Stardew Valley, the game that keeps on giving. I haven't played the game since I first got it on Xbox One, but all of this new content is great for continual players. I think I would be slightly overwhelmed if I played the game with all of this added content. I am one of those people that want to experience most of a game's content in a reasonable amount of time, and I know this game has more content than I could get through.

I didn't even know that co-op was included. That is a pretty neat addition and pushes me a little closer to a purchase. Perhaps when the game goes on discount, I will consider it.

I have kind of fallen off playing my PlayStation 5 at the moment, and I have been primarily been playing my Nintendo Switch currently. I have been diving back into The Legend of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom again to continue the storyline, and explore some more areas I haven't seen. I also have plenty of great quests to continue and I have been having fun playing the game in different ways each time I take a break and come back. I hope everyone has a great gaming weekend!

I would probably say yes as long as it doesn't hike up the prices. I think colorful cartridges made the Nintendo 64 a more enjoyable system to play. As an example, popping in a yellow cartridge for Donkey Kong 64 made that game stand out in comparison to some others. The same goes for Spider-Man 64. One of my all time favorite games, and I adored the red cartridge on that one.

Backwards compatibility will determine when I end up purchasing the next Nintendo console. I still have a bunch of Nintendo Switch games that I need to play/purchase before I am ready to move onto the next generation of Nintendo hardware. Having backwards compatibility would allow me to buy one at launch (if I have the money) without worry. I am not too hopeful on that feature being present in the first place though.

Absolutely the end of an era. I never really played my Wii U online very much, but there were so many instances where I was playing most of my Nintendo 3DS library online on a regular basis, and I met some cool people that way. It helped that the Nintendo 3DS had a pretty stellar catalogue of games after the first year of its launch. Too many great games to count.

As he should be, his work has made a permanent mark on the gaming industry in general, and an even bigger permanent mark on many people's hearts throughout the years. Thank you Koji Kondo!

I am kind of surprised that Super Smash Bros Ultimate is still getting new spirits, especially from the titles listed. Very cool for those still playing the game, though I didn't get too far into the other game modes. I mainly only really like to play the game with my kids. Tag-teaming our adversaries is so fun at times.

I will probably end up watching it to be honest. I always enjoy orchestrated Zelda music.

Personally, I am more interested in playing PalWorld over playing any of the newer entries of Pokemon. The game itself looks like a breath of fresh air for the genre. I'll only get to play it if it ever comes to PS5.

I honestly think the game looks pretty awesome. I am not a big Pong fan by any means, but this looks pretty fun.

I am definitely voting for the North American Classic Series even though it isn't exactly representing the final product. I just love the realistic Samus armor, and think it would make for a great box art on somebody's shelf.

I have never traded in a Nintendo Switch game, and I honestly don't think I ever will. I have only returned one game as well, but that was because of a poor purchase decision of mine.

Honestly, a few of the games on this list should have already been released on the service by now. I am in particular pretty desperate for the Gex trilogy to appear on the service, though I know that series has been stuck in licensing limbo for a long time. I still keep holding out hope though.

I have it on my Nintendo Switch though I haven't played it yet. I would be more likely to purchase this game on PS5. I do think the game itself though looks very promising.

I am primarily voting for the North American variant because of how the box art looks like it could be the cover art of a comic book. It looks pretty darn slick to be honest, even if not exactly representative of the final product.

I will be continuing my journey through Psychonauts 2 on PlayStation 5 and I will be enjoying every minute of it. I have finally gotten out of the initial hub area and I am able to explore to my heart's content. I also completed the main story in Super Mario Bros Wonder on Nintendo Switch last night and I was pretty pleased with the final boss fight. I still have more levels to complete, and secrets to collect. And even though I am playing 2 platformers, they are distinctly different in many ways, which is helping keeping me interested. Happy gaming everyone!

This one is another clear winner for me. The North American/European variant is much more focused and achieves it's goal of letting the players know what they will experience while playing the game. Easy vote for sure.

I finished Lies of P on PlayStation 5 yesterday evening, and I ended up starting Psychonauts 2. I have been enjoying revisiting all of the characters from the first game, as well as meeting some new ones. I have barely gotten started though! Many more adventures to be had. Happy gaming everyone!

@Poodlestargenerica Haha fair point. Forgot that this game wasn't an indie game.

Since there is a demo, I will probably try that first before purchasing. I have a tendency to not enjoy some indie games that others give praise.

25 hours is what I am looking for in most videos games I play these days. Long enough to get your enjoyment out of it, but not too long for the gameplay to become stale.

I think he did a pretty awesome job voicing Mario in Super Mario Wonder. He seems like a pretty decent guy too.

I mean, I am not completely surprised. He would make a pretty comical Steve. I am pretty interested, at the very least to see this movie with my kids.

Japan has produced an overwhelming majority of the votes, and I am honestly not surprised. I am a sucker for Mario characters though. The Japanese variant gets my vote as well.

I honestly don't blame him. When someone has a passion that drives them, it can be hard to contemplate retirement even when good people are there to take your place when you are done. I admire the man's work ethic.

The only video game so far has been getting my attention this weekend, is Lies of P on PlayStation 5. I am loving the more linear focus, and the characters that you meet over the course of the game are very memorable, with a pretty interesting overarching story. The timing of a dodge mechanics, and how to perform perfect parries took a little getting used to after playing Elden Ring, so far this game has been a joy. And I also think it's probably going to be the only game that I'm going to end up playing this weekend. Happy gaming everyone!

The game definitely deserves it. I personally still haven't beaten the game yet, even after putting 155 hours into it simply because I end up getting bored by the time I get to the next key part of the story. I probably should just try to go straight to the objectives that will lead me to a conclusion rather than going around and trying to complete a lot of the side content.

There's just too much for me to deal with and explore with the time that I have available to me, but I have had quite a few memories made, and great experiences in the game. I just can't see myself ever bringing this game to full completion, I think it was sour my opinion of the overall game. I more or less had to do the same thing with BOTW, but that game didn't have a bunch of sky areas, and the depths below to deal with as well. It was a lot easier to manage. There is plenty of incredible content for those that want to stick around to see it all though.

When creating new things, everyone seems to pull inspiration from somewhere. This is no different. Knowing the source of the inspiration though, can lead to some pretty interesting facts. It kind of helps you get into the mind of the people that made some of your favorite games.

I mean, I totally get it. Sometimes you don't know how useful an item that you have is until you actually have a situation to where you would be able to take advantage of it. That has happened to me countless times, and when you buy those extra accessories, or systems that you think you may never use in the circumstances that you bought them for become useful, it can be a pretty awesome feeling, knowing that you don't have to go out and buy anything else to make it work. Sometimes life events can create new opportunities for ways to enjoy things.

It's definitely one of those games that I never got around to playing. I only had a select catalog of Nintendo 64 games when I was a kid, and even though we had plenty of opportunities to rent Nintendo 64 games from my local store, I never really had much of an interest in a snowboarding game. I may give it a go on the Nintendo 64 app, but I honestly can't see myself spending a whole lot of time with it. I think the time for me to get addicted to a game like that, it has passed. It is definitely a critical piece of Nintendo's history though, and fans really should have gotten a new one by this point.

Reading the opinions of others around Christmas time does do my heart some good, especially whenever we have such a light-hearted, and friendly group here on Nintendo Life. There were a ton of great questions presented in the letters, and a lot of great responses given out. I really appreciate articles like these. It can definitely do the heart good.

This one is easily the North American variant. The blue sky background really pops in this one, and add so much to the art style.

I mean, I did better than I thought I would considering I have been very busy with my PlayStation 5. 10/15.

It definitely deserves it. It is a pretty awesome game with many memorable elements/characters.

This one is an easy European variant vote for me. I preferred the zoomed out art, gray background.

At the very least, thanks for the memories. All good things to an end at some point, and due to our current technological age, its time has passed. I am glad I was able to experience an E3 with my brother while I still had the chance. Those are memories I will never forget.

This is pretty much just like the free holiday stuff they released for Sonic Frontiers. Hard to argue with free seasonal stuff in my opinion.

I thought it was a cool moment though it did not evoke the same emotions that older Zelda entries gave me. I think the lack of necessity for the Master Sword most of the time diminished the experience.

I didn't even watch The Game Awards, but I certainly agree that the primary focus should have been on the developers, and not on side content and trailers. This was a baffling decision considering its namesake.

The votes for this one is overwhelming. The North American variant takes the cake for good reason. The image quality is sharper and has almost all of the same features as the Japanese variant, but in a more controlled, concise structure. I voted for that variant as well.

It is just about guaranteed that I will be playing primarily Elden Ring on PlayStation 5 this weekend. I still have many bosses to fight, weapons to collect, and places to explore. Happy gaming everyone!

Pretty cool stuff! I may jump in at some point this season though I am pretty busy playing other games at the moment.

I feel like the North American variant has a more refined and polished color palettes o I voted for that one. This is certainly a close call in terms of wcotinf though! It is nearly split down the middle!

I am primarily just waiting patiently for Dragon Quest XII. I adored Dragon Quest XII and I cannot wait for the newest entry. The franchise as a whole is my comfort food of gaming. The impeccable and memorable soundtrack, interesting characters, and innocence abound keeps my soul happy.

Regardless of what it may be, I always enjoy hearing about new things from Sega. I enjoy the company's vibe as a whole, and even though I do not play all of the franchises they have under their belt, I do appreciate what they bring to the gaming industry.

I have been begging for a new Banjo Kazooie game for so long, that I honestly don't know how much faith I have that a new one will live up to the expectations of the franchise's fan base. Video games as a whole are different than what they were back in, and even though 3D platformers have had some stand out moments the last few years, I don't know if they could create anything that would be able to stand out against the golden pedestal that the first Banjo Kazooie is on. Pretty hard to live up to.

I have recently started my first playthrough of Elden Ring on PlayStation 5 this week, and I have been having a blast with the game. I didn't think I would like it quite as much as I do now, and it has helped me appreciate the souls-like genre a ton. I may also sprinkle in some God of War Ragnarök but I have been pretty addicted to the former. Happy gaming to everyone this weekend!

The only game on that entire list I am even remotely interested in is DECAPOLICE. I don't really have any reason to want to play the others.

I kind of expected this considering Sonic Frontiers was a completely new vision for the franchise as a whole while Sonic Superstars is more similar to previous entries which can be off putting to some, especially considering it is a 2D Sonic game. I certainly want to play it though! I also think Sonic Frontiers released at a time where there wasn't a stacked year of releases like there is this year. Tough competition!
