Surely this is impossible on the Switch 2?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Monday letters page looks forward to Star Wars<\/a> Zero Company, as one reader explains why they\u2019ve cancelled their Nintendo Switch 2<\/a> pre-order.<\/p>\n

The grail<\/strong>
I\u2019m seeing rumours about
Assassin\u2019s Creed Shadows coming to Nintendo Switch 2<\/a> and I wouldn\u2019t be surprised. Or at least I wouldn\u2019t be surprised that Ubisoft<\/a> is trying but I would be shocked if it looked anywhere near as good, because Shadows is lowkey one of the best-looking games of recent years.<\/p>\n

Cyberpunk 2077 is no slouch either and we\u2019ve already had hands-on reports<\/a> for that. My question is just how far can it go? What\u2019s the most graphically impressive game the Switch 2 could manage? If it\u2019s as powerful as a PlayStation 4 does that mean we could get a game that looks as good as Horizon Forbidden West or God Of War Ragnar\u00f6k \u2013 both of which are cross-gen?<\/p>\n

If that\u2019s possible then what about the holy grail of GTA 6? I know the trailer looked impossible even on a PlayStation 5 but as people are keen to point out, Rockstar and Nintendo do get on pretty well and I\u2019m sure that when the game started development it was aiming for the PlayStation 4 – so perhaps there\u2019s a way to get it working on Switch 2 using those early experiments.

Worldwide problem<\/strong>
I\u2019m sure Americans are happy the
Switch 2 isn\u2019t getting a price increase<\/a> but why do I get the feeling that the money Nintendo is losing on that is going to be passed onto the rest of the fans around the world. There\u2019s no reason we should suffer but I bet we do.<\/p>\n

After all this wait, it\u2019s very unfortunate timing for Nintendo and I do feel sorry for them to a degree. Their refusal to announce a lot of the UK prices is very suspicious though and I fear that whatever thy were going to be they\u2019re now going to get a price hike. Likewise. those games that have no price anywhere, like Hyrule Warriors, I worry are going to be more than was originally intended.

Old problem<\/strong>
I don\u2019t know what to think of that
Star Wars Outlaws trailer for the Switch 2<\/a>. It definitely doesn\u2019t look as good as the PlayStation 5 version, but it still looks okay, about as good as you\u2019d expect I suppose? There\u2019s not really anything to compare it to at the moment, so it\u2019s hard to know whether to be disappointed or impressed. I think probably I\u2019m just neutral about it though.<\/p>\n

The obvious problem is what are Ubisoft going to charge for it? The PlayStation 5 version is officially \u00a370 but it\u2019s been on cheap almost since it came out. If Ubisoft were sensible they\u2019d make it so it\u2019s only \u00a350 or so but I can\u2019t see that. So who wants an inferior version of a year old game that costs more? It\u2019s the same old problem of any third party game on a Nintendo console.

Andor: The Video Game<\/strong>
I share GC\u2019s enthusiasm for
Star Wars Zero Company<\/a> and I\u2019m a lot more interested now that it seems like it will have permadeath and some sort of meta strategy element, which they didn\u2019t make clear in the trailer.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not sure even Star Wars can help make these games a hit but I\u2019m glad they\u2019re at least trying, because I love XCOM and almost anything else similar to it.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not sure I really get the Clone Wars setting though, as that seems a bit limiting, given how little danger battle droids are in small numbers. I would\u2019ve thought that the getting a crew together for covert ops thing would\u2019ve been better for something set closer to the original trilogy too – especially if it leaned into the style of Andor.<\/p>\n

Not that I\u2019m going to complain though, any big budget new turn-based strategy is good by me.

Budget birthday<\/strong>
I know the Inbox likes to celebrate non-significant anniversaries, so I\u2019d just thought I\u2019d point out that Fire Emblem was 35 on Sunday. I\u2019m sure none of us played it back then, because it was Japanese-only for a long time, but it\u2019s a neat bit of trivia.<\/p>\n

The obvious question is how long will it be before a new game is announced for the Switch 2? Not long, I imagine, but I\u2019m curious to see what it is. Three Houses did unexpectedly well but it was very low budget, then Nintendo followed that up with Engage\u2026 which looked even cheaper. I get that turn-based games don\u2019t usually get a lot of money spent on them, but I\u2019d like to see at least one attempt with Fire Emblem. It was always one of the best looking 3DS games.
