And those nips kinda drift off to the side...

1805d ago 2 agree3 disagreeView comment

So everyone with drift plays wrong?

My left launch joycon failed in two years and its repair failed two years later (the same timing as my right launch one). I had a right joycon drift separately after only a year.

Every-single-person with a Switch that I know personally has had drift.

According to a simple online search, Japan has among the highest gender pay gaps in the developed world.

You people really never bother to think beyond a headline.

And by the time Switch hit its 4th year, it already outsold the entire 3DS family by about 10 million. It's easily over 11m by now.

Sales Data is right on their site. As of March 31, 2021 - Switch was at 84.59m, vs 75.94m for 3DS. That's 3DS + XL + 2DS aaand all of their "New" refreshes since the OG 3DS in 2011. Against only the Switch and Switch Lite that released starting in 2017.

Why are some of you people so allergic to reality?

This is just the Switch's version of the 3DS XL that people forget existed before the more-powerful New 3DS/New 3DS XL.

The 3DS (Switch) had both a 2DS (Switch Lite) and a 3DS XL (Switch OLED) before the New 3DS (Switch Pro).

They're doing nothing new, they've just taken longer compared to their hardware release cadence from the 3DS era. They're a lot more successful with the Switch so they have no reason to give a price drop.

Disappointment is one thing, but these some of these articles and the whining are reaching into entitlement.

This article and its inaccuracies are Sony's own fault for having different upgrade paths for so many of their games.

Death Stranding is a single $10 upgrade fee to the PS5 Director's Cut version for existing owners, where the Director's Cut content is PS5 exclusive.

This is different than Sony's other recently-announced Director's Cut for Ghost, which has both a $10 PS5 upgrade fee and a $20 Director's Cut upgrade fee. Unlike Deat...

Oh I think Death Stranding's $10 fee is great compared to Ghost of Tsushima's split $20 DC and $10 res-bump model.

No - it's locked behind a $10 fee, but the PS4 version has a solid 60fps patch. The Director's Cut content for it is a separate $20 fee.

Another PlayStation exclusive PS5 upgrade, another new upgrade path!

FF7R: Free upgrade, $20 for the DLC
GoT: $10 upgrade, $20 for the DLC

Now DS: $10 upgrade, DLC included as part of the upgrade.

For the players indeed...

Completionist, not knowing so early in this RPG how the grind/difficulty scaling will be.

Both of those reasons kept me in the Hinterlands so long I got tired of the lack of progression and stopped playing. Self-fulfilling I guess but the game wasn't trying to push me back to the story. By the time I did, it wasn't worth it anymore.

I think I'm in a swamp area last I checked in on it.

When did consoles do this before without any developer support going into it? Heck, when in PC does this even happen, you fool?

PC games are typically unlocked by developer intent, and if they're not, you've got a horrible PC port (like Dark Souls 1 is with its 30fps cap) or a user-developed mod to unlock it (which DS1 has). Not at all the same concept as FPS Boost.

This is an odd article. There are over 50 touch games already. Something is there from many different genres.

The service just got browser (most importantly- iOS) support out of beta and they just got Series X servers. Microsoft consistently markets this first and foremost for controller-based input.

Which is good - why push *now* for screen-obscuring inputs when there is still much room for improvement to be made with latency?

Switch 2 better use that ML hardware to know when drift is happening, to auto-file a support ticket and repair box sent to us.

... since they still won't fix drift itself by then. Womp womp :/

DirectML being the "next DirectX 12" is like saying DirectStorage is the next one. DirectML, like DirectStorage will be, is one of the components available in DirectX 12.

"Stop with all the fancy features" because you're just too stupid to know anything that you go out of your way to complain about.

Wrong, DJ. The Medium is not on Xbox One.

Well, this is the interview that other websites have been taking quotes from over the last week. We already know everything he said from those... since this interview was from the 29th

The Switch still has some supply issues and did throughout 2020, all the while having Joycon Drift. 2021 YTD they're the highest unit seller in at least both the US and Japan, and in Japan they're outpacing both their own 2020 sales, and outselling the PS5 nearly 5-1.

They read *that* room quite well.

It's only been on Console & PC - now that Series X chips are in the servers, Series exclusive games like The Medium (and Flight Simulator later this month) can come to the Cloud side of the service

The battery on my launch unit Switch is shit after all these years, been mostly Handheld. The first model of the system only got to about half of what the current one is.

Wish it wasn't $350 either, but finally getting that better battery life in a screen better than a Fire tablet is welcome.
