I think they should really drop NES titles now. There's still quite a few updates I'd like to see, but if they're this slow with these titles now they should put more work into the game boys and n64
@PineappleLake The minecarts (from sky Islands usually, not the ones mentioned here) are really good for uphill areas, and from personal experience the shield seems to last longer surfing than just a shield itself. Fusing a cart is better if you're around a flatter area imo however
@AstroTheGamosian About the 1986 film, while it's somewhat dated in the aspects of story and design, it's extremely charming and only has an issue or 2 near the end for me. Also, there were a LOT of Japan-exclusive commercials that used the same Mario in said movie, likely promotional material
@Mando44646 They announced it with the service, but knowing Nintendo, the biggest ones will take way longer than they need to release, if only for hyper
@Adol-Bannings it has the next year and a half to release, so this could probably improve visually, though i'm on the fence with that cause in this day and age you're lucky if the models have 2 whole extra polygons lmao
@kalosn I'm surprised you think gamefreak is possible at making something graphically impressive past the ps2 era lmao. literally the only pokemon game to look somewhat modern wasn't even developed by GF or any other pokemon teams
I do wish we got items in these cases without pre-order like a handful did in the wii u era (Mario maker and Amiibo festival come to mind, regardless of how bad the latter is). Shame everything has to be a FOMO perk nowadays
Prime 4, I'm hoping, will be near launch, though for a launch title, i'm expecting either an enhanced port of something like botw/totk, a new mii/IP game to show off whatever capabilities it has, and/or an online-centric game, new or old.
I finally beat Pikmin 1 on the switch (with the 60fps cheat, sue me), and it's really good if not basic compared to the others. Pikmin 2 I completed a few years back, and I preferred it to this one if I'm being honest. not because of the time limit, but because it didn't grab me as much as 2 or ESPECIALLY 3 did, but hey, now I can finally play 4!

@Shade_Koopa yeah, that's a good point
Re: Splatoon 3 Version 4.1.0 Goes Live Today, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
@LinktotheFuture yes, sadly the days of download play have been long-gone, so you'd need somebody with a second switch and game to play...
Re: Poll: Were You Able To Get The New Super Smash Bros. Ultimate amiibo?
@Not_Soos Honestly I've only been able to get into Xenoblade X, I guess that's just more my style gameplay-wise.
