Double Dash was the first I played, DS was the first I owned.

Konami doing anything with its franchises in this day and age is the world’s biggest monkey’s paw.

Let’s go, Pikmin!!

This is a really fascinating analysis of Nintendo’s history when it comes to depicting gender non conformity in their games. The main take away being that Nintendo don’t seem to go out of their way to cater on either end. So while you have a company that does tend to cop out or come up short as far as representation is concerned, it doesn’t really enforce a hetero, cis or masculine status quo like other big budget corporations have done in the past.

I know it’s Sonic, but even then I’ve never seen the writing be on the wall for a game this hard, this fast.

Excellent game they made me a fan for life. Marathoning the Ace Attorney HD Trilogy is like binging a quality series. You end up not knowing what to do with your life when it’s over.

I'm actually begging for Square and Nintendo to do a Super Mario RPG remake in this fashion.

Pumping the breaks on big releases to go on an indie spree this Winter. This is topping the list along with Omori.

Having investigated ourselves, we have concluded we did nothing wrong.

Nintendo fanboys would rather not think about those pesky allegations of workplace toxicity and get back to the issues that really matter, such as the way the grass looks in the Mario Kart DLC.

Can someone explain to me what the problem with Kotaku is?

Anyway, Nintendo of America needs to get its house in order. Don’t know why I expected it to rise above the rest of the corporate American sludge to be honest. Maybe the Japanese arm of the company needs to intervene?

@NinjaNicky yeah it just shot up on my radar

@papermarioamiibo I take it you’ve never worked a day in your life

Hope the stag party is Wario themed

Nintendo heard you we’re talking sh*t lol

In fairness, it's difficult to assess a piece of content when it's part of a larger whole. Perhaps this crop of tracks is underwhelming, but their value will be bolstered by additional waves that have yet to release. So to my mind, the review reflects the state of the booster pack as it currently is.

@Erigen the Wii U was exceptionally badly marketed. Now we have Nintendo Directs which tend to dominate gaming news whenever they occur. I think Nintendo’s brand has never been in a stronger position.

@Tourtus I think fundamentally Nintendo just has a crazy big stick up their butt about IP control.

Looks like a marked improvement over wave 1.

Such a comfort game. Looking forward to replaying it this Winter with tea and a blanket.

No better way to celebrate your most famous game than by completely missing the point of it

She’s finally here, performing for you!

@Bobb the whole movie is hilariously vulgar in a way it really didn’t need to be but adds to the charm. There is so much swearing. Pretty sure Guile says f*ck at one point.

Resident Evil as a gameplay experience tends to prop up the ludicrous storytelling, which makes adaptations to other media a hard sell for me. The recent remakes are a good nudge towards realism, but even then one of the main antagonists is a big plodding brute in a fedora.

@Olliemar28 and Cuphead!

Looking forward to watching this struggle to crack 60 on Metacritic

This is the kind of thing that makes me happy to support Nintendo

Sums up my thoughts exactly. The games at their core are still brilliant but as a remaster, I’m left a bit cold.

I’m confused, which Nintendo villain is she named after?

@Piyo it feels like Namco has set it up to fail with the pricing and lack of promotion.

It’s a pretty lacklustre package if you’re judging it as a rerelease, and a €50 one at that. It’s very much just the two games and nothing else. It’s not something I’d say you need to kick down someone’s door to play, but if you like platformers, you should check it with out when it’s perhaps cheaper.

One Winged Angel plays

Nintendo heard y’all were talking ***** about the new 1 2 Switch

Absolutely brilliant expansion. The difficulty has got me rethinking my load out again, causing me to fall in love with the grind all over again.

Donkey Kong Country Returns Returns

Ooh interesting. Mega Man seems like such a no brainier for this that I’m surprised they haven’t already done it.

That’s cool. Wonder if he’ll donate them when he’s an old man.

The judge from Ace Attorney needs a look in, but otherwise great list

Pour one out for you he social media intern who probably begged them not to do this

Drastic situations require drastic measures.

Happy direct to everyone except the people who said a third party showcase was a waste of time.

Feel like this was made for my friend

Oh heck yeah, this is awesome. Mega Man might not be big enough to get a whole lot of sequels nowadays, but keep the back catalogue coming. Hopefully Legends will get a rerelease someday.

Mario vs Rabbids. Maybe that gorgeous Dragon Quest III remake? And a cool surprise please.

This looks great! Reminds me a lot of (don’t kill me) the slice of life parts of Persona 5 where you can just roam Japan and chill with the locals.

Luigi’s Mansion 4, but Waluigi is the Scooby Doo villain causing all the convoluted spooky shenanigans.

@DarthFoxMcCloud I don’t really don’t understand how Nintendo putting GBA games on the Switch is meant to improve the state of the world lol. Some of you need to stop overly investing your personal happiness in what video games a corporation may or may not decide to announce.

@BanjoPickles Monster Hunter, Triangle Strategy and Klonoa are all I plan to play for Summer. Then Crisis Core Remake in Winter.

Again, Nintendo’s got a rock solid release schedule for the rest year with some of their biggest IP getting new instalments in Pokémon, Splatoon and Xenoblade. I imagine we’ll start seeing new first party announcements crop up around September if they do a direct then. Kirby wasn’t at E3 last year but was announced in September and released in Spring.

That said, Mario vs. Rabbids plssssss.
