Pre-ordered it the day after the trailer came out last month! Super excited for it, even though I played the original on Wii U. Would definitely give it a glowing recommendation to anyone who hasn't played it. And Bowser's Fury looks like tons of fun. Friday can't come soon enough!
I've lost all hope in Pokemon Rumble since Rumble U. If they can find a way to breathe new life into this series, than good on them. And no, a free-to-start game won't help.
I'm an avid Pokemon card collector, I have been for years. But I'm not selling them, not now at least. Who knows? Maybe I might not even need a job in the future.
I dunno why, but this doesn't seem like the best of ideas. I know it likely won't affect the games too much, but I don't trust companies that fall under the general "entertainment" umbrella to be that great at making games.
To be honest, I don't care too much as to how long it takes. So long as it's good. And to those who are complaining about this, would you rather have another Duke Nukem Forever on your hands?

What's interesting is that Captain Toad Treasure Tracker (a game that can basically be seen as a prequel to 3D World, given it's ending) has vegetables in it, as well as Shy Guys, which I don't think appear in any other 3D Mario game. But then, you can't really call that the spiritual successor to SMB2 because... well, you can't jump.
Man, what is it with Nintendo and street dates? This would be fine if this was an era without the internet, but now spoiling games is all too easy. And I'm not pretending like this only happens to Nintendo, but it seems to happen with just about every major title they put out.
They should make a game show with nothing but gaming related questions, and the contestants should not be gamers in the slightest. It’d be sad, but hilarious as hilarious csn be.
Honestly, I'm not gonna get my hopes up in the slightest. If we get one, that's great. But I'm not going to get hyped only for it to all be for naught.
If this rumor happens to be true, then I am happily skipping these games. The catching mechanics is the sole reason I skipped the Lets Go games. It made it feel very uninvolved to me. Surely, Game Freak wouldn't be this tone deaf.
As somebody who has autism myself, I can't stress enough how heartwarming this is to read. I'm incredibly lucky that I'm able to hold a controller in my hands with ease- I know it could be far worse.
Video games, as both a medium and a hobby, should be accessible to all, above all else. I really hope that this conversation only grows, because disabilities should never prevent somebody from pursuing a passion for gaming. Good on you, BBC.
This has got to be one of the most hilarious, yet genius crossover ideas I have ever seen. A worthy competitor to Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare x Aquafina.
Man, that's a real shame. I remember myself actually being excited about this back when it was revealed, but seeing it in this state, I don't know how I didn't notice these things when it was first shown off.
I would echo what others are saying about the fact that this should be delayed. I just don't know how willing Square would be to do that. A shame too- this game deserves better.
Good list, but, in my opinion, there is no way Dreamland 3 and Squeak Squad are better than Star Allies, unless the lower framerate is reason enough for you to put it there, which I don't think it is.
Squeak Squad is depressingly safe, and I actually think Dreamland 3 looks pretty bad for a SNES game, and it's so much more barebones than Super Star. I think comparing it to Yoshi's Island is laughable.
I just pleasantly surprised that Nintendo has multiple games here. We had two consoles release this week. And look at the games above Nintendo’s. This is nothing to be ashamed of.

Re: Pokémon Unite Gets Development Update And Beta Test Announcement
Brawl Stars had a Canadian beta, and that turned out great! Made me proud to be a Canadian!
This? I have no such faith.

I thought is was impossible...
LETS GO!
Re: Layoffs Hit Peter Molyneux's Studio 22cans
I have never heard of this man.
But he sure sounds... interesting, to say the least.
Re: Random: Fan Reimagines Pokémon Sword And Shield As Game Boy Games
I always found Pokemon spritework to be amazing, especially in the DS games. 3D is nice, but I'll always treasure the sprites most of all.
Re: Save Up To 87% In Arc System Works' Switch Sale (North America)
The only reason I was attracted to Blazblue: Cross Tag Battle was because of RWBY representation in it. And Teddie, too.
Re: Random: This Suggestive Bridge Made It To The Switch Version Of Super Mario 3D World
See, even Mario can have innuendos if you look close enough!

Re: Review: Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury - A Superb Mario Adventure With A Bowser Bonus
Not like I needed a review like this to make me decision for me.
But great pun in the subtitle. You know you couldn't make a 3D World review without a cat pun.
Re: Smash Bros. Ultimate's Sharpening Its Claws For Its Next Spirit Board Event
How fitting that this event begins on the very day that 3D World comes out.
A pretty clawsome coincidence, if you ask me.
Re: Former Nintendo Employee Howard Phillips Is Launching A "Tell-All" Book About The Company
Hey, I remember seeing this guy in Nintendo Power! Love the throwback to the magazine's first issue in the cover art.
Re: Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time Hits Nintendo Switch This March
Hype! I have no other means of playing it, and I’ve been aching to play it since it was announced last year! Can’t wait!
Re: Video: Nintendo Shares Bowser’s Fury Co-Op Gameplay Footage Ahead Of This Week's Launch

Re: The ESA Confirms New Details About Its Upcoming All-Digital, Three-Day E3 Event
Well, ain't that some stuff?
I'm honestly surprised that this is happening. And so begins all the rabid speculation as to what Nintendo will do. Yippee...
Re: You Can Now Buy A Gigantamax Meowth Plush, And It's Over Five Feet Long
Man, Pokemon sure loves to make super expensive plushies.
Reminds me of all of those "are you making a good choice?" memes.
Re: Pokémon Rumble Developer Ambrella Has Been Acquired And Dissolved By Creatures Inc.
I've lost all hope in Pokemon Rumble since Rumble U. If they can find a way to breathe new life into this series, than good on them. And no, a free-to-start game won't help.

Whoever came up with the subtitle for this article is a genius.
Re: Bandai Namco Appoints New President, Will Begin Division Restructure This April
I dunno why, but this doesn't seem like the best of ideas. I know it likely won't affect the games too much, but I don't trust companies that fall under the general "entertainment" umbrella to be that great at making games.
Make Pac-Man great again.
Re: Platinum Seems To Have Explained Why It's So Quiet About Bayonetta 3

Re: The First Review For Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury Is Now In
Yeah, I usually don't trust Famitsu. I pre-ordered the game after the trailer last month, I didn't need convincing.
Re: Random: People Are Making Really Awful Fart Remixes Of Mario Music On TikTok
Ah TikTok.... Leave it to them to ruin anything.
Re: Video: 10 Times Nintendo Characters Appeared In Third-Party Games
@Ephralance They also appeared in Mario Sports Mix, I believe.
I remember how delightfully hilarious it was to see Nintendo costumes on Tekken characters.
Re: New US Switch TV Ads Show Off Mario Party And Clubhouse Games
@Dpullam Same here! Nintendo, Super Mario Party is fun, but 4 boards can only entertain one for so long. Give us a new one, you know you want to!
Re: Random: Pokémon And Animal Crossing Both Featured On Jeopardy
They should make a game show with nothing but gaming related questions, and the contestants should not be gamers in the slightest. It’d be sad, but hilarious as hilarious csn be.
Re: Video: Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury Treated To Two New Commercials
Y’know, seeing an ad that’s kinda like a Wii U ad is oddly nostalgic in a twisted sort of way.
Re: Nintendo Of America Job Listing Offers Hope That Nintendo Directs Aren't Dead After All
Honestly, I'm not gonna get my hopes up in the slightest. If we get one, that's great. But I'm not going to get hyped only for it to all be for naught.
Re: Here's Why The Cover To F-Zero Is So Special
Ah, Japanese box art vs. American box art. Japanese usually looks nicer and features less angry Kirbys.
Re: Poll: What's The Best 2D Mario Game?
Super Mario World is my pick, barely beating out SMB3. Mario Maker 2 is pretty good, too, as is NSMBWii.
Re: A 2019 Rumour About Gen IV Pokémon Remakes Might Be Coming True
If this rumor happens to be true, then I am happily skipping these games. The catching mechanics is the sole reason I skipped the Lets Go games. It made it feel very uninvolved to me. Surely, Game Freak wouldn't be this tone deaf.
Re: Can You Name All This Nintendo Hardware?
Wow, 10/20. Easily the hardest quiz I've done on this site.
Amazing how little I know about the hardware I play my games on. XD
Re: Random: Twitch Streamer Takes On Super Mario World Using Voice Commands Only
Just imagine a Mario game made from the ground up with this gimmick in mind.
I mean, they had some mic minigames in the Gamecube Mario Party games. XD
Re: You Could Win This "Custom-Skinned" Funimation Nintendo Switch Console
Well, that sure is a custom design.
Makes the Mario Switch look infinitely inferior.
Re: Rocket League Celebrates The Super Bowl With New Gridiron Game Mode
Man, I've never been able to pull myself back in since Epic Games bought Psyonix. I despise Epic. But cool idea.
Also, go Bucs.

Re: Review: Fuser - A Flawed, Dorky And Often Brilliant Music Game
Man, this looks like a game you’d see on the Wii. And there’s lag? Are we sure this isn’t a lost Wii shovelware game?
