Very excited for this. On the original Game Boy my two main games were Super Mario Land and Tetris so I’m very happy to play the Game Boy Color one. And the N.E.S. one. It’ll be great to see that.

Oooo. I’m very keen to choose my game of the year. I just want to make sure I choose the right one and I’m not quite ready today.

Game looks really good.

I'm playing BUTCHER. Really fun 2D twin stick shooter.

I’ve just played the demo and it’s really fun. It makes me feel powerful being so overpowered straight away and I like that.

New Super Mario Bros. 2 for me. I think I’ve found all the coins in 1-1 the first level and there are a lot. 😊 Now just trying to beat my best score by trying a few different ways of using powerups.

I’m pretty sure an extra U.S.B. port on the top is going to be a thing.

I did brilliantly.
4,431st place. 😎

It’s totally fine, buddy. Toree games have given me so much joy. Take the time you need. 🥰

Yeah the Lite was amazing and I was so happy it still had Advance support but the ‘Phat’ was so much more comfortable to play. I really loved it. It had great shoulder button positioning. It also had amazing clicky buttons and good firm control-pad.

My DS Lite had soft buttons and mushy control pad. I definitely didn’t like it as much to play on.

But my hinge broke on the ‘Phat’ and my Lite is still going so it’s a great design.

Hi. 🖐😊

New Super Mario Bros.
Metroid Prime Hunters.
Geometry Wars.
Ridge Racer.
Project Rub.

Tried it. Loved it. And I love the regular game.

Also, weirdly, it seems the movement in the D.L.C. is a little better than the normal game in a way I can’t easily put into words.

Yes please. I really like all the Tomb Raider live action versions. I really like the TV series Relic Hunter. I also really like Phoebe Waller-Bridge.

I can’t wait for more and Sophie Turner is an excellent choice.

@Eduard_Brenton I can recommend New Super Lucky’s Tail. I heard that’s on Game Pass and that’s a good game.

Vampire Survivors. WHAT. A. GAME.

I’m a bit late to the party but I’m glad I’m here now.

One cheeky letter is going to cost him seven and a half milly? That’ll learn ‘im, I guess.

@JohnnyMind Yeah. People do like to own their games, don’t they.

I wonder if this delisting is to concentrate on Nintendo Switch Online and Xbox live.

This controller looks like it will feel incredible.

That’s a good shout making the face buttons hot-swappable like the gates on the sticks. Maybe this functionality will come in the future.

I’m really enjoying a play-through of Poochy And Yoshi’s Woolly World. What a beautiful game and such good music. 9/10 Nintendo Life rated.

Glover. I’ve been waiting nearly forever for Glover. 😊

Game looks great. Just what I like.

This symmetrical stick Wii U style design is very interesting. Other Nitro Decks I’ve seen have been asymmetrical Switch/Xbox style sticks.

The Wii U gamepad is super comfortable. This has got my interest.

I took the opportunity to play Shadow Man Remastered on Switch. I have the 64 game but never got into it. (I’m guessing it was that the controls were not modern controls.)

Yeah. Really like what I’ve seen so far.

Cool. I never got Banjo-Kazooie for my 64 but caught up on Switch Online and I really enjoyed playing it. I’ve heard loads of praise for Tooie so I’ll be playing this day one.

I’m playing the Tobla free demo. (The full game should be released sometime this year.)

It’s a nice-feeling and relaxing 3D puzzle game where you swap blocks for different size blocks to access the different areas with a hand like the Tears of the Kingdom Ultrahand.

I like it. It’s memorable.

@Mrkittyhead It’s the experience. Perfectly put. And the reviewer says this as well. The first time I used the rocket pack in the demo I was delighted and its these experiences I look for in games.

I recommended the game Tobla. It’s got an Eshop demo and a 2024 release date and it’s really good.

It reminds me of the excellent Neon White because you are in Heaven. It has some simple 3D platforming and you use your God-powered hand which is similar to Ultrahand from Tears of the Kingdom.

This is great. I’ve just found the free demo and I’m really enjoying it. I can’t wait for it to be released.

(It says it will be released sometime in 2024.)

(I’m playing this game at the moment. It’s really good. I like the pacing of the game as you play through it and I like how it keeps my interest.)

@Savage_Joe Very good. I wasn’t expecting a second witty reply. 😎

@Not_Soos American Idiots. I see what you did there. That’s really great 😊

This is such a good idea and shows me how the band think and I like it.

I do read these articles every time just in case they add something. For example I loved it when they added folders.

(I had been sorting games by genre but my latest obsession has been a folder for 10/10 Nintendo Life rated games, a folder for 9/10 games and I just made one for 8/10 games. It’s helping me play the best games in my backlog.)

Yay Loddlenaut. I really enjoyed that one. I’m glad I got the opportunity to vote for it.

Awww well done everybody for the Hogwarts Legacy joke. I was going to make the same joke but use the game Celeste but I will happily join in with the Harry Potter game that no-one has heard of and no-one has bought. How did it get missed? Truly a crime. 😏

These games look good. I’ll have to fire them up and see if they play like like the F-Zero on the 2DS Eshop.

It’s not for me but some people are going to love the track editor on F-Zero Climax.

It’s Nintendo so who knows. I could imagine shoulder scroll wheels controlling some cool things in game as well, like not just menu items but acting as a right stick maybe. That might be good.

But I think they won’t do it.

It’s looking like Switch to Switch 2 will be like moving from DS to 3DS XL.

It’s really creepy. I love it. Will be good for playing at Halloween.

I thought that the mechanic where the tree creature doesn’t move until you look away would feel like in 2D Mario where you get the Boo and Big Boo ghosts and they only move when you look away but this Minecraft one actually looks like it feels pretty different when you play.

I was missing my favourite Mario 2D game (New Super Mario Bros. 2) so I fired up Super Mario Bros. 3 on the Switch Online Advance app.

Good times were had. I really like how it looks and handles.

Great game. I’m really enjoying it. It reminded me of Shape Of The World which I really like.

I have some thoughts if the developers would like to consider them for Loddlenaut 2.

Should have been called Waternaut, as people could remember this game by remembering the word astronaut. I had trouble remembering the name Loddlenaut.

Should have been press and release ZR to collect items and press and hold ZR to scan area for items.

Should be able to look up or down with the right stick and travel in that direction with the left stick rather than use A and B to float up and sink down. For a chill-out game there are too many buttons.

This game looks really good. I’m excited to try it.

Battletoads looks AMAZING and with comedy animations. Yes please.

This update looks interesring. I’ll have to try all four games. I like that you can pass diagonally in the dodgeball game. I don’t play puzzle games but I always check them out once. The car game looks like it runs like Out Run on the original Game Boy.

Thank you Nintendo Switch Online.

@dew12333 I was thinking a physical version of Nintendo Life would be a magazine made of paper but a booth at a convention would be awesome. I would love to go to a Nintendo Life stall. 😊

Tomb Raider I-III at the moment. Honestly I’ve only played one Tomb Raider game and that was on a Mac laptop so at the moment I’m just in the first game pottering around in Lara’s mansion getting used to the controls.

(Modern controls, not ‘tank’ controls.)

Neon White on Switch is absolutely amazing. Fast and smooth. This will be interesting to see how these pieces fall and what companies develop from this.

I’m the person who waits for release day and actually purchases the product, thereby helping the company make the next great game down the road.

And I am not the only one, judging by the sales of Tears Of The Kingdom.

Nice. I voted Elden Ring and it’s the top result.

I also think Grand Theft Auto V would be a great shout and it’s still very popular. In the past I wouldn’t have thought it very Nintendo but these days the first three are on Switch so it’s fair game.

I love stories like this. It’s a bit like in films where another actor nearly got cast in a film and how different our world would be.

This isn’t as big as Will Smith turning down The Matrix but I’m glad Nintendo think of things like this.

I said yes but only the biggest, most recognisable, and then regretted my decision when everyone picked the more the merrier one. 😊

Gosh. This is interesting. I can see how people would love to see their loved third party icons and I can see Nintendo wanting to keep it to Nintendo first party icons only.

I bet they open it up to third party icons. I’m thinking like Smash Brothers and all the characters added there.
