Was this the Pokemon game that was showcased last year where the Switch was barely running it and all the clipping etc?

If so it seems to have improved dramatically, although you can see some engine struggles with the npc is the snowy environment.

Edit: The Pokémon sizes seem off...

All pokemon games on switch have had criticism about the graphics.
Remember that tree in the background of the open world in sword/shield lol.

On the one hand I understand the ppl who give Gamefreak shit for this and expect more, but I personally don't care about getting PS5 graphics in my Pokemon games. As long as the gameplay is fine I'm happy.

I can totally understand people wanting better graphics in pokemon games. The Pokemon universe is one of the most liked and most wanted "dream worlds" we have in our world nowadays (just look how popular Pokemon Go is/was).

But Nintendo's focus is just not on graphics

You're probably thinking about Pokemon Legends: Arceus? That game came out early this year and was met with moderate criticism for not fully delivering on the promise of open-world (it wasn't so much a promise as a community extrapolation based on early advertising) as well as issues with the graphics). These were announced a couple of months ago or so, I believe.

You guys are just going to have to wait for the inevitable remake on the Switch 4 for these games to get the FF14 grapes treatment.

The Nintendo Direct Xenoblade Chronices 3 Presentation

The Retromania Wrestling update finally came to the Nintendo Switch!

Nintendo is like that Rock Band that only plays in small arenas and clubs that fit 2,000 or less people. They create their own over-demand. This allows them to do stuff like make the OLED version and crank up the price. LOL.

They must be playing in a lot of small arenas and clubs, considering they historically have had more fans than any other rock band lol.

In this case, teraflops are like decibels. While there are certain demographics that love really loud music, a more mainstream sound level appeals to more people.

I hope this new baseball game forces Super Mega Baseball 3 to go on sale at a lower price so I can convince more people to buy it.

Of course, if the lag in this new game is better than SMB3 ... i can just switch to that game.

Sold out 107 million small arenas!

Unlike the now defunct XBOX1 and PS4 bands whose tickets prices plummeted 90% .... Nintendo ticket prices went up!
Also , the cost of touring for the Nintendo band is way lower than for the XBOX Series X band. No big graphics and sound systems need to be trucked around. So it is easier for Nintendo to turn a profit.

They also want to turn in a profit on their hardware sales, unlike Sony and Microsoft. I think some of their repeat customers are caused by clumsy kids dropping and breaking their handhelds. And you know dad is going to buy them a new one because he needs to finish his game too.

Mario Strikers is like the Brood War of sports games.

There's endless mean BS you can lose to, but when you can pull it off and either deflect all the crap that is thrown at you or successfully ruin the match for the other player by doing some nasty BS yourself, it's very satisfying.

The Killer Khan "Poison Mist" @ 2:43. How does he hold that in his mouth the entire match?

Owned Astral Chain since 2019 but stopped playing after 2 chapters because another game grabbed my attention.
Now 3 years later I've finally gotten back to it and completed the game, and damn it's really good! Some classic over-the-top Japanese bits but otherwise solid, recommend.
Mainly for the attention of DPB because somehow this game didn't make his list of ~100 switch games he's played yet.

Next up is Octopath Traveler which has been lying in my closet for even longer, didn't really click the first time I played it, time to give it another chance.
