Finished chapter 11 of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition

Chapter 11 story spoilerThey tried to redeem him! I knew they would! He killed last of the species, this is the super-villain stuff. Maybe I am too old for these things...

Played more Marvel's Midnight Suns and Ghost of Tsushima, but nothing new to add about either of them.

Also, just got my switch 2, so will be trying out Mario Kart World over the weekend.

What about all of you? What have you been playing and/or plan to play?

We already guessed it was the same team because the game looked very polished and the UI is identical but it's nice to get confirmation.

On the bad side, this sort of confirms that we're not getting a new 3D mario any time soon which is disappointng.

Nintendo Co. pulled its products from Amazon.com Inc.’s US site after a disagreement over unauthorized sales, meaning the e-commerce company missed out on the recent debut of Nintendo’s Switch 2 — the biggest game console launch of all time.

The Japanese company stopped selling on Amazon after noticing that third-party merchants were offering games for sale in the US at prices that undercut Nintendo’s advertised rates, according to a person familiar with the situation. Enterprising sellers were buying Nintendo products in bulk in Southeast Asia and exporting them to the US, said the person, who requested anonymity to discuss confidential information.

Eshop code from Amazon Japan is quite cheap compared to buying locally.

I think the process for this would be moving my account over to Japan, which would also move his, redeeming the eshop code on his account , then switching region back to our local one.

Have I understood that correctly?
