I'm excited for the collaborations a lot, but being able to craft multiple items at once is probably the biggest QoL improvement I could've hoped for. That is going to make things SO MUCH easier
My vote will be for Simon/Richter. Once it starts with the creepy castle and Luigi against Mummies and Medusa, you KNOW its going to be a Castlevania character. So you get that little rush of 'Oh I know what's coming' Then a bit after Simon is revealed, there's the surprise of Richter revealed. This trailer is the only one that let's you build anticipation knowing the result AND totally shocks you out of left field.
I think a third wave would be overkill. Honestly, I love this game a ton but the cast is a bit TOO big at this point. There ARE characters you could add but everything feels a bit bloated right now...
Petey for sure. The others are great. Love MK7 and seeing Kamek in a mainline game is awesome after 64, but Petey was my main in Double Dash (with Koopa Troopa) so I'm super excited for the return
17/17 Article said there was no clue for Minish Cap but her holding the shield is a big one. In the game Zelda wins the shield in a festival game and then gives it to Link
In terma of personality, the best is Wind Waker, but in terms of design and sheer sense of power its gotta be Hyrule Warriors. Especially with that trident, he is a MONSTER
I enjoy amiibo. I think the figures are generally pretty good looking. Especially now, the mold seems to have improved a LOT. I also like the little bonuses they give (figure players, gear in Splatoon, racing suits in MK8DX) I feel like as a whole they will slow down but I hope they don't go away forever. They're a nice collectible for characters that will likely never get figure releases
Have to vote 3DS Rainbow Road. Its my favorite Rainbow Road of the series and looks gorgeous now I gotta say, I'm not sure how I feel about Peach garden's. Its a personal favorite for having some tight turns and a unique layout. I'm undecided on the updates...
On the one hand, I'm very sad that OoT's Spirit Temple isn't on the list On the other I am SUPER happy to see Minish Cap crack the top five. It's my favorite Zelda and never seems to get enough love.
Primal Rage Its slow, clunky, and a lot was lost in translation from arcades to home consoles. But even still, giant prehistoric monsters beating each other up is right up my alley. An awesome cast for a fighting game
My all time favorite Pokemon is Pinsir. There's something so threatening about a four foot tall beetle that can suplex you with its massive claws. I had Pokemon Blue growing up and while my friends with Red were loving Scyther I really latched onto my exclusive bug. Other Pokemon have found their way into my heart, like Honedge and Torterra, but I will always love Pinsir.
I feel like a lot of people will dismiss Fire Emblem Warriors because of the roster size and repeated movesets, but honestly it's by far my favorite. The pair-up mechanic adds a lot of strategy to your character selection, I feel like the AI for the orders given is a bit stronger, and while there are repeated movesets all of them are fun to use. Hyrule Warriors may have more unique movesets, not all of them are fun (Looking at you Tingle, Wizzro, and Lana with the Deku Stick) There's not a bad moveset in the bunch of Fire Emblem Warriors
I went in for the LRG physical copy, because I just prefer physical games, and I kinda wish I hadn't. Not because the game looks bad. Quite the opposite. I want to play it NOW and don't want to wait for my copy to arrive
Darkstalkers has long been one of my favorite series so its great to see it all collected together on Nintendo hardware no less. Love online play and training rooms for all games too.
A ton of great announcements. Salmon Run returning. New Mario Strikers. Live A Live. 48 Mario Kart tracks. More Kirby details,. But my favorite announcement was the return of Klonoa
For me it's Phantom Hourglass just because how standard it is. It recycles the Wind Waker's world, literally every item is from another game, there's simply no innovation aside from the touch controls and the central temple, both of which were improved upon in Spirit Tracks. It's as though someone is just checking off the items on the list of 'Things that should be in a Zelda game' Its not a broken busted game but it lacks any kind of heart and soul.
Ashley is by far my favorite character but I've found myself really enjoy using Jimmy and Cricket. They're both pretty simple characters to use but its fun to figure out how to solve the microgame with them
The mounting of Yoshi (I always heard it is vreet vroo) The critical hit sound in any of the Dragon Quest games The Metal Blade from Mega Man 2 The whip crack from Castlevania The NES jump in Ice Climber, Mario, and several others
As much as I love and respect Sakurai as a developer, I kinda hope Nintendo gives the reigns to this series to someone else so we can at least get another game.

Re: Feature: Which Zelda Game Has The Best Ganondorf? Every Design Ranked By You
@NinTempo Agree 100%. I don't think any other design carries the same...'heft' as Hyrule Warriors. THAT is the possessor of the Triforce of POWER.
Re: Best Nintendo Switch Fighting Games
Sad to see Skullgirls 2nd Encore not make an appearance. Its my personal favorite fighting game of all time.

Re: Best Mario RPGs Of All Time
I really don't get the hate Paper Jam gets. I think it's as good, if not BETTER, than both Partners in Time and Dream Team.
Re: Princess Peach: Showtime! Opens On Switch In March 2024
It looked cute and sort of fun. Then we got Peach swashbuckling and I was pretty excited. Kung Fu Peach sold me though.
I'm excited.
Re: Poll: Who Will You Be Playing As In Super Mario Bros. Wonder?
I'll probably swap around a bit and try everyone. Though I feel like for the most amount of time, I'll be going with the sovereign of Sarasaland

This is legit one of my favorite games of the GC/PS2 era. I am super excited to see this come back
Re: Talking Point: Would A Third Wave Of Smash Bros. Ultimate DLC Have Been Too Much?
I think a third wave would be overkill. Honestly, I love this game a ton but the cast is a bit TOO big at this point. There ARE characters you could add but everything feels a bit bloated right now...
Re: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Has Been Updated To Version 2.4.0, Here Are The Full Patch Notes
My biggest pipe dream (pun intended) is for a 'Favorites' feature where you can save 1-3 loadouts of kart parts for ease
Re: Gex Trilogy Collection Announced For Nintendo Switch
I got my N64 very late in the game. When I got it I had two games for almost a full year, Goldeneye and Gex 64. I am so excited for this comeback
Re: Poll: What Mario Kart 8 Deluxe Wave 5 DLC Racer Are You Most Excited About?
Petey for sure. The others are great. Love MK7 and seeing Kamek in a mainline game is awesome after 64, but Petey was my main in Double Dash (with Koopa Troopa) so I'm super excited for the return

Fun little quizz
Re: Poll: Which Character Would You Like To See Return Next In Mario Kart 8 Deluxe?
I'd say my top three would be ROB, DK Jr, and Hammer Bro. Honorable mention to Pauline
Re: Talking Point: In 2023, Do You Still Care About amiibo?
I enjoy amiibo. I think the figures are generally pretty good looking. Especially now, the mold seems to have improved a LOT. I also like the little bonuses they give (figure players, gear in Splatoon, racing suits in MK8DX) I feel like as a whole they will slow down but I hope they don't go away forever.

Re: Bayonetta's OG Voice Actor Asks Fans To "Boycott" Third Game After PlatinumGames Wage Fallout
For the amount of training she's done, for how taxing VO work can be, for the time commitment, yeah $4000 is ridiculous.
Re: Feature: The Best Autumnal Levels In Video Games To Get You In The Fall Mood
Autumn is my favorite time of year for Animal Crossing. The colors are super soothing and the whole atmosphere is so comfy
Re: Talking Point: What's The Worst Game That You Still Love For Some Reason?
Primal Rage
Its slow, clunky, and a lot was lost in translation from arcades to home consoles. But even still, giant prehistoric monsters beating each other up is right up my alley. An awesome cast for a fighting game
Re: Review: Pac-Man World Re-Pac - Perfectly Passable PS1 Platforming
@rockodoodle Yeah that's kinda where I'm at too. I definitely wanna play it, having missed the original, but not in a 'must buy' way
Re: Talking Point: What Does Your Favourite Pokémon Say About You?
My all time favorite Pokemon is Pinsir. There's something so threatening about a four foot tall beetle that can suplex you with its massive claws.

Re: Mario Strikers: Battle League Will Be Supported With Free Post-Launch Updates
I'm not at all surprised since this was their plan with Mario Tennis and Mario Golf. Seems Mario sports titles are getting the Splatoon model
Re: Poll: What's The Best Warriors Game On Switch?
I feel like a lot of people will dismiss Fire Emblem Warriors because of the roster size and repeated movesets, but honestly it's by far my favorite. The pair-up mechanic adds a lot of strategy to your character selection, I feel like the AI for the orders given is a bit stronger, and while there are repeated movesets all of them are fun to use.

Re: Cris Tales Update Adds New Content And 'Significantly Decreases' Switch Load Times
This is excellent news. Really enjoyed this game but had to put it down because the load times broke the flow so much
Re: 'Gex' The Forgotten '90s Video Game Mascot Might Be Making A Comeback
Gex 64 was one of the first N64 titles I owned (with GoldenEye) I have a LOT of nostalgia so I would be unironically HYPED for Gex to come back
