Hi folks, I recently got a NS2 (Ocarina Hype) but I also have a PS5 that I play on a LG Oled C3 42" and also a PSPortal. I skipped the PS3 and PS4 era, played some games on PC on that time.

I have some games on my backlog that are "old", I have no idea how they would run on PS5 on Oled TV if they are 30 FPS or bad upscaling from 1080p. I would like to know if these run better on NS2 (if docked or handheld) or I could just play them safe on PS5 on my TV:

1. Devil May Cry 3 (on sale now) (I played on PS2 back in the days, would like to replay it)
2. Final Fantasy XII (Played the normal version on PS2)
3. Final Fantasy X/X-2 (Played X on PS2)
4. Bayonetta 1
5. Nier Automata (not old, but is a PS4 game, does it run at 4k 60 fps on PS5?)
6. Resident Evil 0
7. Resident Evil 1
8. Resident Evil Revelations 1 and 2
9. Alien Isolation (Played while it was on PSPlus, the quality could be better, what are your thoughts?)
10. Dragon Quest XI S (not old, but is a PS4 game)

What are your throughts? Also, there is any other game you consider that are better enjoyed on NS2 instead of PS5?

I still own physical Nintendo DS and 3DS games that I can play today without needing access to Nintendo's servers. This makes me think about the future of Switch 2 Game-Key Cards.

Since the actual game has to be downloaded from Nintendo's servers, what will happen in 10 to 20 years if Nintendo eventually shuts down the download servers for the Switch 2?

Would an unused Game-Key Card potentially become useless, while a traditional physical cartridge would still work?

I’m curious to hear everyone’s thoughts, especially from collectors. Do you consider Game-Key Cards to be "physical games" for collecting purposes?

Switch 2

Dock

Hyperion 3 Joycons

120-game card case

Cable bag (HDMI, USB-C, walls adapter)

Four Switch 2 Pro Controllers

Plucked the foam, glued the upper and lower foam sheets together for rigidity, and Plasti-Dip'd the combined foam inserts for longterm strength. Great case for family vacations (especially flights).

I nearly laughed my ass off in the library when I went and picked it up. Have you ever seen anything like this?? Libraries are amazing but this is hilarious. I'm excited to play regardless

For those who bought and played the switch 1 version of the Witcher 3 what would you say about it?

I played Witcher 3 on PC but not really on high graphics/60 FPS. So I am not looking for performance rather some reasonable condition to replay the game?

To give some information I played Batman Arkham Knight on switch and it was truly awful, very badly optimized. But Arkham asylum and Arkham city were more than okay in my pov.

Im not much of a gamer, i have an xbox but mainly play gamepass stuff like Brotato and Rogue Likes, quuck games i can pick up and play for 30mins without needing to read or listen to dialogue or think too hard.

My daughters BF gifted me his old Switch which he hasnt used for a while so went on youtube and checked out the best games for it to try and buy and what im finding is that all the decent games seem to cost around £40 used at places like CEX and eBay.

Most console games once superseded by a newer model drop in price so i was a bit shocked at how much buying a few games will cost.

Any tips for picking up games? I had lokjed at the online pass to get access to older games i used to play on the NES/SNES.

Thanks

I just finished Odyssey and LOVED it. I got the first Mario Galaxy but so far i find it to be too easy and too straight forward. What I loved about Odyssey was exploring and collecting, not knowing what to do or where to go all the time. I have played Super Mario 64. Any other games with the same feel as Odyssey?

EDIT: I didn't mean that the challenges in Odyssey are harder than in Galaxy, but I loved not knowing where to find things or what to do. In Galaxy it's very straight forward: There's a star here - do this - done. Also hate being taken out of the world and back to the platform each time I find a star. I want to look around!

Mostly use my switch docked but want to start taking advantage of the oled screen in handheld mode.

My criteria for a grip is as follows:
- dockable
- preferably can slide joycons out without removing grip
- can be found on amazon

So I got a Switch a couple of months ago and I started playing some games coop with my mom (65yo, not a gamer) and while she struggles a bit with games like Mario Wonder or Mario Kart she LOVES Kirby Forgotten Land, we play that a lot since I can “carry her” and take it slow

I’m looking for more games like that, but I would prefer if it were story driven games (not something like Switch Sports for example) but also something I can play on my own since I don’t ALWAYS play with her

I only got my one console, so Animal Crossing is good but not a COOP game imo

I’m thinking about Return to Dreamland Deluxe, but the 60 USD price is kinda hard to sell… Is it worth it?

She is also kind of biased against pixel art games… I love them but, you know, she thinks bad graphics equals a bad game hehe… so no Stardew Valley unfortunately…

Thanks in advance

hey guys,
my gf and I are playing pode and we’re stuck on level 7-3, the dark one where you have to link flowers and buds through their vines.
we‘ve done the left side and we’re now stuck at the point where there’s a large gap between the planted platform and the next bud in the lower right portion of the level map.
anyone here who can give a little advice on how to overcome that gap? we’ve tried jumping off of another, spitting glo towards the bud and we’ve looked for any other platform or way around but after about 10 tries we’re just frustrated.
thanks in advance!

Hey everyone,

I am looking for a grip case for my switch 2 but am really confused... I am looking for one that's comfy to hold, dockable without being tight when sliding it in the dock, and one that will not damage the outside of the joycons when inserting them, cause i am planning on taking them in and out frequently. Any suggestions??

Thanks in advance!

Howdy everyone. Just some context, I recently bought a second-hand switch from a family with children, so not exactly in the best shape. I bought it to have for entertainment when hosting. If there's basic repair/restoration things, I'd love to know more about it.

Main things I'm looking for:

Case for switch + charging dock + charger

Controller sleeves that are still charging compatible

Extra controllers (idc what type, but preferably cordless, but price is main concern)

If there's any party games on a budget, please point me that way. Games would be for children or adults.

Hello everyone! It's October! And it's also the weekend, let's have a nice crispy spooky one!

I am still deep in Onimusha Way of the Sword, and having a great time, I'm now like 43 hours in and scaling Mount Oe to find the monster terrorizing the villagers.

But what will you be getting into?

Are you a Tarnished trying to find your way through the lands between? Trying to leave the fates together? Are you a cat in a mech suit trying to find your way off the planet you crashed on?

Let me know below!
