Recently picked up the Switch 2 + Pro Controller 2, so far been a worthwhile upgrade.

 

Pokémon Scarlet & Violet play much nicer (free res upgrade).
Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom looks and plays nice with the upgrade pack ($16 CAD after tax though...)
Mario Kart World is okay... the powerups feel dull though, they feel a little "light" when shells hit...

Found out the old Switch accessories are compatible too so now I technically have 5 controllers lol.

I've mostly just been playing Pokémon Scarlet and Legends Arceus since I got it though. 

FC if anyone wants to game SW-2858-6203-7796 - FusionOpz

If you have Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack you don't have to pay for the Zelda upgrade packs.

Yea the powerups in Mario Kart feel light and give drivers better recovery because it would be hell with up to 24 players spamming items. People are complaining that most of the online races are the open world drives to the next track instead of the lap type races but to me its feels like some of the lap type tracks are very small. Mario Kart Circuit is a combination of Mario Kart Circuits 1, 2 and 3 from the SNES version and it's not a lap type course and can be done a little over a minute in time trials so add 15-30 secs for online play.

I'm waiting for Metroid Prime while playing Donkey Kong.

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By Legend20 · Posted

      You are clueless. The updates are done in the background so the next time you open Edge the updates are applied automatically. There is no need to close all your tabs. Just keep browsing like you normally do. Clearly you don't use Edge and are just one of those haters that complain for the sake of complaining.

    • Windows Server gets DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support

      By Legend20 · Posted

      Microsoft is busy. Lots of changes to be released imminently for Windows server or soon. Also, lots happening for next version as well. Third party virus scanning software is being moved out of Kernel mode to avoid repeat of Crowdstrike incident. Windows Protected Mode and Windows Ready Print no longer require third party print drivers to be installed. New storage stack being developed. New NVME drivers now available for Windows Server 2025 to improve local NVME drive performance by 60+ percent. NVME-Of of fabric being worked on for next release to improve network access to NVME drives. ReFs (next file system) now has ability to boot and will become default file system in next release of Windows Server. ReFs improves on NTFS in several areas including resiliency and reliability and scalability. New update stack is being worked on to unify Windows updates, and updates for drivers and first party/3rd party application software. A stricter and more robust third-party driver certification program (ODI) is being worked on to improve performance, thermals, battery life, and reliability on modern Windows hardware by tightening how OEMs and IHVs (Intel, AMD, Qualcomm, NVIDIA, etc.) build and ship drivers. There is a tone more but too numerous to mention.
    • Windows 11 gets better widgets, new Screen Tint feature, and more in the latest build

      Now disable that stupid OneDrive backup request when Windows starts please. So unbelievably frustrating to only have “remind me later” instead of “no and never ask me again”
