" Bravely Second is the sequel to the 2013 3DS JRPG Bravely Default. Despite enjoying the first game’s demo, I never made the jump to actually purchasing the game. But when Bravely Second came out, naturally an evolution and improvement upon the first one’s game mechanics, I just had to get my hands on it. "
Microsoft has now called on Nintendo and Google to aid in its fight with the FTC over its merger with Activision Blizzard.
I’m really starting to despise Microsoft and Xbox at this point. Might just sell the Series X and buy a Switch to compliment our PS5’s. Metroid, Zelda: TotK, and Pikmin 4 are just months away at this point.
@Orchard
why would you want to play the worst versions of PS5 and Xbox SX games? the only thing the SD runs better than the original is Switch games
@badz SD plays most games well. But if it's not up to your standards, just get a PC. PC/SteamDeck + Switch.
“The Nintendo switch is a kids play thing compared to steam deck. It pummels the switch into the ground.”
Not thanks. I enjoy Nintendo games and love the OLED display.
@Orchard,
Your still missing out on alot of PS games doing that, Personally I'd go PS + Switch, but I also have a PC, so for me it's PS + Switch + PC and that gets me almost every game.
One day I'll get a Steam Deck to compliment my PC library of games, maybe when Steam Deck 2 comes out.
orchard...are you bored in life. Do you love pantomime or wanna be the lead attorney for Microsoft if all you do is cap for the brand doing the least. No disrespect intended but have a child , wife or play golf or something because you presence is weird. Dont strike me mods..... dude cant stop
Lmao who gets that mad at a company wow get some therapy step away from the internet this is affecting you way more then you realize. You guys can be comedy in this website thanks for that laugh

I´m still laughing! XD
Personally I share his sentiments, for what MS is doing to the industry.
Fu£k MS, seriously.
“You despise it because of a court battle?“
The fact they’re trying to gobble up the worlds largest 3rd party publisher add over 2 years waiting for system sellers.
S2K - What EXACTLY is MS doing to the industry that you despise so much? Please share your thoughts..
You despise Sony because of what? Great consoles and great game consistenly?
Seems ridiculous hating on the gaming company giving us the most.
Your sd+switch comment is a joke but hey, expect nothing less from you.
Honestly it’s kind of amazing how Phil managed to make people like orchard keep defending the console after 2 generations of mediocrity.
Lol, I get it..but at this point, what are MS to do? Just sit back and let it be blocked?
Also, remember when other companies agreed with Sony, you didn't seem this perturbed.
What? You're overreacting. This is how literally any court case works. Calling on competitors, witnesses, etc., is standard practice. It's called building a defense. The FTC have been doing the exact same in building their case by calling on Sony for example. You don't build a strong case by making unsubstantiated claims, you need witnesses or documents to back them up.
I mean, it’s logic when it comes to any other company, but it’s an issue when MS does it (builds its case.) It’s way too many emotional comments with no real facts to back it up. Just cause a company says something doesn’t make it factual as specially in the court of law. After reviewing the evidence so far the FTC needs a stronger case.
Exactly. Xbox cheerleaders can drive around this road block all they want, but nothing matters more than this! When they start releasing their OWN games, we can start to credit Microsoft with a contribution to accelerating our medium. Until then, they're simply making useless noise.
I got all 3 but most of my play time is between PlayStation and Switch…. Yeah MS needs all the help it can get.

Finally! Do it! Bookmarked!
You can hate the CEO / leadership without hating the product. Don't let company politics ruin your enjoyment of a product.
Also, Switch is great. If you don't have one, I can highly recommend it, even with reduced performance compared to the current gen consoles.
I agree with your sentiment, but they go hand-in-hand. Once a company leaves a bad taste in your mouth, you aren't going to desire their products (or may desire them much less than before). And he clearly isn't alone. Xbox's numbers are down all around. That tells me what the public thinks.
In 2023, they have their work cut out for them. If nothing changes, they will eventually fall into obscurity with Nintendo and Sony continuing to truck along doing what they have for over 25 years — providing experiences you cannot get elsewhere. The multitrillion dollar company could learn a thing or two from those mere mortals.
My combo is PC and PS5. Switch Games are amazing but Nintendo's infrastructure and marketplace puts me off. Decade old games still go for full price and hardly have specials.
You just now despise MS and Xbox? Bro, who you lying to - you been hating on MS and Xbox for yeeeeeeears.
Your mad because the are attempting to buy a company and are calling in people/companies that could possibly aid them in doing so? If the FTC and the UK's counterpart are fighting it - should they just be "okay, okay, you win!" Nah, that's stupid.
Y'all mad for what reason? They are trying to build a bigger better brand and y'all mad. Not like MS and Sony don't own near the same amount of studios, now. It's been lopsided for years but you've never complained or cried foul when Sony was buying up companies/studios.
Get over yourself.
This is what nintendo gets for back stabbing Sony, by entertaining MS stupid offers instead of siding with Sony help them, o well, at this point Nintendo seems to be the more stable of the 3 companies, and they compite with no one at the moment.
Sure, the company whose Play Store revenue you want to diminish will certainly help you in acquiring Candy Crush and COD Mobile.
How will this acquisition have an impact on Googles Android store revenue?
And how are MS trying to diminish their store revenue today? Microsoft even sell devices that run Android and have the Play Store as their marketplace…
I did. I couldn't find any mention of Microsoft planning to pull COD mobile and Candy Crash from the Android Play Store.
Not to mention MS has been a proxy agent in the Apple VS Google saga. So don’t be surprised if MS is banking on that. Slimeballs
Wow.... Microsoft is out of control over this matter. I can't help but wonder how many people are they bribing to get this?
Maybe we will get news that Nintendo and Google both claim MS approach as harassment too after this.
I smell an incredible amount of desperation on Microsoft's part, it's getting to the point where the desperation is disgusting.
Microsoft just stop dragging companies into your own mess if you did to them like you did Sony imo you need to give it up with performance Data. Also isn't Google against Microsoft?
"Google and NoA requested extensions to the deadline to limit or kill their respective subpoenas"
Nintendo have done some really questionable things in the past, and it's time someone exposed their not-so-family-friendly past.
This is a really bad list.... but only because the title sucks and is so all encompassing. If it pointed out that the FANBOYS choose to ignore these things, than sure. But otherwise, these things are well known and documented.
Some of the things are really dumb. Especially the connection to the Yakuza. Their reasons are completely baseless, and really idiotic.

Wtf? Those aren’t even gaming related. At this point this dumb site is as bad as GamingBolt, if not worst.
“ They Charge People To Play Classic Games”
In what world do you get to play classic games for free on other console? 🤦♂️
i used to like the Mario cartoon. On friday's they'd have the Zelda cartoon.
The yakuza connection was that the Yakuza preferred Nintendo playing cards, and Nintendo did nothing to stop them from buying them...because that's what Nintendo should do for some reason. I'd say most gamers don't realize that nintendo didn't start with computer games. "Love Hotels" aren't illegal, anywhere. Unless they were providing escorts, I don't see the problem.
And the last one, yeah, everyone charges for that. No one gives their stuff away for free just because it's old.
Yeah, I'd love for a free service like VC, but I'm willing to pay for the actual games.
RPG fans got a nice surprise at the 2019 Game Awards: A reveal for Bravely Default 2, coming from Square Enix to the Nintendo Switch in 2020. The elation is laced with some confusion, as people are asking "Wait… don't we already have Bravely Default 2 on the 3DS?"
Well, yes. Also no. Indeed, there are already two Bravely Default games—three if you count an earlier edition of the first game that came out in Japan—but the Switch game revealed at The Game Awards is seemingly the first true sequel. Not only does it bear a telltale "2," but the trailer shows off an entirely new cast.
I like how Bravely Second unexpectedly broke the 4th wall later in the game.
One of my favorite game on 3DS/ Top 5 definitely.
Pokemon Moon, Fire Emblem Awakening, Kid Icarus: Uprising, Bravely Second and Senran Kagura 2.
Can't wait to hear more about Octopath Traveler and whenever they announce Bravely Third for Switch
