@Dee123 They are the most well-known gaming-tech channel, and the ones who did the review are fans of Nintendo, especially John. Criticism does not mean hate. Just because you donāt notice or care enough about their findings doesnāt mean they donāt exist. I can respect the level of awareness that they bring.
@TimothyjFeeley Iāve seen enough gameplay to know that it doesnāt entice me enough to get a Switch 2. Bananza does, but itās still better to wait for more exclusives to roll in.
Friendly reminder that you can hit āignoreā on users if you donāt want to see any of their current/future comments. Make life here as blissful as you want it to be.
@BTB20 yes, I forgot about it. Everything was semi-connected through water. Iād like to see them achieve a similar feat over a large body of land. And more of those giant boss fights please.
@Yoshi3 to my knowledge there is no open world 3D platformer. The closest weāve gotten to that is open zone with Sonic.
The same problems that plague open world RPGs donāt have to apply to a platformer.
When Mario 64 came out, everyone wondered āhow does 3D Mario work?ā because all they knew was 2D. Just as Nintendo defined the 3D platforming space, they can define an open world platformer too. If anyone could pull it off, it would be them.
Iām not sure how the next Mario can top DK at this point. DK can break terrain and throw it, move fast and climb any surface. And Marioās supposed to be the nimble/parkour guy!
Heās gonna need another unique invention like FLUDD to keep up.
Auto-accelerate should always be on for races. Who wants to physically perma-hold a button thatās meant to be held down the entire race? Itās just uncomfortable, and makes it hard to go back to older Mario Karts.
Iām not a fan of Kevinās voices. His voice(crack)work actively makes me want to play any other character. I dislike that Nintendo wanted to cheap out by having him voice all 4 ābrothersā knowing full well that he doesnāt have the kind of vocal range that Charles did.
I think I can wait till next year to grab the console when more 1st party software has released. A 3D Mario or Smash Bros would grab my attention immediately.

@vio Wow, what an ugly comment. No one should be age-shamed for enjoying video games.

@Yosher If we get an open world Mario, I bet Yoshi will become his summonable āhorseā like most open world games
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Donkey Kong Bananza For Switch 2?
Yes, Bananza looks like it has a lot of effort put into it. Iād rather pay $80 for this game than Mario Kart.

Re: Donkey Kong Bananza Switch 2 Box Art Shows Pauline In All Her Glory
@Ogbert Iām glad itās Pauline and not some rock. Last thing I wanted was another boring 2P character like Marioās hat or a random Luma.

Re: PokƩmon Fan Loses "20 Years Worth Of Data" After Performing Switch 2 Transfer
Something is very wrong with people whose first thought is to blame the user when Nintendoās system transfer failed them.

Re: Switch 2 Sets "All-Time" Launch Record For Video Game Hardware In The US
I wonder how big of a seller DK Bananza will be. Returns sold 6 million on Wii and Freeze sold 4 million on Switch.
I have a feeling 3D DK may not be as popular ā¦
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Mario Kart World
Hope to see free updates for this game over time. It would be disappointing if they went straight to paid DLC after an $80 price point.
(I know the bundle-ers paid $50, but itās still an $80 game.)
