyberpunk 2077.

There were a few, Hitman, Yakuza, Streetfighter 6, Cyberpunk, Hogwarts Legacy etc.

Problem is for me at least is that I wont buy game key cards and digital games always drop in price.

But there's no roadmap for Switch 2, everytime a new game is announced for all platforms except switch 2; it feels like Switch 2 is being shunned and no games are coming.

Shenmue 3 and Indiana Jones were announced, Starfield is coming according to Nate the Hate.

EDIT: SE Confirmed its 30fps

FF7 Remake runs at 40fps on Switch 2, looks better than the ps4 version and is the best thing Digital Foundry has seen running on switch 2 apparently.

DIgital Foundry: "I'm just going to say it: Right now, this is the best-looking thing I've seen on Switch 2. Seeing that game running at a stable 30 frames per second, with that excellent motion blur, especially, um, it looked fantastic. It was completely stable. It looked on par -- actually, I would say it looks better than the PS4 version of the game. ... It's going to fall somewhere between the PS4 and PS5 versions... The image quality was absolutely superb. Like it really looked great; it matched the 1080p screen. I was really, really happy about that."


Hitman World of Assassination patch now locks the frame rate. I would have bought this if it was physical.

I've been playing the post-credits content of DK:Bananza, but I'm not sure I'll have the willpower to complete it.  It relies heavily on the Bananza's and to be frank: most of them are not much fun and have fiddly controls.

The snake is annoying.

I completed the alternate path in Cyberpunk Phantom Liberty.

No happy endings in this game it seems.

Now I need to do 2 more alternate endings to the main game.

Happy Birthday! I made you a cake too. Since it would go stale before I could ship it to you, I also ate it myself to commemorate this joyful day.

I would love to see one more Arkham game.  I've played Asylum and City many times over. Arkham Knight is hard to get through because the car combat is such a drag. I'd even settle for a digital release of Arkham Origins.

I wish was still into story driven games. Arkham collection is $6 on PSN right now, but I know I won't play it much.

I got Topspin 2K25 this morning for $15.

Just did the Reed ending in the main game after you stop Somi.

No happy endings here. Quite strange when you're used to winning at the end of most games.

Very melancholy.

Wow the 1tb Play pro micro sd card express is £210 on amazon, reduced from £280

I swear the price has actually inflated and gone up a lot.

When it was first listed it was way lower.

Bit bummed out.

The last ending I got in Cyberpunk was the most miserable. Everything sucks.

Sad way to end things. The Panam ending seems to be the best.

Anyone a No Man's Sky fan?

I've been watching videos around it for ages but I can't seem to pull the trigger on this game.

It looks a bit aimless to me and I fear the blandness of procedural generation.

The base building seems like something that's too much faff to me.

I'd like something more story focused. What's the gameplay loop?

No man's Sky has a main story path to follow and quest line. I didn't follow it much yet but it's there for people that prefer some kind of progression. I wouldnt expect the story to be anything like Cyberpunk, though.

Or you can just go explore, craft things.

I play it mostly to zone out and explore and fly around in my spaceship.
