Oh man... Has anyone checked out the Nintendo Switch 2 The Legend of Zelda 40th Anniversary Edition styled console?  Honestly... this might be the best looking console I've seen in a very long time.

I believe they're playing fast and loose with the numbers. Sure, if you count every dlc, every homebrew / micro publisher's game someone picked up for a few bucks in the store that don't get any sort of digital distribution - sure. I'm sure there's 10 plus of those types of games to every 1 physical release.

This Tom's Hardware title is pretty telling --> Sony threatens to cut off customer support and pursue legal action over harassment as backlash to PlayStation's physical-disc phaseout intensifies — company to move forward with no disc decision despite several lawsuits. 

It sounds like things are getting a bit crazy in Japan.  Sony is implementing a new Customer Harassment policy.  There are class action lawsuits in progress amongst other things.  Per the article:
QuoteSeveral other related lawsuits are ongoing. Regardless, Sony has said it will "cautiously move forward" with its decision despite "strong views" from players.

Sony post on CDG that deal with this topic:

I can't blame people for reacting...  though it needs to be done in a safe manner.  However, pretty interesting that people are revolting... it makes me wonder if the stats in another video posted by @retro junkie on this site are correct in terms of only 20-30% being physical sales.  @targetrasp was a bit surprised by that as well.  I don't feel the reaction would be as great unless that 20-30% care DEEPLY on this topic.  Maybe that's not a correct take.

Has anyone picked up any of the Virtual Boy Accessories for the Nintendo Switch 2?

Nintendo offers 2 accessories:
1. The $100 Full Virtual Boy replica Headset:

2. The $25 Cardboard headset:

I thought the cardboard headset was ridiculous... However, the word out that it is decent.  I know @MegaDrive20XX has dabbled with the Virtual Boy Games and would love to hear his opinion!

There are 2 other games that were released for the Virtual Boy on the Switch 2 that have not been released before.  I am going to create topics on those.  How cool is it that Nintendo is releasing these titles for such an old system... quite amazing.

Not going to sugar coat it... I'm super excited for this collection.  Super Bomberman on the Super Nintendo was such an awesome experience.  The Super tap allowed for 4 player action... and for friends coming over, this was just an intense and awesome fun time to play on the Super Nintendo.  I put a lot of time into Super Bomberman with friends.  I didn't put as much into Super Bomberman 2 at the time... but I'd love to go back and play them all including the NES versions

Dude... that authentic difficulty...

If others haven't checked out the post, we 100% completed Sniper 4.  That was a crazy feat.  Sniper Elite 4 is simply not a simple game to 100%.  We are also doing the same thing for Sniper Elite 5 right now... and the authentic difficulty in Sniper Elite 5 is unforgiving.  It is MORE unforgiving (in my opinion) than Sniper Elite 4 AND probably most other Video games save titles like Dark Souls.   @SpartanEvolved can tell you all about that lol  :))
