I'm in!

is it twin stick controls?

Xenoblade series is the most overrated bloated mess of gameplay that has EVER existed in gaming history.

I've bought into the hype and tried THREE of these games now... never again, I can't stand them. Monolith Soft would much better moving on to some lost Nintendo IP's, more like a Retro that actually makes games.

All-Stars version of Super Mario 3 is all-time classic!!

GBA version good too, basically the same, I believe.

Only for ONE series -like an RPG with ALL Nintendo characters (like RPG Ultimate) but instead of turn-based (some of the time, yes but for other types of battles, let's SMASH!!!

Oh yea!!

Please please please don't it bleed through the individual games though. Yuck!

@EaglyPurahfan

I agree with your point, but neither this or Monster Hunter Stores (which many mention as a Poke-like) are much like playing the Pokemon experience. I am not saying any of the Switch releases did either, but I think maybe some of the indie clones (Coromon, Temtem, Monster sanctuary, etc.) may be closer options. What ever happened to Yo Kai Watch? I have one on 3DS, unplayed) but isn't that a Poke-like, as well? Maybe Digimon?

Hugely underrated game.

Switch owners want ALL the games, well, here's one and it has been largely ignored. Much preferred this to Triangle Strategy.

Will we be able to buy each of them individually, on the eShop?

Easily my favorite Pikmin game. It was very special on Gamecube, where I still play through it fairly often!

Original graphics al the way for me!

I'll be playing this on the Miyoo instead of Switch, though I bought on Wii and also Wii U so no more rebuys from me for Nintendo on the classic games ever again.

Funny enough I prefer the first game over all of them, and also in low res native 4:3 ratio!

So, I'll pass.

Long live the Gamecube!

I've passed on this game for now, at least. The revisit and "chore-like" feeling I get from it are not worth the inflated pricing, or the value of time, especially considering a backlog on Switch alone, not to even consider a history of gaming to play through on the Miyoo mini+.

I think ToTK will get away from me, and I'd like a return to a more focused Zelda of some kind. Something exciting, something that feel refreshing. I'm sorry this game so far does not wooh me.

That doesn't look like any Tomb Raider game I have ever played... and that is most of them and ALL of the first games.

I don't want this and that price seems high too.

There is no way Switch 1 will see this game.

Not even a dual release.

I still have the Gamecube bonus of the flower put, Pikmin seeds and a sun visor Man I gotta ebay that junk! Any takers?

@Anti-Matter
I like relaxing games too.
How many are on your Switch right now? I have more than I count off the top of my head.... certainly more than enough of literally the same look, play, and feel of what is on offer here. And that is ok, I hope you love it. For me it reminds me of the last year of Wii, and that was dreadful and we are not far off from that by the looks of things, in my opinon.

It really does seem that Switch is finally winding down.
There is a whole lot of "same'y" and way to familiar looking, playing, and feeling games and I feel it is getting near shovelware to get as many games out the door to the install base before Nintendo announces where we are going next. More and more it is seems that is coming sooner by the day.

On par with... Wii Music

:/

Switch winding on down.

I am very ready to move on.

Kind of cool, but only(!) if super cheap to buy.

LOL... bye (again) Sega!!!

Those kind of Wii motions gave me massive carpel tunnel.
Decent games otherwise.

Has anyone considered this is NOT a Switch upgrade, not a Switch pro, Not Switch+, Not Switch 2, and not Super Switch... but is actually a budget system without a cart slot and is a eShop bare-bones Swlitch Lite type entry level, push 'em out the door at a low-priced console?

Like a Switch "Wii-mini" type.
I betcha.

@BlublacMH
Is FF7 remake coming to switch?
Sure would like that! As long it is is not cloud based (har har)...and is complete. Didn't they release that game in episodes or something like that?

Are these like Diablo play style? Or like Hades? Never heard of this sub-series before.

This is more of an action strategy game than a puzzle. I liked this one, and may pick it up depending on price.

@TheBigBlue
Smash 3DS was awesome and a severely underrated gem.

@ATHFjman18

I am doing my second playthrough of FL on 3DS now and the new Switch entry seems a lot different. I would still recommend the 3DS version. I remain curious over the new one as more is revealed!

Are there any NLIFE codes for the gift card site right now? All my codes are invalid. Only reason I would buy a gift card is for the discount. Does anyone know?

I'd grab a few of these as they are on my wishlist this time.

Could not hold out for a sale to finally get FF6 back on my hands! I would normally PASS due to the price gouging and will refrain from buying the rest at this price, which is a shame.

Maybe grab FF4 on sale in a year or so but it will be a long wait for those waiting for the inevitable SquareEnix sale routine.

The $18 FF6 will hold me over until then.

During the long delays I got into the much cheaper ...and ultimately, preferred games of the Tiny Metal series on the eShop. Fans of these old remade games should check those out for if you want to play the type of game but in a less familiar way.

Advance Wars sat on the sidelines and lost its' shine for me.

That is incredibly awesome and so much more immersive.

@Lizuka
What are the prices?

Are they doing a bundle deal?

And physical is gone now, forever? or are they doing another run?

@Classic603

Some Indie will make more higher end Zelda experiences and fil that gap eventually.

Honestly, I REALLY and TRULY wish for a more traditional ZELDA games. I have missed that series for a long time now. Twilight Princess is the underrated gem and pinnacle to return to in a new way with some of the newer ideas.

BoTW could have been its' own new IP, in my opinion.

Meanwhile Xbox Arcade still up and running on my old XB360!! Now THAT is how this should have gone down.

Both of these eShops are gone far too soon. I still have UNopened 3DS games in my backlog!

It's shameful customer care, in my opinion.

It will go down as one my absolutely and hard-earned favorite top consoles of all-time.

3ds
new 3ds eclusives
3ds Eshop
DsiWare
Ds
Virtual Console

They will never give us another console with so many options as this portable 'catch-all'.

Changed my view on gaming forever and I've been playing since Pong.

@JohnnyMind

Thank you!

@JohnnyMind So I have to open all my retails games and load them up to update them? If so that really sucks. These says no one releases a finished product so they may be near unplayable if I don't get them updated.

I have unopened retail games.

Will games be able to UPDATE after the closure?

I want to grab Yellow, but how do we pay for them at this point?

2021 = OLED is great.

@JimNorman

What is the latest Nintendo Life code for the Eshop Code gift card page? The last one I have is NLife10 and no longer accepted. Thank you in advance.

@Gord_Poops

How are each game different? Aside from the obvious avalanche gimmick in the second
.

Which is better 1080 ....or Avalanche?

I still occasionally play Avalanche after 20 or so years.

Only played the original 1080 for minutes.

Brand new one would be really great.

We are due for the new remake game.
And expansion versions of Scarlet/Violet.

• major patch updates.
  I'd expect Yellow (at least) to be added to NSO.

Maybe it'll be Mario movie DLC for Odyssey. Nintendo did recently say they are going to concentrate on evergreen and adding value to their existing games.

Video walkthrough would be awesome.

@Selim

Prime 1 was not too bad. I beat it a few times on the original release and I am almost never finish a game like that. MP2 and 3 became unplayable and impossible to finish due to the unreal boss battles, even with walkthroughs and videos I never beat those games. Which is a shame.

I'd give MP1 remaster a try if I were you. If I can beat (I have not played remastered yet!) than I think just about any regular gamer could too.
