I assume this Cranky Kong is the Grandfather of Donkey Kong Jr. while the original Donkey Kong became Cranky Kong by DKC after the original Cranky Kong passed away. This Pauline would grow up to be kidnapped by the same Donkey Kong due to being jealous of her new friendship with Mario.
I can't even wear Crocs any more. They kill the bottoms of my feet outside of the Crocsband Clogs with the smooth bottoms on them and the Crush Clogs with minor bumps. The Mega Crush Clogs have minor bumps as well, but are so heavy, they pull my Achille's tendon.
I still own a copy, although I regret not buying a generic laser mouse for the SNES from my local Half-Price Books as the original mouse is a pain to use these days.
I hope Capcom Fighting Collection 3 contains the console games Rival Schools, Rival Schools 2, SFA 3 Max Impact, Star Gladiator, SF EX Alpha Plus, SF EX 2 Plus, SF EX 3, and Final Fight Revenge.
First Virtua Fighter game for a handheld console since Virtua Fighter Animation for the Sega Game Gear unless you count Virtua Fighter 2 for the Sega Nomad.
I don't think America has any gaming magazines at the moment, unless you include the UK ones imported to stores like Barnes and Noble and Joseph Beth Booksellers. Supposedly Game Informer is returning, in my opinion, the worst gaming magazine ever made.
My Switch and Pokemon D&P Switch Lite will only cover 50% of the cost of the Switch 2. I kind of wish I picked up the Hyrule Edition Switch Lite at Meijer for $185 so I'd have $325 towards the Switch 2. If I had kept my 2nd Switch, I'd have $450.00, but got paid $200.00 cash by Half-Price Books for it.
Losing their identity? Seriously, does he not know Nintendo's history? They release 2 of every console. The NES and SNES were the same. The N64 and GCN were the same. The Wii & Wii U were the same. The GBA & GBA were the same. The DS and 3DS were the same. Obviously, the Switch would have a similar console coming out.
I'd rather Nintendo make a Super Kart Bros. game featuring Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Funky Kong, King K. Rool, Link, Zelda, Ganondorf (PIg Form), Stalfos, Fox, Slippy, Peppy, Falco, Captain Falcon, Samurai Goroh, Dr. Stewart, Pico, Little Mac, King Hippo, Bald Bull, Soda Popinski, Both Ice Climbers, Both Urban Champions, Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, Lucario, Machamp, Ness, Captain Olimar, Chibi Robo, Custom Robo, Marth, Roy, Ike, Corrin, Kid Icarus, Samus, Mike Jones, & R.O.B.
I hope GameStop will give me a $50 trade-in bonus on my Switch and Switch Lite for pre-ordering the Switch 2. I would get probably get $350 in trade-in credit.
Nintendo has had a terrible history with 3rd party developers thanks to their bad business practices such as using cartridges for the N64, using mini DVD-ROMs for their GameCube, using poor graphics for the Wii, and using a gimmicky controller for the Wii U. They can't even get full 3rd party support for the Switch as 2K barely supports them and EA and Activsion has shown them 0 support whatsoever.

Re: Crocs Launching "First-Ever" Collaboration With Animal Crossing, Out Next Month

Re: Switch 2 Users Are Reporting Instances Of Their Consoles Overheating
Scratched LED screens, drifting issues, poor battery life, and now an overheated battery. The Switch 2 is hot garbage. Literally.
Re: Man Busted After Allegedly Stealing "$10,000 Worth Of Nintendo Switch Games" From Public Libraries
Stealing from a library? I hope the judge throws the book at him!
Re: Back Page: Every Game Should Have A Cow
If a video game lacks a cow, is it a Milk Dud or an udder failure?
Re: Nintendo Appears To Have Updated Donkey Kong Bananza's Switch 2 File Size
The game would have been 1.5 GB larger, but Nintendo decided to save space and time by not making any shoes for Pauline.
Re: Mailbox: Switch 2 Price Point, Wind Waker Vs. HD, Drip-Feed Updates - Nintendo Life Letters
The great thing about the Switch 2 is how much more attractive the Switch 1 is.
Re: Nintendo Supposedly Investigating Possible "Swollen Battery" Issue With Switch 2
Stapled screens, swollen batteries, terrible battery life, and controller drift from the start? I'm so glad I didn't buy a Switch 2.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Jet Set Radio (Dreamcast)
@DarkCoolEdge Jet Grind Radio was released on the GBA, lest you forget.
Re: Poll: Switch 2 Battery Reportedly Lasting Under Two Hours With Mario Kart - How Is Yours Holding Up?
To think, I used to get 35 hours of gameplay from my original GameBoy. This handheld is NOT for handheld gaming.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition
The NA box art is horrible as it is way too crowded.
Re: Random: One GameStop Apparently Stapled Receipts To Brand New Switch 2 Boxes, And Guess What Happened...

@KociolekDoSyta All to sell the Switch 2 to more consumers.
Re: Everybody's Golf: Hot Shots Has Been Rated By The ESRB
The games I played the most on PSP and Vita were the Hot Shots Golf games.
Re: Nintendo Switch System Update 20.1.0 Is Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
The last update practically bricked the console, so I'm surprised this one didn't, causing people to have to upgrade to the Switch 2.
Re: Switch 2 Units Are Allegedly Out In The Wild, But You Might Need An Update To Play Games
@Willo567 Yep, even complaining about people complaining. Not that I'm complaining, mind you.
Re: Random: Some Switch Fans Are Convinced Mario Paint Is Returning
I still own a copy, although I regret not buying a generic laser mouse for the SNES from my local Half-Price Books as the original mouse is a pain to use these days.
Re: GameStop To Offer Additional Switch 2 Units In-Store And Online At Launch
I won't have the money for it until late June and just barely. Hopefully, my brother will buy me Mario Kart World for my birthday a few days later.
Re: Here's A Look At The Size And Inside Of Switch 2 Game Cases
So now we get plastic cases with no reversible art and often no game at all inside. Whoopee stinkin' doo!

Re: Switch Users Are Getting Error Codes After Updating To Version 20.0.0
Now you're playing with nothing! Absolutely nothing!!! Until you buy a Switch 2.
Re: Nintendo Of America President On Timing Of Switch 2's Release Date
The perfect time to release a console is during tax season or Christmas time as folks will have tax refunds or Christmas bonus checks to spend.
Re: Nintendo's Official Magazine Is Getting A Special Switch 2 Edition
I don't think America has any gaming magazines at the moment, unless you include the UK ones imported to stores like Barnes and Noble and Joseph Beth Booksellers. Supposedly Game Informer is returning, in my opinion, the worst gaming magazine ever made.
Re: 'EA Sports Madden NFL 26' Switch 2 File Size Seemingly Revealed
It shocks me there are PCs out there with only 64gb SSD drives when games are so darn massive, although I suppose those PCs aren't meant for gaming.
Re: Poll: GameStop Offers A Tempting Switch 2 Trade-In Deal, But Is It Really Worth It?
@Runex2121 I keep ALL of my boxes to maximize its resell/trade-in value.
Re: Poll: GameStop Offers A Tempting Switch 2 Trade-In Deal, But Is It Really Worth It?

Re: Where To Pre-Order Nintendo Switch 2
I wonder if Nintendo will keep the Switch Lite in stock after they phase out the Switch and Switch OLED.
Re: More Switch 2 Estimated File Sizes Seemingly Revealed
Just another reason for me NOT to get a Switch 2, having to buy tons of Micro SD cards for digital game storage.
Re: Mailbox: Switch 2 Price Drops, Remake Replacements, Pokémon Acquisitions - Nintendo Life Letters
I just hope a cheaper version of the console is released such as the Switch 2 Lite. Either that or Nintendo resurrects the GameBoy.
Re: Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection Scores A New Switch Update
Gonna take you for a resolution.....update.
Re: Sony Vet Shuhei Yoshida Says Nintendo Is "Losing Their Identity" With Switch 2
Losing their identity? Seriously, does he not know Nintendo's history? They release 2 of every console. The NES and SNES were the same. The N64 and GCN were the same. The Wii & Wii U were the same. The GBA & GBA were the same. The DS and 3DS were the same. Obviously, the Switch would have a similar console coming out.

Re: Three Sega Genesis / Mega Drive Games Have Been Added To Switch Online's Expansion Pack
Genesis does what Nintendon't. Put their games on their competitors' consoles.
Re: My Nintendo Adds A Switch 2 Reward (North America)
That's off the chain! A real key item! Literally.
Re: Mario Kart World's Character Select Screen Teases Absolutely Huge Roster

Re: Switch 2's Jump From OLED To LCD Wasn't A Decision Nintendo Took Lightly
There will probably two more versions of the Switch 2 anyway, the Switch 2 OLED and the Switch 2 Lite featuring a 720p LCD screen.
Re: Switch 2 Games Cost A Bit More Than You're Probably Expecting
It's insane that I could trade my Switch and Switch Lite to GameStop and still be $150 short of being able to buy this.
Re: Nintendo Download: 27th March (North America)
Potential sequels for "I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream":
I Have No Eyes And I Must See
I Have No Nose And I Must Smell

Re: Switch 2's Pre-Order Date Might Have Been Accidentally Leaked By Best Buy

Re: Nintendo Announces 'Virtual Game Cards' For Switch, Unlocking Digital Lending
Cool, but you could never sell your digital copies, so what's the point? Might as well might a physical copy to share until you wish to sell it.
Re: Nintendo Has Sneakily Confirmed The Switch 2's Mysterious 'C' Button
C is for Cookie.... That's good enough for me.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's SNES Library With Four More Titles
I remember paying $10.00 for Nobunaga's Ambition for GameBoy at Toys R Us. A pretty decent experience, but quite difficult.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Switch 2 To Launch In June With 3-Phase Software Plan
