Not having microSD isn’t a trend I like, since expandable storage with less reliance on cloud services and not being upcharged to move up a tier on internal storage is ideal. It is sad to see it is mostly dead over the years.

But, one good thing I do look forward to is the EU requiring user-replaceable batteries by 2027 that will hopefully make replacing batteries much easier than it is now. I miss the days when batteries could be popped out and swapped on the spot.

Nintendo game prices seem too expensive not only to PC gamers, but Xbox and Sony gamers too. All the other platforms reward patient gamers with price drops even for first party titles, but for Nintendo sometimes they go up.

From the perspective of someone who’s had Sony consoles spanning generations that is terrible pricing. I only picked up a switch because it was a handheld, but it isn’t a selling point to me this time around due to the Steam Deck playing the same library of games I have on the PC.

Nintendo diehards will stick with it and it’ll sell great, but I’ll be going back to skipping Nintendo consoles for the foreseeable future.
