On one hand fuck Nintendo. On the other hand, it's funny to watch autistic Smashfags seethe.

According to this it seems like a combination of licensing issues, Nintendo being "hush-hush" about what was going on in their end, and this Panda group that Nintendo was apparently partnered with doing behind-the-scenes damage and trying to outright kill Smash World Tour dead for good.

My suspicion is that Nintendo wanted to play nice with SWT but Panda wasn't going to take no for an answer. I hope the community and especially competitors run Panda through the mud for this, fuck those guys.

I'm not happy for the community (maybe a bit) but VGBC are disgusting too. So either way this is a W because Panda (and ESAM, hopefully) have been shown to be utter assholes but VGBC also got clocked. Hope they are all dragged.

I'm surprised that Nintendo gathered the game database from all regions so it could figure out this time I've been playing imports again

It did for mine too, after I moved in Feb, all my game data is for imports as well.

Except Xenoblade 3 which registered as Western because I played the English version on the cart. Only 187 hours!

Games like Xenoblade 3 and Nier Automata are multi-regional meaning the SKU remains the same for Europe/America/Japan, so it doesn't matter which language and copy you're playing on. But there are many japanese games (anything published by Atlus, Nippon Ichi Software, Koei-Tecmo, Bamco for instance) that have separate SKUs between the West and Japan, with different language supports. I'd rather pay a higher base price for the text in moonrunes, with the JP version, than ever dealing with localizations.

A bit disappointed there wasn't a graph for the amount of hours in handheld/docked use like last year, just for curiosity's sake.

I also think it's weird to review the 2022 year right now before reaching the new year, as it cuts my playtime with the Yomawari games and Samurai Maiden. And I wouldn't be surprised if I will generate +30 hours in December alone in EDF 4.1 once it comes out on Switch next week.

Interesting, I didn't know that about the SKUs. For example. I have a Japanese copy of Torna which I bought because it was fairly cheap (before it started getting reprinted everywhere this year) and Korean versions of Dragon Quest XI and Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3. They all have English, but I'm curious if they count as the same or different SKUs.

And you're right, it is weird to do it this early. I don't see any December games for my Switch recap at all (though I've been playing more PS4 lately).
 
I've never played breath of the wild. Suppose I get it next month, do you reckon I'll be able to finish it by the time the new one comes out? Sorry if it's a retarded question, I've heard the game is a real time sink, and I'm debating if I should play it or just hold out for the sequel.

If you get it in January can you finish it by May?

Yes, totally possible.

Dunno about Torna itself, but Xenoblade 2 has only asian languages for the japanese version while the western version has no moonrunes (unlike Xeno 1 DE & Xeno 3) so SKUs are different. Dragon Quest 11 S in Japan has JP text that isn't available in the West, and there is a drama voice mode (filler & AU stories narrated by voice actors) exclusive for that version too.

I played exclusively on the bing bing wahoo machine for this whole 2022 year, roughly clocked over 700 hours. The sole times I bothered with PC gaming was for a campaign mod of EDF5 and Iron Rain.

I should get back into Xenoblade 3 but I'm waiting for the entire expansion pass to release beforehand.

It took me somewhere around 45 or 50 hours to finish the game (bought the game on last Christmas and finished in January), exploring a bit, and doing enough shrines to obtain the Master Sword before confronting the final boss. It depends how much you want to discover things but you should have enough headroom before the sequel comes out.

the game can be beaten once you exit the tutorial(and sooner if you know how) so it's only as long as you want it to be IF you can beat the almost impossible boss only an hour in.

Probably the perfect time to get it, actually.

This Year in Review they gave us was weak compared to the years they gave us shit like "what game you played most in X month" and "percent of handheld vs. docked." My categories were pretty much all just Animal Crossing, MonHun GU, and XC 3 from my spouse using my account.
I spent 80 hours in Sophie 2 and it was my GoTY so I kinda expected to see it. =/
