Gone are the days where japanese games truly reigned supreme over all, in fact one could even argue that Japan is now actually going to start falling behind with the great technological advances in Europe and America.
Whether this happens or not I still believe Japan produces truly the greatest games! I mean if you look at games like COD4, Oblivion, Ratchet and Clank (all one of the best in thier game genre) they fall short to games like Metal Gear Solid and Final Fantasy every time on the story front. Sure they all provide inticing gameplay, nice graphics and an engrossing story: but thier story's are never comparable to the likes of a Final Fantasy.
This emotional story element for me is one of the most important aspects of games and one that I have not yet seen come from outside Japan. I love the stories of Final Fantasy so much that I can ignore the turn based battle system in it! I usually find the system so tedious in games, but the story is engrossing enough to pull me through that.
The cinematic quality of these games threatens the movie industry in fact! Why pay to see a story unfold before you when you can be part of that story?
So other developers should take a leaf out of Square Enix's and Konami! =)
first one i've done of these blog things he he... There pretty fun!
Son Heung-min Fortnite collaboration confirmed for June 21 with exclusive skin and Snap Ceremony emote bundle.
The Nintendo Switch 2 may receive support for docked mode 4K and 120 Hz output at some point in the future.
hopefully VRR via a firmware update is released for docked play as well (like the PS5 did post release)
There's actually a pretty long list of games on PS5 that support 120hz. Even more with 60+hz unlocked, and that isn't even counting PS5 Pro.

Yes, according to the dock teardown. It contains HDMI hardware chip of Realtek RTD2175N that supports 4K 120hz. And the HDMI included on the Switch 2 is HDMI 2.1.
Nintendo Switch 2 breaks US launch sales record, selling over 1.1 million units in its first week. This breaks the record set by PS4.
I'm happy for Nintendo. Even though the Switch 2 has received so much hate just to bring it down, it hasn't won. Even though some are saying they'll boycott Nintendo, it hasn't affected sales. Especially now, with word of mouth that the system is good, demand for the Switch 2 will definitely increase more.
But But the internet told me the switch 2 was going to be a failure.
Such a good system im having a blast with it and really enjoying my first ever playthrough of yakuza 0
Sold through or to the stores? Asking because they're tons of them at my local Best Buy. When the PS5 and Series consoles launched, you couldn't find them anywhere.
The article clearly says sold. If it were shipped, it would say shipped.
Nintendo had been saying the last year or so that they would be flooding stock so that scalpers would not be an issue. They've followed through with their word. It's not cutting edge tech, so it's been easier for them to sit on stock for a while until it accumulated to a massive number available to be shipped.
Good for them, I'm still not buying.
Looks to be a pretty safe and boring upgrade over Switch 1 which I don't think they can top it on how plain looking it is design wise.
Shame since Switch Lite showed they still know how to make a handheld that looks good and is actually portable in a classic Nintendo sense.
That's why I got one over Switch 2's block of charcoal.
Then there's the prices of it all and the whole Key card thing destroyed any sense of game ownership.
There'll be a number of revisions for the s2 like a s2 lite or oled also seems inevitable
Unless they drop the prices and actually has a more portable variant that can also dock then maybe I'll reconsider but as of now, nope too big too boring and expensive to make it worth this early, not enough of its own games atm as well.
Who knows removing the dock capabilities would lower the cost of the unit pretty significantly.
The cost of the dock, reduction in shipping costs etc bug savings which will enable a cheaper system
I agree. MGS3 was the first game to make me cry - I just sat there when the epilogue carried on and couldn't keep my eyes dry. That's nothing a review could have told me.
There are some games that aren't just games, but art, imho.
yeah dude... Nothing beats a great story..
stories, True or make-believe can change peoples lives.
MGS3 made chuck norris cry.
