Nintendo Switch: Thread 09

[dataDave]

Anyone here played Majora's Mask on Switch via the Expansion Pack membership? I heard N64 games were pretty rough when they launched on Switch but since then Nintendo have been addressing many of the issues. I'd love to play Majora's Mask again but only if the emulation is faithful.

I'd recommend getting a cheap 3DS/2DS and playing that version instead.

As much as I'm not the biggest fan of any of the 3DS N64 ports, they are currently a better bet than what Nintendo have served up with the NSO Expansion Pack.

This is notable mostly because it comes via the Nvidia hack that has occurred but that hasn't stopped Era running to far and in some users cases eyerollingly predicting a 2022 launch for Switch 2

My uncle works at Nintendo, he told me the next version of the Switch will be available worldwide first day of April.

Yours too? I'm looking forward to playing Mario Kart 15 on it.

There's a demo up for Kirby.

It's lovely!

Can't wait to see Switch 2 revealed with BOTW2 and finally see the true visual splendour of the WiiU realised

I'm always up for a bit of zombie shooting but with no light gun support these games have way less appeal. Surely this would have been better as a PSVR release?

It'll sooner or later reach other platforms, it's coming to Stadia too.

Loved that Kirby demo, going to have to pick up the full release I think.

Car Kirby and Vending Machine Kirby are adorable

Advance Wars has been delayed to an unspecified date due to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.

Understandable.

I really don't think it should be delayed, personally speaking, but of course it's understandable why.

Nintendo suspends product shipments to Russia. It's for logistics reasons (ie not enough money in it, they don't bother to reference the war)

Yeah... So it's good global companies are doing this.

But for those doing it now; I mean, they stand to lose almost nothing. You can't ship to Russia, Russian currency has tanked, people can't use services like PayPal to pay for your products anyway...
