these look really cool! im glad they’re available to purchase with platinum points, what a deal there!
@Robot99 i was thinking the same thing! and yoshi is May on both calendars, which could hint at the new one’s release date, and Splatoon Raiders in November makes sense! Mario Tennis is releasing in already-confirmed february, MKW DLC for next december?
im glad to see she has a lot of experience in the company, although i wish she was a bit more of a fan, but hey we all have other stuff in our lives. she sounds like she will keep the company in a good place, and its amazing to see that she is the first female president!
So fascinating that a thing simple as hd rumble can make your experience more delightful. and that its just wonderful on Switch 2! also really shows the care that Team Cherry poured into this game.
also glad you enjoyed your time in Greece!!!
this is great news! im very pleased to see that there is a demo, and that square is getting it out before the year ends too! i do want the trilogy on switch eventually, but i gotta get a good memory card first haha 😸
im glad they are really pushing this! the mechanics and gameplay look refreshing and unique, but just not my style. however, for $20, i think the game justifies it. and more updates! yay!
this is so surprising, I didnt really hear often about him, but it takes a certain kindof person to be the lead of a company. i hope he finds his other dreams and successfully chases them! as for devon, she seems like a good fit, im excited to see more of her.
goodness thats a great sale too bad i dont have any money to spend currently 😢 will deffo get eventually! i wish they would collab with nintendo and put mario or link in while we wait for the next smash
i think its pretty clear pauline from bananza is the same one from odyssey, the ending kinda takes care of it. and the grandma is the one in the OG dk. i do wish there was like a adventuring toad or something on dk island for further proof. and goodness comments, let us mario historians have some FUN!
for that price its a steal not gonna lie. and ive been needing a case for it….thanks nintendolife for the review!!!! although i do want a kirby themed one eventually 😛
going to be playing some bananza dlc (emerald rush is going to take a long time to 100% 🙁), playing some of the levels in mario maker 2 posted on here, and i got skyward sword hd as a gift, so i think i might start that up 😸 happy gaming folks! @D-Star92 congratulations on finishing bananza!!! its such a fun, even emotional, game. and the postgame content is a joy to play through too!
good milestone for switch 2! i wish dk bananza would sell more, what a masterpiece. itll be fun seeing z-a, air riders, and hyrule warriors compete with each other!
that direct was so good. one of the best of all time in my opinion. there are so many good looking titles on the way, some i will for sure grab are Kirby Air Riders, Wonder Switch 2 Edition, Final Fantasy 7, Yoshi and the Mysterious Book and hyrule warriors!
great review!!! i didnt expect a 10/10 but boy was i wrong! i still need to play the first one. a thing i appreciate about it is that it is challenging, not many games nowdays have a good difficulty (unless its cuphead or a soulslike). way to go team cherry! and 120fps 😻
this article is so hesrtwarming, thank you PJ for sharing! ive never played undertale but its always been “oh yeah, i need to play that eventually!” and has a huge fan of Mother 2 im sure I would adore it.
@Thomystic yeah i sold the game early last year, so id have to get it again, eighty dollars and all. probably will make the splurge though, especially if the character leak is true
hello lovely people! this weekend im jumping into the new DK BANANZA DLC!!! i played a bit last night and its so fun but gonna be hard to 100% 😭 im also gonna probably finally continue my progress with wind waker, and check out a few levels in mario maker that were posted here 😸
happy gaming NL!
goodness gracious those prices are atrocious 😭 originally i thought the amiibos were so neat and planned to get one, but now i think ill just treat myself to a metroid prime four one.
i didn’t think this deserved one more thing (maybe im just mad about it not being animal crossing) but it looks like a big, deep game, so it might be my first venture into the series!
OH MY GOD! i really wanted kirby, even mentioned it in the forums, so im so happy about this. thank you nintendo 🫶🫶🫶 2025 really is the year of kirby 🙂
switch 2 is almost to two million in japan!!!! exciting!!! mario kart worlds numbers are impressive. although i wish bananzas was a little higher. im excited to see what kirby will be next weeks charts! mario party jamboree switch 2 edition has already sold pretty well!
it is crazy how much detail the developers put into their characters. i never thought much of pauline before, but now shes one of my favorites. im excited to see the animations when hopefully teen pauline is added to MKW 😛
waking up to “poyo!” in the momring actually soubds like a dream. im still on the fence because of the price and the weird motion sensory, but im glad its getting more stuff 😝
yesss you go dk bananza! having spent seventy hours myself in this beautiful game im glad its selling well! i got digital, so it doesnt count here, so its ultra impressive with the amount of physical
