@MrGawain I'm guessing Bayonetta is not considered a Nintendo series ? While it is exclusive to Nintendo systems (well 2 & 3 are). You're the only one who's mentioned her and she's missing from the poll.
I am so looking forward to Bayonetta 4, and also everything (anything?!) they're ready to give us as part of the 15 years celebrations ...
I got the bundle, an express 256Gb card and the case+screen protection.
I would have loved a bigger card, the pro controller and the wheels ... but that seemed unreasonable at the time. I kind of regret now, but I will be playing with that thing for years, so there's plenty of time to spend more money down the road.
Waiting to see what the games situation will be .... price and storage wise. I want to keep collecting physical games. Please don't ruin this for me. Digital has no justifications whatsoever besides greed. Don't make the world a worst place than it really needs to be.
Happy for them, congratulations! And curious to play the game myself when it comes to Switch 2. Now with impressive sales like this, no excuses to throw a game key card at us when it releases.... wouldn't that be the exact definition of greed.
@speed_loafer Same, I've loved all of the orchestrated music and some artwork on the side.
3D views of the HDMI cable and wheels on the other hand was a little bit underwhelming to say the least. I actually wondered if they didn't let some sort of AI run the app for them XD
@cosmograph I completely understand your situation. I only have one daughter and she's already 10, but when she was younger it was the same and I don't dare to think how it would be with two of them! Travelling with children (even older) is also a completely different experience. Children are a blessing so you've got that to enjoy for now, and there will surely come a time when you'll be able to make some old dreams come true. I'm French, I live in Amsterdam, and one thing I absolutely love about this place is getting the visit of people from all over the world, so I certainly hope you'll be able to come too one day! Let's keep playing all those cool games in the meantime and exchanging on this lovely site ... and who knows we end up meeting in the future. Much love brother โ๐ป๐งก
@cosmograph Thanks for your recommendation, I was a bit worried about that too, since it's usually quite quick movements, and all sorts of them too. I'm going to try it with small / light weights first and see how that goes, I've already ordered them anyways, and if it's not a good idea, I can still use them for something else...
@cosmograph Tbh, I know none of the names you've mentioned! But you've made me curious so I'll look them up XD Why don't you plan a trip here, in the summer it's certainly a great place to be at, and there are tons of festivals all over the place. Additionally the city offers lots of great activities for tourists and everybody is so friendly, you'd have a great time!
@cosmograph Even though I really don't enjoy weight training, I'm still doing it sometimes. As I'm trying to bulk up just a little bit these days, I thought to get wrists and ankles weights so I would actually play through Fitness Circuit instead of some old fashion weight training. It would probably not be that handy with Ring Fit, but still, curious if you've already tried that?
Metroid Dread was really fun, and the more time goes by, the more I'm convinced I'll end up going for another playthrough at some point...
I don't really care for those cosmetics, but I'd love to get this game ... just will need to be a proper physical edition. Tell me it's one of those key cards bs and I'll have to skip ...
I was looking forward to Daemon x Machina and now even more. I'd still like to try a demo first though, the first game's demo was so disapppointing that I didn't end up actually getting the game. Hope this new one will have enough improvements to make it worth it. At least so far it does look awesome.
Other than that, I'm affraid I'll be skipping a bunch of games if we can't get a proper physical edition for them.
I'd really like to get both the Cyberpunk and Hitman games, but they need to be physically all (or most of) on the cartridge. Same goes for Elden Ring. I think otherwise I'll just pass. I have no interests in collecting SD cards. One is fine.
Nice interview. Love how those guys are to-the-point!
I had a blast with Fast Racing Neo and Fast RMX was the only game I had to switch with Breath of the Wild. Downloading this one as soon as I've got my Switch 2 and MK World is installed.
No particular interest in the Fusion mechanic, but good to know where the game is getting its name from. And sure, why not. Just really into the futuristic races. I remember that the online was weird, but I've got Mario Kart for that. So it really doesn't matter.
@joeyflannel Do get prepared for the worst, it's the best way not to end up disappointed. ๐ I wish you all the best to get your hands on your brand new Switch 2 as soon as possible!! ๐งก๐ฎ
@Qwiff Tbf I haven't watched the video. And I'm sorry you will have to wait a bit longer to play this game.
I am simply reacting to the communication presented in this article.
In general I think it's best to focus on the positive side of things, so their game is ready, it's almost published on Switch and it's still released as planned on other fronts. Why the negativity about Nintendo's certifying process? I just find it unnecessary.
Must be lucky here in Europe. Got my invite to pre-order, which I did 2 days later and I got a confirmation that it was all ok. Now just waiting for the shipping confirmation begining of June ๐๐ป๐งก๐ฎ MK World looks simply wild ๐คฉ
Sounds like making a big story about nothing. So the game is delayed a month ... big deal. Nothing in this world is perfect. And blaming others while they simply didn't provide a straightforward build upfront... It can also happen, a simple message informing of a slight delay would have been more professional imo.
That's good to read. I hate leaving things plugged in longer than necessary so I don't let my pro controllers recharge during the night. And it always shocks my how long it takes. On the other hand, they do have quite a long autonomy.
I pre-ordered the Switch 2 bundle, together with a protection screen and case, and an express SD card, but I didn't give in the new controller, seemed way overpriced ... but now I'm regretting it. At least I'll be able to use the three regular ones I already have in the meantime ... Also happy to read the D pad is improved, playing Tetris with the current ones is simply impossible.
@MatoFilipovic I just finished it a few days ago, this one was just so fun I couldn't let go until I completed all of the challenges. If it's not been reviewed here, then it should definitely be part of the list!
@NorrinRadd Glad you could enjoy it! I didn't have the same experience unfortunately, and didn't bother giving it another try either. Obviously I missed the background of the previous games to be able to follow the story. But it was mostly the gameplay that didn't click with me, the whole pressing one button triggers running jumping and catching alltogether ... But to each their own, and I hope you'll enjoy the Switch 2's Shadow as well!
I've only ever played one AC game back on the Wii U where you start in a theatre and then end up on a boat. It was one of the most tedious games I'd ever played ... so no thanks! But good news for everyone looking forward to it should I say ๐
Have got this one on my list, releasing a day ahead of the new Shinobi. Certainly looks fun. But will need a couple of reviews and a physical edition please. Switch 1 or 2 ... doesn't really matter. I'll get the cheaper version.
Nice interview. I feel the passion just reading through it. Looking forward to this game. And the other Ninja Gaiden from Platinum. And the new Shinobi of course ...
I haven't found the time or interest to play this demo, and reading through this review and the above comments tells me it won't be something for me. Off I go uninstall this as I dig further into Gravity Circuit ๐ฎโ๐ป
I love this kind of surveys NL does. Always interesting to compare with other players.
There's quite the variety in launch games for Switch 2 and that is super cool!
I've pre-ordered the bundled MKW-Switch 2, but otherwise looking forward to proper physical versions of Cyberpunk and Hitman. Fast Fusion I'm fine downloading. And who knows maybe even Welcome Tour.
I've been playing Gravity Circuit, which I enjoy a lot. It's a Mega Man wannabe, and I've reached the point where you're fighting the same 8 bosses again (two icons are greyed out so maybe only just 6 of them in normal mode?). I'm going for finishing the game without using boosters / improvements but if that proves too difficult I'll just cave in and make things more doable for myself. So far I've managed to beat 3 of them, and of course they come in a random order every time.
Tetris Effect Connected is my other go-to game in the weekends to help reach the community goal and participate in the full moon ritual.
The new Hyrule Warriors game made me get back into Age of Calamity .. I'm playing some missions in between on my dedicated Zelda Switch. ๐
@GoldenSunRM Go for it! For having reached the 100% myself in the Definitive Edition during the lockdown years, I can tell you that even then I didn't get enough. Absolutely loved that game, AoC has a different feel (and I didn't care for the Divine Beasts missions) but I'm very much looking forward to this new game. Just really hope Link will be playable too, and it doesn't matter if Nintendo considers this canon or not... the stories are always so romantic, it's just lovely.
I do appreciate the kind of exclusive NL little features and things ... but this interview was a waste of time. Not a single question answered. The guy sounds like a fan and passionate about what he does but I guess it would have been better to interview anybody else at Nintendo to actually get some answers.
@cosmograph Tropical Freeze is definitely fun. I found it a bit short somehow, or maybe it's just a bit easier than Returns, which I did a couple of weeks back. I'm also curious about the level of challenge in Bananza ... since you can break everything! I'm not 100% sold on the gameplay just yet, need to see more.
Trombone Champs is a big disappointment indeed. The gameplay is just ridiculous, the song selection is mostly anthems and bad versions of old classics, it sounds horrible and is imo mostly unplayable. There's also this layer of "humor" that is just not funny. I'm sure even with drinks and friends there is nothing there to be enjoyed. Just a cash grab novelty. But hey, I was curious ...
Curious about what you are all playing. Here are my gaming plans for the weekend:
World of Goo 2: reached 100% and now going for the flags, I need one per level and I've got 6 levels to go. It's a cool game but the controls are abysmal.
DKC Tropical Freeze: I've also reached 100% there but seeing that I've spent more time this week with Goo, I kinda feel like I want more out of this one. So I'll still try hard mode.
Tetris Effect Connected: participating in the weekend ritual + full moon, that's become my weekly addiction.
Trombone Champs: this one is pretty bad, I'll do another couple of rounds just to confirm. It's been a long time since I've played such a lame game on my sweet Switch. Good thing is... all the other games feel so good in comparison!
Also missed Fast Fusion... curious about that one. Won't make me buy a Switch 2, but probably one of the first digital purchase if and when I get the console. It was my first game on the Switch together with Breath of the Wild.
I was very disappointed. I can't vote, I think it's the wrong poll, but I wouldn't rate it more than 5.
So the user manual is interactive - ok - but sold separately?
Mario Kart open world didn't catch my interest, I'd say it's missing the point of the whole MK games.
No new 3D Mario?
A new Hyrule Warriors but not before winter, and without Link?
Selling the same games with upgrades? And what kind of upgrades too ...
A new button ... for chat functionality ... I may be too old but having to listen to people talk while I'm playing my games is a big no, and having them in from of my screen, are you kidding!
Now Elden Ring, Duskbloods and Hitman that's OK. But Silksong not coming to Switch??
Anyways, I'll sleep on it and check out the Treehouses in the coming days. But right now I almost want to cancel my invite for the handson experience in May. Let's see ....
Aha, blink and you'll miss it. I did, was it while the video was behind (or ahead) .. anyways, still need to have a proper release date, a proper trailer, and please explain why it's not coming to Switch ...
I'm thinking mouse-mode is automatically recognized by the controller when they're turned around and placed on a surface, I mean that just cannot be any other way.
Chat certainly doesn't require a dedicated button, how lame would that be to make this such a special feature. I personally could not care less for such an option.
Cast? When you dock your console and start playing on the TV directly.. also doesn't make sense.
Connecting to an old Switch, I couldn't believe Nintendo would go back to this area where you can what ... see a map while you're playing and the game's not even on pause?!
I think if they're still teasing this one day ahead of the presentation, it is the little trick they've got left up their sleeve and I'm really curious about what it could be ... I can't think of anything, but I really hope that it will be a cool Switch 2 gimmick!
This is surely not the site to advertise this. But interesting to know none the less.
I think MS should better focus on what they're good at. They've got a nice OS for PCs and laptops and a great Office suite. Anything else, buying anything like a rich spoiled child feels completely misplaced from my perspective. And I don't wish them any success in those areas.
They can keep selling their games on Switch though, I have enjoyed the Ori and Cuphead games. Again unfortunately, something they've purchased, not made themselves.
DKC Tropical Freeze: last time I checked I had reached 76%, now going through world 6. It's fun, a bit frustrating at times but a really good platformer, always feels fresh. I'm hoping there's a mirror mode just like in Returns, that will be a good excuse to go through all of the levels one more time after I'm done.
Tetris Effect Connected: participating in the weekend ritual + full moon, as usual, unlocking my little icons. During matchmaking I usually come back to this page to read more of what everybody else is playing!
Trombone Champs: I plan to check this one out, see if it can be a fun rythm game or if the novelty wears off quickly.

Aha, blink and you'll miss it. I did, was it while the video was behind (or ahead) .. anyways, still need to have a proper release date, a proper trailer, and please explain why it's not coming to Switch ...
Re: Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Imprisonment Confirmed For Nintendo Switch 2
Need to see more of this one, but definitely curious, loved both previous entries. But it cannot be that Link won't be playable now, can it?!
Re: Nintendo Drops Teaser Video For The Switch 2's 'C' Button
I'm thinking mouse-mode is automatically recognized by the controller when they're turned around and placed on a surface, I mean that just cannot be any other way.
Chat certainly doesn't require a dedicated button, how lame would that be to make this such a special feature. I personally could not care less for such an option.
Cast? When you dock your console and start playing on the TV directly.. also doesn't make sense.
Connecting to an old Switch, I couldn't believe Nintendo would go back to this area where you can what ... see a map while you're playing and the game's not even on pause?!
I think if they're still teasing this one day ahead of the presentation, it is the little trick they've got left up their sleeve and I'm really curious about what it could be ... I can't think of anything, but I really hope that it will be a cool Switch 2 gimmick!
Re: Has The Xbox Switch 2 Rival Just Revealed Its True Form?
This is surely not the site to advertise this. But interesting to know none the less.
I think MS should better focus on what they're good at. They've got a nice OS for PCs and laptops and a great Office suite.
Anything else, buying anything like a rich spoiled child feels completely misplaced from my perspective. And I don't wish them any success in those areas.
They can keep selling their games on Switch though, I have enjoyed the Ori and Cuphead games. Again unfortunately, something they've purchased, not made themselves.
Re: Introducing PLAYi - A Whole New Way To Not Play
Wait .. is this a joke then? Haven't watched the video, but I'd expect this to actually exist. People buy the strangest things ...
Just happy Switch 2's Direct is not today XD
