Whoa this is surprising! Definitely will pick this up day one. Waiting on news for the pinball game and also hope Burst Re:Newal gets announced for the switch as well.
The stages looked super creative and that music was so good. Excited to see what they have in store as the lore looks super interesting. between this and X rank, I'm putting at least another 100 into the game xD.
Preordering this and definitely playing online tournaments. Love Mario Sports titles cause of the unique twists / items that shake up the gameplay. The whole trick shot meter mechanic has me totally on board.
I'm glad to see it doing well. I play this game almost daily and keep up to date with updates. Looking forward to seeing what that new area on map they added turns out to be.
I've been logging in daily for a while just playing the drop minigame with free log in bonuses. I feel like the game would've lasted longer if you didn't have to know people irl and could interact with the entire community. Would've also been nice for it to have some sort of connectivity with the switch online app or adding clothes to your miis on the switch for future games.
Splatoon 2 was probably my favorite game from this year. Xenoblade and Mario are tied for 2nd, then BOTW for 3rd (Sonic Mania as honorable mention). This was an amazing start to this console and I can't wait to see what 2018 has in store for Switch owners.
I hope they bring together the best parts of BOTW and past games. I don't mind the game being mostly open world, but I'd like some sort of progression and a better story. Make it so you can explore a lot, but some areas are possibly blocked till you get some classic items from dungeons again. They could make those returning items / weapons be ancient runes if they go for a similar setting.
I really love Pyra's design and think she looks super cool especially in cutscenes (always did like long scarves that look like that xD). Also liking how all the characters I met so far are filled with tons of personality. This game is amazing and I can't wait to get further into it.
It came with the Switch bundle I ordered back in April, so I'll get to it eventually. The motor bike and new divine beast / shrines sound fun, but 1 hit kills sounds horrible. In no rush as I'm focused on ranking up in splatoon 2 and finishing Xenoblade 2 though.
Never played a Bayonetta game before, so this didn't really excite me much. Nice for the fans of the series though. Might have to give the series a try now that it's portable.
A cave kingdom would be cool. They could also make a Sarasaland kingdom or have a kingdom that works similar to galaxy physics. So many things they could do, so I'm definitely hoping for a sequel (DLC is fine as well). They could even make new playable characters in an Odyssey DLC.
I never beat any of the classic games back on the GameCube collection or tried 9 and 10, so this is an amazing chance to relive the past. Super hype about the X games as I used to play those a ton. MM11 is also looking nice. All I need now is a battle network collection lol.
hope the badges make it easier to get gold as it looked like you get money for getting them. Also wondering what Reggie was hinting at before the event started.
Probably gonna end up picking up Touhou. Might wait though as I want both FE Warriors and Odyssey later this month lol. Hopefully there's a good holiday sale so I can pick up One Piece and Touhou together.

Re: Talking Point: Nintendo Life's Favourite Games From Switch's First Year
Close between Splat 2 and Xenoblade 2 for me. Loved both game so much. Odyssey would be 3rd.

Definite buy from me. Hope we get a port of 4 in the future if this sells well.
Re: The Luna Blaster Neo Will Explode Onto The Splatoon 2 Scene This Weekend

Re: Soon You'll Be Able To Give Your Switch A Whopping 512GB Of Extra Storage
I only just upgraded from a 128gb to a 200gb card 2 months ago and don't think I'll be needing a 512gb card anytime soon hopefully.
Re: The .52 Gal Deco is Blasting Its Way To Splatoon 2 This Weekend

Re: Nintendo Download: 18th January (North America)
Guess I'll be playing the new xenoblade 2 quests.
Re: Nintendo Download: 11th January (North America)
Gonna try out DQ Builders and most likely get the Pokken DLC.
Re: A Free Update Is Coming to Super Mario Odyssey Next Month
I'll try it out, but probably won't get much into it. Hoping there's some reward for climbing the ranks. New costumes are always nice as well.
Re: New Battle Pack DLC is Coming to Pokkén Tournament DX Featuring New Characters
A DX game got DLC, wonder if it means Mario Kart 8 Deluxe might get some new tracks or characters later on.
Re: Mario Tennis Aces Brings A GBA-Style Story Mode To Switch
Story mode has me interested. Definitely going to give this a try as I did like the 3DS Mario tennis game.
Re: Feature: The 2017 Nintendo Life Game of the Year Awards

Re: Nintendo Download: 28th December (North America)

Day 1 buy. Still waiting on some Senran Kagura (main series) or Neptunia ports.
Re: Poll: Surprise! A New Zelda Is In Development, But What Do You Want From It?
I hope they bring together the best parts of BOTW and past games. I don't mind the game being mostly open world, but I'd like some sort of progression and a better story.

Re: Fire Emblem Heroes Gets Into the Festive Spirit With Daft Outfits
Gonna have to summon for that Tharja. Any others would be a bonus.
Re: Take A Look Behind The Scenes Of Xenoblade Chronicles 2's Character Design
I really love Pyra's design and think she looks super cool especially in cutscenes (always did like long scarves that look like that xD). Also liking how all the characters I met so far are filled with tons of personality. This game is amazing and I can't wait to get further into it.
Re: Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection Rumbles Onto Switch May 2018
All these games + online support. Definite buy, but I may wait a bit as I got USF2 the final challengers earlier this year.
Re: Feature: Five Reasons You Should Play Zelda: Breath of the Wild's DLC Pack 2
It came with the Switch bundle I ordered back in April, so I'll get to it eventually. The motor bike and new divine beast / shrines sound fun, but 1 hit kills sounds horrible. In no rush as I'm focused on ranking up in splatoon 2 and finishing Xenoblade 2 though.
Re: Bayonetta 3 is In Development and is a Switch Exclusive
Never played a Bayonetta game before, so this didn't really excite me much. Nice for the fans of the series though. Might have to give the series a try now that it's portable.
Re: Zelda: Breath of the Wild Champions' Ballad DLC Goes Live 'Tonight'
Link really has some horse power now doesn't he?
Re: Soapbox: A Super Mario Odyssey Sequel or DLC is All But Guaranteed
A cave kingdom would be cool. They could also make a Sarasaland kingdom or have a kingdom that works similar to galaxy physics. So many things they could do, so I'm definitely hoping for a sequel (DLC is fine as well). They could even make new playable characters in an Odyssey DLC.
Re: Poll: Capcom is Finally Bringing Mega Man Back - Are You Excited?
I never beat any of the classic games back on the GameCube collection or tried 9 and 10, so this is an amazing chance to relive the past. Super hype about the X games as I used to play those a ton. MM11 is also looking nice. All I need now is a battle network collection lol.

One of my favorites from the 1st game (Saltspray Rig being my fav). Hope I find time in between Odyssey sessions xD
Re: Fire Emblem Warriors Makes Top 20 UK Chart Debut, But Can't Pass Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
If this game launched at a different time it might've done better, due to people saving money for Odyssey the following week.
Re: Nintendo Download: 19th October (North America)
FE Warriors and Season Pass for me. Super hyped for this game.
Re: Team Vampire Triumphs in Latest Splatoon 2 Splatfest
First time I've been on winning side in Splat 2! Ah Ah Ah!

Re: Sega Confirms Sonic Forces Is 720p, 30fps On Nintendo Switch

Re: ARMS Version 3.2 Trailer Shows Off 'Badge Stash' Achievements and Mysterious New Character

Re: Feature: The Biggest Nintendo Switch Retail Games of 2017 - Fall / Winter Edition
Odyssey, XC2, and FE Warriors for me. If there was 4 I'd also throw in Sonic Forces.
Re: Nintendo Download: 5th October (North America)
Probably gonna end up picking up Touhou. Might wait though as I want both FE Warriors and Odyssey later this month lol. Hopefully there's a good holiday sale so I can pick up One Piece and Touhou together.
