@Wisps Whoa, thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it! And for others' comments too. Thanks all!

@GamingFan4Lyf You're right! I should really have put that in there to begin with. I'll add it in.

@Mioaionios Oh gosh yeah, thanks for reminding me! So many compilations 😅

@Teksetter And donuts (and all good food) ARE important

@Bunkerneath Ohhh yes sorry. I'm sure it won't! At least I hope not.

@Bunkerneath Haha, no, I think I scared some people by using that image! We've swapped it out now (should look like the Japanese one)

@shock_trooper Sort of expected it but yeah, that's what I really wanted

@RushDawg We were just grabbing the full list ourselves. I've popped it in there now And we've got a guide too which has all of the Japanese games for comparison https://www.nintendolife.com/guides/mega-drive-mini-2-games-list-every-genesis-and-sega-cd-game-announced

@Manxman64 If it's the same as other Sword & Shield codes then yeah, I believe you can redeem a second code using another profile.

@FiveDigitLP @hypercoyote I've just updated the guide to make things clearer! Thanks for pointing that out.

@Maxz @Ralizah Nice catch! Fixed.

@ShikabaneHime13 Good catch, thanks! It should be there now.

Just a little thing to note - Two Point Campus is on here again as this week's release (on 9th) is only for the Bonus Content version. A second version drops on 16th which is the same price but doesn't have the bonus content included!

Happy downloading

@Clyde_Radcliffe Nice catch, thank you! I've added that in.

Would help if I added the poll when I say "Vote in the poll"!

@Bret Just double-checked and it is 4v2v2 - The team that's ahead in the first round will have four players in the second round, and the other two teams will just have two. I'll make that clearer in the post!

@Rambler Oops, I'm muddling Manchester itself with Greater Manchester! That'll get me in trouble. Thanks for the reminder, I've corrected it!

@a1904 Not pedantic at all! All updated!

@Otoemetry Always happy to see something I'm enjoying doing so well. It's amazing to see how far Xenoblade has come

@Otoemetry Nothing yet, unfortunately!

@Otoemetry I saw Ollie replied already but yeah, all we know is that the data is delayed 😅 we all are eager to find out how Xeboblade did! But we'll get the charts up as soon as we can when the data is in.

@gcunit @Ooccoo_Jr No indeed, it's many people! Thanks for spotting. All fixed.

@Sega69X That's not me, nope! Sorry

@TowaHerschel7 Just because it might be a Japan-exclusive, doesn't mean others don't want to know about it! It's a pretty significant update. But I'll update the post with our story on Level-5 from a few years ago. I used to love them and it does make me sad we might never get a new game from them in the West...

Points taken on the clumsy wording! I've removed the wording around the improved score and the 28-year-old game.

@fragranthills Thank you! The embed should be fixed now.

@CANOEberry The translated tweet is from NStyles who said this after the notes were published, and I think the rough translation coupled with my wording isn't helping here!

I think the "you" is potentially Shinya Takahashi. Momiji was told by them (or someone at the meeting) if the games they asked about are mentioned in the minutes, they'll be remembered.

I'll make all of that a little clearer in the article thanks for letting me know

@Cynas oops, yes, you're right! Thank you, I've updated the article.

@Ryu_Niiyama Thanks, I'm not sure how I missed this or the comments! I've amended the article and issued a correction at the top. Thank you for tagging me.

@AlternateRT That's definitely worth an update, and I've done just that. Thanks for pointing this out!

@GrailUK A liiiiittle embarrassing from me, isn't it? Glad it gave you some amusement though! I've fixed it here and I'll go through and check all my old errors. Not sure what's going through my brain when writing these! Thanks for spotting it when it happens!

@gaga64 Good point! I think I'd blocked that one out... I've tweaked the wording

@Otoemetry I'm assuming so! All we've been told is that the weekly data has been delayed. As soon as we get the info, we'll get the charts up

@Markiemania95 I'm just dropping tests for you now (thank you!)

@Markiemania95 You've got my back again! I was doing pretty well too.

@AhabSpampurse It's a beautiful typo!

@PBandSmelly Guiltyyy (it was very wordy!)

@Ear_wiG Yep! We will be reviewing it!

@RubyCarbuncle Same here, just erring on the side of caution for now! It would be a bit weird if it wasn't.

Just a little heads up — I've added a line about "online or local" because there's nothing specific on the website about this. If I had to guess, online would be 100% a yes, but I really hope local four-player co-op is a thing, too. Hopefully we'll get some confirmation further down the line.

@dew12333 oopsie! Definitely too slow. We've updated the news story and double-checked now too. Thanks for letting us know!

@HammerGalladeBro I was digging around and WiKirby lists it as being announced in 2004, but rereading it (and the cited IGN article), E3 2005 may have been where it was shown off. I'll take out the mention of E3 since I think I conflated the two. Thanks for pointing that out! https://wikirby.com/wiki/Kirby_for_Nintendo_GameCube

@LuigiBlood Yeah, you're right actually. Let me take that out and add something about the enemies too Thanks for mentioning this too @Fizza

@PALgamer Ahh that explains it. Thank you for letting us know!

@Aquafox84 I didn't intend for it to be mean-spirited, it was a genuine error that I apologised for and fixed. I should've been more diligent, though. I can see how part of the remaining article could've come off like that, so I've changed the wording to be more general on returning cast members. Mistakes happen and I've been trying to be more careful.

@Kiwi_Unlimited Why thank you!

@Greatluigi rereading the announcement and coverage from other sites, it doesn't strictly say the game is playable offline, so I may have misinterpreted it! I've changed this in the story. Sorry to get your hopes up 😅 totally my bad there.

@Markiemania95 slow clap I'll see myself out.

@Sonos I've only played a bit of 2, and all of 3 and 4, but it's really good to hear the series was trying and innovating right from the get-go! The series really is underrated. And I'm glad you're enjoying!

My RPG heart wants a proper Breath of Fire 6. I'd also LOVE a new Strider.

@Markiemania95 That was a pretty hig miss from me! That whole sentence was a mess 😅 thanks!

@mjharper Copy/paste is a blessing and a curse All fixed. Thank you for spotting!

@Joeynator3000 Looks like it was taken down for a bit late last night — seems like it was released too early. It's back now

@CrazyCats Oops, got it! Thank you!

Since I saw some people asking about PAL box art, I'll ask about it today. This is the first time I've done Box Art Brawl, and I know Kirby 64's PAL box is basically the same as NA's but with a big black border, but I know we've often done those comparisons in the past. Would be good to get the third horse back in the race!
