@Dogorilla Thanks for flagging, I've added those.

@Porky Thank, added.

@Ironplushy I've added Espgaluda and Dodonpachi. Okinawa Rush isn't delisted.

@KingMike Correct, your majesty. T'has been zapped. 🙏

@AussieMcBucket "Also, John Williams!"

Yaaaaaas. Say what you like about the Star Wars prequels/sequels, but that man, that man...*starts tearing up...

@AussieMcBucket @TheBoilerman A lot of people noped out with the fridge and the ending back in the day, but to me those felt totally in keeping with all the other crazy stuff he's done/witnessed! Crystal Skull's problems are that it drags massively in the middle and CG just nukes all the peril and passion. They said they were doing it old-school before release, and the very first thing onscreen was an unconvincing CG gopher. 🙃

I enjoyed DoD. 🤷‍♂️ More quality time with Ford and I found the themes touching.

@BaldB3lper78 Unfortunately not!

@Thomystic It was time-saving in this week's case, but I want them listed too. We're going to be reworking the download format in the coming weeks, so watch this space.

@BaldB3lper78 Yes, it’s in progress.

@armfish Yep, it'll be back ASAP - just needed a last-minute nip and tuck!

Edit. Aaaand it's back.

@Dogorilla Okay, that is now in the list with a note and some appropriate edits, bringing the total up to 70. (The game wasn't ticked as 'Import Only' in our database, so lacking a NA/EU release date, the entry wasn't pulled into the article.) Thanks for flagging!

@Dogorilla That… 🙃 Let me look at that in the morning. There may be an update required!

@Lofoten Might be nice. Our Switch Top 50s since 2017 essentially do that already.

@Mello We had planned to review Darwin's, but code never came in and we had to move on to other things, unfortunately.

@Quarth All but two of those have been in previous round ups, including the Dreamer shmups which you recommended back in October '24.

I've added Lovish and Mixolumia, though.

@silver-crescent Subject to megaton news, I'm looking to run the feature on Saturday atm. So end of play Thursday at the latest.

Any recommendations that come in get saved, though, so if you send it afterwards, it may roll into the next one.

@gaga64 They just turned 5 and 7.

@Yoshi3 @Solomon_Rambling Oof, that's my fault - apologies! I somehow missed the eight-hour mention in Ken's text before scheduling and added the "five(ish)-hour" mention after asking him if HLTB's five-hour estimate was realistic. 🙃

I've removed my addition now - eight hours is 'canon'!

@BaldB3lper78 March turned out to be a busy one, so we weren't able to review this, unfortunately.

It is a vintage article, but updated and given a lick of paint with additions and revisions. Thinking about XCX, you're right, it's space-y and otherworld-y enough to earn its spot here. Added.

Hi everyone! Just a note to remember that the comments above are a few years old at this point. Carry on!

@Robot99 Got ‘em! Apologies, I’m still getting used to a new laptop. 🙃

Added CD Projekt Red's Project R.O.A.C.H. controller.

@Markiemania95 Ha, either way, that rogue apostrophe needs nuking. I've updated.

@JGruns Nope, I'd just missed ticking that as a standard cart. All Nintendo's NS2 Editions have been full physicals (so far).

I've updated the pages for that, Xenoblade X, and a couple of others.

Seeing as things are veering more off-topic as the count grows, we'll be closing the comments on this article now. Thanks to everyone who contributed constructively following our Community Rules.

@WoomyNNYes None less, I'd imagine. The percentage of people who didn't buy an iPhone because of Lightning must be vanishingly small, but that's not really the point, right?

As someone who likes to keep their consoles, being able to easily access and replace worn-out, ballooning batteries is nothing but a positive imo. It's convenient, consumer-friendly, environmentally mindful. All positives. I shouldn't have to order tri-point screwdrivers and glue-heating pads and soldering irons and google Youtube tutorials to change a bloody battery!

Edit. Yes, I know you said rhetorical.

@BaldB3lper78 You mean, could they boost existing Switch 2 games in a similar way? On Switch 3, perhaps.

@Nintendosbooger It did me remind me of TWOM as I constantly bounced from one disaster to another, /just/ scraping through and surviving each time.

@stevep Almost like they’re totally different games with different reviewers, isn’t it?

@brandonbwii Poker Night at the Inventory. And we’re working on reviews for several of these.

@eminence_grise Hmm, you're right. I've added them in and replaced the poll. Thanks for flagging.

@SViper As per the intro, every poll is open for five days. We need to close the votes so that we have a definite winner for the final poll.

Just a note that we've added Red Art Games in with the developer mentions, as Konami were only publishers on this one.

@xmkbest You’re right, I’ve adjusted that section. 🙏

@Davecobra Not on Switch.

@Friendly Thanks for flagging. I've added those and several more.

@RushDawg It's a Game-Key Card. I've just updated the post with the info, the new trailer, and some screens.

*Starts eyeing the NSO VB goggles thingy.

*Starts eyeing the old Labo VR set and hoping some cardboard 'modding' will work.

@BrianJL Googling it, I get a bunch of casino/slots rubbish coming up alongside pages detailing the unreleased game. My personal theory would be that any potential legal entanglements with random, funds-rich companies wouldn't be worth the aggro for Nintendo. Easier to just shorten the name and sidestep entirely.

I've added a mention of the variable frame rate mode in the Cons, as a reminder that it is there (as discussed in the text).

@MTMike87 I can't find a way to make multiplayer work, and there's no shared save data whatsoever. It's completely separate from NSO beyond (I'd assume) using the same ROM.

There's coffee in that nebula!

Hands are weird things and I have to say that my thumb bends like that, too. Probably down to years of picking up my kids from the floor, plus decades of analogue stick abuse.

@Pillowpants Space is at a premium in the Joys/Cons at the end, so abbreviations make sense there.

You might find a cheeky 'FTW' in a personal aside, or an 'ASAP' (or a pun in a tagline), but generally we don't use abbreviations in body text beyond common tech terms (LCD, fps) or Latin.

I don't think having to look something up is a problem, either. I learned hundreds of words from searching for them back when it wasn't as simple as a long-press or punching it into google.

Aaanyhow, great game.

@Pillowpants All the abbreviations?

YMMV is a fairly old, fairly common abbreviation and the whole site was built on a friendly tone and conversational style. LLAP 🖖

@Lord No, they're all GKCs. I'll look into getting that changed.

@Morsel I've assembled this:
https://www.nintendolife.com/guides/nintendo-switch-online-game-trials-list-latest-game-trial-dates-full-history
It should be complete, and we'll do our best to keep it up to date and republish when appropriate.

@Dr_Corndog Zapped, cheers.

@Ironcore They should all be on the database and have game pages where you can rate them (see the note in the post re. why they don’t show up in the quicklist above).

@Handy_Man Not my PAL copy. (Although my N64 is gold, so mustn't grumble!)

@AquaLeaderJesse Weird, what are they doing there? They should be gone now, thanks for flagging.

I've been looking forward to this one for ages, relieved to hear it hits the important notes!
