I own it twice on Switch and PC and I have played it for 2-3 hours. Maybe I should play it more. My sister has it on Switch and my brother has it on Switch and PC and they have put in around 250 and 100 hours respectively.
From the last 335 days not 366. We must rise up against this "year" in review erasing of December. Next we'll be removing February as it's not a real month with its sub 30 days shenanigans.
@Pillowpants You could get Mario Wonder for Xmas and complete it before New Year and it would be nowhere on your stats which is disappointing. All these things seem guilty of this and not just gaming round ups.
@Arcane-Fer I am enjoying Suicide Squad. It's above average in my book. If the list was biggest commercial failures then I think Concord would top that list.
@Knightrider1 It's the games that make a console launch and with Nintendo, more than the competition, the features. No one bought a Wii based on what it looked like but based on motion control bowling. Hopefully early in the new year we will get a look at the thing in action.
Nearly 5 hours into Brothership so far. My first Mario and Luigi game, and I make the 'B' button mistake with Luigi..Enjoying it so far. Maybe I will give the 3DS games a whirl next year while my 3DS is still alive considering I own all 4 of them. Just the DS exclusive one is on my Wii U.
I don't really have anywhere to rest my Switch after I have done my business on the toilet. I'm not going to balance it precariously on the edge of the bath ready to drop and take out a wayward spider on it's way to a drip from the tap near the plughole. There's always shampoo ingredients to read if I get desperate for entertainment.
I'm more impressed that Pokemon GO is still raking in the cash all these years later. At least you won't see grown adults fighting in stores over these virtual Pokemon cards but we will get lots of YouTube videos opening virtual packs instead.
Still got time for a few more ports of the games listed by others above before they put the final nail in the coffin for the Switch. I reckon Color Splash or Woolly World will be next on the list. Maybe a May or June release for the next one?
@Lilith9940 One of the other prerequisites is that you have to complete the 4th dungeon. I was wondering why it didn't show so kept going through the story and went back and there it was
@Member_the_game Your comment hit me right in the nostalgias. Many Saturdays from 9am to 9pm spent with me taking my Mega Drive round my mate's house and spending too much time mastering Streets of Rage 2 and not getting much better Street Fighter 2 on the SNES before it hit the Mega Drive. Eventually got a SNES myself as those Saturdays really sold the system to me. I sold my Mega Drive eventually but still have the SNES.
How long before this gets shut down? Will we get to stage where someone will mention they are doing something with a Nintendo property and it will be shut down before anything is shared? That is the Nintendo dream I guess.
Nintendo are waiting for Switch to be the best selling console of all time before they can start the marketing campaign proclaiming the next console the sequel to the best selling console of all time. Ordering 10 OLEDs now to expedite the process.

Re: Your 'Nintendo Switch Year In Review 2024' Stats Are Available Now
I assume as with the other services that do this that December gaming is lost to the void. Your 11/12 of a year in Review?

Re: 3D Print Of Rumoured 'Switch 2' Design Gives Us A Closer Look At OLED Size Comparison
If the Switch 2 does have a wider cart slot could that mean the Switch 2 carts will have a nub like the 3DS carts?
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's Game Boy Library With Another Classic
@Xeacons ...Nintendo.
That is the only explanation needed.
Re: Random: Hitting Mario & Luigi: Brothership's Max Level Takes An Insane Amount Of Patience
I'm 56 hours in and only at level 49. Getting close to the end. Good to know the grind to 100 isn't really worth the time to invest.

Re: Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition Confirmed For Switch
Just started my Wii U playthrough last week. I think I will scrap it now and hold fire for this with the online features.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Sonic X Shadow Generations
I do love a good campiang. Still way behind on Sonic games. Still back on Sonic 4 and Sonic Adventure 2. It will be a while before I get to this one.
Re: Anbernic's New Controller Promises "Minimal Drift" With Hall Effect Joysticks And Triggers
Never really understood the LED lighting on controllers. Who looks at their controller lighting up like a Christmas tree when playing games?
Re: Nintendo's Latest Job Listing Is On The Hunt For An Intellectual Property Lawyer
They'll soon be knocking door to door so make sure you don't have any Nintendo emulators on your devices or Mario pictures by your kids on the fridge.

The first rule of Playtest is 'Don"t talk about Playtest.'

$100 for an alarm clock has got me a bit nervous for the New Super Switch U Advance's, or whatever it will be called, price.

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give The Legend Of Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom?
It's about an 8 from me so far with around 6 hours played. The lack of real combat is losing it a point.
Re: Nintendo Patents Filed After Palworld's Release Suggest Lawsuit Prep Started Months Ago
So they are trying to indirectly patent riding horses in games? Or is it just fictional creatures you can't ride in which case dragons are off limits?
Re: Forget The Console Wars, Miyamoto Says Nintendo Has Always Followed Its Own Path

Re: Level-5's New Yo-Kai Watch 'Holy Horror Mansion' Teaser Supposedly Features AI Artwork
The way most things are going we will soon be getting news stories about things not using AI as using AI seems to be quickly becoming the norm.
Re: The First Review For The Legend Of Zelda: Echoes Of Wisdom Is In
@Rees There better be some biscuits or cake involved to soak up some of that tea.
Re: Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection For Switch Confirmed As "Code In Box" Release (Europe)
I always read 'code in a box' in the style of The Lonely Island song. It makes the news that little bit less terrible.
Re: Rumour: Switch "Successor" Will Be Backwards Compatible, It's Claimed
I hope it is although I can see Nintendo not wanting to so they can upsell us Super Mario Odyssey 4K at a premium.
Re: Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time Has Been Delayed Again
Now a Switch 2 launch title that will get lost against Nintendo's own heavy hitter.
Re: Retailer GAME Is Reportedly Ending In-Store Pre-Orders
I bought my Switch from Game but online. Don't think I will risk a New Super Switch 2U Pro from them.
Re: Random: Zelda Fan Jailed For Carrying Small Master Sword Replica
I thought Nintendo were being a bit harsh when I read the headline. Sub header helped clarify.
Re: Random: Coder Creates Super Mario 64 For The GBA, And It's Looking Excellent

Re: Moonstone Island Launches On Switch Later This Month

Re: It's Official, Netflix Is Working On An Animated Minecraft Series
Will kids give up the YouTube videos of people playing the game to watch this though?
Re: Talking Point: One Year On, Has Everyone Beaten Ganondorf In Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom?
I would have ticked "Still haven't encountered him in Breath of the Wild so this is still sat on my shelf unplayed."
Re: Rumour: 'Switch 2' Said To Be Fully Backward Compatible With A Larger, 1080p Screen
I hope the new button is called Derek.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Paper Mario: Sticker Star (3DS)
The US version is the more violent of the two covers. Europe/Japan just looks like his is trying to complete his Panini album.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Super Bomberman (SNES)
What abomination is that on the North American art?
Re: Rumour: '1-2-Switch: Flashmob Frenzy' Is Apparently Coming Holiday Season 2024
The headline had me for about 10 seconds before I remembered the date.

Re: LEGO Fortnite Is Under Fire For Brand New 'Kits'
All these games hide their prices from people with their random currencies. Would people spend as much if they listed in local currencies?
