dbrand Killswitch 2 Case review
Posted on 1 month ago by Ethan in Reviews, Switch 2 | 0 comments
For such a popular console, it’s been surprisingly difficult to find the perfect grip case for the Nintendo Switch 2. We’ve reviewed the Savage Raven NeoGrip, the Savage Raven StandGrip, the JSAUX Split Protective Case, and the Genki Attack Vector so far. dbrand’s Killswitch 2 had some problems when it launched earlier this year – namely, the Joy-Con would often fall off and disconnect from the Nintendo Switch 2 unit entirely during normal gameplay (or if you held the console with one hand, which is a pretty common thing to do).
We’ve now just received the dbrand Killswitch 2 travel case with updated Joy-Lock grips. This new updated design promises to fix the Killswitch 2’s previous attachment issues. Now that customers are finally getting their revised units, is this the best Switch 2 case on the market? It’s certainly the most expensive one, costing around $60 for the essential kit and around $80 for the travel kit.
Dormant franchises Nintendo could bring back on Switch 2
Posted on 1 month ago by Ethan in Features, Switch 2 | 0 comments
By now, there are a few dormant Nintendo franchises that are kind of infamous because they haven’t had a new game in many years. That said, it’s not like Nintendo never takes risks with smaller games – Clubhouse Games, New Pokemon Snap, Big Brain Academy, Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp, and especially Emio – The Smiling Man are all great examples of the Big N bringing back dormant franchises in recent years. You could argue New Pokemon Snap isn’t a dormant franchise, and that’s sort of true – the point is, Nintendo is known to take risks with some of its smaller IP. It’s just that those risks usually do not include the IP that some fans want to see.
So today, we’re going over some franchises we could see Nintendo bring back on Switch 2. For the console’s first year or so, we do expect the company to focus primarily on heavy hitters. As time passes, though, we’ll most certainly start seeing some smaller titles based on long-inactive IP after a while. Nintendo commented on rising development costs a little while back, stating that they can make appealing titles even if they have a short development period.

Nintendo files two lawsuits against individuals connected to Switch piracy
Posted on 1 month ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
July 1, 2024: Nintendo recently filed a pair of lawsuits against individuals who the company believes facilitated piracy on Switch. Torrent Freak reported on the findings.
In the first lawsuit, Modded Hardware is accused of violating the DMCA by selling mod chips and MIG devices. Modded consoles with pirated games were apparently shipped as well. While Nintendo originally reached out to owner Ryan Daly with a lawsuit threat and it was agreed that unlawful activity would cease, Modded Hardware continued on. Daly eventually said he was looking for a new lawyer, but Nintendo wouldn’t wait any further and filed a proper lawsuit.
