Can't wait for both games! I'm more interested in Sonic Forces, since the Modern Sonic type of gameplay is my favorite, but I'm also excited for Mania! Looking forward to learning more about the third character, too!
I chose Sonic Transformed, Smash, and Hyrule Warriors. I would especially love to see Transformed on the Switch; it's a great racing game, just as good as Mario Kart, imo!
Quite disappointing for me since I'm not a fan of Fire Emblem... Then again, I've been disappointed with My Nintendo since, well... ever. I'm still hoping for physical rewards in the future, but for now I'll just be happy with some more themes and other non-app related rewards.
Of course Sonic Forces is my first choice! Splatoon 2 and Xenoblade Chronicles 2 were the other two games I picked, though I'm also looking forward to Mario Odyssey and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
Loved the first one. It would be awesome if Mario was in the sequel, along with Luigi, of course! Hopefully Sonic will make an appearance again, too! Looking forward to this!
Blue is one of my favorite colors (I wonder why...? ) but I certainly don't mind the red. Red is the color I think of when I think Nintendo; I like it!
Overall I'm excited for the Swtich. Nothing besides Zelda interests me enough to get one on launch day, though. So I'll be getting Zelda for the Wii U, and waiting for Mario Kart and Splatoon 2 to come out.
I'm glad that losing a Toad Rally doesn't affect the number of Toads you already collected for unlocking items. (Say you have 50 Green Toads, and lose 4; your Kingdom will have 46, but any item you want to unlock will still say 50/___).
I'm finding it pretty fun so far. I agree with a lot of other users saying the Tour mode is too short, though... At least the Toad Rally mode is longer and can offer a challenge! Working towards unlocking Luigi... and it's gonna take a while.
Yes!! Please be true! Sunshine and Luigi's Mansion are two of my top 5 favorite games! If it is true, then hopefully they'll add Double Dash and maybe a Gamecube Mario Party in the future, too!
I love this game! I just started playing this a few months ago, and I'm loving every minute of it! I'm getting towards the end (chapter 12 anytime)! I already know the ending though, but I still can't wait to do it myself!
This game has already turned out to be one of my favorite games of all time, for many reasons; all the lessons it has like described in the article, the story is great, the soundtrack is amazing, and I love the wide cast of characters and the many different environments to explore. The developers really made Mira feel completely unique, and super fun to explore.
As much as I love this game, though, I probably won't get it on the Switch (unless there's a lot of new content!). With a game this massive, playing it over again would take a long time! Also, I really don't want to go back to running everywhere after I got my Skell and the flight module! XD
I liked the video. What really stood out to me was the final enemy before the video ended. How it knew to stay back and avoid the bomb... awesome! It's nice to see that the enemies will be smart.
Also, I liked the ending: "There's something awesome right there! ...It's glowing!" XD
@luchacomics: Personally, I would start with Sonic Generations, to get a chance to play both play styles of Sonic (Classic and Modern), to determine which play style you prefer. Then if you like Generations enough to keep wanting to play Sonic games, you can buy Sonic games that use your preferred play style.
I would recommend avoiding any Sonic Boom title as your first Sonic game, though, mainly because the Boom series is a spin-off Sonic series, and they're not the best Sonic games...
If you end up preferring Classic Sonic, then I would say try the Classics! Sonic the Hedgehog, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, etc. are all really fun and great games!
If you end up preferring Modern Sonic, then I recommend the Wii U version of Sonic Lost World from the list. Neither version of Lost World play exactly like Modern Sonic in Generations, though (no boost gauge). If you really want to play another Sonic game like Modern Sonic in Generations, I recommend Sonic Unleashed. It's actually my favorite video game!
And regardless of which Sonic play style you prefer, Sonic Transformed is also really fun!
I wish a Sonic game made the list (Transformed, Lost World), but other than that, I say it's a pretty good list. Splatoon, MK8, M&S Rio, and XCX are my favorite Wii U games, so I'm glad all but one made the list!
The Wii U certainly isn't my favorite system, but I love a lot of it's games! (Splatoon, MK8, XCX, M&S Sochi, M&S Rio, etc.) Even when the Switch is released, I'll most likely continue to go back to a lot of these games.
The gamepad, on the other hand... I won't miss. Honestly, I think the concept itself is a good idea, but sadly, I don't think it was used to it's full potential. Only a few games come to mind that really utilized the gamepad. I will miss the gamepad for maps and inventory's, but that's about it.
Never thought this would happen! I'm willing to give this a try, though! I love the Rabbids! It's also nice to hear that some minor characters are going to be given a nice role in the game, but I still hope Luigi is playable! I hope Rayman will be in the game, too!
I really like this game! I still play daily, and have quite a good collection of badges now. I especially love the Luigi and Splatoon badges! I'm not tempted to buy plays from the sale, but I'll gladly take the two free plays!
The Wii U had a lot of great games! The system itself, though... not my favorite system, but it's still sad to see production end. Hopefully the Switch will do much better!
I won't be getting this since I'm not a big fan of Isabelle, but it's still nice to see another reward avaliable that's not a discount. Still waiting on a Luigi theme, Nintendo!
I hope they do something like this! I would get the Gamecube one. Maybe they could even do character designs, like the Mario character Wii Remotes? I would so get a Luigi themed one!!
These are cute, but since I'm not a big fan of Pikachu, I won't be getting these, even the Luigi one. (Wow, it's rare for me to type "won't be getting" and "Luigi" is the same sentence!) XD

Re: Nintendo Shows Off 2D Gameplay Footage From Sonic Forces

Re: Guide: Super Mario Run Tips And Tricks
I'm glad that losing a Toad Rally doesn't affect the number of Toads you already collected for unlocking items. (Say you have 50 Green Toads, and lose 4; your Kingdom will have 46, but any item you want to unlock will still say 50/___).

I'm finding it pretty fun so far. I agree with a lot of other users saying the Tour mode is too short, though... At least the Toad Rally mode is longer and can offer a challenge! Working towards unlocking Luigi... and it's gonna take a while.
Re: Preview: Running Wild in Super Mario Run
This looks pretty fun. I'll be sure to try it, and unlock Luigi as quickly as possible. XD
Re: Rumour: GameCube Virtual Console Coming To Nintendo Switch
Yes!! Please be true! Sunshine and Luigi's Mansion are two of my top 5 favorite games! If it is true, then hopefully they'll add Double Dash and maybe a Gamecube Mario Party in the future, too!
Re: Random: A Glimpse of the Days When a Super Mario 64 Tease Tormented Luigi Fans
Poor Luigi... At least he's in the DS version, which I prefer solely because Luigi is playable.
Re: Feature: Xenoblade Chronicles X - One Year Later
