@MontyCircus It is not really fair of me to compare Zelda to today's standards, but here I am doing it anyway xD
Joking aside, I do get the impact the game made, however, there are plenty of NES games I can play today and have a kick out of em: Mario Bros. Trilogy, Batman, Journe to Silius, Little Samson, Jackie Chan's Action Kung Fu, Punch-Out... just to name a few.
Zelda is not one of those, unfortunately. But, I do appreciate the way it paved for other games in the genre

I am not a fan of point and clicks at all... but I LOVED the first one.

@AG_Awesome Chill

This is why I wait with indies before purchase, there is always a definitive edition on the horizon

I never understood the appeal of Dr. Mario when there are plenty of better puzzlers.
The Legend of Zelda, as significant as the game is, really didn't age well, but I guess reputation alone can get you in top 10.

I dont hear it

Is it April 1st already?

@abdias You know, I have to absolutely agree with you. For a moment there I forgot about all those stupid decisions from Nintendo, and the one where they brought GBA and DS games to Wii U instead of 3DS really stings.
Then again, it wouldn't be first time they said something won't/can't happen, and it does, like it was the case with NES Remix port to 3DS.
As always, time will tell, but you've convinced me that there is a high chance this will be one of the Nintendo's more peculiar decisions :S

People still believe this is getting removed for eShop soon?
I bet they will bring it back in some form.

@Geostyle Close, Croatian

Wario Land 4 is by far the best platformer on the console, and one of the great overall.
And Wario Ware Inc is to this day the best Wario Ware game.

While it is true there is ton of content and collectables to get here, majority of players will steer clear from those once they realize how frustrating the game actually is.

It is not worth your time collecting all the gems by breaking boxes that, instead of being cleverly hidden, a good portion of them are outside the camera view so you can easily miss it. This was the case in one or two levels in the whole trilogy, but in this one, it is almost in every level.

Getting relics, again, not worth the frustration and time. Stages feel overlong, and just when you are ready to be done with it you realize you are only half way there.

I am surprised the focus of this review was graphics instead of an actual gameplay.

Now, I played the game on PS4, and there was a noticable input lag that killed the enjoyment. Hopefully that is not the case on Switch.

Do I consider it a bad game? No, I had some decent fun, but once I beat the final stage I had no desire to collect everything, even leaving some of optional stages unplayed.

There are stages where you play as different characters and it gives a better context to stages you play with Crash, but a good chunk of those levels are stopped in the middle and the action goes to Crash again, making you play half of the level you already played before. Very artifical way of making the game longer than it is.

I am not here to bash the game, but to prepare others what they are in for, and if all that doesn't sound like a problem to you, and especially if you are not a completionist, then there is a good chance you will have much more fun with the game than I did.

Screenshots look like those fake screenshots that you wish were made into an actual game, but this time they are actually making it into a real game

Here is hoping the input lag will be minimal. PS4 input lag killed the game for me.

Am I missing something or is my computer glitching, but this looks... kinda bad, in terms of visuals and animation.

Oof... that is a bit too close to Donkey Kong to feel comfortable. Reminds me of Cuphead/Magic Portals situation.

Missed opportunity to have hanafuda cards instead of uno

@backup368 Yep, I also thought of it as a gag, but it was edited in the trailer to sound more serious than it will probably be in the final movie.

As with Mario Tennis, this doesn't look like it takes place in Mario's world. Not that there is anything wrong with that, but it loses some charm.
The rush mode seems like A LOT of fun and it might be the sole reason to get this game

Played it on PS4, day one, and regretted it after third level.
The difficulty curve is steep, which wouldn't be a problem if it wasn't for noticable input delay, which is crucial for platformers.
If you plan to go for 100% completion, forget about it. The amount of frustration just ain't worth it, and this is from a guy who platinumed every level in third Crash. The fact that there are boxes placed outside of camera view in almost every level really puts another huge layer of frustration.
Story promises some multiverse shenanigans yet it never fully realizes it's potential.
On a more positive side, Dingodile stages are worthy of a spin-off title, and retro levels are addictive.
Ultimately, if you haven't played N. Sane trilogy yet, I would go for that one.

If you have any interest in SNK or Capcom, you have to get this one. By far the best handheld fighter I played.

Both shows cancelled because of a leak? Even for Nintendo, this sounds like a sketchy reason. There must be something more behind this.

Sounds like the gameplay disappointed so much that every little detail is bad now, such as quick time events, that would probably be just fine if main gameplay worked as it should.

I never understood the appeal of Mutant Mudds and Xeodrifter. Both are bare bones in their respective genres. from what I saw and played.
Maybe I should give them another chance...

All that and only 58 coins? xD

This has been available for a while now

Guys, you have to understand, a celebrity being a fan of Nintendo is something that is logical for this website to cover.
I haven't seen much toxicity when there were articles about Jimmy Fallon being a fan, so why is Brie Larson an exception?
Celebrity bringing attention to games we love can only be good for a community and games as a whole.

@Bizaster "But who cares about her not wanting to be a clown? Not my problem."
Dude... come on. You are better than this. There are plenty of articles here that are up your alley, so just skip ones you don't care about.

@durr I'm afraid you might be right

Doomguy as new character, Fortnite characters as Mii skins in the next reveal

If Nintendo isn't going to play ball (no surprise there), there must be another way to raise money and honor Etika at the same time.

@LunarFlame17 While Gods and Monsters does sound generic, based on what I read from the review, that title explains better what the game is about.
Immortals Fenyx Rising, to me at least, sounds like something I wouldn't even bother to see screenshots of it. Yes, it is judging the book by it's cover, but considering how many games are out there, it has to grab you from the very first glance at the cover art or title.
Plus, it does feel like a title for the a sequel of the movie Immortals xD
I guess what I'm trying to say, Gods and Monsters is lesser of two evils, but none of those titles are particularly interesting.

Wii U will always be my console of choice when it comes to local multiplayer.
The asymmetric play it brought with the gamepad is a blast.
Nintendo Land and Game & Wario are easily most played in my household.

@DeclanS98 "I don’t think either platforms were designed to uphold people’s livelihoods and jobs."
I agree with this statement. Putting all eggs in a basket that is not yours guarantees the basket will be taken from you sooner or later.
However, whether we like it or not, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and Youtube are giants in the field, and for all their faults, it is true that they are platforms that help companies and individuals reach their fan base easier and on a regular basis.
Unfortunately, dealing with platforms that have a dicey history when it comes to bans and monetization (ahem, Youtube), is a risk that everyone being a member on the platform has to accept.

With all that said, I'm sure this was just a mistake on Twitter's part.

The main draw of docked mode is local multiplayer.

The first one lacks some good design when it comes to enemies and stages, although the controls are flawless.
The second one improved on everything and fans of AVGN and his other properties will get the most out of it.
I would recommend getting this one.

Totally cool and completely useless feature

I find Mario 64 extremely frustrating at times as well.
95 stars in and I wrestled more with the controls than any enemy on screen.

@Cow_Bug Oh, I absolutely agree with that.
And yes, the ommision of Galaxy 2 is baffling.

@HollowGrapeJ Cash grab or not, we are not obligated to buy it.
I never played Sunshine so this is a perfect opportunity to play it

To everyone saying it is a cash grab, keep in mind, with this kind of re-releases people who weren't even born when originals were released, they now have a chance to play it.

Already bought it. If you missed on the titles on their original console, this is a no brainer.
So far I only tried Mario 64 and it is a great nostalgia trip.
I would highly recommend it.

"The best way to play Super Mario Bros. 2."
Super Mario Advance on GBA would beg to differ.

"Super Mario Bros., quite simply, feels wrong."
I thought I was the only one feeling that.

Played in on PC back when it released as a Humble Bundle Original.
It is, by far, one of the best games I've played.
Relaxing, filled with content and exploration, and perfect length.
Happy to see it getting Switch release.

Funny how nobody complains about Robert Pattison related article on Nintendo Life, but when it comes to Brie Larson article, all hell breaks loose.

I believe that Paper Mario series would benefit from leaving the old RPG battle system behind. It would make it more approachable to the wider audience.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but Super Paper Mario for Wii is the best selling Paper title. Of course, there are a ton of other factors to consider when making this statement, but the fact still stands it outsold other Paper titles.

@Entrr_username DK-Fan felt he should leave his opinion about the game in comments, and he has every right to do so.

The only minus here are the looks of the main characters. Generic to say the least, and considering this is a platformer/collectathon, that is quite an important aspect.
Other than that, I am getting this day one

Got me on Dark Samus, argh!!

I like all the games, including those for mobile, but the fact is all of the Nintendo offerings are a commercial for real deal on consoles.
