The most surprising part (or is it?) of the roadmap were the low budgets. The new 'main' games have a 20M budget, Z-A had a 13M budget. Considering their profit margins, that's criminally low lol. They could make these games so much better if they wanted to. | ||

I'm about 3/4 of the way done with the main story of the game, and I've also been focusing on side quests and filling the Pokedex every step of the way. Rotating through those different objectives has been really fun; nothing feels too redundant or boring. The game's tutorial (i.e., "the introduction that limits your exploration") is about 2-3 hours long - which feels a little longer than it needs to be - and after that you can explore almost the entire open The scores and reviews for Pokemon Legends: Z-A have been all over the place, seemingly ranging from 10/10 to around 6/10, with a Metacritic average of 80% ( https://www.metacritic.com/game/pokemon-legends-z-a/critic-reviews/?platform=nintendo-switch-2 ). Most universal critiques include mundane graphics, a lack of voice acting, and the decision to have the entire game inside a single (albeit large) city. Positives include: framerate is smooth, story is unique (both Pokemon Legends games break the mold and don't simply repeat the gyms trope), characters are memorable, verticality is well constructed, gameplay loop is addicting, battle system feels amazing, and the Pokedex is surprisingly large (basically the same size as Pokemon Legends: Arceus). I haven't completed the game yet, and I don't know what the post-game has in store for me, but I've been enjoying the game so much that I even pulled an all-nighter from Saturday into Sunday. Unless something drastically changes within the game, I'm predicting that Pokemon Legends: Z-A will be landing around my A+ tier. | ||

Switch1 now has 2 solid wrestling games. Retromania Wrestling goes from a 6.5/10 to 7.75/10 with a $10 DLC. I might adjust my 7.75/10 scores upwards if I unearth more depth and strategy in the core combat loop. Also, AEW Fight Forever is quite good. I can still find matches for online PvP. WWE2K25 is DQ-ed because of the kickout lag bug. I am surprised RGT85 glosses over this issue. Most YouTubers have a cat or dog in the background to add warmth and friendliness to their review. RGT85 has a Hulk Hogan action figure in his background.  . | ||

EDIT: at Walmart with no pack-in game the price is $410. It has been interesting watching Nintendo And Microsoft try to increase their system prices and then getting resistance from powerful retailers.

https://metro.co.uk/2025/10/22/nintendo-switch-2-mario-kart-world-bundle-gets-first-price-cut-need-quick-24494881/ i think consumers complaining about the high price of the Switch2 isn't just idle whining. | ||
