@Vriess I recently beat Odyssey and was kind of disappointed with it. I had no desire to collect all the moons and felt it was more of a chore than anything.
I decided to go through Mario 64 again and I was having such a blast with it that at some point I decided to collect all the stars. It ended up being more enjoyable than Odyssey and I know it won't be the last time I play Mario's first 3D outing.
This is my favourite game of all time. I was about 6 years old when I first played this with my older siblings. We would always go to my grandma's house because my aunt who was living there had an NES with this game.
@DarthFoxMcCloud I think Heartgold/Soulsilver are probably some of the BEST Pokémon games ever made, period. But I'd definitely play a Let's Go version of them, provided the Pokeball Plus was still functional."
I agree. Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver are my personal favourites and I would love to see a Let's Go remake of them.
Pre-ordered Let's Go Eevee for my son and me. He would always ask to play Pokemon Go when it first came out and he's never played any of the handheld games, so you can bet he's super excited for this. My wife is even interested in giving it a try and she's never played a Pokemon game before either.
I hope that this sells well enough that they make a Gold and Silver version, AFTER next year's gen 8, of course.
@YoshiAngemon I've never met another person who's even heard of King's Knight!
I remember my siblings and I couldn't even come close to beating that game when we were younger. Fast forward to the present and I still can only get about as far as I did way back then.
I hate buying games brand new because they're so expensive, and it doesn't help that lots of games appear to have so little content. Thankfully EB Games has that "Trade 3 Get It Free" promotion going on or who knows when I would have picked this up.
However, I then remembered that the “ette” suffix is used when you're referring to the female version of something such as bachelorette (bachelor) and brunette (brunet). Since this is a female version of Bowser, it sort of makes sense to call her Bowsette. Although, who knows if that's what the creator had in mind?
"Fifth, PS5 will be Stomped Very Hard by Switch 2.0 & Xbox Scarlett and after Sony made a bad decision by Not allowed Cross Play, they will get some Bad Karma."
This is the funniest thing I'll read today.
I like Nintendo but let's be honest, they have never stomped Sony when it comes to home consoles (except the fluke that is the Wii).
@SuperCharlie78 "Oh Nintendo, I love you so much, but sometimes I think you really deserve to fail hard"
I feel the same way. They have had over a decade of seeing what the competition has done with their online and still can't get it right. All because they want to be as unique as possible, even if it means coming up with convoluted solutions to simple problems.
Come on, the majority here are talking as if it's the end of the year and production has come to an end. This thing hasn't even been released yet.
Sure, this whole pre-order thing was a bit of a debacle, but it isn't indicative of how many systems will be available throughout the remainder of 2017.
I'm a pretty competitive CoD (Black Ops series) player. While I have to agree that it isn't entirely a huge loss that this won't be coming to the Switch, I don't understand all the hate people have for the CoD games. If you don't like it, that's fine, but to call it trash is so unnecessary.
Anyway, I can't see any serious CoD player picking this up for Switch over the other PS4/XBox.
@Josaku I agree with you. I never had the chance to play Wind Waker on the GameCube but all my friends did and throughout the years they would talk about how great the game was. I finally got to play it on the Wii U and I was extremely underwhelmed. I wish it was a physical copy that was included with the system instead of a digital code because now I'm stuck with it.
@HawkeyeWii
Zelda fans are probably split about 50/50 for Skyward Sword. I for one am glad that I received the game as a gift instead of wasting my own money on the game.
@CrazyMetroid Most people will tell you that he deserves the spot because:
1. Donkey Kong needs more representatives 2. King K Rool would be an excellent addition to the heavyweight characters 3. He has lots of potential for his moveset
I personally voted for him, myself, though I would love to see Banjo and Kazooie as well.
Like others have said, I too am willing to bet that we'll be getting Wolf back. Then it's either Snake or Ice Climbers and then the winner of the Fighter Ballot, which I believe will be King K Rool. A lot of people getting their hopes up for other characters but this is probably the most realistic possibility.

To all the people who are complaining about Cloud only having minor appearances on a Nintendo console:
The game is called Super Smash Bros., not Nintendo All-Stars. Even the Smash ballot encouraged people to vote for ANY character.
