I think MH Stories 2 might be a sleeper hit, and I'm not just saying that because I'm a MH fanboy. The first game was very ambitious and pushed the 3DS to its limits. Not a bad game, but clearly held back by the hardware. CAPCOM could have something special on their hands.

Rise is gonna be sweet because it's more traditional MH. Stories 2 could be a true hidden gem. Plus Switch doesn't have a lot of RPGs which is pathetic. What happened to the salad days of DS / 3DS rpg avalanche?

End of the day Nintendo aren't in the horsepower game anymore...hence why they are taking the stance: "Fine as you are.."

Apparently Nintendo are saying they are focusing on the existing Switch, rather than looking at a Switch Pro..

I don't know as much as you should always take Nintendo rumors as a grain of salt Nintendo's Jedi PR skills are next to none. I still remember someone point blank asking Miyamoto about a DS XL and he adamantly denied it existed and then for them to announce it less than a month later. Personally, I think it's real, but I really am interested in what they'll do to make it a step up from the current model. I'm definitely in if it has nice features, but just a nicer battery and screen or change in size won't do much for me.

It'll probably be on par with the base Xbox One..or hell the PS4...but I think that is as far as they will go..

Nintendo can still squeeze more life out of the system by unlocking more CPU/Memory profiles.

Edit: The Switch is still technically under-clocked, isn't it?

It is, but I still think we’re getting a revision in late March. It’s was underclocked to save battery life back in 2017, then we had the “longer battery life version”.

I can see them upgrading the chip (but still underclocking it) and giving us a mild performance boost for some games. I’ve said it before, but I do think DLSS and 4K menu will be supported, but the main advantage of it will be more stable frame rates and better resolution in games where it’s variable.

As for Sephiroth, if you have challenger pass 8 or season pass 2, as of right now, an event is happening in smash that if you beat him on the hardest difficulty, you unlock him early, from the news feed!

Happy Christmas NintendoGAF! Did any of you get an NES for Christmas back in the 80s (or 90s even)? Some nice footage as usual from MyRetroLife:




The kid seemed more interested in the other toys than the NES! I got Mousetrap one Christmas too, so that hit me in the nostalgia feels.

Very different from my childhood Christmas. In the video the parents seemed more excited than the kid. My brother and I were always the first to wake up, and the had to sit by the tree guessing what goodies were wrapped up, until our parents to finally got up. I think not wrapping up the NES was pretty unforgivable. The unwrapping was one of the most exciting things about the whole experience for me.

So, I will play more Breath of the Wild now.

Yesterday I arrived at Eventide Island and too bad that you can't save there. I died because a thunder hit me while I was fighting the big boss for the last sphere.

This game is so good. I can't believe that I waited all these years to start to play this one (because I strongly disliked the previous Zeldas).

What is with the no wrapping? That takes the surprise and euphoria of discovery out of it. Lazy Santa! He had a really good Christmas. Those are some great gifts. It reminds me of the joys of some of my favorite Christmas days as a kid.
