When I was in school, I was severely strapped for cash. I sold, and it pains me to say this, Majora's Mask, the Majora's Mask Guide booklet, Mario Galaxy, and my Gamecube. I have been kicking myself for years and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.
This was me with the game Wacky Wheels. For a few years, I thought I might have dreamt it, but I distinctly remembered playing as and loving the shark character was I was a little kid. I finally found it just a couple of years ago. I will say, though, it aged horribly. Hahaha!
I'll say it, it's too expensive. $40 is a lot, especially when they're competing for our money during one of the best years in gaming. $20, or even $30 would have been a much more compelling price tag.
I love how other gaming news outlets are like, "Will they/won't they buy Call of Duty," or "Gamers are furious that a game that looks like Assassin's Creed 37 won't run at 60 fps." And then you come here and people are actually having fun playing video games.
@Dpishere Is it the right price, though? I mean, as of right now Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart is the same price as this game. This game looks like it could probably have been $5–$10 DLC for the first game... and the first game should have just come packed in for free with the Switch.
Wait, you can get Gold Coin points for physical versions of a game!? I had no idea. Dang it! How long is it until the expiration period is over for a game?
I will pick this up for sure, but I have WAAAAAY too many games that I'm trying to play before TotK comes out... because that'll basically take up the rest of my year. Hahaha!
I walked into this trailer not wanting to have my hopes too high, but this trailer shattered my expectations and I kind of lost my effing mind. I am SOOOOO stoked for this game.

Re: Talking Point: Which Nintendo IP Should 'Switch 2' Launch With?
Metroid Prime 4 and show off everything those new system can do. That would be a Day 1 purchase for me.

Re: Feature: Nintendo eShop Selects - June 2023

@EaglyPurahfan Can you imagine? Families try booting the game up for their kids and then they're hit with a 45-minute eulogy.
