Fantastic game. I wonder if they will announce a new list of upcoming games after pokemon snap or if we will go back to not knowing if or when we get new games

I hope we get diddy kong racing and donkey kong 64! Banjo tooie as well, though I think it's less likely even though we got banjo kazooie.

Other than the rare stuff what else is there? Wave race? Pilot wings? Smash bros? (that'd be great with online).

Maybe they'll just go straight to game boy after pokemon snap since there aren't many n64 games left. Though I guess they could squeeze it out until the end of october to keep people interested in the expansion subscription and announce game boy before that expires

@RupeeClock well that would be the twist... it's clearly meant to invoke Star Wars. They are invaders regardless of where they come from. The name still fits

@RupeeClock what about the pig army? The game literally starts with a UFO...

Can someone please clarify if local multiplayer means split screen multiplayer? Because local multiplayer in Nintendo terms usually means when you connect to another console

Alex had written his review and he hit publish. He was excited to publish this one. It didn't take long for comments to be written and Alex would hastily hit refresh so he could give them a read. At first Alex was delighted. People would bask in the glory of his well written piece. They would marvel at his writing ability. He then started to read...

It wasn't long before he began to wonder... did people actually read his review? Did they just want to talk about the game? What did "interesting" mean... did people even understand?

He stood up and he screamed... no... wait, you're not meant to do that, what are you doing? This isn't in the script... Alex, what are you doing? This just won't wor--

The comment seemed to end abruptly. The reader laughed but then realised... the comment hadn't actually ended. But now... it had.

@Snatcher I was just referring to the recent subscriber loss and password sharing controversy. Netflix aren't in a good place at the moment.

Edit: controversy referring to public opinion on their move to crack down on password sharing

@Not_Soos I categorically disagree that netflix contributed to the success of the wii...

@Bunkerneath I don't have any other form of tablet so it would be good for me

@Snatcher surprised people still care about netflix. Where's Disney+?

This is great, I get the impression more expansion DLCs are going to be added over time. Breath of the Wild probably. Basically anything that was called "expansion pass" by Nintendo. As opposed to smash bros fighters passes which probably won't get included

The issue is they've labelled DLC alongside editions of the game. In reality there are just two editions, two normal DLC packs and a pre order DLC pack. One version is without the two normal DLC packs and one is with. And the pre order DLC is exactly that.

If you pre order the deluxe edition you get everything.

@Not_Soos having played Isaac for thousands of hours I don't think it has anything to do with abortion. It's about battling inner demons, grief, abuse and neglect. I hope people don't mind me spoiling the story but essentially the father leaves the mother and Isaac reminds her of him so she neglects him. And then he battles with himself because he feels responsible.

Isaac does push things to the limits and deal with a lot of serious issues but in the end it's just a piece of art and a story. It's fictional.

There are religious elements but it doesn't contradict good vs evil. The bible is seen as a good item, the bosses are satan. God is nowhere in the game beyond a brief mention in the intro.

I'd take bigger issue with games like Bayonetta or Assassin's Creed than I would Binding of Isaac

Can I just say how much I appreciate this new writer, Alana Hagues

Atomicrops is another

Wouldn't mind a Marvel collection at some point:

X-Men: Children of the Atom
Marvel Super Heroes
X-Men vs. Street Fighter
Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter
Marvel vs. Capcom: Clash of Super Heroes
Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes

I feel like A Boy and His Blob is too much of a reimagining to be considered a remake or remaster. It's more like a reboot sequel. Personally I'd take that off the list and replace it with Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania. Regardless of how Monkey Target has been butchered

Edit: or maybe Destroy All Humans?

So it's kinda like real gun recoil?

I guess killing younglings in the jedi temple is an oversight and will be patched then

@Azuris Tales was SOO much better than Escape though.

@victordamazio the trailer literally has Murray so not sure what the plan is but I imagine there will be a lot of meta jokes as per usual

@WeLiveInASociety it got VERY off topic. Happy the mods stepped in.

Among Us has an aprils fools where everyone is a horse

I mean they wouldn't do maintenance for extremely random tat would they? Maybe Mario RPG? Maybe some actual third party games? (Capcom/Konami)

@CharlieGirl 100%! When I tell people I like the new Mickey Mouse cartoons they likely assume I mean some ugly CGI garbage. They're fantasticc

@WhiteTrashGuy they actually added that too!

Folders, more icons and more things to do with my nintendo points! Not to mention bluetooth headphones and customisable controls. They've actually been listening to feedback! Custom themes next?

I voted Paris Promenade because it made me feel like I was in Disneyland

Edit: not to mention the unique reverse mechanic

As others have said, Lego Marvel 2 is absolutely awful and it's certainly not better than Lego DC. And this is coming from a Marvel fan

Pretty sure he's Spider-Man

@imagazelle thanks! It made sense but then I wasn't sure if he was maybe in the base game

Am I being dumb or... where is the mandalorian himself?

Uhh... guys... you're not meant to get spotted by the EMMI. Of course there's no stealth when he's already up in your ass

@JasmineDragon the film was directed by the art director on nightmare before christmas.

Finishing the game to me is doing the four divine beasts, beating ganon and doing all the shrines. Completing it would be to upgrade all your armour sets, get all the koroks and do the kilton monster medals (edit: also completing the map, there are some locations which don't even have korok seeds). I've actually done all the koroks and kilton but not the armour sets on my OG file, and probably never will.

When I replayed it in master mode during the pandemic I "finished" the game by these rules. Can't remember if I did the trial of the sword in master mode? Might have done... but definitely got the master cycle. In the end it's up to you what you consider done. You could even challenge yourself to open every single chest. Though some are glitched unfortunately

Kind of a broken poll because it assumes everyone bought a switch five years ago... a HECK of a lot of switches sold during the pandemic. So of course they are still going strong

@ModdedInkling I give your comment a 3/10

Okay... well this is literally just publicity then

@Mgalens the games are stored in the app. They're not running off the cloud. Whenever that happens in like ten years or whatever they could just permanently unlock them. The service will likely carry over to the next console too. Plus you can always buy the old games on the old consoles

@echoplex Having to buy the arcade archives Nintendo games individually was the worst. I'm so glad they're taking the subscription approach now. So if they say no to individual ports for their legacy consoles I'm glad! I know they'll release them somehow.

I don't think Mario 3D All Stars was limited just because of Mario 64. Let's hope they add gamecube games in the same way.

@Troll_Decimator this is my point also. And have they worked on a gamecube game before?

@TheRealMW I'm not sh***ing on Nightdive. I'm just saying I understand why Nintendo want to do it their way. My point about the price is that if Nintendo charged that much they wouldn't get away with it. You can defend Nightdive but that wasn't at all my point. I just don't know why everyone is like "bad Nintendo, they should partner with Nightdive". I could do without all the fancy extras. Nintendo's games were great as they were

@Richnj those are N64 games. I asked about the Gamecube

Shadow Man is also £16, N64 games on the Wii U were half that price!

Have Nightdive actually had any experience with gamecube ports? Because I can see why Nintendo aren't interested in them making N64 ports (they're already doing that themselves). I don't know why everything has to be written so as to make Nintendo seem like the bad guys. Nightdive are charging £15 for Turok alone! I'm not paying £15 each for N64 games when Nintendo will make them part of their online service. If they're shy about gamecube it means those games are eventually on the horizon too.

@Coalescence it might be more to do with Itoi rather than the other stuff. Or even due to Ape Inc as Pokemon games also tend to have a hard time appearing on virtual console. Nintendo don't solely own the rights so there are some legalities involved. About who gets paid and how they get paid etc.

Take Futurama's Bender for example, the voice actor not returning for the new Futurama over money disagreements. Think of that situation but if the voice actor actually owned the character. Itoi owns these characters which is why you see his copyright in Smash Bros. I use Bender as an example because the voice actor obviously does want to return and he does want people to hear his voice but they need to come to an agreement first which can take a while.

Not saying it's Itoi's fault but he owns it so he asks for a certain amount. And it's whether Nintendo is willing to pay. Eventually they come to an agreement. Same reason we don't have Super Mario RPG yet.

It's a shame this stuff isn't simpler really but it's better to sort this stuff out in advance rather than Nintendo release it and then get sued. Which MAYBE they could do. But then it's a whole legal battle about ownership and general unpleasantry

I'd like to see this and also WarioWare Twisted which never actually got a European release! It will be a good day when we get game boy games. They could easily put OG game boy on the regular service and GBA on the expansion. I just hope we don't have to wait two more years...
