Miyamoto even mentioned it in the SNW Direct so I really do expect it to be coming very soon. It just feels like the right time.

Also Donkey Kong 64 is one of the best games ever made. Just wanted to put that out there.

I used to love this game on pc back in the day. Playing it on console will feel weird but the review did take some of my worries away. I'll probably pick this up some day.

Absolutely! It will be a combined Nintendo Direct/Indie Word/Partner Showcase/Switch 2 reveal/Zelda Movie Direct/Pokemon Presents. The Indie World will end with Silksong. This will also be where Wind Waker and Twilight Princess are finally revealed for Switch. It will be announced December 11th and air at the same time as the Game Awards.

I checked and it has a 12+ rating in Japan. How on earth did it get rejected in the west? Surely it could've gotten a 16+ or even 18+ rating here and would've been fine.

I bought it for the sake of preservation, though I haven't touched the game since it first released.

This game isn't available in my region but I've been playing it through other means and been having a blast. Though it's probably a good thing I'm prevented from spending money on it.

@PikminMarioKirby I still haven't played the Luigi's mansion series because I want to start with the first one and am still waiting for it to come to Switch

@Yoshi3 anyone saying that hasn't played the Oracle games. They're more different from each other than BotW and TotK are. They have completely unique maps and gameplay elements.

I still haven't played this game so that's actually a spoiler for me. Though that's not the first time I've seen that spoiler unfortunately.

@Pipulitoch yeah over here games sell for around 55 Euros on release day depending on what retailer you buy from. Then the price usually goes down further as time goes on. But the official price that's on the eShop stays 60 which is ultimately what retailers base it on. So if it was 50 Euros to start with it would then be closer to 40 at retailers making it much more affordable.

I wish Nintendo priced more of their lower budget games at €50. Don't get me wrong I love Returns, I actually prefer it over Tropical Freeze, but from the looks of it this is just a bare minumum HD upscale that adds the 3DS content. It shouldn't cost the same as Mario Odyssey. Especially when Prime Remaster is randomly €40 when it actually deserved to cost more.

I would love to get this game but I can't really justify it at €60 when I already have the Wii version.

If they add a new game every week this could actually be very cool and give something to look forward to each week.

If they add a bunch of games randomly with months between them like they do for the NSO consoles though... yeah who am I kidding that's totally what they're going to do.

I mean, considering the original is already on the Switch, it wouldn't really make sense to put the remaster on the same console. Switch 2 makes a lot more sense.

@JohnnyMind I'm not really a fan of horror either but last Halloween I tried Resident Evil (the remake on Switch) for the first time and absolutely loved it. I love Metroid and Zelda games and as weird as it might sound RE gave me big metroidvania vibes. Just mixed with the survival aspect of limited resources. It has difficulty options too so you can start on easy like I did to get to know the game (I went on to do multiple playthroughs). I highly recommend it.

I'm planning on playing RE4 for the first time this Halloween. I've heard good things so I'm excited to try it out.

YEEEESSS! The Sacred Cards is included I'm so happy. I'll have to get this now.

@Samalik it's sad really. Unfortunately he doesn't actually care about censorship and freedom of speech. He just wants Twitter to turn into his own echo chamber. Anything else gets left behind.

I hate how being against censorship of any kind and tampering with the creator's vision puts me in league with Elon Musk and the like.

Stop telling creators to censor and change things in the name of 'representation'. I'm a guy but I play Splatoon as the girl since it's the main character. Same in Metroid games as Samus is obviously a girl. If a game has a non-binary mc I will play as them. I don't care about representation as long as the game is good. Minorities are perfectly capable of doing the same without games being changed by an outside force to fit their needs.

I literally barely notice it. It's only when people point it out that I actually see it. When I'm immersed in the game it's not an issue at all. I was honestly more bothered by it in Link's Awakening because of the screen transitions dropping to 30, though even that didn't really impact my enjoyment of it.

I'm only 2 dungeons in but to me this is everything I wanted TotK to be. Mixing freedom with traditional dungeons and Zelda elements and a linear story. (TotK's temples were just watered down reskinned Divine Beasts). I really hope the next 3D Zelda takes heavy inspiration from this game doesn't repeat the same mistakes BotW made yet again.

Anyway 9.5/10 so far.

@Druidsbrook see that's the weird thing. I recently got back into it for about 2 weeks where I played a lot and I didn't see any gacha at all. Just "buy paid currency to get Pokemon or skins, or grind coins to do so for free." The only thing remotely like gambling was a thing where you collect random emblems to change your stats, but this felt more like a fun sidemode and was something you could do for free after every match.

@Dimjimmer well, Switch 2 will be revealed this fiscal year, so I think there's only one answer.

Sounds like it's time for the Switch 2

'A The Lord of the Rings Game' bugs me so much.

@Lazz that's very confusing. Either way the first game is fun for the novelty but I don't really need more of it.

I completely missed Goat Simulator 2 so I'll be skipping this one.

I'm still on version 1.1.2 which has the extremely easy duplication glitch. It allowed me to max out all the costumes. I never got the unbreakable Master Sword but I guess I still have the easier method available to me if I ever feel like getting it.

As much as I love Tropical Freeze, I actually prefer Returns. It's my favourite DKC game. So this is great news to me.

Just how big was that bra for them all to fit? Switch cardridges are really small I know but 350 of them. And shouldn't there be something else in the bra as well? ...I'd better stop asking questions.

If it wasn't 299 and if I had space in my house I would totally get this.

While I do feel a bit bad for this guy, the fact that he has a GoFundMe page for criminal charges is absolutely insane.

"Press 'X' to meow"

Reads like a 10/10 to me.

I wish he applied this logic to some of the echo fighters like Daisy

A few days ago I got Yugioh LotDLE (Konami game) at 90% off for around 6 bucks on the eshop so I'd advice anyone to just wait for a good sale on this one.

It makes sense to me. If the developer has some bad publicity around them Nintendo wouldn't want that to affect "their" game. Also, they don't want the game to seem "lesser" because it's made by a third party. Selling it as just another Nintendo game is the safest thing they can do to avoid any controversy and to keep consistent branding.

Battle League Football is the most disappointing game I've ever played. It feels like it was made specifically to insult me personally. It's the only time I've ever regetted buying a game.

I beat Snake Rattle 'n' Roll and wouldn't recommend it to anyone. The first half is fine but the second half is pure hell even with rewind. The final boss is actual torture.

Waking up to this message today sure was something. I don't really even know the guy and only happened to back Eiyuden on a whim, but reading this message had me tearing up.

I never played this one. They should put it on NSO to celebrate the 20th anniversary.

Pokemon FireRed

Please add the Sacred Cards from GBA to that collection. I love that game even though the battle system is basically rps.

In-game purchases is absolutely wild when it's a remaster of a 3DS game and any new content should be free to help sell the game.

These sales are always so annoying because for some reason the shovelware games appear high on the list. Like I don't understand why "Hentai Girls" would show up before Sonic Mania. The eShop needs a massive rework on the Switch 2.

-The difficulty of the Ogre Oustin’ minigame has been adjusted.

Thank god. Now let's hope they didn't actually make it harder.

Common Aonuma L

For this it's definitely King K. Rool. That had me shaking as much as the screen was shaking during the lead up to that. But my actual favourite trailer is "Everyone is Here". Nothing will be able to top the sheer emotion I felt seeing Pichu on the screen.

@PersianZSR
No, I want them to sell it to us like they did with the BCP. Have a season pass each year that adds new cups and characters. But do it from the start instead of waiting 5 years for it like Deluxe did. Basically build the game around the concept of DLC so that new content can easily be added without being limited by arbitrary restrains such as the cup selection screen not being able to have space for new cups or character costumes not being a thing.

@Paulo But if Tour is MK9 that would make it the sequel to MK8 right? So it should have tracks from MK8 which it does not. Instead it's the other way around. MK8 has Tour tracks and refers to it as a past game. There's a reason they ported all the Tour tracks to MK8. It's to have them in a main Mario Kart game. Tour is not Mario Kart 9.

Mario Kart 9
-16 Nitro Tracks
-16 Retro Tracks
-Elimination based Battle Mode
-Mission Mode
-A good starting roster
-New and unique items possibly tied to characters like DD
-Constant DLC until it's time for Mario Kart 10

DLC includes
-Every Mario character ever (yes that includes WarioWare) and crossover characters
-Every retro track
-Brand new tracks and crossover tracks

That should about do it. Obviously the game needs to play well and feel different enough from MK8 with even better visuals.

This ranking doesn't really make sense to me. It should be either about the songs themselves or about what they do, not both. Bolero of Fire shouldn't be anywhere near the bottom song wise but based on what it does it makes sense for it to be there.

The Water Temple is great. It's only annoying because of having to swap the boots, which if you don't know where to go you'll have to do a lot. But I love it's atmosphere and music.
