@Ellie-Moo Sounds like a great time. Yeah, I thought it was quite playable. Firestarter is a great track, no wonder that you can still remember this moment.
I really have to play the rest someday. Got 2097 but I think something is wrong with the disc.
@DaGoldenBoo Yes, it is definitely worth considering.
@Mana_Knight Secret of Mana so much yes! The music alone is sending me to heaven. Child of Light's art direction was so beautiful. I agree with everything you say, great comment.
@DaGoldenBoo Yeah, I am glad that they do not market it as art. Gameplay is often more important to me than an artistic vision. Still watching a painting or playing a game like Final Fantasy X can do the same for me.
@karatekid1612 I played the original PS1 WipeOut a while ago. Cool game and quite challenging, I can only imagine, how cool it was when it released. The soundtrack is interesting, too.
Is the thumbnail implying that Hachiya-San could take Slippy's role? I mean Slippy Toad likes to build stuff too. If so, that is indeed quite the genius thumbnail.
Never played for much longer than an hour per day so far, but I will try to play the whole evening today, because I want to at least finish the P-Switch challenges in Mario Kart World before Bananza's release. It is warm here, but I hope that everything will be fine. Good luck to everyone.
Happy anniversary! One of the best jrpgs and looking at the sales probably quite underrated. I can not say it enough, how I miss the old soul of Final Fantasy.
Okay Nintendo, if you want third party support go for it, but I will not support you or a third party company if you try to sell me a game key card. I only buy full physical releases.
@FishyS
Hope you get better soon! Platformers might be my favourite genre, and judging by the direct, Bananza might be the best one yet, so I am really hyped now.
It was perfect and I felt really hyped during the direct. Teaming up with Pauline was a cool surprise. Seriously, I could sometimes not believe how cool and fun the stuff looked on the screen.
Oh Nintendo, you always make me feel like a little boy again, thank you!
@BringleWorkshop It is interesting to see that your kids are into retro games. I guess classics remain classics. Wish you a great gaming time with them!
These are great numbers and the Switch 2 is still available in Germany. Nintendo is doing the launch right. Mario Kart World is a lot of fun and I like the console. Keep going Nintendo!
This is great news, especially since I do not have NSO anymore and I do not want to renew it. Now I do not have to say goodbye to Splatoon, thanks Nintendo!
@Princess_Lilly Internet. But I was in the retail shop of Saturn today and one of the workers there told me, if I want to buy Switch 2 games or a Switch 2, I have to go to the cash desk, so I think it is available. I wanted to check out Switch 2 games, but everything was at the cash desk, or rather behind it, so I lost interest and left. I will try to check out a bigger Saturn shop next time, to see whether it is the same there.
Of course everyone can have a different experience with stuff like this.
Nice. And the console is easily available in Germany right now. Sounds like Nintendo was not joking around, when they said that they will produce a lot of them.
Yesterday I realised that I really like the feel and look of Switch 1 cartridges. It was kinda funny, like I just now after eight years, realised that they exist. I should like the Switch 2 cartridges and gamecases too.
@Mariotag
Yeah, I love Digimon too. Using AI to make a Digimon partner is something my younger self would love. Why would it be a danger to the multiverse's safety?

Thanks, I know about the story mode, but I do not know anyone who would play the local wireless mode with me.

Re: Miyamoto Views Games As 'Products', Not 'Works Of Art', Says Ex-Nintendo Dev
I agree with those who say it can be both. Final Fantasy IX is a game and a theater performance, for example.
Re: Exclusive: Upcoming Fast Fusion Update For Switch 2 Introduces Photo Mode
@HugoGED
True, I did not even think about it, thanks.
Yeah, please take your time Shin'en. Best to release the physical, when nothing gets added anymore down the line.
Re: Exclusive: Upcoming Fast Fusion Update For Switch 2 Introduces Photo Mode
Waiting for a physical edition.
Re: Nintendo's Summer Deals Discounts Multiple Physical Switch Titles, Save Up To $20 (US)

Cool stuff you bought there for a nice price. I loved playing Visions of Mana.
Re: "It Will Have A Chilling Effect On Game Design" - EU Group Responds To 'Stop Killing Games'
I do not subscripe to NSO anymore, but I would gladly buy a Splatoon game, if I can play offline against NPC's.
Re: Fantasy Life i Switch 2 Physical Release And Photo Mode Update Announced
Awesome! Everything is forgiven. I will definitely get this, thanks Level-5!
Re: Final Fantasy 9's 25th Anniversary Is Here, But There's Nothing On Rumoured Remake
I hope Square Enix returns to this kind of game, when they make a new Final Fantasy. So much class, like watching an epic theater performance.
Thanks for the memories!
Re: Mega Man Is One Of Capcom's "Most Important IPs" Despite No New Games In 7+ Years
My most wanted MegaMan game would be something like MegaMan Legends, but I know that making a game like that nowadays would be challenging.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (5th July)
Playing more Mario Kart World in the evening. Almost 200 P-Switch challenges done.
Happy gaming everyone!

Re: Round Up: The Final Previews Are In For Donkey Kong Bananza
If this will be DK's greatest outing to date, then I will be more than happy. I am just glad that Nintendo gives Donkey Kong the time to shine again.
Edit: Day 1 of course.
Re: Donkey Kong Bananza Developer Has Been Revealed
Yes, this is good to know for sure. Excited to play the new awesomeness from this team.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (28th June)
I will be doing the P-Switch challenges in Mario Kart World. They are surprisingly fun. I think I finished 33 so far.
Happy gaming everyone!
Re: Beat 'Em Up Classic Double Dragon Gets A Modern Revival On Switch This October
Watching the trailer made me feel like in the good old days. Revive will get a physical edition, so I might give it a try someday.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (21st June)
I will enjoy my time with Mario Kart World. Doing the Knockout Tour now. World should easily keep me entertained until Bananza.
Happy gaming everyone!
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Donkey Kong Bananza For Switch 2?
It was day one before the direct. Now it is still day one, but I am awaiting the day with shiny eyes.
Edit: The poll is so positive, awesome. I think it really shows how amazing the direct was.
Re: Donkey Kong Bananza Direct: Every Announcement - How Would You Rate It?
It was perfect and I felt really hyped during the direct. Teaming up with Pauline was a cool surprise. Seriously, I could sometimes not believe how cool and fun the stuff looked on the screen.
Oh Nintendo, you always make me feel like a little boy again, thank you!
Re: Nintendo Supposedly Investigating Possible "Swollen Battery" Issue With Switch 2
Thankfully no problems so far with my lovely Switch 2. I hope our Switches survive this generation without problems.
Re: Talking Point: How Are You Finding Mario Kart's Open World?
I have not even tried it yet. Still doing Grand Prix.
Re: Donkey Kong Bananza Direct Revealed For Wednesday, 18th June 2025
Oh how nice of you Nintendo, to convince me even more.
Re: Poll: Do You Three-Star-Gold Every Mario World Grand Prix Before Moving On To The Next?
Yes, because I enjoy it. A little challenge here and there is fine.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (14th June)
@BringleWorkshop
Nice. Thank you for telling me. This sounds really wholesome.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (14th June)
I will try to get three stars in the 150ccm Grand Prix Mode of Mario Kart World. It should be possible with a little bit of luck.
It is fun.
Happy gaming everyone!

A great launch title really. The more I play, the better it gets.

Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: F-Zero X
If you can read this comment you're not playing F-Zero X.
Japan's cover is so cool. Really, this is how game covers should be.
Re: Nintendo: "Appetite" For Mario Kart And Series' Accessibility Makes It Ideal For Switch 2's Launch
It is a great launch title and I have been waiting for a fresh Mario Kart experience. I think I will enjoy it a lot.
Re: Fortnite Turns To The Dark Side With AI Darth Vader Voice, And Of Course It's Been Swearing

You are right, real Digimon would be a danger to us all. But having a great friend and a big adventure would easily be worth it.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (17th May)
I will be playing one of the best Zeldas, The Wind Waker. Saved Aril yesterday.
