@Kiivi I agree! Worked for the later ds models which saw improvements etc but little change in design.

If this is to be an upgraded Switch, it’s better to be thinking of it as such rather than a whole new era of console.

This isn’t a leap from n64 to GameCube, it is very much a major upgrade.

Until the game is ready, You shall not pass!

I was really really hoping for a box set that matched links awakening

Hanging in there for a special edition that matches links awakening

This has to release on Bilbo’s birthday, I can’t see any other date being considered in terms of promotional gold.

I really hope there will be a physical edition with collectible bits 🤞🤞

@GrailUK apologies, I could have sworn I read it in an article here quite a while ago 🙈

@Scapetti it is coming to Nintendo. I can’t wait to play, hopefully it ports across well.

Ooh this looks like a nice wee puzzle platformer. Will be excited to try this one.

Tales of the Shire please and thank you.

Am I alone in hoping for a wee sneaky peaky at the Hobbit game?

@OldGamer999 if we get a wee bit more juice under the hood, backwards compatibility so i can keep my favourite games, and a wee screen upgrade I’ll be a day one switch (pun intended)

I’m so excited to see Rainbow Islands available! This was one of my absolute favourites in the Amiga 500 back in the day. Even just hearing the music in that video has been such a nostalgia trip.

Hmmm who played Lure of the Temptress? Possibly my first RPG adventure, would love a fresh revisit.

Fable 2 and 3 also fit this same nostalgic thread…

Now as far as Nintendo games, it has to be Ocarina of Time

This is why I prefer physical copies of my games. When it comes time, I’ll sell the switch and some games so I have enough to upgrade.

@Ryne-Gaia nope, it’s more along the lines of when my kids do something stupid… flat annoyance 🤣

Well I guess I can stop waiting for that now then, and just keep an eye out for a decent sale price 🫠

I’m still pretty old school, most of my games are on cart, and I will wait for a cart if there is a digi initial release.

It’s a no brainer for me, I feel I properly own the games, and when it comes to upgrade I can sell on hardware and software.

It’s an investment to own them in cart, it’s a gamble to be digi online.

@Link-Hero if weta are involved, then I’m hopeful.

If this turns out to be a LOTR life sim I will lose my tiny mind!!! I won’t need anything else ever. Okay that’s maybe a fib, but pretty close to being true! 🤞🤞🤞🤞

@Hwatt goes off to google what this means 👀

With that wee jokey bit about me not understand the tech speak (I don’t) I would just be happy to see an upgraded version that looks better, runs smoother, and can handle the newer titles.

@RupeeClock sounds very like it doesn’t it. I would be happy with that. I’ve got quite a nice library of games now, but it would be lovely to keep them, and be able to add higher spec ones to the mix.

I’ve been hanging on for the F2P… can’t stand the idea of paying for something that will be made free… 🤣 when is it due?

Looking forward to the hard copy release. It’s another one of the games that I missed out on while I was busy having babies 🤣

Ooohh this does interest me!

It’s also very nice of them to release this as a birthday present to me 😜

If they bring back rainbow islands I will lose my mind!!!! The sequel was mediocre in comparison, Rainbow Islands is was one of my favourite Amiga 500 games. 😍

Just when I loosen my grasp on it just a little, he goes and drags me back in!

The previous trailer had me a little worried about how ‘new’ this game was going to feel. This one has completely reassured me. This looks absolutely stunning. I’m beyond excited! Only a month left. EEK.

Owning my screaming narcissist ideals here. Always ALWAYS my name 👀😂

Who doesn’t want to be the hero of their own adventure?! 🤷‍♀️🤪

Devastated. Given his love of the games I’m kind of shocked he would walk away. I’m not a DC fab, most of the movies have been pretty awful, so to think he’s leaving for those… bums me out 🥲

@gcunit me too, however I couldn’t wait, and I will buy twice if I need to.

I have to say it will be worth it, so far I’m having a blast plundering this world again with old friends! 🥳

Dipped my toe in yesterday, and so far, so great! Hoping to sit and play a little more at lunch today. It’s like it was never away 🥳

When you try really hard to be edgy but just come off sounding full of yourself 👀

Would have been just as well saying ‘sorry, Nintendo and it’s fans just aren’t cool enough to play with us’ 😂

From the little that was shown, this game looks like it should be beautiful! Pikmin is one of my top five feel good games. So pleased to get 4 at last!

I’ll be diving straight in with complete abandon! I think it’s great that they are kicking off right where 2 ended, that makes me even more excited to see what they have done.

Also, I will ABSOLUTELY slap the cash down again if they release a cart version. 🤪

Normally I’m exclusively a cart girl…. But how can I resist. If they do not be up releasing a physical, then I might just have to buy it again 👀😂

It looks amazing, very much looking forward to its release

Weta’s involvement is very good news indeed. They were very dedicated to lore, detail and story for the films. I can’t wait to see where this leads.

I also don’t think that free reign means they will stray too far from the original content though. But I don’t see that as a bad thing.

I’ll be going in blind having never played any of the others. Wish me luck 😝

Ok xenoblade fans… I haven’t played any games from the franchise. Do you think I can just dive in here at number 3?

I need a good RPG hit while we wait for Zelda….

Genuinely gutted!!! This is the one game, apart from the new Zelda, that’s I’m champing at the bit to get my hands on!

Just bought a cart copy of rabbits, can’t wait for it to arrive tomorrow. I’ve missed those crazy critters

@stocko aw perfect thanks, I don’t mind the price so much when I’m getting a cart.

I absolutely want to try this. My two kids (grown ass men… 😂) love the show. But £50 is too much for me to justify right now. Is it only available as a download?

Aw if anybody wants to play with somebody who has put massive hours into the original, but who still fails to make it past winter… then shout hahaha

There’s something kind of exciting about the announcement in a way. It kind of hints at them having developed a few new ideas that’s they really don’t want to leave out.

That can only be a good thing in my opinion!

@John_Deacon it’s worth keeping your eyes peeled as the Lego franchises always seem to end up discounted so you may end up being able to pick up any add ons, super cheap.

I can’t wait! I feel the Lego games have been a bit lacking in recent years but this look like a return to form.

This is genius 🤣 sad we aren’t getting it elsewhere… the meme possibilities are endless

I’m excited to watch, not sure what I’m hoping for though!

Any Zelda news is good news, so I’ll take whatever they give me.

I feel the itch for a really good RPG. There’s a very large Skyrim and Witcher shaped hole in my life at the moment. Because of my job I’m pretty much exclusively playing games on switch alone, and I need me some rpg….

@Paraka I would be here for that too! I miss those games.
