Seeing it with my bestie at midday tomorrow. Using Meerkat movies so only £3 each at my local VUE. Kids don't break up for Easter Holidays until Thursday so I can enjoy it whilst it isn't too busy.
Gonna pick up a couple of Yoshi popcorn buckets too. 😊
Played 30 minutes of Wario so far. It's good. Cardboard VB nicely made but haven't worked out my best playing position yet as joy cons still attached was awkward after a while.
It did hurt my brain though so will take my time playing through everything.
Was very odd hearing them explain what a Mii is. Very 2007. And no mention of importing your Mii that has been sitting on your Switch doing nothing since 2017 (when it was transferred over from the WiiU).

Re: Dive Into The Pages Of Yoshi And The Mysterious Book In This New Overview Trailer
Not watched the trailer to not spoil any creatures until I play the game.
Guessing it'll be quite a short game but as I sell mine upon completion it's not too bad.

@JackieCMarlow
Don't worry, NintendoLife articles will be written by AI soon too. Most of the comments as well.
Re: Feature: Our Top Ten Favourite Easter Eggs In The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
I thought the giant goombas were another Super Mario Bros 3 reference (world 4).
Did you spot Samus' Ship?
Re: Random: Jack Black Jokingly Suggests A Third Mario Movie Will Arrive In 2029
2029 is highly likely though.
Perfect time to introduce Wario and WaLuigi. Odyssey a possibility as they need to build something to allow them to visit Rosalina easily.
Apart from King Boo have we seen normal boo's yet? Luigi's Mansion spin off is a must too (hopefully not just that reference in the 1st film).
Re: Movie Review: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie - A Faithful But Overstuffed Sequel
I thought it was great.
Re: Gallery: We Weren't Prepared For The Sheer Size Of Yoshi's Popcorn Bucket
It's a great piece of merchandise but doesn't hold much popcorn.
The Lumas looked good too, especially as my VUE had lit them up inside with LEDs.
No budget or space for them though.
Re: Nintendo Will Be "Absolutely Furious" About Latest Leaks, Says Former PR Manager
The OOT remake rumour has been a thing for a few years now. One reason why i haven't played the n64 version on the expansion pak yet.

Re: Mario Kart World Has Been Updated To Version 1.6.0, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
Looking forward to the 2.0 update in June for it's 1st Anniversary. 😬
Re: PSA: Switch 2's "GameChat Welcome Offer" Ends This Month, Try It Out For Free While You Still Can
I'll use it on Splatoon 4 I guess.
Re: PS5 Gets An Insane Price Increase – Will Nintendo Follow Suit?
Well they did sell the PS5 with £100 discount at most retailers in the UK at Christmas. So gotta make that money back now. 🤣
Nintendo should hold the Switch 2 price but increase the Switch 1 price. Might make more jump on board.
They should retire the Switch 1 standard version at some point soon though.
Re: Rumour: Nintendo's 2026 Plans Include New Star Fox & Zelda Remake, No 3D Mario
If true I'll happily take Star Fox and OOT this year. If they delay Mario to 2027 that is fine too.
Re: Fox McCloud Blasts Into The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@N00BiSH Or just a Star Fox movie.
Wonder if Samus' ship will fly past in a scene too.
Re: Fox McCloud Blasts Into The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
Thanks for the spoiler.
All for clicks I guess.
Are you going to give away the whole plot in detail on Wednesday then straight after you have seen it? Or have you not got your tickets yet?
I'm glad I'm able to watch it on the 1st in the morning.
Re: Sonic The Hedgehog 4's Full Movie Cast List Has Been Revealed
I hope Jim Carrey still looks like Jim Carrey and not the clone that was at that recent awards ceremony in spain. 👀😬
Re: Nintendo Shows Off Icon Design Proposals For Switch 2's 'C' Button
I still haven't got round to using it. Maybe when Splatoon 4 is out.
Re: Yoshi Popcorn Bucket Announced For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
For UK peeps. It is £20 and available at VUE from 1/4. No popcorn purchase necessary.
For Odeon you can pre-order from 17/3 but has to be done as a combo with Popcorn and Drink. (So most likely £40 🤣).
Re: Yoshi And The Mysterious Book Lands Switch 2 Release Date
I definitely want to play it but I'm getting Yoshi's Story vibes as to how long this game will be.
Also allowing you to name the creatures is a nice touch. I name you 'Felcher'. 😁
Re: Yoshi Popcorn Bucket Announced For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@BleakStuff
Unfortunately NL seem to report things after everyone else these days.
Re: Yoshi Popcorn Bucket Announced For The Super Mario Galaxy Movie
@Uncle_Franklin Odeon and Cineworld so far.
It's meant to be $100 in the USA so who knows what it'll be here.
Re: Reminder: Resident Evil's Generation Pack Is Leaving The Switch 2 eShop This Month
Is the physical bundle a limited edition worldwide then or just the USA?
Re: UK Charts: Resident Evil Requiem Switch 2 Sales Comparable To Cyberpunk 2077
Apparently the Generation Pack physical key card version is a limited run so get it while you can people.
Re: Pokémon Winds & Waves Will Be Released "Exclusively" For Switch 2
The trailer I watched had the switch 2 logo on it. Not sure how people missed it.
No doubt Pokémon Fart and Piss will look great but have the same dull gameplay.
Re: He-Man's Arcade-Style Retro Brawler Locks In A Release Date For Switch
Looking forward to this. I did enjoy He-Man as a child.
Secretly hoping this paves the way for someone to give Thundercats the same love.
Re: Review: The Disney Afternoon Collection (Switch 2) - A Delightful Yet Difficult '90s Throwback
Lovely playing Duck Tales 35 years later. Using my SNES pad as the Pro 2 dpad is sh*te.
I noticed in the gallery we get the box art for the GameBoy versions along with the posters. I wonder if they'll get added at some point as free dlc?
Re: Review: The Disney Afternoon Collection (Switch 2) - A Delightful Yet Difficult '90s Throwback
@SillyG Gameshare.
Re: Review: The Disney Afternoon Collection (Switch 2) - A Delightful Yet Difficult '90s Throwback
Duck Tales and Rescue Rangers were the ones I completed numerous times as a kid.
Looking forward to getting these.
Re: Resident Evil Requiem Leakers Deserve "A Thousand Deaths", Says Hideki Kamiya
Not extreme at all.
Watch out, people will want to cancel him next.
Re: Nintendo Seemingly Rules Out Virtual Console Revival, Says It Remains Focused On Offering Classics Via Switch Online
Good. NSO is great value for money.
Re: Review: Virtual Boy For Switch 1 & 2 - Is It Really Worth Revisting Nintendo's Greatest Folly?
I bought the cardboard one but my mate is paying half so we can both play through everything a little bit cheaper.
It shouldn't be in the expansion pak though but on the standard nso.
And really should be all the games on one cartridge included with the peripheral.
I'm glad it's out and gives me a chance to have a go though. I'll never play it again once all done.
Re: "We Thought It Would Be Fun" - Nintendo Explains Why Pokémon FireRed & LeafGreen Aren't On Switch Online
I have no interest in this as i only had nostalgia for Red/Blue which was catered for in Let's Go Pikachu.
This is no doubt a test release to see how well it does at that price point and gauge interest in re-releases not on NSO.
If you are not happy wait until it goes on sale. Or if you need it now buy eshop vouchers via cheaper cashback sites so you save some of your money.
Re: Poll: How Would You Rate The Nintendo Classics Virtual Boy Launch Games?
@BoFiS
If Mario Tennis Fever hadn't just been released it probably would have been one of the first games for the VB.
We won't be seeing Mario Power Tennis on GameCube for a while for the same reason.
Re: Poll: How Would You Rate The Nintendo Classics Virtual Boy Launch Games?
Can't vote as too early.
Played 30 minutes of Wario so far. It's good. Cardboard VB nicely made but haven't worked out my best playing position yet as joy cons still attached was awkward after a while.
It did hurt my brain though so will take my time playing through everything.
Re: Forget The Talking Flower, This Is The Cutest Upcoming Mario Toy
Shame it doesn't have a proper baby yoshi inside rather than the grown up yoshi.
I'm hoping the yoshi popcorn bucket comes to UK cinemas though as that looks epic.
Re: Gallery: We've Got The Virtual Boy Accessory For Nintendo Switch Online
Got the cardboard one today from the uk nintendostore. It fits in my drawer so I'm happy. Roll on Tuesday to try it out.
Re: Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds Super Monkey Ball DLC Update Launches For Free This Week
Have they updated the demo so we can try the Switch 2 version yet?
Re: Review: Mario Tennis Fever (Switch 2) - Slim For Singles, But An Addictive Core Gives It Online Legs
@Anti-Matter
If you still play a lot of games on Switch 1 as well as your PS5 I still recommend upgrading to Switch 2 as your Switch 1 games will run better on it.
Hopefully there'll be more Switch 2 games this year that sway you to upgrade though.
Re: Review: Mario Tennis Fever (Switch 2) - Slim For Singles, But An Addictive Core Gives It Online Legs
@Anti-Matter
You'll have to considering you don't own a Switch 2.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Duel - Super Bomberman 2 (SNES)
I prefer the UK Pal version which was gold and not the dull black version.
Re: Super Bomberman Collection Gets A Surprise Shadow Drop On Switch 2
Put many hours into Bomberman 3 with my little brother. Definitely getting this. 😊
Re: Preview: Five Takeaways From My Time With Virtual Boy On Nintendo Switch Online
I've ordered the cardboard version to try it out. If I then feel the need I'll get the plastic one.
Thinking I'll have to kneel on the floor with the cardboard/Switch 2 sitting on my table with pro in hand.
Joy. 😁
Re: Metroid Prime 4 & Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Imprisonment Sales Get Off To A Slow Start
MP4 is a good game. I'm 20 hours in. I know the project was restarted but I don't understand why it still took them so long as it isn't a huge game.
The dialogue is fine too and it is fun driving about the open world bit which isn't a huge part of the game overall.
As for Hyrule that was great. Put 80 hours into that one
Re: Tomodachi Life: Living The Dream Moves In On Switch 1 This April
Was very odd hearing them explain what a Mii is. Very 2007. And no mention of importing your Mii that has been sitting on your Switch doing nothing since 2017 (when it was transferred over from the WiiU).
Definitely not a game for me though...
Yoshi in May then?
Re: Rumour: Switch Online GameCube Releases Might Have Been Leaked
OMG... They're putting GameCube games on the online service GameCube App!
The more the merrier, even if you've played a re-release or are hoping for a remaster.
Re: ICYMI: The Super Mario Galaxy Movie Is Now Coming To Cinemas Two Days Earlier
Being in UK with School Easter Holidays kicking in on the 2nd where I live this is great.
I can see it on the 1st April rather than have a kid tell his Dad, "That's Mario" on every scene like I suffered during the first movie.
Lots of movies come out on a Wednesday in the UK though. No doubt Avengers: Doomsday will do too.
Re: Hyrule Warriors: Age Of Imprisonment Surpasses 1 Million Copies Sold
Finished it last week at 100%. Lovely companion game to round off the BOTW/TOTK Zelda style.
Got 86 hours out of it which isn't bad for what I still consider a 'button basher'.
Re: Super Mario Galaxy Movie's New Trailer Shares A "First Look" At Yoshi
@Anti-Matter You'd need to buy a Switch 2 to play it though. And we all know your feelings on that... 😂
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Getting The Switch 2 Upgrade For Super Mario Bros. Wonder?
Having sold the switch 1 version after completing it 100% I won't be buying it again.
Hoping we get a sequel or something different to enjoy in a few years time though.
Are we getting Yoshi in April/May?
Re: The Live-Action Zelda Movie Is Coming To Netflix
Clickbait headline of course.
Re: Nintendo's First Game Trial Of 2026 Is Exclusive To Switch 2 (North America)
I enjoyed and completed Disney's Illusion Island that we got in December in the UK as a game trial.
So hopefully we get something that isn't Madden next as I have no interest in it.
As I have a Switch 2 it can be on either console though.
