GG, I'm sorry. Why the massive hike?

Seriously, That's insane. What percentage of a hike was that from last year?



It's because I claimed for when that lunatic threw a rock at the car. They replaced the car bonnet.

Last year it was $2000

I'd take a good look at your income and expenses GG.  My father in law was in a similar situation years ago, where he was very reliant on his car for his income.  When he finally quit the job he looked back and came to the conclusion that all those years he had been working mainly to pay the bills required for him to be able to do that job and whatever income was left was in fact pretty unimpressive.

Being self employed sucked. The government has these rules about the insurance cover I need so I can't even get 3rd party instead of comprehensive.

Switch 2 Cyberpunk official pics. Been wanting this game for years.


Also posted loads more videos and pics in the forum, in their respective threads.


DLSS really seems to be doing its job, the image quality is excellent. There are comparisons to Xbox series S, ps4 and PS5 for Streetfighter 6, Hogwarts Legacy and Cyberpunk, in the thread. As well as Mario kart 8 vs World.

I'm curious to see what games will support RT on Switch2.  Cyberpunk doesn't include it, but that's hardly a surprise.  Will it be relegated to fairly simple games, or will Nintendo's main Mario title feature it?

My money is on Nintendo utilizing it for their new Mario platformer.  They managed to include rim lighting in Galaxy, something that shouldn't have been possible on the hardware but played a big part in the visual makeup of that game.  Would be disappointing to see them dial down their ambition.

A Control port would use it definitely.

Well, no game uses Raytracing so far according to DF.

But I think Prime 4 is likely, the reflections were crazy good in the treehouse.

The rumors have said Switch may do ray reconstruction too. I think Cyberpunk is a candidate to use it. Whenever Nvidia show off DLSS and raytracing they usually use Cyberpunk footage.

Amazon rejected my invitation to pre-order Switch 2.

Think it was done in conjunction with the MyNintendostore which had these ridiculous requirements, you have to be a current Switch online member for the past two years. Among other bullshit.

Retail is dying here too so i don't have accounts with other stores and there are literally no other stores within an acceptable range of me.

I'm guessing the my Nintendo store will send my rejection email soon.

On game pricing Nintendo apparently said, Mario Kart World at $80 is a variable price and doesn't set a precedent for the price of Switch 2 games.

Looks like average games will be $70 or lower. SF6 is $60, DK is $70.

I just completed The Cub.

It's a cinematic platformer spin off from Golf Club Nostalgia, which is a much better game.

This game has amazing art and atmosphere but has sluggish controls, trial and error gameplay and huge difficulty spikes. Its still worth playing but only if you enjoy the world Golf Club Nostalgia created.

Otherwise it's a pain in the f×××ing ass and I never want to play that again.
