Super Mario Galaxy in HD? Go on then! 😀

Right now I have the eShop Black Friday sale and My Nintendo birthday discount automatically stacking making a 51% discount on a 2017 Mario game, impressive. If only Nintendo actually did good sales.

Also, please add Switch rewards.

@Masurao @KingdomHeartsFan You can't compare a phenomenon like the Wii to the failed Wii U. And I say this as someone who still likes and uses the system.

@thesilverbrick Strange how they did this for Mario Maker but not the systems themselves.

@Linkstrikesback I see. Makes sense. Though technically even that can change from a demo version.

Reviewing the game based off of a demo? 🤔

@PtM The redesign made it so that Miiverse required you to have a game open before posting to its community. Anyone could post in the Pokemon X&Y and ORAS communities then the redesign happens and the majority of 3DS owners can't for S&M? Even when the game isn't open you still can't post. I don't know why you're trying to defend a design decision which locks out most of the user base, Nintendo could have made the community open like the Smash Bros. one but they don't.

BTW I do have a "New" series system, I'm talking about people that don't.

@PurinPuff There is maintenance for Mario Maker planned for some time near the shutdown, probably addressing this.

The fact that posting in certain communities requires a New 2DS/3DS(XL) even if the game is available for all systems because of the way they designed the redesign. * cough * Smash Bros. * cough * Pokémon S&M.

@GC-161 And now there's Swapdoodle.This just reminds of how bland the Switch is OS wise.

3D wise I've only played Galaxy 1 and 2 as well as 3D Land and World. Galaxy 2 and 3DW are my favourites.

@Yorumi @LegendOfPokemon Looks more like a 20th anniversary thing to me.

@Kalmaro I think it's just a minor spoiler and there's no need for anyone to get so worked up about it. Don't mind Alex, your comment clearly struck a nerve.

@Kalmaro After Breath of the Wild, I definitely don't find them better than this.

I'll be skipping these videos which probably contain spoilers.

Does this contain spoilers?

@KirbyTheVampire Well we do know what they've shown so far.

Switch stock seems quite decent here right now. But we'll see for the holiday season.

@manu0 True. You'll need to have either an old version of iTunes or download the new special version on this page that includes the App Store: https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT208079

Didn't Nintendo permanently ban 3DS systems that went online with Pokémon Sun & Moon before release? They're very strict about this sort of thing.

Unfair that you can use GC controllers but no Wii ones.

This is because the Wii Remote wasn't suitable for SSBB. This is what happens when you succeed something with something seen as inferior. The old version gets stuck with a reputation for being great. It's not the only good controller.

Though It is a very versatile controller seeing as it works on everything GC forward. Cheaper than a Pro too.

I like the 3D but I only have it on sometimes depending on battery or how my eyes feel. Of course I only just upgraded to New 3DS but I'm usually playing something with no 3D. The New 3DS face tracking sometimes causes ghosting as well.

I enjoy the effect but I'm also kind of indifferent.

I don't recall gyms being all that exciting, the trials were decent except for cheapness like Totem Lurantis. I don't really get the complaints about it either. As far as I'm concerned it seems clear they will be going back to gyms in the future... I think so anyway.

Part of this negativity is probably the fact they're rereleasing such a similar looking game one year later. I love Sun & Moon so I'm looking forward to it. Strangely I'm not so sure I'm excited though. Kinda cautious.

@Pichuka97 True. There are so many comments encouraging Nintendo to abandon 3DS owners. Not very considerate.

I didn't read to the bottom, I scrolled past the patch notes.

We haven't seen the whole game so it's too soon to say if it's bad or lazy. It's the subtle changes that make remakes better.

Anyway I actually really enjoyed Sun & Moon so hopefully I'll enjoy this one too.

@justin233 This is not a video-only article so your boycott is invalid.

@BlueOcean I agree with Returns and 3D World. But I think Galaxy's surfing and ball rolling were enjoyable with motion. I suppose they could've added options though.

More features please. It's annoying that you have to go to their older systems for things like Virtual Console.

@able_to_think Isn't that what they're doing?

@RainbowGazelle @Bolt_Strike Which 3? Lost World?

@Falkor Product placement? Mario Kart 8 would like to have a word.

The only recent Mario game where lives actually matter is Super Mario Maker. Otherwise they're pretty unimportant.

I enjoy it but the music could be a Wii era DSi, 3DS, Wii U thing. The Switch is meant to be different. The extreme simplicity of the system could use some work though.

Is the Switch eShop that bad?

Very disappointing but not surprising, Wii U next.

@Kirby-in-Kirkby They're not shutting down the Wii U eshop just the backward compatibility Wii Shop Channel.

That's nice. Now please expand the options of what's available, also, add Switch rewards.

And why do gold coins expire so fast? I had 100 now I only have 50 and I've spent none.

Mario Kart Wii, DS and 7. Had the most fun with Wii. Currently though 7 and older feel outdated so I'm most likely on 8, but I enjoyed the others more in their time.

North American Switch stock seems moderate. In stock at Walmart, Amazon, and Bestbuy for online purchase in Canada. (Grey only) Mostly out of stock in stores.

Available online in the US (Amazon, Walmart) but at scalping prices in the middle of the $300 -$400 range. In stock at BestBuy at regular price.

The stock situation is definitely improving but I’m a little weary of the holiday season.

Well that's rather blunt. Lol the sarcasm in this article.

@Nintendoforlife Why would you want a YouTube app when Nintendo's browser YouTube is better? On both the New 3DS and especially Wii U the browser's YouTube has more features than the app plus it allows you to go on YouTube without having to close your game.

Basically:
Browser with YouTube >>> poorly designed YouTube app.

The site is glitching for me.

@Saego That’s fine. I’m just referring to the “just die already” and “no one cares about the 3DS” comments. They come off kinda self-centred/selfish. Nintendo has every right to cater to their existing fanbase if they so choose. Plus Samus Returns probably wouldn’t even exist.

@AhabSpampurse Discounts are not free. Unless you already intended to, they’re trying to manipulate you into purchasing something you wouldn’t otherwise.

The 3DS hate is annoying, the Switch only has a fraction of the 3DS or even Wii U’s sales. Of course they’re not done with it yet.

It’s success is restricted by stock, but if it’s going to be successful, I can see it really taking off over the next year and a bit.

@shani Yeah I don’t know why they didn’t bother trying to rescue the Wii U. They did with the 3DS with price drops and stuff and it worked. Of course, that was early in it’s lifecycle. Maybe it’s harder for them to tell if a home console is doing badly. Or they just wanted to move on to the Switch.

@shani Huh? They did put resources into the Wii U, it didn't work. Nintendo is just much more successful with handhelds. GamePad just didn't bring much to the table.

They're also selling the regular new 3DS in NA on the online store. Now the Switch stock needs addressing.
