@UpsideDownRowlet I haven't, and I won't. I hate humor.

@Penguinpengy I mean, those are just the recommended ages for building "skill levels" or whatever. You won't get carded for buying this as a minor.

@Tacolatte Me? Oh no, I have no investments with them. I'm sure I'd agree with your latter sentiment.

@Henchdog Hahaha. Holy crap though. I wish they would include SD cards with these enormous titles. That should be the "special edition." XD

I feel like the trailer isn't that convincing for a Switch 2 version.

@UpsideDownRowlet They had me until I read that part.

@Mjplaysgames Tomorrow.

@nomither6 I remember it being fun. Haha.

Exciting! Thanks for the heads-up. I need to go buy another Switch 2 before the price increase, so I'll have enough storage space to download this beta file.

This is it, guys! Obviously, Nintendo is releasing a Casio watch exclusively in Japan to build enthusiasm for their English dub of Mother 3 on Nintendo Classics! Get pumped!

@demacho That's cool then. I thought their storylines were better than Pokemon's when I was little.

@Ooyah Yeah, seems like an odd choice.

@Ooyah Yeah, Jiminy is a Disney creation. But they changed that name. They wouldn't have to change everything else.

@demacho Oh wow, didn't know that. Stopped paying attention to Digimon a long time ago. Does it still live on in shows and movies?

We all know nothing would keep Smash fans happy like a port of Brawl.

Really nice of them to be so thorough with explaining the changes.

Hack-and-slash for Digimon? What a weird idea. I don't recall them ever wielding swords.

I don't know anything about this game or if it's even something for me, but this is great to hear feedback like this.

@Ooyah @MagnaRoader Oh, interesting. But Pinocchio has to be in the public domain now. That story and the characters are like, almost 150 years old.

@MagnaRoader Pumpernickel?

Hey, if it's the Modern Warfare universe, that means it's coming to Switch 2!

Taylor Sheridan is a great writer, so that's a good thing for the film.

@jsty3105 Hahaha! I tried to use a winky face, too!

Another clever collaboration.

@Ctrl_Alt_Delete @gusz Is that not what the "upgraded Gyroscope system parameters" are about? Is that some in-game thing?

Awesome! Glad to see the attention being given to this still. Definitely want to grab this some time.

@Ninetaled Right, and that's how. Labor costs are cut, which increases their net gains.

@squiddu-real I'm outraged. We don't even own our batteries anymore. How am I supposed to pass them on to my kids or lend them to a friend? At any moment, Nintendo might shut off the battery servers, and that will be it.

@Mommar Right, I'm not really saying it as a bad thing. Just trying to get people to keep in mind that it is a trade-off. Microsoft might keep prices low if we complain, but they will fire a ton of staff to make up for it. Might.

@tho_mi Well, they could, in theory. But I wasn't saying that as a negative observation, really. I was trying to throw up a reminder to keep that perspective that you're mentioning when we get sticker-shocked.

@jco83 Yeah, once they verify your NSO subscription and 20 hours of gameplay.

REMEMBER that with Nintendo keeping and even increasing its workforce, we can expect price increases on their products. They may reconfigure the salary distribution in their corporate ladder - something I think should be done everywhere - but it's highly likely that we pay for these "good" decisions. Those demanding physical media should also anticipate paying more for them.

@squiddu-real It should have been there DAY ONE. This is basically a Game-Key Card battery.

@EVIL-C Hahaha, exactly. I didn't know about the MAGA connection, but that tracks.

I'm most excited to try drums again. It was a pain with all the peripherals though.

Nice, appreciate the review! Glad to hear that the deckbuilding is assisted if desired; I do not care for the weeds. A demo sounds like a good idea for this!

@r0mer0 Hmm, planned obsolescence is a terrible poison on this planet, thanks to our industrialized capitalization and commodification of everything. But it's also a shared responsibility. Not that corporations don't bear a large portion of the blame, but we also invite these systems with our own behavior. There has definitely been a conditioning to influence us, but we happily discard anything and everything for something new or simply because it's more convenient. We all need to look in the mirror for real, lasting change. And also, yeah, corporations never do anything without being forced to. I can't recall instances where they have done otherwise. And, if they did so without legal pressure, then it was almost certainly a PR response that they offset by firing staff or raising prices. Anyway, it goes on and on, and so could I.

You have to have a Battery Replacement Kit?? There's always a catch with these greedy people... You probably can't activate the battery without a day one update either.

;P

@DangerZone Okay... What do you think? Also, take a look at the cover art that Nintendo Life provided.

@intergalacticNikolai You just can't see the future, silly human.

I mean, with GameStop, the results speak for themselves. So, trust this CEO and trust the process.

That's a lot of music! Pretty cool. They seem like they've been ramping up these Music updates recently.

@UpsideDownRowlet I hope so! That's how I would like all rainbows to be.

Cool! I've still yet to try this. I'm stuck like I was on S1, waiting until I clear storage space before I can try something else...

@roy130390 Could have been an email. XD

Kidding. Sounds like a good watch. I'll definitely check it out at some point. Thanks!

@Erigen Awesome, I'm glad you're having a good time with it! I had no real interest in this game, but yeah, the review caught my interest. I wouldn't say it's high on my list, but I'm definitely thinking about it.

Haha, good stuff. So, the camera's not tracking your movements, it's just a visual aide for the player? Do you just hold the Joy-Con for movement detection?
If one is comfortable with it, GameChat is actually kind of a neat idea for those that like to exercise with others.

@Erigen Right, I remember. They mentioned (and apologized for) that in the italicized text at the onset of the article.

Anyway, is it as good as they reviewed it? Enjoying your time with it?

@Erigen Did it release last week?

@Max_the_German I mean, if you keep releasing S1 games and don't encourage S2 adoption, then you splinter game sales. They're trying to drive momentum for the new console.

Dang, poor Star Fox. I think I'll still buy it at some point. But I doubt I'm the one that puts it over the proverbial mark.
