If they want to stay in the game changes need to be made. Maybe make a tighter time limit of having games free on Gamepass. Maybe have timed exclusives to the Xbox on event games. Get people to care about the console again.

In my personal opinion is that Microsoft’s model for the Xbox has come to a head. While Gamepass is great for gamers, MS is not selling games for their console. Case in point is they brag about users but you never see sales of Xbox first party games.

Donkey Kong Bananza Direct 6.18.2025 YouTube video by Nintendo of America

Donkey Kong Bananza. Let’s get into this. Was never really a big fan of the DK Country games but I think Bananza looks really good. Gives off Super Mario Odyssey vibes, which is actually my favorite Switch game. Possible GOTY contender.

So when it goes to YouTubers like Rich here you have to take his word at face value. Everything he is pushing is just for content. He doesn’t talk about how everyone else has the same issues.

Then there is the MIG switch issue. First Nintendo told you what they were going to do. And again everyone else does it, even steam. And with steam it’s worse because you lose everything because you have no physical copy.

Now another issue he brings up. The stick drift. This is not just an Nintendo issue. The PS5 and Xbox controllers have the same issue. And as a precaution Nintendo said they would replace the joy-cons. So this class action talk can go out the door.

So let’s get into this. Well let’s start with battery swelling. That can be a user issue because it could be over charged which is usually what is the problem. The switch 2 has setting to prevent that. Also overheating which can occur from using it a lot. It’s not uncommon at all

So Sony’s State of Play happened today. Let’s be honest, it was nothing. Nothing on The Wolverine or a Bloodborne remake which lets going to admit will probably not happen. A lot of the games aren’t going to be exclusive to PlayStation and can get on PC. Then we are going to get a fighting stick.

With the Xbox Games Showcase coming up, the question has to be asked. Does it really matter? Microsoft’s biggest success in gaming, Gamepass has unequivocally been also one of its issues as people don’t buy games to speak of on the Xbox. The play them on Gamepass where they pay for the subscription

Walmart cancelling Switch 2 preorders? Is it true? Maybe. Maybe not. Reports of Reddit users having their preorders cancelled and the clickbait news sites are eating up. Seems like payment issues. To me the safest bet is check your orders and if you get a tracking number then you are good to go

Reports of people receiving their Nintendo Switch 2 already. Now they are not useable until the official launch of the Switch 2 as the Day One patch is not available yet
