@OctolingKing13 it's said that if every person in China jumped at the same time, the vibration would be felt the world over.

Switches would be unaffected.

Still playing The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening and New Pokémon Snap. After 100%-ing Super Mario Bros. Wonder, I had a hankering for some more level-based Mario, so picked up Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury, which is definitely scratching that itch.

My brother got me New Pokémon Snap and The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening for my birthday, so I've been playing those. Good thing he bought me Switch games really, as I've not been well (man flu, so I may as well be dying) the past few days, so I haven't felt like sitting at the desk. Incidentally, I haven't played Helldivers 2 in 4 days; I don't know if the shaking is from the illness or from withdrawal.

Now we're talking!

@Dev1024 I've personally always been into SM64's end credits music 👌

I went through and redownloaded a load of games from the first time I had a Switch and never finished. I've been playing BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL! and Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order. Oh and Helldivers 2 because I have a problem.

Anybody watched gameplay of this? It's hilarious.

You've somehow managed to make cats ugly.

Congratulations.

Um, excuse me, but where's the IGN watermark?

What did Famitsu give it?

Good on the devs of Thank Goodness You're Here! for having their debut game even considered for best game. If I were them, I'd be extremely proud of that, even if it doesn't make it to the final list of nominees.

I did it. I got 100% in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. I'm not sure any other game will ever fill the void I currently feel in my soul.

Oh no, wait, Helldivers 2 still has its claws in me. I'm ok 👍

@Zuljaras I like seeing these pictures every week.

My journey to 100% completion in Super Mario Bros. Wonder is nearing its end. I have all the wonder seeds, purple coins, standees and flag poles; I just need the last badge and I'm done.

I jumped into Pokémon Unite for the first time this week. I've played eight matches, won seven of them and been the highest scoring player (across both teams) in six of them, so one of three things is happening:

1. there are CPU "players" in matches
2. everyone is rubbish at this game
3. I am s**t hot at this game

@Neckcrane is it? So what's Dave, a nickname like?

@JimNorman it's just the one Dragon actually.

Yes. Yes it was.

@ThomGee

As a guy with some pretty severe vision issues, this is a common thing with Switch games. I’ve long accepted there are just some games I cannot read in handheld mode. Even just menu options can be hard sometimes. I wish devs would consider this more.

Same here. The one that always springs to mind for me is Fire Emblem: Three Houses. So much of the text was not only small but on a stylised background that made it hard to read on a TV for me and impossible to read in handheld mode.

@Max_the_German Nintendo is easily one of the worst developers when it comes to accessibility.

@SwitchVogel thanks! I only ask because even when Dragon Age XI first came out, it didn't have the orchestral soundtrack; it was added in the Definitive Edition release. Something to do with the composer - not Squeenix - actually owning the rights to the music if I remember correctly.

If the DK Rap kissed me and gave me a million quid, it still wouldn't be good.

@obijuankanoobie I can think of far worse ways to celebrate. Have fun, and congratulations.

I have to respectfully disagree with Kaze and the Wild Masks being "an absolute pleasure from start to finish". It's the one of the least enjoyable platformers I've ever played.

What did I vote for? I'll give you a clue:

DILLON!!! YOU SON OF A B***H!!!

I'd like to see Metal Sonic debut, on the condition that Amy doesn't come with it because I find her insufferable.

I'm a big fan of the HD-2D aesthetic. I really enjoyed Octopath Traveler and its sequel. Haven't played Triangle Strategy (yet).

@SwitchVogel is the soundtrack orchestral this time around?

@LikelySatan HEY!!! I both resent and resemble that remark.

@Erigen now with tongue.

@MirrorFate2 as a Sonic fan, I am acutely aware of my sickness and find it funny.

@shiftbarackyeaugh this has been my stance as well. If the company will sell it to me, I'll buy it. If they won't... 🤷

@Yalloo The translation for the Spanish word gusto is taste, but I assumed that "to make games with gusto" meant to make them with enthusiasm.

@Mgalens precisely.

I've been peeing on all my electronics for years with no issues.

I'm also going for 100% completion in Super Mario Bros. Wonder; so far I've beaten Bowser and got all the Wonder Seeds.

Also also, I'm playing Kirby and the Forgotten Land. I'm just going through the story at the moment.

I'd also also also like to add that I've been using @PJOReilly's guides for both games. Super helpful 👍👍👍

"Nintendo Direct Announced" (GASP!!!!!!)...

"For Super Nintendo World's Donkey Kong Expansion." Aw.

I've got perfect in every normal, plus and expert level in Mario vs. Donkey Kong, so now it's time to go through in time trial mode.

I'm also going for 100% completion in Super Mario Bros. Wonder; so far I've beaten Bowser and got all the Wonder Seeds.

Also also, I'm playing Kirby and the Forgotten Land. I'm just going through the story at the moment.

Who's playing Hentai Parody: Tentacle Slayer? Come on, own up.

"Videotaping this crime spree is the best idea we ever had!"

@Joeynator3000

I swear, if this app gets constant updates with nothing but "stability" just like the Switch...I'm gonna-

-be stable as f**k.

My wife licked a Switch cartridge once, to "see if it was true". I've not looked at her the same way since.

@PepperMintRex Embracer isn't in the position to be buying anything at the moment. Quite the opposite, in fact.

I think you'll find it's not Tales of the Shire: A Lord of the Rings Game, but actually Tales of the Shire: A The Lord of the Rings Game. If they're going to give it a stupid title, I'm going to point it out.

@Olliemar28 wouldn't the sensible thing be to post the news story in a few days with the official translation, then?

What's wild here is that in fiscal years 2021-2024, Nintendo-published games alone sold around 100 million units each year. That's insane.

No one who conjures up the idea of a plumber curb-stomping turtles is normal.

@FishyS I got Mario Wonder last week and it's an impeccably made game. I'm not usually one to go for 100% completion in games, but damn it, I've gotten all the wonder seeds and just want to keep playing.

@N00BiSH or maybe even Stinkoman time. 20X6 release confirmed?

I love the Mario & Luigi series, but so much stuff I've read or heard about Brothership since reviews hit has put me right off.

Now we know that a 3DS can run continuously for 7 months, though. So this player also contributed to science in a way.

I'm already turning 40 this year and feel old. Now this.

Thanks.

@Liam_Doolan My uncle works at Nintendo and confirmed it's true.

I haven't had a Switch for a few years, but I got a Switch OLED as an early birthday present and I'm catching up on Nintendo games I've missed. I'm bouncing between Kirby and the Forgotten Land, Mario vs. Donkey Kong and Super Mario Bros. Wonder.

The adoration for Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2 baffles me and always will.

Oh sh*t, this actually came out? I got bored of Jools' bi-annual email "updates" sent out to backers - showing a screenshot of the title screen or some such nonsense - around three years ago. I'm back on the Switch train now (having got a Switch OLED as an early birthday present) so maybe in between catching up on all the Nintendo games I've missed from over the past few years, I'll check my emails for the Hatch Tales code.

Maybe.

@cedarhyped 🤣🤣🤣

Also, Sonic: Lost World isn't stranded on WiiU. You can get it on PC and the recommended specs are very... pocket calculator-y.
