“That guy in the blue hoodie kinda looks like Tony Hawk.”
He gets that a lot. 😊

I’ve been skateboarding for forty one years and I can confirm these Pro Skater games are excellent. I get really into them and it feels like I’m actually skating.

Also I still remember the video introduction that plays at the beginning of Pro Skater 4. SO many good tricks playing to the rocking track T.N.T. by AC/DC.

Yes! Played the first couple of tracks and instantly felt happy. 😊

I gave Super Mario Bros. 1 a quick blast through on the SNES All Stars on Nintendo Switch Online. The physics are a little different to the NES version and it’s nice to play the old faithful with updated graphics.

It looks like the graphics might be good. I do encourage free game demos so people can try before they buy.

@Olliemar28 Yeah. My best guess is 3 and 4 remastered.

Pro Skater 1 and 2 were really good re-releases and 2 is supposed to be the series best but I’m waiting for 4 as that’s the one I actually owned and played on GameCube.

Thank you for the interview. This man has literally brought so much joy to so many.

I’m a bit short on time this weekend so I just dipped for a few minutes into Debris Infinity the excellent twin stick shooter in the style of Asteroids and Geometry Wars. A great time was had as always.

And I gave Tobla - Divine Path a half hour and got past the level I’ve been stuck on for two weeks. That felt good.

Maybe it’s a shame something couldn’t have been worked out in this case. A lot of professional gamers have said that Palworld is the game they wanted The Pokémon Company to make.

Yeah. Well done Jeff Minter. This looks amazing.

Woah. That’s coming out as £282.15 today in GBP.

This price for Switch 2 is unlikely but possible. (Apple only add $100 when there is a bigger screen but all internals are the same.

I’m playing Tobla Divine Path. It’s a pretty sweet first person 3D puzzler.

Yay. Released on Lara Croft’s birthday again. I think that’s really clever.

Eeeuuurrooopppeeeeeaaannnn! 😊

@PikminMarioKirby Yes! Please. I need a GameCube wireless controller for Switch just like the Switch N64 one. The N64 one is awesome.

@bimmy-lee Hiya. 🖐😊 Now I’ve had time to think about it I think Gen X shooter sounds really awesome. But I totally understand why the article used boomer shooters.

@bimmy-lee I mean you’re right. True Baby Boomers were born in or around 1945 when everybody started families after World War 2.

I like ‘Doom-Like’ but I must admit Boomer Shooter sounds awesome and it is describing me gaming in the 1990’s.

I’ve played a lot of U Deluxe. I like it a lot. I’m about two thirds towards 100%.

I’m so happy there is a 2D game on this list.

@Jack_Goetz Exposed abs of Doom guy. Yeah. Not exactly tactical. 😊

The Doom I played most was Doom 64 but this DOOM + II is also excellent.

Menu guide is here.

Having a great time playing Sutte Hakkun on the Nintendo Switch Online SNES app.

Yeah. I’ve just discovered this game and I love it. It’s just been added to Nintendo Switch Online and I’m having a great time. It’s not always easy though.

I’ll play all three. I’m always on the lookout for the next hidden gem.

Edit: Sutte Hakkun is amazing. I love the gameplay. I’ve not played a game like it before.

@AlanaHagues I’m sorry to bother you. It looks like Motorbikes Pro 2025 has the description of Master Of Bow and doesn’t appear in the vote.

I am imagining any 3D first or third person shooter would be awesome with a mouse.

The Quake developers already know this and support mouse and keyboard on Quake 1 and probably 2 and 3 as well.

@jake1421 Majora’s Mask as a side quest. Funny. I see what you did there. 😊

I’m still playing Wind Waker on the GameCube and having a wonderful time. I’m not giving myself any spoilers and I’m aiming to know the game inside out for what I hope is the year Nintendo put it on Switch later this year.

@SwitchplayerJohn Mario Kart 9 $70. Yeah probably.

@PushMyGran86 Mario Kart 9 bundled in free with Switch 2. That’s actually a great idea.

OhmyGod it’s happened! And thank goodness it’s called Switch 2 and not something more complicated. I love the reveal and the console. It looks like they’ve got everything right.

@GravyThief “4/10 counts as a solid review.”

Yeah I thought this when I read it too. If I have to guess it means they saw all the reviews that came in from all reviewers and that average rating evened out the 4/10 a bit and raised it.

I do love his videos. 🥰

Oh thank God. This is the game I bought on GameCube with my Christmas money and I’m having a great time. Amazing game and the music is fantastic.

I’m going to play the Title Theme to anyone who will listen. 😊

@8bit-Man Old iOS games. Great point. I loved the physics of a game called Bike Mania and I can’t play it any more.

@larryisaman It really hurt me when the 3DS shop shut down. I still miss the game I wasn’t able to buy (Dillon’s Rolling Western) as it never got a physical release.

I might be the perfect example of why N.S.O. is a thing. I would just buy Super Mario Bros. 1 and Super Mario Land and then leave.

This way they know my money is coming in every month and for me I can choose a few minutes in games I wouldn’t buy, games like Super Mario Bros. 3 or Super Mario World.

Also I thought Metroid 1 was quite bad but thought the Game Boy Advance version was amazing as it made things more clear.

These are great gaming memories I wouldn’t have had without Nintendo Switch Online.

I see your view too though. I love my 2DS Virtual Console games.

@Calomy “ . . . they can keep the switch online shop for a long time, without having to close it down like they did the Wii, Dsi, Wii U, and 3DS Online shops........... “

That’s a good point. This could actually be good for video game preservation.

I know Nintendo Switch Online has a bad reputation with some people but I like it.

For one it shows shareholders a flow of income coming in every month.

For another I would never have bought and played all those NES, SNES and Game Boy games but because they were all included I had a little go on them and found some gems.

Awww that’s a shame. That kind of sucks cancelling the orders after people have been this patient for this long.

They could have made a big thing about honouring orders after so long.

Great game. We have a light gun version in the local arcade and I love it. Can’t wait to play this.

@msvt Yeah. I’ve been noticing this year more and more games have text designed for massive TVs but unreadable handheld.

@SearchingS That was my first Mario and I still love it. I would play a remake for sure.

Good Lord. With detailed video like this maybe Nintendo should have announced it by now.

Clever move though. Lots of lovely free publicity.

I’m playing Journey on my phone. Nice to have a beautiful looking relaxing game I can walk around in right there in my pocket.

I’ve been playing Salamander (Life Force in America) because I fancied a shooter and the DS game Project Rub after Retro Gamer magazine reminded me about it.

Merry Christmas Nintendo Life. You have brought me so much joy this year. Thank you so much. 🎅 🤶

@JohnnyMind Heya. Great idea to put the games in the video behind a Spoiler window. 😎
Very handy. Thank you.

I like Felix a lot. I can’t wait to see this list. Actually I like all the guys who do the videos.

Also it’s excellent they can choose the games they are actually playing and are not limited to only choosing games that released this year.

@EarthboundBenjy I have The New Tetris on N64 and that is really good. One of the only games I could use my N64 controller in the Control-Pad position.
