Re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
I thought I would be fine. And I am. But I decided to transfer my SW1 to my SW2 so that immediately filled all my space. I wasn't planning on getting a memory card at all but once that happened I just picked up one of the $35 256 gb ONN cards from Walmart. I underestimated how great it was to transfer everything from the SW1 to the SW2 and playing SW1 games on the SW2....you know since there's basically only MKW to play...

I also bought the ONN one a week before launch, works great and the modern microsd cards are soooo much faster
I think I'm going to buy Tony Hawk 3+4 and DK Banaza tomorrow with a Costco ecard.

^ I’m so terrible at Tony Hawk 3 & 4, it’s hysterical.
Playing it on Game Pass. Will buy it on Switch 2 when it goes on sale.

Lo, there was a time when I was pretty good at Tony Hawk games — like, when 3 and 4 were brand new — but when I gave 1+2 a shot, I learned that whatever magic I had was long, long gone.
I feel like I've generally aged alright when it comes to gaming, but Tony Hawk and fighting games are definite weak spots these days.

Re: Nintendo Switch 2 - 06/05/25
All the brouhaha over nothing to play and I've had to put MKW and Fast Fusion aside to play Bananza and next week release SMPJ. I don't have enough time for the SW2 only games I have
And a Direct coming soon. But MKW and DKB are huge time sinks, and I don't know how many hours of grinding Fast Fusion will take to unlock all vehicles and tracks at which point I will consider it "done" and then just play around with new ship builds and just a race here and there for fun.
And I still have to keep up with Speedstorm and have to finish the current Dreamlight Valley Star Path in the next week (only one main thing to do but it's a chore so I'm putting it off which I shouldn't, once I finish it I need 2 days to finish the path.

I'm trying to finish up the new Storybook Vale DLC, that's been an interesting one.

What exactly is an ambio or whatever? Just a little toy?

Basically. It's a toy with an NFC chip inside it, you can scan it to unlock special content in compatible titles.

A new bundle with Pokemon A-Z will be released this fall (I assume with the game's launch). Download code for the game, like MKW was.

While the original Mario Party Jamboree is still apparently a rock-solid party game, it sounds like the Switch 2 updates are a dud.

I played a little of the roller coaster one and liked it. Bought it mostly for my kids, they're gonna love seeing their faces on screen.
Edit: OMG this thing has AIR HOCKEY. Along with Skeeball (sadly not here), my top 2 arcade games. It was a blast the couple of times I played it. It has 14 mouse games. I tried one other one and it was great also.
AIR HOCKEY. Imma spend 80 hours on just that
Great game for the kids, no regrets.
I was worried about having to have room for mouse controls but I just use it on my leg with pants on and it works perfect. Now getting Drag X Drive for sure.
