Graphite Lab: reads backlash, takes off sunglasses My gaaaaawd, our target audience have hands! They want the Touch! cue The Touch by Stan Bush AKA THAT Transformers song plays

To date, I have now hidden 2931 shovelware items on psprices. So sick of seeing weekly re-re-re-re-releases of 'Diamond', 'Gold', 'Platinum' versions of the same weekly tripe, which takes up so much space in every catergory like Coming Soon, Offers, New Releases etc. That sort of stuff should be banned. So many true indie gems get burried under that trash.

Mario & Luigi: Stop, or my Brother Will Shoot

@Ogbert That M&Ms store is crazy waste of space! Imagine if we got a proper Ninty / Pokemon store there!

Can't wait to play Tom Clancy's Animal's Creed Cry: Racoon Rising

@Not_Soos Excellent points, & the best stance to take on the issues raised. Do love our community here on NL ^_^
Tastless, probably, but then I do think back to Gilbert Godfried and how he got cancelled for telling a 9/11 joke... anyway, I digress. Jack Black was great as Bowser and that was always going to be a job you can't ignore.

Anyone else feel like Jack Black has sold out now? He was supposed to be taking a step back to support his family, but instead he didn't stand up for his buddy Kyle over a comedic response & focused on securing his contracts with Dreamworks etc. I would have much preferred if Jack re-focused on Jablinski Games on YT.

Pah, wake me up when he's completed it using a dance mat, or a pair of Donkey Konga Bongos 😛

@N00BiSH obviously I'm behind with the times ha! Hopefully those who they are marketing towards enjoy, but seems very expensive to me. Mind you, everything with IP attached to apparel is!

Um, they just look as so though someone stuck on some 3D stickers on them.

Of course, LoD is at the top - it's one of the finest action RPGs I've ever played. It seamlessly blends the nostalgic feels of the Dreamcast, PS2 & Cube days; old school cool, but just enough modern touches to keep it feeling fresh.

Still playing on the Wii U to this day, introducing a new generation to Nintendo Land, Wii Party U, Tank Tank Tank, Mario Party 10 & many more. Demise, shemise - the Wii U has a permanent home in my house. Long live underated consoles!

I'm suprised they entered this kind of market, as I didn't think there was mushroom for more competition.

Hoping this will make it to UK at some point soon! Saved up a load of Platinum coins in anticipation of some cool My Nintendo drops.

I'm really hoping for something new and exciting. I'm all for the obvious Kid Icarus Uprising remake, or a new entry in Smash further down the line, but I rather let him cook something fresh that might take advantage of the pending new hardware. Either way, so long as he puts his mental and physical health first, that's what's important.

Oooo excitement! So maybe more than 3-4 games every quarter then?
Besides the obvious inclusion of GC games, I would really like to see the back catlaogue fill up some more. Also, some UI improvements to get rid, or alter the borders and to see the back of the stupid user icon in the top left hand corner.

This is absolutely ludicrous. I'm no longer supporting Microsoft Windows, or USB C products.

Limited time product, only available 24/7 - Please note, may not work in a black hole.

Motion detection you say? Could be interesting to hear the Power Up Shroom noise or Coin noises during those... ahem.... more intimate moments.

I'm sure there's another joke in here somewhere, but I don't want to faucet.

A lot of historical sites / places of interest have a seperate audio guide in an app - Nintendo are missing a trick here as they could have used something like that with NFC and have extra fun things to do like a scavenger hunt to find hidden Luigi, Toad or any other characters to unlock around the museum. This could then unlock extras in app as simple as phone wallpaper, or perhaps a token to use at a gatcha machine etc.

Oh dear, they've run out of plastic and ROMs?

We will have to be patient as we're unlikley to get confirmation if these are legit or not until at least Feb - March 2025 to coincide with Nintendo's year end. They'll want to sell as many of the OG Switch models as possible this Holiday season.

@iedutu Good plan! I've shelved ToTK too, but mainly because my gaming backlog is too large haha!

Ooo perhaps a sensor for the next Nintendo Fit? I'm glad they are still pushing ahead with new and innovative ways to play games.

@iedutu Same! Although I very much enjoyed LA and its lush visuals, you have to endure the FPS when it cuts in half regularly. I would love to play again, but perhaps with boosted performance on the Switch successor.

@Lizuka Lots of games have secrets & surprises that many people would like to experience for themselves, rather than accidentally come across them in a reveal. Granted, it may not be particularly spoilery plot wise for a title like Zelda, but if you consider the puzzles and the mechanics for completing them, it would be a bit like stumbling across a solution which could potentially negate the enjoyment had in solving it for yourself.

Yesh, classics right here! I love IK+ too, so that's a nice bonus!
Still gutted they canned the new game.

Good luck to them with those NFTs! I bet they'll do really well.

If this indeed a Blooper title, I will go in with low expectations. I'm hoping Nintendo have partnered up with someone else to be honest.

For me, I think there's only a handful of games that don't live up to the original playthrough or the nostalgia. Usually, this is due to QoL features, such as camera angles, or controls, especially in the early 3D games (excluding Mario 64). In my experience, Sonic Adventure was borderline unplayable when revisiting on Dreamcast as the controls seemed widely different now that I've been spoilt to modern controls. Obviously, not completely ruling out some peripheral degradation... and ageing body ha!

@FarTulip What was 'woke' about it? Did some of the characters get your Mother in a twirl, because they weren't sure if they were a boy or a girl?

It's a fairly resource-hungry game, so I'm not surprised.
Doubt Nintendo are that bothered about this coming to future Nintendo hardware - the Pal designs are fairly reminiscent of Pokémon, but are different enough to avoid any unwanted legal attention. The game is also far from being a straightforward Pokémon clone. If you’ve played it, you will know it has elements of survival, building, crafting, resource management & a greater emphasis on exploration. If anything, a little competition will be good for Game Freak – some quality control and a decent game engine will go a long way to improving the latest Pokémon offerings.

I wish the West would take some of the Japanese idealogies in the work place... I also wish we still had Iwata.... I miss him greatly

I think there's a potential for a lot of fun with the sequels: you could have them all being swept away to a board game land like Jumanji, investigate a haunted hotel like in The Shining, or even have a full dedicated golf movie like Happy Gilmore. The possibilities are endless!

Hoping for a Level 5 triple bill with Inazuma Eleven: Victory Road, DecaPolice & Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time making an appearance.

Forgive the ignorance, but this seems like an expensive and potentially worthless reproduction of what is essentially a rom; a quick cash grab that is likley to be blocked by Nintendo.

Still no mention whether Amiibo functionality is included? At this stage, it seems highly unlikely sigh

The problem with these rumours is nobody trusts anybody now, and we're all very tired... 😉

Codename 'Pinch of Salt' might refer to a new Cooking Mama game, and 'complete guess work' might be the new Detective Pikachu game.

For the likes of Pikmin 1 & 2, yes, I think so. I know you're getting two games, but they are basic ports, whereas the majority of the others are reamkes built from the ground up. Paper Mario TYD, Another Code, Metroid all boast huge improvements over the original, so I think it's justified. Now, if Nintendo were to pull a Sony and sell an additional frame boost / upscale for the Switch's successor for each outing, then I would not be impressed.

Even for Lego, this is stupidly overpriced. This really should be in the £79.99 - £129.99 price bracket surely, especially when you compare to RRP & complexity of the Bowser, NES and Question Block sets.

The stress ball is quite a fun inclusion, but the rest is fairly generic. Think I'll stick with the standard release!

A new Donkey Kong Switch Fit game with a banana peripheral for fruit based mini-game shenanigans!

How about the originals then? Just not in Cloud format please. Then perhaps FF VII Remake, but happy to have an emphasis on Cloud in that ^_^

@rjejr brain slug takes over Yes, consolidation is good. Soon we will be one glorious whole.

I still wonder if there are a few end-game surprises Small non-story spoiler alert incoming I like the fact you could re-visit certain mini games at the end to better your score!

Fi will pop around the halfway mark and tell all viewers to take a Wii, sorry, a wee break.

@andyg1412 everything these days is a rip-off... Mario is a rip-off of Sonic, Breath of the Wild was a rip-off of Genshin Impact, Pokemon was a rip-off of Digimon, & Luigi's Mansion a rip-off of Dead Space.

Might be gearing up for the final Splatfest! Crazy to think it's almost been out 2 years....
