It's cool and all but, like, not enjoyable to actually use seriously. I struggled with the Game Boy Micro if I'm honest.

Unrelated: the presenter of this video is cute. <3

This just convinced me to buy the handheld and the entire collection.

Oh my God I would LOVE THIS. Please release this outside of Japan, HORI!!!

On the pre-order page: “ Note: due to Brexit complications there will be no pre-order coin offered with this title.”

What exactly complicates this? Weird.

Now the limited edition is less desirable.

My Switch's wifi signal is diabolical. Two bars when everything else is 4 or 5.

A pointless exercise really. It only hurts Nintendo to remove this as I bet it's really popular still.

Wasn't this on 3DS too? And for a considerable amount less.

I think I quite liked its but not £54 liked it. On the Wishlist waiting for a sale then.

It looks stunning but very simple in the gameplay.

Even the clasps are magnetic? The videos suggest so. I would worry that if I dropped this bag the the magnets could be pulled apart by force and then everything will come flying out where as a zip at least is a physically bound together structure.

Nintendo Life being Nintendo Life with the clickbait.

So let's be clear: The games are not being wiped from existence. If you bought them in physical format you will always have them.

It was announced before they were released that they would be discontinued at the end of March. People that want the game have had plenty of time to buy. There have certainly been no stock shortages that I've seen reported.

If you downloaded them they will always be on your Switch - make sure you keep them on an SD card otherwise long after the Switch is discontinued you may no longer be able to re-download them. This is not an issue unique to Nintendo Switch. You make that choice when you buy digital only. It is unreasonable to expect a any company to support an online infrastructure when the cost becomes greater than the return.

Do we know if Super Mario 35 will work after it's no longer available to download?

I'd also point out that Super Mario 35 was free to those with Nintendo Switch Online. Nintendo is under no obligation to support it forever.

But I don't get the point of them taking them off the online store. Super Mario 35 is a good way to get people interested in Nintendo Switch Online as its fun. Mario 3D All Stars is surely easy money for Nintendo with people still buying Nintendo Switches by the bucket load. Sure, don't produce the p
physical version anymore, but removing the digital one? Just weird business practices. All physical games eventually have their production discontinued.

It’s not that I don’t like chibi art styles but the graphics on this just look bad. Like some freeware harvest moon game on iOS from about four or five years ago. Legends was also terrible. I’m sorry, it might sounds extreme but I think it’s shameful.

I played it to 100% on my Wii U but I sold that all while ago. I've got a lovely shiny new Mario red Switch and the physical game to play today. Cannot wait!

They very obvious Sonic 2 on the MegaDrive homage with the music and the addition of tales. I truly hope they wait for Sonic 3 before we get Knuckles!

I was like: "this sounds no different"

And then I put my earphones in.

I mean, they've surely already cast the replacement?

@GannonBanned Sorry bad choice of words. I meant new Switch colour (red) which I’m going to get.

I think it depends if BotW 2 is going to be ready for Christmas. If it isn't then the new version of the Switch will be pushed back. I also wouldn't be surprised if Metroid Prime 4 is a key factor in new Switch hardware as well.

Hmmm, it's cheap to buy on Amazon right now. If it wasn't for Mario 3D World and the new Switch, I'd definitely be interested. Dammit.

I'm willing to bet we'll be getting the Switch Pro for Christmas. Or at least an announcement for whenever BotW 2 is released.

I know it's probably my old eyes, but I read the other day that a game I was playing was 720p docked and it surprised me because I thought it looked gorgeous. Lol.

I'm very excited for this and the red Switch.

This is a bit dramatic I think. It's commonly known that Nintendo is quite a cash rich company and the Wii U underperforming wouldn't have depleted anywhere near that. With Nintendo putting all its eggs in one basket with the Switch, I think it was a pretty safe bet that it would sell better than the Wii U as well.

I downloaded it and tried it. It was ... OK. The story was good and delivered in a fun way I've not really seen before in a game. The world was quite nice looking and seemed a little busier than Hyrule so that was good. The water is terrible. The climbing is not as good as BotW. The controls are overly complicated and not at all intuitive. I kept forgetting the countless number of combinations by the time any enemy of significance was on screen. Flying felt nice and so did the bow and arrow (the one that you can fly through those hoops to get the bonus chest was awesome!).

I'm definitely interested in a demo.

I still need to play through the first Revelations games. I bought them and will eventually.

Love Mike Choi. I would totally buy something like from Nintendo though Mike shows that this particular method does not work very well!

Is it just me or is Super Back to the Future Part II trying really hard to be Sonic the Hedgehog?

I tried this. It was beautiful. And creepy.

I find it funny that the the bundle with Super Mario 3D world is actually a penny more expensive than ordering it all separately because they put some joy-con stick covers in the mix.

I've had this pre-ordered I think since August. I keep getting notifications from Amazon that the dates changing.

So the way you can tell is the texture on the moustache and the awful colouring around the eyes? Otherwise it's a direct copy.

What I find hilarious about this is that Nintendo (and other companies that have also done this) don't have a local server with all their images on. They just go on Google images and go, 'yeah I'll use that one' and not even care where it comes from. I guess it's their copyright really so there's not much artist can do I'd imagine.

It smarts a little though when you consider Nintendo take down all the fan created games and then go 'we'll take that and use it on our website thank you very much'.

Using the dock as a way to boost the performance so it can to 4K is a no brainer, surely?

A series I would love to see come to Switch.

I would love Yakuza on Switch. If we could just have the two ports that were on Wii U I’d certainly buy them.

I love this series and hope this one makes it onto Switch. 4 seemed a little rushed in some parts though.

I saw the photos of this the other day and it looks so tightly packed in which is not great, currently. Still, I'm excited to see what this place looks like in a close up perspective.

@eltomo Ha ha, good job!

Yeah. I have a little dabble with fraction shares for "fun" and I made 40p on Nintendo this last week. Ha!

Sounds like an absolute scam.

@Iggy-Koopa Such a strange thing for Quantic Dreams to be funding this then? Maybe they're branching out.

Quantic Dreams? As in Quantic Dreams that made Heavy Rain, Detroit and Fahrenheit? OK wow. That's surprising! It looks OK. Looked a bit Last Guardian in places with those giant monsters.

This'll be what Nintendo reveal at the Geoff Keighley Awards, er, I mean the Game Awards. There'll be at least one Fortnite character in Smash too. And please God let the Trilogy HD remasters finally come out.

I'm going to hold out in the hope of a Breath of the Wild 2 themed console.

It's supposed to stand out. It looks fine.

@VenomousAlbino Oh do they? The colour ones are only from Picross S5 or do they have those in any of the others?

I think these Picross S games are really sterile feel. They have no personality to them. I'm still on Picross S 1 and I don't think I'll bother with any others. I remember when they images you'd uncover would animate. The 3D version (first, not second) also had a good feel about it. Shame these don't recreate that magic.

@reporterdavid yep

So they've reinstated the analogue FLUDD control? That's great! Might have to hunt down the controller now.

Mine is currently in Royal Mail limbo. Was supposed to be here on Friday. The pain !!!

No sound is a deal breaker sadly. The lag you get with bluetooth those bluetooth dongles is too much of an annoyance. Otherwise I think this looks actually would be great.

Doesn't look like mine is going to arrive until tomorrow. Nintendo really missed a trick by not making this a connected device that can download additional Game & Watch games. Imagine if you had a Nintendo Online subscription and could download old single screen Game & Watch titles. Then next year Nintendo release a dual screen version.
