An Etrian Odyssey collection would be amazing!

@w00dm4n Polish jokes? What year is it?

Anyways, recently got this from Humble Choice and it's a fun title. It is more along the pacing of Northgard, so if you enjoyed that one you may like this one as well.

I don't have many opportunities to take advantage of Switch's portability, so if a game comes out on PC I will buy it there instead of on Switch. My Switch is only for exclusives I can't get on PC.

This also helps me avoid the "Switch tax" that makes the games more expensive - sometimes significantly so - than what it is sold for on PC.

It would make sense if Paper Mario is going back to the old style. With Alpha Dream gone, the Mario and Luigi games might be gone too. Now Nintendo can bring back the old Paper Mario gameplay without feeling like they are stepping on Alpha Dream's toes.

I've learned my lesson with the New 3DS and DSi. They end up only with one or two exclusive titles and some fairly marginal enhancements in a few other titles. I'll be skipping this one, assuming it is even real.

You have to wonder if this game will even be profitable for Nintendo. Seems like they are spending a lot of money on it. I hope it sells well.

Currently playing Metacritic's highest-rated game of the decade: Super Mario Galaxy 2!

It's a good thing they didn't stick to this, as this would have massively increased their workload going forward.

And seriously, Nintendo Life, are you even bothering to moderate comment sections anymore? I feel like half the time I go into one, it has veered way off topic.

My body is not ready for cloud-based gaming.

I don't see any political message in this at all.

I can't wait for the sequel to this: Bravely Default 2 Second.

Or maybe Bravely Second Second? Bravely Default 2 2? 🤔

@Old_Man_Nintendo I think you responded to the wrong person. I never said anything like that in this thread.

@RupeeClock Just doing it for the meme.

According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way that a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyways. Because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

Logically, this had to be the case. It's not as if everyone in the world of Pokemon were vegans.

It must be dangerous, living in a world where your food can fight back. 🤔

Persona 5 Royal certainly dropped more than I thought it would.

@AlexOlney Nintendo is a 32% owner in the Pokemon Company, so he's not entirely wrong here.

"Operational reasons" sure seems like a coded phrase for "credible death threats" to me, but I could be wrong.

@River3636 Yeah, I filled out this particular form and Nintendo responded by email with a repair number and a shipping label: https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/ask/ht/789

@River3636 This is incorrect. I sent mine in for repair without being charged for shipping.

Anyways, this is all well and good until the day Nintendo stops offering repair services for the Switch, something that has already happened to many 3DS models...

Much like Nintendo's crackdown on ROMs, this is probably another move to steer people to Nintendo Switch Online to play old games.

Nice clickbaity thumbnail, Nintendo Life :-/

@RupeeClock How dare you, sir.

Nintendo Life knocks the review score down partially because of a lack of marriages, despite admitting that these are children?

Weird...

This idea sort of sounds like the StreetPass mode in the 3DS version of the game, where you picked a fighter and picked some moves ahead of time. Every time you passed another person with the game, your fighter would battle the other person's fighter. The winner was determined by a combination of stats and how well your move selection did against the other person's.

I prefer the M30 I have now, but I do like the fact that the Retro Bit controller's L and R buttons actually map to L and R. On the M30, they map to ZL and ZR. 8bitdo really needs to provide a way to change that...

It's basically the Square Enix situation, where a third party developer will only consider putting a title on Switch if Nintendo foots part of the bill. Ridiculous.

Look, let's be honest. When Atlus teased a "P5S" name, they knew people would assume that it was a P5 Switch port. And they used that to build up hype for the announcement of this game.

They know what Switch owners want, and they took advantage of that to get us to pay attention to a different game.

So yeah, sorry if some of us are a little miffed about that.

Picking up Super Monkey Ball and Atelier Thigh-za.

Good to know that I'm not the only person with issues with the leg strap. It slips too much and I have to pull on it rather hard to get it strapped to the point where it won't move too much. I feel like I'm going to break it.

Also, the share button on the left joy-con seems to press itself several times during the workout. Weird.

SEGA and Konami: "Awaken dead franchises? What a concept!"

Blizzard literally running away from its fans now. Pathetic.

@YourGoodFriendly Daikatana and Duke Nukem Forever say hi.

Does it all come on one cartridge, or is a download required?

Trevor looks very confused on the Japanese box. Like a "Why am I here?" face.

Cool, a new person to add to the ol' ignore list.

Is this game really much better than Legend of Legacy? Because that game was not very good and Nintendo Life was a lot more generous in their review than other places.

I eagerly await the Untitled Goose Game X Legend of Zelda crossover:

Untitled Groose Game!

I like the art style. Etrian Odyssey meets Darkest Dungeon.

And with this week, Switch's gap over PS4 has now broken over 1 million units.

Unfortunately, this being the end of the PS4 life cycle means that a lot of games that could've been crossplay will never be so, since many devs will not bother going back to update their games.

It will be interesting to see if this policy continues for PS5.

"Unfortunately, Ultra Street Fighter II represents Capcom at its most lazy and exploitative"

Boy, that's REALLY saying something considering Capcom's output on Switch so far.

Already confirmed to be a dev kit.

I like the artwork I've seen for Mistover. It looks like a cross between Darkest Dungeon and Etrian Odyssey.

You can call it...........Untitled Groose Game!

@SmaggTheSmug They created an unauthorized Ms. Pac-Man cabinet, so they did indeed do something wrong here. They do not own the IP, only the rights to a revenue share. They also aren't keeping up their agreement with Walgreens to refund them for returned merchandise, which suggests AtGames is having a cash flow problem.

Since AtGames only owns the revenue share and not the IP, Namco should respond by not allowing Ms. Pac-Man to be used anywhere until AtGames transfers their agreement to Namco.

Good luck getting a revenue share of an IP that has no product.

Excellent news! I hope we can get 3 and 4 at some point as well.

Looks like there is a mistake in this poll. The "Dragon Quest Heroes I•II" option was probably meant to be for the original Dragon Quest game.

Thanks for the new profile picture.
