The biggest Switch game of the year arrives May 12th
We're so close to the release of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and although we know it's going to be an absolutely massive launch, we're still also curious to know whether or not our community here on Nintendo Life will be picking up the game. During our recent hands on, we thoroughly...

Poll Box Art Brawl Duel: Yoshi's Story
Mlem
It's the weekend and that means it's time for another edition of Box Art Brawl. Before we head into this week's dino duel, let us first recap what happened last time. In celebration of its 30-year anniversary, we looked at the Gotham-set beat 'em up Batman Returns on the SNES, pitting the EU/NA and Japanese covers against each other. Simply...
Feature Best Royals In Nintendo Games - Who's Your Favourite?
Dauphindom
Nintendo games are filled with royals and, for the most part, they are significantly less controversial than any real-world monarchs. You won't catch HRH Princess Zelda yawning during a Hylian military parade, or King Boo claiming he's physically incapable of perspiring (although that might make sense in his case). Nintendo Land tabloids...
Poll Who's Your Favourite Champion In Zelda: Breath Of The Wild?
No time for losers
Everyone's going down with Zelda fever at the minute, as previews for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom arrive and get us in the Hylian mood once again.

Poll Box Art Brawl: Duel - Batman Returns (SNES)
Back with a vengeance
Welcome, one and all, to another week's Box Art Brawl (rhyming unintentionally, we promise). Before we head into this week's super picks, let's first take a look at how the previous battle went down. Last week, we took a look at the covers for Final Fantasy IV on the DS and it wasn't a remotely close race. The colourful...
Poll One Year On, What Other Events Should Be Added To Nintendo Switch Sports?
Was golf really enough?
If you can believe it, it has been one whole year since we first got our hands on Nintendo Switch Sports and immediately decided, "Huh, it's just like Wii Sports. Only smaller. And £50." Of course, some of these impressions were improved somewhat by the free addition of Golf in November of last year, but for the most part,...
Random Nintendo's New Zelda Video Asks "When Did You First Wield The Master Sword?"
You have my sword
The countdown to The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is very much on, and in the run-up to the game's release Nintendo is taking a look back at Link's journey with the Master Sword throughout the series. From what we have seen of Tears of the Kingdom so far, it's fair to say that the legendary blade has seen better days and,...
Anniversary Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade First Launched 20 Years Ago Today
The West's first Fire Emblem game
Today marks the 20th anniversary of Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade, the seventh entry in the Fire Emblem series, in Japan. But what makes this title extra special is that this was the game that brought the tactical RPG series to the West. A North American release followed in November 2003, with Australia and Europe...
Poll What Review Score Would You Give Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp?
Hot takes deployed
We had to wait a while for this one, and we don't just mean due to the 'global events' (also known as the Russian invasion of Ukraine) that caused Nintendo to delay Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp for a year. Nope, ever since Fire Emblem took off in the West, the Advance Wars series has taken a back seat to turn-based tactical...
News Alear Tops Fire Emblem Engage 'Popularity Poll' In Japan

Poll What Do You Think Of The New Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster Font?
Font-tastic? Or font-al?
Has it sunk in yet that almost every single mainline Final Fantasy game between I and XII is now available on the Switch? That's thanks to this week's release of the Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster series, which was long, long overdue. Back when the games launched on Steam and mobile between 2021 and 2022, lots of people were...

You spoony bard!
Hello folks, and welcome to another edition of Box Art Brawl! Before we get cracking with this week's rumble, let's take a look at how the votes panned out last time.

Talking Point Which Is Your Favourite Nintendo Controller? Every Nintendo Pad Ranked
Note pad
Nintendo has always been one for pushing the boat out with its hardware designs, and no more so is this the case than with its controllers. Yes, those of the NES and SNES were pretty conventional by today's standards (though they were remarkably innovative at the time) but in the ensuing years, the Big N's controllers have had us waving...
Poll Which Was Your First 'Final Fantasy'?
The first, or the final?
Now that Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster is out on Switch, it means that 11 of the 15 (soon to be 16) mainline games are now available on Nintendo's hybrid console, some of them in multiple forms. That's mad. Given the sheer breadth of the franchise's history since the release of the first game back in 1987, we imagine...
Anniversary Five Years Ago, Nintendo Unboxed Its Most Joyful, Harebrained Experiment
A Labo of Love
Five years ago today, Nintendo told the world to get creative and create pianos, fishing rods, and — eventually — a giant cardboard VR headset. That's right, Nintendo Labo is half a decade old, and as we look back, we're feeling a little bit fond. Debuting in April 2018, this quasi-toys-to-life creation may have essentially been...
Poll Breath Of The Wild Vs. Tears Of The Kingdom - Which Final Zelda Trailer Was Better?
The true Battle of Hyrule
With a little under four weeks remaining until the worldwide launch of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, it's still a little early to debate whether or not the game itself will be superior to its predecessor, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. You know, seeing as nobody's played it yet, an' all. We here at...
Talking Point Which Nintendo Franchise Should Illumination Tackle Next?
Gruigi time?
The box office for The Super Mario Bros. Movie is huge. Like, record-breaking huge. It feels like yesterday that cries of "the video game movie curse" filled the air whenever a new take on a game hit cinemas, but now we know that these adaptations can be both good and big. Really big. The Mario Movie's success at the box office will...

Poll Which Is The Best Ganondorf?
Let's grade the gorgeous Gerudo
Let's talk about Ganondorf. Yes, that final trailer for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom really was something, but what was the internet's biggest talking point once it was out in the open? Ganondorf got swole. Now that we know of Ganondorf's appeara

"Our last line of defence will be Link"
Well, there you have it folks. We have now seen all of the trailers that we are going to get before the official release of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom in just under a month and let us be the first to say it: that was awesome.

Mega Man Mop Up Collection, anyone?
With the release of Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection for the Switch this week, it joins an already-impressive catalogue of Mega Man re-releases from the past several years.

Talking Point With One Month 'Til TOTK, What's Left For You To Do In Zelda: Breath Of The Wild?
It's crunch time
The clock bell has tolled. Only one month remains before the release of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. One. Month. Suddenly, this game that we have been anticipating for the last six years is almost here and out of nowhere a realisation struck us, one powerful enough to send a cold chill down anyone's spine: we still...
Talking Point Just How Old Is Mario In The Super Mario Bros. Movie?
It's not a birthday, it's a 1-Up
Back when Mario was nothing more than an 8-bit sprite on our NES consoles, we were not all that concerned about age. After all, he's the jumpy mushroom guy, who cares how many birthdays he's seen? This is the kind of mentality that's been carried through into most of the subsequent games. Even as the character's...
Poll Did You Use Motion Controls In Mario Kart Wii?

It's not the years, it's the mileage
It's 2023 and there's a brand-new Indiana Jones film coming out in a matter of months. It shouldn't come as a surprise, really.

Talking Point What's The Best Year In Gaming?
Cream of the crop
Games are so good, right? Looking back over the years and decades, it's difficult to actually think of a year that's been objectively bad in terms of gaming output; generally speaking, with the wealth of consoles and developers out there, there's always been at least a handful of games every year that spoke to us in a meaningful...
Poll Box Art Brawl: Duel - Burger Time Deluxe
Flip out
Welcome, one and all, to another edition of Box Art Brawl! Last week, we got retro as we looked back at the North American and Japanese box art for Mega Man X2 — two very different styles, presenting a very different game experience.

Feature Which Zelda Game Has The Best Link? - Every Link Ranked From Worst To Best
Link's Arankening
Across 19 mainline games and a handful of spinoffs, the Hero of Time has taken on a variety of forms.

Poll Six Years On, Which Was Nintendo Switch's Best Year So Far?
Which brought you the most Joy(-Con)?
The Switch has been out for a whopping six years today! Can you believe it?

Either way, making it to a sixth birthday while...

Talking Point Why Are So Many Remasters Sub-Par At Launch?
Remastering the wheel
Remasters are fantastic, but they're also a little bit weird. They give us the chance to revisit some of our favourite games from our childhood, give new players the opportunity to share in our experiences, and sometimes they represent the first time a game is getting an international release. But why are they so inconsistent?...

Zelink 4eva xxx
Zelink might be one of the biggest ships out there, and it's hardly controversial to want Zelda and Link, the two owners of the Triforce that aren't evil, to end up together. They're entwined in destiny, fated to keep meeting, and falling into the princess/hero dichotomy that keeps them separate once more. And yet, they've never...
