Oh goodness. Now they're making a Nia (Xenoblade 2) 1/7 scale figure and an Ike (Fire Emblem) 1/7 scale figure?
It's like they've discovered my kryptonite and are using it mercilessly.
I don't buy non-amiibo figures... except for Monster Hunter, Fire Emblem and Xenoblade. And, they're just pumping them out. Wasn't Pyra and Mythra enough? Nope. Had to add KOS-MOS. Thought for sure that would be the end of it, but nope. Then they announced Melia from the first game. Now it's Nia from XC2, and they haven't even put Melia up for pre-order yet!
Fire Emblem had Tharja and Cordelia from FE Awakening, then Camilla from Fates, then they announced Lyn from FE7 on GBA, and pre-orders aren't even expired yet and they've already announced Ike.
What makes it feel worse is that I just ordered like 7 of the Monster Hunter creator models in my flurry of Rise hype.

@gcunit Before 3D All Stars the previous systems I played Mario 64 on were Wii and Wii U via VC. Switch pro controller is pretty much a heavier Wii U pro controller with gyro.
@gcunit
I would like to see the differences between Mario and other characters, like Mario is great in sneaking and shooting, Luigi is good in running and stealing, Wario is the Brawn, Toad is the Brain /Hacker, etc. Assuming Mario goes Sly Cooper and have to infiltrate Bowser's secret hideout, it would be funny to see Mario have to hide in cardbox or silent kill the Goombas / Koopas from behind with gadgets or avoiding the lasers through the paths, etc.
And the enemies should be brand new with their criminal records that motivated them to commit in crimes. And for the plot twist, Bowser wasn't really the real culprit at all, it was the new enemy behind all of the trouble. What do you think ?
@Slowdive Did they elaborate on the "something promising" or just leave it vague? I've had the vibe that something was going happen, mostly based on all the weird limited time anniversary stuff.
Ugh I gotta put in for the Lyndis statue and I know I’m getting the Sakunahime nendoroid. Sigh. I hate being poor.

I wonder, if Sony bought Square Enix would the Bravely games and Octopath be able to be released on PS5?
It feels like Microsoft buying Bethesda will start another console war and Square Enix is the most Sony 3rd party. Hoping that the purchase is rejected.
I'll join in too. Here's how I rank the 3D Mario games:
1) Galaxy
2) Galaxy 2
3) Odyssey
4) 3D World
5) Sunshine
6) 64
7) 3D Land
8) 64 DS
They were a little hard to rank, admittedly. And who knows, I might change my rankings later on. With that said, though, the top 4 are the games that I REALLY like.
I'm still wondering when Nintendo will debut the mythical 64 GB game cards. What if.... what if Nintendo's proprietary cards are still so damn expensive to produce that game companies continue to skip them and only offer digital.
@WoomyNNYes
There is always going to be a market for physical games. Physical releases that require partial downloads to even enjoy the game are wastes of money, the consumer doesn’t get what they paid for. Bigger carts are more expensive true but we are talking on savings of a few cents here or there for the less capacity carts when they are already making the bank if they have a good product. Like anything else it only ends up costing them less than $5 per game to actually produce so saying they are going to be financially hurt by buying larger capacity carts negligible.
Considering almost nobody is willing to use 32GB cards, I find the prospect of offering larger-capacity cards to be a bit pointless. Nintendo will need to eat the costs by offering larger cards at lower prices to third parties if they're going to be adopted in any meaningful way, and I don't see any evidence of that happening.
There will always be a market for physical games, yes, but the future of game distribution is going to look increasingly digital. Especially as the physical-only dinosaurs of my generation are replaced by kids who grew up downloading and streaming their entertainment.
@GameOtaku I agree with you, but like Ralizah said above, so far, "almost nobody is willing to use the 32 GB card", and this is just the 32 GB card. I find that rather surprising 4 years after the launch of the Switch. I know Nintendo says/thinks the prices will come down, but so far there is a clear trend of 32 GB game cards scaring game companies off like the plague. Maybe the pandemic has halted larger cards.
Witcher 3 used a 32 GB card. I can't recall what else, but I'm pretty sure it's only like 2-3 games so far.
@WoomyNNYes
Considering the pandemic and all that may be slowing down larger releases. So far there’s not very many games that actually need that amount of storage. For compilations I don’t know why instead of forcing you to download partials they could instead have multiple smaller capacity carts in a box.
Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIV is out on Switch, finally. Any of you Civilization VI fans out there, or history buffs, this game will be right up your alley.
There’s actually an English Asian physical version on Play-Asia as well. Had to order that too. I’ve been wanting this series on Switch for years now. Massively disappointed when I saw Nobanuga’s Ambition and Romance of the Three Kingdoms XIII announced for Switch, but never made it out of Japan.

@JaxonH It's a good thing the physical version exists because the eShop prices are pretty crazy. Even still it's a bit much for me to take a chance on when I'm really not sure if I'd get into it or not, especially after taking a glance at its PC reviews.
Well my new Switch is arriving today. Can't wait to take my 1TB SD Card out of my current one, pop it into the new one, reformat it and then redownload 649GB of games 😭
