@BrokenCiv Nintendo wants to sell Amiibo and give Amiibo owners something substantial for having one

@Henchdog OT2 is a far better game than OT1. Make sure to play it even if you don’t complete OT1.

Okay but why does everything look so tediously boring?

I was thinking how I’d like Game Boy Camera to come to NSO and that it would use the Switch App on your phone to function as the camera, although yes, it would still only show Game Boy Camera quality photos in the game. The game would be connected to the app to synchronise so that the game shows what you are taking a picture of with your phone in real time.

But if it never happens, no matter.

@swedetrap The Pokemon Company has apparently stated they don’t like the NSO’s save state and rewind features and think it would break the games and are concerned players would trade Pokemon then reload an earlier save state to duplicate the Pokemon.

@babybilly Nintendo still wants games to release in 2027 and later. Plus some games will never come to the service due to licensing and rights issues. No, they are not going to pay big money just to obtain the rights to release an old game on the service. Plus some publishers just aren’t interested in supporting the service.

I would ideally like a minimum of one game every week from any supported console so four games being released in one update is fine to me. A little frustrating that the update came almost a month after the previous update but still, November didn’t get overlooked after all.

I voted European because it reminds me of the box my original UK SNES came in.

I’ve been playing the Sega version this year and been enjoying it. I like Capcom and SNK but I won’t buy them at full price.

I believe big entertainment companies will be forcing AI produced content to be the new normal whether consumers accept it or not.

XBOX and XBOX 360 games on NSO please.

@TomSupreme we already have a lot of jobs replaced by machines. Even just using a computer is showing support for a world where humans are replaceable. Humans used to do the tasks that a computer can now do instantaneously.

I’d like a “Well excuuuuuse me, Princess” just once. They acknowledged the old 80s Mario cartoon in the Mario movie.

It’s a good remake but Octopath Traveller II is still the best of the HD 2D games.

@Moonvalley2006 none of those games are on the first ten confirmed releases. So no.

@Chimichanga Eternal Darkness wasn’t on the ten GC games that will be released first on NSO.

I had this but I didn’t play it much. I knew it wouldn’t be a typical Mario game but I had a lot of other games to play at the time and this just got neglected.

@westman98 I’m not saying that is what they would do, I’m saying it is what they should do. It’s all hypothetical and made up. In this scenario, the 3DS would be updated via the Switch online service, not by its own discontinued online service; which I even said would remain discontinued. When the 3DS is connected to the Switch, the Switch would send a save state of the game being played so that both Switch and 3DS would run the game simultaneously.

@WhiteUmbrella no, a troll would shoot down someone else’s ideas saying they were really stupid and terrible. Which one of us does that apply to?

@WhiteUmbrella Yes, the NSO is a paid subscription service. Games get added every so often. You’re just not going to get a library of games for free.

I’m going to assume you are against the entire concept of the NSO, you were telling me what I know the NSO to already be, so I will have to dismiss your accusation of it being a terrible idea.

If someone doesn’t have a Switch 2 then they don’t get to play DS games on the Switch 2.

In the top ten.

@WhiteUmbrella I said the NSO app downloaded to the 3DS can only play NSO DS and 3DS games when connected to the Switch. The 3DS serves as a controller for the Switch. Your other games are not part of the NSO service so cannot be played on Switch.

@KingMike you would download the games to an NSO app on the 3DS. The game screen would show the same on both Switch and 3DS simultaneously. The 3DS would act as the controller for the Switch. You would only be able to play the DS and 3DS games on 3DS when the 3DS is actively connected to the Switch.

@Drnsnsr are you somehow under the delusion that the 3DS didn’t sell well? Or that people trashed their 3DS?

My idea for DS and 3DS games is to have them be downloads to the 3DS. There would be not be a new screen to buy. You just download a NSO app to the 3DS to play DS and 3DS games which would also show on your docked or undocked Switch 2 screen. The 3DS would not be reissued though and the 3DS eshop would not be reopened. Nor can you play DS and 3DS cartridge or downloaded eShop games on Switch.

@SearchingS It’s to tie-in with the new Daima series of Dragon Ball started in 2024. It’s not a huge new revival.

@Zeebor15 they’re not working on the games in equal measures. This is just a small update.

@FrenchVaniIIuxe I think more people would have been happy if they worked their historical inaccuracies into the plot as being the meddling of an in-game fictional character. But no, they tried to pass their fictional retelling of history as being accurate to real life and argued with anyone who tried to convince them otherwise.

@Shiryu There’s no need for a sequel. Just keep adding characters to the game.

@Exerion76 I think Hamster charges too much for their Arcade Archives games. Some are reasonable but many are overpriced IMO.

@vio yes, but this is for casuals who don’t want to spend money on the NeoGeo games. I have a lot of NeoGeo games on Switch, not FF Special though. Waiting for a sale for that one.

@liljmoore Mega Man is in the new Sonic Racing game.

@Serpenterror I’ll play Bubsy on NSO but no way am I buying the collection or 4D.

@Mana_Knight The first world is pretty easy. Make sure to change mouse speed to fast. You may want to choose slow Peach to get used to the game. You need to react quickly and be accurate with clicking in later stages.

@hel105 for $15 for each GBA game. I strongly oppose that.

$15 for a game that should have been released on NSO.

@SillyG You’re experiencing seeing the artwork right now with your free to use eyes. You don’t need to be able to play the games to decide which of the two packaging art you prefer more.

I like the design for the Japanese robot more than the American robot.

Here are the list of first party games that Nintendo could release on NSO. I’m not including mainline Pokemon games as I know they won’t be released. I did include some games that have had remakes on Switch though.

Advance Wars
Game ‘n Watch Gallery 4
Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland
Donkey Kong Country
Advance Wars 2
Pokemon Pinball
Mario vs. Donkey Kong
Mario Golf: Advance Tour
Mario Pinball Land
Donkey Kong Country 2
Mario Party Advance
WarioWare Twisted
Yoshi Topsy-Turvy
DK: King of Swing
Donkey Kong Country 3
Dr. Mario / Puzzle League
Mario Tennis: Power Tour
Drill Dozer

@LastFootnote Then I researched and realized they’d already released all major first-party GBA games

Major yes, but there are still some first-party games not so major like Game n Watch Gallery 2, and Advance Wars.

So long, Doug Bowser!

@benmalsky198 I’m saying certain scenes felt like they went on for too long

I watched it once on launch day and had a good time. If you were to remove / ignore / be unaffected by all the references, it would not be a good movie. But as a Mario fan for the past 35 years, I was watching out for all the references. I wanted to laugh out loud at the inclusion of the Super Show theme tune.

BUT I also saw there were a lot of questionable decisions by the writers and casting directors. Maybe because it is that I’m now in my 40s but there were some scenes that felt pointless, empty or overly long. At worse, maybe a little mean spirited and out of character. Mario shouldn’t have to go through a training montage. Mario shouldn’t have to waste time dealing with a dog on a plumbing job. The actors shouldn’t just read the lines in their regular normal voice; they should put on a funny voice to match the character they are playing as. I feel like big name stars want the audience to recognise their voice in all new animation now instead of trying to give the character their own unique voice.

In the 70s, 80s and 90s voice actors would play many roles, sometimes even multiple characters in the same show and sound different for each of their characters. That’s how it should be. I didn’t get that with the Mario movie. So some of the voices sounded off to me. Although not big name stars, the actors of the original 80s and 90s Mario cartoons sounded better to me.

@Uberchu what about when it comes to Nintendo Switch Online expansion pass?

@mingyjongo the Switch 2 was just released a few months ago. There is nothing fleeting about the NSO.

@Andee not really. My life today is in continuity with my life when I was five years old. That’s the amount of effort I expect from fictional characters lives too.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Nintendo scraps the standard NSO pass and has the expansion pass as the only NSO pass.

@Joekun they’re selling an empty shell for $100. What makes you think they would sell a full working VB with almost all the games built-in for $100? They just wouldn’t. It would be $170+ at least.

I have expansion pass but I have no interest paying to hunch over with my head in a box to play the games. If they can be played on TV in 2D then I’ll be happy to play them all.

I’m happy that we are finally getting third-party GBA games. I hope other third-parties start supporting the NSO with their GBA games now. There are still some of Nintendo’s own GBA games I want added as well.

@Porky We have five years of Switch 2, the NSO is likely to carry over to the next console and if not, Nintendo will devise some other way to have their old games available to us.

Nobody’s blood should be boiling over not being able to play Virtual Boy.

@Boopero you also have to buy controllers to play N64 and GameCube games as the regular joycon does not have enough buttons
