And it ended up being the worst of the New series! For me at least. Well maybe tie with 2 but definitely much lower than the console games.
I really liked Wii and U and think U in particular is on par with the older Mario games. Also in terms of challenge it is also better than Wonder so I love Wonder but there is at least this one area in which U was objectively better.
Can't wait for these! Well if I'm honest I don't know if a huge open world title like Elden Ring is really for me as I already have a pretty big NS2 backlog and less gaming time. The Duskbloods looks like good fun though, even if I still hope for some kind of solo content.
I am SO happy that Capcom is back on Nintendo this gen. I hope they're here to stay. Honestly if a gaming console had just Capcom and Nintendo content I would still be probably happy with it.
It's just so sad that a developer who made one of the very best 2d games ever has to lay off people. I hope they will soon work for Nintendo again so that they get another opportunity to make good money.
I hope those who are losing their jobs will soon find a way to get back on their feet. I swear this industry is not doing well.
It's probably been said already but it would have been cool to also have the Assault designs in the poll as they are surprisingly quite different and probably more so than you remember.
Fox is the first Amiibo I bought years ago. My niece broke it while playing with it and the hand was cut off. I glued it back on and it's now as good as new! Anyway love that little thing.
I am SO happy they did not go with Fox's look from the movie. The new look is everything I ever dreamed of for this franchise! It's insane. The kind of move that reminds me why I love nintendo.
My god the artstyle is AWESOME! It's what I wanted them to do but I thought they would just rely on the usual cartoon style that is honestly a bit boring since everyone have been using it since LoL pretty much.
It's so good, I'm loving it! A little bummed that it is yet again a Lylat Wars remake though but hey that's brand new and it exists so that's definitely something.
Uh excuse me how is it possible that Fate of the old Republic ends up in the 5th position? So, okay it's not very likely though we don't know that, we don't know anything about it. But still when it comes to what I WANT, I definitely want that one!

I hope they release OG FFVII with this engine at some point. That would be a dream come true for me. This is not for me though. It's too compromised in how it treats the original story, convoluted in a kingdom hearts kind of way in its new story, and too ubi kind of open world filling when it comes to its gameplay.
I'm late to the party there but there is a good amount of things that can be read there that show a lot of misconception on what a critique is.
Nintendo plays by its own rules. That's it. They enter a new medium they're going to do so by their own rules. They never really cared what the others do and always do things their own way, that's what they're doing here.
It's something I would have loved a couple years ago when I had more gaming time, especially coupled with Gamechat. I would have spent so much time on that thing.
Nowadays though it's just not compatible with my life anymore, have fun kids!

Re: Elden Ring And The Duskbloods Still "Expected" To Release On Switch 2 In 2026
Can't wait for these!
Well if I'm honest I don't know if a huge open world title like Elden Ring is really for me as I already have a pretty big NS2 backlog and less gaming time. The Duskbloods looks like good fun though, even if I still hope for some kind of solo content.
Re: 'Yoshi And The Mysterious Book' Game Engine Seemingly Revealed
Please be good and not just for babies.
Re: Square Enix Wants To Further Promote Its Multi-Platform Strategy, Especially On Switch 2
I'm not interested in FFXIV or FFVIIR but I would definitely buy FFXVI and Visions of Mana.
Re: Order Of The Sinking Star, From Braid Creator Jonathan Blow, Is Coming To Switch 2
This looks extremely good!
I haven't played a pure puzzle game for a while, it looks like a neat opportunity to get back to it.
@Joe11
Oh.
Well, there goes my purchase!
I'll save that money and give it to decent people instead.
Re: The Resident Evil Series Has Surpassed An Astonishing 200 Million In Unit Sales
@Drago201
Final Fantasy has been losing momentum for years now.
Re: Man Arrested After Reportedly Threatening To Blow Up Nintendo's HQ
I really wonder why though.
Re: Capcom Continues To Demonstrate Why Its The Current Industry Darling
I am SO happy that Capcom is back on Nintendo this gen. I hope they're here to stay.

Re: Talking Point: Star Fox Old Vs. New Designs Compared - Which Do You Prefer?
It's probably been said already but it would have been cool to also have the Assault designs in the poll as they are surprisingly quite different and probably more so than you remember.
Re: Star Fox - Meet The Returning Cast In This Modernised Adventure For Switch 2
I just love these designs.
They all look so freaking perfect. I would have never thought they would do that but they did.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Bubsy In Claws Encounters Of The Furred Kind (SNES)
I feel like the EU one is probably better but the US one has more impact.
JP though... It's rough.
Re: Star Fox Switch 2 amiibo Compatibility Confirmed, Here's What You Can Unlock
Also shouldn't Rob be compatible too?
That would be a great little nod to the franchise lovers.
Re: Star Fox Switch 2 amiibo Compatibility Confirmed, Here's What You Can Unlock
Fox is the first Amiibo I bought years ago. My niece broke it while playing with it and the hand was cut off. I glued it back on and it's now as good as new!
Anyway love that little thing.
Re: Reaction: Nintendo Hits The Rewind Button On Star Fox, Again, And I'm Here For It, Again
I am SO happy they did not go with Fox's look from the movie.
The new look is everything I ever dreamed of for this franchise! It's insane. The kind of move that reminds me why I love nintendo.
Re: Star Fox Is Finally Getting Another Game, Out June 2026 Exclusively On Switch 2
My god the artstyle is AWESOME!
It's what I wanted them to do but I thought they would just rely on the usual cartoon style that is honestly a bit boring since everyone have been using it since LoL pretty much.
It's so good, I'm loving it!
A little bummed that it is yet again a Lylat Wars remake though but hey that's brand new and it exists so that's definitely something.
Re: Mina The Hollower Finally Lands On Switch 1 & 2 In Just A Few Weeks
Yoshi, Indiana Jones AND Mina? Man May is packed!
Re: Talking Point: Do You Prefer Big Directs Or A Steady Flow Of News From Nintendo Today?
Nintendo Today isn't compatible with my potato phone.
So the choice is rather easy, go directs.
Re: Donkey Kong Bananza's Latest DLC Event Kicks Off Next Week
I don't care what anyone says the bananza transformation are a monstrosity.
Re: Talking Point: Will These Upcoming Star Wars Games Make The Hyperspace Jump To Switch 2?
Uh excuse me how is it possible that Fate of the old Republic ends up in the 5th position?
So, okay it's not very likely though we don't know that, we don't know anything about it. But still when it comes to what I WANT, I definitely want that one!
Re: It Sounds Like Capcom Has Another Huge IP On Its Hands With Pragmata
Capcom is on a roll.
Good job and I hope more releases for NS2!

Wow he's such a hero.
Re: ICYMI: Indiana Jones And The Great Circle Estimated Switch 2 File Size Revealed
Another good reason to buy a physical copy.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl - Duel: Final Fantasy Fables: Chocobo Tales
Ah. That's a tough one. They're both really good and both going in completely different directions and in a bold way.
I'll vote for EU/Jp though as it's even bolder and more unusual.
Re: The Live-Action Zelda Movie Is Coming To IMAX
@solarwolf07
Super Nintendo Playstation 2 confirmed.
Re: Resident Evil Requiem Director Breaks Down Players' Camera Preferences
I've played the whole game in third person.
Also it would be equally fascinating to see how many people use the yaw VS roll options for motion controls.
Oh wait.
Re: Preview: Indy's Still In Whip-Cracking Shape As MachineGames Squeezes Mileage From Switch 2
Yep this is looking great! And you're telling me it's on the cartridge? Brilliant!
Re: Dbrand Claims Its New Joy-Con Holder Is More Comfortable Than A Pro Controller
And of course they pick a fight with the one controller that is largely regarded as the most comfortable ever. Big chance of success.
Re: Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes Of An Elusive Age - Definitive Edition Has Been Rated For Switch 2
@westman98
Ah. Beat me to it.
Also imagine if the 2d version of the game was HD-2D!
Re: Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes Of An Elusive Age - Definitive Edition Has Been Rated For Switch 2
So it is Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age - Definitive Edition - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition.
Man I love this gen's naming conventions.

What? They're actually updating Crypt of the necrodancer after all this time? This is awesome!
Re: Today Is Nintendo Legend Yoshiaki Koizumi's 58th Birthday
Look at the man's pedigree!
It truly is something.

Re: Final Fantasy VII Trilogy Director Says Part 3's Development Is "On Time And On Schedule"
@C25CLOUD
Yeah I know. It's such a shame though.
Re: Final Fantasy VII Trilogy Director Says Part 3's Development Is "On Time And On Schedule"

Right thanks, I'll look into it!

Wow that's great news thanks.
When can we expect cartridges?
Re: Final Fantasy VII Trilogy Director Says Part 3's Development Is "On Time And On Schedule"
@UpsideDownRowlet
I also hate uninstalling games and my NS2 will soon be in need of extra storage. Any recommendation for a solid SD express thingy?
Re: Final Fantasy VII Trilogy Director Says Part 3's Development Is "On Time And On Schedule"
I hope they release OG FFVII with this engine at some point. That would be a dream come true for me. This is not for me though. It's too compromised in how it treats the original story, convoluted in a kingdom hearts kind of way in its new story, and too ubi kind of open world filling when it comes to its gameplay.
Re: Rumour: A Metroid Movie May Become A Reality As Two Studios Battle For Rights
I think this is literally the worst of all nintendo franchises to adapt for several reasons. I say leave it alone.
Re: UK Charts: Pragmata Shoves Tomodachi Life Off The Top Spot
@Falk_Sturmfels
I think Pragmata is a very gamey game for lack of a better word.
And people who like Ninty and switch usually like gamey games.
Re: Poll: Box Art Brawl: Yoshi's Universal Gravitation (GBA)
Europe is actually so much better than the other two this time around.
Re: Talking Point: Do You Play Zelda Games For The Story?
Yes, I very much enjoy stories in games in general and really like the Zelda series for its many amazing stories.
Re: 'Sega Universe' Initiative Announced, Celebrating Multiple Classics With Anniversary Projects
@TheRazor
Well yes I don't think the Megadrive app was ever updated but it started right away with a really good selection of games.
Re: Poll: What Review Score Would You Give Pragmata?
I can't wait to get my hands on that and give it a proper go.
Also someone or maybe a couple people actually, voted abysmal. How's that even possible is beyond me.
Re: Splatoon Raiders Is Alive, And It's Out This Summer On Switch 2
Okay I'll bite.
Looks fun and well I don't do multiplayer splatoon anymore but I I'll be happy to dive back (pun intended) with a solo adventure!
Re: "It's Truly Baffling" - Shigeru Miyamoto Comments On The Mario Galaxy Movie's Critical Reception

They enter a new medium they're going to do so by their own rules. They never really cared what the others do and always do things their own way, that's what they're doing here.
Re: Dive Into The Pages Of Yoshi And The Mysterious Book In This New Overview Trailer
@burndive
Exactly. 100% agree on both the music and the difficulty. Fingers crossed.
Re: Xbox Is Reportedly Having "Very Big Discussions" About Exclusivity
I mean, they're about to launch a new console. That's not very surprising news that they would want to secure big name exclusives.
Re: Poll: So, Will You Be Playing Final Fantasy XIV Online On Switch 2?
It's something I would have loved a couple years ago when I had more gaming time, especially coupled with Gamechat. I would have spent so much time on that thing.
Nowadays though it's just not compatible with my life anymore, have fun kids!
