I would hesitate to use metrics by Google Search and social media discussion. Those numbers don’t necessarily reflect viewership. I know that the person behind this story doesn’t have those numbers, but social media alone can heavily skew the perception of high viewership for low audience content.

Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1 Adds 60FPS Support for Switch 2
Tonight, Konami has released the final update for the Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection Vol. 1, which enabled 60FPS support for Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater on Nintendo Switch 2. Both games previously ran at 1080p but were locked to 30FPS on Nintendo Switch. This update also packed in the feature to upgrade the image resolution to "High Resolution Mode" in…

No crossplay for Dead Or Alive 6: Last Round. I really hope Team Ninja reconsiders. There’s still 5 months until the release date, at least announce that it’s coming at a later date. Tekken and Virtua Fighter both have crossplay, you need to have feature pairing with your rivals for this comeback!

I am still hoping for a Dead Or Alive 30th Anniversary collection this year. Getting the DoA games on other consoles besides Xbox would be a big win.

Dead Or Alive 6: Last Round’s trailer just hit Koei Tecmo’s channel. As somewhat expected it’ll also becoming to Xbox and Steam. No Switch 2, though. :(

Pretty great State Of Play! The standouts for me were Dead Or Alive 6: Last Round and 7, MGS4 leaving PS3 jail and God Of War Trilogy.

I’m genuinely excited for TC to get his flowers. Hope that God Of War Trilogy Remake is great!

Won’t be perfect, but gyro-aiming for Time Crisis is pretty freaking cool.

John Wick and Marathon, neither really look interesting to me. Would love to get proven wrong on those.

Finally, we can play MGS4 on something other than PS3. I’m guessing this is a port, there’s no way they’re emulating PS3, right?

Star Wars Galactic Racer looks more like Burnout than the old Podracer game and I’m kind of here for it.

Wow, Rooster Fighter got a Dynasty Warriors spin-off before the show even came out.

This feels like an ominous cloud over all of Valve's current and upcoming hardware efforts.
Steam Deck OLED is all sold out in America store.steampowered.com/steamdeck

1080i/1080p is enough for most anime.
It's #weebwednesday once again, but today it's a little different - this time, quote with your most lukewarm, tepid takes, ones that will not get anyone mad at you ever (still no weird racist shit tho)

Finally got to the true ending in Hades II last night. Now I have to decide if I want to spend an extra month getting to the epilogue, like I did on the first game or do I try to move on to other games in my backlog. All before RE9 comes out at the end of the month! Too many games!

My biggest hope for Console Archives is that the Kenji Eno games make their way onto Switch, specifically D, Enemy Zero, D2 and a properly localized version of Real Sound: Kaze no Regret.

Wii's an interesting one from an emulation standpoint on Switch. The previous methods Super Mario Galaxy 1&2 (3D All Stars included) used a hybrid solution involving some emulation and native recompilation of game code. I imagine that NERD would want to move away from that and go with full emulation
just about lost it when someone posted this link to a "Nintendo Switch 2: Wii Remote" support article en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/topics/d...
looks like Nintendo's support article database is having a bad day as several pages are goofed

Kawamori and Suzuka!? How have I not heard of this movie before this?

So… none. Definitely got some good stuff, but so much of the Direct was stuff that’s already been announced. I think the titles I was most excited by were the Arcade/Console Archives, Bomberman, and FFVII. Seeing how well Indiana Jones is running was also cool.
Now that the Nintendo Partner Direct is official, my hopes:
1) Clair Obscur
2) Baldur’s Gate 3 (I know that it’s unlikely, maybe WotC or whoever changed their mind to let Larian do it)
3) Mass Effect Trilogy
4) Virtual Fighter 5 & 6
5) Dead Or Alive 30th Anniversary Collection
6) Rez: Infinite

I wish that so much of the direct wasn’t taken up by games we already knew were coming.
