@NintendoByNature It would be cool but NFL's culture has changed to where they are moving away from highlighting the violence of the sport especially after the lawsuits surrounding CTE. I am very interested in learning more about what they plan to do with the license I imagine it will be a mix of NFL street and Blitz with power ups added. The structure will likely give them the option to add micro-transactions as well. Since they don't own Blitz or Street their options are limited.

@Torakaka yes , though as a member of the board at most he would be as a consultant I imagine and this gives positive PR for Gamestop which desperately needs it. They probably opened up the coffers for him. "Yes, we spent the past 10 years underselling trade ins and treating our employees badly but we got Reggie on board now! Remember Mario, Smile!" In short get your money Reggie.

@Mountain_Man Only one I question is Skyward Sword getting a perfect sword. That game had imprecise (but still playable) motion controls that hampered the experience for me.

Still playing Stardew and this game comes out . I cannot! Talk about two perfect games you would like to be stuck on on island with! XD

@Dezzy well this is a Nintendo site and the article did say 26 games have gotten perfect scores to let us know that more than listed have gotten perfect score so not really an omission.

Sonic looks a bit jarring in the scenes and it does not look as natural as Pikachu did in Detective Pikachu in the real world.

That said I will give it a watch.

I got tears in my eyes. Lololol what type of bootleg tomfoolery is this??

I am personally waiting for Nanica Science Facility and Nanica Good Health peripherals.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Miyazaki and his team are an uber-talented group that create games that can be enjoyed by many for years to come. Congratulations to them.

@Kirby_Girl Jade is minor fan service compared to Jessica in DQ8 , the truly voluptuous waifu. <3

Erik is my favorite, he had the charisma and moxie to lead his own game. Which is rumored to in fact be in the works.

Will this be some major blockbuster? No. Does ever movie have to be ? No.

I think that the redesign changed me from not wanting to see it to definitely wanting to.

After playing this game for a while I can say in regards to the difficulty , "Hard" seems just right. I do not think the game is overly easy as you still have to make strategic decisions especially if you have not played a lot of Fire Emblem.

Playing in Maker -mode as docked is counter-intuitive.
Level finding is needlessly complex.
Maker rankings not breaking down into seasons or at least weekly, monthly, all-time .

These are the main things I wish they would improve. Overall I like MM2 more than MM1 though and think that any current major issues can be fixed with incremental patches.

MEEEEEEEELLLLLFIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCCEEEEE!!!!

Can we trade in our old Switches for a 70 percent discount please on the new one lol?

@westman98 Good question... dark horse is for a Shinobi revival as they were supposedly working on a Shinobi live action movie I heard since 2016

@Ryu_Niiyama I would pop-off if it was VF

@Moroboshi876 intrusive microtransactions likely

If they bring back Virtua Fighter I would be immensely happy especially with fighting games receiving a bump in popularity nowadays.

@Morpheel I think you are onto something. The original cut may have Bowsette in it at first.

@StarViruZ I believe it will be in Chapters similar to Bayonetta. Open world with a game that looks like this will be incredibly intensive on the hardware in my opinion. Cannot wait to play it!

One of the biggest appeals of Creed games is how great the game looks and the organic-feeling world. This looks like a demastered version of the game sold at a higher price than other versions no less.

@ReaderRagfish Luigi is a little skinny-fat <3 though to the legendary green plumber though.

@Aozz101x no worries all the DMC games likely coming and at 30- 40 dollars a piece.

This truly pushes the power of the console.

On a serious note good to see Dante on the Switch

The Sonic franchise may have lost today but the internet has won.

Great series! It is tough to double or triple dip though on this as the games all have the same linear conclusions with no alternate endings.

@Heavyarms55 ODST?

Still working through the DLC for this. Great game.

I would be perfectly fine if this was his last Smash game or if the series took an extended break after the DLC releases if he must still be involved. Save only balance patches during this time.

Pauline >>> Peach.. Those lips, those thighs, the huge personality she has!

@Darknyht it is fun but when I played I had issues with game crashes at inopportune time during Ranked games. Good fun though when it works properly.

The game lacks high quality production in my opinion. It should FEEL epic controlling a mech fighter.

It starts at the beginning. The loading screen in the demo is a dull gray screen when it be a visual of a mech flying in or schematics being drawn out. The mech movements lack weight to them as they move similar to someone simply flying with a gun. As others have said the enemies are difficult to discern from a far.

I think this game needs more time in the cooker sadly. It has some promise though

Toppo would have been a better choice. If you take away Jiren's power what you have as a character is literally generic buff guy #28380281.

@Dalarrun I see. No harm intended genuinely curious about people's thoughts on port quality to the Switch.

@Woosh193 Switch is my main console sir. I do not even own the other consoles if that was meant for me. Besides picking and choosing my points you never addressed the crux of my open question of which essential asked what qualifies at a low quality port on the Switch? I merely provided a high profile game example but it could be any port. What makes it a bad port or is it all good as long it runs on the Switch and we should be thankful?

@Dalarrun Just an open question. Because it is a hybrid console so concessions have to be made but I believe there should be a standard of quality. Theorycrafting here but what if Red Dead could be played on the Switch but only with dynamic resolution that occasionally drops to 15 fps and requires 100 gb of external memory would that be acceptable? If it meant more third-party games on Switch would we be okay with unstable FPS and early last gen graphics ?

How many concessions are acceptable for Switch ports? We have to ask ourselves this question.

I wish this game had a more substantial(read : Luigi story mode) DLC. But I cannot complain about them offering outfits that would usually be behind micro transactions.

Fine work NL

Lol good try Reg. His answer infers "hey guys not my call. "

Looks pretty realistic to me

@AlexSora89 If there is any Smash to have Goku in it. This will be the one to break such a rule as this game is completely for the fans. Especially once FighterZ comes out on the Switch. The other generations with Smash did not really have as big of a DBZ fighting game on it.

@DanteSolablood the pieces are in place for Goku to come to Smash. Great relationship with Bandai Namco, Sakurai is well aware of the most popular character requests, and him having a move set that could be created from a template from already established characters. The main caveat is that Shueisha, are pretty strict with the IP.

@NotSoCryptic I also have trouble returning to SMO as well. I believe it is in part because I am not huge into speed runs and wished for more substantial DLC support with Luigi.

@StephenYap3 Super Mario 64, Super Mario 3 , Super Mario World , Mario Bros. , Mario Sunshine top 5 for me with an honorable mention to Super Mario Galaxy for my list in no particular order.

@Spudworthy insert Instant Transmission gif

No review site should ever have "quit complaining" as a sub-heading in its' articles , as it puts the reader on the defensive before you can even explain your position. It also hurts your credibility in that the article reads like a Nintendo sponsored piece. That said I hope the service improves as it is pretty bare bones right now.

I think Mario Odyssey is great, but it felt uneven at parts(some worlds are not as fleshed out as others.) I would love to see DLC with updated versions of Delfino Isles or other classic areas. Luigi character DLC would be amazing.

Cool, the greatest praise they could give is releasing their games onto the Switch
