Review code delivered on launch day is never a good look, but this week's Direct kicks off with Rich's positive words for Days Gone Remastered with very, very early impressions of the PS5 Pro version of the game. Meanwhile, the team compares notes on Sucker Punch's latest Ghost of Yōtei trailer, while a returning John makes his feelings abundantly clear about Nintendo's Game Key card initiative. Sticking with Switch 2, the varying pricing level for Switch 2 Editions causes some concerns, while the release of Sony's PS5 Pro teardown arrives in lock-step with the arrival of Rich's Pro motherboard. And finally, just who gets to decide who guests on each episode of DF Direct Weekly?

John mentioned Nintendo's track record with keeping store servers up not being great but you can still download games you bought on the Wii 20 years ago no problem? You can't make new purchases, sure, but even up to today you can still redownload anything you have purchased just fine. I wouldn't be too worried about the store-staying-up aspect of the Game Key Cards. A few decades is about what one can expect out of a normal physical Switch game card (or really any modern physical media) anyway.
