The Wednesday letters page wants Sony to prioritise PS5 games over movies, as one reader is keen to see Pikmin 5 on the Switch 2. To join in with the discussions yourself email gamecentral@metro.co.uk. Undefined power. Even with leaks of the motherboard and some expert analysis I don’t feel we really know anything very definitive about the Switch 2’s power levels. So, it’s basically similar to a PlayStation 4, except publishers will probably end up porting PlayStation 5 games to it anyway? That doesn’t really lock anything down.

At the end of the day, all that matters is what the games look like and I’m already at the point where I barely recognise things like ray-tracing or 60fps, so I’m not sure it really matters. I think that’s always been Nintendo’s approach too and they’re probably only really trying at all in order to get more third party support. I agree we’ll probably see a lot of PlayStation 4 era ports, and probably tons of Xbox stuff, but I’m not sure that’s why anyone buys a Nintendo console.

At the end of the day, it sounds like it’s going to be a souped-up PlayStation 4 and that’s fine. There’s plenty of games being released now that barely look any better than a PlayStation 4 game and if the Switch 2 can run those as a handheld, then that is going to be very good thing.

Lemmy. Undead adaptation. It is really hard for me to understand what Sony is playing at the moment. The fact that they have so many movie and TV projects is one thing but why Gravity Rush and Days Gone, when they’re basically dead franchises? If you think these games are such a good idea, why don’t you make more of them?.
