Still the top selling Zeldas ever, right? I could've sworn TotK eold nearly 20 million copies like a year after release, so feels weird to see it at just 22 million sold.

I wonder what Nintendo will take away from those BotW and TotK sales.  TotK sold 66% of the numbers BotW managed.  

I think because it's seen to be like a part 2 of BOTW.

A "new" Zelda world would be more attractive.

Yes, we can do Termina with BotW gameplay.

So is no one annoyed that you cant play 2D games requiring accuracy, on Switch 2 handheld mode as there's no dpad option?

I had the Hori joycon but cant use it on switch 2 because it was never wireless.

Now there are NQWI and Mobapad split joycon controllers coming. They're around £80 so about the price of the pro controller? Except you can use them for TV and handheld play.

No. I mostly play early 80s arcade games in portable mode; they work better with joycon since most were 4-way directional games.

It still has like 4 years to make up that number though.

Metroid Prime 4 not making the million seller list... not sure what happens to this franchise.

Pragmata and RE9 had switch had switch 2 builds playable recently. There were a lot of video previews saying they were great and 60fps most of the time.

Pragmata isn't my idea of a good time. Doing a puzzle in real time while shooting seems annoying.

Switch 2 release dates for Indiana Jones and Fallout 4 leak online ahead of today’s Nintendo Direct

Reporter billbil-kun, who has a strong track record of publishing release date information ahead of official announcements, has claimed that both games are coming soon.

The physical edition of Indiana Jones and The Great Circle will reportedly be released on May 12, 2026, while the physical edition of Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition will reportedly be released on April 28.

According to billbil-kun, the digital release dates for both games is less clear, though they believe that Indiana Jones will still release digitally on May 12, while Fallout 4’s digital release on Switch 2 could even come today as a surprise ‘shadow drop’.
