Forget the game, we have the LAUNCH TRAILER baby! Metroid Prime 4 Launch Trailer is finally out!

I don't think I've ever watched this and I don't plan on starting now. But I hope that those who do watch will at least get a good show.

I miss the "I'll definitely get it, but not day one" option.

Anyway, I'll definitely get it, but not day one!

Eh. I want to love this game but this update isn't it. Call me when they add some real meat and potatoes. I'll be sticking with Kirby for my racing fix until then. Or Mario Kart 8 Deluxe or any other Mario kart if I really want to race with Mario and Co.

The demo definitely sold me on getting the game, so they have my sale. Didn't Shovel Knight sell well though? I honestly thought this game was a sure fire title to sell well for indie game standards. Though of course I'm not an expert on the field.

Cool design, at least!

Can't wait for the Big the Cat fishing documentary.

@SBandy1 Honestly, it's the good kind of chaos. The kind of chaos only Sakurai knows how to deliver. It's a really fun racer if you just gave it a chance.

I can understand not enjoying it though, but it's really, really not a bad game. For me it's GOTY contender, I love it a lot.

I'm disappointed. It's a really fun racer, more people should definitely pick it up. This is a product made with love and care.

I'll just get it on PC sometime. Would've loved to get the Switch 2 version, but, you know. PC will do.

Kinda want to play RE4 now just to see what the issues are.

I love the game still, but I have to say I'm really disappointed in how the game handles events. Specifically, making it very limited time slots. I just do not understand why this has to be a thing.

I leveled all four characters to 100 back in the day. Dunno how many people can say that. Made the final boss a cakewalk at that point too!

Is this the first time the PS5 console series outsold the Switch 1 series of consoles? I genuinely don't recall.

Clearly the route they should take is adding Sonia to OG Hyrule Warriors. Then they can keep this game canon and still have Sonia playable somewhere.

🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🥲

Cool, I'll see if I can peel myself away from Kirby Air Riders for a bit to give these a spin later after work.

I do love this feature, even if it's a small thing. But you know what they say, it IS the little things!

Maybe one day, but the fact that the new pages are missing just kinda rubs me the wrong way. It's cool that it exists though.

Nothing more or less than an 8. It's a really solid game, held back only by the lack of stages in Air Ride and Top Ride modes, maybe having more variety in the city as well, and the relatively little amount of headwear for the characters (but this one is a very tiny nitpick).

The game is really really good and I love it a lot, definitely contender for GOTY for me. I know Sakurai said he doesn't plan to make this a series but I do hope we'll get more Air Ride in the future.

Kirby deserves better! Come on, what're you all doing.

I picked one up very close after launch. And I'm already struggling to fit everything. I hate it.

But hey let's all settle on key cards, that makes things WAY better.

Also screw AI so hard. Should be outright banned. Nothing good comes out of it.

Europe because it has Yoshi on the front.

At least 10GB is reserved just for Myles McKenzie!

This thing looks beautiful in my opinion, not sure if I want it at that price point though.

My wallet weeps at the thought of every single character and ride getting an amiibo but I'm getting them all.

Nice, that'll certainly help keep the game alive. I've been having a blast with the game so far, it's so good!

I'll pass. I'd love to play this on my Switch 2, but this file size is way too hard to swallow. Even if I wasn't so against game key cards. If I want to play FFVII so bad I'll just play the original. For the remake I'll just get it on steam eventually. Much easier to manage big files there.

I kinda like the idea of this game, just not sure yet if I'll get it, for reasons others here already stated. Maybe I'll give it a go though if other people would want to play it with me.

Honestly I don't know how much I'll be playing this online (in fact, I think my online playing games are largely over aside from a few games like Splatoon, I'm just more of a solo player), but the way this game handles the checklist thing will definitely help in keeping my interest for a good while. I'm looking forward to receiving it tomorrow!

@benmalsky198 Well, maybe not nothing. But I mean more like, if Kirby as a series doesn't do much for you, then no amount of accessibility is likely going to change that, is what I mean.

@benmalsky198 Accessibility has nothing to do with enjoying a game, though.

Yes I absolutely am, I've already pre ordered it. I barely played the demo but I'll sure as heck play a ton of the full game!

@Aswannsong Did Kirby insult your grandma or something? Goodness, you can trim it down a notch. Kirby games aren't for everyone but the series still has its fans.

They're Link and Zelda alright. I like them.

Looking good so far. Looking forward to seeing the movie. Though please take the time to make this movie the best it can be!

Memes aside, this mega evolution is absolute bottom of the barrel garbage in my opinion. I'm not a fan of mega evolution as a whole, but at least a bunch of them still have cool designs. This is mega lame, in comparison. No amount of funny memes will change that for me. But I do appreciate the funny memes.

Edit: what the heck was going on in this comment section by the way, I see several removed messages. Maybe it's better that I don't know.......

So who's gonna speedrun this one?

Same for me as with JohnnyMind, though for me I prefer the poses/posing on the EU box art more too. It's not as exciting but I think it works in this case.

More companies should hard lock against AI. That garbage is ruining so much. If I find out a game is made using generative AI, I will not want to buy that game. If it's a repeat problem by the developers, I won't buy anything from said developer anymore.

Thank you Necrosoft Games for being based. 🙏

@dew12333 I mean, the Yoshi game has already been announced. And we're absolutely getting a new Mario game. Yoshi games only come out once every blue moon, but Mario games are always an absolute certainty. Patience, he'll get his Switch 2 specific platforming adventure, 100%.

I have a theory.

They probably didn't show Yoshi yet, as a way to advertise the new Yoshi game.

As in, they'll show off a new trailer with Yoshi, closer to his game's release. People will be talking about Yoshi more at the time because of the movie trailer that has him in it, and more people may become aware of his new game because of it.

Or am I on copium?

No Yoshi makes me sad! I was really hoping to see him here.

That said, the trailer was still good and I'm still excited for the movie regardless!

@Willo567 No, I mean that it feels like the ones responsible for these decisions think that way.

All I personally say about people buying this game is that I think it's unfortunate that they're supporting these practices but still hope they have fun playing these games.

Apologies if I made it sound otherwise.

@squiddu-real Well, just consider that they consider this the highest price a Switch 2 game can be, and games are usually cheaper than that. As far as I know it really is just Mario Kart World and now Pokopia who are this expensive. Not counting Switch 2 edition upgrades, but you can count those too.

I just found out that in Japan at least, the game is the same price as Mario Kart World. So the most expensive a Switch 2 game has been so far, and more expensive than Donkey Kong Bananza (without DLC).

Let THAT sink in. On top of it being a game key card, this feels like a big fat test of "let's see how far we can push our stupid gullible fans".

I mean, yeah. SAYING you want to support a system a lot is one thing, actually doing it is another thing entirely. I mean, I don't know how many Microsoft games I'll be buying and playing (especially if they all turn out to be game key cards), but I'm sure plenty of other people will want to bust out these games on Switch (2).

I completely forgot LEGO Zelda was actually already a thing and thought to myself, why is the headline so calm? Then I remembered. lol

Either way, not for me, but still cool.

Hahaha haha ha ha haha ha.....

Noooooooooope.

Also I'm not too worried about Nintendo's own games coming out on these. Pokémon is its own thing.

But I guess the moment Nintendo's own games release on these dreadful things, I'll have to boycott those as well.

@ShadLink If that's the case then just make it switch 2 exclusive. Or do it like they do it with the NSO app on Switch, where it doesn't have music on Switch, but does on Switch 2. Workarounds can be found. No reason not to introduce themes whatsoever.

@SillyG I think that might still not be enough.

Man, Japan gets so much cool stuff. Hopefully one day I'll be able to visit.

That Japan trip is going to be immensely expensive...
