I just finished it yesterday with 78% completion. Still plenty to play. Definitely one of my favorite games of all time.

I've been playing this on and off on PC. It would be fun to play this on the go. I'll be getting this.

Since the Switch release, my 3ds is pretty much retired. Wish this was on Switch too. I want to play this, but I'm not sure if I'll want it on the 3ds. So many good games coming up, which ones to buy....

So both crowds will be pleased, 2d Metroid on 3ds, and 3d (presumably) on Switch. I'll probably buy both. Metroid Prime is THE announcement I've been waiting for.

Nintendo is gonna make me go broke this year, too many good games. Never had this problem with the Wii U. Stepping it up!

This will take the Switch well beyond Wii sales no doubt, can't wait 👍

I've been waiting to get this until it was on the switch. Day one purchase for me! I'm excited to finally play this!

Steam has a stream option, but it has to be on your local network. It's definitely got a bit of quality loss and/or lag going from my pc to my laptop. I don't see this working great with the Switch​, but eventually (in several years) streaming​ games might be feasible.

@Tetsuro I can't believe that game was allowed onto the eshop. ugghhhh 🤢

Squaresoft RPGs please!

no thanks

I played a ton and spent money every paycheck, until .... rooted phones were blocked. Jerk move Niantic. I wasn't a GPS spoofer, rooted for other reasons altogether. Plus, Nintendo decided rooted devices can't play Fire Emblem or Mario Run. Frustrating.

@Desy64 Said what needed to be said. 👍The negativity is surprising.

Just want to add some positivity here. Mine is fine. Zero trouble with the Joy Con or Pro Controller. Its been on almost constantly since I bought it. I just say that to encourage people with trouble, get a replacement for detective devices. There are working systems. People without a Switch complaining about the problem? Stop.

It looks like Nintendo has a long term plan with the Switch​ (as opposed to the Wii U). What we can see so far is the hype building up to a holiday season Mario. Smart. It looked foolish for them to skip the 2016 holidays, but now all eyes are on them. There are certainly more surprises coming though. I'm excited to see it unfold.

I've been holding out buying this on Steam or Wii U, hoping for a Switch release. Come on Nintendo, I'll buy this and a new Metroid. 😉

@BigBadJohn Yep I saw two separate ads before Lego Batman yesterday. Good job Nintendo, I don't remember seeing anything about the Wii U as far as ads other than what I searched for myself.

I can't find a Switch in stock, but I went ahead and bought BOTW and a Pro controller. Hope the stock refills soon.

I've helped add to those statistics. But I bet there are many like me who aren't pre-ordering, and aren't waiting in line to buy one launch-day, not buying one from a scalper, but I'll wait until I can just walk into a store and buy it easily. That being said, that is STILL my plan for the NES Mini, still waiting.....

@legendwaker Right there, that's exactly it. Plus, if the Switch was, say, $250, that would put a "needed" price cut on the New 3ds (which has a huge amount of popularity still, ahem, Pokemon)

I've avoided playing this on my iphone (work phone) while I wait for the android version. I'll buy it when it hits in March.

@Maxz I was thinking a project like this is pointless, why waste your time on somthing that can never be released. But as a learning experience, yeah that makes sense. Now take what you've learned and make your own game. 😉

I'd gladly pay for any quality game. Development is work, nothing is free. Either pay up front, or pay by being marketed to through ads (and microtransactions). Expecting something for nothing is ridiculous. I hope Nintendo can shake up the mobile market with this, although there are many other games for around that price already, it's nothing new.

Geez, I'll buy one, but I can wait for stock to come in and stabilize. Patience people.

Its not a Wii U, not a 3ds. Why do we need two screens? I'm fine with one.

Perhaps they were hoping for an Android OS on the Switch to integrate with mobile. I'm guessing it's a proprietary OS as usual.

@KrakenSoup Yeah I was on the fence before the reveal. The new Zelda was definitely being purchased, but if it was the Wii U version or not, that was to be determined. Well looks like it going on the Switch.

The virtual boy looks awesome

Just one question....what is that square button on the left joy-con?

I'm just glad to see Nintendo come out with such a solid effort. I wasn't feeling very optimistic after how the Wii U launch went. When they reavelead the name, I immediately felt the system was off to a bad start.

@abe_hikura Nice! Especially being a portable, I could definitely see Nintendo doing different colors and/or themes with these.

@G-Boy I thought that too. Its like he's trying to say "no I'm fine, nothing's wrong" on a bad day lol

The 3ds systems in my house are used daily, so are the tablets. I don't see the Switch taking away tablet users as much as I see portable gamers getting an awesome device powerful enough to double as a home console, or vise versa. Its Nintendo's niche made even more seperate. Now, what is the next Pokemon title going to look like on that.👍

Super excited, if this things runs like its supposed to, I'm all in. I'm glad they ditched the Wii name and began fresh. This has the potential to be a huge seller if games get released consistently.

@Yorumi Perhaps, but I personally have never bought a new system during the holidays (except for the n64).

It makes a lot of sense for Nintendo to ride out until past Christmas with what they have. Pokemon, Mario Run, Nes mini, will be big sellers. And why try to fight with ad space between ps4 and xbone when the NX isn't releasing until 2017? It would wash out the focus, although waiting until after the holiday smoke has cleared Nintendo will have all eyes and ears on them. I suspect a January announcement, and possibly pushed back release.

I enjoyed it. I wish you could get up and running in the real game that fast. Starting a new Pokemon game is torture at the beginning while it gives you a babies' hand holding session on how to play.

I'm buying one. Sure, I could play any of these games emulated through my PC, but this can be easily transported to different TVs in my house, or to hotels when I go out of town. Great selection of games too.

Love this game, still have the gameboy cart Bring it to my 3ds!

The game still has a BETA feel to it. I've been patiently waiting for more substance....now after dumping cash into it since launch day, my device can't play it because I choose to be rooted. arrggh!

@SuperDude95 If people really wanted to, you can get around the root checks I'm sure. I'm rooted and have no intentions of doing that myself. I'm pretty irritated though. I've been putting my money into the app, now it's useless? Screwed up Niantic. :/

Nintendo is making their move by getting directly in the spotlight during one if the most watched events if the year. Good plan, THEN after getting some attention...NX announcement! (I hope)

I just picked up a new 3ds yesterday in preparation for Sun/Moon (along with a copy of Alpha Sapphire) so getting Victini right off the bat is great!

I may give it play on PC. Doubt I'd get it on Wii U.

new...bad...DIE!

Great remix!

@Gamecubed yep I'm old

I am SO ready for a proper Metroid release. NX title please!

Glad its down. I agree it takes the fun from the game. Play the game the way its intended. I'm doing fairly well, and I haven't used a tracker site. It exciting to have an unexpected Pokemon pop up out of nowhere. If this was a single player game, the "cheating" wouldn't affect anyone but yourself, great, go ahead. But this is worlwide multiplayer. It screws people playing it right.

The rumors may be true, but I hope Nintendo does something bigger with it than the gamepad. Seemed great but rarely used for its strengths. The nx rumors sound big, but could flop if Nintendo handles it wrong.
