Let's be honest, if it hadn't been for the leaked footage, Nintendo would have never released official images this early. And yes these images absolutely look like cosplay. I'd expect the 1st teaser to arrive with Super Mario Galaxy in April.
I’m currently on a 15 hour flight from Australia to the US and I’ve playing this almost non stop. I did take a short break to play some DK Bananza for a bit though.
I remember showing off BAT to some friends that lived in my dormitory just a few days after I got my PS1 on release day in 1995 and they could not not ***** believe that was an actual game I was playing on my TV. Most of them didn't even know Sony had just released a console. I popped open the lid and showed them the game was on this sleek black CD and they just stared at it.
These SWITCH update articles are the literary equivalent of Lucy yanking the football away as Charlie Brown is about to kick it. Every time you think there might be a chance that something new besides "General system stability improvements to enhance the user's experience." will be the update, nope, just another football yank.
I'm 52 and I can still remember playing this game FOR HOURS back in spring 1986 after finally saving up enough money from mowing yards to buy an NES. 13 year old me thought consoles and games will never be better than this. 52 year old me still says the same thing, and every 6-7 years I'm proven wrong yet again.
What a stupid ass trailer. Nintendo back to their family friendly 90's tone complete with upbeat announcer Hey kids! You can play as all your faaaaavorite Mortal Kombat Kharacters, Sub-Zero, Scorpion, and even the mysterious Reptile! Smh, and by golly, we won't show any blood and gore even though the game will feature plenty of blood and gore. "Friendship matters". JFC.
@Zufolobelisk Yeh I feel the same way. Hey at least they aren't the 1st person to purchase a SWITCH 2 at midnight who opens the box and smashes the console to pieces with a sledge hammer in front of a crowd of people who stood in line for hours outside a Best Buy only to be told they didn't get enough units in for everyone to purchase. Remember those idiots who did that when the PS3 launched??
A new and updated MK Arcade Kollection similiar to the one released back in 2011is definitely overdue. As a minimum, remastered arcade perfect ports of MK, MKII, MK3, UMK3 and MK4 should be included.
As a gamer since the early 1980s, I consider any system from the ATARI 2600 (1977) going forward until the Genesis (1990)/ SNES (1991) to be "vintage". "Retro" to me, would be any system from the PS1 (1994)/N64 (1996) until the discontinuation of the XB360 (2005)/PS3/Wii (2006) systems. As a small child, I started gaming on the 2600 and had just turned 12 years old in 1985 when I was able to witness firsthand the gaming glory that the NES became. The SNES arrived when I was 18 so most of my young adulthood was consumed by that system up until the PS1 arrived when I was 22. Now I'm 51 and I'm still playing. Not as much as I used to, but I'm out there. I have fond memories of the dawn of what is now referred to as "home console gaming" and back then as a 12 year old kid never in my wildest hallucinations did I ever think we would have what we have today.

Re: Random: Paul Rudd "Got A Real Kick" Out Of Reuniting With Nintendo For New Commercial
Wonder what Nintendo paid him in 1991 vs 2025? Few hundred bucks then vs couple hundred thousand now?
