@DaGoldenBoo You are probably saying you are wanting grips for each joycon as a pair.
However, I bought the Joy Con 2 Wheels and I like them just as a grip for 2-player horizontal joycons. You can keep tilt controls off, but they give very large shoulder buttons and are more comfortable to hold (much better than just holding the joycons alone horizontally).
The right joy-con stick placement is centered, though. It may be a bit of a reach for a kid’s thumb.
No hate for Seth Rogan, but I would like to see a versatile voice actor hired to voice all the varied expressions we see in DK Bananza. Lean into the goofiness.
@iLikeUrAttitude I guess they are shoulder buttons and not triggers, but I thought the GameCube was the only Nintendo controller to have analog ‘triggers’.
EDIT: I might have misinterpreted your comment. Maybe you are saying that you don’t like the analog triggers. Gotcha.
@Pillowpants I did get Welcome Tour, but dual mouse mode doesn’t seem fun to play for long periods of time. Mouse mode is a little awkward with the thumb sticks getting in the way of your grip.
@batmanbud2 I forgot how rough the camera is in GC Wind Waker. Obviously it didn’t bother me back then, but I think the HD version is better for its improved camera controls.
I sometimes wonder how many people have clicked to ignore me in the forums. Guess I will never know. And I can’t ask them to un-ignore me since they won’t see this message. 😉
@JohnnyMind Unfortunately, things that you collect are not marked on the map. P-Switch missions that you try are also not marked on the map. So if you fail and decide to try later, you may not remember where it was. ☹️
BOTW marked shrines that you found. Plus you had markers you could place on the map. None of those features are here.
@Exerion76 Dang. I know it is a hassle, but I wonder if Nintendo could fix/replace it. This is a major purchase. You deserve to have a better working device.
Honest question for those that think Welcome Tour should have been a pack-in title. Would you get rid of the Mario Kart bundle? I can’t see them having two pack-in games.

Re: Poll: Has Donkey Kong Bananza Made You Feel Ill?
I haven’t had issues, but could see a problem if I went crazy with the map or the camera.
Parents, probably don’t watch your young kids play. 😉
Re: Mario Kart Tour Announces Limited-Time "Mario Kart World Special Campaign"
I am surprised that none of the games have a New Donk City level.
Re: Random: Shigeru Miyamoto Did Exactly What We Did When Playtesting Donkey Kong Bananza
@Medic_alert Thanks! I am going to switch the controls. Several times I found myself doing the wrong action.

@ROOCIS “…haven’t even scratched the surface yet.” 😂 😂😂
Well said. Pun intended?

Re: Donkey Kong Bananza's Destruction Idea Came From A Goomba With Hands
Not the same thing at all, but reminded me that there is an indie game where you play a Goomba like creature. Wunderling DX.
Re: Opinion: Honestly, I'm So Glad We Had To Wait For Donkey Kong Bananza
@OHB123 Great article! ❤️
I am enjoying the P-switch missions. And I periodically revisit Welcome Tour.
I have started using the Zelda Notes to track down more Korok seeds. I will also use it track down the wells in TOTK.
Looking forward to the new DK. 😊

@rvcolem1 I was just thinking that. Wreck-It Ralph did it best. 😊

@dartmonkey Ah, gotcha. My page might not have loaded correctly. I see it now. Thanks!

@dartmonkey FYI - Turbo Circuit is missing in the descriptions.
Re: Random: Yes, Pope Leo Really Did Sign A Popplio Pokémon Card
@atmb82 The IGN article has a photo credited to the Vatican media. Seems legit.
Others may claim the card is theirs. Not sure about other reports.
Re: Random: Yes, Pope Leo Really Did Sign A Popplio Pokémon Card
Congrats to ReptileCake!
EDIT: The IGN interview mentions the pen he used. He forgot to bring a better working pen.

@GoldenSunRM I haven’t played it for many years, but my family loves Chibi-Robo!
It is basically a cute 3D metroidvania. 😊
Re: Game Builder Garage Fan-Made 'Direct' Reveals Multiple Amazing New Creations Alongside Switch 2 Update
@Colonel1000 @SegaBlueSky 😂
It may not be for everyone, but the nice thing is that this launched at $30. 😊
Re: Game Builder Garage Fan-Made 'Direct' Reveals Multiple Amazing New Creations Alongside Switch 2 Update
I’ll have to add my game to gbgShop. I made a Joust like game. 😊

Re: Nintendo Download: 26th June (North America)
Not in the Irem Collection, but Irem makes me think of Moon Patrol, which I have on Arcade Archives. 😊
Re: Review: Tron: Catalyst (Switch) - A Repetitive & Forgettable Time On The Grid
@Teksette I enjoyed the TRON cartoon. They should bring that back. 😊
Re: Review: Tron: Catalyst (Switch) - A Repetitive & Forgettable Time On The Grid
@Smithicus Not necessarily. I believe the previous TRON game was a visual novel adventure (TRON: Identity).
Re: Review: Nintendo Switch Online GameCube Controller - The Return Of The King
@Aurumonado The octagonal gates worked great for games like Super Monkey Ball for running in a straight line. 😊
Re: Nintendo Confirms The Release Date For Drag X Drive On Switch 2
@chardir For now, August is also getting the Kirby and the Forgotten Land DLC.
Re: Review: Nintendo Switch Online GameCube Controller - The Return Of The King
@Aerona Truth. GBA games on the GBA player were not fun with the GC controller D-pad. 😂
This new GC controller, though, may have a better D-pad.

Re: Nintendo Confirms The Release Date For Drag X Drive On Switch 2
@FoxyDude I do like the Tron vibes, but it may not fit this game. Usually Nintendo goes more colorful.
Re: Nintendo Confirms The Release Date For Drag X Drive On Switch 2
@Nintoz @Grumblevolcano Thanks! I forgot about Forgotten Land’s update. 😊

Re: Nintendo Confirms The Release Date For Drag X Drive On Switch 2
I don’t think this will be Nintendo’s only August release.
Maybe not a new title, but another game with Switch 2 enhancements.
Re: Mailbox: Switch 2 Price Point, Wind Waker Vs. HD, Drip-Feed Updates - Nintendo Life Letters
@batmanbud2 I forgot how rough the camera is in GC Wind Waker. Obviously it didn’t bother me back then, but I think the HD version is better for its improved camera controls.
Re: Mailbox: Switch 2 Price Point, Wind Waker Vs. HD, Drip-Feed Updates - Nintendo Life Letters
Great letters and responses. 😊
I am hoping that World of Goo 2 is updated for Joy-Con 2 mouse support.

Re: Review: Savage Raven EDC Switch 2 Carry Case - A Sleek Alternative To Nintendo's Official Offering
@themightyant It covers about just over half of the cartridge, so you can see most of the top half of the label.
The part visible is about equal parts the red Switch logo at the top and the cartridge art/title below that.
Re: Review: Savage Raven EDC Switch 2 Carry Case - A Sleek Alternative To Nintendo's Official Offering
@DWWM I just got this case too! The Switch 2 fits very snuggly in it. It won’t be moving around at all. 😊
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Hoping To See In The Donkey Kong Bananza Direct?
@martynstuff Good call! I can totally see a DK Bananza theme. 🍌
I am surprised that there hasn’t been a Tetris 99 theme for Mario Kart World (yet).
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Hoping To See In The Donkey Kong Bananza Direct?
I’ll watch it, but I want some things to remain a surprise. 😊
Re: Talking Point: How Are You Finding Mario Kart's Open World?
Mario Odyssey doesn’t quite mark things in the same way as BOTW, but it has a checklist for the moons. So you could see how many were left in an area.
Re: Talking Point: How Are You Finding Mario Kart's Open World?
I am enjoying the p-switch missions, but they need to mark things that you find on the map (like BOTW).
And give a few markers that I can put down (like BOTW).
Re: Mario Kart World Guide - All Courses, Cups, Missions, Collectibles, Tips & Tricks
@JohnnyMind Unfortunately, things that you collect are not marked on the map. P-Switch missions that you try are also not marked on the map. So if you fail and decide to try later, you may not remember where it was. ☹️
BOTW marked shrines that you found. Plus you had markers you could place on the map. None of those features are here.
I hope that they fix this in a future update.

Re: Poll: Are You Happy With Switch 2's Screen? Because Some People Certainly Aren't
It looks great to me, but I will take people at their word if they are having screen issues.
Re: PSA: Remember, You Can 'Fix' The Camera In Zelda: The Wind Waker On Switch 2
@McBurn @Polvasti We really need that HD port!
Re: Poll: So, What's Your Favourite Course In Mario Kart World?
I am surprised with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Tour, and World that we never got a New Donk City course.
