Third world problems: I don't like that Funky Kong isn't screaming 'Coconuuuut!' when boosting, like he did in MK Wii. Somehow that was something I was looking forward to. I blame nostalgia.

Besides that I would have appreciated Rainbow Road and others from DD.

In the Netherlands, there was a commercial in the 80s or early 90s in which the tagline was: We from Toilet-Duck, advise Toilet-Duck

I'm still hoping, albeit unrealisticly, for gamecube games.

I would go for German Bowser and French Mario

What's TBD? I want TBD.

The options in the poll aren't mutual exclusive, which bugs me. I'd like to play TP and WW on switch with enhacend features, and I don't think the predicition is accurate.

@HugoRadio somehow I just noticed that after reading your comment. Too bad though. If corrected for bin size, I would still expect a peak at the 25 to 50 range, with a bell curve like shape.

Am I the only one excited to see a bell curve popping up?

Wave Race Blue Storm on the GameCube.

This is how metaphors work. If you've played a game like Breath of the Wild, you'll probably have a lot of experiences and associations with it. If the word BOTW is linked with a new word in a compassion relation, all the associations will transfer to the new word. This probably won't be as strong as when you'd use a more overarching term as 'open world game'. Because, I assume for many, the associations are less specific with 'open world games' then with 'BoTW'. So the experiences and associations don't transfer as easily with relating 'open world games' to a new word as opposed to 'BOTW'. In short I agree we have to deal with 'x-like game' because that's how language works most properly.

I'm sorry to use words as vague as experiences. I could put it into more technical terms, but nobody would understand me without giving a 6 hour lecture on acquiring language from behavioral point of view.

@Bobb I thought the same and because it's that good is why I probably never noticed it.

I'm not thrilled by a takeover if the reason is 'because they got in to NFT'. That doesn't predict anything good.

My fav combo was flying koopa trooper with diddy kong in toads car. Triple red shells for the offense and the huge *** bananas for defence. Loved placing one of those on the bridge of DK mountain.

@NinChocolate I agree, but don't think it's new. South Park did an episode about it a decade ago.

Atm it feels rather like doing chores once a week then achieving something. The icons are nice though.

@Silly_G I plead guilty in laughing a bit to hard about that joke.

Wasn't there an article a couple of days ago on how Nintendo doesn't buy other developers but lends out their IP to them with some oversight over the project? Maybe there is another reason why they are hesitant?

@TheRedComet I do like this idea of yours.

Yes I can hear you Grim Fandango!

I think 'mon' means man, but I don't think 'och' means anything.

@AstroTheGamosian you say you'd like Nintendo take risks if the risks pay off. But the whole point of taking risks is that you don't know if they'll pay off in the future.

The main question on everybody's mind: is Goku in it?

@UmbreonsPapa I totally agree with you. I think they didn't think it trough well enough or they might have thought it trough too well. It indeed seems that they still have a problem in communicating with their audience if they bring such a complicated service to the market.

@Friendly DLC which you don't own, but you do own the upgrades from the DLC on the main game. Which makes it even more convoluted

What I want is to own the AC:NH DLC at some point and play N64 games on switch. But then it feels I have to pay 25 + 40 = 65 euro. And I seem to pay double for the AC:NH DLC. That's not worth it to me.

I'm not that big of an AC player and like to drop in and out now and then. But those times can be a half a year apart. It would keep me from enjoying popping in if I have to pay again to acces a part of the game.

@sanderev This makes it so convoluted that I got tired of thinking what I want and I just gave up on the expansion pack and the DLC. I've tried to explain it to my girlfriend how the pricing works, it wasn't that easy to understand for which price you get what.

What I would want is to own the AC:NH DLC and play N64 games, but that costs a lot and feels like I'm paying double.

Still want the NSO basic plan because of online play for Splatoon and Mario Kart

@Ooyah Captain Sisko on his deep space invader station or Darth Archer from the third computer animated cartoon would be my favorite.

It's the believe of perpetual growth, that isn't rooted in reality, that investors are interested in. When a company still makes profit, but not as much as last year they are believed that the invisible hand of the market will rain doom on them. We, mere humble consumers, may not believe in this vengeful invisible hand-God of the market. Of which bloomberg is its prophet and the investors its disciples.

My personal (only own a switch) most anticipated games were:
Metroid
Botw 2
Mario + Rabbids

I'll buy this, only if in the mean time the heaven doesn't come crashing down on my head.

@Alpha008 If you have the chance you should definitly go there once. It's been a while (like 20 years) ago that I've been there, but it was magical.

Don't really care for the singer. Just came here for the comments. I was not disappointed.

"It would be interesting to see how these three games faired with digital sales also included in the mix"

Statistically you'd expect the same correlations among these games, unless there is an unexpected cofounder, which influences the randomization of digital vs physical buyers.

They're not even working on the sewage.

Hahaha..the irony, one money wolf attacking another for being a money wolf.

When I read "Father!!!" I heard Matt Barry's voice from the IT crowd instantly.

@Crono1973
I don't say you have to like it that Nintendo works this way. However, implying that it's only a monitairy decision from nintendo's part is a bit short sighted imho.

So what I see Nintendo doing with most of their titles is thinking about a primary idea what they want to produce. Anything that goes against this primary idea they don't add in their game.
In interviews with one the creators it was said that their idea for the game was his loneliness from being away from his family and friends.
From this perspective, and I don't say it's the right perspective, it seems logical that you sharing an island is being promoted and everybody having his or her own island is not.
I do like Nintendo for sticking to an idea.

I actually like sharing the island with my gf. I would like to choose that option in the questionnaire.

I, for one, love the colourful games from Nintendo. They make me cheerfull. I'm not looking for realism and grit in games. I'm happy Nintendo delivers on this aspect with, most of the time, sound gameplay experiences.

I'll continue FE three houses. I've started with the blue lions after finishing with Claude. I'm building the suspense towards playing with Edelgard.

This is awesome. I hope they do a metroid version of this as well now.

@patbacknitro18 hear hear!

Defenitly Fire Emblem. I've just finished the Golden Deer house storyline, and now deciding which house I want to play next. It really is a lovely game, and such a trowback to the fun times playing Radiant Dawn on the Wii.

I'm really looking forward to a new FE for the home console, since the last one I played was Radiant Dawn. Really loved that game. Hope I can get back in to it after the changes they've made during the past years.

I read 'You got boost power', and not only did I hear the voice from GX in my head, I really want a remake of GX or a new f-zero for switch now.

Seeing the ton con garage robot: And Jesus wept, for there were no more world's to conquer.

Ive played civ V, but my laptop is to old and full with work stuff so I dont use it anymore for gaming. So I bought Civ VI for switch and it's really nice!! Feels like home again

@Mrtoad
Thnx for clearing that up!

Wasn't there a story earlier where Nintendo used Roms for their VC?
And now I read that they get all the emulators and Roms from those sites.
So this could well be a means by which they get more Roms to publish through repossession of these Roms?
