@AllBLK yes, Lego is greedy but I know for a fact from a friend of a friend that Nintendo's asking fee to use their IP's costs Lego more than Disney's.
Which is insane when you think how many more Disney sets there are compared to Nintendo. I'm sure a big reason for the prices is Nintendo.
@LastFootnote Oh yes. Stupid Nintendo. Selling millions and millions of units in months. Us anonymous nobodies on the internet know soooooooooo much better.
Maybe because I've read actual comics for more than a decade this is literally the most overrated trash I can think of this year. It's nothing new in the slightest, nor is it done that well.
Nintendo is all about Synergy these days so I'm sure a new Zelda game will appear close to or around the date of the movie releasing. Or an announcement of a new game in production at the very least.
@HammerGalladeBro Hot Wheels scalpers are just as bad. They literally pull a pallet apart, making a mess and a trip hazard to get to the boxes first. I've called security on them numerous times.
Kinda sick of the revisionist history regarding Rare. By the time Microsoft brought them they were a shadow of their former selfs, Nintendo values talent above all else and that had mostly left by then.
@helbertpina Knowing Sega they'll be asking "how much?" and even if Nintendo said they'd do it for nothing so it was the same level as the other consoles they'd still say no.
It's one of those rare rare RARE games I played as a kid, as a teen and now into adulthood I see no reason why I won't pick it up every now and then till the day I die.

Re: Pokémon Lego Sets Are Already Being Sold On eBay For Stupid Money
@tsim21 Nothing is going to hit the museum because scalpers don't want the XL cards.
Re: GameStop Kicks Off 2026 By Reportedly Shutting "Hundreds" Of Stores
Thankfully unlike the USA, New Zealand is a civilised democracy and Game Stop can't just go and shut all the stores overnight.
Re: Site News: Please Welcome Mai, The Newest Member Of Our YouTube Team
Mai Ladyman is like a James Bond level pun name. Hopefully highschool wasn't too cruel with a name like that.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Mario Power Tennis (GameCube)
Not a difficult decision.
Re: Opinion: The Nintendo Console Nobody Wanted To Review Returns Soon, And I'm Here For It, Again
Stop trying to make Fetch happen, it's not going to happen.
Re: Pokémon Developer Game Freak To Reveal More About 'Beast Of Reincarnation' Later This Month
@Dimjimmer They answer to nobody, not even Nintendo and that's always been the problem. Who's going to force them to do better?
Re: Nintendo Denies Using AI Images In New 'My Mario' Marketing
@StAmbrosius That's slander.
If Nintendo cared about some nobody's opinion.
Re: Nintendo Accused Of Using AI Images In New 'My Mario' Marketing
It's a thumb. Who gives a damn.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch 2's GameCube Library With Another Game
Very nice. Surely nobody can complain about this one.
Re: Japanese Charts: Pokémon Legends Z-A Surpasses 1 Million Sales On Switch 2
@Tyranexx Me too. It's refreshing to see no sporting games which is basically the same released ever year.
Re: The Natural History Museum's Upcoming Pokémon Merch Is All About 'Pokécology'
@Daniel36 They clearly have. Virtual nobody wants the jumbo cards.
Re: Mini Review: Cast N Chill - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition - Come For The Fishing, Stay For The Fin-tastic Vibes
@canaryfarmer Trust me when I say there is no "youth" here. I'd be surprised if there's anyone under 25 tbh.
Re: London's Pop-Up Pokémon Center Officially Reopens In February 2026
There have been far better limited edition Pikachus, it's giving "Malibu Stacey but she's wearing a new hat" vibes.
Re: Lego Is Launching An Evolutionary 2x4 Smart Brick Featuring A Tiny Computer
@premko1 Money money money.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition
I don't understand the "representative of the game" argument. All that info is what the back cover is for.
The front is meant to catch your eye, not explicitly explain the game.
Re: Poll: So, Now The Dust Has Settled, How Did You Find Myles MacKenzie?
He should of died. Highly annoying character.
Re: Pokémon Kicks Off 30th Anniversary Celebrations With Animated Logo Reveal
There's no way Game Freak will give us the older games in NSO.
Like Nintendo hasn't asked for years for it to be on the OG Switch.
Re: Video: It's Time To Say Goodbye To The Lovely Felix-From-Nintendo-Life
😔 Um. Can I be honest? All my favourite people have left. I'll be here less often. Really don't like some of the "reporting" of the others remaining.
Re: Talking Point: Our 2026 Nintendo And Switch 2 Predictions
Everything will be overshadowed by Pokémon's anniversary, even Zelda's celebration to some extent. Metroid? Metroid who?
Re: Pikmin 3 Deluxe Nintendo Switch 2 Rating Pops Up Online
@SillyG Thanks, but I'm not paying Nintendo prices. I mean like JB or Big W prices, hell even EB is cheaper than Nintendo.
Re: Pikmin 3 Deluxe Nintendo Switch 2 Rating Pops Up Online
I don't know if other countries have the same problem but in Australia Pikmin 3 new or used is actually hard to find sometimes.

Re: Nintendo Music Revives A Wii Banger In Final Update Of 2025
Curse you for putting the Vengaboys in my head.
Re: Switch 2's Mario Kart World Bundle Has Apparently Reached The End Of Its Lifecycle
@LastFootnote Oh yes. Stupid Nintendo. Selling millions and millions of units in months. Us anonymous nobodies on the internet know soooooooooo much better.
Re: Opinion: Who Needs Link? This Top-Down Metroidvania Is The Best Zelda Game Of 2025
I need Zelda, not whatever the hell this Temu junk is.
Re: Beloved Superhero Comedy Dispatch Is Flying Onto Switch 2 Next Year
Maybe because I've read actual comics for more than a decade this is literally the most overrated trash I can think of this year. It's nothing new in the slightest, nor is it done that well.
Re: The US Suffered Its Worst November Since 1995 In Terms Of Hardware Sales
We all know why, and it's not just consoles and the gaming industry.
I also have zero sympathy, people were told awful things would happen if he who shall not be named was elected again.
Re: Monolith Soft Releases Interview Celebrating Its Work On The Zelda Series
Nintendo is all about Synergy these days so I'm sure a new Zelda game will appear close to or around the date of the movie releasing. Or an announcement of a new game in production at the very least.
Re: Mortal Kombat: Legacy Kollection Switch 1 & 2 Physical Release Does Not Include Mortal Kombat 4 On The Game Card
@ArcadeSixties Oh yes, PlayStation fanbois are never cringe and never give the whole gaming fandom a bad reputation 🙄
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Mega Man 6
It's trivial but I HATE the shape of his mouth on the NA cover.
Re: Video: Pragmata Hands-On Impressions Shared By Capcom
Capcom seems in love with the Switch 2. Like a lot.
Re: Review: Pokémon Legends: Z-A: Mega Dimension (Switch 2) - Repetition Takes The Shine Off
Complaining about grinding and repetitiveness in a Pokemon game is like living in London and complaining about the weather. YOU SIGNED UP FOR THIS!
Re: The Game Awards GOTY For 2025 Is Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
Another year that I question why Nintendo Life and others cover this sham of an awards.
Re: Pokémon TCG Pocket's Upcoming Expansion Shows The OG Starters Some Love
Oh good. I'm almost done with this latest set expected for some art rares.
Opening every single day means I've been slowly getting everything.
Re: Hades 2 Dev Shares Adorable GOTY Nominee Artwork Ahead Of The Game Awards
Hopefully the trailers will be surprising, cause the awards sure as hell won't be.
Re: Random: Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour Wins GameStop's "Worst Game Of The Year" Award
LOL who actually cares about Gamestops's tainted opinion? it's like Dracula having an awards for hospital blood banks.
Re: "My Staff Have Had Customers Threatening To Rip Their Heads Off" - Retailers And Collectors Tell Of Pokémon TCG Woes
@HammerGalladeBro Hot Wheels scalpers are just as bad. They literally pull a pallet apart, making a mess and a trip hazard to get to the boxes first. I've called security on them numerous times.

@Truegamer79 Obvious troll is obvious.
Re: Digital Foundry Delivers A Tech Analysis Of Assassin's Creed Shadows On Switch 2
@kal_el_07241 because Digital Foundry has extreme Nintendo bias and can't be trusted for a second.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Metroid Prime 4: Beyond
Not a good sign if Giant Bomb likes it.
Re: New 'Sonic Universe' Movie Spin-Off Announced For 2028
No Carrey, no watch.
Re: Random: "Splendid Game" - Shigeru Miyamoto Was A Fan Of Banjo-Tooie
Kinda sick of the revisionist history regarding Rare. By the time Microsoft brought them they were a shadow of their former selfs, Nintendo values talent above all else and that had mostly left by then.
Re: Jennifer Hale Says She Was "Thrown Under The Bus" Amid Bayonetta 3 Casting Controversy
I'm kinda tempted to go back and look at some of the comments because it was really bad, even here.
Re: Reminder: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Is Available With A Switch Game Voucher
Screams of desperation for it to sell considering they are ending the tickets.
Re: Metroid Prime 4: Beyond - Meet The Team
Hopefully some die. I'm not kidding, it would add emotion to a pretty barren series.
Re: Feature: The Tightest, Briskest Mario & Luigi Game Turns 20 Today And Deserves More Love
I think its overrated to be completely honest.
Re: PSA: NES Classics Have Had A CRT Filter Overhaul In Latest Switch Online Update
@helbertpina Knowing Sega they'll be asking "how much?" and even if Nintendo said they'd do it for nothing so it was the same level as the other consoles they'd still say no.
Re: Review: Plants vs. Zombies: Replanted (Switch 2) - An Imperfect Specimen, But Still Bloomin' Good
It's one of those rare rare RARE games I played as a kid, as a teen and now into adulthood I see no reason why I won't pick it up every now and then till the day I die.
Not even the stench of EA can destroy it.
