@AstroTheGamosian ah for sure sleep is the key. just as long as you don’t lose your humanity;))

@AstroTheGamosian Ah yea I understand, I spend a lotta time listening to Nintendo forecast or good vibes gaming or …. Nintendolife! When I could be playing the dam games!

Sorry to hear about the sleep woes. Definitely no judgement there. Gotta get the Zs however you can

@compostablecars ok we posted at the same time then, I was bored too and I didn’t see @mommar above also didn’t like the demo. I hope they turn it around for the proper release.

Glad many others are still excited despite

@Joe11 ok I’m glad I’m not the only one. The demo really didn’t click for me. I wanted to love it though.

Even tho it wasn’t a stunner of a direct with big new exclusives or real surprises (Orbital would’ve been that if they didn’t announce at game awards;), the best news about this direct to me was most everything is a first half of 2026 release. There’s plenty more to come this year. We just gotta be patient ~

@ThatZeldaNerd I hear ya but no matter what most think about Mario Kart World there’s also that ,, so 2 huge exclusive games so far ain’t bad. Compare it to PS5 and X series exclusives for first 6months/year and they doing great.

@rjejr right on I’m in the same boat. Haven’t gotten into the souls/ from soft series. But I know they’re great games. Hoping for that unannounced heavy hitter!

Looks awesome! Is the 4P signifying the 4 player aspect right in the title??

Dam I’m considering it,,, would get Tomodachi and either DK returns or Advance Wars. I pretty much either already have all the 1st party tiles I want, or feel the games are so old they should be discounted beyond $10 which they do happen to be from time to time …

Also today is a big boycott spending day, so it’s a good time to NOT buy anything in the US (except local)

@AstroTheGamosian ah yea I hear that! Feel the same about the DK bonanza dlc events. Too much work! Tho it’s fun

@rjejr agreed! Duskbloods and at least one other exclusive would be great.

Not too surprised! Tho it’s a bummer, this isn’t new for Nintendo they like to keep us waiting…. And to be fair they have laid out their 1st party releases thru April now with 1 major release per month. We know Fire Emblem, Yoshi and Splatoon (likely) are also this year so enough is known. They’ll drop the big one a bit later in the year….

@AstroTheGamosian nice nice I hope you enjoy it when you do (did) give it a whirl! I unlocked all the items pretty quickly , maybe 25min tops and I was consistently losing the events :// despite being so bad, I still had a blast with it!

@AstroTheGamosian you should be able to dive right in I do believe! Tho it wouldnt hurt to do some tutorials first if you haven’t played the first one either!

@AmyTheBrawler you’ve earned everythingggg already?! How long did that take ya?

@AG_Awesome I understand!

@suketoudara I understand!

Too much to play these days. I tend to shy away from addictive endless games for this reason since they detract from my ability to beat other games!

That said Kuukiyomi is more of a brief distraction at least heh

Great news!! Hope they continue to support its glory

@AG_Awesome hmph not sure it’s worth double the price but it is good fun using the mouse action stuff and such. And you know it’s still less than the cost of a movie in the theater! There isn’t huge replay value as a whole so something to consider;)

@Suketoudara wow never heard of it. Thanks for the intel! Did you end up getting ?

@moevot138 totally agree, tho I’m only 1hr in

Nintendo Forecast man has a great breakdown video of why scores are effectively lower for Prime 4. Not just drinking the Koolaid but with some real reasoning behind it. If this came out a few years after 3, I really think it would’ve gotten at least upwards of an 88ish

If anyone’s racing one course for more than 116 hours they have a problem, I’d even go so far as to say after 4 hours, you might need to seek help

I have to misunderstanding tho right?

Dam yea like others have said, no way I can commit to a 100hr game. Why I haven’t event played part 2:/ tho I really want to

Great review and so glad the federation forces didn’t sour the vibe for you Ollie! I’m a bit concerned I’ll be more in Alex’s camp and find them annoying but I’m sure I’ll get over it! Was really hoping the rest of media felt the same and this would land at least a 90 on meta critic but it is what it is. I’m sure I’ll still love nearly every second of it.

9/10 loving it as much as I wished I loved MKWorld. People who write it off for being too simplistic, it’s really not. The main difference between Mario kart and others is you don’t have to hold a button down to accelerate. Kinda nice to have that go automatically. Like many have said there is just so much love put into the game. So much content. So much charm. And there’s plenty to do in single player if you enjoy the gameplay. Even Top Down mode is super fun for me so I’m all in. Now, to get my friends to get it so I can play them is my real challenge….

@SwitchVogel yea that makes sense probably better to just get it out in time rather than wait to have all features ready

I’m loving it. And stoked for a reason to keep ppl engaged. There’s so much to do.

Side note, I find it annoying to see ppl (switchforce) say there was no one playing online on the first freaking day. I played at 1am est last night and had 0 wait time between rounds. I imagine many want to play single player first to figure the dang game out before getting slain online.

Only other review I saw so far was Gamespot, they also gave it a glowing review and an 8/10 score. Seemed more like a 9 based on the words but hey I guess 8 does mean “great”. Looking forward to tomorrow regardless !

Heck yea. More of this.

One of those times when I don’t understand why they didn’t wait just a bit to flesh out the camera compatability first. Similar to Powerwash getting mouse controls at a later date. Tho I guess it’s better/easier to launch along with other consoles release dates.

@SpaceboyScreams ah I see,, that’s impressive! I only spent about 100. I could see playing with someone make it more compelling. The few island visits I had with friends were kind of boring I wish there was more to do together! Collabo dream islands look to fix that a bit! But are there other group tasks you recommend?

Or I think you’re saying the most fun comes from actually sharing an island?

And still people are complaining there aren’t enough first party games 🙃

@JohnnyMind great reminders. Wild how people still don’t feel like Nintendos delivering enough games. The games we’re waiting for will come (3D Mario, Zelda, AC). And we got plentyyy to play in the mean time

@SpaceboyScreams I meannnn 1 thousand hours is a tonnnnn of hours. I’m surprised you weren’t burned out away earlier!

So glad it turned out good! Just finished the original again aka reroll. Such a great game

Call me old school but I prefer exclusives

Miss the days of exclusivity. I know it’s stupid but,,,

@itsapossum lol at your prices suggestion. They’re both worth more than they cost imho

Loving them both! And playing them both on my switch 1 more than 2 for commuting and such and they run just fine:)

@Serpenterror not to try to sway you to get it now while you already have a ton to play but it is kinda the best price I could expect at only $15. Very worth it!

@DashKappei I have both switches but played on switch 1 today and it ran great no issues all up through the first boss. Graphics kinda simple but effective and charming.

Great game I meant to play just a bit but ended up playing 2hrs. Definitely a new crack game.

Can’t wait to check it out tho am generally averse to mega addicting games I gotta give it a whirl. Heard the musics awesome too — same guy behind Citizen Sleeper, and many more cool indies.

@Gavintendo hmm woah quite a difference in score. Could be a very personal kinda enjoyment I guess

Just read the article about the patch which fixed frame rate issues which lead me here. Looks so rad ! Thanks for giving it some shine.

@GoombaJMR so awesome seeing you in here explaining more about the game!! It does appear the reviewer didn’t quite get deep enough as you mentioned a lot was left out. I had read for instance that there is a ton of music variety (as you pointed out, so many songs, awesome!).

From what I’ve seen and heard, amazing job. 7 years of time well spent. Looking forward to picking it up at some point tho my gaming time is so limited these days for what I’d like, this gives me an extra excuse to make more time tho since I’ll be learning 🙇‍♂️

(Ok Vyacheslav, doesn’t detract from his point lol.)

Loving it so far. 2 runs quickly became 5!

Love that they’re doing this! Wish other devs would follow suit….

I really wanted to love it the first go round, love the concept and how many different bits there are going in. Distinct things to enjoy doing,,, such as the arcade! Which btw wasn’t that game already included or is this a new racer?

Overall felt the og was lacking something that I don’t imagine this upgrade provides. But still worth playing I’d say!

@ChromaticDracula indeed

Yessss I loved the first two. Had no idea there were now 4 and love that they made a sw2 version. Great usage for mouse controls!
