Spinball ftw!!!

@stinky_t say whuuuut?

@Skunkfish we know it's you, Benjamin Kistler 😉

No sticks and buttons. Who in the world wants to play like this? Maybe many. Not me though.

The little bits of real-life footage looks quiet boring for grownups. The "speed" of it looks like those one-time-fun battery cars for kids imo. If you have to be 13 to drive, the age of the audience this aimes for seems extremely narrow to me. Might just be the way the trailer is filmed. But honestly: it looks like good idea, not thought through to me.
I hope it will be fun, though!

@Desrever Game Cube disc rot??? Get out of here!

Seriously: my Metallica Ride The Lightning Album on CD bought in 1990 still works perfectly. I'm from Germany. So maybe it's the moisture in your region. Where are you from? Brazil? Vietnam? Essex?

@Bon_Kurei Kids are future customers. TV is the past. Makes sense to me.

@Noid i don't think this s**t sells in Germany. I'm from there and I never hear about that crap. They and up lying around for grabs on tables with cheap discounted shovelware for some poor parents to pick up.

@Burning_Spear doesn't matter. Just tell them you have to swallow a lot of pills to feel better

@SwitchForce who?

@Gavintendo where is your avatar pic taken from?

@Smores500 this! They should at least allow users to rate games.

@KateGray actually hats off for even watching it in the whole. I just want my time back. If someone finds a way to break a game by simple inputs they figured out themselves, fair enough. But going through the code is just lame cheating in my opinion. A lot of work, I have to admit. But just not my understanding of beating a game. They might be good coders later, though. Fair enough for the effort, I guess.

Still, to me it's pointless and boring to watch. I'm old.

@LittleToyTitan did you manage to play them through? I loved all three of them but couldn't beat them until waaay later on in my life. Battle of Olympus still is on my list. It's just too hard. A bad game on hindsight.

@kuliddar no. Covid is okay. It's a short period until humanity can handle it. It's the the dying woods and climate change that should bother us.

@masterLEON tnx!

Sorry: did not read all the comments and kinda scrolled through the article due to getting really late here in GER.
The question is: are the games playable in TATE? thanks for the heads up!

Price-wise it's a vr-game w/o VR... it is really boring an short. But a bit nice.

@Ohokaysure no. To boring, to short. I would give the game a 4/10. There is only dialogue an not much meat to the bone. Actually it is a three 😜

Owning the WiiU version, I still don't see me buying this. It's just again a bit too less effort.

@Dezzy what? Why? I think it was brilliant!

14/20. Should have taken a bit more time for the quiz. Which is brilliant, by the way! Thanks, Gavin!

@johnvboy true.

And now it all gets srewed up in China. By slaves. What a mess.

@KateGray hah!

Charcoal. That was mine. On release. Me and my mom went shopping. And there it was: a big pile of (as far as knew) to be sold out consoles. My parents never had deep pockets but she understood straight away: I told her that this system was officially not available in Germany at that time without pre-order and I would pay her back by selling my 3 months old Playstation. And My mom said ok and paid for it.
One of the best days in life. I still remember sitting in the train back to our village feeling, smelling and examining the box of this dear friend to be. I love you, mom

@Retro_Player_77 is there a way to use stadia on Switch? Or did you use your phone? Thx and Merry Christmas everyone!

@Dpullam could you share a link? I wanna watch it from a good YouTuber as well. Cheers!

Does it work for people already using glasses without making contacts mandatory? Cheers!

They should ask the real question: more BOTW or a more classic Zelda.

But even that would be hard to answer for me.

@EngineerMario I'm sorry, I don't understand your comment. It's been out for a month?

@EngineerMario in Germany the price went even down to 80 euros... it's bad planning by big N, then 😐

Happy Birthday Nintendolife!! I stumbled across your existence around the release of the switch (I'm from Germany btw.) and am hooked since then. The good articles, the very nice team, very well produced vids (special thanks to Alex) and a splendid community are the reason that I visit you multiple times a day since then! Thank you so much for the hard work and stay as you are! All the best from Germany!

The answer possibilities of the ninth question are super nerd-well chosen! Best question of the quiz! 6/12, btw. I stink.

Gabriel Knight 2 would be great on Switch! (As far as I can remember it...)

@TimboSlice yes! The xbox live quizzes were awesome!

@JayJ then try to love it now! Try to stay you as long as possible 🙃

@blockfight great work! I'm looking for tunnels right now and some workaround to get LED-headlights on the Kart without being too heavy. Someone got an idea?

@blockfight that's half the fun, right? 😁

I must say, I suffer from connection issues between Kart and Switch (day-one-version). Even in the same room I get 3 bars tops and never a really stable picture. Is it my console? Or does anybody else have the issue? Thanks for replies!

Edit: in the end it works quiet well (Maybe my first track was just too big and I have thick walls). And it's a lot of fun!! After day one with it, I recommend it 😀

@AndyRogan maximum time is capped at 399. At least for me (not cheating). Is that another cheat? Or a typo of yours?

I would've hid in the pipe for the rest of my time.... (coward )

I do hope in 2021 it will be rebooted as Mario 36 and so on! It's great!

@SwitchForce Hey, I bet you know what are you talking about. It's just to aggressive and to long to read it through... maybe you should consider to make your point first and then start explaining?

@Ratking oi, a friend of mine had the very same thing. I gave him one of the small devices that act like a dock and it works fine. It's about 25 euro as far as I remember. Never bricked mine or his console. If you need a link, just ask. I dunno if I can post it here. Cheers

@Beermonkey hope there was no personal stuff lost (pictures etc.) and glad to sense no one was hurt. Fire can be so heavy on people's souls. Hope you're doing fine! Best wishes from Germany!

My personal opinion: I LOVE the idea. But I cannot imagine it's working out. It will get boring after 20 hours in for the most kids, I guess. The freedom in your apartment or in parks etc is limited. I don't know what they will pull off software-wise. But it has to be a lot to keep children playing.

But I still love it.

Edit: what I am looking the most forward to is Alex' review on this. Please penetrate your friends with this and share it with us, mate 😁

@Multi hi, it only makes sense to build them on the fly and in turns, if not played in single player. As far a I got it, you have to make one "creating" drive through the gates and make the corners you want to in between. Since the layout of that course will not fit any other surroundings but your apartment, sharing does not make sense. Cheers!

@Alucard83 i got the same problem with the stick. I bet, they put the option in. Or at least patch it in. I played it through back in the days but trying to replay it a few years ago, the camera really stopped me from doing so. I just couldn't enjoy it.

@nessisonett let's hope! Gonna need the second switch for that Mario Kart game!
