lol, for some reason this is reappearing at the top of the site for me

Switch 2 launch title

Merry Christmas!

@Zeebor15 With the fact that it's a free to play game and those eventually die out with the passage of time, I guess that Epic decided to expand fortnite into some sort of metaverse-esque experience while it's still popular to increase it's longevity by allowing those who might not be into a battle royale a way to play with this game. It's a little funny how basically 8 entire full games are in here, but it's kind of genius

Regardless though, I don't think I'm personally touching fortnite for a while even with this stuff

This is unironically my favorite game ever, and it just got an overly hard bonus boss and fishing, so now it’s perfect-er

Im in a digital art summer course from 8AM-5PM tomorrow. I am missing this sadly, RIP

“How big is your back-catalogue currently?”
“How often do you use the NSO specific-game icon feature?”
“What game do you have the most hours in?”
“What is the worst purchase you’ve made on the eShop?”
And maybe throw in “What color is your refrigerator?” for comedic effect

This news is so big apparently that even the exclusively-movie news accounts on Twitter are sharing this lmfao

This is basically NES Remix Pack 2 lol

This makes me wonder if Pyoro gets his information from some sort of ESRB-related thingumajig?

STABILITY 🔥🔥🔥🗣️🗣️🗣️

I’d like a Punch-a-Bunch mention

This is the first game by the guy who made “A Difficult Game About Climbing” and it’s pretty neat

@_Figo_ Damn, I didn’t know that

What I want/expect here:

• Earthblade
• Stardew Valley 1.6
• Dewdrop Dynasty
• Star of Providence
• Hollow Knig- 💥🔫
• Pizza Tower
• Mina the Hollower
• Another Crab’s Treasure

Just Mario Kart 7 due to the closure, but other than that I haven’t played any video games for the past 1-2 months like at all, how did I go from 1000 hours in Mario Maker to this 😭

this is so utterly unnecessary

I was able to say goodbye by recording the last hour and 15 minutes of Mario Kart 7, up until this message:

I also got 2nd place in the final GXP communtiy thing, I am content:

This is where the real men cried.

Mario Kart 7 died at 7:02PM CST, I recorded the final hour of its life so it’s preserved. And currently Andre from GXP is in a MK8 lobby still 20 minutes after shutdown

Edit: Andre made it to almost 2 hours!

I feel like the actual proper list would be something like:

1. Mario
2. Sonic
3. PAC-MAN
4. Pikachu
5. Donkey Kong
6. Link
7. Master Chief
8. Lara Croft
9. Crash Bandicoot
10. Samus Aran

And honorable mentions: Ratchet & Clank, Kirby (might be replaceable with Samus), Kratos, etc

And if this list considered multiple characters from the same franchise, we’d obviously have multiple Mario/Sonic characters.

Don’t do it,

Don’t give me hope.

SILKSONG ISNT JUST A GROUP HALLUCINATION?!

I also heard from some reliable sources that Nintendo is planning on making another Amiibo Festival game for the Splatoon series, if I recall correctly

NintendoLife sources can corroborate this, right?

vXX to vXX version transitions have become meaningless, this literally could’ve been called 17.2.0 or whatever

I sense a 47 minute summoning salt video out of this in 2025.

You think Alex is just being edited into videogame screenshots?
Think again.

this is actually a really good idea oh my gosh

Why does Luigi look so hyper-polished on the switch box art 😭

Badges and Wonder Effects could become mainstays, though I don’t want a direct sequel to wonder taking olsce in the same general area

@Snatcher yes, some people use it for piracy, but they do not promote it at all (and if i recall correctly, even mentioning it will get you banned from their discord)

its used for things like playing games you already own legitimately on PC, playing your own dumped-ROMs, and sadly is also used to illegally steal games you do not own at all, so its like a 33.3% split

@Snatcher Yuzu is just an emulator, they don't distribute ROMs, so ideally to use it, you do the legal option of just dumping your own ROM with your own legal copy

@Anti-Matter Emulators aren't illegal as long as you don't use the keys like Dolphin did, so Yuzu and Citra are inherently fine.

Believe it or not, people actually do use emulators to play their own backed-up games, not everyone who uses them is a mustache-twirling villain set on stealing every single game released on switch without even buying a legit copy first

Yes, some people use the emulator to pirate games that literally just got released without ever paying for them, and those people need to be shamed because they are actually doing harm, but its not necessary to spread misinformation like "emulators are inherently illegal" and it's not necessary to generalize everyone who uses emulators as pirates.

@Pat_trick In this series, Knuckles may chuckle, but he may also ruckle a piece of fabric, or he could get and a car and buckle, or roll on truckles, or find a shoe that's muckle, and perhaps he could show some emotion but subtle, or maybe in a car he can take the shuttle, or use some energy to hustle, but at the end of the day, he is Knuckles

I think this is the most commented-on post in NintendoLife history lol

This is the direct to ever happen

The new SFX/transitions between games are kinda cool, and some games shown were neat, but it was missing some true heavyhitters in my opinion

Wow, this month was packed lmao

I had a dream where I was watching the entirety of the partner showcase, and it’ll probably be better then how it actually turns out.

Anyway, I’m betting on an Earthblade appearance

@Fizza I completely forgot about this lmao

can’t wait for Pokémon Walk, the companion to Pokémon Sleep you didn’t ask for-

@N00BiSH dude he literally has a perfect track record lmao

@Regulus6891 "Fortnite is already single-handedly responsible for killing the minds of a young gamer generation." Okay, this is an extreme reach.

You can not like fortnite (in-fact, I myself personally could care less for it), but acting like it killed a generation of gamers because a few bad apples addicted to it with behavior problems went viral online is not really valid.

This does not debunk a 2024 switch 2.

I will drop everything to get a full-blown gorgeous remake of the OG ace attorney trilogy

Misread “PUMA” as “PETA” and was terrified for a moment

Uh, where is the character? It seems you showed us a photo of nothing instead of the new DLC character.

This is it folks’ it’s time for Donkey Kong 64 and a remake of Donkey Kong Country.

I got back into Minecraft Java
I forgot how amazing it was to explore an endless world where you can do anything on a multiplayer, pure vanilla server with other people.

Makes me feel pure happiness.

Yes.
I had (TotK ending spoilers) the demon dragon final phase accidentally revealed to me before I got to the final boss, and it definitely did remove some shock factor of “Oh my gosh, he’s actually eating the stone?!”

Well, it’s not surprising because SEGA stands for
Sacrificing
Employees to the
Gods,
Amazing!

In all seriousness, this does suck.

PlayStation Life

@SteveDaSteve it could technically be added as an update to the main Celeste game itself
