I don’t like their mobile apps. Such a predatory and disingenuous market. Stick with what you’re actually good at, Nintendo- making quality games and music.
@anoyonmus dive into the GBA games first and immerse yourself in that gorgeous gothic pixelated world for a bit. SoTN is a great game but a touch antiquated in terms of exploration and backtracking. (It’s a great Metroidvania for sure but it’ll take a bit of getting used to…) enjoy yourself!
Yes please but make it in the traditional side-scrolling style. I liked the 3D adventures here and there but you can’t beat the Iga-Vania series on GBA/DS. Also the chiptune soundtracks coupled with the pixelated graphics were pure aural and visual bliss for the eyes and ears.
What really I love most about Nintendo is their sublime use of music. I can’t play musical instruments in person but their little jingles, rhythm laden gameplay mechanics and sublime soundtracks have been part of my life since I was just a wee lad. Pure aural bliss, all the way through the years!
@Freek it’s an incredible game, from the lush visuals, the sumptuous music to the beautiful story… it’s truly something special and I sincerely hope you enjoy it.

I hope the sales are good enough to inspire Nintendo to commission further sequels to this beloved franchise.
Re: Metroid Prime Remastered Studio 'Iron Galaxy' Confirms Lay Offs
Oof.. dreadful news for those hardworking employees.
The video game industry needs to unionize to combat this sort of thing.
Those poor individuals work so hard for the games and content we enjoy each day; they need proper compensation and respect.
Re: Nintendo Music Adds Classic Super Mario SNES Soundtrack, Here's Every Song Included
