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.

Boulders. I want to fuse them all to sticks.

Wait, am I supposed to pay them for the cloud version or are they supposed to pay me?

I'm still making my way through TotK. One masterpiece at a time.

The people who didn't vote for 1080 are the people that didn't grow up with an N64.

Work your body, work your body!

Make this a bulleted list instead of a ranked one, and you've got a list of 100 of the finest creations the world has made in the past 40 years.

So, I marked that I played these on NSO, but... there's this little thing called Snes9x...

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.

Does Tears of the Kingdom count since it's basically the only game I played for the entire month of June?

Any other UX designers get thrown off by "Figma" in the title?

Just beat a Gleeok King this morning. It's not even a question at this point for me what's the best game I've played this year... or decade.

Wait... did the bats in this game just make the same sound effects at Keese? Did I hear that right at 0:51?

You know, Nintendo's audience who play actually good games.

There's no way this will run on Switch. #SwitchPro

Seeing as how my PS5 has a layer of dust and I have over 80 hours in Tears of the Kingdom, uh, yeah, there's a little competition.

My wallet cried a little during the direct this morning. Hahaha!

I'm a big platformer fan, SNES fan, and Mario fan... so yeah, this Direct was for me.

I would love if NintendoLife could revisit this game for an updated review. These massive updates might make this game go up a point or two.

75 hours in and I'm guess I have more than 75 hours to go.

Looks like Metroid Dread, so yes, very yes this has potential to be fantastic.

This has been my favorite announcement so far this week. I can't wait for this game to come out.

13/17 That was a breeze until it wasn't. Haha!!

This would be perfect... 2 or 3 years ago. Seeing as how the next system is just around the corner, I won't be picking this up.

I absolutely love 2D Sonic, so I might have gotten a little too excited when he showed up at Game Fest. I can't wait.

Horror Disney vibes. There's a word for that: Over the Garden Wall.

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

@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.

Gotta love PowerA making a controller that looks like Pikachu has big ol' blue t*****s

@Zimon There are dozens of them. DOZENS!

@The_Trooper49 Here's hoping! Hahaha!

@Cashews We do have a modern Tolkien. Have you dived into world of Brandon Sanderson? Truly one of the greatest fantasy writers of our time.

@mariomaster96 and much much worse

I've never been a Splatoon guy, but this trailer made me want to pick up Splatoon in spite of Square Enix.

Easily the best gameplay trailer from Sony's showcase. This looks incredible.

Where is the 11/10 option?

This could be for Sony's dumb new streaming device that they're working on. Who knows.

Don't cry, wallet. It'll only hurt for a little bit.

Seriously, though, I've never bookmarked a page this fast before.

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.

Getting fired is probably the least of what it could have been. Those Nin-jas could've sued the pants off of him.

15/15: Both my score and how many of these got me to laugh out loud

I want this Switch. I want it so bad, but I'm saving up now for the Switch 2, and it's too late in the console generation for me to justify this purchase.

I lost my effing mind when Link fused that rock to a stick. My mind exploded with the possibilities that are now available. Nintendo has a masterpiece on their hands. I have no doubt.

@SnackBox No, Nintendo cannot do anything. If emulators were illegal then NSO wouldn't exist.

@sanderev Emulators are legal. Downloading ROMs is not. Dolphin is fine.

About. Effing. Time. I was emulating Sin & Punishment: Star Successor on my Steam Deck last night and it was great until, out of the blue, the frame rate became a complete and unfixable cluster-eff. I'm so stoked to see Dolphin potentially making strides in the right direction... now if only Citra would get their act together, especially now that the eShop is gone.

Having just played it for the first time a couple of weeks ago, Link's Awakening Remake is criminally low on this list.

I have a fun demo story from last week, actually. I've been on the fence with Metroid: Dread since its release, but I didn't know that it had a free demo until last week. The demo is only about 20-ish minutes long, but I accidentally did a sequence break (no idea how) and I got to play the first hour of the game. Those extra 40 minutes completely hooked me. Needless to say, I bought it that same night. Hahaha!!

I know most people didn't play this game, but Donkey Kong Jungle Beat, for me, is brilliant and criminally underrated. The level design is masterfully crafted, the boss battles were intense, and it was so much fun from start to finish. Most people passed this one because it used the drums, but my goodness, they missed out. What a game.
