It was such a coincidence, I beat xi the day before the announcement and I was so excited for a new game. Here I am now after so many years. I don’t know where all my hype went but it’s not here anymore.
I was hoping this would just fade away. I only have it because of Splatoon, it just sucks that it was a free service that they took away because they realised they could make more money from it.
I always thought it would be cool in a casino. King boo uses the casino to trap people, idk I just thought it could be fun. But of this list I think New Donk City would be the most fun.
@drypaphmrbro they used a euphemism for a reason, I think everyone understands the situation by reading the article, just some people don’t like the use of that word.
I say a solid 8. As much as I’ve been anticipating this reveal I don’t think it was time for this. I think they should’ve waited to reveal this or release Xenoblade X, this game is going to be shafted if switch games don’t automatically look better on the super switch (like nes vs snes)
@SplatRay001 Seems like your top three series align with mine Zelda (4 games on Nintendo music) Splatoon (2 games on Nintendo music) Xenoblade (0 games on Nintendo music)
This just seems a little fishy to me, there are no logos and no letters on the buttons. Obviously this is not official but the fact that they claim they have an actual one makes me all the more suspicious.
May 2025 bring many IPs new and old. May your wallets be empty and your library filled May your Switch collect dust and it’s successor reigns Happy new year
@CaleBoi25 I’m hopeful that we get Splatoon 4 teased on the anniversary. By then Switch 2 will have been revealed and they might be looking to have a popular genre (shooter) on the console near launch to bring more people onto the system.
@Dev1024 Why resist big man’s festive aura? It is my mission to keep Big Man’s seasonal splatfest win streak. Shiver already has so many wins, poor Frye is sitting alone in a corner with her big forehead, what a shame.

Re: Nintendo "Establishing Ways To Respond" To U.S. Tariffs, Says Furukawa
Good for them for writing a letter. It’s definitely reassuring that Nintendo has a backbone.
I find it humorous that each Switch Console will release on the first year of this president’s terms.
Re: Split Fiction Dev Knows "A Lot" About Switch 2, But Can't Say Anything Yet
I’m happy that there are clearly third party developers ready for the Switch two near launch, this is auspicious!

@Princess_Lilly What about Civ II 3 times with a dash of Civ I
Re: Nintendo President Reiterates Switch Online Will "Continue To Be Available" For Switch 2
I was hoping this would just fade away. I only have it because of Splatoon, it just sucks that it was a free service that they took away because they realised they could make more money from it.
Re: Talking Point: Where Should 'Luigi's Mansion 4' Take Place?

If only it started this year, it would coincide nicely with the switch 2 direct.

It may be calm now but I think Nintendo has a lot up its sleeve for this year…it had better.
Re: Poll: With No Switch 2 News Until April, Is A February Nintendo Direct On The Cards?
They’ve been doing a lot of tweets recently, I don’t think that’s going to change until Switch 2 is out

Re: Nacon Expects Switch 2 To Launch In The First Half Of Next Fiscal Year
@BigBluePanda pretty much, if we have learned anything, Nintendo loves to procrastinate

Re: Nintendo's Surprise Switch 2 Trailer Is On Track To Surpass 20 Million Views
That’s only because a select few people have watched it hundreds of times (I’m definitely guilty)
Re: Poll: So, How Would You Feel About 24 Racers In Mario Kart 9?
I love 24 racers but seriously… no baby park please!!!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (18th January)
I’m sorry, who is already playing Mario Kart 9? At the time of this comment 2 people are.
Re: Video: We've Spotted Some Secrets In The Nintendo Switch 2 Reveal Trailer
I’m going to actually riot if they bring back those annoying parts of Zelda Spirit Tracks where you have to blow into the little microphone
Re: Nacon Reveals New Switch 2 Accessory Range, Including Mario Kart Wheels
The steering wheel base is kinda cool, although I’ve never played Mario Kart like this.
Re: Poll: What Do You Think Of Donkey Kong's Redesign In Mario Kart 9?
Meh, just meh. I couldn’t care less.
Re: Poll: So, What Did You Think Of The Switch 2 Reveal?

Re: The Switch eShop Is A Nightmare, So We've Made Our Own "Better eShop"
Hopefully a lot of these changes come to Switch 2
Re: 'Nintendo Music' Adds Another Legendary Zelda Soundtrack, Here's Every Song Included
@SplatRay001 Seems like your top three series align with mine
Zelda (4 games on Nintendo music)
Splatoon (2 games on Nintendo music)
Xenoblade (0 games on Nintendo music)
Re: 'Nintendo Music' Adds Another Legendary Zelda Soundtrack, Here's Every Song Included
@SplatRay001 I feel that. It’s insane that we can’t feel greedy because we have so much from this gen but we still want more
I am incredibly happy that we have dragon roost island now, automatically favourited.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Klonoa: Empire of Dreams (GBA)
@stephanxliko I chose the Europe one because the gem was shiny. Simple things please me.
Re: Donkey Kong Country Returns HD Spotted In The Wild
Nintendo, the best secret keeper in the world.

Re: Switch 2 'Indentations' Make It Incompatible With Original Switch Dock, Says Genki
Well let’s just see how these leaks hold up in the next couple days. We cannot forget our grain of salt when consuming these speculations.
Re: Genki Claims The 'Switch 2' Joy-Con Can Be Removed By 'Brute Force'
This just seems a little fishy to me, there are no logos and no letters on the buttons. Obviously this is not official but the fact that they claim they have an actual one makes me all the more suspicious.
Re: Editorial: A Very Happy New Year From Nintendo Life

Happy new year
Re: Best Of 2024: Splatoon 3's 'Grand Festival' Was The Perfect Goodbye
@CaleBoi25 Same, it’s a great song.
But seriously why did they have to resurface this and remind me it’s over?!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (New Year Edition)
What did you play this week?
Same thing I play every week,
Try to take over the splatlands!
I’ve played in order of time spent: Splatoon 3, XC3FR, botw, and Fire Emblem three houses (I just started it)
Re: Feature: Nintendo Life's Alternative Game Awards 2024
@CaleBoi25 HUH is definitely my reaction listening to the side order soundtrack
Re: Reminder: New Mario Kart And Animal Crossing Lego Sets Launch Next Month
@DwaynesGames Lego animal crossing would be so cute! However I’m hoping the animal crossing team is working on Splatoon 4 right now.
Re: Feature: Game Of The Year 2024 - Nintendo Life Staff Awards
@BenAV I’m crossing my fingers for a Splatoon 4 announcement.
Re: Feature: Game Of The Year 2024 - Nintendo Life Staff Awards
@BenAV hopefully they deliver next year, we already have some good games slated for 2025
Re: Feature: Game Of The Year 2024 - Nintendo Life Staff Awards
What a great list, makes me remember that this wasn’t that bad of a year for the switch in the end.
Re: UK Charts: Nintendo Can Be Proud Of Its Last Christmas Before 'Switch 2'
@NintenGuy It’s just impressive that Nintendo is doing so well
Re: UK Charts: Nintendo Can Be Proud Of Its Last Christmas Before 'Switch 2'
@GrailUK I don’t claim to know everything about the industry, but I agree that it would be safe to assume that Nintendo will never do what you expect.
Re: UK Charts: Nintendo Can Be Proud Of Its Last Christmas Before 'Switch 2'
@The_Flume it was no doubt a quite year for Nintendo I was simply pointing out the disconnect between the game awards and the market.
Re: UK Charts: Nintendo Can Be Proud Of Its Last Christmas Before 'Switch 2'
Astro Bot just won game of the year before the holiday and is beaten by Nintendo on the charts. It just goes to show how wonky the game awards are.
Re: PSA: Switch 2 Is Getting Revealed In The Next 100 Days
@Dev1024 I really agree, I think they SHOULD announce it sooner rather than later because they Hype is dead rn and needs to be revived.
Re: The HD-2D Series 'Octopath Traveler' Hits Another Sales Milestone
I would not have expected this game to do so well. It has beautiful artwork and I’m not generally a fan of the HD-2D style.
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (Christmas 2024 Edition)
I’m playing more Splatoon 3 I haven’t worked my way back to s+ this season yet so I’m doing now.
Re: 'Frosty Fest' Returns To Splatoon 3 Next Month With A Seasonal Splatfest And More Free Gear
@CaleBoi25 I’m hopeful that we get Splatoon 4 teased on the anniversary. By then Switch 2 will have been revealed and they might be looking to have a popular genre (shooter) on the console near launch to bring more people onto the system.
Re: Random: New Marvel Rivals Game Mode Bears A Striking Resemblance To Splatoon
We all saw how foamstars went… I don’t think anyone can do it quite like Nintendo, however it’s cool to see the influence this game has.
Re: 'Frosty Fest' Returns To Splatoon 3 Next Month With A Seasonal Splatfest And More Free Gear
@CaleBoi25 how much time does it take to actually give us third kits? They can easily give them to us. I hope you’re right.
Re: 'Frosty Fest' Returns To Splatoon 3 Next Month With A Seasonal Splatfest And More Free Gear
@Dev1024 Why resist big man’s festive aura? It is my mission to keep Big Man’s seasonal splatfest win streak. Shiver already has so many wins, poor Frye is sitting alone in a corner with her big forehead, what a shame.
Re: 'Frosty Fest' Returns To Splatoon 3 Next Month With A Seasonal Splatfest And More Free Gear
Hopefully we have third kits?
Please I beg of you Nintendo.
Bring back wall in Blob and you will have my unwavering loyalty.
