‘We gotta let it simmer. We got a moment where it has to simmer….’

@OLD64FOREVER thank you so much, have a great time from me in Northern Ireland 😆

@GrailUK the US equals the whole world, didn’t you know? 😆 Michael Jackson’s Thriller is the worlds largest selling album in music HIStory, by far, but the US media report an Eagles greatest hits album as such, because apparently it has sold more in the US, and that’s all matters 😆

Love to see DK doing so well, that’s the game I’m most excited for when I get my own Switch2

Interesting to see what this does to sales of hardware and MKW itself, or if Nintendo have someone else up their sleeves. My son’s bundle was secured long ago and I’ll be wrapping it up in exactly two days time. I’ll be getting my own Switch2 at some point next year, I wonder what options I’ll have bar the system on its own?

@OLD64FOREVER I have to say I really enjoy your comments here ☺️

Did they release a statement explaining themselves? I feel like these developers should have to address their paying customers. They and others seem content to just buck their games out there knowing they can and should do better, but can and WILL get away with it. I’ve said it before, but we deserve better.

There’s no way that’s the PS5 version of Minecraft on the chart guys @nintendolife

Why do these devs continue to sabotage their hard earned reputations. Shocking, something should be done in my opinion, we deserve better.

The good thing is, your work necessitates sinking your teeth in to this @nintendolife 😅 time off indeed 😉

Still number 1 on the Switch2 eShop, via the Nintendo Store app. It has tumbled on the Switch eShop though, interestingly enough!

It’s outrageous the state games get released in. I KNOW problems can be identified and ironed out once a game is in the hands of the paying public, but this is not ok and should not be supported or rewarded at all. Not a good look!

Don’t know about the game, but JAWS is possibly my favourite movie ever made. The book is great too.

Quick look at the Nintendo Store App and this game is currently number 2 on the Nintendo Switch2 charts, behind Beyond at numero uno

@Old-Red oh yeah, that is priceless. I so wanted a Switch for myself, but even better was getting one just for my son for Christmas, letting him have all the joy and kudos of it being his alone. I got mine the following May, and I’m doing the same with Switch2. I’m slowly saving for my own, but my boy will have his very own on Christmas morning.

Ha, all I wanted one year was a SEGA Saturn. My brother and I were too old for Santa so my Dad and his… I wanna say mate, but more accurate would be crony, Paddy Wacker took us shopping and gave us a budget… all I wanted was that SEGA Saturn though, and my late Dad got me it and Street Fighter Alpha2 ☺️

@Skunkfish probably Sonic 06 😆

I don’t know what’s more impressive, the Switch2 hardware sales or the OG Switch family of systems! Amazing all round

Let’s be honest, it looks and plays incredible either way. I’m personally extremely irked this has got an 8/10 on OG Switch hardware! Can’t get my head around that @nintendolife

Great! I’ll be there

That’s a real shame! I did pull the trigger on Age of Imprisonment last week, it arrived this morning. It’s for Christmas for my son to accompany his Switch 2 and MKW, very excited for him.

@MrGawain I have it ordered, thanks for the tip 👍 My nephew is looking Pokémon ZA on Switch 1 from his Granny, so I told my Mum but she’d already picked it up

@MrGawain £50 is a good price, yeah? I have a Switch2 and MKW bundle put away for my son for Christmas, he loved the other two Warriors games on Switch, tempted to jump on Age of Imprisonment at that price, what do you think?

I know some people love this, and I know it’s their job, their thing… but all I can think is, bugger off ya big bore bags lol

Nice! Already aware of this as I’m still playing Pikmin Bloom, Level 106.

@datamonkey without digital figures included, we’ll never know the true picture, and that ball is in Nintendo’s court

@Max_the_German omg you’re right… the entire PS4/5 and XBOX family of systems, outsold by the Switch Lite SKU

Those Switch2 and OG Switch family of systems figures… unreal 🙌

I have massive respect for Panic Button, DOOM was the first game I downloaded from the eShop back in 2018, and I played through it again this year. Had so much fun with that game, hats off 👏

I was out for a family dinner on Friday and my 7 year old nephew had his head in his Mum’s phone most of the evening. When I asked him what he was playing, he said Brainrot. Looked like the very definition of AI slop to me.

I’ve still to pick it up in the next week or two for my son for Christmas, he’ll love it. Some great Nintendo representation throughout the charts. The price of games now, people will definitely be more picky.

Teletext was such a big part of my teenage years! I loved Digitizer with Mr. Bigfoot lol and that’s where I first heard of Mar10 day, as that was how it was displayed on teletext! Planet Sound, the football pages, seeing tv viewing numbers… lol that was a glorious time 😆

That is awesome news for existing owners, 👏

Once again, the Switch Lite alone outsells the PS5 family of systems. That’s gotta sting… my mistake, the PS5 trio of systems HAS outsold the Switch Lite this week, by 16 units.

It obviously never WAS that bad, it just wasn’t what people wanted. Not from Animal Crossing, not on Wii U, and not at that time.

Film of the Year for me will be Michael, but I am SUPER excited for the Super Mario Galaxy Movie! 😆

Between the Michael Jackson movie and this, I’ll be visiting the cinema a lot in April. I’ll see this once, Michael multiple times I have no doubt. Those two movies are gonna be MASSIVE

@jobvd that reminds me of the good old days, chanting ‘$ony $ucks!’ outside Michael Jackson’s hotel when they were beefing 😆

@Hank_Scorpio you are not alone my friend 😆

Pikmin Bloom! If nothing else, I have already planted loads of flowers at my local Parkrun, Montalto Estate 😆

You know the way some folks, instead of getting their car serviced before M.O.T. and instead send it on through to find out what’s wrong with it? This is the gaming equivalent of that lol. At least the patch notes are fun ☺️

@Don rehashes and remasters weren’t really a thing then, the industry was still in its relatively early days I would say, still growing.

We as gamers do seem to demand more and more, bigger, better, more FPS, higher resolution. We’re all experts here sure, everything is sloppy, lazy, why didn’t they do this, Nintendo should have done that, laughing and sneering at everything that isn’t absolutely jaw dropping. The amount of times here someone claims a game is literally unplayable… we’ve only ourselves to blame at times.

@johnedwin well it was a cert you’d be less than impressed… 🙄

@Olliemar28 great hardware numbers for Switch and Switch2, and super software numbers too for the big hitters

Never mind the OLED… the Switch LITE outsold the entire PS5 family of systems on its own 😆

Hope the Switch 2 version is a big improvement for the fans, and a $5 (discounted) upgrade option? Credit where it’s due, hats off to SEGA.

@SBandy1 I never knew that was the case with RE4! I bought my GameCube late in the day, GAME in Lisburn I think, alongside MK DD, Viewtiful Joe… and the mighty RE4. That was one of a handful of games that properly blew me away during my decades of gaming, along with probably Super Mario World, Street Fighter 2, Donkey Kong Country, Metroid Prime and Galaxy.

@ShadLink oh boy, tell me about it mate 🤦‍♂️

I work in a hardware store, and I had a lady in today buying bikes for her kids for Christmas. Her sister was with her and she has two Switch, one each for her two kids, for their big Christmas present. I mentioned I have a Switch2 for my son and the one buying the bikes promptly told me it’s no good, a waste of money and there’s ’a big controversy about it’. She proceeded to tell me I don’t own the device, just a licence for it, and they can shut it off anytime they like. I reassured her I’m a big Nintendo fan and I think it’ll be ok. What a world we live in lol
