"We'll give you a pack of profile images themed to the movie exclusive to this set!"

@Coalescence No joke, my local CeX had 5 copies of Retro City Rampage for the Wii at one point. Last I checked, they still had 2-3 copies left, £65 each.

@GrailUK The eShop will still be there, just you can't buy anything. Only to redownload stuff you purchased and download any updates to new games you buy physically.

Some games will be pretty buggy without their day one patch I'd imagine, as well as needing the most to up date update for online play.

DLC for Scarlet and Violet
Hopefully Red, Blue and Yellow for the app (Betting GSC come later) and Stadium function
Rest of Gen 8 for Pokemon Go
Various game events
The rumoured Mystery Dungeon game

What is it Detective Pikachu sized or something?

@Korsica_Is_Best_Girl I doubt it. There's only so much time they have till they need to get to work on the DLC and then whatever the next game is afterwards (Let's Go, Gen 5 remake, Legends 2, Gen 10, etc.)

Should get more interesting as time goes on.

F Zero Climax was a 3rd GBA F Zero we never saw. Notable as it had a track editor.

Kuri Kuri Kururin also got a Japan only sequel, one for GBA and another on Gamecube.

Pokemon TCG 2, X, Mother 3, whether you speak the language or not there's a ton of possibilities of Japan exclusives to try out.

@edgedino Don't forget, we usually get a Pokemon Direct video of some kind on Pokemon Day (Feb 28th) so they could save an announcement for that.

Well, wouldnt be a new N64 game without emulation issues.

They'll try to fix it come the next game.

Have the full collection goal in mind but not obsessing over it.

I had the full Smash line up when the last ones for the Wii U/3DS games came out but got a bit burnt out when Smash Ultimate came out, hence missing a fair few. I'm patient and will wait for the ones I missed to get restocked but man, Joker's gonna be awhile isnt he? Still, the missing ones are just about still in the single digit.

As for the non-Smash, have a fair few but there are gaps and in the end will have to be ebay listings down the line as I see no scenario where Nintendo would rerelease the Wolly Yoshis or Samus Returns amiibo unless those games see a Switch port. And Boxboy will be the last one for sure.... XD

The Smash Bros FE amiibo have all been restocked too.

@RupeeClock No idea. Sometimes that store can be odd, other times it can be good like apparently my amiibo's arriving tomorrow. Not the first time I've had 24 hours delivery either.

5 hours in and still in stock.

I guess the My Nintendo Store has 5 million of them.... XD

Thanks for the heads up, snagged a Sephiroth in time.

European My Nintendo Store: Damn, we better get started!

Ahh yeah, an 1000 entry Pokerap. 😉

Bring em all over. If Square Enix can have most of the Final Fantasys and spin offs on modern systems, bar XBox, then lets have all the Tales games too.

Maybe give the Atari 50th lads a call?

Welp, you still have 2 months to buy the 3DS original, so long as your 3DS account is connected to your Switch one.

Oh I think we will see a new model, just something more in line with the Lite.

2019 saw the Lite, 2021 saw the OLED. They'll do some kind of gimmicky model to keep the Switch relevant till the successor arrives. Nothing new under hood, just...something.

I dunno what, Switch Mini? A non-portable home system?

"Please enjoy another rerelease of the Mega Drive games!"

Bayonetta Adventure game, DLC for Wonderful 101.

At this rate, I expect them to do something else no one expected like a Plat Games Kart racer.... XD

We moaned when these were not coming to console at first and now that they are, they're milking us dry because they know the demand.

And as soon as they milk us dry, boom. They'll be on Gamepass.

I think they really need to start adding SEGA/Mega CD games to the Mega Drive app to really make it more interesting and not repeatable. The Mini 2 had 12 so they could easily milk those with some MD games.

@Otoemetry I saw the Minecraft amiibo in stores. They'll print enough of these.

@KingMike Regardless, I think what we got was what Nintendo allowed them to release. They probably made a few bucks from it, but probably not a huge amount for them to allow Hamster to do anymore additional titles, whatever was left.

@HammerGalladeBro I don't think we're gonna see anymore Nintendo games in this line. Its been a long tme since the last one.

"They wanna turn us into Nintendo.....what the PS Move? Never heard of it!"

The Chief using the cannon to get to Yoshi to ride and eat other players.

Double Dash could do with some love but its a good line up.

It will be concerning if Game Freak don't put out a generic "We apologize for the issues with the game. We will work hard to patching these issues as soon as we can and ensure future titles will be better." in the next few days. If they don't well, they just know they can keep getting away with it.

And you playout the outcome in the next title, Justice Mama.

Mega CD added to the Mega Drive app (If the mini 2 can do it, Switch can too.)
Gameboy app obviously
Discounts on eShop purchases

It would be a death wish if the Switch Successor does not have backwards compatibly with the Switch. I think consumers are starting to get tried of rererebuying ports of games and that reflects in Sony and Microsoft offering full-ish BC on their current gen systems.

The NSO library will be easy to port over day one, its the downloads and carts that would be the real concern. Imagine being told you had to rebuy all those Resident Evil ports or MegaMan Collections all over again over a long milking session.

Not to mention free upgrades that XBox and Playstation do from last to current gen, it'll be interesting if Nintendo allows that if the successor has full-ish Switch BC.

@WaltherP99 @CazSonOfCaz You see the pattern? 1 every 2 years. That could mean a new model by next Sep/Oct...

...assuming the successor isnt around the corner of course.

I know it won't sell subs, but maybe SEGA can consider adding SEGA CD games?

We've seen they're possible on the mini and I can't imagine the file sizes are TOO big, so why not make the Mega Drive library a little more interesting?

Or you know, a new model with minor upgrades at a higher price, then you can discontinue the OG model.

We are coming up to 2 years since the OLED and 4 since the Lite models.

@SnowyOwl I think the ship has sailed for submitting new eShop or physical titles for Wii U. Even patches has to be approved so unless they submitted it before the deadline, I doubt its happening.

Seems odd given the number of times the likes of Mario Kart and BOTW rerere-enter the top 10 best sellers of the week on a regular basis...

Come oooooooon Volume 3.

They're considering the Model 3 Genesis?

Then can we PLEASE get 32X games to finish the trilogy? Might be the only shot at a new Knuckles Chaotix port.

Oh and the usual "Gimmie Dreamcast/Saturn" wishes.

@Joeynator3000 Which is why they released it with its better sequel, to distract gamers with N64 Controllers from playing the first and filing new lawsuits.

It deserves it.

Give these guys the X-Men or Simpsons IP to make spiritual successors to those Konami arcade games!

I've given up, I'll just pay a scalper a few years down the line.

@RubyCarbuncle Change the difficulty to custom, change the custom settings to their lowest difficulties, and its a walk in the park.

@anoyonmus They've been on a run with their collections in recent years. The Castlevania/Contra/Arcade trio, Castlevania GBA, hell we got that TMNT Collection they could have easily not bothered with what with the license and all, but they did it. And now a Suikoden HD Remaster.

I think a lot is possible with their backcatalogue.

What happens when you accidentally switch off your website.

The maintenance hasn't gone well for them hasn't it?

Welp, watch the ballet be stuffed with Gen 5 remake votes.

@mereel On the Japanese Direct, it had a coming in 2023 marker.

@Serpenterror That was EJ2.
