I hope they'll translate it and release it in the west.

Odyssey is my favorite, second favorite I think probably Galaxy.

Super looking forward to this, never got to play it's original release and has been lost for years, hoping for a physical version even if it's a limited run.

Limited physical is fine, but I think it's really lame that digital is also limited

I was figuring for awhile now that Holiday 2021 is probably the earliest we might see BotW 2 launch.

Looks really cool, probably gonna wait for a price drop/find it used, I'm not really into this style of game enough to justify paying full price.

@StevenG Also watch the spinning objects like coins and stars, they're moving at the same rate as the original, so either they slowed those objects down and sped up the recording or the characters are moving faster, I'd say the latter is more likely.

Actually you can definitely tell the footage wasn't sped up. If you watch several scenes closely you can see coins, stars, etc all spinning at the same speed between the two, enemies moving at the same speed, only the player characters are moving faster.

@StevenG if the footage was sped up, shouldn't the cutscenes have been sped up as well? Only the gameplay appears faster.

I'm keeping an eye on this one, I love the original game, and I have it on Wii U. Most of the time I don't buy Wii U ports of games I already own, but I made an exception for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, and I might make an exception for this one too, depends what Bowser's Fury is. I didn't notice the Switch version being faster movement, that's actually kind of a big deal, I think that will improve the game.

Weird they didn't make Super Mario 64 1080p widescreen for it like they added to Super Mario Sunshine. I also noticed by the trailer Super Mario 64 and Super Mario Sunshine both look like they're running at a higher framerate than the original, I couldn't tell with Super Mario Galaxy, but I think SMG already ran at 60fps on the Wii, so my guess is all three games are running at 60fps.

There's a part of me hoping that it's actually included and they didn't say anything about it, and that you unlock it by finishing Super Mario Galaxy 1, that way it gets a bunch of attention when the first people discover it. But probably not.

Why limited time though? Seems like something that can help attract more subscribers long term.

That's February 12th 2021, aren't you guys British?

I wasn't expecting anything, but I'm still kinda disappointed. If they weren't going to remaster (which I get is a lot of time and resources to do) I would have appreciated at least including Galaxy 2 as well

9/12, ashamed to mess up the first two, also didn't know Gooigi was in Luigi's Mansion on 3DS

Miyamoto needs to stay far away from the Paper Mario franchise, he clearly doesn't understand why people like the originals.

14/15 the only one I got wrong was Tennis

7/15 felt like I kept getting one year off haha, was a hard one.

$60 is already hard to swallow for me, I usually wait for games to go on sale unless it's something I've been super looking forward to.

"Super Smash Bros Is" confirmed

15/15 first quiz I've done on NL that is easy

Could be fun, but being that Tencent is involved with it, gonna be a hard pass from me, I expected better from Nintendo than to make a game with the Chinese government

11/15 got sonic, roy, banjo, and isabelle wrong

Very pleasant surprise, I'll be looking forward to it. As a side note I really wish this was made on the Wii U though, Pokemon Snap is probably one of the most perfect use cases of the gamepad I can think of, oh well.

This has been a problem forever, whenever I would go on GTS on the DS games 99% of the requests was for a level 9 or under Arceus or some crap, I guess better late than never.

It looks like a spinoff I can skip... Is what I would say if it was literally any other franchise, but knowing Kingdom Hearts it's going to contain important story elements that will be necessary to understand the next game in the series

NA is okay, it gets the job done, but isn't anything special. EU looks like they tried to do something more, but it ended up looking ugly. JP looks good, going JP this time.

I don't think it's a bad idea, but I don't really care, I wouldn't buy it, I like physical games. As long as Nintendo doesn't start forcing people to buy digital for major releases I won't complain.

13/25 The only one that's in my town is Rowan, but knew a few other villagers, got Mabel wrong, seems kinda unfair considering Mabel, Sable, and Label all look alike from a silhouette. I guessed on I think four of them.

I'm not sure still. The battle mechanics look good, but there seems like there is a mismatch between what they said and what was shown regarding partners though. "Partners can be used in battle" but 99% of the battles they show have a notably absent partner. Also Mario is alone most of the time on the overworld, are partners permanent? I'm concerned that partners are going to be like "you get this partner for this chapter and this chapter only" kind of thing. Also the partners shown look bland af.

Yes please, Capcom! I didn't get a chance to really play Okami until last year, I had played it a little on the Wii back in the day, but didn't get too far into it. I played it on PS4 last year and I absolutely loved it! I played Okamiden earlier this year and I also really liked that game too, I am definitely ready for more Okami.

I think I agree with the list overall, but maybe Super Mario Kart is a little too high, it was great in the 90s, but today it doesn't hold up well compared to other SNES games.

I'm still hoping for Space Invaders 1999 being re released at some point Was one of my favorite games on N64.

I think all of them are pretty good, NA for me, Japan looks nice, but the abstract looking art in the background has seemingly nothing to do with the game, Europe has a weird face on Knuckles and Sonic is holding up 4 fingers...?

5/15 I have never even heard of most of these games, this was a really obscure list.

Normally I'd say something like NA's cover is bad, but I think Phalanx is a special case. It stands out on a shelf, everyone remembers this cover because of how bizarre it is, for that it's the best cover here (particularly as the other two just scream "generic space shooter" which may be more accurate to the actual game, but not unique at all).

7/10 got 4, 9, and 10 wrong

I'd like to see more Wii games ported instead of more Wii U games, Super Mario Galaxy, Kirby's Epic Yarn, The Last Story, just to name a few...

I voted Japan, I like that the image is wider, but NA looks great too. Europe looks good, but I feel the image doesn't represent what this game is very well, JP and NA do a much better job of representing the actual game.

I'm sad Ice Hockey isn't higher, as far as sports games go, it's definitely one of my favorites. Also I think Metroid is too high, the original Metroid is a really rough game, no map (and many rooms that look identical), no battery save, stiff controls, I suppose some people may like some of these things, but for most people it makes the game frustrating to play. The later releases are excellent, the first release not so much.

It's not great, but for the price it's worth it to me to play Tetris 99, Mario Kart 8, Super Mario Maker 2, and Splatoon 2 online, the NES and SNES games are a nice bonus. I get it's not as good as PSN or XBL, but it's also a third of the price.

I didn't know what dungarees were, they're called overalls or coveralls where I'm from

Wow the Switch is doing better than I thought, and that's great! I will always stand by the Wii U being a great system, one of my favorites in fact.

You know what else interferes with simplicity? Entering a long random code to be able to play with a friend. And if they're concerned about people using real names, can't they just make a filter that prevents users from using part of their name when signing up?

Well I'd definitely like to watch to get ideas for my island. This has been the first Animal Crossing game I've really been trying to put effort into (I played some New Leaf, but didn't really get into it), but when I see all the cool things other people have on their island mine seems pretty plain haha.

After playing animal crossing I was inspired to fly to a deserted island and chop down all the trees

I mean, I'm not gonna tell people how to play the game, but I genuinely feel people who time travel are missing the point of the game.

While Miyamoto was an important player in Nintendo's early success, I really don't think he's been very important in the last decade, so when he retires I don't think much is going to change. The last game to launch where he was a designer was Steel Diver. Not to discredit him for many of the wildly successful titles where he has been a producer, but as a producer he more or less just serves as guidance on the general direction the game is taking. Undoubtedly he serves as a mentor to his teams, but that just shows that he is passing his knowledge on, and that the legendary quality games Nintendo is known for isn't going to die with Miyamoto. In some ways, I feel Miyamoto's retirement might be good for Nintendo, as it can pave the way for some of the other great talent in their company. When people say Miyamoto is the "Walt Disney" of Nintendo, I don't believe them, I think there are a lot of "Walt Disneys" in Nintendo. I don't mean any disrespect to Miyamoto, far from it, the man is a legend in the industry, and probably one of the greatest if not the greatest video game designer of all time.

I'm going with NA, it gets minus 1 point for Axel's weird face, but plus a hundred for kangaroo, it makes me want to play it more because it looks ridiculous
