Yay. More stuff barely anyone cares about. I’d probably skipping this even if I could watch it. At least it means the Switch 2 announcement might be near
@WoomyNNYes yeah that’s the one thing about these that are annoying. I always wait until I have something else I wanna buy before using my platinum points
Wow actually a lot better than I was expecting. I always thought it would be karts with tiny sections of the tracks that would look horrible. Still not gonna pick these up though except maybe the Yoshi bike
Farewell fallen soldier 🫡 Never got around to getting any of these games. Maybe I will now in honor of them and since the 2020 one is on sale on the eshop
@T317 I agree that a sculpted head would look better than a non sculpted one but I think the animal crossing ones were a bit uncanny and I feel like the normal Mario legos get way overhated
@Everythingnotsaved I also bought the Barud Dur set day one but I think I’ll pass on this one too. A bit to expensive and I’m not the biggest Zelda fan
@T317 eeeeh I don’t know if Mario mini figures would be the best. The animal crossing and Zelda mini figures look…ok I guess? But the size a molded head that a Mario figure would have to have to fit all his details would look really off compared to the minifigure body. I already think the molded animal crossing heads look a bit off. That’s just my opinion though
I “just” got a switch in 2020 so I’m not as tired of the Switch yet. New hardware can wait, it’s just the new software I’m pumped for. Since I got the system later though there are a few first party games I haven’t gotten around to yet that I might just pass on. I’ll definitely be getting the next console day one though
I love deep cut the most as Splatoon 3 is where I started playing the series (I wonder if not as many people like them because you can skip the news so you don’t see them as much lol). Big man is easily the best idol hands down (fins down?)
Dude, I’m so tired of the game. I’ve been playing it since December 2014 and have been ready to move on for years. I know I’m literally the only one who thinks this, but I wish Mario kart 8 Deluxe never came out and we had just gotten a new installment in like 2019
@Mykcir yeah, I don’t get it why people say the Wii U was bad. Just because the marketing and sales are bad doesn’t mean the console as a console was. Most people saying it was bad never even had one. The games are probably the best in Nintendo’s history with NSMBU, Super Mario 3D World, Nintendo Land, Pikmin 3, Yoshi’s Woolly World, Mario Kart 8, Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, Captain Toad, Breath of the Wild and so much more. A massive chunk of the Switch’s library is made up of Wii U titles, including three of the top ten! The Switch is a truly amazing console, but I think the Wii U deserves a lot more attention than it gets
What I really want is a better way to find sales. There should be a page for Nintendo published games on sale and a wish list that gives you notifications when a game there goes on sale. That’s all I really want. Oh, and no lag PLEASE
Played it with my dad last night. Both of us really loved the Wii sports resort basketball and we both thought this was pretty fun. The shooting is a bit different, the dunking is weird and stealing the ball is way too easy, but besides that it was pretty good
@Spider-Kev I would hardly call something an unfinished work just because of a few bugs. Every game has a few and they could’ve left them in and it wouldn’t have impacted sales, but Nintendo wants to keep their standards high. People need to stop complaining about Nintendo for selling “unfinished games” when they either have just a lack of content (Mario sports games) and just a few bugs, the latter definitely is not an unfinished game. Through over 20 hours of TTYD it’s one of the smoothest games I’ve played
Yeah, this has something I’ve always thought would never happen. I mean I don’t think it’ll be a Wii U failure but I feel like it’ll have pretty good sales
@HatesCheese true. Wii Sports Resort is one of my most nostalgic games but I always thought the air sports, cycling, basketball and power cruising were better. Maybe people just like Matt beating them senseless 😂
Definitely still confused why they waited so long, but I’m still pumped for it. Basketball was easily the second best Wii Sports Resort sport besides island flyover
I dunno for sure how I stand on this issue, but I agree that Nintendo has a right to guard their IPs and fan art can either scare away from or drum up interest in a product. I can see it being used to the advantage of Nintendo and the disadvantage and if they think the cons outweigh the pros, well then that’s the best decision
@Tayrailbridge yeah, 3 was basically the game that got me to branch out into more Nintendo franchises. I’ll probably go back for another play through sometime
Paper Mario is the only 2024 game I’ve gotten so far so I guess that’s GOTY. Can’t see why people would put Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD, a 11 year old game that barely looks better than its original release

It prolly will be $500 but I’ll pay whatever just because it’s Nintendo
Re: Surprise! New Splatoon 3 amiibo Are On The Way
@ThatZeldaNerd yessir I’m a diehard fan!
Re: Talking Point: Will The Switch Ever Get A 'Nintendo Selects' Range?
I certainly wouldn’t be against it, but I’d expect just more often discounts to like $40. Definitely not $20, but I wouldn’t complain

A salute to the great console the switch is 🫡 (although the Wii U is still better)

Re: Surprise! Basketball Slams Onto Nintendo Switch Sports This Week
I hear a lot of people saying they want boxing back. I honestly thought that was one of the worst sports in the series, but that’s just my opinion
Re: Surprise! Basketball Slams Onto Nintendo Switch Sports This Week
Definitely still confused why they waited so long, but I’m still pumped for it. Basketball was easily the second best Wii Sports Resort sport besides island flyover
