I like it, it actually feels like it belongs to the game, if that makes sense.

I'll still be using my OLED with its Nexigo Gripcon (gen2) regardless, besides as I only play in handheld it will save wear and tear on switch2. Breath and tears will be switch 2 though

Some nostalgia with Frantic Freddie and Alice in Videoland and possibly finishing last couple of comets with Luigi run on Galaxy

They did the same with the PS5 and no one minded, feels like every opportunity to have a dig and complain about the switch2 even if its unwarranted is being jumped on. Its clearly just to stop people playing before launch day, no issue there and its no different than if you download a game early, you have to wait till the release date. This should be an exciting time, I mean its the new Nintendo console guys, how can you not be hyped?? I really hope all this negativity passes soon and we can read comments and perspectives that arent just so downbeat

Utterly incredible game, I lost soooo many hours in this when it was released

The amount people saying they are playing Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom on this since the announcement of the Switch 2 editions has really had a dramatic drop each week

I was back and forth on wiiu release date, 2014 for sure no 2015, no 2014, so it was a guess and thankfully right. The total galaxies was a bit of a guess too, I knew it was about 50 but 55 seemed too much and lastly that first question, I sat there staring thinking aren't they all in it? I knew the other 3 for sure, but thought I remembered bee mario in it, but given there had to be one that wasnt it was obviously not so

Beautiful boxes, really impressed. Sadly got no interest in the games as I have played both and done with them, but definitely a company to watch for future releases

I love that Sega arcade style games still sound like they come from the 90's, the voice, the music, you hear it and just know its Sega

I have yet to download the updates, I tend to hold off on larger updates just in case. Sounds like it should be fine to do so now, but maybe I'll wait a couple more days

1080 avalanche to this day is my favourite snowboarding game. I truly hope they bring back the series, although, it seems mario kart world is trying to take care of that with the tricks etc

The system price is fair, a lot of tech and as have been said, its a premium feeling device. The games it was going to happen at some point soon and whilst other companies may try to abuse it, I believe wallets should be judge of that. With Nintendo, we see a company that has to appease shareholders, invest for the future to continue making fantastic games etc and most importantly, take care of their staff, which Nintendo do better then everyone else in the industry. I would love cheaper games, but there are so many factors, aside from those i've mentioned and unfortunately it simply is what it is and we just have to be more careful on game selection, which is no bad thing really, we all have crap we shouldn't of supported encouraging more of it to be produced.

Can I get a hug from Shigeru Miyamoto??

My favourite standard 3D Zelda, of course I'd buy it!!! Would like them to calm down the bloom effect as that was the only negative, all the other QOL features really helped the game raise the game.

So glad he's documenting this, would hate to miss out on the taxi that drove past or the pigeon that pooped next to him. Exciting times........

T239, its a bit concerning that we are getting ever closer to T800

Wario seems to have upset Nintendo, they pushed him as far away from the rest of the gang as possible. I really like both of Switch 2 box art, but DK takes the edge, the bold black works well with the red and the energetic picture and title font all looks great.

The Switch ones are worse than the originals versions

I was never bothered about mouse to be honest, handheld gamer anyways. Soon as it was shown you could tell it wouldn't be too great on extended periods and will need some sort of grip to prevent claw hand

@NotASockPuppet exactly where its most needed, for what is next gen worth if nipples don't look better

"It turns out that .9 inches makes a huge difference."
Wow okay! I knew it! I'll just let the insecurity set in for a moment....

Treehouse footage definitely could see the Mario Odyssey DNA in there, along with DKC and a sprinkling of Wario. Much more impressed now than after that chaotic trailer yesterday

Its certainly handsome. I do hope the dpad is better. Although, I only play handheld, only plugged a switch in once to the tv, just see how it looked, so no interest to me. Hope we get some good grip controllers

I can wait. Not sure what to make of DK, need more info but otherwise no big hitters to worry about early adopting.
Metroid Beyond on my OLED is more than fine for now.

@anoyonmus yeah, think everyone had that issue

Would've been hilarious if Nintendo sent him a used one as a call back to his Game Boy unboxing

Honestly not bothered it didn't have a release date, its coming this year and that's all that matters.
As far as the trailer, the voice over kinda sucks and given that he is talking psychic abilities, why does do they feel the need to say with the power of her mind? Yes, that's what psychic abilities means, feels like a cheap, condescending line.
I've watched it a few times now and man has it got me hyped.

@JohnnyMind I used to do the same in the NES and SNES days, but as games became more involved and indeed life, I found I would stick to one till done. Like I say though, your lists have impressed me for years, the shear number of games you jump between. Enjoy!

@JohnnyMind I have always been amazed at how you can jump from game to game the way you do, playing a little of each. I play a game from start to finish, presuming I am enjoying it of course, only then will I move on to the next one, with Mario Maker 2 being an exception.

big Contra 3 vibes here, no bad thing at all

@Deljo Agreed

SML3 Wario Land and Wario land 4 at the no.1 and no.2 spots, absolutely no arguments here whatsoever

Good fun game and it is gorgeous. I have it on my SNES mini with the other 3 (obviously not Shake it!), the first in the series is my favourite but this one is still a very special game

I think once the wii hit these sports games went down hill, to point I've given up on Nintendo sports games, to many gimmicks, fancy things slowing the pace down. Not they are bad, just wish they would calm down a bit.
Best Nintendo console exclusive sports game, Super Tennis, I know its not a mario one, but that game is amazing

I frigging love the OLED, the difference was far more than I expected from the OG switch. That said, LCD's have moved on quite a bit so I imagine the S2 screen will look great

I have no problem with NSO staying, but it would be great to also have the option to purchase games as well. I never used the NES, SNES etc on the switch but if I could purchase a game to download to keep I absolutely would. As it is the only reason I bought a subscription was for MM2

Cruise ship would be awesome, so would a prison but that may be pushing the horror theme a little too far. I was one of the few that was disappointed with 3, it just felt like a glorified level select and not a cohesive whole. Much of the game was so disconnected to the hotel theme that it being set in a hotel really didnt matter much at all. I expected so many hidden routes that interconnected everything, with the variety being applied to individual rooms and its inhabitants. I also think that they squandered potential ideas, as @buxner commented above, a full game in a museum, which won't happen as they used the idea for a single quick floor, or a game based around ancient pyramids, Egyptian, Aztec etc, but again it wont happen. I was so excited prior to playing as well, the hotel theme could have been very special. I look forward to another, but I do hope that they run with whatever idea they have, create a cohesive whole and use the variety offered within that whole and not just a load of random ideas loosely strung together.

Nintendo "People are gonna love our race-car joy-cons!"
The people "Cool, the joy-cons can be used as a mouse!"
Nintendo "Oh s***, to the drawing board quick, get those patents out asap! Thank god we havent given a release date for the console yet!"

I can't afford to buy 54 games, are you mad!

@TenEighty Agreed. Tetris on the NES is perfection.

The Game Boy original is still fantastic and I'm glad it tops most of the ones that came after. It pure, simple and addictive.
Effect is truly fantastic modern iteration, with just enough bells and whistles to it without diluting what makes Tetris great.

"How many putters have you used that connects the grip and the clubhead with a piece of string?" As with most people, never, however, I want to see this at next years Masters tournament so much!!

@1UP-HUSKY after promising it for the Switch and people waiting sooo very long, I think many would see that as a kick in the teeth. It'll be a cross platform release, no doubt with improvements on the new console

Oh please let this be as good as looks....pleeeaase

My favourite 2d Zelda, its just magical, but that figurine gallery sucks. I have never and will never 100% this game due to it

@RootsGenoa @Matt57 @weakmanben
Not sure if you have found out yet, but it is on eshop, you have to do it via your switch and not on website as it doesn't show up there oddly. Found out this morning after a couple of frustrating days of wondering where it is

Well, i would be playing Broken Sword, but its still no where on eshop (UK), so Mario Maker 2 it is
Edit - So, turns out it is on eshop, you have to do it via your switch and not on website as it doesn't show up there oddly. Found out this morning after a couple of frustrating days of wondering where it is

Pleased its not based on directors cut, they added a few bits that weren't worth it but they also cut a fair bit too, dialogue and some adult based jokes as well as some transition scenes etc, the lose was felt. The original flows better too. I will absolutely be buying this, on the 4th system I may add, previous were PS1, GBA (odd one) and DS.

Die hard for the Nes and maybe Goonies II

The D-pad sticks out like a sore thumb, should have added some colour in the circle part

@HingryHuppo Cool, hope you enjoy. The mention of Half Life 2 vibes has me rethinking whether to purchase!! I was sooo hoping we would get a port of that after the Portals came out

@HingryHuppo just to clarify, with Metro Redux you get Metro Redux 2033 and Metro Redux Last light for £3.59, so if you thinking of getting one, you may as well get the double package. They are meant to be really good, never played myself, but I was tempted to buy, but I foresee them just sitting there and me never getting round to playing them

So very pleased its based of the original and not the awful directors cut, that messed with so much. Will def be getting this, played it a few times on PS1, the GBA (idk why) and directors cut on DS, which I believe also came out on wii.
