Re: Poll: With One Week To Go, What Are Your Switch 2 Launch-Day Plans?

Im going to hold off for a while. This will be the first Nintendo console I dont get at launch except for the NES. Between the prices here in Canada, and the launch games not interesting me too much. It just doesnt make sense to grab one yet. Now if they announce a 3D Mario or Zelda (Which seems really far off) then I will most likely cave.

I think this is the first Nintendo console since becoming an adult that I wont buy asap. Nothing was bad about it, Im just not excited for anything there. DK could be fun, but not a must play and Mario Karts Ive kind of grown out of. Ive never had a special edition console, maybe I wait for one of those this time. Or a 3D Mario game pulls me in eventually.

N64, is in my opinion the worst retro Nintendo console. Yeah it was amazing back then but it has aged poorly. The Zelda's, Mario 64, Paper Mario and Mischief Makers are probably the only games I would be interested in playing on it. Many of those I have access to...I would consider a whole console for Mischief makers though.

I assure you I would not have sent this to her if I thought she would be mad over it. She knows I don't care if she marries someone in a game. I sent her the article and we had a good laugh at the absolute absurdity of it. But I feel your pain, my mom also got rid of a lot of my stuff in the 90's without a word and it was always infuriating. Im sorry you had to go through that.

Im so excited to finally try Front Mission 1 and 2 (Played through #3 several times on PS1) and Live A Live finally coming west, and in the 2DHD style which I love. Chrono Cross will be fun to play again. Hoping these games get physical versions.

Xenoblade 3 is exciting, I finally played through #1 last year but have not started 2 yet.

Earthbound and the Switch will be nice, never did try beginnings on the Wii U, but I will for sure try it on switch.

Im excited for both Triangle Strategy and Kirby in March, and seeing more Kirby got me even more excited for it.

This was one of the best Directs I have seen, for me anyways.

Also Mario Kart DLC, I was a little bummed about it at first, but them adding it to the Expansion plus is a bonus since we ended up subbing to it at xmas time when we got our kids Switches. So they will be able to enjoy the DLC too.

Got my N64 that year, but I did not get Mario 64 (It was the one I wanted most though) and got Mortal Kombat Trilogy instead. My sister told my mom to get me that instead because she wanted to play it. My dad got me Tetrisphere, which was a horrible game. This may have contributed to me thinking the N64 is my least favorite Nintendo Console.

I didnt end up getting a copy of Mario 64 till the 2000's when I traded with my cousin for a copy of Legacy of Kain: Soulreaver for PS1.
