Two industry giants getting a merger is hugely dangerous. We just get closer and closer to monopolies that can do whatever they please to drive up CEO profits. And of course Trump's FTC will do nothing to stop the merger (well, it might pause it until Netflix and Warner Bros. bribe Trump like the Paramount-Skydance merger).

@Truegamer79 "Then why are people cancelling Netflix in droves?" Oh I don't know, maybe it's the frequent price increases, the fact that most media producers pulled popular IPs to their own services, that people are using social media for entertainment more, or because people just can't afford it anymore. But no, by all means it must be that "woke" boogeyman that the honest internet people have told you to be afraid of. You don't even seem to have a concrete idea of what "woke" even means, just that it's some scary agenda that corrupts the minds of children.

Dang it I read the title and thought this was going to be a coffee machine that could, by some technical backdoor, display Switch 2 docked image.

Yes, I am dumb.

Please Nintendo give me a Kid Icarus game on Switch 2 that uses mouse controls as a control option!

Not this week, but I will be getting Metroid Prime 4 NS2E.

I played the online demo a few months back and found Sonic Racing: Crossworlds to be mundane, so I have no interest in purchasing any version of this game.

@PikaPhantom Pokemon Legends Z-A DLC also releases this month.

They didn't nominate Deltarune for anything, not even Best Soundtrack! They will not be getting a cent of ad revenue out of me!

I'm not a die-hard Metroid fan so I'm content to wait until Christmas for this release. I'll be getting the Switch 2 Edition physical.

It's small but greatly appreciated!

(But uh... how 'bout some bigger updates in the future, eh Nintendo?)

Excited to play when I get it for Christmas.

I hope we get a Pokemon theme for the 30th anniversary in February.

I love the game, but considering that it's a niche spin-off to an already relatively niche Nintendo IP, that we're in discount season (people gravitate towards large sales), and that only so many people own a Switch 2, it is not surprising that the sales dropped off. I will admit, I am a bit surprised about just how much it dropped off.

Most likely I will be getting Metroid Prime 4, and later down the line I may get Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade depending on if I can get it to fit on the system storage.

With that file size, and with it being a single-player game I likely won't return to much after finishing, I can't justify getting it digitally.

While I would appreciate more maps, I think Skyah gets the job done.

The much more glaring lack of content in the game comes with regards to the absence of Forgotten Land representation. I want to drive as an Awoofy!

Kirby Air Riders
I'm going to play some online matches, mostly of City Trial, and make progress in Road Trip super hard mode.

Deltarune
Maybe it's Weird, but I'm kind of curious to see what will happen if I have Noelle use a spell she doesn't know.

Have a good weekend, all!

"Prone to danger" you say?

Difficulty options are always a nice addition to games. That said, it feels a tad unnecessary to restrict hard mode to a second playthrough of the game for those who want the greater challenge. I was satisfied with the standard difficulty of Prime Remastered so I'm happy to do the same in Prime 4.

This game is incredible and I am ecstatic that so many people will get to enjoy it!

Hopefully a new singleplayer IP

If the game is beyond launch streams, why are there launch streams

Stability is my passion

"62 gigabytes? Why that's the perfect size to fit on a full game card! What's that? It's a Key Card? It's Ubisoft? Oh well naturally."

I am currently waiting for prices to go down, but this shortage may throw a wrench in my plans. I am running low on internal storage now, and I'll start deleting games soon (even if I don't like to do that).

Given the shortage, I'll look for discounts this Black Friday on 512GB cards. Later down the line I may upgrade to 1TB if prices go down, but if I am to get one soon, it'll have to be 512GB.

9/10

City Trial is exceptionally chaotic and Air Ride is a fun racing mode. Road Trip is quite enjoyable, if somewhat repetitive. All the side stuff---the checklist, My Machine, and the like---adds further substance to the experience. My only issues are that Top Ride is boring to me and I think we should have gotten multiple (probably like 3) City Trial maps.

Overall, it's a fantastic multiplayer experience unlike any other, and I would absolutely recommend it.

Do they allow you to demo the pain of enduring Myles?

Probably just Kirby Air Riders for me this weekend.

Nice art, but Papyrus looks a bit off (he isn't supposed to have pupils), I think.

If anyone wants to check out the designs I currently have on sale,

Zygarde Transform Star: MKGC5RTH

Edit: I have removed the Amazon Package Wagon Star from the Machine Market.

I was honestly expecting a bit more, but maybe there will be a holiday sale after this one ends.

If I had a nickel for every time I saw a machine with a racist design in the shop, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.

MicroSD Express Card prices can't come down soon enough

Bananza is phenomenal and deserves all the accolades coming its way

Kirby Air Riders this week

I'm loving it from what I've played so far!

Better train up an ice type I guess if Zygarde is in the mix.

This stinks. I really wish we could just collectively reject AI. Everything about it is bad: it's ruining the internet, it's harming the environment, it's increasing electrical costs, and so much more. Such a shame that the capitalists are shoving it down everyone's throats to make people accept or even rely on it, all in the name of the sociopathic desire to get even richer than they already are.

I'm not usually one for cozy games, but I love travelling to the Great Outdoors, so this may just pique my interest. I'll be keeping an eye on this one, for sure.

I cannot wait to play later today! One final hope I have is that the story mode has a proper Kirby finale.

Any sort of Alola representation will always make me happy.

@kal_el_07241 Bananza DLC is $20, Z-A DLC is $30.

The Test Ride sold me, so I'm definitely buying day one. Since it's a more casual game that I'd like to just hop in to play a few rounds on every so often, it's absolutely something I prefer to get digitally for that convenience.

Really excited

"And then there's Chunky: he's dead."

The lack of Deltarune is pissing me off

They put Mario Tennis in its release month...

I wonder if this hints towards the release windows of other unreleased games on this calendar.

Probably not, but it's something to think about.

I'm not stoked about the director but the actors definitely seem good, now seeing them in costume.

All I see is the original Starwalker

I completely agree with the letter about Mario Kart World. I absolutely love the height of the skill ceiling in this game and have already logged over 130 hours because of it.

Something I'd like to add is that a lot of people who complain about the game being a skill-free item storm don't seem to realize how they can avoid most items by taking the many alternate paths available in most courses. This makes the game incredibly strategic and a blast to play.

Good read!

Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition
I currently have around 60% of the map explored. I plan to complete the game before the full release of Kirby Air Riders.

Kirby Air Riders --- Global Test Ride
My heart yearns for more City Trial, though I probably won't play too much to make the full release feel more special and also so I can focus on Ori.

Pokemon Legends Z-A --- Nintendo Switch 2 Edition
Still going at the grind for the Shiny Charm.

Mario Kart World
I will almost certainly hop into the game for a few matches, but probably not many.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

The Super Mario Bros. Movie didn't show much of the Bros.

Perhaps the Super Mario Galaxy Movie won't show much of the Galaxy

(Why do I get the feeling someone will think this isn't a joke)
