Mount Wario, Big Blue are the ones I definitely agree with being in the Top 10. As a Zelda fan, I am very pleased with the track to add it to the Top 10 and happy you did as well.
One of the many reasons I am glad I don't live in North America.
Although you could play a store wide Mario Kart. Enter Store = Race Start. Quickly head inside. Locate what you want. Grab them. Go to counter to pay. Exit store and race ends.
I like a good Bomberman game with the classic style bomber arenas, as I enjoy them a lot. Although, I can't seem to find out if local play can sub in AI as your opponents. If you can play against AI opponents in arenas, definitely getting the game. Already like the look of Story mode. It reminds me, especially the bosses, of an old Bomberman game I own on Gameboy Color. I haven't played it ages.
As I saw that title, I was thinking. "How can it be strong, when people are not being able to get a switch." Than I realised it was in Japan so I immediately thought. "Of course, Japan is stealing everyone's Switch Console!"
Never knew of Fire Hopping until now. I was a pretty average player. Typically found myself in Top 4-6 in most races. Whether I knew about it or not, probably wouldn't have made a difference. It does sound like a glitch, so in the end I am glad.
I am waiting for the day when it's all about the fun and luck of the items. And not about the Karts/Bikes, Techniques and so. Mario Kart 8 was more than halfway there. I doubt the deluxe improved on that.
@Damo True risk is higher on other methods. But repetitively killing the Pig can get quite boring fast.
My first method, gave me hearts now and than. And dodging a lot of the enemies attacks is not that hard. I managed to get more than 9000 coins in 15-25mins.
Second method (updated it recently), occurs late in the game being the only downside. However it's really fast at getting coins as you can get 10000 coins in minutes. You get a big heart to restore your hearts at the end. Perfect method really.
I am not entirely sure, but I think the Switch character is slightly smaller than the Wii U character. You should be able to see this at the beginning of the race, as it's not very clear during the race.
It's rather the same as when you exit the Ganon Boar fight using a trick with the horse. Obviously during these Boss fights, some resources are unloaded.
There is much better ways to grab Fast Coins than that.
1. At the Beach, heading to the 4th Boss in the water. The first screen you encounter with the Blue Octopus. Kill all enemies on that screen should give you around 250 or more coins total. Leave and return for easy coins. Enemies typically drop around 20 coins, some around 40-50 coins, but sometimes around 80 coins is seen.
2. (Updated) Return to the chest that has the Legendary Sword. You receive around 3500 coins from it. Go back to Title Screen and reload save to repetitively get coins. If you do this with a certain weapon equipped, you'll get about half of the coins and about 3 of each Magic Item instead.
For a mock-up, that looks pretty realistic. I could literally see that in stores. Other than it's design, the games quality will most likely be lowered too. But probably not by much.
Talking about the Switches future. I could literally see a new type of dock designed to play old Wii and Wii U games. The switch console requires a linking process to the dock to play Wii U. While the Joy-Cons are subbed in to be used as the Wii Remotes. It's strange how Nintendo hasn't said anything about this though.
Never touched Battle Mode on the Mario Kart 8. Or maybe played 1 or 2 games to see the tracks. Usually don't play Battle Mode, but Shrine Thief is my favorite mode. Renegade Rampage sounds like fun. And the change to stacking bobombs in that mode sounds like it'll make it more fun than before. Can't wait until try the Battle Mode for this.
Also haven't really bothered to play 200cc a lot. So this will get me back in the need for some Mario fun.
Seemed to notice a Gold Mario. I wonder how you unlock that?
It's strange what some of the people do. As there really is usually no point to watching both the English and Japanese version trailers. You can see the Blue Goggle Robot guy at the very edge of the second strip in the video above. And maybe more is seen in the Japanese trailer, which I not going to bother to see.
I avoided getting this on the Wii U. But I will definitely get it on the Switch as I have enjoyed Rayman games. Just thinking about it recalls this old game I played and enjoyed a lot.
From the image it does look quite bulky, but it may not actually be that large. Especially if you have a quick look at your own Joy-Con. Based on it's size, its thickness may be about the same as the Wii U GamePad or a little thicker. No matter how thick it is, I don't think it will hinder it's comfortable use by much.
This is just my analysis, but not going to get anyway as I am Switch Portable all the way.
ARMs looks pretty interesting. Not sure yet if I want it yet, but going to wait and see.
Never bought Splatoon. It did interest me, but I just didn't want to get it. After watching some videos of how it can be, decided I am going to maybe pick up Splatoon 2.
So they say it's alright for an Easter Bunny or so, but not a Mario? That certainly sounds rather absurd. They got to give a good reason for not allowing the Mario or they shouldn't have been talking at all.
Eventually got a microSD card for my Switch. After turning it on with it, notice Zelda got a new patch. Haven't gotten in to explore the possible changes, but there is some glitched treasure chests that needs attention.
Started this a few days, haven't been playing this very long and yet I seem a bit far in. The only thing wrong about this game is the price. And now the Temporal Battle Arena, doesn't seem like a great idea. Just seems like an excuse to make people buy it. They could just add new areas with Bosses requiring characters to be about Lv99 to beat. I found that somewhat enjoyable in Final Fantasy.
@RedMageLanakyn Just because it has more HP, doesn't necessarily make them harder. Just takes longer to kill. Silver Lynel fights just as a White Lynel does, but has 2000 more HP. As long as you know what to do against each of it's attacks, it's not that hard to deal with.
You certainly put a lot of details in the Guardian Scouts. All you need to know, fight them with Electric Weapons/Shock Arrows. They are very effective as they short circuit the guardians stopping them from attacking, except when they turn blue and do there final attack. This doesn't seem to work with other Guardians.
Its also possibly to dodge and Flurry the Scouts when they do there rotational weapon attack. I managed to do this once or twice. Timing seems to be a dodge right before the attack hits you. Of course it's better to just avoid it.
Despite the short time, Stasis+ is pretty effective on the other Guardians. Use it, move around and they will stop targeting you for a while. I found this to be pretty effective against the Turrets as once is enough, to give enough blows to destroy it. While it's less effective against Decayed Guardians as it doesn't take long before they target you again, which can also happen to Walkers while attacking it.
As for weapons, I just use any I got. Even if it isn't one of the three types mentioned above. 3x/5x Bows are good to use against Walkers and Skywatchers.
@Braok Not a fan of Phoenix Wright series, does not look impressive to me. Xenoblade Chronicles does however, but just chose not to get into it. I was hoping to buy Xenoblade Chronicles X from eShop, but it's big game so I'll see if I can still get it from a store before buying it from the eShop. Someone said the Xenoblade Chronicles for Wii is there too, so I'll get that and play it if is there. Hope that makes your day better!
Other than I looked towards Hyrule Castle, this is the exact same method I use. Except I wait between 21:00-02:00. I spent 8 hours alone to figure out this method myself. Very effective method, but not exactly out there in my opinion.
I was hoping a mention of when the Time Trials patch is released. I have always thought since the 5th level that I could easily beat the levels within 5 minutes.
@Lalivero @Captain_Gonru Like I said, don't own it. I had no idea about that games Co-Op. I don't know why it's not on the list. Could just well be an Indies Co-Op List.
@Lalivero @DCorp I don't own Bomberman R, so I can't say much about it. But it's clearly a Vs Multiplayer game. If there is Team Vs Team option in the game, that's not Co-Op if your calling it so. Co-Op is typically 2 Players assisting each other. And that's not Bomberman R, which is why it's not on the list.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful updates. Nintendo really cares for the stable lifestyle.
Re: Review: Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap (Switch eShop)
Totally forgot this game was released on the odd day of around now. When usually releases are on Thursday-Saturday (depending on time zone).
Downloading it now. Can't wait to play it. Wanted a physical copy. But since it's less than 1GB, I guess I don't need to worry about it.
