It’s gone… dang. I was missing two as well.

my entire life is a lie

@Crockin LOL, your profile picture matches your comment perfectly.

i mean we’ve also been waiting five years for a new mainline mario game

I will never understand how people find SM64 scary.

Why do we even have 2 Splatoon games on the same console?

IF NO ONE GOT ME
I KNOW SAKURAI GOT ME
CAN I GET AN AMEN?

I really hope their next console has that Nintendo-y feel. Right now every home screen and menu is the same and it just kinda stinks. No personality, no variation, just grey on grey and a simple game selection interface.

Who the heck stuffs their starter in a box?

Smash Ultimate in general. How is THAT not on here?

Gotta love how we’re all in unanimous agreement that directs are great.

My favorite is probably the one where I recreated the infamous 7 Grand Dad title screen in SMO.

@Not_Soos

Perfect lineup. This is my dream direct.

More retro revivals please! ^-^

Of course this thread derailed into Mother 3, haha. Even if it did get localized they would have to cut a LOT of content out so it’s probably best it stays like this.

“ While Nintendo Life is based out of the UK, we found it difficult to rank this tea-based Pokémon any higher than 11th. “

Mate, it’s number 9.

So… it’s a Super8?

The 1993 movie wasn’t that bad and I’ll die on that hill. Hopefully this movie is better despite Illumination working on it.

I can kinda see it but not really. The idea of Bowser speaking makes me scared.

Kinda Off-Topic but not really because the Mario movie is mentioned in the article but it’s not the main focus: How are people more surprised by Chris Pratt playing Mario than Jack Black playing Bowser?

This approach is fine only in some cases. Take Splatoon, for example. It works because there’s already a substantial amount of content at launch due to the online mode and it being infinitely replayable due to that. This DOESN’T work for Sports titles because, well, they’re sports games. They’re usually one trick ponies because you can’t come up with like 12 different ways to play tennis. That’s absurd. There’s usually not even much content there to begin with since the fun is you feeling like you’re there, as Michael Jordan against Kobe Bryant.

Content isn’t exactly the main focus of sports games, but this business model is still pretty crappy as they’ve done this with non-sports games (Kirby Star Allies, Smash Bros. Ultimate with Spirits, etc.) and if they go forward with this model they may end up ruining their company. It’s not exactly something we wish but it’s like they’re asking for it, releasing unfinished games just to get more money because they think we’re none the wiser. It’s disheartening how Nintendo is to their fans. Sometimes I wonder why I love this company so much anyway.

It’s probably Mario.
