Is anyone expecting this to be any good? I think the low expectations aren’t a bad thing

I agree Nintendolife has an unhealthy obsession with the Steam Deck. That said the people who are hating on this console just because they are Nintendo fans are equally sick!

@Old-Red spot on!

just ordered not sold out yet

@jameswarrensaid exactly! Why just on PC and Vita?

from an investment point of view this would be very risky to invest in

I get a feeling all the Metroid amiibo will be reprinted, like what happened with the Zelda ones. Would make sense as it's like printing money for Nintendo with these kinds of amiibo

@NintndoNik spot on! Any other Samus one would be best, dark Samus has been selling cheap for ages, clearly plenty of stock.

They should have included the amiibo really, I don’t think what’s on offer is worth $30 but I would have paid $40 more than normal game if the amiibo was in it.

@BloodNinja you lost my interest when you said Fusion was your least favourite Metroid game, you just sound like you don’t like Metroid at that point!

This is truly great news. Wonder if they will have difficulty levels? The first one got rock hard for me after a few chapters

This feels like it will be fantastic!

This is great news! Anyone who has played the original knows it’s great, need to finish it

Wondering if it’s worth £21.99 now seems more inline with the US price which is good. Is this much bigger than normal ones?

There should be laws where video games become free to the public domain after 20-25 years of release. Look at games like Goldeneye which nobody will profit from anymore, what is the point of just having it hidden from the gaming public forever more? If you are a retro gamer and you buy the original games etc you aren’t likely funding the company who made them. You are funding the second hand market, or worse scalpers!

A short text explanation of the games would be nice, rather than just a list with one picture.

I’m actually having some fun playing these at the moment. I agree the offering is a little stingy but as someone who never had a nes or SNES and grew up on 3D gaming, I appreciate retro games like these.

The former Rare employees are key here! That’s a huge accomplishment getting them on board again, gives hope this could be great.

Not appealing to me just looks like cutscenes melded together with no gameplay

great game one of the first 2d games I ever played, absolutely loved it and just started a new playthrough recently

Enough with these Musou games, let’s have something new and interesting!

@Moistnado mine are fine after logging thousands of hours of play.

I have two in my house, tempted to get a switch lite for one of my little ones!

Please please please let this be true!

@Tyranexx why would it? we love football and it's a great football sim. i don't agree with transactions and gambling to win in games but i'm surprised anyone would not expect fifa to sell well here!

Still really enjoying Snap one of the better Pokémon spin offs for sure, like the original

@dannym2091 even just to have that IP available!

@Ulanda it's been 7 years!

fantasy life/fl2 would be a no brainer on switch, shame Level 5 gave up on the west I love their games

Lol at the title ‘poker pretty girls battle’

Very little confirmed other than remakes this year. Pokémon snap is already out so it seems like you included that just to make the list have another truly new game. Other than that Mario Golf is about it, surely they will announce some at e3 if not you have to wonder what on earth they have been doing past 4 years.

I take offence to the line 'old rare fan' in only 33!

fully deserved loving this game!

loving this game, agree the star ratings are a little random but it's great fun seeing pokemon in this environment looking beautiful.

@E_Gadds_Garage it’s because of all those other games they are making right now..... oh wait

@SalvorHardin that's what annoys me, surely they could make a 2d Metroid fairly easily, hardly going to need the kind of budget that MP4 will have. Why not make one for the Switch? This series is so good that it spawned it's own genre but really we haven't had a new 2d one since Fusion!

Yes of course, it’s much more fun than just looking stuff up on the internet. That said I still buy physical books so am probably considered somewhat of an oddity.

Breath of the Wild 2 of course!

Taking advantage of poor boss design is not cheating. If you have not modded a game in any way or used save states to help you, the developer made the game this way and you beat it fair and square!

Wtf is this bulljive? Seriously is the news at Nintendo this poor these days? What are all the first party studios doing? Thought combining handheld and console divisions would bring a wealth of games, it seems to have had the opposite effect.

Tell you what Nintendo will be busy suing everyone on eBay then, there are always plenty of hacked consoles ready to purchase!

The trilogy on switch would be amazing, disappointed this hasn't happened yet with so many rumours. It's a no brainer at this point as MP4 is clearly 2022 at the earliest!

do you need an official left joy con to play this game? i replaced both of mine a long time ago with hori ones

maybe I should get this one, found MH4 a little too complex for my taste

Will take anything at this point. Feel like Nintendo has really pulled back from it’s phenomenal software on Switch launch. Maybe waiting for Switch 2

did the legs always look so weird in Wind Waker?

9/10 lol about a 6 or 7 let's be honest. It's nice to play it but it's the type of game most people will play max 1-2 hours without buying the extras it's already got dull for me after 3 or 4 attempts.

Makes you wonder why more 3rd parties aren’t busting a gut to get quality games on switch.

It would also be nice if their were laws around franchises. Like if you don’t release a game from said franchise in 10 years someone else can use it. I know this would never happen but it sickens me to see all the Rareware IP being wasted as well as things like F-Zero

I mean they revived battle toads, surely they can revive banjo? I wonder if it is fear that holds them back? I mean Xbox championed Super Lucky’s Tale and that was only a slightly above average platformer, surely they can do a banjo game at least that good! At this point I don’t think people are expecting a sequel as good as the original but it would be nice to have something.

How many articles (inc videos etc) will their be on here today about this? I’ll set the over under at 4.5. Let me know your picks guys! Oh god just also had a thought, they will probably do more articles about this even after today, it’s not over yet!
