@LylatZero I've noticed the Switch is loaded with them. There's an article on here listing the best ones on the console, but I haven't taken a dive in yet. ZPF looks amazing with its art style and chaotic gameplay judging by the trailer.
Balatro Balatro Balatro. I have all the decks unlocked but still have a few vouchers and Jokers to unlock. Then there's the challenges... Oh Balatro, will you ever release me ?
I haven't stopped playing Balatro since it came out. The recently added Golf on the NES to the NSO may get some time as well. That game oozes nostalgia for me.
I figured it would be in the West Coast since the first one is in NYC. I was hoping for Seattle or Portland so I could drive there but oh well. Looks like most of us agree that Seattle would have been a better choice.
I was planning on booting up Paper Mario on the N64 as I wait for TTYD, but ended up playing Balatro last night. Now for the rest of the weekend, I'm going to be honest with myself and play nothing but Balatro.
@AG_Awesome I think Rise is an excellent entry title for Monster Hunter newcomers. Compared to other games in the series, it's viewed as one of the easier ones, new user friendly
This and Paper Mario TTYD are my two most anticipated games. Probably the last ones I buy before the next gen, unless Metroid Prime 4 turns out to be a Switch exclusive, which is unlikely
I would love to double dip on this and get the Switch version for portability but the price is too high for that. Even the occasional sale of $40.is too steep
Zero Mission is certainly one of the best 2d Metroids. For me part of its appeal is that it is less frustrating, makes for a breezy experience. On par with Super Metroid, a notch below Dread in terms of overall enjoyment
I recently started playing Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak after a bit of a hiatus. Grinding out xp from the anomaly expeditions until I hit 300 is my current gaming goal.
It's a travesty that Wind Waker is only playable on the Cube and WiiU, two of Nintendo's least selling consoles. More people must experience this amazing game. However, instead of a port, I would love to see a remake of the game. Like TOTK did with the BOTW map, a remake of WW could include a lot of underwater gameplay. Imagine Link donning some scuba gear and exploring the underwater world. Sounds fantastic to me!
Axiom Verge for $5 looks legit. There are many other titles that I'm interested in but the sale prices aren't any lower than they typically are during the year so there isn't much for me to get excited about
Well deserved. I'm not a big 2d Mario fan but Wonder had me working on collecting everything towards 100%. That's something I rarely do in any game. Kudos to Nintendo on this one.
Releasing RPG so soon after Wonder likely was detrimental to its sales. It's also has a much smaller target audience so this doesn't come as a surprise
Glad to see the Switch Lite still holding up. My main preference with the next Nintendo system is that there is a handheld only model ( along with backwards compatibility of course! )

Re: Vampire Survivors: Ode To Castlevania: All Weapon Evolutions
I love this DLC and it's going to take quite some time to unlock all of what it has to offer. I'm all for it
Re: Vampire Survivors: Ode To Castlevania: How To Unlock All Characters
This DLC is amazing. I love all the additions and it's going to take a very long time to unlock everything. Not bad for the price of a coffee.
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Mario & Luigi: Brothership?
I will likely pick it up down the road. I don't have the desire to pay full price for the game to only have it in my backlog.
Re: Mario & Luigi: Brothership: Best Pre-Order Deals And Cheapest Prices
Costco has the cheapest day one prices for games. They don't get many releases but as one example the new Zelda is for $53
Re: An Alien: Isolation Sequel Is Officially In Development
Shout-out to Lofi Girl for my favorite ambience music

Re: Stunning Genesis Shmup 'ZPF' Secures Switch Port On Kickstarter
I don't have many shumps on my switch and this one looks great. Gonna keep an eye on it.

Re: The Plucky Squire Dazzles And Charms In New Sneak Peek Gameplay Trailer
GOTY contender by the looks of these previews. I hope the game delivers. Literally my most anticipated Switch release along with MP4
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (6th July)
I haven't stopped playing Balatro since it came out. The recently added Golf on the NES to the NSO may get some time as well. That game oozes nostalgia for me.
Re: Nintendo Switch Online Gets Four New Additions Today, Including Zelda, Metroid, And Perfect Dark
So happy to see Zero Mission added. It's a great day for Metroid fans. A stealth drop of Prime 2 would have been an amazing trifecta of wonderfulness
Re: Random: 350 Switch Carts Smuggled In Passenger's Bra Seized By Chinese Customs
Glad to hear those carts were rescued from a booby trap.
Re: Feature: Death By A Thousand Karts - Can We Race ALL 96 Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Tracks In A Single Session?
I skimmed through the article but it looks like a fun time and read

Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Obviously I haven't played the remake yet but I'm giving it a 10 regardless 😁
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (4th May)
I was planning on booting up Paper Mario on the N64 as I wait for TTYD, but ended up playing Balatro last night. Now for the rest of the weekend, I'm going to be honest with myself and play nothing but Balatro.
Re: Spread The Balatro Love With This New Range Of Official Merchandise
I'm one of those people addicted to this game. But not t shirt repping addict level lol
Re: Capcom eShop Golden Week Sale Includes Monster Hunter Rise For "Lowest Price Ever" (US)
@AG_Awesome I think Rise is an excellent entry title for Monster Hunter newcomers. Compared to other games in the series, it's viewed as one of the easier ones, new user friendly
Re: World Of Goo 2 Has Been Delayed To August On Switch
This and Paper Mario TTYD are my two most anticipated games. Probably the last ones I buy before the next gen, unless Metroid Prime 4 turns out to be a Switch exclusive, which is unlikely
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (30th March)
Lots of Balatro. Working on winning with every deck.
Re: Rumour: Xbox May Be About To Join The Switch In The Handheld Space
Nintendo essentially owns the handheld gaming market and has since the Gameboy. It would be interesting to see what Microsoft has up their sleeves.
Re: Nintendo Confirms Switch Release Dates For Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door & Luigi's Mansion 2 HD
Nice! I'm really excited to play through TTYD again with a graphics upgrade and portability. Let's a go!
Re: Review: Unicorn Overlord (Switch) - A Crowning Tactical RPG Achievement For Vanillaware
Happy to see the game turned out well for everyone who has kept an eye on its release.
Re: Anniversary: Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze Is Now A Decade Old

Re: Soapbox: I Hated Metroid: Zero Mission At First, Until I Loved It
Zero Mission is certainly one of the best 2d Metroids. For me part of its appeal is that it is less frustrating, makes for a breezy experience. On par with Super Metroid, a notch below Dread in terms of overall enjoyment
Re: Random: Handheld Specialist Creates Prototype 'Switch Lite OLED' Mod
Wish Nintendo did this themselves
Re: Surprise! Dave The Diver Is Getting Godzilla DLC
I've been passing on buying Dave the Diver because of my ridiculous backlog but if they're adding free Godzilla DLC, then take my hard earned money
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (January 20th)
I recently started playing Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak after a bit of a hiatus. Grinding out xp from the anomaly expeditions until I hit 300 is my current gaming goal.
Re: Poll: How Often Do You Trade-In Your Switch Games?
I sell my games once I finish them. Played Mario Wonder to completion and sold it for $50. I paid $55 for it. Solid experience for $5 no doubt
Re: Feature: Nintendo Switch Ports We'd Love To See In 2024
It's a travesty that Wind Waker is only playable on the Cube and WiiU, two of Nintendo's least selling consoles. More people must experience this amazing game.

Re: GTA 6 On 'Switch 2' Would Be "Very Tricky To Pull Off", Says Digital Foundry
No worries. I'm sure they'll port GTAV over with minimum effort for $60 🙃
Re: Super Mario Bros. Wonder Scores Best Family Game At The Game Awards
Well deserved. I'm not a big 2d Mario fan but Wonder had me working on collecting everything towards 100%. That's something I rarely do in any game. Kudos to Nintendo on this one.
Re: Round Up: Every Switch Announcement At Day Of The Devs - The Game Awards 2023 Edition
Resistor gives me some SSX Tricky vibes, but as a story driven RPG. Looks good to me
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (December 2nd)
I picked up Enter the Gungeon while.on sale this past week. Gonna boot that up and give it a go
Re: We’ve Played Batman: Arkham Knight On Switch - Here’s 17 Minutes Of Gameplay
Should have put Arkham Origins in the bundle instead. Knight had a slim chance to becoming a good Switch port.
Re: UK Charts: Super Mario RPG Tumbles Out Of The Top Ten
Releasing RPG so soon after Wonder likely was detrimental to its sales. It's also has a much smaller target audience so this doesn't come as a surprise
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (November 25th)
I haven't played any Mario Kart since wave 3 of the dlc. Now that I'm done with Mario Wonder, it's a good time to test out all the new tracks
Re: Nintendo Of America Announces Cyber Deals eShop Sale, Up To 80% Off
The Castlevania and Contra collections are at $4 a piece. I recommend those to anyone that enjoys those retro titles
Re: Japanese Charts: It's Onwards And Upwards For Super Mario Bros. Wonder
Glad to see the Switch Lite still holding up. My main preference with the next Nintendo system is that there is a handheld only model ( along with backwards compatibility of course! )
Re: Nintendo Switch Has Now Sold Over 132 Million Units
All those steady sales of the console without a price reduction ( that I'm aware of ) over the years is ridiculously impressive.
Re: Vampire Survivors Sinks Its Teeth Into A Festive Update On Switch, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
Sweet! Gonna put in a couple of hours into this update tonight. The Flower Kingdom will have to fend for itself in the meantime
Re: Mortal Kombat 1 Shares "First Look" At The Kombat Pack DLC Fighter Omni-Man
I don't play Mortal Kombat but as a fan of both Invincible and The Boys, I love the DLC fighters here
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (October 14th)
I can't stop playing Vampire Survivors, but I just bought Mark of the Ninja on sale so that's a possibility.
Re: Random: Chicago Bulls Announce Upcoming NBA Schedule With A Classic Pokémon Tribute
That's my hometown team. They have been disappointing these last few seasons but get a win here
Re: Review: Blasphemous 2 - Bloody, Brutal, And Even More Brilliant Than Its Predecessor
I own but have yet to play the first one. When I get around to completing that, I'll likely pick up this sequel. It sounds fantastic
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's Game Boy Color Library With Two Zelda Classics
I totally skipped the GB era. Pretty excited for this
