Yes, Nintendo Switch 2 GameChat could’ve just used Discord, but this is heaps better

The new Nintendo Switch 2 GameChat feature could've just made use of Discord like Xbox and PlayStation, but this new feature is great.

I'm looking forward to the 2 frames-a-second game video chat and game share screen.

yeah not sure why you'd even use those. Obviously it will be network dependent. Maybe that was showing a more worst-case scenario. But I'd just rather talk and not waste even more bandwith streaming a bunch of other people's games on my screen while I'm playing.

You don't just get the 2 frames-a-second, you actually have to pay for the 2 frames-a-second. Cant believe Nintendo put game chat behind a freaking pay wall.

DodoDojo24d ago

To be fair most non F2P multi-player games on every console require online subscriptions anyways.

"This is heaps better"

----> literally has tons of lag as shown in the Direct lol

Neonridr24d ago

Can more than one person share their screen in discord in a channel chat at the same time?

NE: "There have been some scattered claims going around lately saying that Nintendo is phasing out Diddy Kong, for one reason or another. If you have no idea what we’re talking about, that’s completely understandable."

I argue that simple res/FPS bumps should be free, and then you can charge $10 if it includes actual extra content. That seems to be what has been settled on.

Many PS4 games got free upgrades for PS5 when just increasing res/FPS. Days Gone, for example, got a free FPS bump to start the generation. Now it's getting a "remaster", improved visuals/extra modes/content for $10.

I know they have *some* free upgrades - though we don't know what they entail - but the Zelda games just seem like they know they can get money from eager new buyers, so why not. Zelda Notes doesn't quite seem to justify $10, but hey, let us choose. Make it a $10 app, and give the res/FPS upgrades for free.

Weird the Jamboree pack being 20 with no new boards or minigames for party mode, way to miss the mark. Minigame variety is seriously lacking for the party mode compared to superstars, my biggest issue with the game, think I'll pass on that.

I wonder if there will be supply issues (unable to find the system). Interesting that they are launching in the middle of the year as well.

the new Raidou game from atlus eont allow it either.
but will allow upgrading on ps4 to ps5 for free

I means it's the same company that makes you buy gold versions of games if you want the new content so it checks out.

ZycoFox1d 6h ago

It also means you have to buy a game key card if you want a physical copy, screwed over either way.

NotoriousWhiz14h ago

Fake physical. I'd be curious how many opt for that over just buying the digital copy.

Eonjay11h ago

You also have to rebuy any DLC.

GAMERJET9h ago

It's time to wake up. Don't support this practice or the price of the games on Switch 2.

Profchaos6h ago

I don't know what Sega is thinking here especially when they already offer the upgrade free on PlayStation and Xbox for the same game
