The Switch 2 launch felt oddly rushed.

Lack of details, initial backward compatibility list having only ~20% of games with basic testing finished, the need for SD Express cards that are hard to find. Even the GCK situation is probably due to cost/availability issues that will improve over time.

This DevKit situation looks to me like another example of this.

Finished three games:

• ATRI: My Dear Moments
• We Love Katamari Reroll+Royal Reverie
• Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition

Will be posting more details on !nintendo@lemmy.world’s next “What are you playing this weekend?” thread tomorrow, but I enjoyed and recommend all three games.

Started playing two more today:

• Witch on the Holy Night
• Guacamelee! 2

First impressions are good but it’s too early to recommend either of these.

Like others said, it’s not just Gen-Z.

Funny enough, the main reason I’m spending far less is not the shitty economy, but rather the gaming industry’s push to kill physical copies.

I used to buy a lot of physical games at full price because they would be much harder to find later on, but if I’m forced to go with a digital copy this is no longer an issue, so I just let them sit on my wishlist until they’re massively discounted.

1. Persona 4
2. Ar Tonelico 2
3. Xenoblade Chronicles 2

Honerable mention to Warcraft 3 TFT.
