@Vriess Give it time. It took me about 4 hours before the correct points total showed.

I bought three pairs which I then used on, Kirby Return to Dreamland, Luigi's Mansion 2, Echoes of Wisdom, Mario Party Jamboree, Mario and Luigi Brothership, and DKC Returns HD. The vouchers are already a great deal before you factor in the bonus gold points.

Has it definitely been confirmed that Sony are publishing the Switch version? I can't see anything official to corroborate this?

No new hardware before Q1 2024? Madness.

Is there still a discount on the eshop codes? If not, why would anyone bother buying from NL?

Very disappointed not to see the criminally underrated Murder by Numbers on the list, especially considering some of the dross/mediocrity that made it.

Presumably, Game Boy sales also include Game Boy Color, which is cooking the books a little bit.

I have zero sympathy for Nintendo. They are sitting on a HUGE software catalogue and they either overcharge for it or simply don't make it available at all.
If it's over 20 years old (especially if I've already paid for it) it's fair game as far as I'm concerned. Needless to say, I strongly disagree with Switch emulation.

But... I'm already silly.

It's a shame that they don't make the old series available when there's clearly demand for them.

I've contributed about 7 quid towards this.

I don't like it when they butcher original hardware to make this stuff.

I had so much fun with this game for about two months. I'm glad I managed to get completely out of it though.

Saw it in a packed theatre last week. great film, glad to see it's doing well. Can't wait for the third one. fingers crossed they get Jim back.

Not a fan of the designs, but I can't say no to a licensed FFXI shirt.

Kate doing Kate things. Love it.

The Gardens Between is a great game if anyone is looking for recommendations.

Probably in my top 5 NES games.

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Deluxe launching with the next console.

I thought Nintendo were one of the companies that had a say on this game? Either Microsoft gave them a bunch of money or... it's also coming to Switch Online... where I still won't pay extra to sub up.

The only reason I'll still play Tetris 99.

Great list. I hope someone from Nintendo is looking at this, because I would re/play every one of these.

I hope they don't charge 10,000 for it.

The addition of the Mega Drive/Genesis games was a huge mistake. You can already buy the Mega Drive Collection and own the games outright for around £15 on any given sale. If Mega Drive games have added even £2 to the subscription price, it's a huge waste of money.

You can buy 4 N64 controllers if you've got the money and the inclination. I went with 2.

Mario Caker.

Hmm, is that it? Can you think of someting more to say?

No.

It's a superb game, just a shame that Nintendo doesn't make it easy to access.

I would sooner play at 480p than play via cloud gaming.

A character from a series that doesn't feature on Nintendo platforms. Way. To. Go. Obviously, that terrible rhythm game doesn't count.

As always @Nintendolife , thanks the heads-up. You guys are great at keeping on top of the Nintendo store. You've helped me out loads of times now.

This HAS to be localised for the West. Please! And once you've done that, give us an offline version of Final Fantasy XI as well.

Ha! You're in the right area. I'm just amazed that you saw through my oh-so-subtle clue. Yes, essentially, when a product goes live, everyone jumps on the product page and the site can't handle the traffic, BUT, there are other ways of getting the item into your basket and reaching the checkout.

@msvt I WISH I could tell you.

I preordered one of these solely because I saw people trying and failing to buy one on Amazon, and I know a sweet trick to get around the bottleneck. Worked with the Series X as well.

Can we do more to call out people who piggyback on rumours and then claim to have known what was going to happen after it has been revealed? It's pure BS.

Give us different colours.

Hitting balls at cliffs that require a whirlwind to take the ball up is the opposite of fun. The rest of the game is good though.

@KateGray the thing is, Kate, you totally rule so I will easily forgive you.

Also, reporting on leaks hours before a direct presumably doesn't help the site's relationship with Nintendo, which, in the past has seemed quite strong considering that Nintendo has sited Nintendolife for review scores.

Should be a spoiler warning when it's less than 6 hours before a Direct.

Hey @Nintendolife , do an article listing the choice picks.

"No way! Proper consoles can't be put in your pocket"

So, 10% of people here are a little bit dense. Okay.

Ha! I was CONVINCED that The Switch was going to fail. I'm very, very, pleased to say that I was massively wrong!

@Doktor-Mandrake Metroid is super hard (unless you're blessed with an abundance of patience), but Super Metroid is a masterpiece. If you still have a Wii U hooked up, you might want to check out Metroid Fusion while you can still get on the eshop. Who knows, maybe it'll be announced tomorrow night for the Switch if the rumoured Gameboy Advance comes to Switch Online.

I would just like to take this opportunity to say: If you missed out on Samus Returns for the 3DS, go and check it out, it's amazing. I missed it when it originally came out because I had Switch fever, but I recently bought it from the eshop (£39.99 yikes!). I was a bit put off by the price, but it's totally worth it, and there are aspects of the design that I can already see in Dread. Get it from the eshop while you still can!

@Kiz3000 Get Blastoise. It's a lot of fun. I hate being on the receiving end of surf. Also, will this update allow us to see week 10 challenges?

The Q is gorgeous, but for me, an N64 with a DD underneath is king.

I will always turn up for Kate’s madness.

I recently blew a load of platinum coins on 3DS themes because I never use them. Fortunately, I had 500 coins left over to get this.

Addition: and make every fourth character free to build up goodwill.
