@ThatOneLevel I think we will get another 3D remake before they make a game for the next generation. Pokemon Gold and Silver with the Johto Region, Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire with the Hoenn or Pokemon Black and White with the Unova region would be fun to have on Switch 2.
No offence towards Benjamin Evan Ainsworth but at 16 years old he is way too young for the role especially when Bo Bragason who is playing Zelda is 21. Link and Zelda are supposed to be in love with each other and it is going to be pretty problematic if they have them together with the age difference.
@Bass_X0 Yeah. You are probably right about that. It sucks with 'The Simpsons' games too since Matt Groening and Al Jean both said they often get people asking them when 'The Simpsons: Hit & Run' is going to be re-released and they would like to see the game re-released too but it is beyond their control and there is believed to be some rights issue stopping it that involves another company.
I am hopeful for the Sonic, Spyro and Rayman games though and have been wanting 'Sonic Heroes' to be re-released on a new console for years and it feels like they have re-released or made nearly all the old 3D Sonic games available to play on newer consoles except for 'Sonic Heroes' which a lot of other Sonic fans I know think was one of the best Sonic 3D games and want to see it on modern consoles too.
@Dev-N I am still surprised we didn't get a third 2D Donkey Kong Country game that continued on from Returns and Tropical Freeze to make it into a trilogy like the original Donkey Kong Country games on Super Nintendo.
I am glad they have finally made a new Donkey Kong game though and was starting to think they had abandoned the Donkey Kong games with how long it had been.
@UnbreakableAlex I think that is because they are going after a younger audience around the age of my Nieces who are not highly skilled gamers and can just play the game and have fun. Sometimes I like playing easy games just to have fun playing them and am not looking for a challenge and I loved 'Yoshi's Woolly World' and have replayed all the levels multiple times.
@Pillowpants Me too. I heard it has been confirmed Yoshi is going to be in the sequel to 'The Super Mario Bros Movie' which is coming out next and is going to be a big part of it. I am really hoping we get new Yoshi and Captain Toad games on Nintendo Switch 2. 😀
Hopefully we get a new Yoshi game and they re-release Yoshi's Woolly World for Nintendo Switch 2. It was my favourite game on Nintendo Wii U aside from Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker and I am still disappointed it didn't get a Switch Release.
Bring on The Simpsons: Hit & Run!!! Along with The Simpsons: Road Rage, Sonic Adventure 1 and 2, Sonic Heroes, Sonic Riders, Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Chaos Bleeds, Spyro: A Hero's Tail, Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc, X2: Wolverine's Revenge, Looney Tunes: Back In Action, Kelly Slater's Pro Surfer, Pac-Man World 2 and 3, Transworld Surf, Tom and Jerry: War of the Whiskers and the Tak games!!!!
1) Sonic Adventure 2 2) Sonic Generations 3) Sonic CD 4) Sonic Unleashed 5) Sonic the Hedgehog 2 6) Sonic Adventure DX 7) Sonic the Hedgehog 8) Sonic Heroes 9) Sonic Colours 10) Sonic Advance 2
I didn't include them since they are not part of the main series but I love Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing and Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed too and can't wait for 'Crossworlds!!' I would love to see Sonic Heroes made available to play on modern consoles. It seems like nearly all the other games have been re-released or made available to play on newer consoles after their original releases except for Sonic Heroes.
1) Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment
2) Star Wars Jedi 3
3) Pokemon Legends: Z-A
4) Elements
5) Donkey Kong Bananza
6) Rayman (New game in development)
7) Super Mario Odyssey 2 or new 3D Mario Game
8) Spyro the Dragon 4 (rumoured)
9) Mario Kart World
10) Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds
Also, we will be getting 'Yooka Replayee' and there is a new Batman game reported to be in development from the creators of 'Arkham Origins' and it is rumoured it is going to be part of the Arkham series and will be a return to form and I am hoping for 'Arkham Origins 2' with Barbara Gordon as Batgirl and Dick Grayson as Robin.😀
A little off topic but getting physical video games is still very easy for us. We just order them on JBHIFI, EB Games and Amazon and we still get the majority of our games in physical form just like we still get albums by Artists and Bands we really like on CD and movies and TV Shows on DVDs and Blu Rays. I see articles saying getting things physically is really hard now but I can say from experience living here in Australia it is still very easy.
@Suketoudara I think that is deliberate because they want to remake the old games like they did with 'Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee and Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. I think Pokemon Gold/ Silver with the Johto region will be the next game to be remade in 3D and they will do Ruby/Sapphire and Black/ White after that.
@Uncle_Franklin That is what I came on here to write about. lol I don't get it. Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land and Wario Land 2 were very popular games but it doesn't look like we are going to get them on Switch at this point. I thought they would have released the 3 Mario Land games years ago but they have left Super Mario Galaxy 2 and New Super Mario Bros off the Switch too which were on the Nintendo Wii U.
Can't wait!! This is definitely the Nintendo Switch 2 game I am looking forward to getting the most. I loved 'Age of Calamity' especially playing as Zelda with her full powers, Mipha, Revali and Urbosa and I have to say I love the fast paced fighting style in the Hyrule Warriors games much more than 'Breath of the Wild' and 'Tears of the Kingdom' that allows you to take out multiple enemies at once and gives you special moves you could build up and best of all, UNBREAKABLE weapons!! 😀
I am looking forward to facing Gleeoks and Gloom Hands in 'Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Imprisonment' 'cause Lynels were heaps easier to defeat in 'Age of Calamity' than 'Breath of the Wild' thanks to the fighting style in the game.
@DaniPooo Me too especially since they had Donkey Kong 64 and Donkey Kong Country 1, 2 and 3 on Nintendo Wii U but there are a lot of older games that were on the Nintendo Wii U that are sadly missing on Nintendo Switch including 'Super Mario Galaxy 2' which I thought we would have got for sure.
I often see a lot of hate for these games but I actually liked them and my youngest Niece did too. I enjoyed exploring the Paldea region, the new Pokemon, riding around on Koraidon and unlocking the different abilities for them by defeating the Titan Pokemon and getting the Herb Mystica, battling the members of Team Star, the Gym leaders and the challenges and I liked the characters like Nemona, Penny, Arven, Carmine and Geeta and Nemona is one of my fav human Pokemon characters to date. I also liked the DLC with the story of the Ogerpon and the Teal Mask.
I have never hated any Pokemon games though and as long as there are cute Pokemon and it looks fun I will buy them. 😄 I mean there are some I like more than others but I have always found things I have enjoyed in every Pokemon game I have played and out of the Pokemon games on Nintendo Switch I would say New Pokemon Snap has been my favourite and I loved the first one on Nintendo 64 and played it a lot when I was young and I waited 22 years for a sequel and it was the wait but I hope we don't have to wait that long again for a third game. I am also hoping for a PokePark 3 for Nintendo Switch 2 or Poke Park 1 and 2 remastered. Those were the cutest Pokemon games imo.
@Dhaladog Nice to see another person still playing Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker. My youngest Niece and I love the game and we are still hoping they will bring out a Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker 2. 😀
@roe I loved Donkey Kong Country 2 the most out of the Donkey Kong games 'cause we got to play as Diddy and Dixie. I enjoy playing as them more than Donkey Kong but I have always liked the side characters more than the main characters. lol
That's good to hear. Call me old fashioned but I still like to buy most new games physically and we are the same with albums of our fav Artists and Bands and movies and TV Shows we love on DVD and Blu-Ray. The biggest problem I have with subscription services and streaming services is you are not guaranteed to keep anything and they can take games, movies and shows off anytime they want causing you to lose them for good if they are not available physically.
I am still annoyed with Disney + taking the three seasons of 'Marvel's The Runaways' off since we have no legal way to watch it anymore in Australia since it didn't get physically released on DVD. Imagine being halfway through a long game you are really enjoying and it has taken you weeks or months to get up to where you are at and they just take it off.
@SirLink Thanks. I agree about Super Mario Sunshine. I am hoping they re-release 'Super Mario 3D All Stars collection' on Switch 2 with the addition of Super Mario Galaxy 2.
Spyro: A Hero's Tail
The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning
Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly
Toys For Bob could make a second Reignited trilogy with the Gamecube games.
Sonic Heroes (The Sonic game I want the most. A number of the other 3D Sonic games got re-released on newer consoles but 'Sonic Heroes' is the best one that hasn't been.)
Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut
Sonic Adventure 2: Battle
Super Mario Sunshine
Luigi's Mansion
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Chaos Bleeds (Would love this one and used to play it a lot on Gamecube.)
The Simpsons: Hit and Run (Same as the above)
The Simpsons: Road Rage
Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc
X-Men: The Official Game
X2: Wolverine's Revenge
Mario Kart: Double Dash
Pikmin
Pikmin 2
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Looney Tunes: Back in Action
Pac-Man World 2
Pac-Man World 3
Animal Crossing
Happy Feet
Donkey Konga
Kelly Slater's Pro Surfer
Disney's Magical Mirror Starring Mickey Mouse
Pokémon Colosseum
Kirby Air Ride
I am still hoping we could get Rayman 2: The Great Escape and Mischief Makers that were on Nintendo 64 on Switch 1 or 2.
The fact franchises like Gex, Croc, Bubsy, Kao the Kangaroo and TY the Tasmanian Tiger can make comebacks with new and remastered games it is beyond ridiculous when people claim Banjo Kazooie can't make a comeback because not enough people would buy it and it is not popular enough. Banjo Kazooie was far more popular than all of those video games and many other franchises that are getting new entries and remastered games after not having new games out for a long time.
There is no excuse why we can't get a new Banjo Kazooie game or a 3D trilogy remastered with modern graphics of Banjo Kazooie, Banjo Tooie and Grunty's Revenge other than the people who own the rights dislike Banjo Kazooie but won't sell it to studios that want to make new Banjo Kazooie games 'cause they know it will make money and they don't want to miss out on that.
@westman98 Not here it isn't. We got an X Box Series X for under $500 as part of the Christmas sales in 2023 and the Nintendo Switch 2 is going to cost $699 when it comes out.
I will say while I am slightly annoyed over the price of the games going up and I don't think they are thinking about the parents who have to pay for these things for their children when Nintendo as they have said multiple times is a video game console that is mainly created for children it is the price of the Nintendo Switch 2 going up significantly that bothers me the most. Why should we pay more for a Nintendo Switch 2 than an X Box Series X when an X Box Series X does a whole bunch of things a Switch doesn't like plays music, plays DVDs and Blu Rays, plays streaming services, plays TV, has a web browser etc. Unless the Nintendo Switch 2 has things like that I am not seeing anything that justifies it costing more than an X Box Series X or Playstation 5 for that matter.
I thought there was a new Yoshi game coming out with all the Yoshi's in that picture and was getting excited 'cause I love Yoshi's Woolly and Crafted Worlds and hope they continue on Switch 2.
@Jeronan I am the opposite. lol I loved Star Wars Jedi: Survivor because it was more of the same much like I liked Arkham City, Arkham Origins and Arkham Knight because it was more of the same with Batman after 'Arkham Asylum. I wasn't a fan of the Star Wars: Outlaws game though and I gave it a chance but I prefer to play as a Jedi with a lightsaber and the Force over a gun which is why I am looking forward to Star Wars Jedi 3 the most and the creator has confirmed it is in development and will be the final game in the series.
Looking at the amount of old games we have been seeing coming back getting remakes and new entries including many that are far smaller and lesser known than Banjo Kazooie and have been finding success with new and old gamers I couldn't disagree with him more.
@Zufolobelisk Ubisoft has literally confirmed they are making a remake of Rayman for modern consoles and there is a new Rayman game in the exploration stages and Michael Ancel is back for it.
Kirby and the Forgotten Land alone sold over 7.52 million, Kirby Star Allies sold 4.38 million and Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe sold 1.46 million and that is only the titles on Switch. There is a list here of all the Kirby games with their sales and it says "As of March 2024, the Kirby franchise has sold over 51.32 million copies worldwide" and that makes it one of the biggest selling video game franchises of all time."
I am personally surprised it took them so long to release another Donkey Kong game and why we didn't get a third 2D game after New Donkey Kong Country Returns and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze on Nintendo Switch 'cause Tropical Freeze came out back in 2014 and I always saw Donkey Kong as being one of Nintendo's top franchises and is listed as selling over 92 million units worldwide which is a lot higher than other franchises that have had 2 or 3 new games released in the last 11 years like Metroid.
@DaniPooo Yeah. You are right but I might be kinda biased since I love the Yoshi games and am hoping we get a new one on Switch 2 since the last two consoles had one. I would really love a sequel to Captain Toad Treasure Tracker and I loved the first game and still enjoy playing it now but I am sadly not sure if it will happen now.
I agree with you with most of those titles but I think Kirby is more popular with fans that what you give it credit for and Nintendo value the Kirby franchise and we always get a lot of Kirby games. I think we are likely to get new Pokemon games in the next 2-3 years too aside from 'Legends 2' which will follow up 'Scarlet and Violet' since 'Scarlet and Violet' came out less than a year after the first 'Legends' game.
There are a lot of great games on it but I am sadly disappointed we haven't got Super Mario Land: Wario Land and Wario Land 2 and thought those would have been two of the games that got put on there years ago especially the first one to complete the Super Mairo Land trilogy with Mario being Nintendo's mascot character.
I would love Mischief Makers and Rayman 2: The Great Escape on there too and hope they will be on Nintendo Switch 2.
Wow. This looks like fun. After reading how 'Breath of the Wild' was originally going to have underwater areas to explore and additional Divine Beasts based on sea creatures which was shared on this site a few years back I was hoping they would use some of that for 'Tears of the Kingdom' but we got the Depths instead which I wasn't really a fan of.
I am hoping the next Open World 'Legend of Zelda' gives us underwater exploration and I would love something like this.
@DaniPooo 'Yoshi's Woolly World' came out in 2015. 'Yoshi's Crafted World' came out in 2019. It is definitely time for a new Yoshi game. Wii U had Woolly World and Switch had Crafted World. 😀
@Dhaladog Yeah. An Open World game similar to 'Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild' where you can explore a bunch of different kingdoms including Isle Delfino which I have long wanted to see brought back in one of the newer games extended with modern graphics since it is my favourite place in the Mario games would be a lot of fun.
Sadly wasn't a fan of it and wouldn't buy it again for Nintendo Switch 2. I love the 'Star Wars Jedi' games though and can't wait for 'Star Wars Jedi 3.'
@Yoshi3 I loved 'Donkey Kong 64' too and know a lot of other people that like it too. I don't get the hate I see for it online now and didn't even know there was any hate for it when it first came out outside of some people that said it felt more like a 'Banjo Kazooie' game than a 'Donkey Kong' game but I loved the 'Banjo Kazooie' games so that didn't bother me and I remember reading a few of the levels in 'Donkey Kong 64' and 'Conker's Bad Fur Day' were originally made for 'Banjo Kazooie' but went unused at the time and got changed to fit into 'Donkey Kong 64.'
Very excited and looking forward to playing it after waiting such a long time for a new 'Donkey Kong' game ('Tropical Freeze' came out way back in 2014) but I am disappointed over the lack of Diddy and Dixie and hope they are part of the game or they add them as DLC. 'Donkey Kong Country 2' has always been my fav 'Donkey Kong' game and I like Diddy and Dixie even more than Donkey Kong.
It is a shame they don't extend 'Breath of the Wild' and add all the underwater areas that were explorable and the additional Divine Beasts they made for the game. They let out pictures of it a few years back and said it didn't make the final game 'cause they ran out of time. If they make 'Breath of the Wild' into a trilogy (not counting the 'Hyrule Warriors' spinoffs) it would be good to see that used. Some might disagree but I would have preferred underwater explorable areas than the Depths in 'Tears of the Kingdom.'
@Lofoten It is a shame they didn't do that back in the 90s. I have no doubt if they did 'Banjo Kazooie' games would still be getting made now just like a lot of other long running series owned by Nintendo. Sadly the high ups at Microsoft seem to hate 'Banjo Kazooie' but won't sell it to other companies that want to make more games 'cause they know how much money they would make with it.
OMG. That would be amazing. I would love Toys for Bob to make a new 'Banjo Kazooie' game. The franchise deserves to have a comeback especially with all the far lesser popular older games getting remakes and sequels now after not having new entries for decades. It depends on whether Microsoft would allow them to do it though.
I have got more faith in us finally getting a Spyro the Dragon 4 and my Nieces loved the 'Reignited' trilogy and have been waiting for a new Spyro game too. 😀
@Caboose1979 Thanks for letting me know. That is good to hear 'cause I have been replaying 'Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild' on Nintendo Switch for the past few months and would like to be able to continue where I am at on the Nintendo Switch 2.
@coolioam It wouldn't be such a problem if more of these new games like 'Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment' for example were going to be released on Switch 1 too. When X Box released X Box Series X a lot of the new games were still being released on X Box One too and same with X Box 360 with X Box One. Hell, you can still get new X Box games that work on both X Box One and X Box Series X and have the names of both consoles on the top of the boxes.

Re: Pokémon Is Teasing Something Ahead Of Next Week's Showcase
@ThatOneLevel I think we will get another 3D remake before they make a game for the next generation. Pokemon Gold and Silver with the Johto Region, Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire with the Hoenn or Pokemon Black and White with the Unova region would be fun to have on Switch 2.
Re: Pokémon Is Teasing Something Ahead Of Next Week's Showcase
Would love to see Pokemon Snap 3, Poke Park 3 or remasters of both Poke Park games or 3D remake of Gold and Silver with the Johto region. 😀
Re: Nintendo Announces First Cast Members For The Legend Of Zelda Movie
No offence towards Benjamin Evan Ainsworth but at 16 years old he is way too young for the role especially when Bo Bragason who is playing Zelda is 21.

Re: Donkey Kong Bananza, Like Mario Kart World, Was Initially Planned For Switch 1
@Dev-N I am still surprised we didn't get a third 2D Donkey Kong Country game that continued on from Returns and Tropical Freeze to make it into a trilogy like the original Donkey Kong Country games on Super Nintendo.
I am glad they have finally made a new Donkey Kong game though and was starting to think they had abandoned the Donkey Kong games with how long it had been.

Re: Nintendo Expands Switch 2's GameCube Library Next Week
@TheBigK That would be great. I am still hoping for Diddy Kong Racing, Mischief Makers and Rayman 2: The Great Escape with Nintendo 64 games.

Re: Feature: "Game-Key Cards Don't Sit Right With Us" - Lost In Cult Dives Into Its New Physical Games Line
A little off topic but getting physical video games is still very easy for us.

Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's Game Boy Library With Four More Titles
@Suketoudara I think that is deliberate because they want to remake the old games like they did with 'Let's Go Pikachu and Let's Go Eevee and Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl. I think Pokemon Gold/ Silver with the Johto region will be the next game to be remade in 3D and they will do Ruby/Sapphire and Black/ White after that.

Re: Nintendo: "Physical Games Are Still A Key Part Of Our Business"
That's good to hear.

The fact franchises like Gex, Croc, Bubsy, Kao the Kangaroo and TY the Tasmanian Tiger can make comebacks with new and remastered games it is beyond ridiculous when people claim Banjo Kazooie can't make a comeback because not enough people would buy it and it is not popular enough. Banjo Kazooie was far more popular than all of those video games and many other franchises that are getting new entries and remastered games after not having new games out for a long time.
There is no excuse why we can't get a new Banjo Kazooie game or a 3D trilogy remastered with modern graphics of Banjo Kazooie, Banjo Tooie and Grunty's Revenge other than the people who own the rights dislike Banjo Kazooie but won't sell it to studios that want to make new Banjo Kazooie games 'cause they know it will make money and they don't want to miss out on that.
Re: Shuhei Yoshida On Higher Switch 2 Game Prices: "It Was Going To Happen Eventually"
@westman98 Not here it isn't. We got an X Box Series X for under $500 as part of the Christmas sales in 2023 and the Nintendo Switch 2 is going to cost $699 when it comes out.
Re: Shuhei Yoshida On Higher Switch 2 Game Prices: "It Was Going To Happen Eventually"
I will say while I am slightly annoyed over the price of the games going up and I don't think they are thinking about the parents who have to pay for these things for their children when Nintendo as they have said multiple times is a video game console that is mainly created for children it is the price of the Nintendo Switch 2 going up significantly that bothers me the most. Why should we pay more for a Nintendo Switch 2 than an X Box Series X when an X Box Series X does a whole bunch of things a Switch doesn't like plays music, plays DVDs and Blu Rays, plays streaming services, plays TV, has a web browser etc. Unless the Nintendo Switch 2 has things like that I am not seeing anything that justifies it costing more than an X Box Series X or Playstation 5 for that matter.
Re: Shuhei Yoshida On Higher Switch 2 Game Prices: "It Was Going To Happen Eventually"
I thought there was a new Yoshi game coming out with all the Yoshi's in that picture and was getting excited 'cause I love Yoshi's Woolly and Crafted Worlds and hope they continue on Switch 2.
Re: Opinion: Switch 2 Finally Gives Star Wars Outlaws A Second Chance
@Jeronan I am the opposite. lol I loved Star Wars Jedi: Survivor because it was more of the same much like I liked Arkham City, Arkham Origins and Arkham Knight because it was more of the same with Batman after 'Arkham Asylum. I wasn't a fan of the Star Wars: Outlaws game though and I gave it a chance but I prefer to play as a Jedi with a lightsaber and the Force over a gun which is why I am looking forward to Star Wars Jedi 3 the most and the creator has confirmed it is in development and will be the final game in the series.
Re: Opinion: Switch 2 Finally Gives Star Wars Outlaws A Second Chance
Sadly no new news about Star Wars Jedi 3 yet.
Re: Banjo-Kazooie Composer Explains Why He Thinks Another Game Is Unlikely
Looking at the amount of old games we have been seeing coming back getting remakes and new entries including many that are far smaller and lesser known than Banjo Kazooie and have been finding success with new and old gamers I couldn't disagree with him more.
Re: Banjo-Kazooie Composer Explains Why He Thinks Another Game Is Unlikely
@Zufolobelisk Ubisoft has literally confirmed they are making a remake of Rayman for modern consoles and there is a new Rayman game in the exploration stages and Michael Ancel is back for it.
Re: "Stay Tuned" For Next Mainline Mario, Says Nintendo's Bowser
@DaniPooo Thanks for sharing that but on the list of best selling video game series Kirby is listed at 48 million sales
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_video_game_franchises
Kirby and the Forgotten Land alone sold over 7.52 million, Kirby Star Allies sold 4.38 million and Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe sold 1.46 million and that is only the titles on Switch. There is a list here of all the Kirby games with their sales and it says "As of March 2024, the Kirby franchise has sold over 51.32 million copies worldwide" and that makes it one of the biggest selling video game franchises of all time."
https://vgsales.fandom.com/wiki/Kirby
I am personally surprised it took them so long to release another Donkey Kong game and why we didn't get a third 2D game after New Donkey Kong Country Returns and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze on Nintendo Switch 'cause Tropical Freeze came out back in 2014 and I always saw Donkey Kong as being one of Nintendo's top franchises and is listed as selling over 92 million units worldwide which is a lot higher than other franchises that have had 2 or 3 new games released in the last 11 years like Metroid.
Re: "Stay Tuned" For Next Mainline Mario, Says Nintendo's Bowser
@DaniPooo Yeah. You are right but I might be kinda biased since I love the Yoshi games and am hoping we get a new one on Switch 2 since the last two consoles had one. I would really love a sequel to Captain Toad Treasure Tracker and I loved the first game and still enjoy playing it now but I am sadly not sure if it will happen now.
I agree with you with most of those titles but I think Kirby is more popular with fans that what you give it credit for and Nintendo value the Kirby franchise and we always get a lot of Kirby games. I think we are likely to get new Pokemon games in the next 2-3 years too aside from 'Legends 2' which will follow up 'Scarlet and Violet' since 'Scarlet and Violet' came out less than a year after the first 'Legends' game.
Re: Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack Now Boasts 300 Playable Titles
There are a lot of great games on it but I am sadly disappointed we haven't got Super Mario Land: Wario Land and Wario Land 2 and thought those would have been two of the games that got put on there years ago especially the first one to complete the Super Mairo Land trilogy with Mario being Nintendo's mascot character.
I would love Mischief Makers and Rayman 2: The Great Escape on there too and hope they will be on Nintendo Switch 2.
Re: Random: If We Could Get A Zelda: Wind Waker Sequel Like This, We'd Be Ecstatic
Wow. This looks like fun. After reading how 'Breath of the Wild' was originally going to have underwater areas to explore and additional Divine Beasts based on sea creatures which was shared on this site a few years back I was hoping they would use some of that for 'Tears of the Kingdom' but we got the Depths instead which I wasn't really a fan of.
I am hoping the next Open World 'Legend of Zelda' gives us underwater exploration and I would love something like this.
Re: "Stay Tuned" For Next Mainline Mario, Says Nintendo's Bowser
@DaniPooo 'Yoshi's Woolly World' came out in 2015. 'Yoshi's Crafted World' came out in 2019. It is definitely time for a new Yoshi game. Wii U had Woolly World and Switch had Crafted World. 😀
Re: "Stay Tuned" For Next Mainline Mario, Says Nintendo's Bowser
@Dhaladog Yeah. An Open World game similar to 'Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild' where you can explore a bunch of different kingdoms including Isle Delfino which I have long wanted to see brought back in one of the newer games extended with modern graphics since it is my favourite place in the Mario games would be a lot of fun.
Re: "Stay Tuned" For Next Mainline Mario, Says Nintendo's Bowser
Bring on Captain Toad Treasure Tracker 2 and new Yoshi game or Yoshi's Woolly World on Switch 2. 😀
Re: Star Wars Outlaws Shows Off 'A Pirate's Fortune' DLC Ahead Of Switch 2 Release
Sadly wasn't a fan of it and wouldn't buy it again for Nintendo Switch 2. I love the 'Star Wars Jedi' games though and can't wait for 'Star Wars Jedi 3.'
Re: Round Up: The First Impressions Of Donkey Kong Bananza Are In
@Yoshi3 I loved 'Donkey Kong 64' too and know a lot of other people that like it too. I don't get the hate I see for it online now and didn't even know there was any hate for it when it first came out outside of some people that said it felt more like a 'Banjo Kazooie' game than a 'Donkey Kong' game but I loved the 'Banjo Kazooie' games so that didn't bother me and I remember reading a few of the levels in 'Donkey Kong 64' and 'Conker's Bad Fur Day' were originally made for 'Banjo Kazooie' but went unused at the time and got changed to fit into 'Donkey Kong 64.'
Re: Round Up: The First Impressions Of Donkey Kong Bananza Are In
@Clyde_Radcliffe Dixie Kong doesn't appear to be in it either so I don't think it has to do with that.
Re: Round Up: The First Impressions Of Donkey Kong Bananza Are In
Very excited and looking forward to playing it after waiting such a long time for a new 'Donkey Kong' game ('Tropical Freeze' came out way back in 2014) but I am disappointed over the lack of Diddy and Dixie and hope they are part of the game or they add them as DLC. 'Donkey Kong Country 2' has always been my fav 'Donkey Kong' game and I like Diddy and Dixie even more than Donkey Kong.
Re: Zelda: BOTW Switch 2 Edition Won't Include The DLC, Nintendo Confirms
It is a shame they don't extend 'Breath of the Wild' and add all the underwater areas that were explorable and the additional Divine Beasts they made for the game. They let out pictures of it a few years back and said it didn't make the final game 'cause they ran out of time. If they make 'Breath of the Wild' into a trilogy (not counting the 'Hyrule Warriors' spinoffs) it would be good to see that used. Some might disagree but I would have preferred underwater explorable areas than the Depths in 'Tears of the Kingdom.'
Re: Crash And Spyro Dev Wants To Partner With Team Xbox For A Crack At Banjo
@Lofoten It is a shame they didn't do that back in the 90s. I have no doubt if they did 'Banjo Kazooie' games would still be getting made now just like a lot of other long running series owned by Nintendo. Sadly the high ups at Microsoft seem to hate 'Banjo Kazooie' but won't sell it to other companies that want to make more games 'cause they know how much money they would make with it.
Re: Crash And Spyro Dev Wants To Partner With Team Xbox For A Crack At Banjo
OMG. That would be amazing. I would love Toys for Bob to make a new 'Banjo Kazooie' game. The franchise deserves to have a comeback especially with all the far lesser popular older games getting remakes and sequels now after not having new entries for decades. It depends on whether Microsoft would allow them to do it though.
I have got more faith in us finally getting a Spyro the Dragon 4 and my Nieces loved the 'Reignited' trilogy and have been waiting for a new Spyro game too. 😀
Re: Community: What Questions About Switch 2 Do You Still Have For Nintendo?
@Caboose1979 Thanks for letting me know. That is good to hear 'cause I have been replaying 'Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild' on Nintendo Switch for the past few months and would like to be able to continue where I am at on the Nintendo Switch 2.
Re: Some Fans Are Drawing Unfavourable Comparisons Between Switch 2 And Xbox One
@coolioam It wouldn't be such a problem if more of these new games like 'Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment' for example were going to be released on Switch 1 too. When X Box released X Box Series X a lot of the new games were still being released on X Box One too and same with X Box 360 with X Box One. Hell, you can still get new X Box games that work on both X Box One and X Box Series X and have the names of both consoles on the top of the boxes.
