If Nintendo is publishing Marvel Ultimate Alliance, how about Wolverine or another Marvel character???

I hope they bring out an 'indie pack' for characters that seem to have made their spiritual homes on Nintendo consoles. Shovelknight isn't going to happen because he's an assist trophy but hoping for Hollow Knight, Owlboy and Quote from Cave Story, or insert suggestions here.

Poor graphics or good graphics, matters not to me.

It really winds me up when developers use the Switch's power as an excuse for deciding not to develop for it simply because they can't make the aesthetic match other consoles.

I'd love something like Red Dead on Switch. If to make it work it means sacrificing a lot of details and a few rough edges then so be it. As long as the game still plays well then why not just go for it.

If all a game has going for it are the visuals then there's something wrong.

@ShadJV The last game I played was Black & White (1), proteins and calciums etc increased base stats, what did that refer to? IV or EV? Or something different? Can't remember.

Gender neutral, just a sign of the times we live in

@BlueBlur101 love his obsession with Knack and Bubsy

@BlueBlur101 best critic on youtube

@Tendogamerxxx does not one use the joy con grip? Nothing small about that?

Shows how slow this year has been for Nintendo as a developer/ publisher when the only exclusive game to be nominated is Octopath Treveller, and then a handful of games in the Family category which does nothing but cement peoples preconception of Nintendo being just for kids and families.

It's been a great year for nindies but other than that what have we had that's nomination worthy other than XC2?

@roadrunner343 There is no justification for not including pro controller compatibility but I'm not arguing against that fact. I just find the excuse that you're going to pass up on a game because you're forced into using joy cons as control method to be farcical. If you really want to play the game then that problem ought to be easily overlooked. I couldn't care less as I have no interest in playing this entry but at least come up with a valid reason not to want to play it.

@carlos82 I could understand this statement if it was a game which required quick reflexes etc but all you're doing is running around and tapping A to interact with stuff or making menu selections. There's nothing uncomfortable about using the joy con pad anyway in my opinion.

Always wanted to try Kingdom New Lands, this one might be a must if it reviews well.

It's definitely the portability factor, and a lot of is nostalgia aswell for me. If an indie game is released on both PS4 and Switch, it's Switch every time for me and I'm willing to pay more for it.

The 8 bit and 16 lookalike games reminds me so much of playing the GBA as a kid and I love it. Can't wait to purchase Moonlighter once I'm done with Spiderman on the PS4 (by the way what a game that is!).

I tell you what was amazing. Philosopher's Stone on the GBA.

@Razer use your eyes to read my comment again.

You'll notice I never mentioned Red Dead 2 and secondly, since when was RDR2 on the PS3?

I used Windwaker as a comparison because of how equally huge both games were on their respective platforms.

You've just embarrassed yourself I'm afraid.

And still he's never played Mario 64.

While we are at it can we get the game renamed as Smash People as I find that the name isn't inclusive to sisters or anyone inbetween.

Nobody finds this stuff offensive. I think it's just trolls on the internet that find stuff to complain about seeking a response.

To prove my point I'm going to tweet to Sega that I want Samba De Amigo to be redesigned so that there is no cultural appropriation with Mexicans. I don't think Mexicans would find it offensive but I'm going to imply that it could.

Watch this space.

@Heavyarms55 I respectfully disagree. Hollow Knight and Slime San was labelled as DLC but was all free of charge.

@Moroboshi876 you'll play them for 5 minutes before trying something different and never playing them again.

I've just joined the darkside and bought myself a PS4. Subscribed immediately to PS NOW, which just highlights what an absolute crock of sh*te Switch Online is.

To come in line with what PS NOW offers, Nintendo would need to offer titles such as Windwaker HD to compare to something like Red Dead on PS3, as well as countless Gamecube and N64 games etc. I'd happily pay £12+ for something similar on Switch.

I don't want to see new characters, would much prefer them to be a surprise as you're playing the game.

What's left to announce out of Nintendo's arsenal of franchises that will propel the Switch once again, after the release of Smash Bros and Pokemon. Animal Crossing, and the next proper instalment of Pokemon, but after that was else would be a huge console seller?

Starfox, Metroid, F-Zero, Luigi's Mansion etc aren't going to do it. So what's left? Hopefully a new Mario Kart or another Zelda?

I put this down to Nintendo's god awful shop front

@zool it's currently on sale for £26, but I've seen copies of the game in store preowned for £10. I'm not touching it until it comes closer to £15.

Easy Allies 7/10. Nintendolife 9/10. Hmmmm

I need to get back into this. Played over 20 hours of it but ended up finding no way of moving forward. I've obviously missed something along the way to prevent me from advancing or whatever but it's been a couple of months now, I wouldn't know where I've already searched or what. Wish there was some sort of hint system or a log of things that you've already achieved etc.

I was put off by the performance issues. Have they been fixed yet? That and is it possible to play this game to voice chat through that godforsaken app?

Said this as soon as BOTW came out. S

Start off in your town, and wander off in any direction you want. Certain areas would still be cut off by surf, cut, strength etc but it should be up to you which HM you search for first in order to explore the map how you want. Pokemon wandering around in real time would be amazing, with certain monsters having different temperaments than others. Some could be peaceful and not wish to immediately engage in battle while others would rush in head first upon first sight. The possibilities would be endless.

Couple this with a Xenoblade style art style and it has the potential to be the best ever.

I know you could get a pair of joy cons with Snipperclips included, but it would have been nice to have got a copy of Mario Party with even just a single joy con for like £50... I'd have bought that instantly. Saying that can you buy single joy cons separately to hypothetically complete the pair?

Bought for £14 from the south african eshop as opposed to £18 on UK shop. Only played it 2 player, co-op is amazing, we enjoyed the 2 player battles but I can imagine that higher player counts would be much more fun

@DeltaPeng me and the brother played with split joy con last night as he forgot his switch, we loved it! Neither of us moaned about using split joy con.

@Gen0neD Xtreme G 3 on the Gamecube was INCREDIBLE!!!!

Good job this has online play. As a board gamer myself, I don't see the point in these style of games if they can only be played locally with friends (like Light Fingers) If you're all in the same room, just play a board game. And no, I don't mean Monopoly or Cluedo.

Would love another game in the same timeline but another few hundred years on, more technological marvels and advancements. Maybe a gun of some sorts, harnessing the power of the guardians or some b*llocks. Another mode of transport like some sort of dune buggy?

Nintendo... You know what to do. Imagine a Stranger Things title exclusive to Switch...

Either that or give it to Quantic Dream

Talk to me when Gamecube VC comes.

Can only play online with friends. I'm out.

@chriscare are you sure? I thought that only the account holder could access the game? Hope I'm wrong!

As for the game suspending on a secondary console, how will it know to suspend if it's playing the game with no wifi connection?

So let me get this straight. Me and my brother could go say 60/40 on a game (60% for the primary account since he'll be the owner of the game). I give him my login details for my account, so that when I'm done with playing the game for the day, night or once completed, he can access it and play using my account on his switch? As for save data, as long as there's more than on save file, we could just use separate files?

O and for them to say 'what are those speical offers? We'll announce more soon' was shambolic. Soon is NOW! They've had all this time to prepare Online and the Direct, for them to say more coming soon. What, are we going to have another Direct for that announcement too? Could have at least given us double points on all purchases in your first week or £5 off any game etc etc... F*cking soon...

I was hoping to god that NES games weren't the only console we'd have access to with Switch Online. When you consider that PS4 and Xbox have access to modern games and in some cases brand new AAA releases, this is very very poor. It shouldn't matter that this is a new product from Nintendo compared to PS and Xbox, this is the competition right now. And besides, who would give a crap about 80% of those NES games if we had access to SNES, N64 and Gamecube?

I don't mind a dumbed down art style, but at least make an effort. For example, Windwaker has simplified art style, but looked absolutely gorgeous. This looks like ass

Me and my brother and sister spent hundreds of hours on those party games! Lots of good memories with this one

This is better than Celeste, hands down

$20 is fine, for cloud saves and the ability to play online alone. But I absolutely could not give a sh*t about NES games. Hopefully SNES Games and GBA games come to the free to play service. Anything beyond that such as N64 and GameCube games I'm happy to pay individually for, but for the love of God can we actually get some access to them?

Looks like the digital version of 7 Wonders Duel. Reviewed very well everywhere else, interested to see what NL makes of it.

Based on Switch's success with indie titles, why on earth wouldn't you prioritize Switch first and then concentrate on other platforms later?
