    • Pledges of all various kinds, formats, and priorities. Love to see it. Oh hey, that was quick! Congrats on having the first cleared game of any pledge! StarFox 64 was a game that somehow won me over last year. Wasn't in the cards, but I finally got all the hubbub. I didn't remember the waterfall from a childhood memory or anything, but I did replay that first level a few times to get used to the controls. At some point, I finally noticed Falco was actually going somewhere when he said "Follow me" Revisiting this game a few more times is definitely worth it. It's definitely the sort of comfy game to play a bit when you just want something familiar. Speaking of comfy action games, my first beaten game of 2025 was a replay of Streets of Rage 2. I picked Axel and just spammed the uppercut all the time. Grand peace of mind.
    • Because smaller nodes are now available and would yield much better battery life & performance. I still don't buy these rumours, purely because it would mean that Nintendo haven't changed the hardware once in the 2-3 years it has been since the T239 was first discovered.  I just don't think it's likely that Nintendo have been sitting on finished hardware for that long.  I also don't think that NVidia would stick with the Ampere architecture when they replaced it with Lovelace roughly 2 years ago (a more power efficient and capable architecture... something important to consider in a battery powered handheld). Furthermore, I don't buy that any of these "leaked" images are actually real.  It's so easy to fake PCBs and 3D print components these days, I can't imagine that Switch 2 is so close to release that anyone would have production hardware to show anyway.  No Nintendo console has ever had images of final physical hardware leaked pre-unveiling before, and I don't expect it to happen now.
    • There goes the hope of seeing this in stores... Maybe CeX
    • One thing I don't understand with the discussion I've seen in other places in the last week is why everyone is so doom and gloom about the APU being on an 8nm process node. The launch model of the Switch was 20nm and the battery life was reasonable then, why would an 8nm chip be any less efficient in relative terms? I can understand being a bit worried about a discrepancy in performance between docked and handheld mode but the first Switch got by just fine so there's no reason why the next one won't be able to perform well in handheld mode. 
    • It seems, to me, like a rather awkward grip if that is going to function as a mouse. But I can totally see that would benefit a lot of games, even though it would limit the ability to press buttons.  Also, one could just use the built in gyro for mouse-ish control. Like in the Magic Remote for LG tvs.
