That nintendolife is a pretty good site.

Merry Christmas nintendolife!

Splatoon 3 - Salmon Run

Rocket League

It's a devious crime that Metal Gear games aren't on switch, FIVE YEARS into switch lifespan.

Rocket League - Trying to get higher in diamond rank 3v3. Been watching SpookLuke's videos lately. It's helping. (I don't think I've gotten out of Diamond 1 in 3v3 solo queuing). It's amazing how fun this game is when you learn new stuff and take new skills into matches.

And probably some Splatoon 3 Salmon Run. Still plugging away for silver scales to buy a black slopsuit. I've got 42 silver scales.

@Zuljaras Switch box art in US has a "Download Required" banner on it.

@sixrings Splatoon 3 added the ability to save jobs from salmon run. Using the grizzco computer in the salmon run training room, you can save Jobs. I'm thinking, you probably can save a Big Run job, and play that via local wireless with friends? This is just a guess, though. I don't have experience with local wireless Splatoon, and it's the first Big Run. It may be worth a try.

I think the bigger missed opportunity, is when a game doesn't offer you the option to play as a male or female character. My nieces would love if Zelda offered a female version of Link.

I think a new Crash Team Racing would have made more sense. That's what I was hoping for.

Zero confidence the game can run acceptably on switch hardware or Ninetndo's next gen. (Forgive my skepticism)

I'll pass.
Free game offers like this have never yielded something I want to keep on the console. Also, I don't need the anxiety of having to get every game every 24 hours. "Missing a game will break the chain, and you won't be able to claim the next game".

Splatoon 3 Salmon Run

Rocket League

Trials Rising

Still no Paperboy! XD

I've wished onigiri (rice balls) were commonly sold near me in the US so I could try them, but nobody sells them around me that I've seen. (Well, I don't know if there's an asian market near me, but it's likely not convenient)

Luigi's Mansion Multiplayer pack is on sale!!! For some reason, I just didn't want to pay the full $10 for it.🤣 It rarely goes on sale.

@Wylfen The article only says "post launch" with no date. That could me anything, unfortunately. Perhaps using the developer site's contact page, you can ask with an email. Ask for a release window.

Splatoon 3 Splatfest & Salmon Run. (Gotta flex that pink slopsuit in Salmon Run!)

Rocket League. Trying to get back into diamond rank 3v3. And I'll pay some casual 3v3.

I think my american dialect skews the interpretation since no one says "thank you" like that in the US. Two of those four reads really sound similar to F you to me.🤣 That's quite comical.

@romanista Conch shells are for free shell-out machine capsules.
1 Conch Shell = 1 Shell-out Machine capsule.
You will lose your unspent conch shells when spaltfest ends if you don't exchange them for capsules. Use them up! There's no benefit for saving them up.

(The game keeps track of your conch shells total for the week for calculating splatfest winners at the end of spaltfest. Your conch shell total is the same regardless of whether you spend them at the shell-out machine or not. So use them up! Free shell=out machine capusles!)

So only 1/3 of switch owners have NSO? I'm surprised by that.

Team Sonic is so confident in the switch version, they haven't given a review code for the Switch version. I think I know how this story goes.

Green shirt looked cool, so I picked grass.

I'm tired of the underpowered Nintendo console business model, and tired of missing out on modern games. I want one console that can play modern games and Nintendo games. My money is ready.

@Fizza Russell T Davies returning & taking over is why I wanted to get last season over with. I think Whittaker could have been better with Russell T Davies or Steven Moffat.

I'm guessing Cavill didn't know the show would last 4 seasons.

Hmm, that new trailer looks like the game runs at 20fps in much of it, sometimes worse. I want it to run good. Totally interested if they get it to run acceptably.

After 2 generations of virtual console, I'm not sure I'll ever like nso games. And that's why I'll be pleased to never give them money for the expansion.

Plenty of Rocket League playing Spooky Pumpkin mode. It's fun. Also Splatoon 3 - Salmon Run, maybe some turf war.

That pop-in is too distracting for me.

@LittIeZ You'll be fine. I think I got Splatoon2 four to five months after it's release. There's still two years of new periodic content updates for Splatoon 3.

Most played game on my Switch. The game didn't change at all since it went from pay to free to play. So, I've kept on playing it. I understand why people hate free to play, but there's no difference in the game. They got rid of mystery/pay loot boxes. I'd say that's a positive move.

The new G2 esports away-team decal is fresh. I got that for the fennec.

@Deltarogue Oh, I forgot that Deep Cut will likely get amiibo. Good point!

I had a good time playing the single player campaign in Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2. I think it took me 10-12 hours? I'll probably get 3 if the single player is as good or better.

No black space suit from the end of the single player? Huge missed opportunity.

Works for Firefox(PC), too.

However, it doesn't appear to work for Firefox on android tablet.

Did anyone praise the update as fixing the game? Nintendolife never even reviewed the update - I assume that was because the game didn't get a reliable or proper fix. (Correct me if I'm wrong) I wanted this game, but the technical issues scared me off.

Empty boxes will deceive so many parents disappoint so many people and presents.

Oh, look at the more realistic denim wrinkles on Mario.

But both of those lynels are at the coliseum, not gerudo. No sane person is edging a Lynel from gerudo to the coliseum.

@Bunkerneath I'm curious if your last shrine will be a puzzle or one of those Major/Minor "Test of Strength" guardian battles.😁🤣

@Browny "contracters" = no full time benefits. It's like being a temp.

I have nothing positive to say about the "two-tiered" company trend of the US. My company stopped giving pensions just before I joined. So, everyone else had pensions, except me and the new hires. Then they moved part of the company to mexico. Then sold off my part. Then I lost health insurance. All this, and the company wasn't even struggling. Total bs.

This is amazing!
😁😁

Assuming The Spirit and the Mouse is currently in the works?

Still waiting to see what gear they come with.

Shiver is my least favorite of Deep Cut, but I picked Gear.

@dartmonkey Ah, excellent. Thanks for clarifying. Thanks Gavin!

I approve of the sharp threads @AlexOlney.

@Fizza Yeah, we need that black space suit! That clear/rainbow-diffraction space helmet thing is sick. (I'll buy the nfc card version)

Im not feeling the three teams thing. Feels like it muddies up the choices.

I voted gear, because my friend did.

Alex got the Judd badge the moment I tuned in. Nice work, Alex!
