"The name's 7. 47."

"I prefer my targets shaken AND stirred."

Hard Man.

Enough said.

I'm guessing it'll be a detailed Kanto world map.

And not a Discworld reference in sight. Quite odd.

Just in time. I've been looking for a Switch city-builder that would entice me enough to purchase for quite some time now. Looks like this is it.

You can complain all you want, but you're still buying their products.

Don't like how they conduct their business? Grow a spine and do a complete boycott. Nintendo is not an essential business, so you'll be fine.

Does it run smoothly now, or will that not be until the Switch 2?

Nearing the end of Super Mario 3D World, so I'll soon be moving on to Bowser's Fury soon. In between rounds of that, I've been playing Dredge: Complete Edition, which I just recently got.

Great set of games, each one a palate cleanser for the other.

I'm liking the redesign. THIS is Donkey Kong now.

@Zufolobelisk Whoosh.

Sonic in Mario Kart World confirmed.

The new open-world feature was never going to please everybody. I for one am excited to drive through the world they created.

Sakura, Makoto, Eleven, and Cody. Oh, and Dudley.

A man can dream, eh?

Do they even have a case, though? Voices can easily be copied by talented voice actors even without AI use. Can a certain voice tone even be copyrighted?

I might be the only one, but I hope it can be played in third-person view.

It looks good enough to market on its own, but it had to go all "Mario-inspired" despite it looking almost nothing like a Mario game.

Maybe we can celebrate the 30th anniversary of the series by releasing a game that allows the use of ALL the monsters?

A guy can dream.

A little late to the party, but thanks to the goading of my children I finally got a physical copy of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. An excellent pair of games, and a great way to wash away the grit and grime after playing several rounds of Guilty Gear Strive (learning the intricacies of Elphelt, A.B.A, and Queen Dizzy).

I don't know. Couldn't those same publishers just go fully digital in that case?

I was hoping Mario Kart 8 Deluxe would be in the list, but upgrades to SM3W+BF are welcome too.

I've never bought a Nintendo console worrying about the framerate. As long as the game's not game-breakingly stuttery it's fine.

It's usually first-party games that I get physical copies of anyway, so this is fine.

Ensuring that you drift in style.

They'll start by remaking FF7 around twelve more times, while ignoring the other numbered games in the series.

I enjoy some Hayter in my games, but sorry, I play Yakuza games in Japanese the same way that I play Prince of Persia in Persian. Immersion.

If Wilds isn't released on the Switch 2 I'm going to punch a Khezu in the mouth.

This is amazing. It makes me want to get a Switch 2 all the more. Maybe even go back to playing Switch Borderlands!

I agree. Wart would make an excellent Bowser rival.

I've been into open-world games lately, so I've been juggling Sniper Elite 4 and Red Dead Redemption along with some quick bursts of Android Balatro and Wildfrost on the side.

Or... hear me out...

... don't buy tasteless slop.

As Marcus Aurelius once said, "Do every act of your life as though it were the very last act of your life."

It should have the option to hide certain developers or publishers, or a similar filtering option. Take a page from Deku Deals' playbook, Nintendo.

They walk backwards when moving north. The little things matter too.

I open it every day mainly to see the day's short calendar animation. The occasional news and other things are just extra, but still appreciated.

EA: The Game is Not in.

It's lubricated by the collected tears of stick drift victims.

I never experienced problems with the weapons breaking in both BOTW and TOTK, though I always wished they'd at least let Link use his fists once he runs out of weapons.

I'm good with Double Dribble.

With their muscles trained for these exact movements, I wouldn't be surprised to see players who actually use wheelchairs excelling in this game... which may have been one of Nintendo's plan with this one.

Even with my history of weight training and Ring Fit Adventure, I don't think my wrists and arms would last a round of this.

They'll drift, but feel good while doing it.

No FOMO, no scalpers.

We gamers fed these monsters. Starving them is the only way to truly get rid of them.

I've known enough gamers in my lifetime to know that's never going to happen though.

So we know its scale... but can it migrate?

If it can do four-player split-screen at a stable 60 FPS, I'm already a happy man.

@johnedwin I don't recall Nintendo saying you'll be charged on top of what you already pay for NSO if you use the C Button... unless I'm not getting what you're trying to say.

I can see what's next now: Dreamcast on NSO.

Don't have $10? Then quit yowling, don't buy the game, and read about the secrets on Reddit.

If you have to demand for things to be free, then maybe this pastime isn't for you.

For those who won't shell out for the online service, the C stands for "cheapskate."

@ibookboyuk Everybody knows you pronounce it as "jraphic."

Considering how long they took, I'm sure they already have a general idea how many people would most likely buy the hybrid and stock accordingly. I'm not worried.

They doomed themselves the moment they asked for money.
