@Diowine I think the majority of the games I have scored (which I haven't done in a long time for the most part) are in line with what most people would think. To me Metroid Prime is a 10, as are Mario Odyssey and Wind Waker and I would put Shining Pearl up there as well while I would put the Persona games as a 1 because they are simply some of the worst games I have played on Switch alongside Disco Elysium.

@MegaMari0 I don't doubt some people like it but I have met plenty of people, offline and online, who have found it to be a massively over-hyped let down. A few witty lines and some edgy subject matter doesn't make it a ground breaking narrative and the game itself is mostly a slog to play through.

Personally, I could never see Nintendo signing off on Game Pass coming to their hardware, not when it is damaging to both them as a company and the wider industry in the long term.

@Joeynator3000 is it not on NSO?

This reads more like a paid for ad for the franchise than it does a review.

Don't want to diss on what other people do for fun, its their time after all, but I will never understand cosplay or why some people are so in to it.

One of my all time favourite games, the UK cover may not be spectacular but its deeply nostalgic for me so its earns my vote.

I don't think anyone really cares to be honest. Also, broken?? Anything to get that 'Nintendo cutting corners again' engagement amirite.

So Nintendolife is now just picking random commentary from the internet for these review rounds ups now??

@Vexx234 I would say it's niche compared to a lot of Nintendo's other franchises and the fact it is motion based as well but I thought there would be more interest than what we have seen. If you are looking for a good starting point then Move It is ideal. Also, 100% on board with the return of platforming Wario.

It's a shame to see WarioWare: Move It not really lighting up the sales charts, I understand its a niche title but it's way better than Get It Together and I had hoped a strong reception would have meant we would see more of these motion based games from Nintendo in the future.

It's a great game and at £35 this would have flown off the shelves.

Super Paper Mario and Thousand Year Door are both my favourites but I haven't played a bad Mario led rpg to be fair.

The fact that the game can't even be finished because of a bug is ridiculous, that should surely have been a priority. Sadly typical of indie developers these days.

No interest in supporting any studio that will give the likes of Kapernick a platform.

High praise from who, a man who clearly doesn't know a thing about games and will lead the Xbox brand to another distant third in sales??

If I wanted to play a Paper Mario like game I will just play Paper Mario games

@RavenFellBlade I see drama queens are not limited to developers of 20 year old games and writers at Nintendo news sites.

The Prime developers who made a big deal about this ended up looking like a bunch of drama queens. This article isn't much better.

Colin Kaepernick at centre stage?? I was interested but no way I would support any game that could end up funding his political activities.

Sonic fans are really mad?? There's a surprise.

This looks like a massive improvement on Sonic Mania, really looking forward to it.

This looks like an improvement on both Sonic Mania as well as most of everything else they have done with with franchise over the last few years and I'm excited for it. Arzest have made some good games over the years even if Balan was a massive letdown, I'm glad they are being given a chance with Sonic.

I was under the impression that Nintendo Life didn't factor pricing into its review scores. Regardless the game looks great, look forward to trying it out sometime.

Given the current political situation I find both this video and article tone deaf. People like to wheel out the whole 'it's the government' excuse but there are millions of everyday people supporting this genocidal war.

I feel like you would enjoy Anodyne if you haven't already played it.

Looks like a generic indie brawler with no imagination. Hard pass.

Mipha made me feel very uncomfortable sexually so I couldn't, in all good consciousness, vote for her.

I just don't care and I don't think mamy do to be fair.

@nimnio 100% agree. Its cringy and embarrassing watching middle aged men try and get attention two decades later off of the back of their old work rather than doing something new that's relevant in 2023. I say let this new team have their chance to enjoy the spotlight. Crediting is getting ridiculous.

I think that's a lovely tribute.

An incredible discovery and a hugely important recreation?? I would be interested to know why this is so??

Muh community muh preservation etc

The ads I have been seeing everywhere for this made me cringe.

Like many others I lost interest in the first one quickly and while the art in this sequel is no doubt nice I'm getting tired of this whole aesthetic.

Looks awful and doubt the game will have much substance, like the ad though.

They should invite some Smash pros to the schools to help promote the league and... oh wait... never mind.

The fact so many of these games are a 9/10 says a lot about the quality of reviews on this site.

@Lizuka I'm not defending them at all, just don't see what the big deal is with a few dollars on top.

Imagine getting so worked up over an extra $10.

Finally got around to this recently only to find it was a bit disappointing. The Messenger is probably the best indie retro inspired platformer I have played, would love to see it get the same treatment.

This is one of the best retro collections i have ever played, really enjoying myself with it.

In the grand scheme of things it is just a cake, not exactly what I would be judging the experience on.

Nothing wrong with the 2DS, it's simple but sometimes that can make a nice contrast to some of the shower models, look at the Mario Red and Blue Switch, sometimes some iconic colours are all you need.

I bought this and i really am enjoying it a lot. The multiplayer will hopefully add a few hours but so far I feel the quality justifies the price.

Another example of an indie game that claimed it was going to give fans what they have been calling out for but only ended up showing they lack the skill to actually deliver. Truth is no one does it quite like Nintendo do.

Lock up your daughters, Smash is coming to town.
