@Dpullam @rvcolem1 not true at all, the adventure mode is not the only single player mode and it's definitely not the most substantial, there is a whole mission mode you can unlock with 100 missions that have 3 goals each

Random Nintendo game update on a random Monday let's goooo
This is nice, I tried the demo of Pikmin 3 once and I had no idea what to do but maybe I should give this series another shot
Now where are my updates for Metroid Dread and Prime Remastered?

I'm always down for a good mystery game, and I've heard good things about this one so I'm very interested in playing this
This also reminds me that I need to play The Darkside Detective games

if it wasn't for me still playing Lies of P (I have some of the base game and whole DLC left to do) and Onimusha coming out next week I would jump on this day one but it'll have to wait, but I am excited to play this as soon as I can

I hope Galactic Tactics is good but I am more interested in the "also in development" thing, it would be cool if it was a 3D game, Worms 4 is pretty underrated honestly and I would love if they gave that style another shot

@Kidfunkadelic83 say that again

@ChameleonBros the difference is they had to do it for Duck Hunt in order to rerelease it at all, while SimCity plays fine on a controller even if it's not ideal, and I don't see Nintendo going through the effort to patch-in a mouse functionality just for one game that didn't have it originally

@ChameleonBros SimCity didn't have SNES mouse support originally so if it was added to NSO it still wouldn't have mouse controls

good to hear that this is turning out to be a solid port, I'll be jumping into this one once I'm done with Lies of P

I imagine the new mode will just be some sort of survival mode, similar to what Streets of Rage 4 and TMNT Shredder's Revenge got

@MasterGraveheart it seems like EA lost the license last year

@Xander76 that was an error, now the press release correctly says that it's capped at 30

@roy130390 @Broosh NSO is not required

@StrangerSun Part 2 doesn't add a new town, so there is only one more they'll be adding in the expansion pass

I'm going with Super Metroid, I don't care for the game itself but the japanese box art is fantastic, Dread is close second for me

@DangerZone nope, in order to unlock Bleak Beach (the place where you can start the DLC) you need to finish the story of Withered Wasteland, which does include freeing the Onix, and rebuild the Pokémon Center

@Henchdog there was an early build leaked last year, iirc it wasn't 2D but it was isometric

@TKundNobody "The free update will also contain a shared storage unit" they literally say it in the same sentence that mentions the shared storage unit

The LEGO questions always get me, I don't care for LEGO sets so I never read those articles

Nice, I remember the developer warning people about a poorly made clone of their game that was on the eshop so it's cool that they are releasing the real thing on Switch and Switch 2, I haven't played it but I am interested in trying it out
But I'm really hoping that after this they will port their previous game Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom to Switch and Switch 2, that's such a fantastic and unique 3D platformer and it would be great to see it get a console release

@Drew250 it did, the Playdate game is called Tiny Turnip

@datamonkey it's not a new game, it's a collection of old Famicom, Super Famicom and Game Boy games

@KayFiOS in the Ask the Developer interview they said it was made for Switch 2 from the start

@shikadi Raiders is not a multiplayer game, it has co-op but that doesn't make it a multiplayer game

@FrylockJ NSO is not required

NA/EU is easily the better one, it's not even close
I would really like if they added this to NSO (although I want Mario Golf first), maybe then I would finally figure out how do you even play baseball, that sport still makes zero sense to me

@brakeman90 it's not pixel based, it's 2.5D like Bloodstained Ritual of the Night

yeah I'm gonna wait for a Switch 2 version thanks

@AJWolfTill those themes are available too, this list doesn't have all themes listed that are available

@Toastmaster That's not the reason in that game's case
Ex-Zodiac just isn't done yet, there are still a few stages missing, plus a few earlier ones need to be updated to bring them up to the same quality level as the newest ones
And the most important reason is that it's a solo dev project and he doesn't have the time or money to work on it full time at the moment

@jco83 rip, you're gonna have wait 2 years before they let you unlock it with tickets

Freaking finally!
I had enough tickets to unlock all special themes that I was missing, now I just need to unlock those basic ones

@AussieMcBucket you can only earn tickets by doing daily goals, so you do earn them by playing the game

@Res462 it doesn't, I'm getting both

@PlatinumTour SW2 has the performance and balanced modes from the PS5 and the Xbox Series X/S versions, PS4 doesn't, so I think it's safe to assume that it's better than the PS4 version

Glad to hear it's a solid port, just like with Elden Ring my PC isn't good enough to run the PC version and I don't own other consoles so this will be my first time playing the game, very excited for it

@Suketoudara Bullet Bill Racket was bad lol, if you stood near the net you could counter it very easily as it couldn't be aimed left or right too much, this update should make it actually usable

Nice, I haven't played in a hot minute so this is a good excuse to play some matches

@ElRoberico no, it's for all platforms, the article would say if it was

@Furealz the update only adds mouse controls and improved frame rate so I doubt it'll take up much space, it's not like the Xenoblade upgrade which adds new content to the game

@somnambulance the Switch 1 version will get an update that adds mouse controls and improves the frame rate when played on Switch 2, the article even says that

@Nao120 it's a new game, first proper new entry in the series since Touch My Katamari released in 2011 on PS Vita

@JohnnyMind kinda, you get the mouse controls and improved frame rate in the update but resolution upgrade is not included and is exclusive to the native Switch 2 version

@hel105 there is, it functions like the Dragon Ball Sparking Zero or the Super Mario Odyssey Switch 2 upgrades, where it's just an update that you download rather than an upgrade pack you get from the eshop
idk why the reviewer said there is no upgrade path

@Penguinpengy they did go back and made PS5 and Xbox Series w/e versions of the Turok 1 and 2 remasters so I won't be surprised if we get those updated in the near future (plus Turok 3), they also quietly released a Switch 2 version of the System Shock 2 remaster so I think they will at least update all of their most recent remasters for Switch 2 (except DOOM + DOOM II and Heretic + Hexen as those are tied to Bethesda and Microsoft)

@EAFB1999 this isn't a "part 2" of Relink, it's an expanded version, so idk what are you talking about

I really loved the demo so that convinced me to grab the full version, looking forward to playing it once I'm done with The Adventures of Elliot

I tried multiple times to get into this one but I just couldn't, and it's not just the monetization that didn't sit well with me, it had some nice gameplay ideas but the execution just felt off to me
Still a shame to see it go and not have an offline version

Wario Land 1 is fine, out of all Wario Land games it's by far the weakest in my opinion but it's not bad, I just have zero desire to play it again
Wario Land 2 is my second favorite in the series so I'm annoyed that it's still not available on NSO
I never heard of the other two games, maybe I'll try them out at some point
Dr. Mario & Puzzle League is cool but we already have really good versions of these on NSO so it's not super exciting

@DominionGamma which version of MK8 are you talking about?
The original Wii U version got DLC only a few months after launch
