@ElRoberico not to mention if Xbox did a 180 and went exclusive again, that would totally fly in the face of their “we want all gamers to experience all games” rhetoric they were blabbering on about for so long.
I can’t think of one company out there, in gaming or not that I trust less than MS.
@SilverM yes maybe my comment was a little harsh or it’s my tastes that have changed as opposed to their output.
I just miss the days of wanting almost all their games as opposed to now barely wanting any. DK and MP were superb but other than that I’ve played most other games either on ps5 or as switch 1 versions.
I just want games please Miyamoto. For my tastes the release schedule for switch 2 is looking really thin. Where’s the variety of releases we used to get?
Keep your pikmin cheeseburgers or whatever you plan, give me games please.
“The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: Nintendo 3DS Remake of Nintendo 64 Original Nintendo Switch 2 Edition plus Escape from Furore’s Wind & Goron’s Goodies DLC”
Played this on ps5 and throughly enjoyed it! Feel the comment about poor enemy design is a bit unfair in the review though. Especially the bosses which I thought were excellent.
@Rahmus agreed. Feels like there’s been too much reliance on switch 2 editions.
Not to mention the much more expensive hardware and game prices haven’t helped sales. I doubt Nintendo are massively surprised with this news considering.
@RupeeClock yes if it becomes user replaceable that will mean potentially either a bigger chassis for the same battery life or the same chassis with lesser battery.

Re: Hands On: Is Final Fantasy VII Rebirth's Switch 2 Port The Most Ambitious Yet?
@Jeronan how else would you have suggested SE dealt with remaking FF7 if not by using open world areas?
Re: Rumour: A Metroid Movie May Become A Reality As Two Studios Battle For Rights
This would be sweet!
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (25th April)
TOTK for me after somehow waiting all this time to finish it off! Loving it and can’t wait for a new Zelda!
Re: Poll: Do You Think Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced Will Sail Onto Switch 2?
@Pillowpants wasn't being pedantic, just wasn't sure if you understood what you were saying as many people say that erroneously. No drama.
Re: Xbox Is Reportedly Having "Very Big Discussions" About Exclusivity
Another week, another Microsoft strategy. Honestly I find this all a little embarrassing on their behalf.
Re: Poll: Do You Think Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced Will Sail Onto Switch 2?
@Pillowpants you could care less? Which means that you’re bothered to some extent.
Or you “couldn’t care less” so in other words couldn’t give a ****?
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Professor Layton And Pandora's Box
Not a massive fan of any of them this week!
Re: Rumour: Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced Reportedly Locks In Release Date
Always thought this was a superb pirate game but a terrible AC game.
Re: Call Of Duty Movie Sets Its Sights On A 2028 Release
@PlatinumTour yes that’s what I was thinking.
Re: Digital Foundry Delivers Its Tech Review Of Pragmata On Switch 2
@johnedwin they really need to add extra hair spray during development.
Re: Vampire Crawlers Switch 2 Listing Pops Up On eShop
Lived survivors but for some reason not too excited about this one.
Also what’s with all these damn 5000 character game titles these days is driving me bonkers!

@acNewUpdates thanks for the explanation, much appreciated!

Re: Xbox Is Reportedly Having "Very Big Discussions" About Exclusivity
@metaphysician while I don’t disagree, Xbox have had mostly 4 generations with exclusive games and arguably only one of those was a decent success.
Re: Xbox Is Reportedly Having "Very Big Discussions" About Exclusivity
It honestly feels like Xbox just make stuff up as they go. Clueless.
Either way I hope a Forza makes its way to switch 2 at some point. It sold very well on PS5 so am surprised it hasn’t already happened.
Re: Review: Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream (Switch) - BREAKING NEWS: Mii Life Is Still Bizarre, Hilarious, And A Bit Samey
Are Pokemon Pokopia and this similar to Animal Crossing or not so much?
Re: Talking Point: If The Star Fox Rumours Are True, Where The Heck's Our Captain Toad Sequel?
I'd love a Captain Toad 2 almost as much as I'd love a new Pushmo. (or even the OG Pushmo on Switch would do)
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting Pragmata For Switch 2?
Good to see switch 2 has pricing parity with PS/Xbox for a change which is as it should be.
I’ll still be picking this up on ps5 in this instance though.

Re: Feature: A Look Back At Every Game Nintendo Life Scored 10/10 Over 20 Years

Re: Video: 12 Exciting New Games Coming To Switch 1 & 2 In April 2026
Darwin’s Paradox is very cool!
Looking forward to Pragmata also.
Re: Best Nintendo Switch Short Games
Wow this could’ve been titled “7/10 games worth checking out”
Anyway def some in there I’ll look into…
Re: Talking Point: What Are You Playing This Weekend? (4th April)
Gone back to Tears of the Kingdom on Switch 2 after giving up on it quite early when it originally cmae out.
Enjoying it much more this time round!
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give The Super Mario Galaxy Movie?
There seems to be a lot of “it was bad, but I enjoyed it” comments 😂
Re: Random: Jack Black Jokingly Suggests A Third Mario Movie Will Arrive In 2029
I mean let’s face it - it’d be less surprising if it didn’t.

Keep your pikmin cheeseburgers or whatever you plan, give me games please.
Re: So, Will you Be Watching The Super Mario Galaxy Movie?
Yeah going Sunday but after the first film not massively excited. Hope it has more of a story than the first.
Re: PS5 Gets An Insane Price Increase – Will Nintendo Follow Suit?
Making my day 1 pro look better value all the time! Crazy world.
If you’re in the market for a ps5 this week is the time to buy before the price hikes take effect next.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo's 2026 Plans Include New Star Fox & Zelda Remake, No 3D Mario
@hcfwesker lol wasn’t that space world 2001 or something?

“The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time: Nintendo 3DS Remake of Nintendo 64 Original Nintendo Switch 2 Edition plus Escape from Furore’s Wind & Goron’s Goodies DLC”
Re: Rumour: Nintendo's 2026 Plans Include New Star Fox & Zelda Remake, No 3D Mario
I hope ocarina is a proper remake which is what it deserves, especially seeing as many of us played the OG and 3DS versions.
Would be nice for Nintendo to have a few surprises up their sleeve for the rest of the year too, like a new wave race or pushmo.

Re: Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker Has Received A Small Patch Today
Would love some more levels for this or even a better a sequel!

Re: Epic Games Cuts Over 1,000 Jobs Weeks After Raising Fortnite V-Bucks Prices
The corporate world at its worst.
Re: Nintendo's Apparently Cutting US Switch 2 Output After Lower Than Expected Holiday Sales
@Rahmus agreed. Feels like there’s been too much reliance on switch 2 editions.
Not to mention the much more expensive hardware and game prices haven’t helped sales. I doubt Nintendo are massively surprised with this news considering.
Re: Japanese Teens Apparently Love Nintendo Switch More Than Pokémon & Disney
@AdolXCredo @Anti-Matter ah ok thank you, sounds good, I’ll definitely check it out if I ever get to Japan!
Re: Japanese Teens Apparently Love Nintendo Switch More Than Pokémon & Disney
@AdolXCredo what is Daiso?
Re: Hands On: Nintendo's My Mario Toy Series Is Cute, But Offers Mixed Value For Your Little Ones
£114 for a few printed wooden blocks is insane whether they’re good quality or not and let’s face it you’d expect them to be for that price.
Re: Nintendo Remains Tight-Lipped About Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Future
@Anti-Matter shame I didn’t know that 😤
Re: Nintendo Remains Tight-Lipped About Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Future
A new AC would be nice but I miss the days when Nintendo took more risks and we got smaller projects like Dillon’s rolling western, Pushmo etc.
For the life of me I can’t understand why the latter isn’t even on switch.
Re: Europe Might Be Forcing Nintendo To Revise The Switch 2
@RupeeClock yes if it becomes user replaceable that will mean potentially either a bigger chassis for the same battery life or the same chassis with lesser battery.
Re: Shenmue III Enhanced Is Coming To Switch 2, Physical Editions Confirmed
@KennDogg yeah because of the 64gb cart versus cheap disc.
Re: Shadow Tactics Sneaks Onto Switch 2 With A New Launch Trailer
Will pick this up on switch 2 over ps5 because of the mouse controls. Looks superb!

Oh bless Nintendo trying to drum up some excitement for a feature we were all using 20 years ago elsewhere
Re: "It Probably Went Too Far" - Even Bananza's Creators Think One Transformation Is Overpowered
@Maxz you know you can play the game normally and then reset the land layout in the map options? Could then go crazy once you’re ready…?
Re: "It Probably Went Too Far" - Even Bananza's Creators Think One Transformation Is Overpowered
It is overpowered but damn it’s fun!
