    The Virtual Console jump between Wii to Wii U did have an optional (reduced) fee to upgrade to the new features but (almost) all your VC games could be transferred over and accessed through the Wii Mode on the U for free. Switch doesn't have a proper VC currently- the NES games are a feature of the online service, so they're more like a bonus (as I don't think anyone is subscribing to NSO just to get the NES games- they mainly just want the online multiplayer).

    I know the PS Vita underperformed, but I'd love it if the PS5 had the option to be handheld like the Switch

    Yeah the digital library of PS4 had better transfer to PS5.

    How does one brighten up the screen on PS4? I don’t remember my old one being this dark. I thought it was just HBO’s GoT being filmed dark(I could barely see a thing in night scenes) but I now see its everything and changing my tv settings doesn’t help.

    If there is a way to adjust brightness, it would have to be in the video output settings, but I doubt there is.

    I've had no issues with the brightness on mine, so it might be your TV. What size/brand is your TV?

    Philips 65in 4K. My original PS4 prelightning strike was just fine as is my Switch and XB but this new(used) PS4 just has really toned down brightness.

    You use the PS4 for streaming channels? How is that?

    Well I used to but I used to be able to see the majority of the screen. Have Showtime, HBO and Netflix set up on it. Shame I only have access to Netflix on XB. I wish they would have stuff on it.

    My original PS was just fine on screen...

    I played the Detroit demo and thought it was pretty neat. Wasn't really going to pay retail for it, but you can't beat free.

    It’s never truly free with David Cage. Even watching mocking LPs cost a small fragment of my soul.

    I just have a backlog of PS Plus freebie games in my library that have yet to even be downloaded. I figure why bother downloading them if I know I won't play them anytime soon. I did get Sonic Mania last month and downloaded it, but haven't played that either.

    I already own Detroit (though I haven't played it yet), but I'm very glad they did this. Nothing against PES, but Detroit is a much better give away for most people. Most people who want PES already have it.

    What if I want to finish the quadrilogy of pain?

    It's okay, you can have things against PES. Nobody likes it. It's published by Konami for one thing.

    Detroit is a much better version of self flagellation.
