Kirbyo

In the wise words of Willy Wonka:
"You get, NOTHING!"

It seems Nintendo is finally getting their PR back in check. Good for them!

@ParrakerriRush I don't think you were joking, that WAS the best part of the whole thing. That and felt furret.

COWARDS! (jk obviously thanks for responding to my letter!)

Why does Benjamin look like he just walked out of LOTR?

Can't wait for this to become a mod

The lack of a physical option in the last question seems very... peculiar.

@VoidofLight Ahhh, I know what you're talking about. It's the file that everyone's talking about, right? The SUPER controversial one? The one that says where the storehouse containing all the english physical copies of Rhythm Heaven Megamix is?

Finally caved on Blue Prince. It's been great so far! I'm maybe... halfway done? A third? Fourth? I'm not sure. Game gets really deep. I did hear there's a nasty postgame, but I'm not there yet, so for now I'm gonna keep going and see what mysteries unfold.

Honestly? Gimme a music player and I'm set for life. Some free roam improvements would also be appreciated, but cmon, there's literally a bike that's a radio, they've GOTTA add a jukebox!

This is gonna be fun!
Who's gonna win, the big corporate lobbyists, or the underdog players? I'd place my bets on the lobbyists (money makes the world go round and whatnot), but if the gamers win, I'll be pleasantly suprised.

I kid you not, I managed to get the stupid two photo newspaper filter to work. Don't ask how.

@RiasGremory Uhhhh they were there too

I'd give it a hearty 8. Some QOL features could be added (looking at you, KAMEK), a jukebox is MANDATORY, and obviously the online needs some tinkering, but overall I think it's a great game, especially if you go in as a casual.

Figuring out I could flip the world in free roam on my own felt AMAZING! Also, I think the requirements are just playing every cup and knockout, cause I didn't place top three in every cup or top four in every knockout and still got it. So long as there's a checkmark, you're good. I don't remember how many peach medals I got, but I don't think it was that many.

You should probably also make a guide on how to unlock mirror mode, cause I just unlocked it on accident. The FIRST time I beat the special cup, nothing happened. The SECOND time I got a cutscene unlocking mirror mode, and I have NO idea what I did differently.

Hmmm, golly gee, I wonder what I may be playing this weekend. Could it be Mario Kart World? Certainly not! (It's Mario Kart World)

I know there's a lot of controversy, but I just decided to get a Switch 2 and hope for the best. Worst-case scenario: Nintendo fails, and I just play Steam games on my new laptop (the perks of going into the computer science industry).

Honestly? That's pretty clever!
@rjejr Wow, someone seems a little over-negative. Then again, I'm a little over-positive. It all balances out in the end.

@8bitKirby Oh hey! Another Kirby! Nice to meet you.
Anyways I'm just going to ignore the controversy, mostly because I already preordered the Switch 2 bundle. Besides, when it comes to worries, I have more existential concerns.

Honestly I would like to see Culex reference in another Mario game

Ohhhhh iwantitiwantitiwantitiwantitiwantitiwantit

Wow, what a power play (says in tired sarcasm)

Ok that timer is actually hilarious

The stability got so high it wrapped back around to low. A stability overflow.

Oh no, this is just going to be the Da Vinci Pokemon thing again isn't it?

@speed_loafer Yeah, with all the bad news in the gaming industry, a mind wipe would be ni-
Oh, you mean the political landscape? Oh yeah I try to ignore it as much as possible.

One day I'll get back to this game. One day...

As with most things the problem is communication. The prices are nasty, yes, but the lack of transparency surrounding them makes everything ten times worse.

Yes. Need I say more?

This is fine. However, I can smell controversy from a mile away, so I'm just going to hide in my positivity bubble until this all blows over.

Honestly, all things considered? Not bad.
Yes, there weren't very many HUGE announcements, but consider this: the Switch 1 HAD to make an impact, after the disaster that was the Wii U. The Switch 2, on the other hand, has room to take it slower, as it can coast off the success of it's predecesor until some of the hidden bigger titles are ready.
Yes, the upgrades are kinda strange, but considering that they're pretty much just Switch 2 exclusive DLC with extra enhancements, I'd say it's excusable. A bit strange they aren't included in the NSO Expansion Pass.
And yes, the prices are ubsurd, but considering world events, the prices, while still terrible, are at least understandable.
Plus, not one, but TWO Kirby announcements? Hell yeah!
Overall, a solid 8/10.

Hopefully this doesn't happen with anouncements from the actual direct... who am I kidding? Nintendo has slipped up before, but not even they can be THAT stupid.

So, Nintendo Play, but modernized to be a mobile app with updates on Nintendo products? Sign me up!

Nintendo, you're treating us so nicely! This isn't like you! Is something wrong?

This is literally just an ice block sliding puzzle turned into a whole game.
...looks great

"AI" NOOOOOOOOO-
"upscaling" -kay.

(Insert obligatory Scott the Woz reference here)

Wait... isn't this the 40th anniversary?

AS IT SHOULD BE

A crummy airbnb, or one of those super shady motels

Ah yes, right during a period change on the second day I'm back in school. AMAZING. Also my school bans live streams, so yippee.

@KidSparta Same here. I bet people who haven't watched the movie yet went on one hell of an emotional roller coaster.

I wonder why they're doing this specific character now. cough, cough

7/14. To be frank, I didn't game that much this year, being more pressed by... other matters. However, I DID finally play BOTW and Hades this year, so I think that kinda makes up for it.

I'm shocked the new Mario & Luigi isn't at least a runner up for biggest suprise

@Classic603 You don't understand: I didn't say "I wish I had friends." Instead I said "I wish I could make friends". I'm very socially awkward. As for family, my brother is already in college, and playing DnD with my parents would just be sad.

I wish I could play DnD. Though that kinda just goes with my sentiment of "I wish I could make friends", which is very sad

It seems people either love this game or hate it. I find it ok. A little grindy, sure, but sometimes it's nice to just turn off my brain for a bit.
