@Dpullam Deluxe with all the new content would be totally worth it for you. I bought it at launch and put a solid 50 hours in it. Then didn’t play it for a while and of course started playing again with the new content. It’s added about ten hours so far. I bet I end up putting in another 20-30 hours. I probably have 700 hours on it with the WiiU….

@RainbowStarFlower I am surprised Nintendo didn’t launch a Mario game with the movie….

What F2P games are thriving on Switch? Probably just Fortnight?

@PBNightmare the Vita doesn’t feel like it was made in 2011 or 2012…. It has aged well and still feels like modern tech….

@MontyCircus it’s it’s still fun without the analog triggers. It would be nice, but not that big of a deal….. and for just $9.99? I say take the plunge….

Looks cool.... will keep an eye on this...

Do I want this? YES! Do I need this? No……. I will probably pick this up for grins. I have the first one unplayed on the WiiU.

@Thief or a mobile version…. I think some things could translate well to mobile in the Nintendo catalog…. Or otherwise…. Not that they need to devote a ton of resources, it could just mainly be a way to create brand awareness….

It’s not a huge concern, but I don’t know why the turned off Doctor Mario…. A Mario match three would be cool too. It doesn’t bother me that the are all but abandoning the space tho. That said, I wonder if MK Tour created awareness for the brand and series, hence monster sales…

I am surprised they didn’t coordinate the release of a game with the movie…..

@Matroska I was able to get hits up until about 2016 and even some into 2017….mine broke in late 2016 then had to start over. I could only get a dozen or maybe two dozen on the new system

@CharlieGirl this is exactly what I am expecting…..

@Waluigi451 Barnes & Noble was good too. I think Best Buy also. I wish Nintendo would at least allow use to use friend codes….or somehow allow us to still get hits

@-wc- yeah, I skipped the most recent FE, but got the Kirby remake.

@-wc- I hear ya, but I think this will be good. Strikers, Sports were duds. I think Splatoon 3 is great for those who like franchise, but I didn’t play 2 enough to warrant a purchase of 3. Same with Bayonetta and Pokémon….unless this turns out to be a complete disappointment, I am getting it….

It looks cool, but I am terrible at rhythm games….

This was a good one. One of my first 3ds games

What’s in the Deluxe version?

Probably not going to rush into this bc I have barely played BotW. It’s possible but not likely that I run out and get it anyway. I have too many games in the backlog and I am a bit tighter with $$$$ these days.

@TheBigBlue Nintendo is supposedly spending over a billion in online infrastructure and technology, per financial reports….no details, but I think the future should hold some substantial changes….

I bet I have about $5k on both systems between physical and digital.

@MrHonest with some exceptions like charging full price for ports and others noted above, I think Nintendo generally provides value. I bet this will be worth $70….

I think they could have done a little more with it, like build a world with your coins or something like that, something more robust than what they have. Or added a social element like StreetPass somehow

@Sisilly_G agreed. I am mostly fine this. It’s a good value. It extends the life of the game and I will enjoy, but something is indeed inherently stale…..I kinda like the mini games they have in Tour. Extra characters, cars and tracks from other franchises would be cool, but my guess is that is for another system.

I have the first. Thinking about getting the trilogy….

@victordamazio they did a really good job with it. Too good of a job bc it seems to be at the expense of the console version….I wish MK8D got this kind of love and attention

@Sarkos the Tour tracks are kinda generic tho. Yeah, the scenery is different, but I don’t see them as that entertaining. I would rather see some better ports or new content…,

Very excited about DK Summit….

I am surprised there’s not a new Mario game to go with the movie. It would sell like crazy.

Hopefully this implies that the next generation of Nintendo is capable and not modest improvement like the Switch was to the WiiU.

It is on sale for $10…. Probably worth it for this price….

@rjejr Nintendo sees Mario Kart Tour as a proper entry…. It’s not a bad game, but I hate that it comes at the expense of the console…..

I bet they release a 2d Mario that’s somewhat tied to the movie. They could easily slap that together and it would sell close to 20 million with this massive install base.

@Selim I think MSFT has said they will continue on PS5/Sony for at least five years.

I wonder if the MK series essentially turns into a subscription….

@Vyacheslav333 I see what you are saying… if I were new to Nintendo or the Switch…..I would buy Odyssey and MK8D for sure. Maybe Animal Crossing took that second default purchase….

Glad Pikmin is coming over the summer instead of fall…advance wars, .professor Layton and bayonetta are cool. Not sure about some of the other stuff.

@Serpenterror I love Kirby…. Will probably get this, but I have had my fill of the franchise for a while….

@Uncle_Franklin in terms of hardware, of course. But they were able to resell much of the software, so from that standpoint, they recouped a lot of that.

Considering I am only about five hours into Breath of the Wild and have extensive backlog across several systems, I can wait for some form of a discount….

@SBandy1 Astro’s playroom is so cool. Only issue with it is that I want moar! That said , I love Series X for GamePass and quick resume….

@AlexanderDaniels it just sucks that the Switch never got its own unique MK. DLC is meh.

Some of these games are worth a look for sure. Bit.Trip runner is awesome.

Very easy? Sign me up….I have played games in this genre that are too hard, even on easy mode. I will keep an eye on this for sure.

@Expa0 “ I feel weak and ashamed….” I know the feeling….sometimes restraint feels good. Currently trying to not buy Marvel Midnight Suns

I have mixed emotions about them…. They are dang cool, some of them at least, but I generally think they are a waste of $$$$. Thankfully I never spent over retail but I have $800-$900 worth.

@Switch_Pro it would be cool to race with a Mario Maker version….or an Odyssey version of Bowser, Mario….yeah, it’s kind of silly, but cool.

At this point, I wish MK8D would get more DLC- even if just new characters, costumes and mini games we see in Tour. The new tracks are alright, extend the life of the game a little bit, but not much more than a few hours per expansion pack. Highly doubt they do much else with it until the next system, but I can dream.

I wouldn’t say old but rather dated. Generally ok with graphics, but the loading times are what bother me.

Sparks of Hope was on sale already for $30 after Xmas. I picked it up then, but it will probably drop further.
