Eternal Darkness, calling it now!!!

But this is actually probably the star fox movie. I wish they would do a Luigi's Mansion movie for Halloween! That would be cool.

This is wild, I just had a guy that has never talked videogames with before tell me yesterday I should buy this game. He thinks it is the best in the series. Then today this article. I think I'll still go with Pragmata first.

I just realized I bought this day one, and never opened the box! I still have that and Guard in the original double pack. I always planned to play it, and then got distracted. Just like I have the starfox edition of Starlink and never opened it too. So apparently I am a huge fan of Starfox, just not enough to actually play the games. haha but at least I buy them (and his shirts)

I'm not a marketing genius, but if you know you're going to delist, and never done a sale, shouldn't you drop the price to like $2.99 and try to get as many people give a go as possible? If 100 people would still be interested at $19.99, or 100,000 at $2.99, wouldn't it make sense.

Of course I guess only they know what the interest actually is (% of people who saved it for later).

@Luffymcduck I loved my Wii U. The dual screen was a waste on some games, but it REALLY made Splatoon something special. I still miss the map function at a glance. Also it may seem weird, but i liked how heavy the wii u controller was. The heft felt "right".

NA is so deliciously terrible. It's something I would have seen as a kid and 100% wanted the game asap, so I'll go with that.

@nessisonett This is the first time I can ever remember you changing your avatar. It's the end of an era. haha

BALATRO was my FAVORITE game of 2025. I played it instead of my Nintendo Switch for almost my entire trip to China. I kind of got burned out once I got the the higher levels (level four I think, maybe the black chip) because I just couldn't win any more. So I tried the easy levels again and couldn't win then either. I don't know what changed, but it seemed like everything I would build my deck for, I'd get a boss that countered all of that. Lost all joy in the game. It definitely didn't start out like that for me. Maybe just dumb luck.

This is one of the few movies that I can say the 2nd one was better than the first (at least in my humble opinion).

It would be cool if all the koopa kids come back as the antagonists. Imagine Bowser has gone missing. Bowser Jr is alone and weakened. Then he learns of a mysterious council. All the kids are in silhouettes on screens. Then Mario has to go battle them in different worlds. Actually, that could be a tv series that leads to the movie where Wario is the bad guy...

I've never heard of this game, but will look it up now that I watched this. Whether he is in it or not, very cool fan service.

@ShadLink Breath of the Fresh Wind seems like it would be a great game for One Piece DLC, have you heard anything about that?

I want one of these but the theater by me is ALWAYS sold out of the buckets for any movie by the time I see it. I don't even like Popcorn like that, but I love Yoshi, so it's cool!

@MTMike87 THEY SHOULD have been the ones in the movie. Nothing against Hoskins and Leguizamo, but this is the Mario and Luigi I loved.

Eternal Darkness Remake, CONFRIMED! (unfortunately not confirmed)

Millionaire Edition has me for the win!

I am looking for a nice Arcade Soccer game, so I'll give it a look. Hope it has a demo!

Pretty cool they extended the easy mode to all characters. This is something I saw a lot of people here in the comments request. I'm actually ok with easy mode just being Yoshi and Nabbit, but I understand how children could be upset not being able to be Mario in a Mario game. Or for me, Luigi!

Wouldn't it make more sense to go ahead and make them now and store them than wait since the price of chips seems to keep going up up and up? Maybe no room in a warehouse for them.

I like my Switch 2, but having had it for a while now, I see no reason to upgrade from my Switch OLED. I've yet to play MarioKart because I don't care about Mario Kart like that. Donkey Kong is fun, but I'd rather just play a few matches of Splatoon than DK. I got Madden but thought it was trash compared to the old school ones on PS2 / 3 so don't need that. And honestly on trips I just take the OLED one with me since I'm still playing Odyssey on that.

I'm not knocking the system, just saying I think a lot of people feel like I do, there isn't compelling software coming out each month. I haven't played Metroid yet, because as soon as I saw the motorcycle thing, I lost all interest in playing that. I just imagined a lot of tedious driving back and forth time.

@Shepdawg1 You only get five swings per hour. If you want more, pay for them, or wait one hour for your swings to recharge. FUN!!!!

I've put WAYYYYY too many hours into this game, and I really do need to finish the 1 player modes. I always start it, and then get distracted with life. haha

Just noticed the comment about Pikmin being the most global characters, and remembered that my Chinese girlfriend, when she went to the Nintendo Store in Japan, only got a Red Pikmin. That's all she liked. Maybe this Miyamoto guy is on to something. We should probably keep an eye on him to see what else he thinks might work in video games. haha

@KingMike I LOVE the Ted Turnerize line.

Still interesting to me that ToTK sells more on Switch 2 and BoTW sells more on Switch 1.

Someone may have explained this prior, but any known reason?

There was an old school 5v5 game i played on the computer, probably circa late 80's early 90s where there were there were 10 players and you drafted a team like a pickup game. I think it was Street Sports Basketball by Epyx (same people that got me hooked on California Games!). I always thought there should be a Mario game like that. It could be 3 on 3, but you pick your team and each player has their own special skills that gives strategy. (That might have been this game, but I never played it). Just like I want them to do a remake of "Ice Hockey" which to this day is one of the best hockey games ever.

@shiningpikablu252 You have me intrigued...

And I think a "Chat bubble" would have made more sense for the button design.

The voiceacting sounds non-union. But, the overall concept is cool. If it goes on deep discount I'll check it out. Reminds me of my old school PC games.

So as a union member, Not sure if Video Games are under the same rules as us, I cannot act in anything that is not Union. It can make me lose my membership in the Union if I take acting gigs that are not Union Certified and under a Union Contract. We get stop work orders. SO there is that aspect of it too.

On first glance, it made me think of Shadowman which was one of my favorite games on the N64. Love the way it looks. I'm looking forward to seeing what people say about it once it's out. This might get added to the wishlist. Looks dope.

@EarthboundBenjy AND I am STILL hoping they'll bring Rare Replay to Switch. I wish they would a few modern quality of life adjustments too. Like if Jet Force Gemini, once you saved a bear, it would be saved forever instead of re-spawning every time you enter the area.

This is the first tie I've seen in a long time. I just voted for NA and with 1804 votes it is 50/50. So cool! I like ties.

@CerberusDarkone It's been 4 years dude. Did you ever get around to it? haha (I had forgotten about this thread until literally right now).

@Koda1000 100% agree. That's why I have kind of given up on reviews from most sites or metacritic scores. I do like how NL reviews games. I'm usually within a point to 1.5 points from what they score it.

Like Metropolis: Lux Obscura is a 49 on Metacritic, but is actually one of my favorite match 3 puzzlers on the switch. Sure it has nudity, but I'm an adult. And a gritty themed match 3 is hilarious is concept to me, but I bought it on sale, and what I really like is the mechanic that you can slide a piece all the way down the row or column, it doesn't have to be adjacent. It has 4 endings, (I always thought there would be a hidden one). So long story short, that's why I don't believe metacritic dogpile reviews. The game is fun, but because of adult themes it go pushed down. Oh well, if they ever come out with a sequel I'll buy it. That and Lumines are my two goto games when I want to kill an hour when bored on a flight.

I remember this game coming out on PS5 and a few people getting so upset about the games protagonists looks and "physics". I haven't kept up with it, but at the time the creator said they wouldn't change anything. If it is truly the same game and not censored, I would buy it. I like people that stick to their vision and are not pushed around by the "morally superior". Also, I've heard it is a GREAT game.

@8bit-Man Agreed, this should be a new IP. I just don't like when something is called Origins and it seems like it is set further in the timeline. But I don't remember much about the first Game (never played the rest). But this seems like cashing in on the Turok name when they could do a new IP that would resonate more with me.

I always wanted to play this. I was into 1080 on N64 and SSX (or SSX Tricky I think) was on Gamecube. Looking forward to this one.

I like PES better than FIFA back in the day. The last one I bought was actually on the 3DS (whatever year that was). I do not care as much about the graphics as the gameplay so if this has a demo I'll try it.

I'm in the camp that I really glad he is taking his time to make sure this is done right. There are SO many games that are coming out monthly anyway. I would rather someone take the time and get it how they envision it, instead of cutting corners and putting out a product they are not proud of. I'm so glad that Stardew Valley has stayed so evergreen for him. The world needs more creators that have this much passion for a project.

Why does it seem to me like with not a lot of effort Nintendo could actually made these multi-colored games. Even if they only had 16 colors on the screen at the same time, I think it would make it way easier on the eyes. Maybe if they do well they will do a Virtual Boy DX style filter where they Colorize the games.

This made me realize I bought this AND HAVE YET TO PLAY IT!!! Time to head to the storage unit... ORRR it's going for $150 new on ebay... time to get some loot!

@Nep-Nep-Freak I agree. Back when I paid for it, I really enjoyed the experience. For some reason after it went free to play, I just started enjoying it less and less. I haven't played it since FTP season 7 or maybe 8. I can't remember what changed (since that was like probably 4 or 5 years ago I quit). Also had to turn off voice chat as soon as Nintendo let them add it because the last thing I want when I come home from work is a 12 year old calling me the f word because I missed a pass (after scoring all four of our goals haha). I might give it a try on Switch 2 just to see how good it looks.

Seeing this for some reason inspired me to think that Justine Bateman Circa late 80's early 90's would have looked great as Lara Croft. I hadn't even thought of her in years, but was like too bad Tomb Raider wasn't a thing then.

@phartsy Yeah, I actually liked that 2 took away the Kraken. I'd like to see the Killer Wail revert to it's original form as well. If I could have any special back, it would be the seekers that gave multiple seekers at once. That was OP as heck, but since I have such close range with the roller, it made sense to have something that could stretch the field. THat's why I use the curling bombs now.

@Serpenterror Other than the switch 2 being trash (your last point), I agree with everything you said. It feels like the hubris Nintendo had after the Wii and launched the Wii U. I have a switch 2 and the number one game I play on it is.... Splatoon 3. Which I can play on my OLED. Mind you, it does look better on switch 2, but not $500 better. If I had to do it over again, I would have not have bought the switch 2 when I did (July). I would have waited for deals at black Friday or something. The $450 with Mario Kart World seems fair to me. I have yet to play Mario Kart Work and only sparingly play Donkey Kong. It just becomes so repetitive. I don't know why, but there is something about it that lacks the magic of Mario Odyssey or even Mario Wonder. I'll keep playing DK though, because it does seem to get better as the game goes on.

For the stock price, Nintendo is a great stock to make money off of. Their stock price is very cyclical. Switch 2 announcement, it went down. Switch 2 sales figures, it went up.
Now it will go down. Once they announce some games that will sell a ton (Animal Crossing, Splatoon 4, Mario, etc) it will go up again.

@phartsy The Triple splash down I think is the most overpowered things in the game. I can't tell you how many times I've thought I had the drop on someone only for them to hit me with that. They should make the circumference of them MUCH smaller. I main the roller which means I usually fight close to people. Maybe the Triple Splash Down is less intense for people that fight from a distance, but for me, I only escape 1 out of 10 probably.

This seems rather simple. If you don't like X, don't click the link. If you are ok with it, click it. BlueSky instabans a lot of people if they say one thing that people don't agree with. It becomes an echo chamber. I do not understand why so many people think, "I don't like something, we should ban it!" Just because you do not like something doesn't mean that no one should be able to use it.

But for the reason I came to comment, Team Solo winning makes me happy. I thought Team Friends were SOLID! I could dominate a lot of the team Family though. It's weird. I've never had a splatfest like that before. If I saw the Mustard yellow ink at the beginning I KNEW we had a W. If I saw the blue, I knew it would be a battle.

Also, I greatly dislike the 10x and 100x battles. I even won ours but just don't like the concept. I could win 8 battles in a row, but then if had a 10x and lost, it defeated all of the wins I did. I'd rather each battle just count once, what do others think?

I have a friend that loves this game, and after 6 years of having a Switch, she only plays this, Zelda BoTW, and Animal Crossing. I was a little curious about it, but you make me want to give this game a try (and I go to the gym 3 times a week already (hence why I never thought I would want to try).

And funny, I misread pootling as pooting and laughed so hard. In my childhood, this was the polite term for farting and I imagined someone in the gym walking around farting. haha

@MamaSymphonia I'm all for keeping jobs for humans and not ai, but as a former hand model (Gosh I have had an interesting life), it looks more to me like someone that is not a hand model to do some modeling.

I can hear the director saying "MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT BLOCK THE SCREEN!" but at the same time she has to hold it sturdy enough a kid can drag on it without making her move or drop the tablet.

It could be AI, but it looks more to me like a model that hasn't done hand modeling being told what to do and trying to be overly cautious.

I have the mushy ZR issue that others have had on my current S2 Joycons. So I'll probably get these so I can send that one off for repair.

If I had never seen the North American one, I would have thought the European one was one of the best covers ever. But the American one totally makes me understand exactly what the game is about.
