Tales of the Abyss is my favorite because it's the only one I've played. Adored it on 3DS. Hoping to get an HD remaster soon.

The name of the series kinda limits the setting of the game. Can Luigi's Mansion take place in anything other than a mansion? Are we stuck exploring mansions forever?

SplatFesting all weekend! Go Team White Ink!

It's about time for this game to go on sale. It's been $60 long enough. I'd love to get it with a voucher, but of course, it's not eligible.

Even though I have one voucher still sitting on my account, I will get this physically. I want the game case.

@N00BiSH I was disappointed that you didn't continue the play on words when you said Rare. I kept reading hoping this was a Donkey Kong pun analogy with throwing DK developer names in. Would have felt so Retro.

Discovering the Special World felt like I was doing something illegal back in the day. It was amazing.

Even though I'm getting all three games, I'm most excited for XCX DE. I adore that game so much.

A Mega Man 12 would be nice.

Expected the same rating as before.

This had me thinking that an HD remake was announced for Switch. Thanks for the false hope, Nintendo Life.

Love the subtitle for the article

I'd love an HD remaster of 3D Land. Easily one of the best final boss sequences in the series with the chase.

We all know that white chocolate will win because we're mostly immature dude bros on the internet with our minds in the gutter.

Still getting this on Switch. I will not betray my love for the first game with jumping ship to the PS4.

He's right. The leakers ruined all surprises with this announcement. My YouTube feed was constantly flooded with leak information from AndreasRestart, RGT85, and SunbroNation.

It's a shame the leaks ruined any surprise element for this reveal.

We're all underwhelmed by this reveal because of the leaks. That's what we get for eating up any Switch 2 news that came across the internet. The regular casual audience will be the only ones surprised by this reveal.

@MergonTheShade That's what GameXplain and Digital Foundary is for.

I'll be buried in so much Xenoblade Chronicles X DE gameplay to even worry about any Switch 2 Direct.

Hopefully this comes to Switch 2.

Would be nice if this was on the Switch 2 eShop. By the way, where's our announcement for the reveal trailer happening tomorrow?

I think the price and removing Retro Studios from the credits has created a sudden hate for the game. It's really a fantastic game for what you get. 8 full worlds plus a 9th bonus world from the 3DS version.

If this is a standard practice, why are people surprised?

@Dr_Corndog We already have a Wii.

Might catch it during one of Nintendo's famous 30% off first party sales that come around Black Friday or Mario Day.

Thanks for the reminder as I witness sleet and freezing rain fall outside my window. Splatfest fits the seasonal occasion just perfectly.

I like that Batman Begins subtitle reference!

Might pick it up on sale later

I play primarily docked on Switch. With a bigger screen and bigger form factor to hold on to, I'll probably play Switch 2 undocked more often.

@Tyranexx Throw your backlog to the side and dive in to this game on launch day. You'll love it.

@Rob3008 It's similar. It's an art selection, cool down, recharge, repeat combat system with combos, buffs, and debuffs sprinkled in. Don't go into this game thinking it's turn-based or hack 'n' slash. I think that's what people are most disappointed in with the combat system. Don't just run into battle and start button mashing on arts because it won't work.

The font in the user interface is the best upgrade. We can actually read it. That last few seconds of the trailer shows new areas to explore. Looking forward to that.

@Uncle_Franklin Love that movie!

Never use the joy cons let alone the wrist straps. Pro Controller in TV mode all the way.

@Bolt_Strike Tell that to the snow levels that had stupid yodeling sounds. Complete trash compared to the SNES version.

Pokemon Let's Go Espeon and Let's Go Umbreon confirmed!

Can't wait to travel back to Johto

Nintendo losing those exclusive publisher rights again

I really hope all the leaked images and info is a huge marketing scheme. Nintendo let this stuff leak to mislead us into thinking it's real. Then they reveal something completely different and cause even more mass hysteria. This is easily the best way to get us hyped and talking about it, creating buzz and stock market surges.

@IceEarthGuard Don't create any.

Looking forward to quite a few of these.

Not very "engaging" huh?

Heck yeah! Handheld PS4 Pro, here we come!

I was expecting franchise anniversaries in this article, not specific games.

I somehow missed this article back in April, but I was thinking about this concept last week of being able to map out key moments based on Pokemon generation releases. Elementary school was 1st gen, middle school was 2nd gen, high school was 3rd gen, college was 4th gen, and adult life was 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th. I can remember what I was doing in life based on which Pokemon games were new at the time.

Asta la veesta, bay-bee!

Team Money! The logical choice.

Ready for them to introduce Amy and Blaze!

I'm ready to see it.
