The game should come with a "tour mode" where you can just run around the levels sans enemies like this to look at the art direction in the backgrounds.

@masterLEON I was going to say I really want Cap but that isn't going to happen.

How about new games!?

Son. Of. Man. I can't keep up with all of these releases anymore!

@blockfight Is 2K18 finally playable? I've been waiting.

I absolutely loathe the animation shown here.

Indian Diablo sounds like fun to me.

While the graphics are great the gameplay is tedious at best.

@Ryu_Niiyama We can't even get X-Men in our Lego (or MvC) games now. I highly doubt we'll ever see a standalone title for them any time soon.

I didn't know anything about this connection to Matthew Sweet. All I know is he did the vocals to my favorite Delerium song, Daylight.

@FX102A I have this same feeling, the chunky cartoon look and animation style always rubs me wrong. But shmup!

I'm disappointed penis demon didn't win this poll too.

@tourjeff Which was a TERRIBLE port. Absolutely horrible looking. My one purchase so far I wish i could take back if it weren't for the fact I bought it digitally.

The music in the trailer blows the ambiance.

Proper 2D Mario, please! Super Mario World is still my all-time favorite of all the Mario games ever.

@Captain_Gonru I'm not sure it sold out by Friday night. None of the workers in any of the stores between Target, Walmart or Toys R Us had any knowledge of the game coming to Switch nor could they bring it up in the computers for anything but 3DS.

Has anyone in the US been able to find a physical copy of this game? No I place in New Mexico has it for the Switch at all.

@MarcelRguez How is it self-own? They're all called Nazis, even McCain ten years ago was called a Nazi. They had Adolf Hitler wearing a McCain campaign pin on Family Guy way back in 2007. They're always called Nazis. Then the Trump slogan is used in reverse and they aren't supposed to think that isn't a slight from an industry that is very left leaning? I fail to see how that's self-owning in any way. You clearly don't like Trump, I think you're letting that view cloud your view of the situation. If there was some Chinese infiltrstion game with a slogan like makemaofeeltheburn I'm quite sure you'd see the anti-Bernie parallel.

@FNL I haven't seen a thing about that.

@MarcelRguez Are there people getting mad at Wolfenstein???

@bluesdance The review is accurate. It's fun enough but nothing to write home about, a 7 is precisely where I would put it. And whoever says it's full of bugs should probably either redownload the game or contact Nintendo about a problem with their system because it runs fine.

@crackafreeze I can echo that. Earth Atlantis is a massive letdown.

@samuelvictor It won't really be the same, these are designed to play like a real pinball table. Zen regularly does things that can't actually work in reality, they're literally fantasy tables. Plus their physics are floaty and never feels like a real game of pinball. Hopefully this game will do a better job, like the old Pinball Hall of Fame games did, handling the physics of what a real table feels like.

@Damo The floor rotating routine is amusing but it doesn't beat the unhinged screaming of N64 kid.

Has anybody upgraded their cards yet? Is there some special process for moving stuff or do you just have to download everything again?

This is like every Bandai Macross DX pre-order I've ever had to deal with.

Looks like a fun game but will they patch up the graphics? It's a little long in the tooth now.

@In_Ex_Fan I was about to say, no X-Men no sale. X-Men and X-Men fans made that whole franchise.

Meanwhile third parties (and other console fanboys) keep offering idiotic excuses for not making games for the system when it's been demonstrated time and again how useful the thing is for Adults these days...

@Ryu_Niiyama Just barely, the 29th.

Watching the water in that new Mario level makes me want a new Waverace. These new videos give me a Mario 64 vibe, it would be mice to pair that with Waverace again.

@Ryu_Niiyama cough*waverace*cough

This is going to be a great Birthday this year.

To be honest I didn't even notice. But now that I know I'm going to have Mario run around shirtless everywhere.

"beat it in less than three hours and you got to see Samus in a bikini (look, it was a different time back then)"

And a better one.

@Agramonte Lots of adults are forced to do nothing but play outside of the home.

@olrodlegacy I'm not going to buy a game that wasn't fun the first time it came out.

I just wanted more of the challenge levels where you weren't wearing FLOOD.

I saw Harmonix and clicked. I saw mini-games... nope.

@Menchi187 Except Nintendo have the only useful hardware. PS4/Xbone are tied to your home, but so is a PC, so get the ultra powerful PC because it's the best option if you're teathered. But the Switch is actually useful because I can leave the house with it. The "lack" of power no longer matters at that point.

I thought the biggest problem with the controller was being able to actually pre-order one of these things.

@mike_intv The problem with auction sites disallowing pre-orders is that often times in order to get con-exclusives (San Diego being a primary example) the only way I can buy some of those things is to pre-order on an auction site.

I've been saying this since before the console was released and was met with derision by people on this very website.

The problem all of these QuadA developers, and Lanning, all have is that they don't realize where their demographic is anymore. Not every adult can sit their fat asses in front of a sixty inch 4K TV and play anymore. Adults are up and on the move now, they have places to be and the Switch is good enough to get the job done. They're stuck in the same immature mindset from a devade or fidyeen years ago when everyone my age DID have time to sit around all day. Tjete's a huge audience for the Switch, it's the only consile I can personally play, but they're all resisting change. Until Sony knocks it off, then it will be brilliant, yaddah yaddah.

I honestly found no joy in Trial of the Sword. It was tedious busy-work IMO.

"Practical Futurist and Creative Director"

What in the actual hell is this position?

I've said it before and I'll say it again, if you want to make a fan version of a Nintendo game (or anything, really) give ZERO indication you're working on it until it's 100% done then dump it on the internet where it can be torrented, etc and regardless of what the rights holders tell you it's already out, available and can't be easily killed off.

@vincentgoodwin They did.

Unfortunately it's made my MercurySteam. I feel like the animation suffers from the same sort of stiff animation as their previous Castlevania game. Also, it has no atmosphere.

The swatting mechanic seems overused as well. Just watching the bit of treehouse stream it looks like you have to swat damn near everything all the time.

Sweet, it's going to be a Super Mario Odyssey Birthday for me this year!

Something about the animation seems off to me.

Hmm, it looks interesting. The graphics remind me of a few of the darker Sega Genesis games, names of which escape me at the moment. Definitely a Genesis vibe here though.
