Alright, let’s dive into this with a big ol’ messy spoon. So, there’s this game, Bravely Default—ha, yeah, the name kinda sounds like a legal term or something—that I’m all jazzed to try on the Switch 2. Funny thing is, it’s not even a new game; it was hanging out on the 3DS back in 2012. But before you side-eye that, hear me out. This isn’t about the Switch 2’s lineup being meh; it’s about Bravely Default being like a good soup—gets better with time. Or maybe wine? Not that I drink, but you get the idea.
Now, why is this oldie a goodie? Well, back when it first hit the States in 2014, Pure Nintendo was all over it, tossing a 10/10 rating like confetti at a New Year’s bash. This guy, Thomas Jones, or Tom for short—no idea why that matters—was totally gushing over it. Said it mixed old-school Final Fantasy vibes with neat new spins. Imagine culinary fireworks, or like a remix that actually works, ya know? Colorful characters, rad visuals, and gameplay that’ll keep you hooked tighter than a cat on a curtain.
But, oh boy, when the 3DS eShop took a dive, replaying it became a bit like trying to find matching socks in the dark. Throw in some StreetPass nonsense—who even remembers that?—and it got messy. Well, the remaster is dropping those hiccups faster than a hot potato and throwing in fresh mini-games. They even have quirky names like Luxencheer Rhythm Catch, which sounds like something I’d dream about after too much coffee. And mouse control with the Joy-Con? What’s that even mean?
Right, almost forgot—remastered graphics. They’re scrapping the 3D bottle, but you know, maybe these new visuals will be like that homemade pie your neighbor brought over, even if it’s not grandma’s recipe, but it’s still pretty darn good.
Oh, and can’t skip past the job-based battle system. It’s got costumes, people. Someone shout out cosplay because that’s where my head goes.
So, if you missed out the first time or just wanna loop back for a nostalgia trip, the Switch 2’s tossing you a lifeline. Whip out those wallets; digital pre-orders are at the ready—$39.99 if you’re counting coins. June 5th is the magic date. I’ll be there, probably tripping over my own excitement.
Check Square-Enix’s site for more if you’re curious. Or get caught up in the whirlwind. Whichever floats your boat.
