@SuperBro64 you’re never alone, but backlash and negativity will always be loudest, even here unfortunately. You are never alone and if you’re having fun, that’s all that matters my friend, keep it up.
Here remind me when I finally get a Switch 2 next year, to check these guys out so they can ***** all over it. Or maybe, maybe… I’ll just play games and have fun 🤷
I don’t watch the news anymore to avoid the relentless negativity. Headlines like this, while good for generating clicks I’m sure, put me off altogether.
Would it be fair to say the latest DOOM has underperformed? Assuming it comes to Switch 2, I will definitely get it there next year when I hopefully climb aboard the S2 bandwagon.
Amazing! Hogwarts charting like a Nintendo evergreen, love to see it 👌 multiple Switch re-entries and climbers, fantastic stuff. Can’t argue with the cold hard facts, and that’s what this chart shows. And yes, I’m aware this is physical only.
A lot of Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for me! I have been playing MK8 since 2013, unbelievable 😆 trying to get Gold and three stars on all the Booster Course Cups… on Mirror Mode. If I achieve that, and I’m more than halfway there, I MAY attempt the same on 200cc. My son has been playing a lot of Splatoon 3, but we’ve had a great weekend outdoors too. I did my fortnightly Parkrun with my wife and daughter walking it… I ask them every other Friday evening who’s doing the Parkrun with me, and they finally took me up on the offer 😅, two visits to a local Forest Park, (Castlewellan ), and even got our paddle board out for the first time this year, which was great fun. Enjoy what’s left of your weekend guys ✌🏻
The servers are not going to be turned off in a few years. I’m sympathetic to the point of this article, but I REALLY dislike the scaremongering and deceit.
Bullies, ugh. I’ve been bullied and mocked most of my life for my love for Michael Jackson, but I’m proud to be his fan, 30+ years now, and I always will be. Thanks for sharing Ollie. I bought a GameCube with RE4, Mario Kart Double Dash and Viewtiful Joe. Three absolutely incredible games, RE4 was mind blowing to me. Metroid Prime as well, truly stunning. Good times!
@BaldB3lper78 slowing? In that case so is Japan, nothing is gonna match launch week, is it now? Some of you doom mongers need to open the curtains, let some sunshine in son.
@Otoemetry I have nothing against any group, race, creed or religion, I’m not trying to troll anyone, nor will I be forced to hate anyone or follow someone else’s agenda.
@Otoemetry eliminating? Wise up. I don’t hate anybody, and I certainly won’t be forced to either. You seem to live with hatred, not me. Have a good day, if there’s any room for good.
@Otoemetry call me a fool then. Oh wait, you just did. Look at the bile directed at her, it works both ways. I’d love to know when standing up for women became the wrong thing to do, used to be just common decency. Times have changed I guess.
@Otoemetry I’m sorry but that’s just nonsense. Coming for gay rights next? Come on. My son is gay, loves Harry Potter world and no problem with JK Rowling. The hatred is towards her. Anyway, on topic, I love this chart.
@ChakraStomps it really deserves a review, especially now with the Switch 2 version being a massive improvement on a game my son adores on Switch 1. Still leaves a really bad taste in my mouth they chose not to review.
Nice to see Hogwarts performing so well, especially on Nintendo hardware. Lots of Switch games getting a boost too. Good times, hope it keeps up. For Father’s Day my kids got me a money tin with a pic of a Switch 2 slapped on to it, so the saving for my own has officially commenced 😆
I gotta get those three stars. My daughter’s boyfriend (grrrr) sent me a Snapchat yesterday to show me he’d came first on the Acorn Cup, 150cc on MK8D. I simply replied, ‘Only one ⭐️…’ 😆
@WiltonRoots it’s funny because I was late outta work and I had to walk home in the POURING rain here, then go back down the street to get my daughter 😆 I’m playing MK8D on my Switch 1 while every single person currently online on my Friend List is playing there shiny Switch 2s… but I’m in a good mood too regardless 😊
My son is really invested in Splatoon 3 at the minute, I mean loving it all over again. So excited for Christmas for him to get the benefit of playing on Switch 2!
@rjejr aw flip me 😆 we were REALLY lucky, my wife had been looking at the weather before we went and was telling me it was not looking good… I told her I didn’t wanna know and there’s nothing we can do about that anyway so I don’t wanna be worrying about it 😅
Some people seem to want these things to drift 🙄 a lot of negativity surrounding Switch 2, very weird and random. Some folks don’t like to see people, companies, entities, THINGS do well, not for too long anyway. I’m excited for Christmas Day, and then hopefully I’ll get my own some time in 2026
@Flashlink99 my son absolutely loves it on Switch. He’s 14 and is not easily fobbed off. I have secured him a Switch 2 for Christmas and I’m excited to see how much better it is there, but take nothing away from the Switch version, he has enjoyed it immensely.
I think we can put to bed now the line that UK is not Nintendo friendly. The Wii U was a disaster everywhere and Nintendo hardware might not always dominate here, but they’re not exactly niche either.

Former Nintendo Execs? Kit and Krysta?! 😆 They’re harmless enough as far as I’m concerned, but come on @nintendolife

Resident Evil for Switch 2… please 🙏
Re: Nintendo Switch 2 System Update 20.1.5 Is Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
The Switch 2 will NEVER be as stable as the Switch 1. These stability wars are futile and need to end.

@FortniteJ Did Nintendo also pull your pigtails and steal your lunch money?

Re: UK Charts: Yes, Two Mario Kart Games Are In The Top Ten
@Ulysses for the record, I have no problem with JK Rowling.

Re: UK Charts: Yes, Two Mario Kart Games Are In The Top Ten
@Coalescence I see what you did there 😆 Very good lol
