@Robot99 It's weird for sure, but it's not the first time Nintendo's down that, as they released Wario Land 3 and 4 on the service BEFORE Wario Land 1 and 2!
Wow- this is the first time that Nintendo themselves has been 100% WRONG with the timeline placement of one of their own games. Metroid Prime 4: Beyond OBVIOUSLY takes place after Metroid Prime: Federation Force!
Oh- so it's still getting a home media physical release (DVD, Blu-ray, 4K, etc) then? Well THAT'S a relief. I thought it was just being released on Netflix after the theatrical release with no home media release, so I'm glad to hear that's not the case, and that the film is indeed getting a physical home media DVD/Blu-ray/4K release!
@SurprisedRobinChu Nintendo has said that ALL 1st Party Nintendo-developed games will be on normal game cards, so that couldn't be further from the truth!
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption HD remasters, Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD collection, Mother 3 official localization for NSO OR EarthBound Trilogy Remake for Switch, possibly Super Mario Party Jamboree DLC, possibly Super Mario 3D All-Stars 2 with Super Mario Galaxy 2, Super Mario 3D Land and Super Mario 64 DS included, and lastly possibly other remakes as well!
@Pastellioli They likely won't remove any more games unless said games are bad and/or have no solid player base like Super Soccer does/is. The other 3rd party games have solid player bases, so they should be safe!
@Knightrider1 Nintendo and Rare/Microsoft own Goldeneye 007 though- which is NOT the case with Super Soccer! Also, it's only being delisted in some countries- not all of them! North America will still have it!
@shonenjump86 But it will! In fact, it was already confirmed a few years ago with an article talking about a Mother series script book being available in all languages, including other news- which obviously means a Mother 3 localization! The ONLY reason it hasn't happened yet is because COVID threw a wrench in Nintendo's plans! Also, don't be a criminal and play the fan translation, as that's illegal to do.
I wonder if casual/easy mode will be making a return from the other games. I certainly hope so, as I only played the original Wii U version once- right when it first came out- because the final boss was SO hard it took me literally an entire day to beat! Casual/easy mode would help make that fight much, MUCH easier! Anyone think casual/easy mode will get in?
@shonenjump86 Of COURSE it'll be released in the West! It's 1000% inevitable! Encouraging playing the fan translation makes people criminals, as that's the illegal way of playing it!

Re: Pokémon XD: Gale Of Darkness Comes To Switch 2 GameCube NSO In March
Why release XD BEFORE Colosseum? That's weird. Oh well, I'll be waiting to play XD until I can play Colosseum first!

Re: An Overlooked Disney Collection From Digital Eclipse Has Been Rated For Switch
Physical copy? Please? PLEASE?!?!? (and no- I am NOT referring to a dang Game-Key Card)

Re: Donkey Kong Country Returns HD Gets A Free Switch 2 Update And Adds Dixie Kong
@Joeynator3000 He's running the shop in DKCR HD, so I highly doubt he'll be playable!

@BTB20 No I don't!
Re: Pokémon Pokopia Is Nintendo's First Game-Key Card Release
@rvcolem1 Sorry to burst your bubble, but an all-digital future doesn't exist. Never has, never will.
Re: Pokémon Pokopia Is Nintendo's First Game-Key Card Release
@SurprisedRobinChu How so?

@UltimateOtaku91 It's not the "minority" voicing concerns at Game-Key Cards though- it's the majority of people!
Re: Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 Bundle Confirmed For Switch, Launching October
@Arawn93 I have 3D All-Stars physically and yet I'm still buying the physical bundle, because it's physical!
Re: Super Mario Galaxy 1 & 2 Bundle Confirmed For Switch, Launching October
@Cyrax77 They literally showed the physical copy in a photo!

@StewdaMegaManNerd There are no "game-key card fans" though!

Re: Nintendo Direct Confirmed For Tomorrow, 27th March 2025
My list of the top most likely predictions:
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption HD remasters, Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD collection, Mother 3 official localization for NSO OR EarthBound Trilogy Remake for Switch, possibly Super Mario Party Jamboree DLC, possibly Super Mario 3D All-Stars 2 with Super Mario Galaxy 2, Super Mario 3D Land and Super Mario 64 DS included, and lastly possibly other remakes as well!

Re: Yooka-Replaylee Remaster Officially Confirmed For 'Nintendo Platforms'
But will there be a physical release? That's what I want to know!
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition Confirmed For Switch

Re: Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition Confirmed For Switch
@mariomaster96 It'll still be playable on the Switch 2 due to backwards compatibility, so it's not really a big deal!
Re: Video: Yooka-Replaylee Side-By-Side Graphics Comparison (Original & Remaster)
@roy130390 It won't be on the Switch- it'll be on the Switch's successor!

Re: How To Change Your Nintendo Account Region And Play Mother 3 On Switch
Why bother doing this when an official Mother 3 localization is inevitable anyway?
Re: Mother 3 Is Coming To Nintendo Switch Online, But There's A Catch
@Fighting_Game_Loser But Mother 3 will be getting an official localization. It's not even a matter of "if", it's a matter of "when"!
Re: Mother 3 Switch Icons Out Now, But They're Only Available In Japan
@Pho Actually, it will most certainly happen!
Re: Nintendo Releases New EarthBound Beginnings Switch Online Icons
Great! This basically confirms that Mother 3 will 100% be coming to North America eventually!
