This info isn't very interesting. There was no way Pokemon would appear before 2018, and they never confirmed a 2018 release date, so there's nothing new here.

Nope, since my New 3DS XL is still working fine. Plus, I actually like the 3D effect.

Make it optional. Let voice chat be accessible through the console itself, and have info like Splatnet viewable on a web browser.

There's some confusion here. If the galleries, difficulty and sound tests can be unlocked normally from completing the game (but earlier on with the amiibo), then that's cool. However, if amiibo are required as well as completing the game to unlock them, then that's annoying.

Locking difficulty settings behind a paywall is always frustrating. And sound tests and galleries are usually free in games (even if effort is needed to unlock them), so charging for these does seem greedy.

Yay, they're not locking single player levels behind the amiibo paywall this time.

I'm a big fan of some visual novels, but this one doesn't interest me.

Yuck, mayo. I want Team Ketchup to win.

I'd grab Splatoon 2 if I had a Switch, but it'll be nothing for me this week.

As much as I like the legendaries, it seems like too much hassle to do the Raid Battles, especially since they'll likely be almost impossible to defeat unless you have other players helping.

So convoluted, it's not a good solution.

So ranked mode is more of the same, which is by no means a bad thing, but I would have liked to seen them add at least one new ranked mode.

Salmon mode is looking great, and will be lots of fun with friends. Single player seems like a well deserved improvement from the first game, and is the mode I'm most interested in.

The big problem for me is the rotation system. I don't like that Salmon Run and specific ranked modes are only available at certain times. If I'm in the mood for Tower Control and they only have Rain Maker available, then that sucks.

The 10 out of 10 score seems too high for this game. From what I've read so far, I would have likely gave it an 8, or maybe a 9.

I don't have any need for portable batteries, but if I did then I'd want one of those legendary bird ones.

To be honest, I'm even more excited for this list than I am for an equivalent Switch list. Pokemon Ultra S&M, Monster Hunter Stories, Etrian Odyssey V and Layton's Mystery Journey are all big games that are going to get me hyped.

This game has been in development for years, way before the Switch was ever revealed. So it makes sense on focusing on just releasing the game before considering porting it over to the Switch.

I grabbed mine yesterday. Could be worth mentioning in the title or an update to this article or a new article that it's available in Europe as well.

It's one of those series that I've been meaning to try out but never get round to it.

Okay, that's my hype crushed. I was wanting more Ultra Sun and Moon info.

I don't live anywhere near those events, so none of this is going to get me hyped up to start playing again.

If they really wanted to get more people playing, then they could have a week long event for all players where pokemon not native to your region appear.

They look nice, but I doubt that I'll bother with the steel cases. Regular cases are fine for me.

Plus, we know almost nothing about these games. It seems silly to me to preorder now when we know almost nothing about them.

I'd usually vote against Pikachu in popularity contests just because it's too popular, but in this case Pikachu deserves to win.

Brock and Misty were great. I can't see myself liking this movie anywhere near as much as the original story.

Probably nothing for me, but I'll need to have a look at that Kirby game.

I'd prefer to have all the content available at the start

That time-based limitation is frustrating.

It's better than nothing, but I'd prefer to have a website option for viewing the SplatNet info like they did with Splatoon 1. Plus, Voice Chat through a mobile app is pointlessly convoluted.

Ice Cream is much better than cake. But I'll have to keep out of this fight and hope the correct team wins, since I'm still Switchless.

It took me a long time to find a hat Pikachu last time a special one was available, so I'm not going to bother with this one.

I agree, the old one looks way better.

Super Mario Odyssey, Xenoblade and Splatoon 2 are the main 3 here that interest me.

The Switch is doing a lot better than expected, so lack of stock isn't surprising.

Hopefully things improve for them. It's good to still have a major video game store on the high street. However, GAME has a lot of issues, especially with pricing.

Cools, but I've already got most of the games I'm interested in on Virtual Console, so I doubt I'll get it.

It's not something I'd buy a SNES Classic just to play, but maybe I'd get it if it was released on Virtual Console.

This isn't filling me up with hype. Raids just seem like too much hassle. With only 1 raid pass a day, only 5 minutes to beat the boss, and the tougher bosses being almost impossible unless you're lucky to have other players turn up, it's going to be really awkward to get the good pokemon.

Looks decent, but I'm going to skip it. There's plenty of other games I'm eyeing up.

Sigh, no Rayman in the top 10.

Ever Oasis is very tempting for me. I might hold off on getting it though, as there's other games keeping me busy right now.

Great, it's something I'm looking forward to. Not sure whether I'll get it or not, as there's lots of other games I'm also wanting to play.

Is that date for the 3DS version, or for the mobile version, or both?

I'm excited for this. Once the 3DS version releases in Europe, I'll happily buy it.

That raid system sounds too complex to pull off. With only a 5 minute time limit and with it allowing up to 20 people at once, I can't imagine it'll be very likely to take down the monster unless you happen to be with a group of other players.

There's a few great games on that list, but most of them aren't doing it for me. Ever Oasis, Super Mario Odyssey, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, and Pokemon Ultra S&M are my main highlights.

I barely did any of the gyms stuffs. Finding and capturing Pokemon was the most interesting part of the game for me.

It was a little disappointing. We didn't get any gameplay for the two big surprises: Pokemon Switch and Metroid Prime 4. Most of the other games shown were ones we already knew about.

That's disappointing that they removed the overworld from IV and went back to having a huge dungeon. I'm still hyped for this game.

10 fighters is a bit on the low side, so it's good that this game will eventually get more characters.

Give it up, Pokemon Stars is not happening.

Layton games are great. If they start releasing Layton exclusively for the Switch, then I'm going to be more tempted to pick up a Switch.

As long as Comcept doesn't mess things up with Level 5, I'm not bothered either way.

This is a big blow for the Switch. Lack of a Western Monster Hunter release for it is going to make me more hesitant to get a Switch.

I'm probably still going to get Monster Hunter World and have lots of fun with it. However, XX looks great too and I would have loved to play that if and when I get a Switch. But there's no way I'm going to play XX in Japanese.

Just the Devilish Brain Training demo for me this week.
