This game is selling really well already, and it usually sells well slowly over time. I believe it has a better debut week than the other Mario Parties on Switch, which shows Switch is still going strong!
Honestly some of these changes feel unnecessary and get rid of some comedic effect, but it’s not too major. I’m okay with some changes in remakes in general, but there’s a lot of times where it doesn’t feel necessary. Nothing to get that worked up over, it’s just a Sonic game remastered!
@Olliemar28 people were saying that a while ago, I'd actually really like that! Maybe we can get Fire DK in the game (like in the movie!). Maybe eventually we'd get a side game with Luigi and Diddy Kong XD
Apparently Super Mario Party Jamboree'sUK physical sales were35% higherthanMario Party Superstarsfor launch. This is a huge Mario Party that proves Switch is still doing quite well!
This is so early, spoilers are probably out there so I guess it's already time to watch out.
If Nintendo isn't allowing pre-orders for Amazon US because of it arriving to some people 1-2 days early, I think Nintendo has bigger problems to deal with.
That's too bad it won't available to get on mobile anymore. I got the Switch version earlier this year, pretty neat game! (And can be quite challenging at times)
My guess is the new Smash Bros, but hard to say since he seemed to be looking for a team.
I'd love a new Kirby game by Sakurai himself, but I doubt it. This project seemed to have gotten it's team just one month after Kirby and the Forgotten Land though. He technically could be remaking one of the games he worked on, that'd be pretty cool.
Man it feels like there's been so many previews for this game, it seems like there's a lot to say about it! We got TTYD, Super Mario RPG, and now the return of Mario & Luigi!
Cool to see this one return. I played the original Banjo Kazooie on NSO and it was a great time! I hope we get more Rare games in the near future (especially Donkey Kong 64 and Diddy Kong Racing)! Nice to see this game get widescreen mode as well.
I feel like we’ve been waiting so long to see that 3D remaster and now it’s gone. Sad to see this happen to Namco, hope for the best for the people effected
Eurogamer gave it a 4/10, I have a feeling the reviewer lost because of bonus stars
Anyways that's good to hear from NL, 9/10 is great! Most people seem to be giving it a 9/10, certainly not a bad thing. Also I love to see Shy Guy in nearly all of the photos in this review! Such a great character and glad he's a big part of this Mario Party. Monty Mole's shocked expression in this game is great XD
The NSO Playtest for a new feature and the 19.0.0 update messing with GameCube controller compatibility, along with this rumor could be hinting at something. Not gonna get my hopes up too high but I’d love to see GameCube on NSO, especially for Luigi’s Mansion!
@LadyCharlie thanks for the warning, I'll be careful.
In all seriousness, some people want to start the game without knowing much at all, so this is a good warning to avoid any spoilers.
There's also a kind-of single player campaign, who knows how it ends? Might not be too exciting for some people (it could be though!) but not necessarily something people want to know before playing.
@SillyG Yeah I know, I believe it’s similar to how NSO works where they won’t add any rated M games on the app rated T. Sure, this is just an alarm clock, but having a T rated game on it may take away from it’s family-friendly nature.
I love seeing Pikmin 4 here, only 5 games for the base clock and Pikmin is one of them! Pikmin is feeling like a bigger franchise now than it has ever been. I don't plan on getting this Alarmo ($100!) personally, but it does seem to have quite a bit of features.
I like the Mario + Rabbids games but I'm not really interested in anything else Ubisoft, especially since most of their stuff has way too many unnecessary microtransactions that should've been included with the game already.
I love how Bowser Jr. has a little throne next to Bowser's!
A Magickoopa's broom can be seen to the left of Bowser Jr., and also Toad is seen in a few shots as well. Nice to see a mix of new and old Mario characters, especially is this unique art style!
Let’s go Nintendo! Some people may not appreciate that I am against this kind of emulation, but I really do think that Nintendo is winning against these emulators for a reason! (hint: it shouldn’t be allowed)
@PJOReilly is the game like Mario Party Superstars where you log on your different Switch accounts when you first go on the game? If so I assume guest is still an option?
Nice to hear that there aren't any performance issues! The graphics look really awesome in the game, especially in some of the mini-games and the cooking rhythm game.
It feels like Super Smash Bros Ultimate/Mario Kart 8 Deluxe where it seems almost impossible for the series to get much bigger than this.
Isn’t this just logic? Of course it should say if you own the game you buy. This shouldn’t even have to be a new law lol, surprised California of all states was the first to do this
That’s really cool! Nintendo has gone a long way, now being a huge entertainment company, making mostly games but also movies and theme parks. Can’t wait to see what else Nintendo has in store these coming years!

Re: Mario & Luigi: Brothership Developer Has Supposedly Been Revealed
I don’t believe I’ve played any games by Acquire, but I’m super excited for this one!
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Sonic X Shadow Generations
Sega’s probably scared of how it runs on Switch
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Super Mario Party Jamboree?
I haven’t played it yet, but it’s looks awesome. Probably gonna be the best one since 8!
The people who give it a 1/10 on this poll probably got their star stolen on the last turn (or perhaps the Eurogamer reviewer?)
Re: As Expected, Nintendo Is Struggling To Contain Switch Online Playtest Leaks
Not sure why Nintendo didn't expect this, they should have prepared and announced it before.
Re: Preview: Mario & Luigi: Brothership - A Couple Of Concerns, But Otherwise Looking Shipshape
Also this picture makes the Mushroom Kingdom look a lot like the one in Mario Odyssey with it's fountain, hills, and rivers.

Re: Nintendo's Mysterious Switch Online Playtest Program Is Now Accessible
As I said on the thread, this is no GameCube NSO but this is actually pretty cool and I hope it releases to the public soon!
Re: Mario & Luigi: Brothership Is Seemingly Another 'Unreal Engine' Effort
It's so early for the physical copy to be out there already. It's probably a good idea to try to avoid spoilers now.
Yoshi's Crafted World and Pikmin 4 look awesome in Unreal Engine, and this game is looking to be yet another stunning game in the engine!
Re: Masahiro Sakurai Teases His YouTube Channel's "Special Finale"
That's pretty exciting, hopefully it's a good ending to his Creating Games series!
Re: Best Super Mario Games Of All Time
Can’t believe it’s been a year since Mario Wonder, what an incredible game.
Super Mario 64 is #1 for me, but there’s so many good games on this list!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (19th October)
I wonder what those who got into the playtest will be playing next weekend…
I may play some Super Kirby Clash and possibly a bit of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door this weekend.
Re: Xbox Studio Rare Excited About The Return Of Banjo-Tooie Next Week
I wish Nintendo owned Banjo Kazooie, I want a Banjo Threeie, and I’m not sure if Microsoft can or will make it.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's N64 Library Next Week
Cool to see this one return. I played the original Banjo Kazooie on NSO and it was a great time! I hope we get more Rare games in the near future (especially Donkey Kong 64 and Diddy Kong Racing)! Nice to see this game get widescreen mode as well.

Re: Switch Online's Expansion Pack Promises "Excitement" In 2025
I really hope it's GameCube, and there's certainly evidence to back it up, but if it's not I still hope it's a cool new feature!
Re: Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake Gets Gorgeous Overview Trailer
the ‘HD-2D Remake’ part in the title is a bit much.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Might Be Gearing Up For A GameCube Controller Comeback
Please be for GameCube NSO!
The NSO Playtest for a new feature and the 19.0.0 update messing with GameCube controller compatibility, along with this rumor could be hinting at something. Not gonna get my hopes up too high but I’d love to see GameCube on NSO, especially for Luigi’s Mansion!

Re: Nintendo Asks Switch Online Playtest Program Participants To "Not Discuss Or Disclose Content"
If Nintendo doesn't announce what this is beforehand, it's pretty much guaranteed people will find out what this is through people leaking it.
Re: Video: We've Played Mario & Luigi: Brothership - Here's 15 Minutes Of Gameplay
The talking character sounds reminds me of Animal Crossing and that is a very good thing
Re: Hands On: Mario & Luigi: Brothership Shows The Bros. Are Back In Classic RPG Form
The overview trailer shows a returning Mario & Luigi character, Starlow.
Re: Hands On: Mario & Luigi: Brothership Shows The Bros. Are Back In Classic RPG Form
Brothership is looking really promising so far! This game's animations are very well done, excited to see more.
Re: Nintendo Announces Switch Online: Playtest Program Related To "New Feature"
Interesting, I hope we hear what this is about soon!
Re: Forget 'Switch 2', Nintendo Has Just Revealed An Official Alarm Clock
@SillyG Yeah I know, I believe it’s similar to how NSO works where they won’t add any rated M games on the app rated T. Sure, this is just an alarm clock, but having a T rated game on it may take away from it’s family-friendly nature.
Re: Forget 'Switch 2', Nintendo Has Just Revealed An Official Alarm Clock
I believe the Alarmo page says E-E10+ so Xenoblade and Metroid probably won't ever get alarm themes.
Re: Forget 'Switch 2', Nintendo Has Just Revealed An Official Alarm Clock
I love seeing Pikmin 4 here, only 5 games for the base clock and Pikmin is one of them! Pikmin is feeling like a bigger franchise now than it has ever been. I don't plan on getting this Alarmo ($100!) personally, but it does seem to have quite a bit of features.
Re: Nintendo Switch System Update 19.0.0 Is Now Live, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
Great update. Really revolutionizes my Switch experience. At this point I don't even need a Switch 2.

Re: Round Up: The Latest Previews Are In For Super Mario Party Jamboree
This feels like it's gonna be one of Nintendo's biggest multiplayer games, glad to see very positive impressions so far!
Re: Nintendo Slays Switch Emulator Ryujinx
I see Snake from Animal Crossing on the article photo, he's awesome!

Re: First Impressions: Nintendo's Taken Feedback To Heart With 'Super Mario Party Jamboree'
@PJOReilly is the game like Mario Party Superstars where you log on your different Switch accounts when you first go on the game? If so I assume guest is still an option?
Re: Upcoming Nintendo Switch Games And Accessories For October And November 2024
Mario & Luigi Brothership is my most hyped game right now, and a close 2nd is Super Mario Party Jamboree. Can’t wait for these games!
Re: First Impressions: Nintendo's Taken Feedback To Heart With 'Super Mario Party Jamboree'

Re: Californian Law Dictates Storefronts Be Honest About Digital Game Ownership

Re: Super Mario Party Jamboree Gets Jam-Packed Overview Trailer
This game looks so good, looks like it'll be one of the best in the series!
Paratroopa Flight School really excites me, the Free Flight, Paratroopa Taxi, and Sky Battle modes just all sound like so much fun!
Seems like we're getting a single player campaign as well ( Not in the overview trailer, but shown here https://www.nintendo.com/jp/switch/a7hla/trek/index.html )
Re: Mario & Luigi: Brothership Free Slipcover Pre-Order Bonus Revealed
These look nice, I wish Nintendo made more slipcover options like this, or even reversable slipcovers.
Re: Anniversary: Nintendo Is 135 Years Old Today

Re: Catch-Up Crew: Donkey Kong Country - "I Liked His Big Red, Er, Ribbit-Bag?"
This is in my top 10 games of all time, it's a great time. Glad to see it getting more recognition, with this article and the Box Art Brawl!
Hopefully someday we get a new entry in the series, it is long overdue.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Donkey Kong Country (GBA)
I chose North America even though it seems like the least popular. I really like how the colors look on it for some reason.
Europe is probably 2nd for me, I like how it shows King K Rool, Funky, and other really cool characters that the Japan/NA ones don’t show.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (21st September)
I’ll probably be playing Super Mario Bros Wonder and maybe some Paper Mario TTYD. Those are the most recent games I got day 1, both great experiences!
