Hope you like your career here at Nintendo Life 👍

@ShadLink Me too!

@MonsterMike Are you seriously COMPLAINING about this games's graphics? What were you expecting, a PS5 game running on switch 2?

But that said, its your opinion

We already know how gamefreak makes games. They button mash under the hood, then give it a terrible paint job.

@NintenGuy uh-huh! i'm just coping with how INCREDIBLY BORING this year has been. I legit couldn't care less about Mario Tennis, the only worthwhile thing so far this year has been new Joy-con colors.

And yes, I know it's january

@Dr_Corndog You aren't alone

I'm still working on the great mines in Metroid Prime 4, but I might dip into Pokemon Z-A to finally reach A rank. I'm also working on an Undertale pacifist route.

@Uncle_Franklin I think this year is going to be a MASSIVE year for Nintendo. They will get Mario Tennis out of the way, then give us one of those hour long directs that are PACKED with games. We might get a 3D Mario, probably something Zelda(either remake or new game), we will certainly get more Splatoon raiders info, possibly Pokemon Gen 10 as well.

@AllBLK It's been more then six months and I am absolutely in love with mine. Although that is coming from someone who had only a Switch Lite, so make of it what you will

If Gen 10 is releasing later in 2026, all they need to do is bundle it

Oooh! New joycon colors! me likee

gonna buy these

I'm excited for Raiders but tbh i would prefer Splatoon 4 in 2026 over Raiders in 2026

@datamonkey Thx you too

@datamonkey It is 2026 for me😈

Awesome article - really got me thinking. Maybe NL should publish 'Top [number] Switch & Switch 2 Games With Girl Power'

Switch 2:

• We will certainly get more Splatoon Raiders info.
• A Splatoon 4 trailer would be nice, but that probably won't happen.
• A Zelda remake or two for the anniversary
• Mario Kart DLC.
• A new 3D Mario would also be great, but unless they reveal it in like the first 3 months, it might be late 2026 to early 2027.
• Xenoblade Chronicles 3: Complete Edition: Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Fall of Aionos
• To be honest, I would play Metroid Prime 2+3 remade for Switch 2.
• Next Smash Bros?
• [EDIT] Pokemon Gen 10 trailer

Switch 1:

• The 3D Mario will also be there, but it will have a Switch 2 edition.
• Same with the Zelda remakes.

Nintendo Classics:

• Super Smash Bros Melee already!!!

Other:

• Zelda movie trailer
• Mario Movie 2 does well
• Splatoon animated show announced

Those are my predictions. I hope they all happen.

The Switch 2 Lite exists already - it's called the Switch.

I mean there's not exactly a high bar for new zelda games in 2025.
But if you're counting remakes of zelda games then this game must be crazy

Man, I love Hdrule Warriors!

@KingChiliPepper
If you're having trouble, upgrade yourself or get the Dead Bug's purse to help with your Rosary problem. There should be guides on the Internet, and possibly on this site! 😊

Honestly, I would replay Hollow Knight with a Switch 2 edition, but I'm gonna play Sea of Sorrow first. Silksong is just so much more fun for me.

Congrats to E33, I guess. I'm still bitter that Silksong won ONE award!

Do you know about that trashy Tamagotchi Plaza game that came out earlier this year?

would play this update if i didnt just get undertale

Just got this game ITS SO GOOOODDDD

My only nitpick is that I carry too many dogs.

I'm just gonna keep playing on my Silksong save file that has over 95 hours on it... but also get Undertale today.(FINALLY!)

I legit cannot wait to get this game. I'll probably get it as a christmas gift

Metroid Prime 5: Remembrance releasing October 2042!

planning for it to be a Christmas gift

@AussieMcBucket
Rockin' around the Sylux tree at the Samus party hop
Shot upgrades hung where you can see, every player tries to stop
Rockin' around the Sylux tree, let the Metroid spirit ring.
Later we'll have some Viewros pie, and we'll do some shooting bombs.

@AussieMcBucket Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in Vi-O-La today!

I like open worlds, make more!!!

I don't want a lot for Christmas, there is just one thing i need
Don't care about the presents underneath the Christmas tree
Yeah I just want Metroid Prime 4, More than you could ever know

YEAH, TEAM CHERRY

"Being able to quickly revisit steps like this is all part of the easygoing feel of Viewfinder."

The antithesis of Team Cherry

"Fixed unintentionally long bind time when using multibinder on the Shaman Crest"

YES!!!!!!!!
I've died so many times on the coral tower because of this unnecessarily long bind time

@TheWokesterGamer

SHAW!!!

sry I just needed that

This, right here, is why I don't play these types of games. Like, Fortnite, where the paid for items are cosmetic, that's fine. But here, where you can basically shell out a hundred bucks or whatever to immediately win literally every match... That's just pay-to-win.

These Licence Journeys seem like a step in the right direction, but the ideal scenario would be giving players Pokémon Licences for, well, playing! Completing achievements, maybe? Example: You beat a Master Trainer. Oh ok cool. Here's a Charizard.

Basically, these types of games boil my blood.

The Shaman Crest is the best crest in the game.
Change my mind.

FYI, Multibinder heals for 4 masks, not 5.

I think that #1 should've been either SMO or OOT. BOTW and TOTK are certainly top 5, possibly top 3, but they are not the BEST OF ALL TIME.

That said, I love them, extremely good games.

WHEN IS DEMO FOR KIWIS?!?!

• BOTW
• Metroid Prime
• TOTK
• Mario Odyssey
• Xenoblade Chronicles 3
• OOT
• Wind Waker
• SM64
• Splatoon 3
• And an unpopular choice, Luigi's Mansion.

I would honestly pay today's prices to see a Splatoon movie in theaters.

@the_beaver It's nice to see positivity, but I genuinely cannot tell if you are being sarcastic.

@bosh Well, if 10 million have been sold, rougly 1/800th of the population has one.

For me:

• Metroid Prime 4
• Kirby Air Riders
• Hyrule Warriors

I don't play ACNH, i just like feeling included in polls

You should not be able to patent game mechanics, Nintendo.

maybe after I finish Silksong, Hyrule Warriors, MP4, Z-A, and Sea of Stars.
EDIT: Oh and Undertale
