Is that the Wii Sports motif at the very end?

I think it's OK that bonafide classics take longer to come out now.

Production requirements aside, back in the day there was nothing so our thirst was much stronger. Also, today we have an entire catalog of games that anything new needs to compete with.

Minecraft 2: Yourscraft

I think a lot of this stems from Miyamoto wanting to get more into storytelling through film making. He's said he's wanted to do this, which is why we have the Pikmin shorts from a few years ago.

Now they've got an animation house and Miyamoto gets to try out his new venture using his favorite series.

@LastFootnote oops I read your message completely incorrectly. I thought you were saying that it didn't lock the + and - and you wanted it to. Sorry about that!

That one got me right in the feels...

Nintendo, if you're listening, my 1-year old LOVES the Mario stop motion videos (it's close to the only screen time she's allowed to have). She's patiently waiting for new ones!

@LastFootnote could you remap those buttons using the native Switch button-remapper thing?

@Anti-Matter I always recommend DQ 1-3 on the SNES for RPG fans. They're basically the grandfather to all JRPGs and you can cruise through each one in like 8 hours.

The SNES version simply for the rebalancing. The NES one has its place in the hall of fame, but I think the SNES version revisited some of the frustration and made it a little more fun without destroying what made the OG great. Also, the graphics are better IMO

WHOA. I'm normally not one to be offended by the $80 standard these days but that seems like twice what I would pay.

Yes, they're great games. But that's too much.

On the flip side, it is interesting that we're hitting that point in gaming history where a game that's 15 years old can hold up so well that it can come across as a new release to the uninitiated.

Finally my Amazon pre-order, where I got a discount, will go through....... oh wait

I didn't ask for it but I absolutely love it!

It's the one piece of Nintendo's history that I've never had the opportunity to experience since a demo at Nobody Beat the Wiz

A MARIO 35 SEQUEL

I'll never understand who is at the wheel of the game design on PoGo. Seems like they're always doing something to make things worse.

8 months of 40 hours per week! Man, I wish I had that much time for my side projects...

Mario 35 plz!

Or Mario 40 or whatever — I miss that game so much.

Give me Mario 35 set in the Mario 64 world for all I care. Those mechanics were absolutely perfect.

@Mando44646 In gameplay, it looks more like Link's Awakening

I loved this game so much. I think it's been long enough to play it again!

Watch Sony back out at the last minute.

REVENGE!!

Wouldn't that make them even more valuable?

@NintendoWife I enjoy the DOF/tilt-shift effect, but not the vignette. LA was right on the money. DQ III HD-2D also looks fantastic.

To @The_Nintend_Pedant 's point, the vignette and color correction makes it feel dreary, dim and generic.

@The_Nintend_Pedant Right??? The "HD-2D" effect is great! The vignette is absolutely horrible.

I think it's the one thing keeping me from liking these games. Also, it makes them all look the same.

I don't know what it was about the first movie, but it marked my time as when I moved on from my childhood Pokemon obsession.

I don't think it was the (boring) plot or anything, I just remember we saw the movie and suddenly my interest waned. If anything, it was the addition of a different style of Pokemon. I still love the games, and play them but my obsession level definitely changed.

I still have my 24k plated Charizard from BK that we got that same day though.

Well, yeah. She's married to the Potato Prince.

@Shaw_Brothers Same! But I'm trying from the website. I'll try from my Switch (2) tonight and see if that helps

That price point is riiiight on the money! The other Nintendo+Lego sets have been too expensive to splurge on, but this would make a fantastic gift for the SO

It says I've been selected!

This mechanic reminds me so much of Red Faction where we'd just make fox holes all over the place in multiplayer. I barely remember the deathmatch itself, just carving out the map.

@Cikajovazmaj I remember a similar story where he just kept bouncing around in the corner for Donkey Kong Country Returns, and the team was initially pretty confused.

Come to find out he was testing the particles being kicked up, and he wanted DK to be able to blow. And so the "puff" animation was included.

Excellent cast! Excited to see who plays Tingle

Can I connect my GBA for Wind Waker?

I applied to be a developer on this one at one point, but moving to Ireland was a heavy ask. Great team though. I hope for the best to everyone involved!

Should be 4k25... already outdated

I love that Nintendo has the power to tell Amazon to go pound sand.

I really only used Amazon to buy games back around the Switch 1 launch because of the 10% preorder discount.

Now that this isn't a thing anymore, why even bother? There are so many better options.

F-Zero 99 1440p 120hz, when?

I've been really eager to try it but, life has been too busy to play with friends. It feels like the answer to couch co-op as an adult!

However, once I saw that Donkey Kong can use the feature for co-op even with a Switch 1, I was sold. Such a cool feature!

I still have "A " in front of my Switch username to fix the matchmaking bug in this game. Without it, matchmaking is broken. It would occasionally find a few players, and I couldn't join friends. Adding it fixed the issue and the lobbies are always full.

One of the most peculiar bugs I've ever encountered!

I would love to see the GameChat running 24/7 with other random kiosks.

Also, yes! We do! 929-55-MARIO (929-556-2746)

I wanted the bowl, not the box

I'm a huuuge MK8 fan. I've been hooked since it launched on the WiiU. I would get first in multiplayer 9/10 times.

MKW nails it. MK8 feels antiquated now. It's basically everything I loved about MK8 but improved, and then tons of exploration and unlocking in single player. I couldn't be happier.

I genuinely feel like most people who are saying they'll stick with 8 are only there because they're adverse to change. MK8 was released so long ago that it'll be hard to pull them away in that sort of "something needs to be 9x better to get people to switch" kind of thing.

My nitpicks: I wish some MK8 save data carried over. Just for fun! Also, I wish the item hold button still existed. It's a different strategy and I'm not sold. Lastly, I agree that free roam should have a split screen mode.

The Cyberpunk example looks like the engine just has Motion Blur enabled. It's the first setting that I typically disable in PC games.

I just had flashbacks to sending my launch Switch Joy-Con in to get the interference foam installed.

@SBandy1 So glad to see love for The Touryst out in the wild! I loved every second of it. I would love a S2 update for it.

Maybe the load times will be even faster 😂

Also, I just realized one thing I miss about my Switch 1, was my BOTW collector's edition case. It was sort of perfect, even if a little nerdy.

I'm curious to what the case looks like without the Switch 2 in there and without the gamecard flap down. Just to get a better sense of how it would fit without the Attack Vector thing.

I'm not super interested in the Attack Vector, but I'm almost sold on the rest of the case here. I just don't want it bouncing around.

Meanwhile I still can't name my character "Sunshine" in Nintendo games like Magikarp Jump

@CutMan003 Thankfully, the dock is whisper quiet!

@KayFiOS Mario 35 downloaded an update. I can't even play that game anymore. I wouldn't stress about that.

I'm avoiding the unboxing videos — I want to experience that freshness myself!

BUT I think it's so cool that you guys are experiencing this along with us!

I don't know why, but I was not expecting a 3D All Stars update!

I have the 2017 edition of this. It's very meh, to be honest.

The figures are light plastic, the board has a huge fold in the middle, and even the window on the front of the packaging isn't glued on. I wasn't expecting marble pieces or anything but it just doesn't feel like it was worth the price. It feels more like a stylized 90s board game.
