@Grandiajet yah, there was talk that Pikmin 4 was "in development", and that news is over 2 years old. I now believe we'll see it now that we're getting 3. Well, I hope anyway.
@LordVal just finished the game. You are right it is awesome! I thought it was great. Some elements reminded me of Y's for the Sega Master System. What a fun game this is, especialy at the price...it was on sale...
@geni53yr7 not sure about that. I'm old school so i like cartridges but I I really am enjoying the convenience and ease of game changing with digital. If my Switch breaks, I get another one and link my account to it, and i have my game back. Not sure in 20 years it will matter. I grew up with cartridges but really enjoy the digital convenience....
@johnvboy sometimes I look at Mario Kart 8 and Smash Brothers and say ,"how can Nintendo top this?" Or "how can they come up with fresh ideas?" They always do though. Unreal.
Well let's see. I worked from home yesterday with my copy next to me playing on down time. My son with his friends playing his copy, and my daughter doing the same thing with her friend. I'd say the game is one of the best things we could play right now. And Switch sales will increase cause of this game more than any other.
@Tandy255 yah, that's crazy. My son got a Switch in 2017, I got mine last July, my daughter when animal crossing came out. Funny though, no one wants dad to visit only their friends! Well, I may get to visit but it's a short visit!
Wait, what? Already? Well there's 3 physical copies in our house. My daughter bought a Switch & AC on the AC release date. If a good amount of people did that, Switch sales then went up as well.
Not sure if I'm playing Animal Crossing or I'm living it. I'm plugging so many hours I don't know what reality is anymore....Plus I play New Leaf every night before bed.....almost logged 2000 hours on that one.
@super-nintendo awesome, thanks for the suggestion to try it. We are in a "stay at home" order. So it's been alot of animal crossing...I can play this as well. I'm going nuts staying in....working from home and such...
@Jaalsky yah, we have 3. When animal crossing got released, my daughter bought a switch and a copy of the game. So me, my son and daughter have switches and ac.
Try three, 3, switch household. My son got his switch when it was released. I finally got mine last july and my daughter had to have it when animal crossing came out so she bought her self a switch...all three of us have have animal crossing.. and as usual dad is left out of all the island gatherings....
@super-nintendo that definitely gets you pumped! Pretty neat game. I'll play some more tomorrow. It's pretty funny, I'm throwing these combos and you really get into it. Pretty good stuff!
@JayJ no kidding. I called walmart vision center to see if I could go in and have a new pair of glasses made...they said , "no". All the labs are closed that make the glasses!
@TheNewButler Right. I mean it's not as good as I personally hoped for but it seems everyday something gets added to make it more interesting. Maybe the game has surprises that will show up as we play. One thing I catch myself doing is looking to use the right stick as a way to rotate the land, ala DQXI. That would have been cool. But I can't seem to put it down so I know something was done right.

Re: Reminder: The Nintendo Switch Star Wars Sale Ends Today
I grew up with star wars. Just when I think it's gone, it finds it's way back. It's one franchise that needs to go away already.

Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (March 28th)
Good for nintendo. I'm glad they are killing it...I dont think the release of ps5 or xbox whatever will hurt the switch at all.
