The only writers I trust under the Ziff umbrella are all here at NL so I'll solely take Ollie's opinion to carry any weight.

@sammarkvoort Exactly!!!!! Isn't that what we all asked for from the demo???

@cyrus_zuo I'm glad you enjoyed Other M.

As always, Vroom in the Night Sky for me.

The only video game worth its salt.

I can't wait for Vroom in the Night Sky 2!

@the_beaver Glad you enjoyed it and of course scores are subjective but to me it was a Metroid game in name alone and barely worth a 5/10 at best. I'd rather replay Other M.

To me (and maybe I'm in the minority here) twin stick is the modern version of tank controls. And I'll only put up with them in RE4 these days.

As soon as the Saudis took control of EA they finally started making good decisions.

(That's the talking point all you reporters need to stick to or else you know what may happen.)

I had my doctor insert my catheter after work last night so I will be able to play another 48+ hours of Vroom in the Night Sky without having to ever leave my couch.

I've watched the trailer for PoL 1 a couple times and it looks good. With 2 on it's way it may finally be time to buy the OG on hopefully a deep sale.

This article is begging to get the comment section closed but I'm just happy more people (no matter their geopolitical situation) will be able to enjoy Switch news and info.

I played the one and only video game I have played everyday since it's glorious release date on 3.3.17:

VROOM IN THE NIGHT SKY!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't wait for a 2026 of more daily VROOM!

Parents should have full control to monitor and limit their children's online activity while gaming.

Adults should not have to deal with any sort of online gaming censorship so long as what they say and do is within the bounds of their nation's laws.

I can't wait for AI to replace all the virtue signaling Western developers. That glorious day cannot come fast enough;

Vroom in the Night Sky as always. I will be playing that continuously all weekend. I will only take short breaks when I feel the unstoppable urge to get some time in with Hotel Mario.

I remember waiting in line all day hoping Switch Vouchers would still be available when it was my turn. If they were that meant I was able to feed my family that night.

I have no Idea how my loved ones and I will manage without them.

The NOA President is a stooge in place to spin whatever NCL tells them to do to get the round-eye market on board. Reggie was the only one able to make the position more than that because he is a true creative. I doubt we will ever see an NOA President as in tune with the fandom again.

I play Vroom in the Night Sky every Christmas.

My family has 5150'd me 5 Christmas' in a row but I will deal with 72 hours in a padded room each year to keep the tradition of having my family watch me play the best game ever.

I'm typing this from my local asylum...........or at least I think I am.

Merry Christmas!

As always, Vroom in the Night Sky for me.

The best game ever made after Hotel Mario.

I have the Pixel 9 Pro Fold and it is the coolest phone I've had since my first ever cell, the Motorola Startac back in the 90's.

Their policies and hiring/collaboration practices over the past years led to this.

Alarmo is my all time favorite Nintendo game. I used to have a pretty big collection of games from N64 to Switch 2 but after getting Alarmo I threw them all in the trash and am so very happy with that decision.

As always it will be Vroom in the Night Sky for me!

The greatest game ever made!

You all remember when Crang controlled that weird looking human body from the lower stomach? Because obviously that's where all the controls would be located.

Do you all fully focus on a game as you play? I'm old so it's not a youngster thing but I like to have the TV on when I play handheld Switch 2. As a result, playing games like this aren't my bag. They're the game version of a subtitled movie. They better be all time greats or really fun (Train to Busan, half of Godfather 2, etc) for me to give them my all. Zelda is my all time fav series and I just couldn't get behind Cadence of Hyrule. So if that can't do it for me, I doubt anything will.

The pitch for this game: "It's basketball Rocket League. But here's the twist....It's significantly more difficult to play and also less exciting".

Who knows if the game will suck but from the trailers this is how you do DEI right. Speaking as someone who often gets annoyed by forced diversity, I don't see how anyone could get upset about this. The representation of the handicapped in this game appears to be done perfectly and I'm looking forward to playing this game.

Are current employees at NL not allowed to have Twitter links in their bio?

As always, I'll spend another weekend non-stop playing Vroom in the Night Sky.

If Tony Hawk kept Ollie the Magic Bum in the game it would have easily topped Mario Kart.

@LastFootnote Good call. I'm not sure how I was off that badly. I'm pretty sure I heard it on a podcast or something but now I'm thinking I probably misheard. I deleted the original comment. Thanks for the correction.

Without Ollie the Magic Bum no soundtrack or polished visuals could ever make this game worth buying.

I'm very happy with my switch 2 and I'm enjoying it quite a bit but overall I'm a little bit disappointed that Nintendo went in this direction. It's the safe direction, Nintendo not known for being safe. My entire life they would always come out with a new console that was inventive and broke norms and was fun and I know they failed with the Wii U and they didn't do super great with the GameCube and 64 but they also had the Wii and DS.

I wasn't expecting anything groundbreaking. We all knew a more powerful switch was the way they were going but it's somewhat disappointing nonetheless.

Am I wrong or when you use Cow on a bike she clearly has a dirty butt?

It's on brand for real cows in general but I just noticed it today and I had to do a double take cause I thought there was no way Nintendo would do that.

It made me chuckle.

Another reason why Cow is 100% the best character in MKW.

This is the first time I ever voted for a cover art that wasn't USA and I'm still gonna lose. Japan is way too busy, The fancy tea lad art is better than the American version and overall the best.

@mouseclicker Please let me know what I said that was bigoted.

I am a huge Disney fan. IMO he was the most creative person in modern times. I go to Disney World maybe 15 times a year. I love all things Walt Disney.

I 100% believe that Shigeru Miyamoto is the closest living person we have to Walter Elias Disney.

I feel lucky to be alive at the same time as Shigeru Miyamoto to witness him carve out his place in the history of creative geniuses. I love how he now has his own parks and movies. It just makes me so happy.

When people use blue sky to post about being laid off it tells me the layoffs were probably a good decision by the company. Here's to an overall stronger and more streamlined Playtonic!

@spiderman0616 My favorite food group is microplastics. I'm in favor of Switch 2 boxes being double or triple the current size. All digital purchases should be banned in favor of plastic cased physical media.

@Duncanballs This comment is more painful than my years spent in the Gulag.

@BirdoDidNothingWrong OMG, I'm so sorry. I should have never made light of the true horror so many have endured during the Console Wars that have raged for decades just to make a dumb joke. Please accept my sincere apology. I will be better going forward.

@donv2135 Game Keys are significantly worse than any war crime that has ever been committed.

I can't wait for this game. It was my all-time favorite 3DS game and my plan is to play this until however long it takes before I either max everything out or get sick of it and then go buy a Switch 2.

I'll be holding off on the switch too until I'm done with the new fantasy life. I've been waiting for that game forever. The 3DS one was amazing and it'll take me probably 3 months at least to get through or do we to get through enough of it where I'm happy. And by that time I'm hoping they'll be plenty of switch twos around.

Hobbits don't look like that in the books.

Just filled out the form for what to be called in the credits. I went with: "I Wish I Never Backed This Game".

I play video games so I don't have to read books.

Well Australia is upside down so I guess it makes sense.
