This looks awesome! I was hoping to see more games, but other than that this looks very promising. I wish I didn't have to wait so long for the Direct!
How about the first mainline 3D Kirby happening? I thought that was a huge moment for Switch.
Pikmin 4, Metroid Prime 4, and RPG Paper Mario (even though it was a remake) finally happening after so long were pretty Switch defining as well.
Also, Mario Odyssey was a huge miss not to put on this list, and a 2D Mario that wasn’t a part of the “New” sub-series was insane considering it’s been since Gameboy.
The Switch 1 game boxes seem almost exactly the same size as the Switch screen, so maybe Switch 2 game boxes will be about as big as the Switch 2 screen?
When Nintendo finally reveals the thing I hope we have more of a focus on software in the initial trailer, because we seemingly already know most things about the hardware
I honestly am not a huge fan of modern Minecraft as it now feels more a paid F2P micro-transaction game (thanks to Microsoft). Idk who this person is, but I think older Minecraft is so much better.
Merry Christmas everyone! I’m not sure what I’ll play this weekend, but I played some Wario’s Woods recently and it’s a really fun puzzle game, so maybe I’ll play that!
I mean there's almost no doubt this thing will absolutely crush the next xbox in terms of sales, but I could see it being a little closer with PS6. sony pretty much only relies on power, and you can only get so powerful. PS6 could certainly be a small/expensive upgrade and many consumers may not find it worth getting (especially if it doesn't have many exclusives similar to PS5). I think Switch 2 will beat the other consoles on the market fairly easily, but not sure by how much.
This seems like it’d be significantly faster than Switch, which is fine by me. I don’t really know how helpful this is if it just supports these SD cards, but I’m down for these really fast times!
I’m a huge fan of the DKC series, but I won’t be getting this. I could get the identical game for literally 1/4th of the price for 3DS, and I won’t have to wait until release date. Nintendo needs to spend time making a new DKC instead of selling this game for a 3rd time since Wii!
Nintendo should buy it and mainly just make Mario + Rabbids games and perhaps some Rayman as well! They need new leadership and direction, and I’m sure Nintendo would give them both of those things.
This is like Pikmin where a huge portion of the sales come from Japan. This seems probably around 2/3 of the sales in Japan (I could be wrong though, since we only have physical sales from there)
@MrPeanutbutterz You keep removing context from what I'm saying. PS2 does have a popular game library, I'm just saying that's not where a lot of that 160 million sales came from. Arguably a pretty good way to get people to get a video game console, and perhaps some people who have never played video games got their first ones! Please don't call others opinions invalid, they are perfectly valid using more context and less assumptions.
@MrPeanutbutterz I think they had more personality back in the PS1 days, but as of recent a lot of what they are putting out is generic. I think saying they revolutionized gaming is a bit of a stretch. More likely they revolutionized watching movies for cheap on the 'gaming' console PS2.
Ubisoft has done many game decisions which weren't good, I feel bad for those affected by this but this studio probably isn't a great environment. Hate to see how the gaming industry has been hurt this year by layoffs.

Re: Nintendo Switch 2 Reveal Trailer Gives First Official Look At The New Console
This looks awesome! I was hoping to see more games, but other than that this looks very promising. I wish I didn't have to wait so long for the Direct!
Re: Rumour: 'Switch 2' Will Reportedly Be Officially Revealed This Thursday
With how many comments there are you'd think this was Nintendo themselves announcing it!
Re: Retro Staff Credits Removed From Donkey Kong Country Returns HD, Forever Entertainment Confirmed As Devs
Maybe it’s good that the OG team isn’t credited for making the game worse? Please have a separate thing with the wii/3ds developers!
Re: Random: Geez, PS5 Game 'Anime Life Sim' Sure Looks Familiar
Seems like another lawsuit approaching
Also that side-by-side picture makes me think this could be partially made by AI, but I’m no expert at telling that kind of stuff 😆
Re: Rumour: 'Switch 2' Will Reportedly Be Officially Revealed This Thursday
That’s the day of the DK port but this guy has been pretty accurate when talking about Direct reveal timing so I think he could be right about this.

Re: Round Up: 'Switch 2' Renders Suggest A Sleek, Classy Successor
The Switch 1 game boxes seem almost exactly the same size as the Switch screen, so maybe Switch 2 game boxes will be about as big as the Switch 2 screen?
Re: 'Switch 2' And Software Listings Spotted On French Retailer's Internal Database
I’m more interested in 1st party games. Hoping Nintendo makes an announcement soon, I’d rather Nintendo do that part than the leaks.
Re: Surprise! Another 'Switch 2' Accessory Has Been Revealed
There’s more leaks for Switch 2 than Mario and Luigi can handle!
Re: Talking Point: Is The Switch 2 Going To Be Too Big?
The rumored measurements don't seem too big. I just don't want the next console to be much bigger than that.
Re: Nintendo and Lego Are Collaborating On A New Game Boy Set
Cool, I like when they make console LEGO. Hopefully SNES, 64, and GameCube at somepoint down the line?
Re: PS5 Will Sell More Than 'Switch 2' In The US This Year, Says Analyst
Doubt it.
(that's all I got to say, but it was too short lol)
Re: Multiple Switch Games Nominated For New York Game Awards
Idk what these awards are but seem a lot better than the other game awards!
Re: Talking Point: Everyone Else Is Busy Revealing Switch 2 - What Gives, Nintendo?
When Nintendo finally reveals the thing I hope we have more of a focus on software in the initial trailer, because we seemingly already know most things about the hardware
Re: Tencent Labeled A "Chinese Military Company" By US Government
Interesting. I doubt this connection with the Chinese military but I am not a fan of this company anyways based off of what little I know.
Re: 'Nintendo Music' Adds Another Donkey Kong Soundtrack, Here's Every Song Included
I started listening to some of the songs and I forgot how good they were! Not as good as the first 2 DKC OSTs but still some of the best on SNES!
Re: The Pokémon Company Has Seemingly Dubbed 2025 "The Year Of Eevee"
I already wasn’t a huge fan of Pokemon but this gives me absolutely no hope we’ll ever get to a good game any time soon
Re: Original Minecraft Creator Has "Basically Announced" A Spiritual Successor
I honestly am not a huge fan of modern Minecraft as it now feels more a paid F2P micro-transaction game (thanks to Microsoft). Idk who this person is, but I think older Minecraft is so much better.
Re: Rumour: Supposed Images Of The 'Switch 2' Motherboard Appear Online
I'm pretty sure everyone will reveal the console before Nintendo does
Re: Feature: Biggest Nintendo Gaming Anniversaries Of 2025
Super Mario Bros 40th anniversary celebrations will likely be big, can’t wait to see what’s in store!
Paper Mario 25th is also pretty cool, doubt we’ll get anything, but I would love to see a remake of that game or a new entry like it!
Re: New Patent Seemingly Confirms Nvidia 4K AI Upscaling For Switch 2
So Paper Mario TTYD on Switch having 4K in the code might have some credibility!
Re: 'Nintendo Music' Adds Super Mario 64 Soundtrack, Here's Every Song Included
Super Mario 64 is a great game with a great OST, it took a lot longer than it should’ve to be added, but glad to have it now!
Re: Video: Here Are Felix's Top 5 Nintendo Switch Games Of 2024
For me, TTYD is the best Switch game this year (and my personal favorite Switch game of all time). I hope the next Paper Mario is even half as good!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (Christmas 2024 Edition)
Merry Christmas everyone! I’m not sure what I’ll play this weekend, but I played some Wario’s Woods recently and it’s a really fun puzzle game, so maybe I’ll play that!
Re: Sonic The Hedgehog Will Be Back For A Fourth Movie
If no Eggman then I will not be too interested
Re: Nintendo Switch Finally Surpasses PlayStation 2's Lifetime Sales In The US
Perhaps sony will add a few million to the US number to be above Switch?
Re: 'Switch 2' Is Projected To Be The "Clear Winner" In The Next Console Generation

Re: PSA: If You're Into Switch 2 'Leaks', It's The Wild West Out There Right Now
Personally I don't think Mario Kart is going to be the launch title and am therefore skeptical of this rumor. Doesn't seem very trustworthy to me.
Re: Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds Announced For Switch, Coming Soon
I wonder if Wreck it Ralph will be in this one
Re: Bandai Namco Unveils New Pac-Man Game, And It's Probably Not What You Expect
Metroid style Pac-Man with a bit of horror? At least something good happened at the game awards!
Re: 3D Print Of Rumoured 'Switch 2' Design Gives Us A Closer Look At OLED Size Comparison
I thought someone already 3D printed this before, and it looked pretty much identical to this
Re: New Code On Nintendo's Intellectual Property Notice Spawns More 'Switch 2' Speculation
No way the real leaked picture of Switch 2!

Re: Rumour: 'Switch 2' May Support Samsung's Upcoming MicroSD Cards For Higher Transfer Speeds
This seems like it’d be significantly faster than Switch, which is fine by me. I don’t really know how helpful this is if it just supports these SD cards, but I’m down for these really fast times!
Re: Donkey Kong Country OG Dev Says He Would Like To Work On Another DKC Game
Nice to see David Wise here, absolutely love his DKC tracks, and I hope if we get a new DKC game that he's making the music!
Re: 'Nintendo Music' Adds Another N64 Soundtrack, Here's Every Song Included
Wave Race 64 before Mario 64 or Mario Kart 64 🤔
Re: Nintendo Reveals Donkey Kong Country Returns HD's Opening Cutscene
I’m a huge fan of the DKC series, but I won’t be getting this. I could get the identical game for literally 1/4th of the price for 3DS, and I won’t have to wait until release date. Nintendo needs to spend time making a new DKC instead of selling this game for a 3rd time since Wii!
Re: Looks Like Fire Emblem & Paper Mario Dev Intelligent Systems Is Hiring
TTYD is awesome and the WarioWare games on Switch are also really good.
Hopefully we get a really good Paper Mario for Switch 2, with some of the team being these new recruits!
Re: Rumour: One Of Kirby's 3DS Titles Will Return Next Year, It's Claimed
Please Nintendo, if you want money…
Re: Rate Your Favourite Switch Games Of The Year 2024
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door is easily GOTY even though it’s a remake.
Re: Ubisoft Reportedly Discussing Buyout Options As Talks Of Going Private Continue
Nintendo should buy it and mainly just make Mario + Rabbids games and perhaps some Rayman as well! They need new leadership and direction, and I’m sure Nintendo would give them both of those things.
Re: Poll: Okay, It's Time To Ask The Obvious - Will We Get Donkey Kong 64 On NSO?
I hope we get it soon, I haven’t been able to play through it but there was this fun multiplayer side mode I played once.
Re: Square Enix Provides Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake Global Sales Update
This is like Pikmin where a huge portion of the sales come from Japan. This seems probably around 2/3 of the sales in Japan (I could be wrong though, since we only have physical sales from there)

Re: Nintendo Left Sony "Standing At The Altar" With SNES Disk Add-On, Says Former PlayStation Exec
I'm kind of glad this never happened, Sony is a pretty generic company and I wouldn't want that effecting the Nintendo games.
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's Game Boy Library With Another Classic
I just beat the first 2 on NSO, can't wait to dive into the 3rd one!
Re: Ubisoft Closes Two Studios And Will Reportedly Lay Off Hundreds Of Employees

Re: Poll: After Three Quiet Months, Will We Finally Get A Nintendo Direct In December?
No but I wouldn’t be mad if there was!
Re: Super Mario Land 2 Icons Now Available To Switch Online Subscribers
the more Wario icons the better, I really like this artwork of him!
Re: Nintendo Expands Switch Online's NES Library With Another Classic Next Week
Nintendo Music would be jealous of these quick NSO game releases 😆
