The body type 1 and 2 stuff is so hilarious. How dehumanising.

Can't wait for this. If it didn't hack Jack Black as Steve though....

For the most part, I love 3D platformers. So I'll be picking this one up for sure. It's so much fun to explore the worlds.

The problem for palworld is some of the designs were almost complete copies of Pokemon, and they featured on the box art. Look at the Lucario ripoff, for example. I'm sure Nintendo will win on that alone, especially given the case is being held in a Japanese court: a jurisdiction with a wide remit for copyright law.

@Pillowpants My friend played the GBA games on NSO in preparation and really loved them.

Either there's some backwards compatibility, or the Switch 2 is not being announced this year. Why else would Nintendo announce so many OLED bundles for Christmas otherwise?

I love Limited Run. Some people cry about them due to things unrelated to their products, other people cry about things related to their products. But they sold me a Jurassic Park collection, so I'm obligated by honour to defend them to the end.

This definitely looks like too much fun for Nintendo.

Why would someone buy a PS5 Pro when they could buy a PC? It's 100x better. There's virtually no reason to have a PS5 unless you're desperate to play the one or two time-limited exclusives.

You have to chug your drink every time a farm sim is announced.

@Truegamer79 A lot of us have the money to burn on things like this though. So bring on the Switch 2 with a small collection of overpriced games I say.

@Smug43 Yeah, reminds me of some of the worst moments in Pokemon SV. How are games this old coming out so unoptimised for Switch? Do they just run them in an emulator and don't even bother to refactor the code?

Is a short cinematic meant to get people hyped? Where's the gameplay? They might as well not even bother to announce it.

Wow. If only the deluxe set was in stock in Europe instead of all over Ebay for 3x the price.

I love Spongebob platformer games! I'm on it

Saw this in the shop the other day, might have to pick it up. I love SMB! Just wish I had some friends who did too. It doesn't seem to be as popular as it was in the GC era...

@nala310 Indeed. I also feel like the quality of the system is good enough relative to the scale of foreseeable future computing enhancements that it could be a viable system for new indie style games for a long time to come yet.

I think the Switch is amazing personally. It could go on for another twenty years and I would still enjoy it. There are a lot of timeless games on there, like Stardew Valley. So I see no reason why it couldn't keep being successful, it would just craft a niche.

@Zuljaras Given it's the best selling game of all time, they are obviously just a loud and whiny minority. In reality, Minecraft is an amazing game that caters to almost any type of gamer.

This looks like a blast! I really loved the TMNT new-retro style game, so I'll have to get this too. The vibe is so similar!

Sonic Adventure 1/2 combo pack with an updated Chao garden!

CEX is 10x better than GAME because it has all the second hand stuff, including retro. GAME has nothing.

Not a fan of spoilers myself. It smacks of a lack of ethical integrity. I even get mad when media organisations spoil the heck out of a game after release with clickbait articles for every bit of it. I'll refuse to read them again. Nintendo Life is pretty good at not doing this thankfully <3

I feel like buying the game now just to support the studio. Woke can be insufferable sometimes, but it has it's heart in the right place. Detractors from it are basically just arguing for being a d...

@IceClimbersMain 15 would be considered very cheap where I live. Store brought pizzas are 7 Euros, ordering them is usually 20+.

I wonder why people leak stuff like this? What kind of kick do they get out of it? I know there are people without self-control who want to know, but it also ruins things for other people, the companies themselves become more secretive and at time I'm sure there's people who lose their jobs.

I got this on Switch and it's kind of fun, but the graphics are weird and the fan whirs like it does for no other game. I feel like I should have just gotten it on Steam instead. That said, it's worth getting on Switch if you do not have a PC and want to play a space based crafting/survival game.

Scarlet and Violet were the best Pokemon games yet in my view. They didn't run the best, and it could have been better. But I think it'll serve as a good base going forward. The freedom of running around in a big open world and searching for pokemon is unparalleled

Twitter has turned into a cesspit of hate and anti-western propaganda since being taken over by Elon. So I'm not surprised. What brand would want to be associated with that?

I had a blast playing these again on switch to be honest, the only bad thing was that it was remade by Aspyr and you can tell.

@d2k Good point. I loved the N64 as well, but it was a total failure that generation. I'm not sure personally the power means too much though, as if we want that we can go to PC. The reason I, and many others, go for Nintendo is their IP. If they started releasing Pokemon, Mario, DK etc on Steam then there's no way I'd buy a Nintendo console (for the reasons you mentioned).

The problem for Nintendo is it's hit or miss if their consoles will be supported or not. I don't want to buy something and it ends up like the Wii U. So unless they announce a Pokemon game for launch, I'll be holding off to see how successful it is.

No longer can people say it looks and runs like a Gamecube game

All the Aspyr titles suck. Have you tried to play Jedi Outcast 2 for example? It was great on PC, on Switch the controls are awful. You cannot aim properly and it's missing multiplayer. Then comes Jedi Knights, and they didn't even bother to sell what they advertised. Now comes the dud that was BF remake. You know they exist to take old IPs and churn out shovelware for a quick buck?

SA2B was by far the best sonic game for me, I was hopefully with Frontiers that it might be close and whilst it was on the right path, it felt more like a PC mod than a sonic game. They should just do a full-on remake of SA2B, and maybe SA too

Just buy it on Steam and play it with a connected Switch controller. It's only 13 Euros.

@Axecon I hope so, I was dead set on Jack Black being Steve.

Reboot camp was trash, he should be ashamed. Horrible graphics and lacking a proper multiplayer. Plus the map editor was terrible. How could they take a beloved game and make it bad?

Momoa is the lead!? What the hell...

By this point it seems like Nintendo has given up on 2024...

I couldn't care less what price a game is to be fair. If I like it, I will buy it. I'm not going to buy one and done microtransactions though. Keep that stuff out of non-free-to-play games.

@FragRed Why should they be illegal? People are under no obligation to accept a job with a zero-hours contract, and it's nice for those who want to work flexibly. Such as students or parents.

3rd party docks are also cheap as. They're nice if you like to switch the switch between televisions frequently.

I wanna be, the very best. The best there ever was. Except when it comes to offering customers what they want.

Couldn't recommend Skyrim on Switch more, we've all played it before but to me it feels at home on the console. It's great to just lay on the couch with the lights off playing it in handheld mode: recommend using a lite for that given it is lighter.

@Braneman Thanks, yeah. I might pick them up next time they're on sale for a Euro. Surely, you've seen the side-by-side comparisons too? The new version looks hardly any different...

I almost preordered this on Steam for the 10% discount, and I'm so glad that I didn't. I assumed it would get good reviews, but boy was I wrong. What a shocker.

I would just buy it for singleplayer, but the Steam reviews have put me off. I'll wait until it's on discount.

You can only get an acute subdural hematoma from a serious head injury... The poor guy, and his family.

I rated it excellent because I went in with low expectations but left with some hype for a few of the titles!

@SakuraHaruka It's a myth that GameFreak could develop a better game. You could give them a decade but they simply don't possess the skill. Look at Palworld, for example, it runs better and looks better and has more varied gameplay than any Pokemon game and it was made by 40 people who didn't know what they were doing.
