I’ve listened to nearly every episode of the IC Podcast and read the forum a fair amount and I am certain - certain - that Tim was not the one being insufferable there.

not however but also tbh

Slitterhead is out in 4 days & getting positive but mixed reviews, which, considering the reception Japan Studio /Siren / gravity rush historically has had, im considering good advance news .

Cripes, I’m a couple years out of the habit of checking kotaku regularly but I just wound up there and they’re still on about front page Switch 2 announcement theorizing. Nintendo obviously wouldn’t announce upcoming hardware that’d undermine sales of the current stuff his Christmas—who is this stuff written for?

Apparently there are a lot of people out there who don’t understand that the main reason Nintendo announced the Switch 1 in October was because they knew they couldn’t convince anybody to get a Wii U for Christmas.

Im sad the new switch has BC, foregoing it would be a great Wii U era throwback of bad decisions.

Same. But maybe they’ll finally abandon physical software.

Does software backwards compatibility necessarily mean cartridge backwards compatibility though? They could still screw this up.

I hope they still have a card slot I kinda want to collect all these games compilations. I just picked up The Cowabunga Collection

Gotta imagine Switch 2 games have largely the same physical shape, but with a little tab on 'em, like 3DS games did.
