Hope that means options for INVERTING both X and Y axis on the camera controls...please

As a SCUBA diver, it really bothers me that both the octopus and pressure gauge are just dragging/dangling behind the diver and not in any way hooked on their BC. Also, who still uses an octopus when there are things like ScubaPro's Air2?

There is NO way this is accurate, esp with "Agent 47" being number 3? No way is that more iconic than many other options below that...and of course Mario is way more recognizable than Lara Croft, and always has been, even back in 1996!

Not about to install an IHOP app and go to IHOP just for a costume, but that's a random promotion

Maybe this is how the Switch 2 dock will work, and be slightly nicer when it comes to cable management...not that it's a big deal, you can route the cables either out the side or the top now...

Sweet, now if only they'd add in some of the old themes from past cups...

Can you invert both X and Y camera axis?

Of all the things, what I really wish the Switch OS had was a way to trigger an "UPDATE ALL" process that would go through and download updates for EVERYTHING that had an available update. This could even just be a function added to the eshop app I guess, but it's annoying that it only really auto-updates the top 10 most recent games, and beyond that you'd have to go through and manually check/update things to pull the new version.

Well, it's "out for delivery" so I should get it today

Just finally popped this into my Switch to get excited for the new movie (Frozen Empire) and am so upset that they let you invert the Y-axis for both camera and proton pack controls, but NOT the x-axis! This is really bothering me, who wants to only invert Y and not also X? I wish there was the option because I keep spinning around and turning in the wrong directions. Sadly even the built in Switch button mapping options do not let you manually invert stick axis

No motion controls is unfortunate, but really, the thing I miss when using pretty much ANY third party Switch controller is the lack of HD Rumble! Why didn't Nintendo license that out to anyone??!

Wish I could wishlist this on the eshop to remember it for when it releases...

Shame they couldn't get proper 60fps support like the M2 ports of OutRun on 3DS which also featured 3D visuals and other screen sizes

No kidding...also building in hard bosses at the END of each stage with no way to bypass them made it frustrating. I got to the first stage of world 3 and couldn't beat the boss sequence, so I gave up and moved onto Mario Wonder...never to go back.

Nice, then I can buy it again and have all 3 on my Switch...totally worth it

"Wishlist Now!" cept it's still NOT listed on the eshop... I've had a tab open with the search since I first read about this game, and reload it in hopes the listing will appear and I can finally wishlist it for later. It would really benefit all game developers if they'd get the listings on the eshop ahead of even having a release date for wishlist purposes.

Yay, finally a NEW Monkey Ball game, can't wait!

Can you re-map the controls? I feel like A for jump is gonna mess with my brain

Ugh, not a delay if everyone just invented the initial rumor...

This looks great, pretty amusing that it's a real NES game, but then they did an HD-remaster on it too...not sure which version I'd want to play now.

Hard to top the Link's Awakening remake on Switch

Okay, deal, I'll cancel my Amazon preorder and change it to Best Buy to get the cute acrylic stand, like they gave out with Sonic Superstars. I miss Best Buy giving out plushies with each new Disney movie release though...and soon I guess I'll miss them selling physical media at all.

I imagine it'll be OLED and hopefully 1080p at least, and that rumors are just that.

And it's not even April 1st...

Nope, no, see, I subscribe to Nintendo Online with the Expansion, and it's so annoying how the first time you launch each of the emulation apps it checks online for your subscription, limiting where and when you can play them if you haven't in the past week! It's nice we get all these games included, but the online requirements get to be annoying, especially on a portable console I often play on my commutes without any internet. Same goes for the Mario Kart DLC, which I'm tempted to buy outright just so my Mario Kart 8 doesn't also have to dial in and check every week before it launches. It's much better to own the game, especially physically, and have it work fully offline. Then I can share it with friends or family too.

Bring back Charles Martinet's Mario in Real Time, which somehow was a better demo than this...even if it was from like 1991

Yay, I've been wanting to pickup We Love Katamari REROLL + Royal Reverie Special Edition! Also Jackbox 10 might be fun before the holidays...

Looks better than it did on PS4/360 though, so you also have to compare with how this game has always looked and ran in the past... dropped frames might be the engine too

Maybe boss fights should be separate stages AFTER each level instead of tacked on the end of the level, so we could skip them or at least, just retry them without having to go through the entire level. Really, that's when I stopped playing, I got stuck on maybe the second boss in the game, tried for 2 days, and then moved onto Mario Wonder and haven't gone back...

I've almost never used the YouTube or Hulu apps on Switch now, but I do see the appeal of having decent, modern streaming apps on there, especially when I take the Switch with me on a trip and hook it up to a hotel/airbnb TV.

As I say at every new cup announcement, are they ever going to add previous themes into the in-app store for those of us who missed a few previous ones?

I'm really enjoying this game, and am up to the lava section, but have no idea what a "heart point" is, I guess because I've only been playing offline? Anyway, shows you the way games should be released, mostly perfect the first time.

I'm the oldest of three brothers, and while my younger brother has a Switch of his own, our middle brother does not, so I'd pass it onto him along with some of my physical games I've already beaten. But it would be great if current games transferred over and even if the carts still worked as I haven't necessarily played/beaten all of them! Would be EVEN nicer if it could output even old games at 4k or something with patches/updates

But can it turn on the Switch from sleep mode? Are the joysticks Hall-effect? Also, why hasn't Nintendo ever licensed out or allowed anyone else to make controllers with HDRumble?

I love WarioWare games, but am turned off by requirement to use joycons and motion controls, like WarioWare Move-It, especially since I don't actually own any other joycons cept the ones that are attached to my Switch all the time, so makes this less appealing as I can't play multiplayer either without buying more joycons

Since this is by the developers of Rime who NEVER updated the Switch version or added the ability to invert camera controls on both axis, I'll ask this important question: Can you invert camera controls for both Y and X axis in this title?

Wouldn't an N64 Classic that actually rendered games at 1080p or 4K blow this out of the water?

How does one pick between new Sonic and Mario games both coming out next week?! Or really, how does one find the time!

I'd totally play that if it was an unlockable or bonus for beating the game...

It doesn't need to, but if it did, I'd sell or pass my Switch down to my brothers or daughter for them to enjoy, while if it's not backwards compatible, I'd keep it around for all those games I bought and haven't gotten to yet... might also make me less likely to buy as much digitally next time around.

I LOVED Horizon Chase Turbo on Switch, and have been fully enjoying Horizon Chase 2 on Switch as well, despite a few lil hiccups, as mentioned here. I will say the developers are already aware of the button prompt bug as well as performance issues and have already promised patches are on the way. Considering how well they supported and kept updating Horizon Chase Turbo before this, I'm more than happy with my early purchase and I expect to only improve with time. The game is very fun and reminds me of early Need for Speed (1 and 2) titles and other 3D racers from the 90s, and with a fantastic soundtrack to boot!

STILL haven't added most of the past few themes into the shop to buy with coins if you missed the tournaments :-

Twitter link won't load for me, shocker...was there a photo of this franken-console?

Ah, now I can vote for Horizon Chase 2, which I've been enjoying on my commutes this week!

Hardly a fair comparison, esp with how good it looks on the native 3DS system in 3D. I loved this game, but again don't feel the need to revisit when I never beat the 3rd yet

Niiice, I just finished Me and the Professor, and loved it, will keep an eye out for this release!

No mention of Horizon Chase 2, which also launched this week and was a day-1 buy for me after enjoying Horizon Chase Turbo. Also, what about F-Zero 99?!

There are so many games on my list to buy right now, but this one is a day-one instabuy after how much fun I had playing through the first game.

@AG_Awesome I think this is why I never kept playing too, hopefully for Switch they have better camera/control options to allow for inverting BOTH axis if that's how we roll

Developers got differently-colored Gamecubes? That's what I'm learning from this...
