@Itsashame on Switch you can also play it as intended. The version with black bars is created by the devs, not Nintendo.

And if you want to see it how you intended on doing so, you can youtube it. Or play it elsewhere.

@MattmanForever happy for you that you got your refund. Hope you can now admit this whole discussion is blown way out of proportion, and wrongfully targeted at Nintendo.

@MattmanForever you’ve agreed to Nintendo’s terms so you know they can enforce censorship wherever they like.

If you are annoyed by it afterwards: Just don’t preorder mature games. Easy.

Same reason why demanding stuff like @rumandcohibas is doing here is just rediculous. We have no rights on Nintendo’s platform. And we agreed to them.

@AussieMcBucket yes, people are so overreacting while in the mean time they could just be watching youtube if they really wanted to see that aoreola and swinging fallus instead of a black bar.

It’s the decision of the developer to develop a version with black bars and it’s their decision to just have that one in and not moderate the other one slightly for Nintendo audiences.

@MattmanForever guess what. Nintendo also has terms of use for their system which lets them enforce strict content guidelines.

You agreed upon them. Or most likely skipped reading them like 99.999% of users.

@Dr_Awkward not all censorship. Which is why you have moderators here on this website.

You can’t just say everything about anything or anybody.

@MattmanForever forced censorship? come on man it’s a game. What an overreaction from a lot of people here. Penciled nudity… ok.

Again, i don’t think NoA has anything to do with this, i think it has to do with the studio taking the easy way out.

@Dr_Awkward bit of an overreaction. if you really need it, you can find nipples and genitals elsewhere on the internet.

@Diowine cyberpunk was censored in Japan.

I think this is AdHoc Studios taking the easy way out, releasing one version on all eshops. In Japan there’s a lot more censorship on male genitals, thus those have to be censored. I think they decided to let’s censor all versions then, and just remove the toggle and we’re done.

@Dee123 yeah, after independence the US decided to create their own version of sports played in the commonwealth. Which is why they have baseball instead of cricket and softball, and football instead of football (soccer) and rugby.

Switch 2 probably wasn’t in any contract so Sony decided to skip it.

@Najlosiji because this is a reader’s list. And the top 100 Nintendo list is a writer / editor list in cooperation with IGN. Different voters.

@RazzBerryPie @Bass_X0 oh, you’re right. That’s a bit of a pity.

@liam_doolan there’s also box art of 1080 avalanche at the bottom right of the advertisement. Bit concealed though cause of the age rating.

That would be the game i’d be most hyped for tbh.

@Tyranexx i see and I will tnx!

@Tyranexx sorry, I don’t get it. Until then: Gargarnacl? Or is it: ‘take it with a load of salt’?

I don’t think we’re getting a direct next week. We know most of Nintendo’s up until March, and major 3d party release schedule up until April. I think Tomodachi life will be Nintendo’z April game so we’re not in a hurry for a direct anymore. I think it’ll be a March direct again and that that’s what we can expect in the years moving forward.

March+June+September for directs sounds about right to me.

@SplatRay001 yes, that’s mouser, he looks tired just after he gets bombed in smb2

I missed him at first though. Your post reminded me that in this movie you should pause it every few seconds to look for references.

@PikminMarioKirby are we there yet?

Wouldnt this be stuff they’d add to a Nintendo Direct?

What do you guys think: Does this mean we most likely have to wait until March?

You’d wonder how it got to this….

@Edd-O yes. Or 4 years on firstpressgames’ chained echoes.

Absolutely trash, that this is allowed. Never EVER order anything at first press games.com. Stay away from them.

@nintendolife, are you perhaps able to also enquire at the developer of chained echoes how he plans to deal with the physical version keeping delayed, just like you did here? I unfortunately do not have the contact details

@ShadLink wouldn’t say no to a great direct to kick-start 2026! Hopefully you’re right 😊

@rvcolem1 that said, I would like 5 years of hype for the next Zelda game! One of the only franchises I’m ok to wait for such a long period.

@OLD64FOREVER Ubisoft did so bad keeping their franchises alive. They have such a legacy they could be banking on…

@UpsideDownRowlet some people probably continued working as a hobby during their Christmas break.

I made a list (sort of a wishlist), games that have not been released on Nintendo systems, but should be able to run on Switch 2. I think most of these will be released in batches in the next two years and new games will release day and date (or at least close). It’s a gamble which one will be announced when.

@cvrator actually he directed doki doki panic, because fun fact, mario bros 2 was called like that in Japan. Can you imagine having that game as your first thing on your resume

This guy is a legend. Worked on all paper marios, most luigi’s mansions, was the producer of punch-out on the wii and mario strikers, etc.

@Anti-Matter digital storefronts happened

@FoxRush good experiences?

@FoxRush agreed. And mighty ape if you only want shipped games.

Sad though that competition is going away.

I mean if the big T continues with his tariff insanity, and the crazy stuff around the AI golden egg goose chase that nobody apart from a few CEO’s asked for, of course stuff will get a price hike. Money wont go to Nintendo though, but to the grabby hands of the billionaires now secretly in charge and behind the madness going on in the US.

Ok. Then put the games on switch to recoup some of that trial and error costs.

Remember when VR was thé technology that would change the world?

We havent learned since from that mistake. Now AI is thé thing.

She looks good, but she doesn’t look as if she would jump out of planes, climb trees and monuments with bare hands, wrangle with snakes, kill if she had to.

Angelina Jolie did have that extra badass flavor, next to being sexy, because she’d do all of that stuff (besides the killing) in real life too.

Oof, the snowdrop engine has actually been really good in recent years…. Hopefully a talented team will pick it up?

These day and date releases are cool because of this . Nintendo is now part of the zeitgeist!

Yeah baby. Indie direct incoming

Hello there lovely people person!

Maybe Splatoon Raiders is the addon for the Switch 2 edition?

Excessive capitalism. It’s what has made the US the horribly run clownshow it currently is.

March 10? Aka Mar10 day?

Missed the kirby air riders theme, just a few months after I finally completed the collection 😭

@MamaSymphonia would you like salt, pepper and a few cardridges with your switch 2, kind sir/madam?

@Anti-Matter agreed. Its very dangerous for a small kid to get attached right away to one brand.

Let it choose.

Also, I bet 100 bucks that Mario Sunshine will be released on NSO on Mario Day (March 10) and a Pokemon stadium game in February.

Yeah baby, love this one, played it numerous times and will do so again on the hardest difficulty! 😃

I’ve only ever played Call of Duty 2 multiplayer.

When going through this list, I think I haven’t missed much.

@PJOReilly cheers! Nice combination of names, good to now know the abbreviation 😉😃. 🇮🇪🍀
