Arg! I’ve got to dodge spoilers all day so that I can watch this at home with my family! See y’all in the comment sections Friday!

UK price confirmed £395 on their website.

Bloodborne spiritual sequel DuskBloods announced, exclusive to Switch 2.

$450 on the US store and $500 for the bundled game.

I'm pretty excited about this.

[–] marzhall@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

Honestly, the most surprising and exciting moment was seeing the dog being pet in Daemon X Machina 2. Not being able to do that was torture in the first game

All I need is Xenoblade 2 Remaster

That was a mess.
Mostly games that aren't theirs, paid upgrades for all 5 games they are using as exclusives from the switch 1 library. A proprietary micro SD card that doesn't even exist past 256GB right now.

But hey now we can have a zoom call from the switch using a microphone that is across the room and from the asterisk when they showed it doesn't work with headphones at all.

I have loved Nintendo. I certainly don't right now.

I am not excited about this at all. Nothing they showed made me want to shell out $400 to $500 for this. I think I'll give out a few years until the first price drop or when I can get a refurbished one for a bit cheaper.

[–] Krauerking@lemy.lol 3 points 11 months ago

Same. I wasn't given new UI or fixes just a bunch of equipment I would have e to buy brand new and all over again for games I would have to rebuy that still didn't even work right in their pre-recorded demo.

The fact they have a paid tech demo for the new console tells on then so much for what they want from their customers and I won't participate.
