Dang. Poor Final Fantasy XVI is already out of the Top 40, while stuff such as Forspoken and the Saints Row Reboot, or much older games like Hogwarts Legacy, Animal Crossing and Red Dead Redemption 2 are still in.
This is how it happened. This is how Final Fantasy died.
Pikmin 4 remains in the Top 10. Awesome! Such is the Power of Dandori!
Huh. Pokémon sure knows their marketing. No doubt this will convince MANY people to buy the DLC... and the base game for those who haven't purchased it yet.
It's an amazing movie, one of my favorites ever. Pretty interesting how they actually expanded on the characters' backstories, mainly revealing Mario & Luigi's families and even giving Peach a backstory finally explaining why a human woman rules over a land of mushroom people. Bowser managed to strike a balance between funny/entertaining and scary/intimidating.
Players who buy the Pass get also food and drink tickets to use in-game, I think, so there's that. I never played Splatoon 1, so watching the Squid Sisters perform during Splatfests will be awesome.
Agree that if stores had exclusive gear in Inkopolis it'd be a neat extra, though.
@uptownsoul Games like Bayonetta are niche when compared to older, more mainstream series such as Devil May Cry, God of War and the like. One million in a few months is quite a lot for it.
@rjejr I doubt they have the same sales expectations for Bayonetta Origins as they had for B3. BO seems more like a spinoff than an actual major installment.
This is freaking art. Looking forward to April 2023.
A nice (and kind of creepy) detail is that Bowser is apparently looking not only at Mario, but also at Peach. Makes me wonder how they'll adapt his villainous crush on her, assuming they do.
@Acein210 And there came a day, a day unlike any other, when Gaming's mightiest heroes and heroines found themselves united against a common threat. On that day, the Super Smashers were born—to fight the foes no single Gaming hero could withstand!
Wonder if they'll reveal this in a future Direct...?!
About freaking time they brought them back. Why did they even make them a limited time offer in the North American eShops in the first place? They've been a thing in Japan since years ago as far as I know.
Hope that Tears Of The Kingdom will be buyable with vouchers. May probably get Bayonetta Origins with one of these.

Re: UK Charts: PS5 Bundles Help Keep Lego Star Wars At The Top Of The Pile
@Serpenterror Dang, I'm so jaded regarding Final Fantasy I can't disagree much with you.
Poor Final Fantasy. The old days were great. Now... well, it could be better.
Re: Random: Zelda: Ocarina Of Time Very Nearly Had Its Own Hobbit Character
@LXP8 It's been so long since I played Wind Waker I don't know if you're joking or not.
@AstroTheGamosian Awesome. Good observation. Best of luck in your studies and in your future projects.
Re: Random: Zelda: Ocarina Of Time Very Nearly Had Its Own Hobbit Character
@AstroTheGamosian Huh. Pretty awesome analysis. Great job! ...But what about the Rito? Would they also be an equivalent for a TLotR race?

Re: Team Money Claims Victory In Splatoon 3's Priorities-Themed Splatfest
We've got to have... MONEY!
Awesome Splatfest all, great matches. Got my first 100X Victory in Splatoon 3.
Just hope the next Splatfest is more balanced regarding choices. Frye/Fame got only around 09% of votes.
Re: New Pokémon Scarlet & Violet DLC Trailer Reveals Past-Gen Starters & Much More
Huh. Pokémon sure knows their marketing. No doubt this will convince MANY people to buy the DLC... and the base game for those who haven't purchased it yet.
Awesome, mah boi Inteleon is back.
Re: Super Mario Bros. Live-Action Movie Getting 4K Anniversary Screening (Japan)
Trust the Fungus!
The movie has a certain charm to it. The ice slide and Bob-Omb scenes are awesome.
Re: Reminder: Splatoon 3's Priorities-Themed Splatfest Kicks Off This Weekend
We've got to have... MONEY!
Re: Japanese Charts: Pikmin 4 Retains Its Crown For The Third Week In A Row
Such is the Power of Nintendo, Pikmin and Dandori!
Awesome to see Pikmin finally earning the recognition it deserves.
Re: Natsume's NES Side-Scroller Shadow Of The Ninja Is Getting A Remake On Switch
Wowsers. It looks pretty promising.
Re: UK Charts: The Force Is Strong This Week As LEGO Star Wars Returns To The Top Spot
This is how it happened. This is how Final Fantasy died.
Dang, seeing it at #34 already, being beaten by much older games and even stuff like Forspoken and Saints Row Reboot is kind of sad.
Re: Mortal Kombat 1 Reveals Reptile & Multiple Other Fighters At EVO 2023
Awesome. Nice to see so many Klassic Kombatants return.
Re: The Super Mario Bros. Movie Pulled In Over 168 Million Viewers At The Box Office, Says Nintendo
Awesome. Such is the Power of Nintendo and Mario!
I can attest to that. I watched the movie five times on cinema, twice on release week. I liked it that much.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo Is Targeting A 2024 Release For The Switch Successor
Another day, another Super Switch rumor. Still, interesting. We'll see where does this lead us.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Character Designer Celebrates 1st Anniversary With Special Artwork
@Cheez I see. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
Re: Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Character Designer Celebrates 1st Anniversary With Special Artwork
Awesome. One day I'll play it. Truth is, I already have it physical, but first I'm playing XC1DE, then the Torna Expansion (already finished 2).
Looking forward to the day I can finally play XC3. It'll be awesome.
Re: Japanese Charts: Pikmin 4 Posts An Out Of This World Debut, Knocking Zelda From The Top Spot
Awesome! Such is the Power of Pikmin and Dandori!
Glad to see the game is selling well. Miyamoto's wish came true.
Re: New Splatoon 3 Splatfest Kicks Off Next Month
Awesome! Looking forward to it.
Re: Minnie Mouse Joins Disney Speedstorm As A Bonus Racer In Season 3
Interesting. May try it when it goes Free To Play... although guess I'll just return to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe even if I do try Speed Storm.
Re: Poll: Were You Able To Get The New Super Smash Bros. Ultimate amiibo?
Got really lucky, could preorder one at normal price, picked them up recently. Awesome.
Re: Takaya Imamura: F-Zero Hasn't Been Revived Because Mario Kart Is Nintendo's "Most Popular Racing Game"
Yeah, pretty much what we expected. Mario Kart already sells bazillion copies, no need for F-ZERO from a business point of view.
Sigh...
Re: Nintendo And Illumination Thank Fans For Supporting The Super Mario Bros. Movie
It's an amazing movie, one of my favorites ever. Pretty interesting how they actually expanded on the characters' backstories, mainly revealing Mario & Luigi's families and even giving Peach a backstory finally explaining why a human woman rules over a land of mushroom people. Bowser managed to strike a balance between funny/entertaining and scary/intimidating.
Here's looking forward to future Nintendo movies.
Re: Princess Peach Will Star In Her Own Game On Switch In 2024
Fascinating. Looking forward to it. About time Peach had another starring role. Wonder if other Mario characters will show up.
Re: UK Charts: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Reclaims The Top Spot
Awesome. Tears Of The Kingdom is a masterpiece, well deserved sales.
Re: Splatoon 3 Devs Tease "New And Different" Gameplay In Wave 2 DLC
Looking forward to it.
Don't get cooked, stay Off The Hook!
Re: Mario Movie Surpasses Disney's Animated Hit Frozen At The Box Office
Awesome. Such is the Power of Mario!
Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom Is Japan's 7th Biggest Game Launch Of All Time
Awesome. Well deserved, amazing game. Such is the Power of Zelda!
Re: The New Zelda Game Is Apparently Running On The Same Nintendo Engine As Splatoon 3
Link and Zelda better watch out, the Deep Cut idols could show up to cause a ruckus...
Re: UK Charts: Mario Kart And Odyssey Keeps Nintendo In The Top Ten
Just a few more days... the wait will end soon.
Re: Splatoon 3's Zelda-Themed Splatfest Won By Team Power
Great job, Team Power. You were excellent teammates. Respect to Teams Wisdom and Courage too, though. They had strong players too.
Re: Random: Star Wars Jedi: Survivor Contains A Neat Super Metroid Reference
I can't wait for the part when an ostrich like creature teaches Cal how to Shinespark.
LOL, neat reference. Such is the influence of Metroid and Nintendo!
Re: Miyamoto Thinks Mario Movie's Critical Reception Contributed To The "Buzz"
Such is the Power of Mario and Miyamoto!
Re: Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom's Final Pre-Launch Trailer Is Absolutely Stunning
Just one word: Legendary. They saved a lot of things to hype us all as release approaches.
Re: Poll: What Did You Make Of Zelda: Tears Of The Kingdom's Final Trailer?
Considering getting digital day one. Yes, I'm that hyped.
Re: Splatoon 3 Reveals Expansion Pass Wave 1 Launches Later This Month
Players who buy the Pass get also food and drink tickets to use in-game, I think, so there's that. I never played Splatoon 1, so watching the Squid Sisters perform during Splatfests will be awesome.
Agree that if stores had exclusive gear in Inkopolis it'd be a neat extra, though.
Re: Poll: Was That A Super Show Cameo In The Latest Mario Movie Trailer?
Didn't catch it the first time. It's definitely her, the voice is too similar to be a coincidence. Awesome Easter egg.
Re: Super Mario Bros. Movie Plumbing Commercial & Website Launched
Nintendo has acknowledged the Super Show... which means it is now canonically part of the Mario Multiverse. Awesome!
Re: Bayonetta 3 Has Sold Over 1 Million Units Since Launch

Re: Bayonetta 3 Has Sold Over 1 Million Units Since Launch
Awesome. Congratulations to the Bayonetta developers.
As long as there's music, she'll keep on dancing!

Re: Random: Japan's 'Licca-chan' Doll Range Is Getting An Adorable Super Mario Model
Mario, have you been playing with the Super Crown? Just give it back to either Toadette or Bowser.
I do remember Licca-chan from an anime that was broadcasted here in Mexico for a while. Awesome.
Re: Nintendo Switch Online Game Vouchers Might Be Returning To North America
Wonder if they'll reveal this in a future Direct...?!
About freaking time they brought them back. Why did they even make them a limited time offer in the North American eShops in the first place? They've been a thing in Japan since years ago as far as I know.

Re: Random: These Upcoming 'Mario-Themed' Pizzas Are Little To Do With Nintendo's Prize Plumber
@NatiaAdamo Woo. Awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Re: Random: These Upcoming 'Mario-Themed' Pizzas Are Little To Do With Nintendo's Prize Plumber
Hm. What about Spaghetti? Has any food company prepared Mario themed Spaghetti?
Re: Random: Check Out How Bayonetta 3's Cheshire Demon Was Brought To Life
Awesome. Wonder what reveals will be shown regarding Cheshire in Bayonetta Origins.
Re: Japanese Charts: Fire Emblem Engage Knocks Pokémon Off The Top Spot
Awesome. Such is the Power of Fire Emblem!
Re: Vanillaware President Really Wants A 'Muramasa' Port But Admits "There Are Problems"
This and Odin Sphere are the Vanillaware games most people want brought to modern consoles, I'm sure. It'd be awesome.
Re: Dead Space's Isaac Clarke Blasts Into Fortnite
Hope the DS Remake is successful enough.
