@MathByThePixel : That would be nice but I feel like they're just gonna let today be like any other 'normal' day and not highlight the anniversary in some way, sadly.
Good choice, I personally would have gone with Kimiko Glenn but I'm sure Kristen Bell will be fine. She certainly has the experience and wide range needed to voice Amy imo.
I should also mention that this is, to my knowledge, the first time the Granblue Fantasy IP makes a full proper appearance on a Nintendo console. Before this, two of its characters appeared as guest fighters in a very silly fighting game for the Switch 1.
This was the only highlight for me in the Partner Direct. I honestly thought Cygames had thrown Relink to the side but not only did they prove me wrong, they're also bringing it to Switch 2!
"nasty-looking toy box you'd expect to pull out of a scary lake."
C'mon, you do know that is a baby crib right? I was a little kid the first time I encountered that DKC3 game over screen and even I could tell right away its a crib.
Anyway, hot take: Metroid Prime 3's two game overs (the 'normal' one and the 'Terminal Corruption' one) are underrated imo. I know most people considers them to be the weakest among the original Prime trilogy but I still find them very unsettling (in a good way) in their own right.
I find it funny that Legacy of Atlantis looks more like a re-imagining of the Anniversary version rather than the original TR game. Basically a re-imagining of a re-imagining lol.
The 'Crossover Ambitions' bit is hardly news. In terms of gaming IPs that are famous (on a worldwide scale) for their crossovers, Fortnite is arguably the biggest of them, has been for a long time now.
This probably would have blown my mind 6-7 years ago when the game was still new, now its just 🤷♂️.
I don't usually mind DLC (though it depends on the content and the base game of course), but this is a refreshing change especially in this industry nowadays.
I guess Nintendo is testing the waters with original content since they have their "Nintendo Pictures" studio and all. I wouldn't mind more shorts like this.

Re: Nightdive's 'SiN Reloaded' Remaster Is Heading To Switch 1 & 2 This Year
Lengthy delay indeed, last news I read about this was in 2020 when this remaster was just announced.-_-'
Seeing Elexis Sinclaire again will be a sight for sore eyes. She's one of the best underrated female villains ever imo.

The fact that Capcom actually got JAM Project on for a music theme is just wild on all levels.🤩
Re: Super Nintendo World Is Celebrating Its Fifth Anniversary In Style
Happy fifth anniversary Super Nintendo World.🎉
Re: Kirby Air Riders Dev Team Disbanding Soon, Game Updates Also Ending
I say it again; in this day and age, a complete game with the full package is a really refreshing pace of change. Mad respect Sakurai.
Re: A New Tomb Raider Entry Has Leaked Ahead Of The Game Awards
I find it funny that Legacy of Atlantis looks more like a re-imagining of the Anniversary version rather than the original TR game.
Basically a re-imagining of a re-imagining lol.
Re: Super Mario Galaxy Movie Gets A New Teaser Trailer At The Game Awards
My boi Luigi really pulled a "Falcon knee" here, respect.😆

It is indeed.

Re: Video: Here's Your First Look At The Street Fighter Live-Action Movie, Due Out 2026
It looks as very "not-taking-itself-seriously" dumb as I expected, which tbh is probably for the best.
Re: Mega Man Returns In 2027 With A "Brand-New Entry" For Switch And Switch 2
Welcome back blue bomber.

Wonderful news, more Wario is always welcome.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's N64 Library With Two Classic Platformers
Nice surprise for me, I forgot for the longest time there was another limbless protagonist besides Rayman at one point.
EDIT: Never mind my reply Zeebor15, I thought you wrote Thursday at first.
Re: Katsuhiro Harada Announces Departure From Bandai Namco
Another end of an era. Regardless of how one feels about Harada, the man did work hard all these years. I wish him well at whatever he will do next.
Re: Talking Point: Six Months Since Launch, How Would You Rate Switch 2?

Re: New 'Sonic Universe' Movie Spin-Off Announced For 2028
Shadow most likely.
Re: Feature: The Tightest, Briskest Mario & Luigi Game Turns 20 Today And Deserves More Love
Happy 20th anniversary Partners in Time. You may be my least favorite of the M&L titles but you are still a somewhat okay game.
Re: Nintendo To Acquire Bandai Namco Studios Singapore As A Subsidiary
Sounds like a decent enough acquisition. Not too surprising either considering the closeness between the two companies.
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting A Copy Of Rosalina's Storybook?
Nah, not worth it. Sorry.

Re: Random: Steam's Brand New Game Console Sure Looks Awfully Familiar
Sorry but this is just another "bit of a stretch" comparison. All I see is a black box.
Also, unrelated to the topic but that Steam Frame looks like it could be right up my alley as far as VR headsets goes.
Re: Super Mario Galaxy Movie Trailer Reveals Rosalina, Bowser Jr., And More
My scalp is ON FIRE!!!🔥🔥🔥 I can't wait enough for this movie.
Also, Movie Rosalina!!!❤️🔥
Re: Super Mario Galaxy Movie Nintendo Direct Announced For Wednesday, 12th November

Also, please give Luigi more screentime.
Re: Poll: What Do You Make Of The Mario Galaxy Movie's Leaked Yoshi Design?
Its fine, don't see the issue with it.
Re: Images Of Yoshi From 'The Super Mario Galaxy Movie' Have Leaked Online
Yoshi looks fine imo, they just made his pupils larger or something I think.

20 years!!! Had no idea you guys were around that long, happy anniversary and congrats!🎉🥳
Re: Nintendo UK's Holiday Switch 2 Ads Are Another Raye Of Sunshine
I only know Raye because of the Where is My Husband! song, never heard of her before that.
Re: Konami's Octopus Platformer Swims Onto Switch 2 Next Year, While Switch 1 Version Goes MIA
This caught my eye the first time it was announced earlier this year. Gives me vibes of Oddworld, Octodad, and Little Nightmares.
Re: Dragon Quest Creator Yuji Horii Has Been Awarded One Of Japan's Highest Honours
Read about this earlier on ANN.

Well deserved I must say.
@Pillowpants : It’s because Dragon Quest has a huge chokehold on Japan. It’s always been highly revered over there, even more than Mario.

Re: Sakurai Is Getting His Very Own Manga Biography
Guess its only a matter of time before the anime adaptation lol.
Re: Nintendo Goes Full Pixar In Strange New Animated Short Film, 'Close To You'
