I don't really get why so many commentators are convinced that leak was real. The photo of the actual hardware looked kinda scuffed, it's easily possible they are just mock ups, wouldn't take a genius.
I kinda love these awkward N64 platformers, though back in the day I made it to the last world of Glover and my save file corrupted and I lost everything, brutal!
I prob would get it again as a sucker for nostalgia, it's an incredibly frustrating game but also very charming.
Really confused from this article if it is going on eshop? And is postage extortionate for the UK if buying from limited run?
Enjoyed it more than expected so gave it an 8. However, the online competition component changing just once a week is limiting as you can quickly put in your efforts and then you just sit waiting
Eh, level design in yooka laylee is pretty pants. We just need Banjo kazooie remake, it's lightening in a bottle and easily in the top 10 greatest games of all time. Yooka laylee would be lucky to make top 1,000.
I bought the GC version a few years ago for about 88 bones, played it for an hour and never again 😂, so yeah gonna pick this up and Mourne the instant devalueing of GC copies lol
I completed Gold stake for first time last night with the blue deck. 65 hours of playtime it took, and it kinda feels like I finished the game which is nice 😊
@Not_Soos "Stellar" is a bit much 😅, It was OK. Hopefully the Zelda film is more than just OK, it's got such a rich story potential that Mario doesn't have.
Bought it today and yip, it's got a pretty addictive loop. Didn't actually get that from watching Alex's video but once you play it boy does it click. Felt compelled to buy it to support the developer after this ratings fiasco
@Sonicka Thanks for trying to help, maybe will get there with practice, guessing for others it clicks more instantly! Still haven't worked out the revving on the ground too, it seems to happen sometimes with press of ZR and sometimes not
Played a couple of worlds and finding I am always fighting the controls, I want to like the game but falling down pits because I can't seem to get momentum going feels tedious, maybe I need to learn some moves, not sure what I'm missing
I bought it and I love it for having a moderately challenging yet strangely calming mindless touch control game on your switch for bite size downtime times.
I'm down with a cold and this game is pretty much what I needed right now, pleasant to look at, chill, just enough puzzleyness. Sometimes in life, you get the game you need, not the game you want.
But... Wish this was a collection that included game boy DK 1994 shakes weary fist

Re: Rumour: Supposed 'Switch 2' Design Photos And Specs Surface Online
The better question: Why not fake a mainboard?
Re: Does Astro Bot's Super Mario 'Inspiration' Cross A Line? Fans Seem Divided
Astro Bot is everything Mario Odyssey could and should have been. Far superior level design, incredible fun, charm and character.
It's a game Nintendo should envy and yes it is influenced by Mario 64 but it is the best 3D platformer since that very game (and Banjo Kazooie)
Fight me!

Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition?

But it's a fun, blast of a package

It's a really solid, quality game, enjoying the revisit, 8/10

Genuinely a GOAT direct, very unexpected at this point in Witch's life cycle!
Re: 'Yooka-Replaylee' Brings Back Playtonic's Love Letter To Banjo In Remastered Form

Re: Sony On Zelda Live-Action Movie: Miyamoto Has A Really "Strong" Vision
Just saw the new planet of the apes directed by Wes Ball, if the Zelda film is equally as good as that, I'd happy
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (18th May)
A sprinkle of Animal Well and Little Kitty Big City, and a big dollop of Another Crabs Treasure on the Xbox Series S, WHATAGAME!
Re: Sony On Zelda Live-Action Movie: Miyamoto Has A Really "Strong" Vision
Just waiting for the cast announcement direct and Arlos inevitable reaction howling with laughter
Link: Dwayne Johnson

Re: Review: Another Crab's Treasure (Switch) - Great Ideas, Crabby Performance
Been playing it on Xbox and love it, charming, funny, fun combat, what's not to like?
Re: Nintendo Switch Surpasses 140 Million Sales As Company Acknowledges Successor
To go from one of the worst selling consoles of all time to the 3rd best, minimum, is a phenomenal achievement.
Re: Nintendo Acknowledges That Successor Announcement May "Impact" Switch Sales
I mean, just be grateful your old system is still selling well and isn't the Wii U, it's time to move on and set sights on the future Nintendo execs.
Re: Rumour: Switch Successor's Codename May Have Been Uncovered
Plain... Hmm.... Interesting if there is any truth to this, it makes me curious how simple the aesthetic of the console could be?
Re: Tomb Raider I-III Remastered Update 2 Now Available, Here Are The Full Patch Notes

Re: Balatro Is Getting Its First Major Update
Wow, that's a lot of buffing!
I completed Gold stake for first time last night with the blue deck. 65 hours of playtime it took, and it kinda feels like I finished the game which is nice 😊
Ludicrously Addictive!
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Super Bomberman (SNES)

Where's Glover? (the remake)
Re: Zelda Live-Action Movie Director: "I Want To Fulfil People's Greatest Desires"
@Not_Soos "Stellar" is a bit much 😅, It was OK. Hopefully the Zelda film is more than just OK, it's got such a rich story potential that Mario doesn't have.
Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For Princess Peach: Showtime!
7/10 is the right score, polished but basic and not the all ages Mario experience that Peach deserved
Re: Review: Princess Peach: Showtime! (Switch) - Peach Breaks A Leg In A High-Class Production
The demo has to be the most kiddy thing I have ever played, more than yoshis story even with its cringe inducing Laaa, La La La, Laaaa!
But hey if you have a little one all good I guess

Wasn't going to buy this but I always wanted than darn diorama back on the day and couldn't get it so sigh, preorder placed 😂
Re: Balatro Back On Switch eShop In Europe With New Age Rating

Re: Talking Point: If 'Switch 2' Isn't Coming Until 2025, What's Nintendo Got Up Its Sleeve This Year?
I think the ultimate no brainier for me is an HD remake of Ocarina of Time. If they just made that, that's all 2024 would need.
Re: UK Charts: Mario vs. Donkey Kong Swings Past The Competition In Its Debut Week
I mean.... Well done but realistically it seems a smart release week with no competition besides ageing evergreen titles?
Re: Mario vs. Donkey Kong's OG Composers Talk Making The Jump From GBA To Switch
To be fair the post credits content more than doubles the base game so it's not as dinky a dinky kong as one may perceive on initial impressions
Re: Mailbox: Switch 2 Concepts, Legacy Revivals, Goemon Haiku - Nintendo Life Letters
Yay, letter published! It's only been like 20 years since I last got one published, in NGC magazine 😂
