I picked the JA version since the background looks nicer compared to the NA version ugly grass texture in the background but that's really not saying that much because I honestly think the duel is a draw since neither are really that special.

This looks interesting

Man I'm kinda spilt on this one this week because I like the NA and JP covers equally for different reasons for starters with the NA cover i like the whole mine cart style because it gives off DKC 1 vibes which i kinda like and then the Japanese version is cool because it's shows off all the cool cast of characters way better than the EU version in my opinion but ultimately I picked the JA version because it's the more interesting out of the 3 but that's not to say the NA version is bad either mind you.

I honestly just want the key chain for some strange reason and also wasn't the PS1 game also supposed to be included here in the collection because it's not mentioned in the included games list if I'm not mistaken 🤔

I hope this game turns out to be great based on the current footage here.

Overall this was pretty good compared to the snore fest of the partner show case . I'm really excited to try out UFO 50 and also Mina.

Realistically they probably just gonna do a few switch 2 updates to certain mario games on switch 1 with a few new bells and whistles added. I'm thinking maybe switch 2 updates of mario wonder with a few badge challenges and mario marker 2 with mouse mode and a few new themes and stuff like that. But we'll just have to wait and see because trying to predict nintendos next major move is like trying to predict the lucky numbers in the lottery .

I played the game before the updates to 60 FPS and stuff like that and while yes some stages chugged hard on FPS it still wasn't all that much of a deal breaker to me since the gameplay and music is really good.

I picked the NA version because it looks more official as a GBA game compared to the JP version which looks like a werid bootleg version but to fair saying that the NA version is the best is really not saying that much because both covers kinda suck in their own respective ways.

I picked the Japanese version because it shows off more the different vehicle types used in the game the NA/EU cover isn't that bad but it's not great either ( the same could be said for the Japanese cover but it's the only decent version of the covers here).

The walugi one is probably my favorite one of the whole bunch here.

Honestly what is nintendo even expecting from us at this point like every that's top secret gets leaked eventually because when theirs a will there's a way.

This might be something related to the drag x drive switch 2 nso demo (https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2025/07/nintendo-announces-global-jam-demo-event-for-switch-2-online-members) ( I'm not for sure yet but it's just an educated guess)
or something else entirely but If it is something new I'd give it like mabye 1-2 days until it gets leaked out into the public eye similar to the last time they did this type of thing .

What's even the point in snatching up all of these good dev teams with fantastic talent only to just lay them off shortly after and cancel projects that these teams have put their blood, sweat and tears into which eventually leads to the death of the game dev teams as a whole. It just seems like a big waste of everyone's time all for nothing in most cases.

I'm honestly just gonna wait a little while before jumping over to the switch 2 bandwagon mainly for 2 reasons. One is the price and certain games being like what 70-80 dollars now and also there's just so many switch 1 titles that still haven't played yet.

I always love the n64 Japanese box arts because they just give off a better sense of chaos that these games give off.

Personally to me theses billboards like either like temporary placeholders given that early footage showen off so far was probably an build of the game or it's just an art style choice making it look like abstract art 🎨. There's no way in hell that nintendo would use artificial intelligence to do art for them given how much they are against the uses of it in game development.

@stache13 I'm mean your kinda not wrong but still it's just they were crossing the line a little bit too far here.

I honestly wish that nintendo/game freak would have sued them for the obvious reasons (near identical ripoff pokemon like designs ) instead of something so dumb like this.

I predict that this company is going to lose its court battle against the big n and is going to be responsible for coughing up money to pay for the damage its caused which honestly they 100% deserve it.

Honestly I kinda saw this coming from a mile away cause do they really think that they could get away with this i mean anyone who does something to make nintendo unleash their legal ninjas is always gonna get their punishment of some sort so yeah they 100% deserved this.

After playing pizza tower and antonblast back to back it made me realize how much we need a new warioland game either 2D or 3D I honestly don't care i just want wario to get back to his own series besides warioware.

I'm probably just gonna get the carrying case plus screen protector and mabye the new mirco sd card just to add a little bit more space but other than that that's pretty much I'll i need.

Side note 📝- I will only buy a new pro controller unless my current switch 1 version brakes or gets really bad drift on it .

Inbento is a really good and chill puzzle game that i think should be given a shout out.

I voted for the Japanese version because sometimes less is more and plus the background flowers 💐 just give it a nice sense of spring time vibes. And as for the North American and European version, it's fine it's just that the cgi renders are a little bit on the uncanny valley side of things but still good just not my favorite though.

Meh I never really cared about achievement hunting all that much but the whole eshop music 🎶 although it's sad and I would kinda like to have some background music when shopping but at the same time it's something that i can live without to be honest.

Good now don't have to try this now , i licked switch 1 carts once before I and instantly regretted it lol 😆.....

I already own this on switch and I think it runs actually fairly well given the hardware specs, I'm mean sure the frame rate is locked at 30fps and the load times are a bit long but overall still a rock solid switch 1 port so I think I'll probably pass on this for now but maybe later in the future I'll check it out.

Well that's a relief I was nervous about having to replace my pro controller cause hey if it ain't broke then don't fix it i guess.....

Honestly I think it's actually a slight improvement over the current switch home screen because sometimes less things on the screen the better, i just hope that they still have some more background color options or something like that......

Well it took them long enough to realize that this was a mega issue that plagued eshop experience but hey better late than never I suppose.....

I'm kinda excited but also kinda scared because I'm just worried that something is going to get lost in transition from game to the sliver screen 😅.....

I really wanna see sonic frontiers get a switch 2 hardware boost because that game seriously needs some tlc .

I'm interested to see how star overdrive and marvel cosmic invasion turns out on switch.

Because I'm cautiously optimistic about star overdrive since it's visual style looks nice from the trailers that I've seen but I'm just scared that it's gonna be a technical nightmare from the general size and scope of the game. As for marvel cosmic invasion I'm just interested in seeing what other characters show up .

I like the Japanese version because it shows the full artwork (plus the character portraits are a nice touch too) whereas the North American version with the cropped art work and all of those text bubbles around the art is just really not appealing to the eyes at all.

I'm still in shock that a stuipd not so good mario party clone but with sonic characters is actually cannon whereas stuff like advance 1 is not .

@OctoAmbush I know about team fortress 2 , I was just saying how certain popular f2p games are still alive and stuff like that......

Why am I not surprised by this 😐

Anything that is free to play always has a insanely short lifespan unless of course you name is cough cough fortnight.....

I went with the NA cover because the Japanese cover just doesn't scream ninja gaiden to me to be honest and yes the NA cover is good it's just not that great since the art is kinda poorly drawn but compared to the Japanese cover it's leagues better just because of the background .

YO let's go I freaking love this show, I mean besides the famicom game which is fine there hasn't been any real games based on the show since then ( i could be wrong so be please free to correct me....)

Is Xbox on its way to becoming the next sega now 🤔?

Because things like these make me wonder if Xbox is planning on going full 3rd party now at this point.

I've heard of this game 🎮, it looks kinda cool 😎

And here come the nintendo ninjas in 3,2,1 and boom instant lawsuit ....

@RetroGames Yeah mabye you're right, it's just that some of the leaks I do believe like the 3d models of the switch 2 and the more recent dummy models it's just that the hardware specs of the more recent leaks im still kinda on the fence about because would nintendo really make it a system that's on par with the PS3 -PS4 I'm mean if the tech is old enough and cheap enough for them to use then sure that's fine but I still feel like nintendo is going to throw us a curve ball on us .....

I'm still kinda on the fence about all of this flood of switch 2 rumors because half of me wants to believe them and the other half of me doesn't. Makes me kinda wish nintendo would just get ready to just officially reveal this switch successor already.....

I very vaguely remember trying them out once or twice I'm not sure what game it was for though 🤔.....

Man it's not even April yet and the reddit people are already pulling out the April fools day jokes .....

Yikes, i just read this guy's Wikipedia page and man he has done some pretty nasty things 😳.....

I'm not really sure if this supposed spiritual sequel is a good idea at this point considering the fact that their are so many minecraft clones and cheap rip offs out there .

@canaryfarmer Thanks for the tip I'll have to check it out sometime.

@DripDropCop146 Oh dang that's bad
