So the metro ports are very good then.

Good games as well if you have never played them. Makes you wonder if they could get exodus working on the switch.

 

The guy talking there said "vulf-en-schhtine two". Nobody calls it that.

Assume that was Alex, a German dude?

Or it might be Linneman who I think lives in Germany.

You don't pronounce "stein" as "schtein" do you? It's a different phoneme at the start.

Even in Wolfenstein they pronounce it wolf-en-styn.

[Calashnikov]

It’s the legendary Richard Leadbetter John Linneman ripping the cunt out of German Alex’s pronunciation of ‘Wolfenstein’ which has become become a low-key DF meme. This is the geekiest knowledge that I have attained in a lifetime of it. 
 

EDIT: Corrected ‘Richard Leadbetter’ as Big John, although not because either is non-legendary. Quite the opposite. When I read the Wolfenstein pronunciation posts I assumed it was discussion about a Rich vid from a couple of weeks back, where he hit out with the same pronunciation. The fact this is actually a new vid and it’s John ripping the cunt this time confirms DF meme status. Fucksake.

Get with it mate. How can you have no idea who is or isn’t John ‘Legendary’ Linneman Alex the German cunt from DF? Ubergeek-serial-Rllmuk-poster status revoked plz

Hey, wait a second. I thought they'd bring Metro Exodus to Switch?? Is it really just the Redux remasters? 

[Super Craig]

Just Redux.

Is this picture trying to demonstrate where you would actually need the analogue and buttons in order to use the controllers like this?

[joffocakes]

We play Mario Kart 8 like that all the time! We use the little rails for the shoulder buttons though.

[makkuwata]

They're like 10cm long, reaching the buttons is not the issue.

 

The issue is that they're 10cm long.

I've literally just been searching 'XCOM style games on Switch'. Isn't 2 the massively stressful time-limited one?

[Dudley]

It’s the one where they removed the difficulty levels for humans just before release yes.

[HarryBizzle]

I find turn based games like that incredibly stressful anyway, just because if I lose or whatever, starting the battle all over again is such a pain. The time limit in XCOM2 is just masochistic.

Is there a known shortage of Fat Switch consoles at the moment? Possibly due to shipping issues out of China?

 

Was looking for a V2 model but they seem to be pretty rare at the mo. Those available have had their prices hiked.

The UK has been short for the last couple of weeks, but things are expected to get worse worldwide going forwards due to the Coronavirus.

Thought so. There could well be problems for months if that’s the case.

Valkyria Chronicles 1&4 are on Switch. Both are excellent.

Theres that Mutant Year Zero, not played it though, and obviously Mario Rabbids.

 

Re: XCOM2, I didn't have problems with the default difficulty but it struggled to run on PS4 so I hope they've pared back the switch version.
