MMO's can definitely be classified as addictive gaming. I strung together 20+ tweets talking about my addiction to WoW when I was younger and my former friend's terrible, ongoing addiction with TF2 and LoL.
MMO's never end, thus a person keeps playing them. Since everything keeps going while you're logged off, you always get that feeling that you need to constantly be playing to keep progressing.
That's why I refuse to touch an MMO. I love RPGs and JRPGs, but MMOs are off the table for me.
I never bought an SD card for my Switch, and i probably won't until the space starts running out or if I buy a game that I really want to play and it requires one.
Definitely downloading Shantae. I obtained the platinum trophy for it when it was released on the PS4 and will gladly double dip to help support the Shantae series and WayForward.

Re: The Games Industry Reacts To The White House's Violent Games Showreel
Nothing's going to happen to games in this country.
Trump will blab about it and the whole thing about violent games will fade away and life will go on.
Re: Super Smash Bros. For Switch Is Coming This Year, And It's Got Inklings
I'm so glad we're finally getting Inklings.
Re: Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy Is Finally Confirmed For Nintendo Switch
Definitely going to double dip for this.
Re: Video: Feast Your Eyes on Bayonetta 2 on Switch Compared to Wii U
@holygeez03 I went and watched a different gameplay clip of Bayo 2 on the Wii U and it looks just as vibrant as the Switch gameplay in this video.
Re: Video: Feast Your Eyes on Bayonetta 2 on Switch Compared to Wii U
To be honest, the only benefit the Switch version brings to the table is the improved load times.
Everything else seems to be the same.
Re: Video: A Speedrunner Has Completed Super Mario World In Under A Minute
It's like a TSA in sorts.
Re: Indie Dev Talks About Having Switch Proposals Turned Down By Nintendo Five Times
Yet Nintendo let tons of trash on the Wii U/3DS eShop.

Re: First 4 Figures Reveals Stunning Shovel Knight Collectibles
They have really generous payment plans, spanning from 3-12 months while splicing the payment up.
You don't have to lump $300 down at one time.
Unless you choose to, of course.
Re: Bayonetta 3 is In Development and is a Switch Exclusive
Color me surprised by this announcement.
Glad to see all three Bayo games on Switch.
Re: Random: Model Chrissy Teigen Rants About Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp's "Jerks"
NintendoLife loving all this site traffic on a satire article.
Re: Review: Super Mario Odyssey (Switch)
Great stuff. Can't wait for my copy to arrive tomorrow.
Re: Random: You Can 'Level Up Your Look' With Super Mario Bros. Beauty Products
Different for Nintendo, that's for sure.
Re: The Nintendo Creators Program Now Rules Out Live Streaming on YouTube
Ah well.
Re: The Inevitable SNES Classic Mini Hack Is Well Underway
Good.
Don't get me wrong, I love most of the games the SNES Classic has, but there are definitely a few I want that are missing.
Re: Deals: Got Your SNES Classic Mini? Then Check Out These Essential Accessories
I still can't believe I managed to walk into GameStop today and they told me they had two non preorder copies left.
This was after I went to Target and Shopko and was told they sold out since that morning. Walmart the night before.
Re: The Team Behind Switch DOOM Is Also Porting Rocket League To Nintendo's Console
Hey, uh, you guys know that the thumbnail and pic you used is from Doom 3?
You know, the Doom that was released around 15 years ago?
The one that's not being ported to Switch?
Re: Video: Here's What NBA 2K18 Looks Like on the Switch
Don't want to sound cynical, but the models in the Switch version of the game look PS2/GCN era, at best.
Re: Nintendo Takes Down Super Mario 64 Online Videos And Creator's Patreon
This was to be expected.
Thing is, if Nintendo does take the files down, at least I have it downloaded and on my computer, just like AM2R.
Re: Donkey Kong Country on SNES Gets the MSU1 Digital Audio Enhancement Treatment
I only watched the video for the underwater theme
I was not disappointed.
Re: Don't Pay Over The Odds For A SNES Classic Mini, Urges Reggie Fils-Aime
Reggie should be a comedian, because his statement is hilarious.
SNES Classic will be difficult to find, just like the NES Classic.
I'll eat my words if retail stores have it in stock in a few weeks on release.
Re: Fan-Made 'Super Mario 64 Online' Released
I'm downloading this fast before Nintendo takes it down.
Re: Fashionable Buddy Duos Can Now Purchase These Fetching Yooka-Laylee T-Shirts
They're nice, but I won't buy them. Don't like the design.
Re: Editorial: Mandatory Memory Cards for Switch Retail Games is a Messy Solution
I never bought an SD card for my Switch, and i probably won't until the space starts running out or if I buy a game that I really want to play and it requires one.
Just weird that games are starting to require it.
Re: Random: Ubisoft Shares a Quirky Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle Unboxing Video
Why couldn't we have had a Rabbids movie instead of Minions.
Re: Feature: A Long Journey Through Metroid Prime: Federation Force
If Nintendo released Federation Force closer to Samus Returns, I don't think it would've gotten as much flack as it received.
Fans were waiting for a new Metroid game after how many years, and getting a spin-off title was going to ruffle many feathers.
Re: Soapbox: The SNES Classic Edition Pre-Order Farce Proves Nintendo Hasn't Learned A Thing
That's Nintendo for you.
Re: AtGames Confirms Its SEGA Genesis Clone Systems to Roll Out Ahead of SNES Mini
At least these will be readily available compared to the SNES Mini.
Re: Splatoon 2's Next Splatfest Tackles A Challenging Choice Of Condiments
If it was Miracle Whip, I would choose it all day every day, but I only like Mayo on my Subway sandwiches.
So I'd go with Ketchup.
Re: Former Project M Devs Unveil Icons: Combat Arena; It Sure Looks Like Smash Bros
We'll see what happens this fall. Hard to make assumptions based on a single trailer.
Re: Oddworld Creator Lorne Lanning "Has No Faith" In Switch
@MsJubilee Slow news day, perhaps?
Re: The Metroid: Samus Returns Legacy Edition Looks Fabulous
Used to not getting the cool CEs.
Re: Reggie Fils-Aime Dismisses Threat To Switch From Microsoft's Xbox One X
I'm happy with my Switch/PC/PS4 combo. My Xbox One just sits and collects dust anyways.
Re: Video: Samus Fans Lose Their Minds at Metroid Prime 4 Reveal in Nintendo NY Store
Crazy how we're getting not one but two Metroid games.
Re: Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle Unveiled by Ubisoft at E3 2017
The game looks much better than I originally thought.
Guess it's the perfect example of don't judge a book by it's cover.
Re: Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle Pre-Order Bonuses, Collector's Edition and More Confirmed
The UK Ubisoft store is so much better than what we have in the US.
Re: Random: This €369.00 Zelda: Breath of the Wild Leather Jacket is Perfect for a Mid-Life Crisis
I own the Deus Ex Rider jacket from Musterbrand and it's a very nice piece of clothing, definitely worth the price.
I wouldn't buy this because it's a little too high priced for a jacket and I think it's ugly.
Re: Nintendo Download: 8th June (North America)
Definitely downloading Shantae. I obtained the platinum trophy for it when it was released on the PS4 and will gladly double dip to help support the Shantae series and WayForward.
Re: Poll: What Did You Think of the Pokémon Direct and Its Big Reveals?
Eh, I'm looking forward to Gold and Silver being released on the 3DS's VC. I don't have any interest in Ultra Sun and Moon and I'll wait on Pokken DX.
Re: Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 is Announced, But is Skipping Nintendo Switch and 3DS
Boy, Capcom sure made there decision on whether the Switch was worth developing for in a hurry. Street Fighter 2 was just released not long ago.
Re: Rumour: Artwork for Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle Posted Online
Yeeaa, I don't know.
Re: More Disappearances Prompt Marie to Recruit in the Squid Sister Stories Final Chapter
I'm very intrigued by how this story will play out in the game.
Re: New Splatoon 2 Switch Accessories And Hardware Bundle Announced
Looks like I'm finally going to buy a Pro Controlle when this drops.
Re: Video: Here’s the First Look at Splatoon 2’s Single Player Mode
Man, the music in the trailer has such an odd charm to it. I love it.
Can't wait for July 21st.
Re: Video: Street Fighter's Way Of The Hado Is A Hell Made Of Motion Controls
At least Capcom isn't trying to sell this minigame as a $40 standalone game.
That would not go over well.
Re: Video: Take a Look At Knuckles Gliding Through Flying Battery Zone in Sonic Mania
Good stuff, can't wait for this game.
Re: Shantae: Half-Genie Hero is Coming to Nintendo Switch
I platinumed the game on PS4 a few months ago, and I will gladly buy the Switch version to help support the Shantae series and WayForward.
Re: New Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Rewards Appear on My Nintendo in North America
Seeing this really makes me miss Club Nintendo.
Re: Masahiro Sakurai Compares Zelda: Breath Of The Wild And Horizon Zero Dawn
They're both fun games, but I enjoyed Horizon a little more than BotW.
Re: Lapras Surf Collection Now Available in Pokémon Center Range
The plush is pretty adorable.
