Expect the price to be in the four digits despite the design consisting mostly of spheres.

Fair enough, but if this is a step forward... then we need free trials way more often. A week at a time is good, I guess, as long as we're talking about a game a month.

So let me get this straight. We went from first-party once-in-a-few-months to third-party-at-best once-in-a-few-months?
Work hard on that "appeal", Furukawa-san.

@Gavintendo
Speak for yourself, videogame music is awesome behind the wheel.

@Noid
If Cuphead's DLC ends up releasing in five years from now, there's no way in Inkwell Hell I'm going through that again.

Pre-order bonuses, that's just golden.
Other than that, it's shaping up to be better than the original in just about every way. Here's hoping I get to review it.

Kingdom Hearts III singlehandedly turned Einhander into a cult classic. I don't know about the game proper, but pre-release material makes this a perfect fit for the Disney/Square multiverse.

If Mario's removal from the eShop was the injury, this is definitely the insult.

"And it’s not strategy that we’re going to be using widely"
Dude, Fire Emblem literally was removed the same day.

Well, that's a distraction from Mario for sure. I knew Nintendo needed something to lure gamers away from an anti-consumer practice.

April 1st, at Nintendo Headquarters:

Furukawa: "Aw damn, I realized just now we were getting money from 3D All-Stars."

@BloodNinja

@ThomasBW84 is back? AW YES SIRREEEEEE

I'm gonna quote Breaking Bad's Mike Ehrmantraut once again: "I've never seen anybody work so hard not to get five million dollars".

Wait, hang on, the coins are sorted by level?
Hell, I'm in!

When you organize a gathering of the fans, walk on stage and the first thing you hear from the live audience is an anguished "fix the game" screamed at the top of the lungs, you should know there's a long way to go before moving on to other franchises.

And yet, here we are.

I'm going to review one of these this week, wish me luck.

There is nothing good that could come out of this. I could understand the reasoning behind limited releases when it comes to more niche stuff like MOTHER, I guess. But Mario? That's just free money that Nintendo doesn't want.

If I enjoy Mario as much today, it's because I got my start with Crash when I turned 10. It's a good time, but maybe I'd suggest getting through the N. Sane Trilogy first if you want to get some mileage out of the new entry.

Am I the only one not giving an absolute $#17 about 4K resolution here? I thought HD was already enough. Maybe it's just me though, me and most likely the fact a 4K TV would require a second mortgage or something.

"You know, I have never seen anybody work so hard not to get $5 million."
(Mike Ehrmantraut, from the Breaking Bad episode Buyout)

"You know, I have never seen anybody work so hard not to get $5 million."
(Mike Ehrmantraut, "Buyout", Breaking Bad)

We'll see either of those games pop up in a Direct this year, or maybe in 2022. The only thing Nintendo wants, probably, is to make sure they can slap a "... by popular demand!" label during the reveal.

If "not Game Freak" equals "full National Pokédex", count me the f#@k in.

@henrysbloggin
Nice try.

Sakurai is like the binary version of Tom Holland. Observe.

I wouldn't mind getting some games off my wishlist.

Wasn't the Youtooz brand supposed to cover youtubers or am I just out of the loop that much?

@Jayenkai
Trains are 3D World material. They've been used for the Airship theme in Super Mario Maker 2, since the actual airships are from 3D Land.

I've been out of luck for a review copy on the site I write for, so it's Wishlist until Christmas for me.

Way to go, Noah! Welcome to the family!

All we need now is another British studio to make "Thief of Kings" on PlayStation and then it will all come full circle!

@johnvboy
Lemme grab the popcorn first, this is gonna be a treat.

Each article proving Brenna Hillier's pre-release death sentence on the Switch wrong gives me life.

This is it until the fiscal year ends, methinks.

And with next-gen out in the wild, we still don't know jack about Nintendo's 2021 slate.

Banjo-Threeie. Funded by Nintendo, developed by Playtonic, owned by Microsoft. Timed exclusivity on Switch, after a year (or less) it will be on Xbox One/Series X/S too.
Sure, it's a wild guess but face it, we've seen weirder in the last few years. 2020 in itself notwithstanding.

Ryan Drummond was the first voice of Sonic, games-wise, for me. A bit nasal, for sure, and my region will end up with Renato Novara anyway, but Drummond would more than make up for Smith's contract ending.

@Mallen001
"Hey, it worked for Mario's thirty-fifth!"

Yeah, as if that's really the actual release schedule. Of course, we all know those are totally all the games we're going to see.
Nintendo's gonna pimp it up big time before December.

Wasted opportunity to not have this as the thumbnail.

Says a lot about the speed of progress in the games, to be honest.

Well, well, well. An entry in the Capcom vs. SNK series in the same art style as Pocket Rumble? Where do I sign?

We'll never see the actual game coming to Nintendo Switch.

The mid-gen upgrade shouldn't be a Switch Pro. It should be the Joy-Con Pro. A Joy-Con that does't drift, or at least does after a GameCube controller's worth of resistance.
There, fixed it.

Of course y'all felt the need to twist this into a Tingle hate-fest.

It ain't got nothin' on Super Circuit's own Rainbow Road, which had a honestly backside-kickin' shortcut.

@Bobb
Boy howdy, does Wario ever have news for you.

If Super Mario Run and the like started giving out Gold points... hoo boy, my phone would never see the end of it.

@Not_Soos
Man, do they ever! Not much in the first game, but from the second onwards... hoo boy! Snow Biz, Sewer or Later, Double Header, Bee-Having, Bear It, and who could forget... PISTON IT AWAY. Yeah, it's a level name.
