Did they change it on Playstation, last I checked on PS5 it was in the "annoying to try to twist your arm" category. Instead of just being able to move them to usb like you can with ps4 stuff, you have to do a system backup and select only saves. All or nothing, can't restore/backup only certain saves.

+1 Mario Kart / Metroid Prime plus updated versions of Mario party Jamboree and Zelda TOTK has me sold. Will grab it at launch with a pro controller!
Third party support is also looking really solid which is never a given for recent Nintendo systems.
Love that they’re adding upscaled GameCube titles to the virtual console as well.

As you said, you have to do the system backup route. I guess to not backup saves you don't want, you'd have to manually delete the unwanted saves from the console before starting the backup process.

Oh yeah Metroid I am all over that as well!
It's making the PS5 Pro look reasonableJust been on the website and didn’t realise how fierce the pricing of the games/accessories is looking!
Mario kart £75
Donkey Kong £67
Pro controller £75
Camera £50
My plan is to wait for reviews of Duskbloods in 2026. Unless they magically bring back the 1080 series (gate mode in avalanche is fantastic).
I'm in no rush - I have an og switch with dark souls, mh rise, 2 zelda games and daemon x machina and also have a steamdeck oled so my mobile gaming needs are covered.

Actually a worthwhile upgrade too lol
I'm confused too. I now know of several friends who received emails for a pre-order invite from Nintendo ... all at 6pm this evening. Most of them have less hours played than me, have participated in fewer surveys etc. All of us have had an online subscription for just over 5 years. Yet I'm the only one who hasn't received an invite yet. Go figure.

Planning to go all digital with the Switch 2 ?
Games look fun.
That's one problem I have with the series x Microsoft have lost the plot with what they are doing, all new releases are decidedly dire, my boy is fed up with a lack of game releases that he can play (he's 8, most games seem to be 16+, I will let him play some of these like halo but I decide on a game by game basis)
So based on the above looks like he be getting a switch 2 for Xmas. But price of games are ... Wow.
That's only + point with Xbox at the moment is the game pass though running out of games

Does it really? Looks like it's running of Mario Odyssey engine. Just smashing at every opportunity. Doesn't scream amazing or anything.
Not here it won't, but in the US it could go up 20% or more.
For console, grabbing a PS5 might be a better pick for him then. Yes, there are still a lot of mature/adult themed games, but when you include the PS4 library and the fact that most, if not all, future Xbox games will be coming to the platform too, then that's a large selection to choose from. More importantly, with Playstation ( and Xbox ) waiting 6 months or more can see big discounts on games. That never happens with Nintendo 1st party games. For example, take Hogwarts Legacy - great game for kids or teenagers, will probably cost £70-80 on Switch 2, but you can grab it for less than £20 on sale at the Playstation store ( or even cheaper on PC / Steam Deck ).
IMO it does yeah. It looks like it’s made from the same people that made odyssey, but that can only be a good thing as that’s the one of the best games on the switch.
