I got excited when this game was announced to be coming over to the west and I was like "I'M GOING TO GET THIS GAME"

Aaaand I never did. Didn't have the time. I need to get it at some point.

I knew it was Illustrator Pikachu before I even clicked on the article, only a card of that caliber could sell for that much, but for some reason I only thought 6 of them ever existed. Nice to hear there are more out there.

Songs that sound like other songs is my guilty pleasure so this is pretty top notch.

Charizard: I sleep
Long Meowth and Floofy Eevee: Real stuff?
Fatachu: ASCENDED

Seems relevant.

Ah, shame no House of the Dead 3. That game broke my OG Xbox controller from spamming the trigger so hard.

When you hit the cap for playtime, Miyamoto comes to your house and tells you to go outside.

I'd say the Tweet is just a coincidence, but the randomly placed fruit is a LITTLE too suspect to just be a coincidence.

It will be interesting to see the attendance numbers here given the flak Sword and Shield have been getting so far. But honestly, given how good the comp system seems to be in game, as long as the process for obtaining a competitively viable Pokemon isn't too difficult in this gen, I'm sure the attendance won't change.

Slow news day huh.

Oh good! I've been interested for a while but not had the money to get it, a Demo will help me decide if I like it or not.

Really torn between getting the PC version for better performance or the Switch version for the Enhanced features. Hope the Demo comes to the west cause I'd really like to try it.

Monkey Ball Fans: YAY!

Animal Crossing Fans: YAY!

F-Zero Fans: furious crying

Ok, my head hurts. Did the host give the clues out? Or did the guy just randomly give Witch and Princess as clues? Because there was an old UK show called Terrahawks that had a Witch character called Zelda in it that came out in 1983 (One year after this show aired apparently) So for him to name 2 clues like that is... just alien like...

I'm vaguely interested, but I imagine this will be heavy on MTX. But considering I enjoy Pocket Camp without having to use MTX, it might be ok.

Well duh of course it's one for in house game cap-

Oh

I was just caught by clickbait wasn't I.

Welp, guess this is the first time since Diamond and Pearl i won't be buying a mainline series Title.

Tickets to the hype train are now on sale. Prepare to board this weekend!

Considering how detailed the Stage Builder is this time...

It's going to get much worse

I'll keep an eye on this. This reminds me of the plastic cases you could put your DS Lite in. Tickle my nostalgia bell.

I hate the fact that people are bashing this simply because of how similar it is to a Nintendo Direct. The bimonthly to quarterly showcases are so much better than a huge info dump at E3 every year (Not that I think E3 is bad).

I'm glad other companies are taking this route.

I'd say it's simply a coincidence.

Aw man my reply didn't get mentioned.

I kid though. When I scrolled past this tweet yesterday I had to do a double take. I thought it was quite funny.

Oh and yeah another Nintendo Direct would be cool. I'm not as hardcore into Animal Crossing as some people are, but even I have to admit a release date would be cool, but something tells me they might be saving it for E3.

This is just a view from somebody who doesn't understand how censorship works, but I really do find it odd how something a little as this gets taken down, but a game like SENRAN KAGURA Reflexions is completely OK. A little accidental nudity VS straight up massaging and caressing various scantily clad anime ladies with the joycons. Seems heavily one sided.

Rarely does anything invoke a verbal reaction from me.

That Fatality made me release one very loud "OOOOOOH"

Good guy Nintendo, but in this economy, Micro transactions are nearly as ubiquitous as DLC. I don't remember where I heard this from, but if these AAA titles didn't have MC's in them, their retail price would be 10/20 pounds/dollars more than they already are. It's no wonder Nintendo game still have high retail prices even if they have been out for years.

I'm not saying this is a bad thing though. Less MC's are always great, but I don't know how long it will last.

If Game Pass comes to Switch then yeah, we are going to need much more storage.

I don't think this means we will see any Xbox Excusive on Switch, I think this simply means any GamePass games that are already on Switch could be downloaded if you have GamePass

This would actually be really good for me. Means I'd have to invest in a new Sim Card

Edit: Banjo for Smash also look more and more likely

I imagine we will get the release date for Joker and maybe the 2nd Character for the Fighter Pass

Other than more added to the online service, I don't have much I'm really looking for at the moment. I just hope for some neat surprises

"Future Business Shift Could See Nintendo Move Away From Home Console Development"

Me: It would be cool to see the power of legitimate Nintendo Titles on PC.

"And increase the amount of games on smartphones"

Also Me: Aaaaaaw drat.

I've said it once and I'll say it again. I am all for some Dragon Quest rep, but rumours are rumours and I'll remain excited for whoever is announced.

Is it supposed to be a straight up remake? Considering how timeless the original movie was, it's going to be interesting to see how they do it.

She's grown too powerful

She must be stopped

Holy crap

I was thinking literally the other day "Wouldn't it be dope if they added a Dragon Quest Character as a fighter in Smash"

As always, salt will be taken, but I certain won't be upset if this turns out to be true.

Considering I'll only be picking up smash next week, I'll be playing Let's Go

"Nintendo Life will remain a Smash Ultimate leak-free zone"

or more precisely

"Nintendo Life wants to maintain good relations with Nintendo and NOT risk multiple strikes akin to the Youtube channels currently being shut down for leaking the soundtrack"

I'll make joke so you don't have to.

Where's his Master Sword? ;P

looks over at wallet, it is engulfed in flames

Welp

Well, whatever this is, I looks a hell of a lot better than that trash of a phone game.

Eeeeeh this ain't that easy to figure out just like that.

It looks like that it could be Magalor or Taranza, but those were slated for Wave 3.

Either way I'm looking forward to what's to come.

On further thought about this and reading the replies, I think this may be a good thing in some regard. If all Retro games are available for "Free" under the subscription service then it saves us from having to buy the title again and again for each system.

People will emulate, people will homebrew, it's inevitable, but we can't look away from all the great titles coming in the future just because of this one blip.

Huh.

So, I assume that means the classic games are only available to those who pay the subscription.

I'm... not sure how to react. I mean, I've never really cared all that much for Virtual Console, I only ever bought a few titles. But... why? Why not bring Virtual Console to the Switch? Just so they can lock it behind a Subscription based paywall?

I'm interested to see what will result from this.

loud gasp Ooooh, I'm so surprised

No but really. I really liked BotW but the dungeons lacked really heavily. If the next title had more and better dungeons and maintained the open world style, it would be perfect

I'll be picking up Hyrule Warriors... AGAIN... when I get the chance. I sold off my Wii U and never really cared to much for the 3DS version so being able to play it on console again with all of the content will be great.

The game does have A LOT of content and yes, it can get very repetitive as a lot of the scenarios are just "Go here, side with this dude, maybe side with this dude I don't know" but I've always felt it's repetition with reward. You might not be able to get what you want on your first run but you are still given materials and EXP for doing it so it's not all a loss.

The one thing I'm hoping for is for them to NOT add any more DLC, I bought both games on the Wii U and 3DS and the season passes for both, I would be upset if they added more DLC.

Unless it's Byrne from Spirit Tracks then GIMME GIMME GIMME

Star Allies is my first every Kirby Game but I have some knowledge about past Kirby Games.

Adeleine is the Kirby 64 representative and all I'm thinking is what music is going to be used for the battle against the final boss in Guest Star Allies for her?

02 Remix intensifies

Normal Shinies have sort of lost their value over the past few games. It would be nice to see a new level or rarity if this is for the Switch Title

I'm not going to let any rumors shape my thoughts about the game, until we see official information (The Magazine mentioned has apparently given false information in the past, from what I've heard).

This will be the first ever Mainline Pokemon Title on a console so it will be interesting to see what they can do with it. I've been with the series since Gold and Silver, I hope this won't be the end of it.

To be fair, it's not entirely out of the realm of possibility. Cloud and Bayonetta were hardly top Nintendo Characters but made it in due to popularity and the Ballot, and had only just started appearing on the Wii U (To my knowledge)

Basically, anybody is eligible for the roster as long as they are popular and have a presence of some kind on the Switch. Nobody is safe from the Smash Roster... looks at Sans ... N O B O D Y

Grandad, your enjoying that just a little bit too much.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES
