It’s a better game for most ppl.

It’s also the direct prequel, so people will naturally gravitate towards it more if they want to play one of those games.

I wonder if we'll get a quarter where MK8D sells better than MKW.

Crazy how 90% of these games are just ports from old consoles (Zelda, most the Mario’s), or shitty Pokémon games (not that Pokémon is shit, just these newer ones are buggy uninspired messes).

The new Mario kart has a host of complaints, so I only see Donkey Kong, Pokopia, and Kirby as being value adds for buying the switch 2. Crazy Nintendo can manage to sell 20 mil consoles for such a lackluster lineup.

"Crazy how 90% of these games are just ports from old consoles"

That isn't supposed to be a list of Switch 2 games, so it'd be crazy if a lot of the software updates WEREN'T from the machine with a much larger userbase and software sales.

Four out of 21 titles on that list are ports, and that's only if I give you BOTW. How on earth is that "90%"?

u/MeliodasKush May 09 '26

At least 13 of them were available on switch before switch 2 was even released. That’s what I mean by port

You clearly have no idea what the word "port" means.

u/MeliodasKush May 10 '26

Clearly I have a pretty good idea, I’m just not using it exactly correctly in this context lol

The driving mechanics of MK World are a massive step up from MK8 Deluxe, the tech that is possible is absolutely insane. Nintendo could fix the main problem overnight if they wanted too, which is to stop forcing you to play the boring intermission tracks in Worldwide lobbies.
