3H definitely had the better story, and the split between 3 storyline was cool. Engage had a weaker story but a really fun and cool combat system. Invoking past heroes was super fun and better than the army system of 3H.

I still haven't played 3H or Engage, having elected not to get them until I finally get around to playing the two versions of Fates I already own (and I guess watching a playthrough of Revelations, since it's no longer available).

At least story-wise, it appears to be related to 3H (not sure if prequel or sequel). I'd expect it to also be similar gameplay-wise.


Maybe they can bring back Ladislava.

Doug Bowser is retiring, Devon Pritchard to take over NOA.

I feel like Bowser only just took the job, but I guess it's actually been quite some time. He didn't really have the presence that Reggie had, though that's probably compounded by Nintendo's shift away from having press conferences that the NoA president would need to present at.

Went to GameStop for the shiny Pokmon event. I was hoping to pick up Three Houses. They didnt have it ;-; guess not surprising since it is several years old.

They only gave it to him because of his surname.

I've seen speculation that it might have been teasing more Pikmin, because of the music, but as far as I've been able to tell everyone seems baffled by it. At face value, it seems like Nintendo's just trying their hand at Pixar-style shorts.

It appears it was indeed Pikmin. There's also an update coming for Pikmin 4 with a couple of new features, including a difficulty setting.

Ooh Pikmin 4 update :0 any word on updated graphics or new content?

Nope. The additions are photo mode, difficulties, and the ability to find decorative Pikmin that can be exported to Pikmin Bloom. No mention of graphics, a Switch 2 edition, or any more substantial.

I did really like Pikmin 4. Dunno when I'll be replaying it, but I think it might be my favourite Pikmin, and I feel silly for waiting so long to play it (though I can say the same about a lot of my backlog).

:0 big Animal Crossing updates coming on Switch 2

Content-wise, it seems like the biggest updates are coming to Switch 1 as well. The Switch 2 upgrade looks to mostly just be graphics, mouse controls, and voice/video chat for multiplayer, so that's an upgrade I won't worry about skipping (not that I've actually played AC since 2020).

I like that they casually showed bulk crafting but didn't actually mention it, despite it being such a massive QoL improvement.

Do you need to buy the Switch 2 version for Animal Crossing?

Some of the updates outlined in the recent video are exclusive to the upgrade, but most of the actual gameplay ones are just part of the free update.

Switch 2 exclusive stuff:
  • Graphical updates
  • Mouse controls for arranging furniture and designing patterns
  • Megaphone item: lets you call out a resident's name using the microphone and they'll answer, letting you know where they are by the direction of the response
  • Maximum players in one online game increased from 8 to 12 if all 12 have the Switch 2 version
  • Voice/video chat via Gamechat, including face cams over your character


General updates:
  • New Hotel building, offering a mini-Happy Home Designer experience (design rooms for guests to visit) and a bunch of new items
  • Bulk crafting
  • Two new tiers of storage upgrade: 7000 and 9000 (but not over) items
  • Can store trees, shrubs, and flowers
  • Resetti added, can reset an area of your choosing to its default state
  • "Slumber Island" - access up to 3 untouched islands that you can do anything with without affecting your base game (works with multiplayer)
  • Bunch of new Nintendo-themed items, including retro consoles that can be used to play classic games available through NSO if you have a subscription (I think it's just one per system, but it's a bit unclear)
  • Lego collab items
  • Zelda collab items/residents via amiibos
  • Splatoon residents via amiibos
  • Splatoon collab items (I think available to everyone regardless of amiibo, but it's unclear)


It's quite a lot for a free update four years after what was supposed to be the last one, but I guess they wanted to kindle people's interest to coincide with the Switch 2 edition/upgrade.

Im about 12 hours into DQ3. Level 33. Have not class changed yet, waiting for level 40. And to catch 50 monsters for double cast. I beat Orochi, first orb Ive collected. Im thinking my Mage will become a Warrior, my Priest a Martial Artist and my Wrangler will become a Sage. Or maybe the Priest should become a Wrangler for a while so I can keep catching monsters with ease.

Mega Chimeco :0 and raised level cap.

Anyway made it to Alefgard in DQ3. Been grinding on Super Slime Island.
Also I didnt realize Age of Imprisonment was out this week. I thought it was in like a month or something. I do want it but I think Ill wait a bit, since Air Riders and MP4 are coming up.

Also, WTF? This Nintendo Store app has your entire Nintendo play history. It shows you every game you played on every platform youve used your Nintendo account. It shows every play session, date first played, date last played, total play time, and number of times played. Why isnt this just built into the Switch 2. Yeah there is a play log in Switch/Switch 2 but its incomplete and bad. And here this app drops and has everything in it.

Every time I've subscribed, I've always cancelled it immediately so that when renewal rolls around, it's a matter of opting in and not opting out. I find that's a good way to avoid keeping unnecessary subscriptions "just in case."
