If you're into the battling side of Pokemon, it was pretty good. If you're just someone who mainly likes catching and collecting, it kind of sucked. If you are in to both, you probably thought it was just okay.

Just let me play the classic games on NSO. It's not complicated!

I think Megaman is a game that lends itself to iterative sequels. The gameplay is usually shaken up by new weapons, platforming challenges, and bosses. A new Assassin's Creed is going to have you fighting nameless guards using mostly the same equipment, with very little challenge in the climbing and exploration mechanics. It's not about changing what works, it's about re-inventing it so that's it's interesting again.

I'm guessing they'll roll out something new for the Switch 2. We had club Nintendo points for a while which were replaced with the gold coin system, so I'm sure another new thing is around the corner to help with getting rewarded for purchases.

Didn't the "of quality" part of the "official nintendo seal" get dropped in the wii era? I thought the image on the right was the current version.

Funko Pops freak me out. The eyes see into my soul.

@EarthboundBenjy You beat me only on time. I had to stop on the Troupe Leader's Mask because I second guessed that it might be the Gorman Mask. Got it right though.

The modern conveniences of the 3DS version sadly do not offset the killing of a lot of what made the N64 version so memorable.

Just give me the ability to use it in portrait mode so that I can play DS games on it.

I almost never felt like my OG Switch was hard to see or that I needed a better screen. I could have upgraded but it wasn't necessary.

@danzoEX I've never played these games, is there another RPG you could compare them too so I could understand what to expect?

@AnnoyingFrenzy Occasionally I scroll the deals page, just in case there's a diamond in the rough, but outside of that not really.

They said that DQ3 HD-2D exceeded expectations so I'm sure it's still in development.

As you might guess from my picture…this pleases me.

The biggest hangup for me on a lot of these is the fact that split/shared screen co-op has a lot of interruptions in these games. Secret of Mana has to pause the game anytime either player opens the menu. Diablo doesn't pause, but it's hard for other players to see what's happening when I'm opening the menu to change my gear. I'd love to have more games like these, but they need to make sure the game menus work around the co-op, rather than in spite of it.

"If you press this button, someone, somewhere who you don't know, will die, but you'll get 10 free platinum points."

I get the desire to make the cases more uniform with PS5 and Xbox cases, but there's no other reason to make them this big.

"Butters, you said you're on your Switch all the time?"

As someone who is outside of the Monster Hunter fandom, how many games and expansions are there? I feel like EVERY Nintendo Direct has some new MH news.

I woudl like to see transforming vehicles since the Sonic racing games seem to have abandoned it.

I'm glad to see love for 3D Land in here. I remember it fondly as one of my favorite Mario games but I was surprised to find it scoring lower on a lot of lists.

I'll be honest, that headline was bananas. It took me a few tries to understand what I was reading. Not trying to be unconstructive, I just think it could be worded a little more clearly. Then again, I'm not a journalist.

@Zadaris I've been hurt too many times before. Even if I saw a new trailer during the direct, I still wouldn't be convinced until I'm actually playing it.

As a Golden Sun fan who has continually seen the Golden Sun trademark get renewed with no new game in sight…I’ll believe it when I see it.

This 100% gets the axe from Nintendo. Sadly, I think that will discourage people form backing the Kickstarter, which means this likely won't even get a start. Probably would be better to make a movie "Inspired by Zelda" but with its own characters and story (even if it involves a green-clad elf boy on an adventure).

The death of a gorilla was the herald of bad tidings in 2016. Is the death of (a design of) a gorilla the sign of bad tidings in 2025?

Did anyone else see the thumbnail before the headline and think these were the characters from Titan A.E.?

@Edu23XWiiU Not all their games. Not even all their first and second party games that they have the rights to.

NL: We'll start our own eShop! With Balatro! And Filters!

Fortnite will be playable on it within the week.

Me: Okay Nintendo, sounds fair. Please sell me your old games so I can buy them.

Nintendo: ................

Nintendo: No.

I'm not gonna repeat it, but I think we all know what Kirbyo said.

Also, how do these compare to The Amnesia Collection?

Ugh Suikoden Collection comes out first, that has to take priority.

Please give us FFXIV on the Switch 2.

I wonder if this is tied to FFXIV. There's been a lot of hostility from the last expansion and subsequent patches.

Is Nintendo even going to have anything left to announce?

I sunk a lot of time into the GBA app this year (Golden Sun and Golden Sun 2 finally came out). My biggest ACTUAL game was the Grandia HD Collection.

Metroid Prime HD also took up some time because of multiple playthroughs, but I expect Balatro will be my most played by End of December. I scoffed at that game when I heard it was nominated for GOTY but it really deserves it.

@Scapetti HENSHIN A GO-GO, BABY!

I wasn't going to get this considering I have both the Wii and 3DS version. But I started playing Tropical Freeze again a few weeks ago, and I definitely caught the DKC bug.

I'm not counting an announcement out, but I have a feeling that unless it's a big crossover thing with another company, Nintendo likes to keep stuff to their own events.

I thought they were making the first AAAA games? Shouldn't they be doing well? /s

I recently replayed it with the Switch Kongs anywhere mod. Even with it....it's not aged well in a lot of ways. I'd rather see a spiritual sequel with some more thought out level design. Maybe a remake with the right tweaks, but if we get the vanilla version on NSO, I'll probably skip it.

If you have an iPad, it's on there with touch screen support. Might be on android too, but I'm not certain.

If Nintendo had more to show they'd have done it before Black Friday. They've shown us what they've got for this year, and anything else to show for next year would cut into Christmas sales.

Time travel was the perfect power to integrate the story with the gameplay. I was really hoping it would be used again here, but they dug HARD into the alternate universe power, and frankly it's just uninteresting. It makes for a few good puzzles but it's not used effectively for the narrative. I'm sad because I do like Max as a character, but this did not get met back into the series.

@UltimateOtaku91 This is the correct answer. I’d love to see this series end on a high note, even if it was all we got.

Tate mode makes the most sense for handheld, but how about a way to stream what would be the lower screen onto your phone while you are playing on the TV? It seems like a really obvious solution to the problem.

I have the 3DS version, I should get back to it.

Always happy for releases on more systems, but I have it on both my laptop and my iPad, so I don't feel the need to pick it up on Switch. Happy for those excited for it though!

Here's hoping it helps with a smooth launch. I'm hoping to buy one at launch but I need to see the damn thing first, and that's probably not going to happen until after Christmas.
